So, you use a "manualroute" router to direct messages from that user
(or from all users) destined to non-local domains to the smarthost.
http://www.exim.org/exim-html-current/doc/html/spec_html/ch20.html

starthost:
domains = !+local_domains
driver = manualroute
transport = remote_smtp
route_list = * smtp.example.com

You can add a condition selecting messages from that user.
