If I didn't misunderstand your question,
the most simple solution could be about like this:
In /etc/aliases just setup an alias:
local-part: "|/full/path/to/your/script"
(Of course, replace "local-part" with your special recipient and
/full/...scipt as well with the approbiate path name)
If your config is somewhat "standard", this should work out of the box.
