Sending test email at [EMAIL PROTECTED] is much easier than sending test email to user@[1.2.3.4] in my opinion.  There is less typing.  The way to do it is give your server a fqdn of server.fakedomain.com and create a entry in your nameserver.  As long as you aren't interfering with any traffic going in or out you should be ok.  Use something like server.playboy.com.  You users probably shouldn't be sending email to there anyways ;)

How do I do that? I cannot use my domain, because I will not receive e-mail until qmail is ok. Besides that, why can't I use IP numbers?

You should be able to temporarily assign yourself an domain name for testing purposes. 
 
 
 
Just for information: running ./config didn't work, because I don't have a domain name assigned to my IP number. So I used ./config-fast 192.168.1.20  . Will this work?
 
Thank you
