simple debian upgrade and exim4/mailx failure

[carlo]

hi all,
i have another issue, but with a plain stable debian, no sparky or whatsoever:
as i've upgraded the system mailx isn't sending mails anymore...
i've tried anything i could i guess but the outcome is always the same:
here's the log of echo something | mailx and telnet the smtp server
