RE: [Exim] Mail

Try these on for size; I use these to route incoming SMTP for my domain
over to my Exchange server.

Here's the router:

send_to_gateway:
driver = manualroute
domains = mydomain.com
route_list = mydomain.com 10.40.1.20 byname
transport = internal_smtp

Here's the transport:

internal_smtp:
driver = smtp
hosts = 10.40.1.20

Okay I read TFM :) but I can't make head or tail of the whole Manual
Router
setup.

Any chance someone here that has that setup can shoot me a config
example?
All I want to do is tell my Exim MTA that any mail messages sent to
@xyz.com
to send them to the IP address of the DMZ network address (10.x)

Exim and one running Exchange2K. They both have 10.x IP's and are the
MX's
for 2 different domain names - let's say abc.com and xyz.com. Receiving
and
sending mail to and from anywhere on the internet work great, but when I
try
to send mail between the domains things don't work!!

and
not the 10.x address. So it can't make a SMTP connection.

How can I force the message to be retried at an earlier time?!
