It that's literally true, you've missed the preference out of the MX
record.

That is odd, because 'missing lookup type' should be given only if
${lookup is followed by something that is not a letter. You should get
'unknown lookup type' if you try to use a type that is not included.

Try running 'exim -be' and test some expansions. For example:

exim -be '${lookup dnsdb {$domain}{$value}fail}'
