In looking around, it looks like advertising ESMTP is a suggestion, not
a requirement (but apparently some MTAs won't try EHLO if it doesn't see
ESMTP in the banner). That said, I don't think that's your problem.
In the exim.conf for incoming1.fijiescapes.com, look for
'message_size_limit' and set it higher.
