You can also try through your favorite mail client (thunderbird, etc...)
and define your VM-TEST-SERVER as the smtp server for your mail account.

Hi all,____
I am configuring mail server on virtual machine for testing. I am
using centos 5.6 and postfix-2.3.3-2.3.el5_6. I can send without
problems but I can’t receive mails. I don’t have mx record I tried
to add to hosts file but no change. is mx record a must even if I
am using for testing only?? Is there any alternatives of using mx
record locally something like hosts file____
Have you tried telnet?
$ telnet ip-of-vm 25
Regards,
Norberto
