That variable contains the list of authenticators you have put in your
Exim configuration. If it is empty, it means you haven't defined any
authenticators. Check by running
exim -bP authenticators
If you don't define any authenticators, Exim knows it can't process
AUTH, so it doesn't advertise it. Simple, really.
