That sounds like you didn't compile in SSL/TLS support at all.

Look at the output of 'exim -bV | egrep Support' - you should have
something like this:

Support for: crypteq iconv() IPv6 PAM OpenSSL Content_Scanning DKIM PRDR
OCSP Experimental_DCC

Replace OpenSSL with GnuTLS in your case; if it isn't there, go back to
your build and make sure you've got the right options set in
Local/Makefile.
