I receive mail with fetchmail which works fine.
My system receives mail as [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Local mail works fine.
I send mail with exim which works except in my ISP's domain.
When I send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] it is
seen as local mail to an unknown user.
How should I make this work?

Whether or not to use a smarthost or to make your own host smart is a
