'o' and process marks work in a special way; instead of saving all
articles to one file, it queries you for a file to save each process
marked message in.

With 'o'?  'o' saves to a rmail file on local disk, at least in my
Gnus.

I'm not sure what you described is a bug, so I suspect it still
happens.

Maybe what you want to do instead is to use `B c' to copy the articles
between two IMAP folders?  It support process mark in a nicer way, as
well.
