Proposed for exim.conf:
domainlist external_mx_domains = lsearch;/etc/virtual/external_mx_domains
routing: domains = +external_mx_domains : ! +local_domains


What you decide is right for your Exim configuration file is up to you.
There's no change implied in the Exim codebase.
That's why the configuration is a file.

[exim-dev] add routing to external MX

[Jan Willem Stegink via Exim-dev]

Dear exim-dev@exim.org team,

My problem is that exim.conf does not offer to properly route external MX. 
Local delivery may be wrong.


  *   When a domain is created to be moved while testing and setting up:
Mail from another domain on the shared server goes to the preparated site 
unable to receive mail.


  *   When a domain has MS Exchange:
originaldomain.com -> forwardingdomain.com (exists on same shared server)-> 
externalmxdomain.com returns with No such recipient here.

You can also read my web page

Proposed for exim.conf:
domainlist external_mx_domains = lsearch;/etc/virtual/external_mx_domains
routing: domains = +external_mx_domains : ! +local_domains

Kind regards
Jan Willem Stegink
