Get away from the web interface. Install Icedove/Evolution/Mutt and use

I use Evolution and Mutt with Google's IMAP interface. It works nicely
but I've noticed this quirky behavior when using a client via IMAP. My
messages appear in multiple places at the same time.
For instance I'll have new mail display in Inbox, All Mail (where
*everything* is), and then in the individual labels (or folders).
Pretty funky. At first I just thought it was an Evolution thing,
but I've tested it with Outlook 2003, Thunderbird, and Mutt. I am
assuming that each message isn't actually being delivered three times
and just listed in different folders within the account.
Is there a way for this to be disabled and subsequently have
messages be displayed in their specific folders...or is this just how
Gmail works?
Although the powerful filtering abilities of Pine/Alpine was one of the
things that attracted me to it that was over a decade ago, today I let
gmail do the filtering...
'All Mail' - I'm not subscribed to this (imap?) folder and by its nature
there is not a lot you do to keep mail out of it.
'Inbox' - one of the options when creating a gmail filter (to apply a
tag/move to imap folder) is for the message to be archived (i.e. skip the
Inbox) - I'm thinking this is the option you are looking for?
