There are variables gnus-split-methods and gnus-move-split-methods,
where the former specifies filenames (for the `o' command, I guess)
and the latter specifies group names (for `B m').

The above behavior could be explained if you have set
gnus-split-methods to a similar value and use `o' or one of the `O'
commands instead of `B m'.

If that wasn't it, I have no idea.
