Do you use a variable $header_... or $h_... in Exim config?
Such as $header_from: , $h_from: , $header_subject: , $h_subject:
11.5 Expansion items in Exim documentation/specification.
If yes then change to $rheader_...
If that helps then change to $bheader_... and tell us what works and what
doesn't. I more suspect broken iconv (charset conversion) in your system
than a problem with decoding.

Definitely spam (in Russian).

Most probably spam

Most probably too.

Most probably either spam or Nigerian scam.

Problems with messages in different charsets and the fact that
others don't complain of the same problem suggest that the problem
is local for your instance of Exim+OS.
What OS?
Exim version?
Did you compile Exim on the machine where it runs?
