I have a solution that works here (slightly different application but the same
principle.

Basically I setup the main address (in your case support) to be a directory.

This means that all the mail gets delivered as separate files.

Then a wee perl script wanders along (driven by cron) and redelivers the mails
according to your criteria.

I can think of no direct way of doing it in exim.
