As far as I can tell, the above quoted parts of your .gnus are the ones
related to splitting.

So you are doing nnimap-splitting. Step 1 is to read:

 · http://gnus.org/manual/gnus_83.html#Client_002dSide-IMAP-Splitting

I think you need to set nnimap-split-fancy to your fancy splits:

,----[ C-h v nnimap-split-fancy RET ]
| nnimap-split-fancy is a variable defined in ‘nnimap.el’.
| Its value is nil
| 
| Documentation:
| Uses the same syntax as ‘nnmail-split-fancy’.
| 
| This is a Gnus server variable.  See Info node ‘(gnus)Select Methods’.
`----

You've only set nnmail-split-fancy, which is for non-IMAP splitting.

You also have to set nnimap-inbox:

,----[ C-h v nnimap-inbox RET ]
| nnimap-inbox is a variable defined in ‘nnimap.el’.
| Its value is nil
| 
| Documentation:
| The mail box where incoming mail arrives and should be split out of.
| This can be a string or a list of strings
| For example, "INBOX" or ("INBOX" "SENT").
| 
| This is a Gnus server variable.  See Info node ‘(gnus)Select Methods’.
`----

I'm not sure that IMAP-splitting can split to other backends, so you
might have to revise your splits, but I don't know for sure.


  Best regards,

    Adam
