If checking local_recipients in the database is a problem, dump the list of aliases into a file, and let postfix use that file.

Writing a cronjob to do the trick is trivial, and postfix will never have to 
talk to the database again.

Letting postfix talk to the sql database is a convenience hack, not a 
requirement.

Use postfix to stop it, if there's just one problem addr.  Eg.
create an alias for that user and redirect mail to /dev/null,
or use header_checks to reject the mail with a custom error
message.

Can someone help me diagnose what these lines would be doing?

I am having serious problems with my mail server today and it looks like it's getting bounded with incoming junk going to one address which isn't even valid. But all the connections coming in create connections to the MySQL DB which causes the server some problems.

Can someone help me out?  I am using postfix / MailScanner / DBMail.
