Show log, get better help. Please don't obfuscate anything.

transports are for outgoing mails, but you need to configure your Exim
for incoming mails.

First, have a look at "tls_advertise_hosts" and then at
"auth_advertise_hosts"

Example from my config:

# Advertise TLS to everyone but 10.19.78.1
tls_advertise_hosts = !10.19.78.1 : *

# Advertise AUTH only if $tls_cipher is set
auth_advertise_hosts = ${if eq{$tls_cipher}{}{}{*}}

In your case, you need to adapt those two settings.
(Of course, allowing non-CHAP-AUTH without TLS is a potentially bad idea.)
