I think it's just fine. I encourage developers to keep the spam going.

You can simulate github style squah of v1->v2->v3 in your inbox.
Ask your agent to monitor inbox, archive vN when vN+1 arrives
and summarize v1->vN discussion. Then you'll always have the latest
patch set to look at and a summary of what happened when you were away.
Then sit on it for a day or a week to see whether respin
cycle has ended (and bots stopped talking to each other) and then
do a human part of maintainership.
