For as much as Apple and Google are in bed together, the way the iPhone sets up gmail by default kinda sucks. So here’s a better way (from Google):

Then go to “Settings” – “Mail Contacts and Calendars” – “your-account@gmail.com” – “Advanced” and under “Mailbox Behaviors” change the following:
Drafts Mailbox: On the Server – “Drafts”
Sent Mailbox: On the Server – “Sent Mail”
Deleted Mailbox: On My iPhone – “Trash”
The Deleted Mailbox seems strange, but they recommend it here: http://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=78892# I had it on the gmail server until I decided I better double check before posting online, and it seemed to be working just fine.
