Some things won't send to "invalid" domain names, it might be a problem
depending on what you're trying to do.  There are other reserved domain
names for local or test use, too:  "localhost" "test"

You could use localhost as a top level domain (separate to the sole
"localhost" used for 127.0.0.1), e.g. fedora3.localhost.  Though some
things apparently don't handle that well.  You might be best using the
"test" one.  e.g. fedora3.test
