Topic: Why the fuck does Google call only the spam folder's delete "Delete forever"?

The other views simply say "Delete". Does that mean that they are not really deleted? Just "temporarily"? If so, what exactly does that mean?

(I have deleted the e-mails from all "views"/sections/pages that are accessible from the Gmail Web interface.)

Even after you permanently delete a sent or received email, it is still on their servers. Email Google, they'll confirm this.
It makes no difference how you delete emails.

What the fuck? How do I get them deleted completely?

I'm assuming you're sending CP over e-mails, in which case you're fucked.

Stop assuming retarded things.

The only plausible method would be to have a written court document forcing Google to remove your emails.

Good luck, have fun - they'll be deleted in a couple of years or more.

Deleting a message just moves it to the Trash folder which wouldn't make much sense with spam.
