If they're all from the same spambot, I do a single report and a single "# posts from $foo reported" posting. That appears to be sufficient notification.

Edit: I don't just say "spam reported" - theres a lag between a spambot's entire posting history being deleted and the "reported" posts being deleted, so some folks might wonder why I appear to have reported an on-topic post. I always include the spambot's "name" in my post - but I never quote the spam itself.
