Delete emails when using forwarding from Gmail
Allow Proton mail to delete emails in Gmail in addition to just forwarding. Hopefully this isn't something google is preventing. It is available when forwarding Gmail to other providers.

Please full IMAP functions like K-9 with Android or Thunderbird with Windows do it

Just signed up today, BUT, I can't continue to use Proton if I have to go back to Gmail to delete the emails forwarded from Gmail in Proton, then go to Gmail and delete them again. I want a setting in Proton, or a feature, that deletes the Gmail message when I delete the forwarded Gmail message from my Proton Inbox.

Mail forwarding should have an option to allow for the automatic removal of messages that have been successfully forwarded from the Proton Mail inbox.
It should be possible for the user to indicate that a forwarded message should be either deleted or moved to Trash.

If we cannot get this feature natively, it would be helpful to maybe include the following steps in the Guide pages as an alternative way to do this:
Gmail settings -> Forwarding -> Add Proton email -> Set to forward all email and delete Gmail copy.
You can then disconnect the Proton easy switch.
