Public bug reported:
Only started in the last 2-3 days, exim stops delivering mail to
smarthost. Logs have error: "A TLS packet with unexpected length was
received"
Same symptoms on two servers delivering mail to smarthost. Ubuntu 12.04
LTS.
Simple solution:
Create file "00_localmacros" in /etc/exim4/conf.d/main
Insert the following two lines into the above file:
gnutls_compat_mode=true
gnutls_require_protocols=NORMAL:%COMPAT:-VERS-TLS1.1:-VERS-TLS1.2
As root, run dpkg-reconfigure exim4-config
(you don't need to change anything)
Then it just works.
More info: for me, both servers were using mail.iinet.net.au as
smarthosts, but from the info on the web, it seems wider than iinet.
