exim configuration, second router not used
Hi All,
I've got the following routers configured in my exim.conf file:
smarthost:
driver = domainlist
transport = remote_smtp
route_list = "* fermi.bjh bydns_a"
lookuphost:
driver = lookuphost
transport = remote_smtp
end
This is on a laptop. When the laptop is in the office, the first
router delivers email fine. However when I am outside the office I was
hoping that the first router would fail (as it can't look up fermi.dns
on the internal dns server), and then use the second router.
However it doesn't seem to ever use the second router. An example from
my log file looks like this:
2003-08-19 20:59:28 19p2vR-0000rs-00 Unfrozen by forced delivery
2003-08-19 20:59:29 19p2vR-0000rs-00 == bernie.hollaway@bjhcontrols.com.au R=smar thost defer (-1): lookup of host "fermi.bjh" failed in smarthost router
2003-08-19 20:59:29 19p4D3-0001fk-00 <= <> R=19p2vR-0000rs-00 U=mail P=local S=554
2003-08-19 20:59:29 19p2vR-0000rs-00 Frozen
2003-08-19 20:59:29 19p4D3-0001fk-00 => ghc <postmaster@gwolo> D=real_local T=local_delivery
2003-08-19 20:59:29 19p4D3-0001fk-00 Completed
The second email (id 19p4D3-0001fk-00) is a local mail telling me it
failed to deliver.
Can anyone tell me why my configuration is working? I had to comment
out smarthost to send any email!
Thanks,
Geoff
