Hello Ben,

I think there might be a misunderstanding. Exim has separate settings for
configuring TLS as listening daemon and for outgoing connections.
Almost every[1] single *tls* _main_ configuration option (incoming
connections) has a corresponding setting for the smtp transport
(outgoing connections).

The Debian configuration does the same, MAIN_TLS_* sets the changes
the respective main TLS setting with no effect on the transport
option.

[1] Except for gnutls_compat_mode which is deprecated anyway and
tls_advertise_hosts.
