# This router routes to remote hosts over SMTP by explicit IP address,

# <user@???>. The RFCs require this facility. However, it is
# little-known these days, and has been exploited by evil people seeking

out
# "forbid_domain_literals" above, so that Exim can recognize the syntax of
# domain literal addresses.
