I have located the following relevant info in "/usr/share/doc/exim4-config/README.Debian.gz":
If you want to set up exim as SMTP AUTH client for delivery to your internet access provider's smarthost put the name of the server, your login and password in /etc/exim4/passwd.client. See the man page for exim4-config_files(5) for more information about the required format. This works well for emails sent via my ISP. But I also have a "gmail" account (as a fallback - in case my ISP bombs out). _My_ ISP does not require SMTP-AUTH; the ISP used by one of my regular correspondents will not accept emails that do not have it. GMail offers relevant info on using "GMail + procmail"; nothing on using "GMail + exim4". My question is: Are there any problems with having more than one entry in my "etc/exim4/passwd.client" file?
