There’s no reason you can’t use a temp address. That’s how I develop Postman on my local machine. I just add fake DNS entries into the /etc/hosts file and use those to access my various WordPress sites.

Thanks Jason, but that’s not very clear for me…
My temp dev sites are online, in subfolders, not local machines.
In the meanwhile, I managed to configure OAuth 2.0 for Gmail with my live temp subfolder and I’m just planning to modify this address when I move to the final destination.
Hope I’m not doing this wrong…
Sorry I misunderstood.
Yes, you can use a temp address that’s not a problem. And once Postman is authorized it will keep sending mail even if the address changes later on.
Thanks for using!
