Hello, I was wondering if I can use a CPanel server to send emails from another CPanel server whose IP is in blacklists.

  sure you can ( but if your other server got blacklisted you may get 2 servers IP's Just fyi)

  You can do this, but as @dalem suggested you should be cautious.

  I did setup 2 servers using the indications of these link Fortunately they are working fine, however in one of them I had to reset the EXIM configuration to default settings because it already had setup a manual route. I wish I would have done this only changing the manual router setup. Is this possible?

  You can modify the manual router at any point by either editing /etc/exim.conf.local or modifying the setup in the advanced editor for the exim configuration.

  What I did was to take a EXIM configuration backup from the server that is already working with the smarthost and restore it to the server I wanted to configure. Unfortunately it seems to be not working. Something I tested is making a telnet connection to the port 587 of the smarthost from the problematic server and it seems to be working, so I don't know what may be the problem.

  That could potentially leave a lot of loose ends, I'd suggest allowing our analysts to take a closer look. Can you please open a ticket using the link in my signature?
