so do these look ok:

my-local-domain.example
relay-for-domain.example
external-domain.example


Are the others (below) actually unsafe to use in examples, or just not
preferred?

       10.0.0.0        -   10.255.255.255  (10/8 prefix)
       172.16.0.0      -   172.31.255.255  (172.16/12 prefix)
       192.168.0.0     -   192.168.255.255 (192.168/16 prefix)


Without setting up NAT or port-forwarding these would seem to be
"unroutable" from the big bad Internet, which would seem to be quite
useful for testing on a private LAN (without having to worry about
becoming an open relay)?

Thanks for the quick response,
Jason
