your router just has to use a different transport and after his work,
has to "goto" to the normal router .

This may accidently work, if not it's a start for your router. It has
the be the first in your router config to work proper:

copyrouter:
      driver = dnslookup
   transport = backup_smtp
   check_ancestor
   unseen
   more
   redirect_router = "NAME-OF-THE-NEXT-ROUTER"



I prefer this one, as it's not needing a new transport:

Add a normal forward router with the condition *@domain ( condition =
yes , or just remove it ;) ) and data set to " data =
${localpart}@backup.${domain} " . This would generate a new Message to a
subdomain and your dns will tell exim where this subdomain's MX is. Done.

You can find examples on the net about forward routers.
