That's unclear. Could you give some specific examples of where
you want which addresses to be delivered?

: i can't get delivery to procmail via a .forward file to work
: properly.  the .forward file reads:
:
:       /usr/local/bin/procmail -f-


You need a vertical bar, as in:

|/usr/local/bin/procmail -f-

Not sure if you need quotes.....

There is an option to exim that will cause it to queue the mail
instead of attempting an immediate delivery. -odq, I think.
Modifying your mailing list software to use it should be
relatively easy....
