May be an issue with GnuTLS?

I just downloaded the Ubuntu package source from launchpad and built
Exim with a minimal build configuration. And - voila - the variable does
not exist! I'm not able to build it with OpenSSL, as my installed -dev
libraries are not compatible with the old sources.

… some more checking.

src/exand.c:

#if defined(SUPPORT_TLS) && !defined(USE_GNUTLS)
  { "tls_sni",             vtype_stringptr,   &tls_in.sni },    /* mind the alphabetical order! */
#endif


But nevertheless, your Exim is vulnerable. Unfortunnatly the ACL trick
doesn't work. You can do "binary patching".
