Not really - it's more about what I omit from the configuration. I have 
separate configurations for MSA and for MX servers. They're listening on 
different IP addresses on the same hosts. The MSA server simply avoids most of 
the ACLs that the MX server has. For example, I don't do a recipient 
verification test for an authenticated sender. I do, however, do a sender 
verification test - if the sender address fails, then bouncing the message 
would be pointless.

This does mean that I'm more liberal with accepting stuff that can't be tested 
in Exim after SMTP time. I could to better by routing the message stream 
through a more tightly controlled smart host.
