I'm not sure, but as exim uses saslauthd for authentication purposes
this warning can IMO also be caused by saslauthd.

A few weeks ago, I switched to sasl. My authenticator looks like this:
sasl_plain:
driver = cyrus_sasl
public_name = PLAIN
#server_realm = server.linau.de
server_set_id = $1
I had to put the following lines into /usr/lib/sasl2/exim.conf:
pwcheck_method:saslauthd
log_level:9
As you can see, I'm also using saslauthd as backend.
Regards,
Christian Schmidt
