In Exim 3: use two directors, each with

domains = your.customers.domain

The first one is a "localuser" one and catches the ones that are to be
delivered locally. (If you are using local mail boxes that aren't the
same as actual local user names, you need something else, possibly
"aliasfile" with a list of the user names that are to be delivered
locally.) The second one is a "smartuser" one and it receives all the
addresses that are not cautght by the first one, and sends them on to
the customer's machine.

In Exim 4 those would be an "accept" router with the
"check_local_user" option and a "redirect" router.
