How can I NOT have my outgoing emails piling up on gmail?

I use Thunderbird with gmail via POP3, IMAP. I just want to recover emails, download them to my PC and remove them from gmail. This part works fine. But with the TB and my previous Outlook 2000, my outgoing emails end up staying on the gmail server. I see no control in TB, or the gmail site say 'remove outgoing e-mail messages after sending' as is done at the front desk.
Is it just the nature of the e-mail systems?
Thus, every couple months I manually log on gmail and delete all the. I don't like my emails are available for a hacker.
Are there settings to achieve this?
Thank you.

Is there is any option in Gmail settings, then I'm afraid that Gmail did this by default when using their SMTP server (i.e. Server SMTP of Gmail stores a copy of your mail in your sent folder of Gmail).
So there is probably nothing else, you can do other than to use another SMTP server, for example provided by your ISP.
