Procmail is a weird and magical beast and its ways are most mysterious.
Meaning it's a big pain in the ass for new users and old, tired users
are not willing to build something more friendly because they've all
suffered through making it work for them. See also: vi, emacs.

I'm using
:0H
* ^X-spam-status: yes
{
# do something ...
}
The braces and the 'H' are probably unnecessary.
Try adding the following to the top of .procmailrc (adjust home
directory as necessary):
HOME=/path/to/your/home/directory
VERBOSE=yes
LOGFILE=${HOME}/procmail.log
DROPPRIVS=yes
Check procmail.log for clues.
Also, try using
:0 H
* ^X-Spam-Level:[ ]*\*\*\*\*\*\*
/dev/null
where [ ] = [<space><tab>]*
