Yes it is possible, indeed it is the default action!
Sending to the sender of the email is off by default.

So 2 out 3 three things are by default what you want. The final issue is the

If you don't want postmaster to receive messages use --postmaster=null where
null is an address aliased to /dev/null in /etc/aliases.

Again do nothing, this is the default action.
