Well, testing the splits with live mail is unwarrantedly risky -- "B q"
(gnus-summary-respool-query) on a message you've already got is a much
safer test since it doesn't actually *do* anything...

I'm not sure how "Debugging" the splits would actually work,
though... it might be possible to put some optional message calls in
the split handling routines, but they'd have to spew basically
everything ("rule %s didn't match %s" for each rule for each
message...)  In case it wasn't clear, the refile to "bogus" is what
happens if it *falls off the end*.
