Yes, option "-d<selectors>", but it's not effective for access problems.

On the first, you should find the access violation point in your trace.

On the second, pay attentions to syscalls setuid(), seteuid(), setfsuid(),
setreuid(), setresuid() and their *gid() counterparts, also for setpgrp(),
setpgid(). If some of them emit errors, it's a trouble. My advice is to
light out regex "(uid|gid|grp)\(" in trace file.

And then try to understand what are attributes *uid/*gid of process
when Exim breaks on access. This way is not easy and obvious, yes.
