sending mail when connected via different ISPs
Setup:
Home LAN connected via ISDN router
kmail
exim
When I send e-mail, I can tell kmail to send the mail locally to sendmail,
which will queue it up and send it to my ISP. Or I can tell kmail to send it
directly to my ISP.
The problem is I often want to connect via a different ISP. My ISP (uklinux)
allows me to send mail via their servers when logged connected from a
different ISP, as long as I provide authorisation.
I can't figure out how to set things up to do this. I have the following in
/etc/exim.conf:
# Send all mail to a smarthost
smarthost:
driver = domainlist
transport = remote_smtp
route_list = "* mail.btinternet.com bydns_a"
end
BTInternet is my usual connection, but now I'm connecting a lot more to
different ISPs. I would like to set things up to always send mail via my
uklinux ISP, regardless of which ISP I've connected with. Is there a way to
put this authorization information (i.e. username/password) anywhere? There's
nowhere in kmail to enter username/password info for SMTP.
