In the case of Evolution "delete" really means "mark for"  or "mark as"
deleted.
Expunge means to *really delete* the message off the system. FYI,
Evolution uses
virtual folders, of which the trash bin is one.

When you "delete" a message in Evolution it's actually "marked for
deletion". The process
is only *truly* complete when you expunge it (delete it by _emptying_
your trash bin).
I hope I've made a sufficiently clear explanation.
