You may be able to solve the problem by setting the
`nnmail-split-fancy-match-partial-words' variable as t.  See the
doc-string for it.  There is an XEmacs 21.5 bug which is probably
related to the following thread:

The test code I used is below:

(let ((nnmail-split-fancy '(...your customization...))
      (nnmail-split-fancy-match-partial-words nil))
  (with-temp-buffer
    (insert "\

")
    (nnmail-split-fancy)))
 => ("INBOX")
