All you need are your authenticators ... I use cyrus pwcheck to authenticate
users.
accept hosts = +relay_from_hosts
accept authenticated = *
in the main section of your config and ...
begin authenticators
plainns:
driver = plaintext
public_name = PLAIN
server_condition = "${if pwcheck{$2:$3}{1}{0}}"
server_set_id = $2
login:
driver = plaintext
public_name = LOGIN
server_prompts = "Username:: : Password::"
server_condition = "${if pwcheck{$1:$2}{1}{0}}"
server_set_id = $1
This has been around since exim 4.03 (I think) when pwcheck auth first
appeared. Now at exim 4.10
