I haven't looked into whether that "0 bytes" is an internal
length-wrapped length, or an indication of a zero-length write() from
the server, not being gracefully handled. Whichever, the server is
sending something "off", causing clients to complain.

Marc, if you run `exim -d+tls -oX 588 -bd` and connect to that instance,
you can see what _Exim_ sees from its TLS provider.

I might continue by seeing if you've configured tls_dhparam to point to
an empty file or the like.
