Here's the entire transport stanza:

    remote_smtp_smarthost:
      debug_print = "T: remote_smtp_smarthost for $local_part@$domain"
      driver = smtp
      port = 2525
      hosts_require_tls = mild.rhydd.org
      hosts_try_auth = <; ${if exists{CONFDIR/passwd.client} \
            {\
            ${lookup{$host}nwildlsearch{CONFDIR/passwd.client}{$host_address}}\
            }\
            {} \
          }
    .ifdef REMOTE_SMTP_SMARTHOST_HOSTS_AVOID_TLS
      hosts_avoid_tls = REMOTE_SMTP_SMARTHOST_HOSTS_AVOID_TLS
    .endif
    .ifdef REMOTE_SMTP_HEADERS_REWRITE
      headers_rewrite = REMOTE_SMTP_HEADERS_REWRITE
    .endif
    .ifdef REMOTE_SMTP_RETURN_PATH
      return_path = REMOTE_SMTP_RETURN_PATH
    .endif
    .ifdef REMOTE_SMTP_HELO_FROM_DNS
      helo_data=REMOTE_SMTP_HELO_DATA
    .endif

IIRC, only the port and the hosts_require_tls lines were added over the default
version of transport/30_exim4-config_remote_smtp_smarthost.
