Current all email sent by these users is sent through exim - if they care to
circumvent that and use smtp then that is a different issue which I am not
attempting to address at the moment. I would like them to be able to set the
from address on the command line like a trusted user (ideally) but only if
the domain is the one that they are allowed to send mail from. I can kind
of manage it by having a different config file per user, and perhaps even a
different exim binary per user - but that is horrible!
