In the exim.conf you should find a config line with the path to the
maildir of the user. Just change this line and let exim reload it's
config (mostly near the local_delivery transport).
And of course, merge the old mail dirs into the new ones. Since the file
names should be unique, it could be done after pointing exim to the new
destination.
