http://www.exim.org/exim-html-4.66/doc/html/spec_html/ch39.html#id2704587 "It is not necessary to set any options to have TLS work in the smtp transport. If Exim is built with TLS support, and TLS is advertised by a server, the smtp transport always tries to start a TLS session. However, this can be prevented by setting hosts_avoid_tls (an option of the transport) to a list of server hosts for which TLS should not be used." # turn off TLS on SMTP sending hosts_avoid_tls = * # turn off TLS on SMTP sending for hostgator.com hosts_avoid_tls = 67.18.54.2 The usual hostlist rules apply.
