It's talking about Unix "environment variables". One place to set
them is your bash startup files, if you're running bash, yes.
These only work when the message is injected via qmail-inject. If the
message is instead submitted via SMTP, it's the stuff in the headers
of the message as sent that governs. So what will work depends on how
you are sending the messages, among many other things.
