Expiring into a target group

Expiring into a target group

Hello,

Given these `gnus-parameters' extracts:

 ("Lists"
  (subscribed . t)
  (subscribe . "INBOX.lists.")
  (gnus-use-scoring t)
  (gcc-self . t))
 ("\\(lists..*\\)$"
  (total-expire . t)
  (expiry-wait . 1)
  (expiry-target . "INBOX.Archive.\\1"))

(I enforced expiry-wait temporarily).

Shouldn't this expire messages, say for group "INBOX.lists.Emacs.Gnus", into
group "INBOX.Archive.lists.Emacs.Gnus" ? If I am asking it is because it does
not behave this way here :)

Here is what I can see into *Messages* buffer when exiting from
INBOX.lists.Emacs.Gnus:

849 850 851 852)

But no mention of target or anything like that.

Any idea what could be wrong ?

Thank you

Is that the full Gnus group name?  They're usually called nnimap+... etc.
