It runs the routers in verify mode, i.e. basically "exim -bv
add@ress", therefore it depends on *your* routers what is acceptable.
- If you've just the normal
dnslookup:
driver = dnslookup
domains = ! +local_domains
transport = remote_smtp
then a MX is suffficient, otoh if you've a smarthost-setup, simply
sending everything to another host
smarthost:
driver = manualroute
domains = ! +local_domains
transport = remote_smtp
route_list = * some.host
then the sender verify basically is uselss, as it will always
succeed.
