I believe that Gmail exposes those types of things to IMAP clients as
IMAP folders with funny names. (If you see these messages in Sup's
inbox, then I am wrong about that.)

So the easiest approach to duplicate them in Sup is add each source by
hand as sup-add, and have Sup auto-apply labels when it sees new
messages in those "folders". (And auto-archive them.)

Unfortunately Sup's stupid URI syntax for sources combines very poorly
with Gmail's names for these types of folders, so you'll have to do
something horrible like:

  sup-add imaps://imap.gmail.com/%5BGmail%5D%2FSent+Mail
  sup-add imaps://imap.gmail.com/%5BGmail%5D%2Flabelname

etc., with the appropriate arguments to sup-add for auto-archiving and
auto-applying labels.

Anyone more familiar with Gmail+Sup, please correct me if I'm wrong.
