If I do the aliases thing what happens if a mail message is addressed to

To be honest, I don't know what iMail would do. If the sending MTA sends the messages to one address at a time (in the SMTP envelope), this isn't an issue -- it goes to the good address, and the bad one is rejected. If the sending MTA uses multiple addresses in the envelope, I don't know whether or not iMail refuses the entire message if one address in the envelope is bad.


One (admittedly ugly) work-around, if this is a chronic problem, would be to set up a 'nobody' alias for that domain, and set up the destination account to automatically delete messages that come in. This is not a good solution, though, because it opens you up for an effective DOS dictionary attack.
