Hi, Just before that item, there should be an "Automatically" checkbox. That should be unchecked. Although, with your further explanation, I believe that what you're seeing is actually just a result of the way that Google and G Mail deal with Google's pseudo iMap mail protocol. G Mail uses labels instead of real folders and Apple Mail and other mail clients have to work things out in an out of the box way to make G Mail work properly within their mail clients. The All Mail item within your Mail app is kind of a Smart Mailbox, in that, it is not really a duplicate of your mail messages, it is actually the main repository of your G Mail messages. Apple Mail coordinates the labels assigned by G Mail and places a copy into your InBox or other mailbox that's on your machine. Overall, the amount of space used up is very minimal. You don't want to get rid of the messages in your All Mail mailbox, as they would also get rid of them from other mailboxes. I believe that there is a method by which you can tell the All Mail to not be visible, but I can't recall if that became unnecessary or if it causes problems. I'll have to look it up again. So, in a nutshell, I wouldn't be concerned.
HTH. Later...

I went to the composing tab in system preferences as you suggested. There is a button indicating how messages are to be sent to me either by CC or BCC. There is no option to uncheck this box. How do I get this to be unchecked?
