I've checked "Client-side IMAP Splitting" in the Gnus manual, and tried
a few different things, but nothing seems to work. (I don't get any
error messages either, but nothing gets refiled.)

Does anyone have an example setup with multiple IMAP accounts and mail
splitting?

I think I'll have to write a custom function to chop off the beginning
bit since one of the default formatting specifiers shows too much and
the other shows too little.
