do you care about their IP if they are authenticated?

I would prefer two Exim instances anyway. I don't like to rely on
inetd, suddenly it decides the connection rate is too high and it drops
the service. if you're using stunnel in standalone daemon mode, where
is the advantage compared to an extra Exim daemon process?
