2.0.5? Really?

If you mean 2.1.5, there are several ways to do this. Probably the
easiest is Privacy options... -> Sender filters ->
discard_these_nonmembers.

If you really mean 2.0.5, I don't think there's a way to reject/discard
as opposed to hold posts from a specific address.

Note that 2.0.5 is over 9 years old. 2.1.5 is over 6 years old. The
current release is 2.1.13 with 2.1.14 due in September.
