Set up an account for just this purpose (called "null" or whatever you want) and put a .courier file in the home directory which has a single "\n" in it. (i.e. it's a non-zero length file that has no instructions in it.) Then use this account whenever you want to thrown away messages. So instead of aliasing the account to /dev/null (which won't work) alias it to "null" (or whatever your account name is).
