regex not matching when using procmail and spamassassin

[Robert Serphillips]

Here's my procmailrc file. It works fine. try using spamc instead of
calling spamassasin directly. Make sure to launch spamd in advance.


### Scan all incoming attatchments for virii and/or bad types
:0
* !^X-Virus-Scan:
* multipart
| /etc/emailscan/emailscan

### Only spam scan (spamassasin) messages that are smaller than 256k.
:0fw
* < 256000
| /usr/bin/spamc

### If message has been marked as spam by above, move to spam dir
:0:
* ^X-Spam-Status: Yes
/var/mail/spam/.
