Are you using mutt as an IMAP client to Gmail, or are you
pulling the mail to your machine and then running mutt on that?

In the first case, Gmail folders should show up as mutt folders.

In the second case, you need to do the sorting yourself.
Programs to filter mail at delivery time include procmail and
mailfilter; programs to sort on the IMAP server include
imapfilter and sieve.  All of these have Debian packages.
