+1. The following instructions only apply if you choose implicit TLS (port 465) instead of `STARTTLS`. Skip to "restart `exim4`" if you are not using implicit TLS.
+
+    You need a TLS certificate. You can either use [Let's Encrypt](https://letsencrypt.org/), the `openssl` command or just let Exim generate it for you.
+
+    ``` bash
+    sudo bash /usr/share/doc/exim4-base/examples/exim-gencert
+    ```
+
+1. Now instruct Exim4 to use TLS and port 465:
+
+    In `/etc/exim4/exim4.conf.localmacros`, add:
+
+    ```
+    MAIN_TLS_ENABLE = 1
+    REMOTE_SMTP_SMARTHOST_HOSTS_REQUIRE_TLS = *
+    TLS_ON_CONNECT_PORTS = 465
+    REQUIRE_PROTOCOL = smtps
+    ```
+
+    In `/etc/exim4/exim4.conf.template`, CTRL+F for `REMOTE_SMTP_SMARTHOST_HOSTS_REQUIRE_TLS` and after the `ifdef` block add:
+
+    ```
+    .ifdef REQUIRE_PROTOCOL
+      protocol = REQUIRE_PROTOCOL
+    .endif
+    ```
+
+    CTRL+F for `MAIN_TLS_ENABLE` and inside the `ifdef` block add:
+
+    ```
+    .ifdef TLS_ON_CONNECT_PORTS
+      tls_on_connect_ports = TLS_ON_CONNECT_PORTS
+    .endif
+    ```
+
 1. Restart `exim4`:
 
     ``` bash
+    sudo update-exim4.conf
     sudo service exim4 restart
