You can use Majordomo, and set the parameter `restrict_post' in
`listname.config':

  restrict_post = listname.allowed

where `listname.allowed' is a file containing addresses from which
messages to the list will be accepted.  In addition, you may want to
configure `/etc/mail/virtualusertable' as in Majordomo FAQ 3.6,
http://www.greatcircle.com/majordomo/majordomo-faq.html#3.6
