Thank you for doing so.<br>

I continued to investigate on my side and found the issue. It was a
configuration error that was not evidenced by an error message. I
described it in this e-mail:<a

Basically, I was using the auth-userdb instead of the auth-socket.
Instead of showing a protocol error in the logs and because the two
sockets have a compatible protocol, exim was blocking on
authentication.<br>
