I think what you want to do is look at the access file for sendmail.  In
that file you can specify who can talk to your server.  Of course if you
are using a different MTA than sendmail you will have to find a similar
method with those.

Spamassassin would not be a good way to do this.  But I suppose you
could whitelist the machine you want to receive email from and use a
wild card to black list all others.  But all this would do would mark
all other incoming email as spam.  You would then need to use procmail
or some such to actually drop those into the bit bucket.
