See "Help 🡒 Contents 🡒 Mail Composing 🡒 Formatting emails (in Plain
Text and HTML) 🡒 Enabling HTML format": Go to "Edit 🡒 Preferences
🡒 Composer Preferences 🡒 General 🡒 Format messages in HTML".

"Edit 🡒 Preferences 🡒 Mail Preferences 🡒 General 🡒 Delete Mail
🡒 Empty trash folders".

If you refer to that additional virtual "[Gmail]" folder in the tree in
the folder pane, that's one of the many custom non-standard things that
Google decided to put into their mail account product.
