RE:email problem

I am trying to use James (2.1) to test an application I am working on. I don't have a DNS server on my W2K machine at home so I editted the hosts file such as:
         127.0.0.1       localhost
         127.0.0.1        house.com

when my app send emails to seller@house.com, The following message is from james/logs/smtpserver.log
---------
Successfully spooled mail from seller@house.com for [seller@house.com]
----------
I have set the outlook express the smtp/pop3 servers to localhost, and I have added the user 'seller' thru RemoteManager, and created an accout in Outlook express with the email address of seller@house.com, but I can't receive the email by Outlook express sent from my app!

Could anybody kindly tell me what I have done wrong? Any help would be much appreciated!

Make sure that your server name (house.com) is in the servernames list 
in config.xml.
