Splitting to several servers makes things much, much more complex.  I
think it would make more sense to add a `gnus-group' mail source, so
that, for instance, you first allow nnml to split all the mail, and
then you have nnbabyl split the mail using some of the nnml groups as
sources.  Or something like that.

I think.
