Ok I figured it out. The /var/run/courier/authdaemon was accessible
only by user & group daemon. I added the exim user to the daemon group
and now it works.
During these tests I have run exim in foreground (exim4 -d -bd) and I
have observed a long delay in the smtp transaction between the moment
when exim says "doing ident callback" and when things start to move
again. Is this normal? My exim4.conf is still available at
http://www.europerl.be/downloads/exim4.conf.
