Exim ESMTP Banner delay

[stugster]

Hi all,

Since upgrading exim esmtp automagically overnight, from 4.85 to 4.86 the banner that is displayed on connect takes 13 seconds to appear.

On 4.85 when I telnet to port 25 it appears immediately. But when I connect to a box that's upgraded it's significantly longer.

220-cpanel.-my-domain-here.co.uk ESMTP Exim 4.86 #2 Tue, 13 Oct 2015 14:18:18 +0100
220-We do not authorize the use of this system to transport unsolicited,
220 and/or bulk e-mail.
