You'll find it by searching for "manual route" in the exim specs' toc.

OK, the following is taken from the ROUTERS section of my exim3
configuration file:
ibook:
condition = ${if eq {$domain}{ibook\.linau\.de}{true} fail}}:
driver = domainlist
transport = remote_smtp
route_list = "* airbook.linau.de bydns_a"

This will advise my exim to send mails to <anyone@???> via
airbook.linau.de.

The syntax for exim4 is just slightly different - IMO you could just
stat the "destination domain" instead of creating a complicated
"condition expression"...
Gaving a closer look at the exim specs will surely help you. ;-)

Regards & hth,
Christian
