How do I configure exim to use smart relay for specific destination domains?

I need to use Sendgrid to relay email for a specific destination domain - (ie if destination domain is example.com use Sendgrid, else use local relay). I have EXIM configured to send all mail through Sendgrid, but do not want to use this scenario. Can anyone provide a specific configuration / setup using "example.com"? My current set up in exim: SendGrid Relay : AUTH sendgrid_login: driver = plaintext public_name = LOGIN client_send = : username : password : PREROUTER send_via_sendgrid: driver = manualroute domains = ! +local_domains transport = sendgrid_smtp route_list = "* smtp.sendgrid.net::587 byname" host_find_failed = defer no_more : TRANSPORTSTART sendgrid_smtp: driver = smtp hosts = smtp.sendgrid.net hosts_require_auth = smtp.sendgrid.net hosts_require_tls = smtp.sendgrid.net

  There are multiple threads on this topic around the forums, try this one: Re: Forward certain domain emails to Smart Host - cPanel Forums

  Thanks! Because Sendgrid requires authentic, and that example suggests it doesn't work with auth, wondering if anyone can assist specifically with my scenario?

  I reviewed the referred posting from 2011 -- but it isn't what I'm looking for (it address how to direct a cpanel domain to send out via alternative MTA). What I want to do is for any of my cPanel clients who are using send email through their cPanel account, if they send an email to AOL.com (as an example) -- I want to use SendGrid to handle that outbound, instead of using the local EXIM MTA.

  Hi, Did you ever get a workable solution to this?

  Hello :) Could you elaborate on any specific solutions you have tried thus far? Or, have you yet to implement any custom EXIM rules? Thank you.
