debian manages to use a file with host names for auth.
by means of this in the transport
hosts_try_auth = <; ${if exists{CONFDIR/passwd.client} \
{\
${lookup{$host}nwildlsearch{CONFDIR/passwd.client}{$host_address}}\
}\
{} \
}
and this in the authenticator:
cram_md5:
driver = cram_md5
public_name = CRAM-MD5
client_name = ${extract{1}{:}{${lookup{$host}nwildlsearch{CONFDIR/passwd.client}{$value}fail}}}
client_secret = ${extract{2}{:}{${lookup{$host}nwildlsearch{CONFDIR/passwd.client}{$value}fail}}}
and a file like
example.com:username:password
Debian package name "exim4-config" if you want to look at the rest.
most archive magages should get you in. look at the files in
/etc/exim4/conf.d/
