dc_relay_nets='172.24.1.0/24'
on the basis you're using a /24 netmask there.
This configuration had been created with dpkg-reconfigure exim4.config.
No need to edit directly.
peter@dalton:~$ egrep -v '(^ *#)|(^ *$)' /etc/exim4/update-exim4.conf.conf
dc_eximconfig_configtype='smarthost'
dc_other_hostnames='dalton.pathology.ubc.ca'
dc_local_interfaces='::1 ; 172.24.1.1'
dc_readhost='dalton.invalid'
dc_relay_domains=''
dc_minimaldns='false'
dc_relay_nets='172.24.1.0/24'
dc_smarthost='secure369.websitewelcome.com'
CFILEMODE='644'
dc_use_split_config='false'
dc_hide_mailname='false'
dc_mailname_in_oh='true'
dc_localdelivery='mail_spool'
After the change, run update-exim4.conf and restart exim4.
It didn't work and there were no error messages on Dalton.
Then I realized that consequent to one of my inane blunders, Cantor was
calling his own address 172.24.1.2,. Fixed that to 172.24.1.1, Dalton,
and it works just as intended. Thanks!

Appears that in the default configuration, Exim4 copes with TLS, present
or not. And accepts a local connection with or without a password.
Thanks to both of you, ... Peter E.
