This means your provider wants you to authenticate using SMTP auth.
You need a login and password (perhaps identical to your indial data).

From the exim documentation:

[ http://www.exim.org/exim-html-3.30/doc/html/spec_19.html#SEC554 ]

authenticate_hosts (smtp)

Type: host list
Default: unset

This option is available only when Exim is built to contain support for
at least one of the SMTP authentication mechanisms. It provides a list
of servers to which, provided they announce authentication support, Exim
will attempt to authenticate as a client when it connects. See chapter
35 for details.

You can not send TLS Mail there because the remote side is misconfigured.
It announces STARTTLS but then it fails.
Please talk to tunbridge.com.sg about fixing this.
