Hi Andrew,
Thank you for the reply!
Can someone shed some light on this? Should I be using multiple routers with
an option I failed to find when reading the docs?
That might get exim to try more than one host each queue run.
However, if a smarthost is not responding, something is wrong.
You should be aiming for this not to happen.
If a smarthost does fail to respond, your aim is for something
sensible to happen eventually, not to try to maximise performance.
Thus I would be happy if the message is delivered by the next queue run.
I implemented hosts_override halfway but I dove into the docs again, and then
stumbled over fallback_hosts in the routers chapter and I think I got it now:
dnslookup:
driver = manualroute
transport = internal_smtp
route_list = * 192.168.84.30
no_more
the transport:
internal_smtp:
driver = smtp
interface = OUTGOING_INTERFACE
fallback_hosts = 192.168.84.31:192.168.84.32
seems to work as I test it. There's no other routers for that transport, so I
hope it's OK.
thank you again!
Maarten.
