You can do several tests of messages entering the qmail system:
1. SMTP server test: Forge some mail locally via SMTP. Replace ``me''
with your username and ``domain'' with your host's name.
% telnet 127.0.0.1 25
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to 127.0.0.1.
Escape character is '^]'.
220 domain ESMTP

mail <me@domain>
250 ok
rcpt <me@domain>

Look for the message in your mailbox. (Note for programmers: Most
SMTP servers need more text after MAIL and RCPT. See RFC 821.)
2. Remote-local test: Send yourself some mail from another machine.
Look for the message in your mailbox.
3. Remote-error test: Send some mail from another machine to
nonexistent@domain. Look for a bounce message in the remote mailbox.
4. UA test: Try sending mail, first to a local account, then to a
remote account, with your normal user agent.
5. Remote-postmaster test: Send mail from another machine to
PoStMaStEr@domain. Look for the message in the alias mailbox,
normally ~alias/Mailbox.
