Why in gods name would you want to share the same mail queue (with all
the attendant locking issues etc) across multiple machines?

Build a multi-tiered mail structure so that mail stays in your mail
queues for the minimum possible amount of time before being delivered to
the remote destination or shunted to a fallback mail queue.

it's with postfix / qmail rather than with exim but the principle is the
same)
