Qmail solution to forward to /dev/null?

I've previously been using procmail, but switched to qmail to get the myname-whatever-wildcard@mydomain.com feature.

I use the wildcards when "un-trustworthy" websites ask me for my e-mail - and sure enough - some of those sites end up sending me spam.

In procmail I would do
:0
* ^To.*myname-mywildcard
/dev/null

to forward mail sent to the spam-gathering wildcard adress to /dev/null.

How do I do this in Qmail?
I've understood that I can use procmail through qmail, but surely there must be a way to do this in qmail?
 
Can't get your URL to work. Typo/ site down?
