Jeremy, thanks for note to use server_condition.
I reviewed the user guide here
http://exim.org/exim-html-current/doc/html/spec_html/ch-smtp_authentication.html
but I'm afraid I'm not familiar enough with Exim to translate this into code.
Could someone give an example how to use server_condition to whitelist either a port or IP address from a rule selected in Cpanel for " Require clients to connect with SSL or issue the STARTTLS command before they are allowed to authenticate with the server" ? Or, other workaround.

Manually edit /etc/exim.conf file (or use WHM/Cpanel, etc.) to whitelist port 26 from the rule turned ON in Cpanel for "Require clients to connect with SSL or issue the STARTTLS command before they are allowed to authenticate with the server", such that this rule does NOT apply to port 26 (but it DOES apply to port 25).
For either of those two, a suitable "server_condition" option on the
relevant authenticator definition.
