Package: reportbug
Version: 6.6.3
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
I think it would be good if reportbug had the ability to send a test
email to a dead account (or user configurable) to test configuration.
I was following the instructions here
https://wiki.debian.org/reportbug#Using_GMail.27s_SMTP_Server
to use gmail for reportbug and, when completed, I wanted to know if
I'd set it up correctly.
Reading the man pages and googling, I could not find any "send test
email" mode that seemed appropriate (the test mode is clearly marked
just for maintainers).

I think you want:
$ reportbug --help | grep -- --debug
-d, --debug send report only to yourself
with a "dummy" report (which you will have to enter).
