You could set up header_filter_rules (Privacy options... -> Spam
filters) for this list as follows:
rule 1
regexps
^Received:.*bobspc\.123\.com
^Received:.*123\.456\.789\.246
action Accept
rule 2
regexp
.
Action Discard
However, An easier and better way to do this is to moderate Bob along
with everyone else and have Bob post with a header
Approved: password
where password is the list's admin or moderator password.
