We're having good luck with two instances reading the standard SMTP port
with different addresses on the same machine. We haven't tried different
ports on one machine. (We're dealing with incoming mail to virtual domains
that way--they also want less filtering--so it's all handled with DNS...for
outgoing mail, you would have to train them to use a different SMTP server
name, but they wouldn't have to mess with the port number.
