That's true. I suppose I should think about this issue.

The only way I can think of is to do a double-cycle through Exim. Route
each address to a pipe transport (adding the header). Make the pipe
transport obey the command

exim -f $sender_address new@ddress

That way, you'll get n different messages passed back into Exim. Then
route new@ddress to wherever you want.
