That is a straightforward vanilla setup. Start with the default
configuration file and replace the "dnslookup" router on cable-modem
with something like this to forward all non-local mail to T1 (copied
from exim FAQ A0305)
internet:
driver = manualroute
domains = !+local_domains
transport = remote_smtp
route_list = * T1.host.name
instead of the "dnslookup" router in
And on T1.host.name add cable-modem's IP-address to the
relay_from_hosts list.
The cable-modem's IP-address changes setup SMTP AUTH instead as
described in spec.txt.
