Actually, I'm not convinced that your transport
actually has "protocol = smtps". The TLS client-side
startup should be visible pretty soon after that "sendto"
(which initiates the TCP connection).

If you look backward in that file there should be a line
like "remote delivery to jgh@??? with transport=send_to_server1" -
take that transport name off the end and check it's
the transport in your config
that you are expecting. Then do
# exim -bP transport <the_transport_name>
to dump the actual config (at least, from a freshly loaded
config... you *did* restart exim after any config edits?)
