What client are you using? Does this error appear there for any client?
- Thunderbird
- Swaks
- OpenSSL s_client
Who is sending the first FIN packet on the TCP connection? (I suppose,
it's the client.)
Probably the client doesn't like the server anymore. One of several possible
reasons: wrong server certificate.
The restart of the server may have "activated" a formerly "sleeping"
instance of the Exim binary brought there by an update w/o restarting
the Exim service.
