If you don't want to run tmda-ofmipd (for whatever reason, I haven't
used it, so I have no opionion about it), and you are willing to use
exim as your MTA, then exim can do what tmda-ofmipd does, as far as I
understand it (I'm not sure about e.g. exactly which models of
authentication are supported by both options, but they certainly both 
support authentication). 

I use exim in this way to filter my outgoing mail through TMDA.  If
you look in the FAQ and in the archives of this list, you will see
several example configurations.

One reason that I prefer to run exim is that it supports a pseudo-SMTP
session on stdin and stdout, letting me ssh into a host and run exim
as a server without futzing about with tunnelling. 

As always, your mileage may vary.
