I was helping someone on irc set up exim, and they had the problem that they
wanted to send all outgoing mail to a particular port on their local host.
They are stuck behind a non-transparent firewall, but have a program that
sets up a connection through the firewall and maps it to a port on their
local host.
The configuration they have uses this router:
domain_list:
driver = domainlist,
transport = smtp;
route_list = "* localhost bydns_a"
and this transport:
smtp:
driver = smtp;
service = 800
The problem is that exim complains that "remote host address for foo@???
is the local host". How can he set it up that it ignores this and delivers
anyway? I assume this is a fairly common situation, as I know there are
people running two copies of exim with different configurations.
