the documentation for exim states that if there is a reference to
$local_part in any options in the transport, then batch processing of
local mesages is not possible (ie. disabled), so I believe that batch
processing shouldn't be happening in my case, since I have a reference
to $local_part.
What is more strange though, is if I try putting in the option anyway,
exim complains that there's no such option as batch_max is unknown.
