spam-report.el pinging too fast?

[Lars Magne Ingebrigtsen <larsi@gnus.org>]

I just saw the load on spam.gmane.org go to 120, so I grepped through
the access.log, and saw lots of stuff from spam-report.el there.  :-)

Now, the problem is that spam.php is slow, because it tries to give
sensible feedback on duplicate reports and stuff.  spam-report.el
doesn't wait for any response, though, which means that a user that
has a lot of spam to report will drive up the load.

So there's two solutions to this: Either spam-report.el could wait
for a response (and serialize the reports), or I could write a new
"programmatic" spam.php that queues the reports and does the real
handling of them later.

What do you think?
