Exim uses the sendmail LDA interface which sadly does not support this.
I'd suggest using LMTP if you can, but I dee that Dovecot doesn't do LMTP.

How much do you lose if you use Exim's built-in local delivery? i.e. how
expensive is it for Dovecot to rebuild its indexes? Can it do so
incrementally if it knows the mailbox has only been appended?
