My laptop connects to many networks in many places, since I havn't
had time to mess with SMTP AUTH yet, I've been using;
queue_remote_domains="*"
and
# this laptop should route domains I handle directly, directly to moek
localroute:
driver = domainlist
transport = remote_smtp
host_find_failed = defer
route_list = "\
pir.net pir.net bydns; \
*.pir.net pir.net bydns; \
*.rfc.pir.net pir.net bydns; \
rfc.pir.net pir.net bydns; \
"
# deal with any special routes from the connection method
fileroute:
transport = remote_smtp
driver = domainlist
route_file = EBASE/route-file
search_type = partial0-lsearch
Usually route-file is empty, but I've hacked the dhclient script to
add in any smtp server supplied by a dhcp server (happens at work and
home) and I've hacked my dialup scripts so for each dialup "target" I
put the name of the smarthost in a file that gets copied in place if
the connection is successful.
When my link comes up, be it through dialup or ether, I run exim -qff
and off goes my mail ...
