This sounds like something a mailing list manager can do.

Majordomo, for example, can define a list as "moderated" - in which case
an 'Approved' post must have a specific header and password included for
it to be distributed (which is removed at distribution time), otherwise
the mail gets bounced to the list-owner.

Other mlm's may have similar features.
