Thanks Phil, already tried it but didn't worked.
Any other possible solutions? At least to have it with TLS and no openrelay
and user/pass combo?
Thanks.

I have Cyrus storing authentication data in /usr/local/etc/sasldb2; the
daemons for authentication with Cyrus don't help, because they don't
provide the plaintext password, which is needed for the cram-* methods.
So I use a filesystem ACL (man getfacl(1), setfacl(1)) to grant
user:exim:r-- access to the sasldb2 file, so that the Exim runtime user
can access the file too.
Then in the Exim configuration file (given with "exim --version"), after
the "begin authenticators" line (and before the next "begin" line):
auth_digest_md5:
driver = cyrus_sasl
public_name = DIGEST-MD5
server_hostname = smtp.spodhuis.org
# need the realm used after @ in the sasldb2 file:
server_realm = imap.spodhuis.org
server_advertise_condition = ${if and{\
{!def:authenticated_id}\
{forany{465:587}{=={$received_port}{$item}}}\
{def:tls_cipher}\
} {yes}{no}}
You can repeat that, with a different public_name (and authenticator
_name_) for other auth methods.
That gets Exim; for POP3 and IMAP, you need to configure Cyrus IMAPd; in
imapd.conf:
servername: imap.spodhuis.org
sasl_pwcheck_method: auxprop
sasl_auxprop_plugin: sasldb
So I think (but it's been years since I set it up) the same servername
from imapd.conf is what you will need to set as the server_realm in
Exim, because it's used in the keys for storing data in sasldb2.
