Google is violating standards, according to the OpenSSL library.

No, rather the Google MTA is not wasting valuable resources doing
unnecessary TLS-layer framing to avoid truncation attacks that
don't apply to SMTP, which does application-layer framing.


   "Goggle ... not wasting valuable resources".

[pause to let that statement sink in]

Given this early disconnect is a strict violation of the TLS standard it is not 
difficult to conclude where the problem is.



Exim really should be updated to ignore OpenSSL's truncation detection,
I don't recall whether that even already happened and the OP is running
an older version?


I rather think postfix is the codebase with the issues.
You are welcome to take your partisan sniping somewhere other than this list.
