Hi,
Edda's email pointed me into the right direction and found the culprit, 
there was a custom script in the wrong place and was stripping the Inbox 
prefix from the sieve script hence the fileinto permission denied errors 
because it couldn't find the correct folder. Our email servers uses 
Inbox.folder_name format and not the UNIX separator character '/' for 
delimiting levels.

Thanks
