Since there have been no responses so far, I'll respond even though I'm
not using Cyrus SASL in Exim yet.

The environment variables are a way to bypass the configuration for
Cyrus SASL; you should be able to set all relevant options in a
per-application configuration file, /usr/lib/sasl2/App.conf; I've never
actually had to do this, though. For exim, this will be
/usr/lib/sasl2/exim.conf (or /sasl/ instead of /sasl2/, or a /local/
somewhere in there, or whatever).

Sorry about the URL, since this is the Exim list, but the best SASL
guide that comes to mind is this one:
