You don't need to count, you only need to know if the filename occurs.
True for my example, but in the real recipe there are actually over 180
different pathnames. I had never used scoring before and thought this
was a chance to give it a try. It also seemed the easiest way of doing
a very long logical OR.

* 1^1 ^Subject:.*\<ports/x11/xterm\>
| formail -I "X-Status: F"
As well as matching on ports/x11/xterm
it also matches on ports/x11/xterm-whatever
which I do not want.
So far, this would do:
* ^Subject:.*\<ports/x11/xterm\/\>
* ! MATCH ?? ^^-
The Subject line may contain one pathname/filename combination or
many. Thus the ability to detect the end of a word by encountering
either whitespace or newline is what I am looking for.
OK, that tells me why you were trying to count. Here's one that won't
get spoofed in the first place. If "whitespace" simply means a space:
* ^Subject:.*\<ports/x11/xterm( |$)
This seems to work quite well: I haven't had any false positives so far
and have had lots of true positives since I switched to your suggestion.
Many thanks.
Cheers,
Nick.
