Subject: Re: [Exim] Authenticating against user account
Go to the exim web site (www.exim.org) download the sample configs
and look for C034:

"This is a HOW-TO for setting up Exim to support SMTP authentication
       under different environments, including regular password files, PAM
       and NIS."



then have a look at the docs for the TLS stuff (section 38):
