You can't telnet to an ssl port.
Use:
openssl s_client -connect [IP]:smtps
I'm sorry if I muddied the waters by suggesting using telnet.
I find it a useful tool to quickly test whether I can reach a port,
whether anything is listening, and whether the response is the same as
I got last time/when things were working, even if that response is
to connect for a few seconds and then disconnect (like 80 does).
And I can get the results from ten differnet ports in one screenful
of text.
A slight mistake; but now the OP is back on the right track all he
should have to do is issue the helo, mail from:, rcpt to: and data
commands to test whether sending mail is possible. If it is he can
then take a closer look at his exim setup.
OK, following the doc at http://www.debianhelp.co.uk/mail.htm, I
could enter:
HELO <my domain>
I always use EHLO but have no idea if it makes a difference.

MAIL FROM <account>@<mydomain>

but things get interesting when I enter the rcpt to:

RCPT TO: g...@extremeground.com
Shouldn't that be in <> according to rfc2821?
I just tried it with EHLO and using RCPT TO: <g...@extremeground.com> and got the same result.


The problem seems to have been the location of the protocol = smtps line. I had it originally in /etc/exim4/conf.d/transport/30_exim4-config_remote_smtp_smarthost. Moving it to /etc/exim4/exim4.conf.template seems to have done the trick.
