My AUTH PLAIN authenticator looks like this:
plain:
driver = plaintext
public_name = PLAIN
server_prompts = :
server_condition = \
${if and {{eq{$2}{user}} {eq{$3}{pass}}} {yes}{no} }
Note the lack of server prompts (unlike AUTH LOGIN).

What just kept prompting you? Were you running a manual SMTP session
via telnet or exim -bs? If so, did you pass the credentials
correctly?
For AUTH PLAIN, the credentials are sent as a single string
"\0user\0password", base-64 encoded, either on the AUTH command (in
which case there will be no prompt) or in reponse to the empty
prompt.
