Put the NT box in the smarthost line that ends in bydns_a, and change bydns_a to byname if you want a local address to work (I think there is a seperate way to specify an IP literal - check www.exim.org to make sure). bydns_a forces a dns lookup for the MX record, where byname sends directly to that box.HTH, Steve
well, i do not understand much of what you said. a newbie. i tried reading man exim and visited www.exim.org only to get more confused! by the way, the smarthost line does end in bydns_a and i am able to send mail to myself using mail command. for instance, i can execute mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] and the mail is indeed delivered!
its only when the address is remote, it is not delivered.
thanx again
