Postfix/mysql setup, can't /dev/null a particular address
Back in the olden days, I setup my deb stable box with the instructions here
Problem is, one particular address matching the wildcard to hit my mailbox is currently being spammed into all you-know-what. I know I could setup a mail user account with that name, but I frankly don't want to donate the disk space to the spammers.
I have tried adding the addresses to /etc/aliases and then running postmap on it, but it didn't have any effect. Short of migrating everything over to exim or something else (which I really haven't got the time to do), how do I fix this?

# See man 5 aliases for format
postmaster:root
clamav:root
info:/dev/null
Mail sent to info@ goes right on through…
If you're also using SQL tables, as you suggest are you sure nothing in there is conflicting in the DB??
