First of all, Procmail is not a MUA, but an MDA and doesn't know about  
IMAP folders, just about mailbox storage formats.
But the crucial point is the folder with the name INBOX.lala. This is  
has no semantic meaning, i.e. this is *not* a subfolder of the INBOX,  
just because it happens to be named this way. It could have been named  
foobar.lala and it wouldn't make a (technical) difference to either  
Dovecot or Procmail.
But Ingo doesn't know this, because Ingo doesn't know that the IMAP  
server that provides the folder listing doesn't have an INBOX.  
namespace. It just strips a leading INBOX from any folder name it  
receives. At least when using Maildir. This would have been the  
correct behavior, if INBOX was indeed the namespace, and Ingo is just  
guessing here.
