route email traffice btw two nic cards

I have a computer with two nic's installed.
N1 192.168.0.x 255.255.255.0 ; N2 172.18.135.x 255.255.255.0
I would like to route all outlook email traffic from N1 to N2
I have tried a lot of combination of the following "route" command
all with an invalid parameter error message. I'm using the CMD with
elevated admin. any help would be appreciated.

ROUTE ADD 192.168.0.11 MASK 255.255.255.0 172.18.135.48 yields invalid param error
ROUTE ADD 192.168.0.11 255.255.255.0 172.18.135.48 yields invalid param error
ROUTE ADD 192.168.0.11 MASK 255.255.255.0 GATEWAY 127.0.0.1 172.18.135.48 yields invalid param error
ROUTE ADD 192.168.0.11 MASK 255.255.255.0 127.0.0.1 172.18.135.48 yields invalid param error

Your mask is wrong. I assume you want to change the route for just 192.168.0.11/32

ROUTE ADD 192.168.0.11 MASK 255.255.255.255 172.18.135.48

route ADD destination_network MASK subnet_mask  gateway_ip [metric_cost] [-p] [if if_no]

Note: I don't see how adding a route will solve your problem.
If the IP on N1 is 192.168.0.2/24, any traffic with the destination 192.168.0.x will be resolved by ARP, not routes.
