This is overly simplistic, but I can't do
more because I don't know what your config
looks like, and I've customized my config
so much that I can't cut-n-paste and hope
that it will drop correctly into yours.
Add this hostlist near the top:
hostlist my_mx_provider = 1.2.3.4 : 1.2.3.5
Add something like this in the rcpt acl:
accept hosts = +my_mx_provider
domains = +local_domains : +relay_to_domains
AFTER the ACL stanza that allows inbound from auth'd
clients, do a default deny at the end of that acl.
(I think the default at the end of the rcpt acl is,
in the stock config file, accept. You need to
change)
The exim config file, on a stock install, is very
well commented, and the spec.txt file has a lot
of examples. Have you been reading them at all?
