retitle #310771 4.50-6 unclear TLS docs
thanks
Please state in which way TLS is broken now. In my opinion, this is a
documentation issue.

That has probably been fixed in the current README.Debian. Can you
please verify with the current svn version,
http://svn.debian.org/wsvn/pkg-exim4/exim/trunk/debian/README.Debian?op=file&rev=0&sc=0

changelog.Debian.gz:
exim4 (4.50-6) unstable; urgency=low
* more macros in config. (mh)
exim4 (4.50-5) unstable; urgency=low
* Make Maildir location configurable via exim macro. Thanks to
Frederic Lehobey. (mh) Closes: #302215

Again, please cross-check with #305443.
