how to enable delete option in apple mail swiping

Hi,


I'm trying to enable the delete swipe option in Apple mail. Currently it only gives me the option to archive the email.

I realize there must be an option somewhere to enable this.


All replies are appreciated. ✌-1F3FB;

Hi,


Go to Settings ☞ tap on Mail, Contacts, Calendars ☞ select the email-account.

Tap on the Account tap on Advanced.

In the second section called Move Discarded messages into change Archive to Delete.
The messages will then be deleted instead of archived.
