But this will never return the group name -- unless `group' is the
empty string it will always return "outgoing",

(let ((group "nnfolder:foo.bar"))
  (if (equal group "")
      (if (message-news-p)
	  "outgoing"
	"misc")
    (if (string-match "nnfolder:" group)
	group
      "outgoing")
    "outgoing"))

=> "outgoing"

You need to remove the last "outgoing".
