What happens if you goof off in the middle of an opeartion, temporarily 
putting a wrong file instead of the new certificate, and exim starts 
delivering the new broken certificate right away ? or breaks ? or 
clients can't connect anymore with TLS ? or don't connect at all if you 
don't allow non-TLS connexions ?
