    This seems a bit abnormal - are you trying to forward emails from test.com to some email that resides on an IP address (e.g. davidg@127.0.0.1)? Or are you just trying to have a remote mail server handle all your mail for that domain? If it is the latter, have you considered having a MX record that points to that server and configuring that server to accept mail for your domain?

    I am sorry for unclear explanation. What i am try to do is as following:
    We have a client which has it's own Exchange server, so he want us to work as a spam filter, meaning MX record going to point to our server and our server should perform spam check and send emails to clients Exchange.
    Hope this time it's more clear.

    I found it.
    All i need to do it to place following lines in ROUTERS CONFIGURATION section:
    smart_host_your_client:
    driver = manualroute
    route_list = client's_domain.com 123.123.123.123
    transport = remote_smtp
    Where client's_domain.com = client domain and 123.123.123.123 = client MTA IP

    10x to all

    Which router block did you put this? I'm trying to do something similar, only using a file to input the domains to forward, but I can't get the SPAM and ClamAV process to run on the incoming messages before they are passed onto the remote Exchange server.

    Thanks for any help!
