Here is a pop quiz:

Suppose you use the interface = option in a transport to set the
outgoing interface based on the incoming interface or the source
domain or something similar.

Under what conditions will exim ignore that, and deliver outgoing
messages from the "wrong" interface?

And is this a bug?
