I have 2 Gmail accounts hooked up to Mail. One is an @gmail.com account, the other is a business account run through Google Apps.
When I send an email from the business account, the email always shows up in my Inbox as if the message was sent to me.
The "Automatically Cc or Bcc me" checkbox is unchecked in the "Composing" section of the Preferences.
If I send the email from the gmail website, no problems occur. If I send an email from my "@gmail.com" address the problem does not occur.
Anyone have any advice?

This is considered by some to be a gmail bug. The solution is:
In my experience it is not necessary to fully comply with Google's recommended settings for IMAP accounts, namely that you should uncheck the box to "Store sent messages on the server." I very much want to leave this selected, and having it selected is now working fine for me, now that I have added the "-me" exception to the misbehaving filter.
