There is this odd thing that a word-boundary match is tacked on to the
beginning and start of the regexp, which sometimes is confusing.

I usually get around it by sticking ".*" to either, or both, ends, when
it doesn't match as I expect it to.

You can also change the variable nnmail-split-fancy-match-partial-words.

(See
https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/gnus/Fancy-Mail-Splitting.html
starting from "Normally, value in theses split must match a complete
word"...)

Remember you can use B q (or even B t) to check your splits match as you
expect them to.
