OK, if you're doing cost-dependent smarthost selection, then you
don't need smtp_bind_address statements.

Instead, the policy daemon would reply with one of the following:

    FILTER smtp:[smarthost1]
    FILTER smtp:[smarthost2]
    DUNNO

Also, no tweaking would be necessary at the routing level.
