Forward abuse@ for all domains to just one account.
Repeat for each role account.
Run spam assassin, or other spam limitting software of your choice
(realize that false positives are possible).
Do some matching to flag messages which mention domains / IP's you take
care of first, and then read the rest later.

Please, do no disable those accounts. Sometimes they are the only
obvious easy way to contact you.
