Hi,

This could also be a dns problem. Do you have any forwarders configured in
your own dns server ? If so, please advise the isdn4linux docs.
I also would advise you to use routelist "byname" instead of "bydns_a"
because you use a dialup connection. And you might find
queue_remote_domains also very interesting.

And, as Philip mentioned, the routers can be done easier. For example:

oh2rbi_1ampr_org:
     driver = domainlist
     transport = remote_smtp
     route_list = "oh2rbi-1.ampr.org 123.456.789.012 byname"



smarthost:
     driver = domainlist
     transport = remote_smtp
     route_list = "* 123.456.789.013 byname"



Regards,

Bart van Dommelen.
