There is nothing stopping you from invoking procmail from aliases and
having procmail invoke the mailgate.  There are several examples if
you search on the wiki for procmail.

You don't say what your mail server is, but I know with postfix you  
could
just have it discard mail from certain addresses before it gets to rt- 
mailgate

This is really more of a question for your mail server than RT
