Betreff: Re: [Exim] Rebuilding Exim for SMTP authentication?
what type of auth do you need ?
i consider that you wanna auth on your upstream smtp server
so you must add to config file following

--- snip ---

######################################################################
#                   AUTHENTICATION CONFIGURATION                     #
######################################################################


fixed_plain:
driver = plaintext
public_name = PLAIN
client_send = ^<login>^<password>

# End of Exim configuration file

--- snip ---

then edit your Local/Makefile and add (uncomment) AUTH_PLAINTEXT=yes
to it .. then make makefile, make, make install, (re)start exim and
enjoy
