I don't know about exim 3.35, but I know that exim 3.36 can use LMTP, 
which we use here.

The nicest thing about LMTP is the exim delivers straight, without 
haveing to call cyrus's deliver.  This leads to less overhead, and 
better overall performance...

Also, we switched due to some odd problems with heavy load, and have 
been very happy with it.

Hope this helps,
B
