I have setup a discard transport in postfix for all kind of things like this.
In /etc/postfix/master.cf I have:
#
# This transport will just eat messages.
#
discard unix - n n - - pipe
user=nobody argv=/bin/cat /dev/null
Then a transport table can be used to direct mails to the discard
transport like this in /etc/postfix/transport:
noreply at domain.tld discard:
