you don't actually want that... you want to allow those who

Split setup is a Debian invention,
Debian ships exim with the apropeiate check already in
acl/30_exim4-config_check_rcpt
You just need to setup the authenticator this is best
done by adding new a file modeled on the content of
auth/30_exim4-config_examples.
