bbdb/nnimap-split-fancy splitting problem

[Sarir Khamsi]

I am trying to use BBDB and nnimap-split-fancy, as defined in the
Emacs Wiki (http://www.emacswiki.org/cgi-bin/wiki?SplitMailUsingBbdb)
with the following code:

(setq gnus-ignored-from-addresses "Sarir Khamsi")
(setq nnmail-crosspost nil
       nnmail-split-methods 'bbdb/gnus-split-method
       bbdb/gnus-split-nomatch-function 'nnimap-split-fancy
       bbdb/gnus-split-myaddr-regexp gnus-ignored-from-addresses
       nnimap-split-fancy
       `(| ("Subject" "emacs" "mail.emacs")
           ("from" ".*raytheon\\.com" "mail.raytheon")
           ("from" ".*/RWS/Raytheon/US.*" "mail.raytheon")
           ("from" "The Raytheon Technology Networks.*" "mail.raytheon")
           ("any" ".*ray\\.com" "mail.raytheon")
           ("to" ".*RMS Employee.*" "mail.raytheon")
           ("to" ".*Tucson Engineering.*" "mail.raytheon")
           ("from" ".*RECP Communications.*" "mail.raytheon")
           ("from" ".*@csc.*\\.com" "mail.raytheon")
           ("from" ".*Raytheon Global Health Resources.*" "mail.raytheon")
           ("from" ".*RMS Mentoring Program.*" "mail.raytheon")
           ("to" ".*emacs.*@gnu\\.org" "mail.emacs")
           ("from" "word@m-w\\.com" "mail.misc")
           ("from" "word@m-w\\.com" "mail.misc")
           ("from" ".*@ilogix\\.com" "mail.misc")
           ("from" ".*borland\\.com" "mail.misc")
           ("from" ".*@us\\.ibm\\.com" "mail.misc")
           ("from" ".*@omg\\.org" "mail.misc")
           ("from" "newsletter@reply\\.ticketmaster\\.com" "mail.misc")
           (any ,gnus-ignored-from-addresses "mail.misc")
           "mail.spam"))
(setq nnimap-split-rule 'nnimap-split-fancy)

but none if my "friends" go into the correct folder...they all go into
mail.misc. I followed the instructions in the Wiki page above and made
fields in BBDB for gnus.private and set them correctly (eg, to
"mail.friends") but no luck. Can someone please explain what's going
wrong? Thanks.
