Use the same SMTP mail server that you would use if you were setting up
a Windows-based e-mail program. According to www.samspade.org, something
like ausmtp01.au.ibm.com or ausmtp02.au.ibm.com might work ;-)
I had to do the same at work myself. Set up exim to use either of those
(can you possibly list both ??) as "smart relays".
