[Techtalk] simple mail filtering via whitelist - suggestions?

[Travis Casey]

'Lo, all.  I've recently finally given in to my 5-year-old's requests for an 
email account, and for obvious reasons, I want to filter it heavily -- 
"Daddy, what's viagra?" is not a subject I want to get into at this age, 
much less the nastier sorts of stuff that could come through.  Right now 
I'm screening her email before letting her get to it, but I'd like to be 
able to partially automate it.

What I'd like to do is create a "whitelist" of approved senders, and let 
mail from them go on to her.  Anything from someone else would be 
redirected to me.

I know of procmail and maildrop, but I've never used either of them, so I 
don't know how easy setting up something like this would be with either 
one, and they both seem kind of like overkill for a simple whitelist.

Any suggestions or ideas?  Please and thank you!
