It is likely that you will need to coerce DNSSEC support on in the resolver
library, by setting:
.code
Exim does not perform DNSSEC validation itself, instead leaving that to a
validating resolver (eg, unbound, or bind with suitable configuration).
-Exim does not (currently) check to see if the forward DNS was also secured
