Normally you need to set up an "MX" record for the domain name to point to a host e.g. mail.domain.com. You then need this host to have an "A" record giving the ip address of the mail server.
As you arnt using a real domain, you wont have these! If james is running properly then you should be able to login using 127.0.0.1 as the server name for pop and smtp. Not knowing exactly what goes on in james, there is the possibility that this may not work, as james may require dns entries to be set up properly. Also, as you have dnsserver set to 127.0.0.1, do you actually have a dns server running on your local machine?
