Hello,

The "Smarthost support" option under the "Mail" tab in "WHM Home >> Service Configuration >> Exim Configuration Manager >> Basic Editor" allows you to use a smart host for outgoing messages. The option is documented at:

Exim Configuration Manager - Basic Editor - Documentation - cPanel Documentation

Google also offers some information on using their email service for SMTP relay purposes:

SMTP relay: Route outgoing non-Gmail messages through Google - G Suite Administrator Help

Let us know if you have any questions.

Thank you.

Hello,

You can configure which email address notifications are forwarded to via:

"WHM Home » Server Contacts » Edit System Mail Preferences"

However, the forwarder action itself will go through the local cPanel server unless you choose another method such as SMS or PushBullet via:

"WHM Home » Server Contacts » Contact Manager"

Thank you.
