excuse me, but doesn't the error tell you what you should do? If you
have no user and group exim, why are you setting EXIM_USER and
EXIM_GROUP to that value?
There is no need to use those specific values, choose something
sensible that does exist on the build system. For instance this could
be:

EXIM_USER=smmsp
EXIM_GROUP=mail
