The simplest way to achieve this is to use "reply", make a file called:

/var/qmail/alias/.qmail-user

containing only the pound sign:

#

The pound sign is the .qmail equivalent of sending the message to
/dev/null.

Maybe this will be fixed someday. It's the same problem when you want to
store aliases in LDAP - you have to point them to a mailMessageStore
that actually exists. I generally point them all to
/var/qmail/maildirs/aliasdir, although nothing ever actually gets
delivered there.
