According to the spec, this automatic behavior does not apply to the
"smtp" transport, but then batch_max isn't an option for the smtp
transport anyway. For using the smtp transport as you are using it, the
correct option is "max_rcpt = 1", which is not automatically determined
by exim.

Right, that was my mistake, batch_max only applies to
appendfile/pipe/lmtp transports, and defaults to 1 anyway. The correct
option is max_rcpt.
