I was thinking about some method of executing external programs. For
example server_condition = ${exec /usr/sbin/authorize_me {$1} {$2}}. Now
if authorize_me returns 0 then auth ok else auth failed. With
-rwsr-x--- root.exim /usr/sbin/authorize_me that shouldn't be security
problem if parameters were properly checked.

Maybe this is Exim 4 thing?
