Do those two "Inbox" named folders have *different* icons next to it?

I suspect yes. Which means, the one with the special Icon is the Inbox
as advertised by your IMAP server, being displayed here (right next to
your account node) by Evolution. The other one with a plain icon
probably is your physical Inbox folder, which in this case happens to
live in your IMAP namespace.

FWIW, the Inbox often is in a separate place, like 
/var/spool/mail/$USER, whereas all other mail folders are inside the
users $HOME.
