Bug#311211: exim4: upgrade to 4.50-6 breaks smtp-auth client config

[Matt Walters]

Package: exim4
Version: 4.50-6
Severity: important

*** Please type your report below this line ***

I just realized today that after the May 26th or 27th testing upgrade to
version 4.50-6, none of my outgoing mail has been sent via my SSL and
AUTH-enabled smarthost (using /etc/exim4/passwd.client). I had not had
a problem for several months with exim4 as an auth ssl client.

My smtp server responds with: 

2005-05-29 15:49:53 1DcUjI-0006US-Ds ** foo@bar.com R=smarthost T=remote_smtp_smarthost: SMTP error from remote mailer after MAIL FROM:<matt@act> SIZE=1338: host smtp.umn.edu [160.94.23.48]: 530 5.0.0 Must issue an AUTH command first

I can submit fine using sylpheed's builtin MTA.

I don't know if it is related, but I was not receiving delivery failure
notices either after the upgrade since exim began attempting to send
them via the smarthost. Adding my hostname to "dc_other_hostnames" below
fixed this problem.
