[Pkg-exim4-users] Authorization Setup Problem

My system is Sarge with a 2.6.11 kernel.  We have a Verizon DSL 
connection.  I can send and receive email with Mozilla and receive mail 
with fetchmail but I have not been able to setup exim4 to send mail from 
mutt.

With Mozilla  the setup is:

    Account Name: lists
    Your Name: Thomas H. George
    email address: lists at tomgeorge.info
    POP mail server
    server name: mail.tomgeorge.info  port 110
    user name: lists at tomgeorge.info
    Outgoing Server (SMTP) Settings
    server name: outgoing.verzison.net  port 25
    user name: dryden

With exim4 the setup using dpkg-reconfigure exim4-config is

    Split configuration into small files?: No
    mail sent by smarthost; received via SMTP or fetchmail
    System mail name: tomgeorge.info
    IP address to listen to: 127.0.0.1
    Other destinations for which mail is accepted: Left Blank
    Machines to relay for: Left Blank
    Machine handling outgoing mail for this host (smarthost): 
outgoing.verizion.net
    Hide local name in outgoing mail: No
    Keep number of DNS-queries minimal: No
   
In addition I have edited the file /etc/exim4/passwd.client adding a line

    mail.verizion.net:dryden:OurPassword

Somewhere I have gone wrong in the setup but, having tried various 
combinations without success, I need help.  I am attaching the the 
result of tail /var/log/exim4/mainlog in hopes this makes my mistake 
obvious and someone can put me straight.
