Exim has a Dovecot connector which you may find easier to deal with (I
did.) This is off a working system (Ubuntu 14.04):

begin authenticators

dovecot_plain:
    driver = dovecot
    public_name = PLAIN
    server_socket = /var/run/dovecot/auth-client
    server_set_id = $auth1

dovecot_login:
    driver = dovecot
    public_name = LOGIN
    server_socket = /var/run/dovecot/auth-client
    server_set_id = $auth1

In /etc/dovecot/conf.d/10-master.conf
service auth {

...

  # Enables Exim to authenticate using Dovecot
  unix_listener auth-client {
    mode = 0660
    user = Debian-exim
  }


Sorry I didn't answer your actual question!

Cheers
