If you are using a tablet e-mail client, I'd suggest you to give it a 1 or 2 minutes before logging off. The application needs to give the e-mail server the commands, if you close it before, the server won't get the order to delete the e-mail and they will remain on their original location.
"press" and hold a picture, either the trash icon will appear letting you drag the picture to it, or a context menu will show up with Delete as one of the options.
when you delete the email messages, it does not gets actually deleted because it remains in the trash box. the one and only process to delete it forever is to clean your trash box
Hi,
As mariolands said, there is no trash bin because Apple wants to make the device as simple as possible for users to use. Actually, if you think about it, a trash/recycle bin is not even necessary as the user does not need to worry about things like that.
If you were wondering how to remove apps, then you have to hold any app icon on the home screen for several seconds until they start wiggling. As they begin to wiggle, you should see a cross in the top corner of each app. To delete an app, just tap on the "x" and it should be deleted.
As for the mail, once you're in the mail app, just swipe right on the message you want to delete and an option to delete will appear on the right. Alternatively, you can tap Edit at the top right and select the message(s) you want to delete.
Hope this helps,

In 1982, when Apple created the Apple Lisa user interface, they implemented what they called the Trash Can.
The trash can is essentially purgatory for files a user no longer
wants. Once sent to the trash, the user has the option of restoring the
file back to its original place, or annihilating it completely from the
computer’s hard drive. Unless there is a backup of a user’s system from
before the file was sent to the trash, there is essentially no way of
restoring that file once the trash has been emptied.
This metaphor was carried over to Windows 95
in the form of a Recycle Bin. Perched on the desktop of countless
millions of averages users was this bin which, when empty, looked
empty, and when it contained files, looked full.
There is safety in the Trash Can metaphor. I know that in order to
really delete a file from my system, either on Windows or on Mac OS X,
I really have to work at it. Yes, there are times when files are
accidentally deleted, but for the most part if I realize my mistake
before I empty my Trash, I know the file is safe.
