SpamAssassin/ Postfix AND Required_Hits

Does anyone know how to set different levels of Required_hits in the centralized Spamassassin Local.cf? What I want to do is if an email spam score is between 5 and 12 do a D_Reject. If the email spam score is above 12 do a D_Discard. I found an article on talking about using Milter.SpamC (the artcile refers to sendmail). The local.cf line would be:

required_hits 5 -r 7 -d 10

This would use the default required_hit level of 5, reject between 5-12, and discard emails above 12.

I tried this, but when I run the spamassassin --lint to test the syntax of the local.cf file. It errors out on this line? Is there another way to do this? I have all of our companys caught spam messages forwarding into our Exchange 2000 server mailbox account. I have to review these messages manually for false-positives. Lucky I do not have many false positives, but it still takes a considerable amount of time to review all 500 messages daily.
