Hello there, i use gmail and i have setup mail to work with it. My question is, when i send an email from gmail.com from a different computer it sends a copy to my inbox when i use the mail.app is there anyway to place my sent mail in the sent folder and not in my inbox folder? thanks!

Configure Gmail to sync with Mail over IMAP instead of POP. Simply go to teh gmail settings and switch it over.
 
You can also make a rule in Mail.app that sends all messages from your email address to your sent folder.
