Thanks Tony! This helped a lot.

I ended up removing the "." form my lookup and removing the [.] from
your example. This way, I do not have to do the "if" check for
"INBOX". So I basically just remove the string "INBOX" from any name
that sieve passes back. "INBOX" becomes "", and "INBOX.subfolder"
becomes ".subfolder" which is exactly what I wanted. Complete
transport directory setting:

directory = ${lookup mysql{SELECT maildir FROM mailaccount WHERE
username = '${local_part}' AND domain = '${domain}' AND deliver =
'yes'}}${sg {$address_file} {^INBOX} {} }

Thanks again,
