i believe a reported post is reported to "all" moderators of that forum at the same time so if one misses it another will respond so things get acted on fairly quickly.
i have seen double reports from the same person before just to make sure it went through.
i cant see it as practical for the moderator to reply to the reporting member as that only invites requests for too much info on whats happening with the report.
that said i think maybe a website confirmation of "post has been reported" would be something usefull
and maybe neal will give you a can of spam kill flag for each spam thread you sink
