I have to echo these concerns. I came to Exim from Sendmail, mostly
because the debian .deb for sendmail is really badly broken, and I
didn't want to build sendmail from scratch again. Exim, while very
powerful, is really complicated.

It would help tremendously if there were canned configs available:

exim relay to smarthost
exim single domain
exim + dspam + sa

and so on.

I ended up hunting and gathering all over the web for snippets of config
files and had a hard time getting exim to work.

It's a real hurdle for those of us switching from other MTAs.

Back to the OP:

Your users shouldn't really have to mess with exim. You want something
like dovecot to give your users access to their mail, with squirrelmail
for the user interface.
