I've got several of them, setting different headers depending on the
spam score, and a deny in the end if spam score is above 25.

  warn  message = X-Spam-Weight: 1 (5-10)
        condition = ${if > {$spam_score_int}{49}{1}{0}}
        condition = ${if < {$spam_score_int}{100}{1}{0}}
        spam = nobody


  warn  message = X-Spam-Weight: 2 (10-15)
        condition = ${if > {$spam_score_int}{99}{1}{0}}
        condition = ${if < {$spam_score_int}{150}{1}{0}}
        spam = nobody


...
