Hi Harry, First, the All Mail thing from GMail is just there, it's something from Google and, as far as I can tell, you can't do anything about it. So, I just ignore its existence.
Now, for your other issue, if the GMail Mailbox/InBox is selected when you create a new mailbox, the folder will be placed in the top level of that mailbox unless you tell it otherwise upon creation. Each mailbox is attached to each mail account. That is, your GMail InBox is attached to the GMail account and any other folders you've created are also attached to that account. Mailboxes must be attached to an account, they cannot just sit there within the Mail app without being referenced as part of a specific account. I guess, when you set it up, you could tell the folder to be located at the top level, the same as your InBoxes. I've never done that but I would assume it's possible. When you create a Mailbox, in the dialog that appears, there is a pop-up menu that is for the location of the given mailbox. With respect to mail not being placed where it's supposed to, that's either a problem with the initial setup of the rule or sometimes even with the way senders address there messages. I've noticed that sometimes people have specific people in their To field and MacVisionaries in the cc and various other interesting combinations. What I did for this is, in my rule, specified that the "To" c"Contains" "MacVisionaries" and that the "cc" "Contains" "MacVisionaries". So, in this case, you would want to match "Any" of the rules (as opposed to "All"), and by simply asking if either "contains" "MacVisionaries", it usually got around any of the differences in how others addressed their messages. HTH. Later...
