Lee,

Thanks for your suggestion. I have been playing about with this, but not having much (any luck).

I'm using a single config file, this is what I've tried:

at the very top of the exim4.conf I've got the line
domainlist rbl_blockers = leeds.ac.uk

Then within the routers section I have:

rbl_blockers_via_smarthost:
driver = manualroute
domains = +rbl_blockers
transport = ntlworld
route_list = rbl_blockers smtp.ntlworld.com byname
debug_print = "R: rbl_blockers_via_smarthost for $local_part@$domain"
no_more

and finally within transports section I have:

ntlworld:
driver = smtp
hosts = smtp.ntlworld.com


I have also tried (as you suggested) transport=remote_smtp as well as various other incarnations of route_list and domains.

When sending an e-mail, exim shows R=dnslookup T=remote_smtp I have ensured my routers section entry is above the dnslookup entry.

Google hasn't been much help either :/

Any more suggestions?

Cheers,

-Jeff
