How do i delete messages?

I delete the messages in my inbox becouse i don't like backlog. But the messages I delete go into the trash and it's not deleting them, they just stay there and it's getting bigger. Is they a way to delete the messages compltely or is there a waiting peroid then there deleted, like hotmail?

Deleting messages will move them to the trash folder in case you accidentally delete a message. To delete them permanently go to your trash folder check the select box on the left and then press "delete selected messages". If you want to empty your trash folder press "check all" and then "delete selected messages".
If you accidentally deleted a message you wanted to keep you can again check the select box and then press " undelete selected messages" and they will be moved back to your inbox.

I purposely deleted a message just for this screenshot, sorry squibblings =P
