Use SpamCop by all means
However Newsgroup reporting is not one of SpamCops strengths
Most postings are anonymous but usually name the posting machine not the 
posting host
Most do have an address to report abuse to

Once you have found the abuse address you are best advertise this in your 
group
such as
report this spam to
abuse<AT>whoever.com (do not use the @ as spammers runprograms to scrape 
email addresses off the internet
The more that report newsgroup spamming the more effect you become
