Just report it to Google- almost all of the spammers come in through
Google Groups. The email headers will have the line
Organization: http://groups.google.com

Not sure how much of the headers Gmane (which I assume you're using
because of the line "X-Injected-Via-Gmane: http://gmane.org/" in your
headers) lets you see, so maybe someone familiar with that can comment
on this.
