>From your exim.conf:


   # Always add X-Spam-Score and X-Spam-Report headers, using SA system-wide settings
   # (user "nobody"), no matter if over threshold or not.
   warn  message = X-Spam-Score: $spam_score ($spam_bar)
         spam = nobody:true
   warn  message = X-Spam-Report: $spam_report
         spam = nobody:true


Like the comment says, these headers will be added regardless of the
spam score. You want to only add the X-Spam-Report header if the message
is over the threshold, like this:

   warn  message = X-Spam-Report: $spam_report
         spam = nobody
