Why not block it when it is coming in? use the mxcheck patch which will
check whether the sender's domain is a "valid" or existing domain.

once the email is in your queue, the only thing that is important is the
recipients' email address.

I am here:
http://www.qmail.org/top.html

I do not see an mxcheck on this page. Is there something I am
missing? The qregex page is inaccessible at the moment.

Oops, typo. mfcheck is the patch.

http://js.hu/package/qmail/index.html
http://js.hu/package/qmail/qmail-1.03-mfcheck.4.patch

qregex from freshmeat http://freshmeat.net/projects/qregex/
You would need to alter the code after the application to make qregex
case insencitive.
