[vps-mail] Access blocking using wildcards

We have one server with a very slow paced, widely distributed
attack, if you call it that, the last several days. Every 5 minutes or
so there is a connection trying to deliver mail to
"poland___@xxxxxxxxxxx," with random characters in the middle.
Typically an IP is used just a few times.
It would be nice to just refuse the connection based on the RCPT
TO address, which can be done in Sendmail...except I'd need a wildcard.
That doesn't appear to be possible using the access database
("To:poland*@example.com" etc.)? Is there a better way? Would
"To:poland" work?
