I use saslauthd on FreeBSD which works very nicely. The authenticator
looks like this:

######################################################################
#                   AUTHENTICATION CONFIGURATION                     #
######################################################################


# There are no authenticator specifications in this default configuration file.

begin authenticators

plain:
    driver = plaintext
    public_name = PLAIN
    server_condition = ${if saslauthd{{$2}{$3}}{1}{0}}


login:
    driver = plaintext
    public_name = LOGIN
    server_prompts = "Username:: : Password::"
    server_condition = ${if saslauthd{{$1}{$2}}{1}{0}}


In this way, Exim queries saslauthd when provided with user/pass data
and in turn saslauthd checks the validity of the data against using the
configured method (PAM by default).
