Changed the exim.variables.conf.default tls_require_ciphers value to a more modern list. Be advised that older mail clients may not be able to connect with these newer values.<br>
Also removed the /etc/virtual/pophosts file from relay_hosts. This means if you want to use popb4smtp, set the custom value "hostlist relay_hosts=net-lsearch;/etc/virtual/pophosts".<br>
With this change, all email clients must use smtp-auth to send emails, which is better for tracking.
