At a glance, it seems pretty trivial to implement. Indeed, I think it
may involve no work on the Exim code at all. That's the kind of
development I *really* like. :-)

My guess (though I haven't worked it through) is that you could
configure Exim's plaintext authenticator to do this for you. It can
handle any number of data items (in this case 1), and it can test for
whether the session is encrypted or not.
