Ok, my mistake.  Try the attached patch against 0.9.5.  It should
correct the problem, where the date/time is not substituted properly.

This is very strange and I can't seem to reproduce it though I'm using a
similar "action move" destination mailbox. 

Because I can't see why in "action move archive/$_/$_- at Y-@m" the
destination mailbox gets parsed as "archive/$_- at Y-@m".  A "$_/" seems to
get lost somewhere...

Can you double check that this configuration file was used when you run
imapfilter and send this DEBUG output?
