I hope there is no reason to get bad reputation and all your recipients
are verified (read: they *want* the mail your server is sending).

You server probably will be identified in that order

    - by the sending ip
    - the used system name in EHLO
    - envelope from
    - message headers


All these things you can influence using one single exim instance.
(For the sending IP you need support from the operating system, it needs
to have several addresses).

I'm not sure if one single exim instance is suitable for blasting
several million messages in a short period of time. May be you need some
distributed setup, but it depends …
