Thom,

You might have trouble with using procmail, as procmail deals with the headers, and these are usually faked with nasty spam, and procmail cant do envelopes.  So really you want to head back one, to the server, in this case virtusertable will probably do what you want!

Add this line to your /etc/virtusertable file, then restart mail (i do this from GUI, less chance of typos):
THEADDRESS@xxxxxxxxxxxxx error:nouser SPAM is a menace to society have it back
