You could use an "internal" domain (e.g. "internal.your.domain") which
only resolves within your organisation and not externally. This wouldn't
actually need any special configuration within Exim (you'd just need to
add "internal.your.domain" to local_domains or similar), although you
would probably want to make your ACLs block incoming mail from outside
destined for "internal.your.domain" anyway, and also stop anyone sending
out from the server with an envelope sender of "*@internal.your.domain".
Both these could be done with simple rules in the RCPT ACL.
