It is only needed if you want to "tag" your outgoing messages from
your MUA. Unless the user is "trusted", Exim doesn't seem to allow
use of the `-f' option which TMDA uses this to set the message's
envelope sender address. Why do suspect this isn't needed? Is there
another way to allow users access to the `-f' option without making
them trusted?

Also, the server side (incoming) of TMDA doesn't care whether the user
account is "trusted" or not.

This is explained at:

AFAIK, there aren't yet any TMDA users running Exim as the first
Exim-compatible release was just released yesterday.

Also, if you have non-Exim-specific questions about TMDA, one of the
TMDA mailing lists would be the more appropriate place. See:

Cheers.
