The variable is defvar'd in gnus-sum.el, and defvoo'd in nnimap.el, and otherwise is only let. I've put the output of a full rgrep on my .emacs.d directory below. All the bbdb-gnus related stuff hasn't changed in literally a decade, so I doubt it's that. I just know that in a few days' time I'm going to be begging pardon for wasting everyone's time on a stupid problem that was all my fault to begin with, but... In the meantime, this is terribly frustrating! ./bbdb/lisp/bbdb-gnus.el:359:with the `nnimap-split-fancy' method you have to use macros, that is your setting ./bbdb/lisp/bbdb-gnus.el:362:\(setq nnimap-split-rule 'nnimap-split-fancy ./bbdb/lisp/bbdb-gnus.el:364: nnimap-split-fancy ./gnus/lisp/gnus-registry.el:429:entry in `nnmail-split-fancy' or `nnimap-split-fancy', for example like ./gnus/lisp/nnimap.el:88:(defvoo nnimap-split-fancy nil ./gnus/lisp/nnimap.el:1127: (nnimap-split-fancy ./gnus/lisp/nnimap.el:1129: (nnmail-split-fancy (or nnimap-split-fancy ./gnus/lisp/nnimap.el:2028: (nnimap-split-fancy ./gnus/lisp/nnimap.el:2030: (nnmail-split-fancy (or nnimap-split-fancy ./gnus/lisp/gnus-sum.el:10699:(defvar nnimap-split-fancy) ./gnus/lisp/gnus-sum.el:10718: (nnimap-split-fancy ./gnus/lisp/gnus-sum.el:10720: (nnmail-split-fancy (or nnimap-split-fa
