1) I think your fancy split rules are wrong.  They look like simple
   split rules.  Look at the nnimap-split-fancy docs.

2) gnus-spam-process-destination doesn't affect splitting, it matters
   when you exit a group and you have articles in it that are marked
   as spam.  They will be processed by the spam backends and then
   sent to the spam-process-destination ("SPAM" for all groups in your
   setup).  There's a similar process for non-spam (ham) articles.

Hope this helps
