It's the default for these mailboxes.

You can certainly move any messages in the mailbox. There shouldn't be 
any messages in this mailbox in any case since they cannot synchronize 
with the server. In order to remove the “failed” state then I 
**think** it would work to delete it, but I haven't tested this. It 
sounds strange, but in IMAP there is a difference between hierarchy-only 
mailbox and hierarchy-mailbox which can contain messages. Essentially 
you can create an IMAP mailbox named `A/B/C` and then `A` and `A/B` 
still don't really need to exist. Right now, MailMate tries to put 
`[Gmail]` into existence and this fails (because the server does not 
allow it).
