All you need to do is set Exim to deliver to a Maildir mailbox. See
chapter 15 of the specification. In particular 15.3 for details.

In short you need to build Exim with SUPPORT_MAILDIR in your
Local/Makefile and set maildir_format in your local delivery transport.

Personally I use:

local_delivery:
driver = appendfile
maildir_format
directory = /var/mail/${local_part}/Maildir
create_directory = true
check_string = ""
escape_string = ""
prefix = ""
suffix = ""
delivery_date_add
envelope_to_add
return_path_add

and use userdb with Courier IMAP. If you use any other auth method I
believe you'll have set directory to be appropriate for your users'
$HOME/Maildir
