Two things... to apply the same labels in the new account you needed to use an IMAP client to download and upload them like directories. POP3 has no knowledge of the label system, which is why they are all in inbox.
Sent mail isn't a proper label, that you can apply to things. It's basically a search for "from:me"... it automatically contains messages where it recognizes you as the from address. Go to the "Send Mail As" setting and add the address to that and it will show up in sent mail automatically.
