If I send an email from my Gmail account to another account which is
fetched by gmail (automatically by pop3), these messages never appear
in the Inbox even though they are collected i.e. I see three messages
collected in the Accounts view.
I like to do this occasionally to test my other domain’s email is
functioning. Correctly.

This is obviously a feature of Gmail duplicate suppression.

Is there any way to reveal these messages?

They are most likely getting grouped in a conversation with the
original email you sent. Try looking for the message you sent in Sent
Mail and see if there are two messages in the conversation.

That might happen, but typically duplicates are completely discarded
by Gmail. I don't think there's any way to access them.

Ryan is right, there is no conversation associated with the original
sent messages, the replies appear to be completely discarded as they
are the same as the original sent. I guess this makes sense in a way,
I'll just have to use another account to check these other addresses.
