Ok, I can choose routers based on the recipients domain. Cool (see
below for why I want this). But my MAIL FROM: is still rejected by
Greg's system (dman.ddts.net has no MX record). I wanted to send him
a message off-list but have failed.

Is there an easy way to specify an address for the MAIL FROM: in the
router's configuration?

(Greg: read below for your message that is off-topic for exim-users)

Your MX handler didn't accept my mail. :-( I have no MX record for
my host (nor any control over the DNS, really) -- dman.ddts.net.
Interesting that, even though I have no MX, your system sent the
bounce to my system anyways.

Curious, to, that you're using postfix and not exim ;-).

I'm now trying to have exim use a smarthost for mail to your domain,
but none others. Hope this works ...

Off-list since this isn't really related to exim anymore.

Why do you say that?
