An update: according to google
http://support.google.com/mail/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=78892
there is no need to save sent mail to teh sent mail imap folder when using the 
gmail smtp server to send messages.  However, I sometimes need to use a 
different smtp server due to a firewall issue.  so trying 
IMAP-FCC: [Gmail]/Sent Mail
doesn't work for me, unfortunately, not sure what I am doing wrong.
