Port 465 is ssmtp, i.e. immediate ssl-handshake on connection (instead
of the standardized STARTTLS command). The client sends fancy
ssl-packets while exim expects plaintext SMTP. - exim barfs.

You have to run a separate daemon on 465 with -tls-on-connect if you
want to offer ssmtp at all, decent clients can do STARTTLS anyway.
