You probably need a router telling exim how to handle mail sent to mcubedsw.com - routers are run in order so stick something in before the dnslookup router - probably a manualroute router if your mail is handled by another system: new_router: driver = manualroute transport = remote_smtp domains = mcubedsw.com route_list = * host.that.accepts.mail.for.your.fastmail.setup Give that a go. Also you might want to stick a -d in your command line (exim -d -bt pi...@mcubedsw.com) - it'll give you a bit more information.
