From the writer guidelines I have two pieces of information:
Queries (for adventures and articles that require them) are to be emailed to gatekeeper@paizo.com.
Manuscripts are to be emailed to dungeon@paizo.com.
Campaign Workbook submissions, as they are manuscripts and not queries, are to be emailed to dungeon@paizo.com.
Is this correct or incorrect?

This one is definitely correct.
Manuscripts are to be emailed to dungeon@paizo.com.
I've never had a manuscript, so this is all based on what I've seen. The editor who contacts you to request the manuscript might ask you to send it directly to him. Otherwise, you would send it to the address you list.
Campaign Workbook submissions, as they are manuscripts and not queries, are to be emailed to dungeon@paizo.com.
These also go to gatekeeper.
I just submitted a campaign workbook this morning through the dungeon@paizo.com email. Should I resend it to the gatekeeper email or just leave things as they are?

Don't resend it - we've already redirected it. Sending queries to gatekeeper@paizo.com just makes sure that your proposal gets in the queue as quickly as possible. As James said, requested manuscripts should NOT go to gatekeeper, as it's possible for them to get buried in with the slush that way.
We, the query submitters, fear that that troublesome Gatekeeper is coming between us and you, dear editors. After careful consideration, we’ve concluded there’s only one possible solution.
The Gatekeeper must go.
So, we hereby challenge the Gatekeeper to mortal combat. If we defeat it, all of our future queries shall go directly to you, our beloved editors, for that personal touch. If it defeats us, however, we shall all continue to tender our queries to the not-so-tender consideration of The Render.
Experience shows that a game of rock-paper-scissors to the death is difficult to officiate by messageboard posts. So, we hereby challenge The Render to the next best thing: a riddling contest – to the death. We’ll even let it go first. Only original riddles count, of course, and all must be appropriate to the overall medieval-adventure setting. And the solution to each must make those who learn it smack their foreheads and say, “Of course!”
SMACK!! There. Our gauntlet lies in the dust at The Render’s feet. Does it have the courage to pick it up?

Q: What's black and white and used to line the cage of Gozer, Bulmahn's hamster?
A: Queries that aren't sent to the Gatekeeper account....the Render doesn't fool around.
Ah, so sad, . . . frightened by a few little riddles . . .
(And I always thought The Render used rejected queries to line a cockatrice cage.)
His hamster's name is Gozer? Was a hamster the first thing he thought of when told to choose the form?
Many Shuvs and Zools knew what it was to be roasted in the depths of the Hamster that day, I can tell you!
Wait a minute! I am confused, do we send campagin workbooks to the gatekeeper or to the dungeon?
The render is hard but fair, I think it makes him LE or a character from Full Metal Jacket.
The second option scares the fecal matter out of me!
