exim smart host for specific domains

helpmhost · 12-17-2007, 12:45 PM

Hi,

Our exim mail server sends e-mail out without using any smart host. It uses the regular DNS/SMTP method.

However, we now need to send e-mails destined to a few specific domains to a specific mail server (something different than what the DNS resolves to).

So what I would like to do is setup exim so that any e-mail destined for that list of domains, gets sent directly to a specific mail server. Any idea on how to do this?

Thanks.

I figured it out.

For those of you who may later get the same issue, here is the config settings I put in the configure file:

Code:

domainlist smarthost_domains = domain1:domain2.com

In the routers section (the very first one):

Code:

smarthost:
  driver = manualroute
  domains = +smarthost_domains
  transport = remote_smtp
  route_list = +smarthost_domains IP_or_DNS_of_smarthost
