Gmail. Outlook 2003 and IMAP

Now, when I got Outlook to poll for mail it retrieved a heap of messages
dating
back some time. Not sure where they came from as I had deleted all message
in
Gmail before I started.
Are threse in a "folder" called "All Mail"? Gmail keeps ahistory of
themessages you've received in this special folder. The only way to empty it
is from the gmail server.
I then tried creating and replicating my existing message base but I
couldn't
get it to work. I tried creating labels in Gmail but they didn't replicate
in
Outlook.
Non-default folders in Outlook replicate as labels in gmail.
All I am trying to do is to configure Outlook so that when I log onto my
desktop
or onto my laptop that all message bases are the same. ie. I send a message
from
the laptop that message also appears in the Send folder on the desktop
computer.
Outlook 2003 requires the use of a rule to copy outgoing messages to the Sent
Items folder of the gmail message store. Otherwise they'll be placed in the
Sent Itemsfolder of the local folder set.
