It seems to me they do not honour the "delete" request when collecting
from IMAP because in my case they certainly go from INBOX but are
retained in ALL MAIL.

I've found that switching fetchmail from pop3 access to imap access,
restores that delete function. However that may be server dependent, my
server at shentel.net is dovecot. Very few problems.

Could you do me a favour and logon to the gmail web interface and see if your mails are still in "ALL MAIL", perhaps it is just me ?
