Perhaps you can detect that the email is of remote origin and and send
those emails out via a different public ip address, so if it gets snarled
up, locally sourced email isn't hurt. and noone else cares. and you have
a number of options.
user:
My emails atren't arriving on time!
admin:
They are mostly spam: see Acceptable Use. This is not my problem.
How about I give you a new email address?
How about you forward your gmail account to your mailbox here instead?
Due to a couple of bugs in exim the interface parameter (of the SMTP
transport) should be a string expansion (so that ther retry records
will be tagged to that ip address) and the ip address should
be a constant (else email from the queue can bleed onto the wrong
IP address). So use a string expansion that always returns the same
value.
