Hello,

I've a strange problem with the connection timeout on an Exim 4.86:

Ignoring that the strange behavior of the receiving side (I explicitly
killed the client, so it closed the connection as seen in the logs) I'd
expect that the sending exim quit the connection after final_timeout
(not explicitly given, so it should be 10 minutes). Is there an
explanation why the sending exim is not closing the connection? Could
this be a regression as I've never seen that before?
