    Hello. Since our server's outgoing mail ports are blocked by the ISP , we would like to use a different SMTP server , mailgun.
    How would we go about doing such a thing? We would like to receive emails on our current local smtp server , but the outgoing mail needs to be sent via mailgun. Do I change the settings on exim or via DNS? How ?

    Even after following the tutorial in it's entirety , I still can't send the emails.
    The error I get (mail delivery) is :
    Code:
    Event: defer warning Sender User: mnoob Sender Domain: mydomain.com Sender: admin@mydomain.com Sent Time: Apr 26, 2017 4:50:16 PM Sender Host: mydomain.com Sender IP: myip Authentication: dovecot_plain Spam Score: Recipient: testmail@net.hr Delivered To: Delivery User: -system- Delivery Domain: Router: mailgun Transport: mailgun_transport Out Time: Apr 26, 2017 4:55:16 PM ID: 1d3OHM-0005nl-MB Delivery Host: Delivery IP: Size: 1.1 KB Result: Connection timed out
    Even the support at mailgun can't help with the issue.

    Hello,

    If your provider blocks outgoing traffic over port 25, try using port 2525 when configuring your smart host entries. EX:

    Code:
    smtp.mailgun.org::2525
    Thank you.
