Hi Marc,

I've not yet upgraded the two mail servers in question to etch, however looking in the one mail server we do have on etch shows the following single log entry for the default exim log period (10 days or so):

/var/log/exim4/mainlog.8.gz:2008-02-15 17:00:43 1JQ24M-0005wR-EX TLS error on connection to mailgate.mylor.com [80.176.71.10] (gnutls_handshake): The Diffie Hellman prime sent by the server is not acceptable (not long enough).

/var/log/exim4/mainlog.8.gz:2008-02-15 17:00:43 1JQ24M-0005wR-EX TLS session failure: delivering unencrypted to mailgate.mylor.com [80.176.71.10] (not in hosts_require_tls)

/var/log/exim4/mainlog.8.gz:2008-02-15 17:00:52 1JQ24M-0005wR-EX => roger.graffy at mylor.com R=dnslookup T=remote_smtp H=mailgate.mylor.com [80.176.71.10]

Whilst the error message above is not exactly the same as in my original report, it's close enough that it *may* be the same error with a more specific error message.

Let me know if there's anything else I can do.

Thanks for your continued hard work on the exim package. :-).

Ronny
