Thank you and that'll help quite a bit. I must admit I am not that 
familiar with exim configurations, since I can mostly rely on debian's 
configuration system.

Below applies to options 1a and 1b?

Would adding the "condition =" statement be enough to allow email to be 
sent out if delivered on port 24? I understand I should ask this on the 
debian exim list, but maybe someone has the answer.

Exim is configured to send to a smarthost and the below configuration 
section applies:

smarthost:
   debug_print = "R: smarthost for [EMAIL PROTECTED]"
   driver = manualroute
   domains = ! +local_domains
   transport = remote_smtp_smarthost
   route_list = * DCsmarthost byname
   host_find_failed = defer
   same_domain_copy_routing = yes

Apart from "condition = ${if =={$received_port}{24}}" what would I have 
to add/edit here to make the above work? I assume something like:

   driver = dnslookup
   domains = ! +local_domains
   transport = remote_smtp

But I am unsure as how to incorporate it in the configuration file.

Could I substitute $received_ip_address with the actual IP, 127.0.0.1 in 
this case? Of course this would not really be necessary since localhost 
can't be reached from the outside. But if I wouldn't do that and the 
listening port would be changed to an external there suddenly would be 
an open relay.

Thank you,
