  Yes,
but sadly its not going to do you much good :(
The server in question is "smtp.cjsm.net" Its locked down by IP as well 
as cert.
I think it is a version of exim running, but its government run so not 
much chance of doing anything with it.
One of the engineers who was assigned to help me says that they have 
exchange servers connecting to it ok as well as sendmail, oh and not 
forgetting exim. In fact exim is the first mta that they mention in the 
docs.

This is why I setup a 2nd server.
Don't you just hate red tape.

Just out of interest do you know which of the extras in 
exim4-daemon-heavy is responsible for its non-GPL compliance when its 
linked against openssl?

Regards
Jon
