starting with the example configuration, what do I need to do to set up

It seems to me that the example configuration already has some things in
place for this, and that I need to somehow make it so that the MUAs can
authenticate themselves. Of course, the connections should be encrypted.
I haven't found a guide to this yet. What are best practises to do
this? A pointer to a good documentation about this, and any hints,
would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks --- I'm currently looking at it and got so far to be able to try
it out:
begin authenticators
PLAIN:
driver = plaintext
server_set_id = $auth2
server_prompts = :
server_condition = ${if pam{$2:$3}{1}{0}}
server_advertise_condition = ${if def:tls_cipher }
When I try to send an email over port 587, I'm getting entries in exims
log file like:
PLAIN authenticator failed for [fqdn] [<IP>]: 535 Incorrect
authentication data (set_id=[<username>]
Now I'm trying to figure out what's wrong. The user does exist as a
local user, and I'm using the right password. What might I be missing?
