As others have said, you are more likely to get a useful response from the
Debian people.
One possiblity is that SELinux contexts are involved
man -k selinux_restorecon
or
man -k restorecon
may give you a hint as to where to start.

I already done that, and exim4 is running as the right user.
The problem is that some script that is in the debian distribution that runs
periodically, are changing the owner of the /var/spool/exim directory to
Debian-exim, causing lots of permission errors.
I need some help with tracking down that script, so I can change the user
inside that script to exim aswell.

Debian-exim?
If you do not want to use the Debian-exim user, you may override the
compiled user by setting:
exim_user exim
exim_group exim

I have got a little problem with my exim installation in debian.
I have compiled exim from source and installed. However, since I don't
want
to compile all libraries aswell, I have chosen to install the
corresponding
debian packages for these libraries.
One of these libraries are changing the user rights for the spool folder
to
Debian-exim all the time. (instead of exim that is the correct user).
Sure?
- When does it happen? At startup of Exim?
- Which Exim related *Debian* packages are still installed?
- How do you start your self-built Exim?
