R. There are some details to get the special [Gmail] sub-folders

--regextrans2 "s,^Sent$,[Gmail]/Sent Mail," \

The same goes for the "All Mail" archive pseudo-folder.
If you're using a different language in Gmail you might adapt
this example with the folder name translated, an example in French:
imapsync ...
--folder 'INBOX.Messages envoy&AOk-s' \
--regextrans2 "s,^Messages envoy&AOk-s$,[Gmail]/Messages envoy&AOk-s," \
The --addheader option is there because Sent folder messages
sometimes lack the "Message-Id" header needed by imapsync
when --useuid is not used. So option --addheader adds a "Message-Id" header.
You can remove --folder "INBOX.Sent" in the example in case
you want to sync all folders, the --regextrans2 option will
still apply only on "INBOX.Sent" folder.
The "All Mail" archive pseudo-folder should be updated automaticaly.
--exitwhenover option is here to avoid locking when transfers
exceed maximum limit.

You can select folders exported to imap within the gmail preferences,
unselect all "System labels".
