Since you'll have 1,000 megabytes of storage, we recommend that you
archive rather than delete. Once you delete a message, it's gone for
good. By archiving messages and conversations, you can take advantage
of Gmail's powerful search functionality to retrieve any message
you've sent or received.

Your messages are grouped together as conversations. If you delete
from your inbox, you will be deleting an entire conversation, not just
one message. To delete a conversation from the inbox, select the box
and choose 'Move to Trash' from the drop-down menu.

To delete a single message, open the conversation. Expand the specific
message that you would like to delete. Click 'More options.' Once the
options are visible, click 'Trash this message'.

Your deleted conversations are moved to the trash. Once conversations
are in the trash, you can delete them by going to the 'More actions'
drop-down menu and choosing 'Delete forever.'

Should you mistakenly put a message or conversation in the trash, just
click on 'Trash' from your inbox, select the message or conversation
and then click Move to Inbox.

The Gmail system will automatically empty your trash and spam every 30 days.
