Well, it got me further along. Now I'm wondering if what I want to do is
possible.

The acl I'm trying to troubleshoot is later on in the list:

  deny    message       = Unauthorized use of SMTPA by $authenticated_id -
contact IT Services for assistance

          authenticated = *

          condition     = ${lookup
{$authenticated_id}lsearch{/etc/exim/allowed_accounts}{no}{yes} }

          log_message   = auth_rejection not_allowed $authenticated_id


I don't know why, but that never fires, even though I get beaucoup failed
authentications which I'd think it should catch. I've been trying to get to
it with exim -bh, but now I'm wondering: Is there any way to get past
STARTTLS? There's no -oMx option for passing a certificate, so how would I
proceed from here in the SMTP dialogue?


STARTTLS

>>> host in tls_resumption_hosts? no (option unset)

>>> host in tls_verify_hosts? no (option unset)

>>> host in tls_try_verify_hosts? no (option unset)

220 TLS go ahead


Nothing I try there gets me past, and I'm thinking now, given what I can
tell exim, maybe I shouldn't be able to get past it. Is that correct?
