Hi,
I tried enabling it as well and it seems to work:
$ echo CHECK_RCPT_SPF=true > /etc/exim4/conf.d/main/00_local_macro
$ update-exim4.conf --verbose --check
using non-split configuration scheme from /etc/exim4/exim4.conf.template
All ok, so make it effective.
Not AFAIK there is a suggested package that is needed for SPF so install that
before restart and real config.
$ apt-get install spf-tools-perl
$ update-exim4.conf --verbose
using non-split configuration scheme from /etc/exim4/exim4.conf.template
$ systemctl restart exim4
$ systemctl status exim4

Could you remove your modification of
/etc/exim4/conf.d/acl/30_exim4-config_check_rcpt and instead put it in
an extra file like I showed?
There is a doc that is valid for Dbeian and Ubuntu afaik, you can read more
about SPF checking with exim there.
