Check the connection_max_messages option of the smtp transport:

http://www.exim.org/exim-html-current/doc/html/spec_html/ch30.html#id2689856

As it is not expanded, you can only use one different value for each
transport.

If you only want to decrease the maximum number of separate message
deliveries for some domains, you can split the corresponding router
and use 2 different transports that only differ in the setting of
connection_max_messages.
