Before you go any further, PLEASE upgrade to the current Exim release!
There were serious security issues in pre 4.7X versions.

Even so..

Any system that uses that generated split-config toolset (Debian-only
AFAIK) comes complete with extensive docs.

More historical information, and more specific current help, are
available on the Debian specific mailing list (also pointed to in your
on-box docs).

MOST, though not all, on THIS list use the standard monolithic Exim
~/configure file, which may be less 'automated', but otherwise simpler.

AFAIK, that is also an option on Debian.

HTH,
