If you can, place the correct handling for these messages first. Exim
tries Routers in order. It sounds as though correct placement and/or
domainlist constraints on Routers should fix the issue.
If this isn't viable, then you can change what the Router does when it
discovers that you're trying to pass the message onto itself. This is
controlled with the "self" option. "self = pass" will effectively have
the Router decline the message, so that the next Router tries it (just
with $self_hostname tacked in as an additional variable available for
expansion).

for more on "self" and the values available.
