What I do is 'B <backspace>' in the Summary buffer (reading mail w/
IMAP). The online help is as follows:

,----
| B <backspace> runs the command gnus-summary-delete-article
|    which is an interactive compiled Lisp function in `gnus-sum'.
| It is bound to B <backspace>, B <delete>, B DEL, <menu-bar> <article> 
<backend> <delete article>.
| (gnus-summary-delete-article &optional N)
| 
| Delete the N next (mail) articles.
| This command actually deletes articles.        This is not a marking
| command.  The article will disappear forever from your life, never to
| return.
| 
| If N is negative, delete backwards.
| If N is nil and articles have been marked with the process mark,
| delete these instead.
| 
| If `gnus-novice-user' is non-nil you will be asked for
| confirmation before the articles are deleted.
| 
`----

It doesn't seem to actually get rid of the message but I don't see it
in the Summary buffer any more (unless I do a "/ o", or some such). HTH.
