You can generally do this, but the way you do it varies with the
particular daemon you're using.  Some programs may just grab all the
interfaces without letting you tune.

For example, postfix uses the "inet_interfaces" option in
/etc/postfix/main.cf.

Privoxy has a similar option.

You'll really just have to check the docs.
