Αντικείμενο: [exim] Exim TLS with ECC/ECDHE gives "incompatible objects" error

I have a setup with three public email relays (relay[1-3].thorcom.net)
each of which runs Exim 4.86 on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS with a fairly
heavy-weight anti-false email/anti-malware measures (RBL, SPF, DKIM,
Sender Verify, Recipient Verify, SRS, SpamAssassin, ClamAV, etc. etc.)

I run Exim on my personal box at home which has used a self-signed
RSA-2048 bit key for ages.

Tonight I have replaced the key with a shiny new Comodo PositiveSSL
multi-domain key/certificate that uses 384-bit ECC (curve secp384r1).

The new key works fine serving web pages via nginx but when I point Exim
to my new key/cert my box reports error 10071065 "elliptic curve
routines:EC_POINT_cmp:incompatible objects" on incoming connections from
remote hosts (ie. my relay servers) that present STARTTLS - see below...

Can anyone shed any light on this? and/or suggest a fix?


Mike
