Remove your domain from this file /var/qmail/control/rcpthosts
* *rcpthosts* (qmail-smtpd)
Default: every domain. The list of domains for which this host accepts
SMTP mail. It is extremely important that this file exist. If it
doesn't, qmail will accept mail destined for anywhere and will be an
"open relay," and a magnet for spammers.
Add the relay to this file /var/qmail/control/smtproutes
* *smtproutes* (qmail-remote)
Default: none. Explicit routes to use to deliver outgoing mail,
overriding MX data. Each line is of one of these forms:
(Domain):(IP Address)
domain:relay
domain:relay:port
anydomain.com:xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx //IP address
Domain is the domain in the destination email address, relay is the
name of the host to which to deliver the mail, and the optional port
is the port number if not the standard port 25.
The domain can use wildcards; if it starts with a dot, it matches any
target domain that ends with that domain. If the domain is empty, it
matches all addresses, providing "smarthost" routing to send all mail
to a single smarthost for delivery. If relay is empty, qmail uses the
standard MX lookup, letting you override a broader wildcard or
smarthost route.
Most systems can get by without smtproutes, but there are three
situations where it can come in handy. The first is a smarthost,
mentioned previously, if your computer is on a dialup, DSL, or cable
modem, and the smarthost is your ISP's outgoing mail server. The
second is to temporarily patch around broken MX records or mail
relays. The third is to route mail for private domains within your
network.
