hi, i have to more questions for using my exim as relay client for some
domains. at the moment i have:
relayed:
        driver = domainlist
        transport = remote_smtp
        search_type = lsearch
        route_file = /etc/exim/routed-domains


and that's nice. but is it possible to add for all the others (all the
domains that don't match this router) a rule which says: if mail is
rejected by mailserver, use this smtp-relay. so, if i send to a host
that is not listed in /etc/exim/routed-domains but rejects the mail
direct from my server, use the server mail.example.com as smtp relay
instead of producing error message?

second, is it possible to manage two smtp auth accounts with exim?
at the moment i have:
plain:
driver = plaintext
public_name = PLAIN
client_send = "^jonas^*****"

how can i add a second? is it possible to manage client accounts also
with a file like routed domains? if yes, is it possible to save the
passwords encrypted? i don't like these open passwords in exim.conf.

if it's possible to manage more than one client smtp auth accounts, is
it possible to give rules 'if From: is user@???, use smtp-relay
mail.domain.tdl with account 2'?

even it's not possible, i'm interessted in how to set routers for
outgoing mails depending on senders username/domain, not on receivers
like all the rules for now do.

these are many questions, but i still have one more: my
/etc/exim/routed-domains contains:
sourceforge.net:                mail.steindlberger.de bydns_a
lists.sourceforge.net:          mail.steindlberger.de bydns_a
python.org:                     mail.steindlberger.de bydns_a
lists.python.org:               mail.steindlberger.de bydns_a
lists.rwth-aachen.de:           mail.steindlberger.de bydns_a
informatik.rwth-aachen.de:      mail.steindlberger.de bydns_a


as you see, many hosts are called several times only with other
subdomains.
for rwth-aachen.de it should be possible to replace both rules with:
*.rwth-aachen.de:           mail.steindlberger.de bydns_a
am i right?


but what about python.org? *python.org would also use userpython.org,
which I don't want. does (lists.)*python.org work? so that lists. has to
be there 0 or more times.

thanks a lot for all your support. i'm at falling in love with exims
config (it's quite nice), so plan to stay active at exim relating stuff.

bye
mejo
