So first you need to define how a program is to discover whether the
system is online or not.

Perhaps Exim should have an option along the lines of

dont_queue_if_exists = /some/file/name

and then some external agency could create or remove the file as
appropriate in order to control Exim's behaviour. It seems rather messy,
though.
