The problematic header line of the spool file seems to be the line
beginning with '-tls_ourcert', followed by the certificate string (line
is 2216 characters long). In  function 'spool_read_header' in spool_in.c
this header line is not processed because of the COMPILE_UTILITY macro
used when compiling eximon.

Unfortunately my knowledge of the exim code is too little to develop a
quick  patch.
