Does the above mean Exim is contacting [217.175.192.143] to verify the certificate for [45.86.117.1]? Technically SSL certificates are not issued to IP addresses, but hostnames - so I'm a bit stumped. I searched in Google for "Exim S-verify" - but so far couldn't find anything that makes sense in the context.

You were doing a sender-verify callout, for a mail being received from [45.86.117.1].

The callout was being done to [217.175.192.143], and Exim noted a problem with the
certificate that the responding system at that IP offered during TLS startup for
the callout connection. "Name mismatch" means that none of the SANs, nor the CN,
on the certificate matches the DNS name of that system.
