I believe that putting the following in the authentication configuration
section will allow you to use PAM. You will just need to add a file
named /etc/pam.d/exim with the appropriate PAM config options

login:
  driver = plaintext
  public_name = LOGIN
  server_prompts = "Username:: : Password::"
  server_condition = "${if pam{$1:$2}{1}{0}}"
  server_set_id = $1
