The data you posted doesn't include your setting for mydestination, so I would assume default ($myhostname, localhost.$mydomain). I always add "localhost" alone to the list.
The "ignore_mx_lookup_error" doesn't get you out of having to have DNS working, I believe (i.e. having the appropriate entries in /etc/hosts doesn't do it). Is your test network also running its own DNS ? Can postfix deliver to other machines ?
