Mass delete all posts along with spammer

I have an Elk forum I don't visit too often and noticed a spammer had posted close to 40 spam posts.  Is there a way of deleting all his posts at once along with the spammer?

When you go to the spammer profile to delete the account, you select also to delete all the posts and topics along with the account.

I like to ban them as well. I did in SMF a addon that adds to that page. The option to ban ip, hostname, email as well.

I think I thought about it, in fact, usually that's the procedure.
The only thing I still have not clear is how careful one needs to be in banning the IP.
Provided your own IP cannot be banned, it's always tricky when it comes to close ranges and so on. On top of that there is the whole IPv6 thingy... :-\
