Aihe: Re: [exim] MX name with _ : all relevant MX records point to non-existent hosts
Hi,

The domain.com is simply an example. Not the real one.

I am hoping that there is a flag somewhere I can disable so exim will ignore
this or maybe a tweak in the configuration.

I've tried the manualroute without luck. I add the following as the first
router

problemdomain:
driver = manualroute
domains = domain.com
transport = remote_smtp
route_list = IP.of.the.MX

But it is not working.
