    I do something similar but upside-down in the routers section (of my
    monolithic /etc/exim4.conf, because when I switched to Debian I already
    had a config file I'd heavily customized).

    problematic:
            driver = manualroute
            transport = remote_smtp
            route_list = * smtp.blueyonder.co.uk
            domains = bham.ac.uk:*.bham.ac.uk:uta.fi:*.uta.fi:[...]

    dnslookup:
            driver = dnslookup
            domains = ! +local_domains
            transport = remote_smtp
            ignore_target_hosts = 0.0.0.0 : 127.0.0.0/8
            no_more

    (followed by the local mail routers)

    The problem is that I discover a new domain is using one of these
    ignorant blacklists when the message bounces. I'd like to add a stanza
    after dnslookup and configure dnslookup so that when mail is rejected
    for such a reason, Exim automatically falls through to the next stanza,
    routes the mail through my ISP's server, and notifies the local
    postmaster that this has happened.

    Do you have any idea how to do this?
