In general, an iPad doesn't have a trash at all. Since you don't have access to the file system, files cannot be user-modified or deleted, so a trash is not necessary. Further, apps will generaly take care of their own cache and data usage, so user interventions doesn't generally occur. If you are talking about mail, try using the usual delete functions while navigating the Trash folder and you should permanently delete the message.
Hope this helps,

Hi! Well, I'm happy to inform you that there is no trash can on the iPad. Apple is trying hard to simplify the usage as much as they can, hence no trash can to be found.

When you hold down on the app icon and it shakes with a little x in the left corner, that deletes an app. Once an item is deleted that is it. There is no trash can like on a mac.
