Ah!!!!!

Set Auto-Expunge to: Do not automatically expunge messages

Set When a message is expunged from the last visible IMAP folder: to: Archive the message

Right?

This didnt work for me. It is still moving the deleted mails to the trash folder online even though I made those changes.
Also, I have my gmail setup to use a different address for responses, but this is not being done correctly either. Any ideas???

Same for me! I've got it set to go to [GMail/All Items], but it never actually does that. It marks it as read almost instantly, but never moves. What am I doing wrong?

Psych. Apparently the auto-expunge comment needs to be on. Now it works. I feel dumb.

I set the Gmail account setting to "Immediately expunge messages when I mark them deleted in IMAP" and it seems to archive messages now.

On Gmail through the web, enable Advanced IMAP options in Gmail Labs, then under Forwarding and POP/IMAP, under IMAP access, change the Auto-expunge setting to "Immediately expunge messages when I mark them deleted in IMAP."
