Procmail rule:

/dev/null

I would be far more interested in knowing why the undeliverable bounce
was generated in the first place. If you are accepting mail for unknown
users and then bouncing, set local_recipient_maps correctly so that you
don't accept that mail in the first place.

You can set notify_classes in main.cf so that the notifications are not
generated, but silently discarded.

If you can, run a snapshot release and set the check_sender_mx_access
variable.
