Re: Exim Rewriting rules problems



Hi,
    have a similar situation in the office. According to the Exim docs, Exim was
not made to handle this problem. The work arounds are:
1. to use two machines (the method I use) one as a smart host and the other for
local delivery of network mail
2. to use to installs of Exim on one machine, one running as a smart host and
the other for local mail delivery

It maybe possible to do this under another mta (sendmail?), but right now I use
Exim as I had two machines available. You should check the Exim docs at exim.org
for more info.
Sorry could not be of more help
