That was just a part of the whole thing. The whole should look like this:

(setq gnus-message-archive-group '((if (equal group "")
                                       (if (message-news-p)
                                           "outgoing"
                                         "misc")
                                     (if (string-match "nnfolder:" group)
                                         group
                                       "outgoing")
                                     "outgoing")))

It returns 0, which I assume is what should happen.
