Exim 4 pipe undefined domains

I am running a server with the standard cPanel mail configuration (exim, dovecot). I'm using Exim4 as my MTA. I have set up dynamic DNS, and do not want to set up cPanel accounts for every domain that resolves to my server, which there are a lot of. I do want to be able to receive e-mails sent to those though, by running a script. I am trying to find out how to set up a router/transport which pipes all emails sent to a domain for which there is no mailbox (or account) to a script. Basically, I want a catch-all router for all domains that resolve to my server, which would pipe the email to the script when it would normally send a "550 unroutable address" error message back. But the addresses for which a mailbox exists, have to behave normally. An alternative would be to pipe all incoming mail to the script, but Exim only pipes emails for which the domain is defined. I want to be able to receive mails for undefines domains as well, or be able to dynamically define those domains. Does anyone know how to set up exim correctly? I don't

  Hello, You could likely setup a custom router with Exim to accept the messages. Here are a couple of examples I found that should help you get started: Catchall Router on Exim does not work exim configuration - accept all mail The following thread explains how to setup a custom router for Exim on cPanel: How to use CPanel Advanced Exim editor? Thank you.
