But using different smtp ports... or listening to different IP addresses?

Perhaps with a specific route for your local_domain in exim.conf, something
like:
local_route:
driver = manualroute
transport = remote_smtp
route_list = \
local_domain exchange.mail.server
replace local_domain with the real domain, and exchange.mail.server with the
address and port (if different than smtp).
This rules has to go before the dnslookup one.

I haven't tested something like this, but the route_list is something I use to
avoid the bounced mails from some servers that don't like my dynamic IP address.
