May be you could tell Gmail that sent mail get stored in Inbox mail.  But it's strange because I write sometimes in the webmail and I received it in Evolution in Inbox!!  Other way may be, is pick all sent messages and move it together to Inbox at the end of the day.  So Evolution downloads them as received and there you can do what you want with them.
About Imap I can say anything, I never used it, I don't know much about it.

Hope this could help

Sylvia
