I haven't tested this, but conceptually the approach I would use
would be to use the virtusertable to map all users at your
domain to one like:
@mydomain.com  some_local_user

Then in aliases, send that to /dev/null like
some_local_user:/dev/null

That way it will be easy to add exceptions that have normal handling
later if you decide to watch postmaster/abuse, or whatever.
