Hmm...  Works for me.

I only might suggest you to double check that you do not synchronize
your ‘[Gmail]/All mail’.

(I believe you do not expect that a letter that you removed from one
local folder (e. g. ‘INBOX’) but kept in another (e. g. ‘[Gmail]/All
mail’) should magically disappear from all of them — I would say that
such a behaviour is heavily broken.)
