On many, many occasions, the work of the moderator included marking such topics as closed when it was apparent, or when the topic became the target of spam comments etc. It’s one of a large number of tasks that were undertaken manually, behind the scenes

ManagerA quick online search suggested it’s not something Excel does without some form of add-in (usually premium…).
I dare say there would be a VBA formula to address the situation, if one was to get knee-deep into it
Good luck! -

To help spread holiday cheer, Microsoft Store has surprised a total of 50,000 U.S. customers with virtual gift cards via email. 25,000 customers will receive a $100 Microsoft Gift Card while 25,000 others will receive a $10 Microsoft Gift Card ahead of this holiday season. These randomly selected recipients can redeem their gift card on Microsoft Store through December 31, 2021 and spend it within 90 days of redemption.

ManagerYou can also report malspam to blacklists such as Cleantalk. Where an email address has already been marked as spam in cleantalk, you can add details of your contact at the bottom of the page; if it hasn’t been previously reported as spam, use the Report IP link, where you can also report on email addresses.
Additionally, the IP address found in the header can similarly be added to blacklists. See WhatIsMyIPAddress.com’s Trace Email page.
