Many thanks - I did that this morning on several machines.

As a quick recipe for those looking for this temporary fix, insert into the
'MAIN CONFIGURATION SETTINGS' at the top of the file:

    # Bug in exim 4.88 - disable chunking:
    chunking_advertise_hosts = !*


In every smtp transport (ie where 'driver = smtp') insert:

    hosts_try_chunking = !*
