I do the same. If I receive messages I don't want, I disable the address they are sending the message to. (Then they will get a error message from the SMTP server when trying to send the RCPT TO command.) I run my own email server and just use the /etc/aliases file to list the names that are acceptable. (I also have it configured so that real user names don't work, only aliases will work)
