You've nailed it yourself. Try this:

:0
* ^X-Spam-Status:[ 	]*yes
{
   ...
}

Between the [ and ] are a space (' ') and a tab ('      '). Because
the dot matches anything (except newlines), it goes all the way to the
baYES part like you suspected. By changing the . to [        ] it will
only match whitespace characters.
