Package: exim4
Version: 4.34-4
Followup-For: Bug #291205


The problem with the AUTH LOGIN can be solved by adding the following
line to /etc/exim4/conf.d/auth/30_exim4-config_examples

Original configuration file:

login_saslauthd:
  driver = plaintext
  public_name = LOGIN
  # don't send system passwords over unencrypted connections
  server_advertise_condition = ${if eq{$tls_cipher}{}{0}{1}}
  server_condition = ${if saslauthd{{$1}{$2}}{1}{0}}
  server_set_id = $1

The changed version to get AUTH LOGIN working.
login_saslauthd:
  driver = plaintext
  public_name = LOGIN
  # don't send system passwords over unencrypted connections
  server_advertise_condition = ${if eq{$tls_cipher}{}{0}{1}}
  server_prompts = "Username:: : Password::"
  server_condition = ${if saslauthd{{$1}{$2}}{1}{0}}
  server_set_id = $1

I guess this should be added to default configuration.
