- The "\026\…." *could* be the proxy v2 proxy header (not sure about the exact value)
- Do you send proxy headers? (send-proxy, or send-proxy-v2)
(proxy would start with "PROXY", v2 is binary only)
- Does Exim expect the proxy headers? (hosts_proxy = …)
I've a probably similar version running:
[haproxy]
listen mail
bind :993,:465
mode tcp
option tcplog
default-server send-proxy-v2 check verify none
option tcp-check
# check IMAPS
tcp-check connect port 993 ssl send-proxy
tcp-check expect rstring ^\*\sOK
tcp-check send x LOGOUT\r\n
# check SMTPS
tcp-check connect port 465 ssl send-proxy
tcp-check expect rstring ^220
tcp-check send QUIT\r\n
tcp-check expect rstring ^221
server a a.example.com
server b b.example.com
[exim]
...
hosts_proxy = x.x.x.x
daemon_smtp_ports = ... : 465
tls_on_connect_ports = 465
