I use my notebook everywhere and sometimes connect it to internet with
dial up or non trusted LAN. I'd like to let exim queue every mail I
write and only try to send them when I bring the ssh-tunnel up and
execute something like exim -q. My problem is that I couldn't make exim
believe that a local port is the remote relay host. I tryied to
configure exim with the option 2 at eximconfig (remote relay host) and use
localhost:ssh_redirected_port as my smart host but It sends me a mail
saying that localhost is a local address and doesn't deliver the message :(
