We set ACL variables during various stages of ACL processing, and then
select a different transport/router depending on which ACL variable is
set. The interface is set in the specific transport, so I can tell
what IP it goes out on based on the selected transport.

To expand a little bit, we separate an internal /24 into 4 /26's.
Each transport uses an IP according to the type of email (smtp auth,
webmail, forwarded, locally generated), then have the PIX set to NAT
the outbound IP based on which /26 the exim box is sending from.  So I
can have about 60 exim machines before I run out of scalability.
We're a long ways away from that :-)
