That's more of an iPhone question than anything else... unfortunately,
as far as I know, the answer is essentially what Michelle told you.
You have to use the iPhone to explicitly remove the messages from the
server. Unfortunately, according to what I've found with a few Google
searches, that's currently impossible. For example, these folks:
http://blogs.freshlogicstudios.com/Posts/View.aspx?Id=44a01293-3b32-4ee0-b23c-fac99348e1cd
have created an extra utility just for expunging messages. Of course,
the utility has to be run from a desktop (Windows) machine.
An alternative is to simply convince mutt to hide these messages from
you, which you can do using limit. But it might be simpler to simply
have mutt do an automatic sync whenever it enters a mailbox, e.g.:
folder-hook . 'exec sync-mailbox'
