Here's the problem...exim 4.43

I need to relay to a specific host (host-b) for specific domains
(domain-b.com)(not relying on DNS - yeah I know)...

the first bit is is from what I can, set a manual route near the top of
the routers section....

domain-broute:
         driver = manualroute
         transport = remote_smtp
         domains = domain-b.com
         route = host-b.domain-b.com


Then I need to add in the authenticator info..

looking at http://www.exim.org/exim-html-4.50/doc/html/spec_33.html#SECT33.5

I can add hosts_require_auth = host-b.domain-b.com at the top of the
configure file so make it authenticate for that domain.

So the username/password.....

I put the following in the authenicators section

fixed_plain:
       driver = plaintext
       public_name = PLAIN
       client_send = ^username^password


Is this correct???? Or am I missing something, barking up the wrong
tree?????
