DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive dpkg-reconfigure exim4-config
does the same thing without requiring any typing.

I am not sure what you are trying to accomplish though.
dpkg-reconfigure does not reset the configuration to "factory
defaults" and the actual configuratiion file
/var/lib/exim4/config.autogenerated is generaed automatically by
update-exim4.conf when starting the daemon. Did you accidentally
delete /etc/exim4/update-exim4.conf.conf?
