It seems to depend strictly on software, not on certificates or other
configuration data (as far as I can tell). GNUTLS as a client (either
in exim or with gnutls-cli) won't send a certificate to an Exim4 server
built with OpenSSL. It will send it to a sendmail server built with
OpenSSL. In both cases the server will send its certificate to the
client, and the client indicates that it has verified the server's
certificate, but it won't send its own.

I haven't tried using GNUTLS on both ends of the connection, as none of
my exim servers are built with it.

Yes, I'm using the latest Debian sid packages of exim4-daemon-heavy and
GNUTLS.
