Yes. You use the ACLs to decide what to accept and the routers to decide
where it should go.
In the default configuration, add this domain list:
domainlist manualroute_domains = lsearch;/etc/exim/manualroutes
and add it to the local domains list:
domainlist local_domains = @ : +manualroute_domains
This setup ensures that the default ACLs and dnslookup router will do the
right things. After the dnslookup router, you need to add:
manualroute:
driver = manualroute
domains = +manualroute_domains
route_data = $domain_data
transport = smtp
Populate /etc/exim/manualroutes with entries like:
xyz.com: mail.server.for.xyz.com
abc.com: mail.server.for.abc.com
You probably also want a way to verify which local parts are valid in
these domains. The easiest way is to change the ACLs so that they say:
accept domains = +local_domains
endpass
verify = recipient/callout=use_sender,defer_ok
i.e. add the callout parameters.
