Configuring Evolution for Gmail

All - 

I've set up Evolution to read my Gmail account via IMAP. Everything is
working swimmingly, except I have multiple copies of some folders. 

Using the GMail Labs add-on that allows one to select which labels
(Gmail's idea of folders) are downloaded to my machine I have eliminated
most of the folders from appearing. However, I still have Drafts, Junk,
Sent, and Trash.

The problem is that I have three Junk folders ("Junk" (with a glyhp I
can't make out for an icon), "Junk" (with a folder glyhp icon), and
"Junk E-mail" (also with a folder icon).

I have "Sent" and "Sent items", and I have "Trash" (folder icon) and
"Trash" (trash can icon).

My hope is that some of these can be eliminate either by just deleting
them, or by some configuration inside preferences that I haven't
discovered yet.

Any advice would be appreciated,

Thanks,
Mark
