No personal experience about the "heavy" Exim but Debian package
exim4-daemon-heavy has dependency on database libraries. Its description
says:

    In addition to the features already supported by exim4-daemon-light,
    exim4-daemon-heavy includes LDAP, sqlite, PostgreSQL and MySQL data
    lookups, [...]

If you want lighter version of Exim install exim4-daemon-light package
instead.
