Hello
I have switched using gmail via its imap interface. It is my
understanding that gmail does not really provide imap
support.
So deleting a message means only to remove a label, the
message still continues in [Gmail]/All Mail.
Gmail recommends to move the message into the [Gmail]/Trash
folder.
Does gnus provide any solution?
Thanks
Uwe Brauer

But how is this supposed to work?
I use E to mark a message for expire and then B e
but where do I specify the target folder?
I thought of modifying `gnus-summary-move-article' so that
it moves an article to that [Gmail]/Trash

I bind 'd' to:
(defun gnus-move-to-trash ()
(interactive)
(gnus-summary-move-article nil trash-newsgroup))
(setq trash-newsgroup "nnimap+[name-for-mail-server]:Trash")
So that's not expiring to trash, but putting them there promptly.

It seems Greg's solution is good for you, but nevetheless, I will add
some explanations:

Enter group parameters with (G-c) when having the cursor over the group
name in the *Groups* buffer. There are two interesting options:
1. Expire wait: I guess you want "inmediate" for moving the articles as
soon you exit the group.
2. Expiry target: where to move expired articles. This is the name of
your trash folder.
