I have tried it and I still get the message
lowest numbered MX record points to local host: bounce.myhost.com (while
verifying <SRS0+7ia8=734=originaldomain=originallocalpart@???>
I also tried adding a manualroute router
with domains = bounce.myhost.com and route_data = <theip>
which gives the message:
remote host address is the local host: bounce.myhost.com
So is it indeed possible to force exim to route via SMTP even though the
address is local?
