A successfull STARTTLS resets the session as if it were a new
connection (which it is, in a sense). The EHLO and response from
that preceded the STARTTLS negotiation are not applicable any more.
After successfull negotiation, the server returns a new welcome
banner and the client sends a fresh HELO/EHLO.

Your client is choosing to send HELO instead of EHLO. That is not in
exim's control.

Because it sends EHLO before STARTTLS.

What version of exim is running on that server? 4.10?

I see you're running 4.22 on the upgraded system. Peter already
mentioned that, prior to 4.20, exim would honor an AUTH request even
if it hadn't advertised it.

Hmmm. Question your assumptions.

Indeed. Trimmed:

OK, fresh (encrypted) connection starts here:

Client doesn't send EHLO, so AUTH is not advertised, so client can't
use AUTH.
