I don't use Netscape or know which flavor of regexps it supports, but I
don't know of any regexp pkg that lacks character-class support.  That is,
in Python regexp syntax,

    r"X-Spam-Whatever:\s+[6-9]"  # match >= 60%

    r"X-Spame-Whatever:\s+[0-5]" # match < 60%

    r"X-Spame-Whatever:\s+[2357]" # match int(spamprob/10) is prime

Only one that comes to mind is the numerics list, since this *is* about
numeric comparisons, and has the potential to become ugly <wink>>
