## Can mox deliver through a smarthost?
Yes, you can configure a "Transport" in mox.conf and configure "Routes" in
domains.conf to send some or all messages through the transport. A transport
can be an SMTP relay or authenticated submission, or making mox make outgoing
connections through a SOCKS proxy.
For an example, see https://www.xmox.nl/config/#hdr-example-transport. For
details about Transports and Routes, see
https://www.xmox.nl/config/#cfg-mox-conf-Transports and
https://www.xmox.nl/config/#cfg-domains-conf-Routes.
Remember to add the IP addresses of the transport to the SPF records of your
domains. Keep in mind some 3rd party submission servers may mishandle your
messages, for example by replacing your Message-Id header and thereby
invalidating your DKIM-signatures, or rejecting messages with more than one
DKIM-signature.
