Yes, I can.
The idea is that all servers has, by default, the domain
<machine>.<lan_domain>. Then, when I send and e-mail using "mail" from the
server (as root, for example), it will send from
root@<machine>.<lan_domain>. The problem I have is how to allow toaster
machine to receive this e-mails from internet (not directly from LAN),
knowing that these machines are allowed to send e-mails in their own
subdomains.
The question is ¿Need I any DNS considerations about these subdomains?
and/or ¿Need I any toaster machine considerations too?

The problem I encounter is when these machines (in the same LAN) uses
another gateway to connect to internet, that is the reason for this
question.

Hi,

In this deal, as you need to send emails from each server in your intranet 
"server.lan_domain" to other email server in the internet, you will need to 
have a "real" domain, and create a subdomain with the name of each server 
you have.

if you need to receive reply from internet to an email box for each 
subdomain, you have to create each subdomain.real_domain.com in the qmail 
server.

as you have "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" you can add the email header 
"REPLY-TO: [EMAIL PROTECTED]" so you can receive replyes.

or you can add REPLY-TO: [EMAIL PROTECTED], so you need to create one 
domain only in your qmail server, and one email box for each server.

another thing is if your send your emails with [EMAIL PROTECTED] 
when another server receives it, it will check the domain exists, the MX and 
SPF records, and all other things to try determine if the sender have a 
valid domain.

So I recommend you to use [EMAIL PROTECTED] for all your sends 
(or [EMAIL PROTECTED]).

I hope this help you.
