That depends on what you mean by "develop". Certainly you could write JAMES mailets and test them on a standalone PC. (I do.) All you need to do is use any mail client and set the smtp and pop servers to be localhost.

When you send mail it will go directly to JAMES. You can receive mail from JAMES via pop3. For this setup you don't even need DNS!

If you want to start forwarding mail to the real world, you will need to set up a dns server in config.xml. Your ISP's DNS servers would suffice. Assuming that you are using windows NT, just type "ipconfig /all" while connected to the internet. (I assume that you have at least a dial-up connection to the internet, because you managed to post this question.) Make sure that you are connected to the internet when you send your email.

If you want to receive mail from the internet, you will need to use JAMES integrated fetchPOP support. In order to receive SMTP mail from the real world, you will need you either be full time connected, or use ETRN. I am not sure if JAMES supports ETRN.

Hope this helps.

Cheers
