Julian,

I would sure use this setup too.  I would use it as:

    #---deliver (hopefully) non-spam, less than 4
    <4     deliver

    #---deliver maybe-spam, range 4-9
    4      modify "{Spam?}", deliver

    #---let my procmail rules trap probable spam, range 9-12
    9      modify "{HIGH SPAM}", forward jaearick at colby.edu

    #---certain spam, delete it, range > 12
    >12    delete

Tis a great suggestion...
