What are you authenticators? Afaik Outlook uses LOGIN and it's very
picky about server_prompts - it want them to be Username: and Password:
(note the trailing colon). Make sure you have defined one.
Here's a (working) example:
login:
driver = plaintext
public_name = LOGIN
server_prompts = Username:: : Password::
server_condition = ${lookup pgsql {SELECT password FROM users \
WHERE username='${quote_pgsql:$1}' \
AND password='${quote_pgsql:$2}' \
AND active='y'} {yes} {no}}
server_set_id = $1
You didn't really need to patch Exim - it's (or at least, it should be!)
possible to force Outlook to use authenticated SMTP.
