Hi
Apologies for the naive question, but my Exim skills are now very rusty.
We've been unexpectedly jumped onto a new ip address for our domain and
we have a problem with the address being cold. Consequently we've got
about 1000 yahoo and aol emails backed up over the last day or so.
Our service provider has provided us with a backup relay which we can
use, but we'd prefer to only send aol and yahoo emails through them.
We're using a simple setup using Debian's packaged configurations which
I guess we will need to tweak.
The Debian routers for our config (dc_eximconfig_configtype='internet') are as
follows:
dnslookup_relay_to_domains:
debug_print = "R: dnslookup_relay_to_domains for $local_part@$domain"
driver = dnslookup
domains = ! +local_domains : +relay_to_domains
transport = remote_smtp
same_domain_copy_routing = yes
no_more
dnslookup:
debug_print = "R: dnslookup for $local_part@$domain"
driver = dnslookup
domains = ! +local_domains
transport = remote_smtp
same_domain_copy_routing = yes
ignore_target_hosts = 0.0.0.0 : 0000::0000/0 : 127.0.0.0/8 : 192.168.0.0/16 :\
172.16.0.0/12 : 10.0.0.0/8 : 169.254.0.0/16 :\
255.255.255.255
no_more
What I believe I need to add is a block like this:
dns_yahoo_aol:
debug_print = "R: dnslookup_yahoo_aol for $local_part@$domain"
driver = dnslookup
domains = aol.com : yahoo.com
transport = remote_smtp_smarthost
route_list = mx.localrelay.com byname
same_domain_copy_routing = yes
no_more
The normal Debian exim4 config has
route_list = * DCsmarthost byname
and
host_find_failed = ignore
but I don't know if those are worth retaining.
Comments gratefully received.
Rory
