Yes. I agree. I had to close the loophole, by requiring authentication
before relay for everyone, including localhost. (Stunnel makes incoming
connections look like they are coming from localhost, instead of the actual
remote host).

I recommend going with the all-Exim method; but IIRC, you'll need Exim 4 to
make that work.
