Incoming messages don't "start out" in any folder. They are passed through the sieve script one at a time to determine where they are to go.
You haven't proved my claim wrong - ... "In SIEVE, every message starts out in the inbox."

In any case, the behavior that bothers me the most is this:
When using the search feature, messages in subfolders of Trash are not considered to be in Trash:
When a standard search (which the documentation indicates excludes the folders Trash and Archive) is performed, emails in subfolders of Trash ARE searched and listed if they match the search criteria.
