Hello List,

I have installed a "Exim based E-Mail Server" with SMTP-AUTH in SSL/TLS mode
only, this works fine with all my MUA's (Outlook Express, Thunderbird,
etc.).
... but if i try a ssl connection from localhost with the command:

# openssl s_client -starttls smtp -host localhost -port 25
or
# openssl s_client -connect localhost:25

i get the error this error on the shell:

CONNECTED(00000003)
56194:error:140770FC:SSL routines:SSL23_GET_SERVER_HELLO:unknown
protocol:/usr/src/secure/lib/libssl/../../../crypto/openssl/ssl/s23_clnt.c:4
75:

in the rejectlogfile i get this:
SMTP protocol violation: synchronization error (input sent without waiting
for greeting): rejected connection from H=localhost [127.0.0.1]

OS: FreeBSD 4.8 (i know it's old :-)
Exim: exim-4.42+27

some config options:
@general:

hostlist hosts_require_auth = *
hostlist hosts_require_tls = *
hostlist auth_over_tls_hosts = *
tls_advertise_hosts = *
tls_certificate = /usr/local/etc/exim/exim.cert
tls_privatekey = /usr/local/etc/exim/exim.key
#auth_advertise_hosts = *
auth_advertise_hosts = ${if eq{$tls_cipher}{}{}{*}}

@ACL:

check_auth:
    accept hosts = *
    accept encrypted = *
    accept condition = ${if eq{${uc:$smtp_command_argument}}\
                        {CRAM-MD5}{yes}{no}}
    deny   message   = 503 Use of TLS required


@authentication
it's only a line not at fixed_cram,plain_login or fixed_login

server_advertise_condition = ${if eq{$tls_cipher}{}{no}{yes}}

i hope this is valid and not evil :-)

thanks and bye

PS: sorry for my MUA, the name and the spelling :)
PPS: if i start Exim in debugmode (exim -bd -d -q15m) i get this output:
