If you don’t want to be emailed every time a spam comment is made go to:
Settings >> Discussion
Next to “E-mail me whenever” uncheck “A comment is held for moderation”.
To prevent spams use aksimet plugin. Also use a capctha plugin. A lot of spam is bot generated – meaning they are submitted by automated scripts not humans. Using a captcha prevents this.
