    You cannot with an Exchange account. Exchange is designed so that when you delete something on the phone, it is synced to the Exchange server, so it deletes there as well. It would also show deleted on a computer that you are accessing mail from the Exchange server as well. The whole purpose of the Exchange is to keep everything looking the same, in sync.
