[Users] Crowded Inbox

Hi,

I am trying to move primarily to Claws from mutt. I had Gmail set up for
POP3 download by fetchmail.

My Imap acct for Gmail imitates the folder tree exactly. (Attachment
inline below extracted from folderlist.xml.) I see this draft in
[Imap]/Drafts as I type.

However, on Google I have got filtered/labeled mail completely into
categories other than "Primary." I get triplicate listings in Gmail, in
the subfolder corresponding to the label, in Inbox and in "All Mail," a
top level folder. I assume the triplicate has something to do with
POP3 access.  

I like the clean Inbox category where I can see what else is showing up
clearly and just not filter high priority senders.

However, I can't find a way to keep labeled/filtered mail from being
listed in Inbox under Claws.

Would like some thoughts on the matter or the point I am missing.

Folder list (Commerce, Debian, DebianForums, Ham & List are my
labels/folders. The rest is default Gmail with POP3 and Imap access.)
