I'm going to agree with that.

Looking on the site, i can't see any reason why you wouldn't either try to read the datasource that dovecot is storing info in or -- do something really crazy -- store the data in something that both exim and dovecot can access

It's not authentication specific.  exim can do lsearch, cdb, dbm,
ldap, sql, etc. to look up data for any purpose you need, including
looking up valid usernames and passwords.  Dovecot supports many of
these same lookup types.

The question was simply this: in what type of database is Dovecot
keeping the username/password data it uses to authenticate, and does
exim not already have the ability to access that database directly?

If it does, you do not need the feature you are asking for to
accomplish what you want to do (eliminate cyrus-sasl).
