Yes, /var/run does exist. That wasn't my issue. It was that Exim needs
the full file name of the socket (/var/run/postgresql/.s.PGSQL.5432),
not just the directory (/var/run/postgresql) as other programs.

But I noticed that /var/run is a link to /run. I might change my
configurations to use /run directly. Not sure if that's better.

Hm, this prints more details, among others:

I'm not sure what's exactly invalid here. But it's not what I
configured either. This is the relevant config:

PGSQL_HOST = (/var/run/postgresql/)
PGSQL_USER = mailreader
PGSQL_DB   = dfctl
hide pgsql_servers = "PGSQL_HOST/PGSQL_DB/PGSQL_USER"


I can tell you at least one problem right off. Ubuntu 20.04 doesn't use
/var/run but /run. In fact, there IS NO /var/run directory! I had to
deal with the same thing for another program. I wound up just making a
symlink of /run in /var/run (i.e. ln -s /run /var/run) and that solved
the issue.  But you don't have to do that. Since your config shows
/var/run/postgresql then change it to /run/postgresql and see if that
doesn't help.
