Something when wrong when I created the tarball, I removed the tar
extension, so in this mail the correct attachment.

I would also like to point that signall 11 is SIGSEGV Core Invalid
memory reference aka segmentation fault that happens on the exim side,
that does not sound good, but I don't know why it is happening, I hope
somebody can help.

The postfix server has no other ssl_accept errors and is able to receive
tls secure mail from other servers. I just don't see what goes wrong.
