There is no error since I am using dovecot authenticator. I already
checked the config in the case, everything works as it should.
The plaintext authenticator really needs to use $auth2 as the username.
For other authenticators, from the Exim documentation:
"For the other authenticators, server_condition can be used as an
additional authentication or authorization mechanism that is applied
after the other authenticator conditions succeed."
