Coo, let's play chase the FAQ references!
I initially thought FAQ 0308. But then saw 0318.
Q0318: How can I route mail for user X@local to a smarthost if X
doesn't exist on the local host?
A0318: See A0428.
Q0428: How can I route mail for user X@local to a smarthost if X
doesn't exist on the local host?
A0428: This is the same question as Q0402. The duplication is a bug in
the FAQ.
Q0402: How do I configure Exim to send all messages to a central server?
A0402: This implies that you are not doing any local deliveries at all.
Set
local_domains =
in the configuration file. This specifies that there are no
local domains (by default your host name is set up as a local
domain). Then all addresses are non-local - A0302 tells you how
to deal with them.
And 0302 is about using a smarthost.
Uhm, see FAQ 0308, which explains it. If you need help expressing the
list of local users, ask again for help. :^)
