erm - I thought that _was_ proper TLS, negotiated after EHLO.

from spec.txt:

+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
|tls_advertise_hosts     | Use: main  |  Type: host list*  |    Default:
unset|
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+


When Exim is built with support for TLS encrypted connections, the
availability of the STARTTLS command to set up an encrypted session is
advertised in response to EHLO only to those client hosts that match this
option. See chapter 38 for details of Exim's support for TLS.


The session _seems_ to start, but then craps out before the client sends
the second EHLO.
