You could even make a filter that does just that (deletes incoming emails). I'd suggest not doing that, in case some of them turn out to be important. I would do what Kenneth suggested. I don't think Gmail will send genuine bounce messages unless you delete the account. Do you subscribe to any email lists (such as this one)? Bounce messages are almost guaranteed to get you removed from those lists. Even 'away' messages might do it, unless you set it up to skip them.
