I think some people look at the To and Cc headers; if the message
isn't to a mailing list you're on or contains your address in those
headers, it's classified as spam.

Of course, that fails for Bcc'd messages.

You can use `B q' to ask Gnus where it would put the current message.
And then there's `B t' which sounds promising but I've never tried it.

And I don't think there's any builtin functionality for adding headers
to messages while splitting.

There is a difference if you use fancy mail splitting: `B q' only
shows you where the mail would go, `B t' also shows you a trace.

Hm.  You might be able to hack it yourself by finding out how the
splitting function is called (which buffer, etc) and then you could
insert the headers yourself.
