Route them independently.

I'm using something like this here to separate mails to ETRN capable
domains on our backup MX. The listening daemon has an accept router that
calls the "etrnqueue" transport for +etrn_domains:

etrnqueue:
  driver = pipe
  use_bsmtp = yes
  user = exim
  group = exim
  batch_max = 100
  command = /path/to/exim -C /path/to/etrn.conf \
            -DETRN_DOMAIN=${domain} -bS -oMr etrnqueue


And in /etc/exim4/etrn.conf I use ETRN_DOMAIN to build a different spool
directory for each domain. Should easily adapt to your setup, Alan. The
messages will still pass (quickly) through the "main" queue, though.
