So there is only one physical machine and System, but
multiple (virtual?) MTAs on multiple IP's ?

Are those received-lines produced by the servers
you SENT to? So they all GET their mail from
the default IP of the physical machine (which
is the normal way for all outbound traffic).

Then you must force your 'virtually different'
MTAs to connect FROM the different local IPs
to wherever they shall send to.

This seems ONLY possible by setting Parameters
with '-oX ...' on the command-line and then using
$sending_ip_address to grab, from where the
daemon actually sends 'just now' ...

As far as I understand this, it is not possible
to select the outgoing IP from 'only one instance'
of an exim-daemon (which is, why I did not use
the concept at the end, but use only one IP now).
