My suggestion is to Bounce the message like a normal mail system and you
won't have to deal with them.

The bounces will let the sender know they emailed a wrong account as well
and prevent them from making the same mistake since you are now letting
them know they misspelled the account.

Accepting email for non-accounts even misspelled ones, is not a good idea
IMHO...
