Unable to move emails to trash on left swipe

I just wanted to move my emails to the trash when I left swipe, but the only option is to archive them. I’ve tried changing it in mail, but trash is the only option that doesn’t exist (as opposed to flag, archive, etc.) In iOS 13 and before, Passwords & Accounts existed and you could change this in advanced settings, but I’m unable to figure out how to fix it in iOS 14?
