Can MHonArc be configured to receive email only from certain email adddress?

Yes, but you may be better served to use a pre-processor, like procmail,
to perform such tasks since you can capture rejected messages in case
some messages were improperly rejected.

As for the MHonArc way, have a look at the MSGEXCFILTER resource.  The
reference page for the resource provides some examples that should help
you to get what you want.

On a semi-related note, you may want to look at mharc,
<http://www.mhonarc.org/mharc/>, especially if you have multiple archives.
