For the system info I was mostly thinking about how you would download 
your inbox and delete it.  It looks like your mail is on gmail and you are 
accessing it by imap.  Or do you also have a local inbox?  either way, you 
are supposed to be able to select all messages in the folder (;a) then 
save to some folder (apply, save = as).  That will put the files on your 
Ubuntu machine for sure.  Then use scp to transfer files.

For your problem with "sent messages keep going to my inbox", try setting 
this variable to the folder to which you would like to save those 
messages:

default-fcc=

Good.  It made my life a *lot* easier when I found it.
