Exim can either/both re-write a(ny) header and 'bump' it to a higher or lower
position, OR remove it and (optionally) replace it altogether.
- Have a look at the full source of the message and see if Trend Micro has
preserved the older header and just pushed it down the pile.
CAVEAT; Not much you can do if Trend Micro gets its mittens on the traffic AFTER
it has transited your Exim. But as to whether you can alter how Trend Micro
rates the message and makes the decision it is spam - sometimes you very much
can fix up the traffic to reduce that.
But you need more information as to what it is claiming is unwelcome.
