I do not know the intricacies of your particular situation, but here is an 
easy, quick-n-dirty solution:

/dev/null the existing mailbox, set up a new mailbox but only tell your 
users of its aliases !!  Obviously that user will have to be told to check 
for mail from the new mailbox and this method is not fool-proof but, 
depending on your needs, may prove adequate for the short term.
