exim and DoD - ipv6 dns lookup



Hi !

In the last days, I were configuring my dial on demand (DoD) ppp daemon.
It's working nearly fine and the past messages about exim were
interesting. I used some info from there, but now I have a new problem:

marvin is my mailserver and gateway. It is running exim. When I connect
to smtp on marvin from another computer (telnet marvin 25), exim does an
ipv6 dns lookup for "marvin" which fires up my DoD line :(  

Apr  2 12:55:32 marvin named[2315]: query log on 
Apr  2 12:56:22 marvin named[2315]:
XX+/192.168.42.103/marvin.galaxy.home/AAAA/IN Apr  2 12:56:22 marvin
named[2315]: ns_forw: sendto([129.187.10.25].53): Network is unreachable
Apr  2 12:56:22 marvin named[2315]:
XX+/192.168.42.103/marvin.galaxy.home/AAAA/IN Apr  2 12:56:22 marvin
named[2315]: XX+/192.168.42.103/marvin/AAAA/IN Apr  2 12:56:23 marvin
named[2315]: XX+/192.168.42.103/marvin/AAAA/IN Apr  2 12:57:14 marvin
named[2315]: query log off 

According to the recent messages, I put

primary_hostname = marvin.galaxy.home

in exim.conf, but this didn't help for ipv6 :(
How can I switch off this behaviour ?

TIA a lot,
