I am new to dovecot administration, not new to postfix administration.

When setting up a new postfix/dovecot combo from scratch, can I start with dovecot alone and still be able to test it? E.g. can I address the local delivery agent with some sort of test email? If so, how? I haven’t been able to find it in the wiki.
