Are you sure this does what you think it does? I think this regex
reads like this :
0 or more occurences of
0 or more occurences of
0 or more occurences of
0 or more occurences of
0 or more occurences of
0 or more occurences of
0 or more occurences of
0 or more occurences of
0 or more occurences of
0 or more occurences of
a single space character
The other interpretation I can think of is that the regex fails to
compile.
Remember that '*' in a regex means "0 or more occurences of the
preceding item".
I think that rule should be
* X-Spam-Level: \*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*
but correct me if I'm wrong.

One solution is to use Marc Merlin's sa-exim function. I'm using this
right now.
Another solution would be to use a router that matches the header and
routes to ":fail:" (if you're using exim).
Once procmail has the message it is really hard to bounce
it because
o often the envelope sender (where to send the bounce) is no
longer known
o the MTA has completed delivery already, the "bounce" would
really be a brand new message
