[Mimedefang] Can I test a filter before I reload the rules

[Al Sparks]

That's not a complete answer.  All 
   mimedefang.pl -f test-filter –test
does is check to see if your code meets perl syntax rules.

Your filter may end up doing something terrible, and the above test
won't catch it.

My recommendation is to have a separate test server to test your
filters. 

I'm a newbie to MIMEDefang, and I realize I know just enough to be
dangerous.  I'll be testing everything for awhile.
