From the specification:

| auth_advertise_hosts           Type: host list*                     Default: *

|
|     If any server authentication mechanisms are configured, Exim advertises
|     them in response to an EHLO command only if the calling host matches this
|     list. Otherwise, Exim does not advertise AUTH. Exim does not accept AUTH
|     commands from clients to which it has not advertised the availability of
|     AUTH. The advertising of individual authentication mechanisms can be
|     controlled by the use of the "server_advertise_condition" generic
|     authenticator option on the individual authenticators. See chapter 33 for
|     further details.
