In the router area use something like this:

For Exim 3.x use this:
---------- clip -------------
Compuserv:
driver = domainlist
transport = remote_smtp
route_list = cs.com mail.myisp.net byname

aol:
driver = domainlist
transport = remote_smtp
route_list = aol.com mail.myisp.net byname
------------ end of clip ---------------

for Exim 4.x use this:
---------- clip -------------
compuserve:
driver = manualroute
transport = remote_smtp
route_list = cs.com mail.myisp.net byname

aol:
driver = manualroute
transport = remote_smtp
route_list = aol.com mail.myisp.net byname
---------- end of clip ----------
You note that I also include Compuserve, as they are now AOL, and follow the
same rules.

Also replace the "mail.myisp.net" with your ISP's smtp box.

Hello..

I am currently running Exim 3.35-1 on a Debian box (running stable dist.).

When trying to send e-mail to an AOL address, I am greeted by this error:
   SMTP error from remote mailer after initial connection:
    host mailin-01.mx.aol.com [64.12.137.184]: 554-The IP address you are
using to connect to AOL is a dynamic (residential)
    554-IP address.  AOL will not accept future e-mail transactions from
this IP
    554-address until your ISP removes this IP address from its list of
dynamic
    554-(residential) IP addresses.  For additional information, please
visit
    554-http://postmaster.info.aol.com.
    554 Goodbye


I've gone to postmaster.info.aol.com to see if there's something I can do..
but there isn't much help to be had there.


So, what I'm trying to do is have Exim send any e-mail going to @aol.com
through my ISPs SMTP instead of my own server.

Any ideas how I might impliment this, or any pointers?

Thanks,

Tim
