Two solutions:

1. Change from "Contributors can post" to "Anyone can post". Counterintuitive, but the first is based on email FROM, the second is moderated.

2. Make a hash as your FROM address. Add it as an alias to send from in Gmail (or whatever you use). Send to posterous from the hash address. Your email address becomes your password.
