conventions for? local host & domain name

B

I have some Freebsd servers on our internal network.
So they are not internet visible.

Obviously the host name can be set, but what I would like to know is:
is there a convention for a local domain name?

I guess one doesn't use a 'real' domainname if the host cannot be reached?

I am chiefly concerned with sending email out. Unfortunately I need to send to
an exchange server and like most MS stuff it appears to be brain dead and oft confused.
As is the administrator.
So I would like to get my house in order first.

Are there any conventions I should follow?

Not really. All I can suggest is not using .local or an existing internet domain.

You can 'reformat' the email when it gets send out.
