Hi,
the last three lines (ifnedef - endif) can be IMHO deleted, because DIGEST-MD5 (and CRAM-MD5 and NTLM) do not send plaintext passwords, so should be allowed even on otherwise unencrypted connection.
Check if user Debian-exim is member of sasl group - to get access to /etc/sasldb2.

Thunderbird has separate auth setting for SMTP, hovewer you should specify the same user/pass as for IMAP. Check also the option "auth method" and set encrypted password - which is luser translation of DIGEST/CRAM-MD5.

Just because IMAP auth is done by cyrus and SMTP auth by exim ;) Check /var/log/exim/*log, there might be some hints...
