Well, I think the main hits are Razor and Bayes, since the rest are generally
out of your control.  You can teach Bayes the message is ham, so that'll help
out the next time.  As for Razor, you can revoke the message, which may cause
Razor to lower the confidence (cf) on the message part, and possibly make it
not hit the rules anymore.

Do you want the scores to be site-wide (local.cf) or for a specific user
(user_prefs) ?
