Although I haven't looked closely at this, I think the same is going to
happen with any desktop MUA, given that Gmail implements this via its
own non-standard "magic". If they used IMAP labels it could perhaps be
made to work, but I don't think they do.

In practice, I use Evo and the Web interface for different things, e.g.
Gmail doesn't handle mailing lists well.
