Betreff: Re: [exim] lowest numbered MX record points to local host
Easiest is to use local_domains but have a verification step for the
shared hosting, so your interface where user add their domain, will
verify that the MX is pointed to your server Before allowing the
domain to be added to local_domains.

Eg, in the web interface where user add their domain, add something
like (assuming dnslookup() is a function that takes a domain and
record type and returns the first record):

if (dnslookup($user_domain, "MX") ne "yoursmtp.yourdomain.com") {
print "To add this domain you first need to set up your MX to Point to
us. We cannot add your domain without you first reconfiguring the MX,
for obvious security reasons".
}
