You'll want to fix that - MXs aren't allowed to be CNAMEs. You should
probably either set the MX to "personal.chrissearle.org", or change
mail.chrissearle.org from a CNAME to a plain old "A" record.

I'm unclear as to the logic you want of how to know what IP address to use for
each domain.
Something like this (untested) should work:
interface = ${lookup{$sender_address_domain}lsearch{/etc/exim4/interfaces} {$value}{88.198.38.80}}
where /etc/exim4/interfaces lists domain-to-IP mappings like this:
chrissearle.org: 78.47.168.125
wegner.no: 78.47.168.122
and 88.198.38.80 is your "default" IP address for domains not listed in that
file (including any "bounce" messages you might happen to send).
Is that the sort of thing you were after, or did you want something a bit more
"automatic"?
