It certainly behaves like it does.  I can make folders in Gmail using
Evolution, and they appear like folders on the web interface.  I
thought I'd also done it the other way around in the past, but I can't
remember.

To be honest, a lot of email clients don't actually make folders (well
not in the way we think of them).  Everything is stored inside the mail
root, but there's an index file that determines where everything fits
into your interface.
