Q: Archiving gmail e-mails on MacBook Pro vs iPhone: Same action, different results

The core issue:

The same action yields different results.

 

The details:

First, I'm on my laptop looking at an e-mail sent to my gmail account and want to archive it so I hit archive and it goes to the archive folder; Second, I'm on my iPhone looking at an e-mail sent to my gmail account and want to archive it so I hit archive and it goes to the "All Mail" folder in my gmail account. The second part doesn't make me happy because it doesn't make any sense. In other words the same action results in two different results.

 

Ideal solution:

Please tell me how to make the archive icon on my iPhone act like its righteous twin does on my MacBook Pro.

 

Thanks!

iPhone 4, iOS 5.1.1
