I use mail and have no problems with it and exim whatsoever. My
authenticators are slightly different, and both work (although I use
the cram-md5 one now, I did test both when I set it up some time ago):

begin authenticators

plain_login:
   driver           = plaintext
   public_name      = LOGIN
   server_prompts   = Username:: : Password::
   # only show on TLS-protected connections
   server_advertise_condition = ${if eq{$tls_cipher}{}{no}{yes}}
   server_condition =
${lookup{$1}lsearch{/etc/exim/domains/smtp-auth.pwd}\
                      {${if eq{$value}{$2}{yes}{no}}}{no}}
   server_set_id    = $1


cram_md5_login:
   driver        = cram_md5
   public_name   = CRAM-MD5
   server_advertise_condition = ${if eq{$tls_cipher}{}{no}{yes}}
   server_secret =
${lookup{$1}lsearch{/etc/exim/domains/smtp-auth.pwd}{$value}fail}
   server_set_id = $1


I don't inlcude a PLAIN authenticator at all (I guess that's one way of
forcing them to use LOGIN).
