The definition of a smarthost is that _all_ nonlocal mail is forwarded
there.

Please tell us more about your setup, and what exactly you intend to do.

I guess that what you want is to forward mail for certain domains to
an internal host while your exim is the higest priority MX (so no
forwarding according to MX records can take place). If so, you're
looking for /etc/exim4/hubbed_hosts, which is documented in the
exim4_files man page.

Greetings
Marc
