I think that if none of the hosts listed in the additional section is
reachable, exim should explicitly query for AAAA and A to make sure to
catch even the hosts that are not listed in the additional section.
This is, btw, not an ipv6 issue exclusively, it might happen in
ipv4-only setups as well. See Debian Bug #342619 for another example.
