+Exim and Dovecot SASL
+=====================
+
+Exim v4.64+ users can use Dovecot SASL instead of Cyrus SASL for authenticating
+SMTP clients.
+
+conf.d/10-master.conf
+---------------------
+
+---%<-------------------------------------------------------------------------
+service auth {
+...
+#SASL
+ unix_listener auth-client {
+ mode = 0660
+ user = mail
+ }
+...
+}
+---%<-------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+conf.d/10-auth.conf
+-------------------
+
+---%<-------------------------------------------------------------------------
+auth_mechanisms = plain login
+---%<-------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+exim.conf
+---------
+
+Create authenticators for Dovecot:
+
+---%<-------------------------------------------------------------------------
+dovecot_login:
+ driver = dovecot
+ public_name = LOGIN
+ server_socket = /var/run/dovecot/auth-client
+# setting server_set_id might break several headers in mails sent by
+authenticated smtp. So be careful.
+ server_set_id = $auth1
+
+dovecot_plain:
+ driver = dovecot
+ public_name = PLAIN
+ server_socket = /var/run/dovecot/auth-client
+ server_set_id = $auth1
+---%<-------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+If you are having problems with this not working ensure that you are using
+version 4.72 or greater of exim. Previous versions of exim have trouble with
+the version of the protocol used in Dovecot 2
