Q: swiping emails archives not deletes

I have a iPhone 4S on the Verizon network. Whenever I try to swipe emails to delete them, instead of showing a red box saying 'delete' it shows a red box saying 'archive'. Is there a way I can change this so it will delete emails, not archive them?

Sounds like you may be using gmail. If so go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>tap your gmail account> turn Archive Messages to OFF. See http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4207
