The relay_domains domainlist as you've got it implemented is a list of
domains anyone, anywhere can relay to. This is your problem. Change it to a
list of internal domains that this server is responsible for inbound
relaying for, or some similar concept in your setup. Or change it to nothing
at all.

Yep, if you can't rely on IP based controls, you need authentication. Your
ACL correctly uses auth_relay_hosts, all you need to do is get the
authenticators working and you're away. Exim doesn't inherently know the
difference between one of your uses on a DSL line and and a spammer trying
to relay.
