I'm also curious as to why a 0 would get flagged as possible spam?

This is my setup (keep in my mind I'm a total NOVICE)

I have freeBSD 5.4 installed with  EXIM CLAMAV SA

I'm not quite sure what you mean by "tools" and "calling"
I think* its EXIM calling it?

Assuming you are using Exiscan, you should have a section in your Exim config that looks like:

   warn message = X-Spam-Report: $spam_report
        condition = ${if <{$message_size}{100k}{1}{0}}
        spam = nobody:true

This says to add the Spam-Report header to every message (this is useful for debugging). The default report text assumes that the report will only be added to messages with a score above a certain threshold to be considered spam. So, if the text bothers you, you can either change the text or only add the report for messages with higher scores.

   warn message = X-Spam-Report: $spam_report
        condition = ${if <{$message_size}{100k}{1}{0}}
        spam = nobody:true
        condition = ${if >{$spam_score_int}{50}{1}{0}}

This will add the report for messages scoring over 5. Exiscan multiplies the score by 10 to get an integer.
