I'm not sure, just a suggestions, the authentication facilities should have some logs, maybe it's worth the effort to check how the spammer is authenticating. If there are no such logs maybe we should look to implement some.

How exactly would you test this? You don't know when the spammer is
going to post. If you're advising that we just switch them off and wait
for a month, I'm not sure if it's a very good idea - I'd expect quite a
few users using these authentication methods. The issue is that we
haven't info on our userbase - who is using what, how many are using
what. If we can narrow down the methods that the spammer is using, we
can work on something to limit them.
