Make sure your routers section looks like this:
######################################################################
# ROUTERS CONFIGURATION #
# Specifies how remote addresses are handled #
######################################################################
# ORDER DOES MATTER #
# A remote address is passed to each in turn until it is accepted. #
######################################################################
# Remote addresses are those with a domain that does not match any
item
# in the "local_domains" setting above.
# Send all mail to a smarthost
smarthost:
driver = domainlist
transport = remote_smtp
route_list = "* mailhub.provider.com bydns_a"
end
