Configure smart host with authentication

[dodul]

Hi,

I am trying to configure Smart Host in my WHM web server. My smarthost provider requires SMTP authentication. I am using WHM 11.4

Thanks In advanced!

Can anyone give me some clues how to do it?

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
#

    #ignore verisign to prevent waste of bandwidth
    ignore_target_hosts = +loopback : 64.94.110.0/24
    headers_add = "${perl{mailtrapheaders}}"
    transport = remote_smtp

    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!
