That, at it helps to know who to talk to :-)

I run an exim server in the same way as you do, forwarding a few
thousand mails a day to various Gmail accounts. I have a problem when I
send mail too fast to one account (mail loops), and when I forward too
much spam in a very short amount of time (broken dspam setup), but
apart from that I have no problems.

Daniel, throw me the file created by this off-list, and I'll take a
look:

tcpdump -ni <ext intreface, eth0/fxp0/etc> -s 1500 -w <some_file_to_save_to>
