Filtering mails with sieve filters

Hello good people,
I have dovecot- 2.3.7.2 (Ubuntu Ubuntu 20.04.1 LTS) running fine.
However, I have a hitch with mail filtering.
Using SOGo as the webmail UI, I created a filter rule which resulted into
the rule below:
require ["fileinto"];
if allof (address :contains "from" "odhiambo") {
fileinto "INBOX/Odhiambo";
}
However, the test mail I sent did not end up the folder expected.
lda.log contains this info:
Oct 30 07:39:07 lda(wash at mydomain)<2415266><tSKSHhvDm1+i2iQA9H6eMA>: Info:
sieve: msgid=<CAAdA2WNqXpG1qmOmKp_pJPS6iQrEPeS6=vM_=
o8UnvR152x54Q at mail.gmail.com>: stored mail into mailbox 'INBOX'
Oct 30 07:39:07 lda(wash at mydomain)<2415266><tSKSHhvDm1+i2iQA9H6eMA>: Info:
sieve: Execution of script /var/spool/virtual/mydomain/wash/.dovecot.sieve
failed, but implicit keep was successful (user logfile
/var/spool/virtual/mydomain/wash/.dovecot.sieve.log may reveal additional
details)
And the .dovecot.sieve.log contains:
sieve: info: started log at Oct 30 07:39:07.
error: msgid=<CAAdA2WNqXpG1qmOmKp_pJPS6iQrEPeS6=vM_=
o8UnvR152x54Q at mail.gmail.com>: failed to store into mailbox
'INBOX/Odhiambo': *Invalid mailbox name: Name must not have '/' characters.*
What might be the problem here??
