first, add an SA rule to detect mailing lists. for example

header H_FROM_ML ...
score H_FROM_ML 0.01

(actually, you will need multiple rules, then combine them with a meta).

then your header checks would become

/^X-Spam-Status: Yes, score=([8-9]|\d{2}).*H_FROM_ML/   ....

some notes:

- unless you are calling SA during the smtp transaction, you should not
reject mail (ie after it was queued by postfix)

- discarding mail is risky.

- spammers can forge list headers...

- There are other cases when you don't want to reject (mail to
ab...@example.com, ... etc).
