} 10.0.0.2.
This is not handled by the relay logic - the address presented to exim is
a *local* address. The fact that it resolves to a remote address is
irrelevant in this respect.
I assume that the literal IP router is both compiled in and configured.
I also assume that the exim running as the smtp server is the same binary
and configuration as the one you used to send mail locally - remember that
unless you HUP or restart the daemon it won't notice config changes
(except where in a delivery it re-exec's exim).
} How can I tell the system that I want to prohibit relaying EXCEPT for
} stuff going out of *and into* a certain subnet?
from -> sender_net_accept_relay = 10.0.0.0/255.255.255.0
into -> relay_domains
However I don't think thats the question you mean...
By the sound of it you want to relay mail going out, and redirect (through
aliases) mail coming in - thats rather different and doesn't really need
any special config for the incoming mail.
