Did u edited the Files '/etc/email-addresses' and
'/etc/exim4/passwd.client'?

First one must contain your 'user:mail@???' which of course
must be THE adress, you are using at your ISP login and second one is
for the credentials, exim uses to login at the ISP smtp server.
'smtp.isp.com:user:pass' is the normal syntax.
