--- Comment #9 from Jeremy Harris <jgh146exb@???> ---
Assuming that DNSSEC was not disabled at build time:

Exim always includes RES_USE_DNSSEC in the resolver options. It uses
res_search() to ask for lookups. It looks at the AD bit in the answer
structure.

Apart from worrying about RES_TRUSTAD, and shenanigans with AA which you have
sometimes to take as a proxy for AD, that's it. "TLSA lookup was dnssec"
means "The response with the TLSA in had the AD bit set".
