When you make tests with exim -bt, it shows you which router is used to forward that message.
|# exim -bt |> supp...@microsoft.com |supp...@microsoft.com | router = dnslookup, transport = remote_smtp As far as I understood, you already have some domains working just as they have to. Make test for any of them, and you will see which router forwards mail to the right location. Then go to the config file, and look at that router. For example, my router for external mail: |begin routers |dnslookup: | driver = dnslookup | domains = ! +local_domains | transport = remote_smtp So if I want to have some domain delivered locally, I add that domain to domainlist local_domains In router config you will see which list you have to update. Hope that helps.

Assuming you're going for option (2), I would suggest you: - Put your config on the web somewhere (e.g. your own web site, or a "pastebin"-style site) - If you're using lookup files, then include them too, or at least examples of what each lookup file looks like - If you do choose to make any edits to the data before posting it (e.g. for passwords or other sensitive data), please keep them to a minimum, and clearly state what data you've changed (so we know what's real and what's not) - see http://wiki.exim.org/DontObfuscate for more information - Then post back to this list with the URLs where we can read your config, clearly stating the problem (I do X, I want Y to happen, but Z happens instead) - Hope that someone will kindly volunteer their free time to tell you the answer to your problem.
