Certainly easier than to qmail.
Out of the box, exim supports aliases and .forward files.
For mailertable, you add a domainlist router. The format of the table is
slightly different.
For access.db, you probably want to set hosts_accept_relay (which IP
addresses we allow relaying _from_) and relay_domains (which domains we
allow relaying _to_). Other types of access.db entries can be implemented
using other exim policy settings, although these are rarely used.
I don't know what you mean by 'sendmail.db'

I've never used sendmail and virtusertable. I think it has entries of the
form:
user1 at domain1: user2
That is easily done in exim using an additional aliasfile director with the
'include_domain' setting.
Entries of the form
at domain1: %1 at domain2
will have to be rewritten as:
* at domain1: $local_part at domain2
Give some examples of the files you're trying to implement, and we can build
an updated config for you on this list...
Cheers,
Brian.
