Q: Swipe to trash email function

When I swipe my email I do not get the Trash option, instead I get the Archive option. Everyone else I have talked to has the Trash option. How do I get it?

iPhone 5, iOS 7

It is. I tried to go to settings and turn off the archive feature but that feature is no longer available since I upgraded to iOS 7.

I figured it out:

Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Gmail Account > Account > Advanced > Move Discarded Messages Into: Check Deleted Mailbox

Toggle back to Account and click on Done.
