I use gnus + agent + splitting with no problem. The only
difference I can see between what you are doing and what I do is
that the final destination in the split rules, in my case, is
*not* INBOX but another group ("general", in my case). Maybe
there is some confusion about splitting from INBOX into INBOX when
the agent comes into play?
HTH,

I came to the same conclusion by removing this last rule of
nnimap-fancy-split (the catchall "INBOX") altogether puts all non split
messages in a new group (named "UNKNOWN") and the agent doesn't show
duplicates in "INBOX" anymore.
I guess the agent confuses itself when it splits a message to the same
group it splitted it from and counts it twice. Looks like a bug ?

Whether it's a bug or not, it is rather inefficient as you will be
processing any such messages over and over again! Seems cleaner
to split to elsewhere regardless.

You're right, but I've been using this inefficient process for a while
now and only recently switched to running unplugged so It took me a
while to notice this behaviour.
