  Hello :) The following option is available under the "Mail" tab in "WHM Home " Service Configuration " Exim Configuration Manager": "Smarthost support" You can enter the smart host server name directly with this option. Thank you.

  Hi, Thanks a lot for your reply. I have already done that. And I have checked my exim can connect with the smarthost successfully. However, the issue is my smarthost requires SMTP authentication. And I cant figure how to provide SMTP authentication information to my exim. After adding manual route through Exim basic editor. I can see the below code has been added to my exim.conf boxtrapper_verify_dkim_lookuphost: driver = manualroute route_list = * outmail.profilter.co.uk::587 domains = ! +local_domains condition = "${if eq {$h_X-Boxtrapper:}{}{0}{1}}" #ignore verisign to prevent waste of bandwidth ignore_target_hosts = +loopback : 64.94.110.0/24 require_files = "+/var/cpanel/domain_keys/private/${sender_address_domain}" headers_add = "${perl{mailtrapheaders}}" transport = dkim_remote_smtp # # Lookup host router for remote smtp and ignores verisign site finder 'service' and uses domain keys # dkim_lookuphost: driver = manualroute route_list = * outmail.profilter.co.uk::587 domains = ! +local_domains #ignore verisign to prevent waste of bandwidth ignore_target_hosts = +loopback : 64.94.110.0/24 require_files = "+/var/cpanel/domain_keys/private/${sender_address_domain}" headers_add = "${perl{mailtrapheaders}}" transport = dkim_remote_smtp # # Lookup host router for remote smtp and ignores verisign site finder 'service' # This matches lookup exactly except we look for X-Boxtrapper: so we can determine # what is a boxtrapper generated message in the log. Note: there is nothing to # prevent X-Boxtrapper from being added to non-boxtrapper messages so this is for # logging reasons only # boxtrapper_verify_lookuphost: driver = manualroute route_list = * outmail.profilter.co.uk::587 domains = ! +local_domains condition = "${if eq {$h_X-Boxtrapper:}{}{0}{1}}" #ignore verisign to prevent waste of bandwidth ignore_target_hosts = +loopback : 64.94.110.0/24 headers_add = "${perl{mailtrapheaders}}" transport = remote_smtp # # Lookup host router for remote smtp and ignores verisign site finder 'service' # lookuphost: driver = manualroute route_list = * outmail.profilter.co.uk::587 domains = ! +local_domains #ignore verisign to prevent waste of bandwidth ignore_target_hosts = +loopback : 64.94.110.0/24 headers_add = "${perl{mailtrapheaders}}" transport = remote_smtp # This router routes to remote hosts over SMTP by explicit IP address, # given as a "domain literal" in the form [nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn]. The RFCs # require this facility, which is why it is enabled by default in Exim. # If you want to lock it out, set forbid_domain_literals in the main # configuration section above.
  Now, can some one guide me how to add the SMTP authentication info aswell ? Thanks in advanced! K
