I think if you check user settings in database, you should find that they
have sent_subfolders_setting set to non zero value, but sent_subfolders_base
setting is not set. sent_subfolder_base default value is the same as
sent_folder.

If user sets folder preferences to use sent subfolders, sent_subfolders
plugin updates sent_folder value to INBOX.Sent/something. After that
undefined sent_subfolder_base starts using this INBOX.Sent/something value
and '/something' suffix is appended on every folder list reload.

See possible fix at http://pastebin.com/5hRTPQ3t, but it will fix only new
option changes. Previous user pref changes will need fixes in user pref data
store.

Check your user settings in database. If they have sent_subfolders_setting
set to some value and sent_subfolder_base is not set, add
sent_subfolder_base setting to their preferences with 'INBOX.Sent' value.

Please note that you have misconfigured default Sent folder setting in your
setup. '.' is one of IMAP folder delimiters and your server uses '/' as
delimiter. Based on your default folder prefix I would suspect that your
Sent folder should be set to 'Sent' and not to 'INBOX.Sent'.
