^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
That seems to be the required hint.

Given this transport

smarthost_smtp:
driver = smtp
multi_domain
hosts_require_tls = *
tls_verify_hosts = *

we get different output for
»exim -bP transport smarthost_smtp | grep tls_verify_certificates«

with 4.92.2
tls_verify_certificates = system
and 4.95 rc0
tls_verify_certificates =

And indeed explicitely setting "tls_verify_certificates = system" on the
transport lets cert verification succeed.

(This also applies to the main configuration option
tls_verify_certificates, not just to the transport option. - It is also
empty by default.)
