I hate to seem thick, but I am having trouble with your suggestion.
Before posting I spent most of the day trying to figure this out.

From the hobbit server, I am logged in as user hobbit I tried the
following several methods.
--admin-senders=127.0.0.1 is in hobbitlaunch.cfg
I have tried with both (.) and (,) in FQDN

*******
$ $bb 127.0.0.1 drop p0054.pmg.local bbd
127.0.0.1: not found

$ $bb 127.0.0.1 "drop p0054.pmg.local bbd"
127.0.0.1: not found

$ bb 127.0.0.1 "drop p0054.pmg.local bbd"
bb: not found

$ $bb --debug 127.0.0.1 "drop p0054.pmg.local bbd"
--debug: not found

$ $bb debug 127.0.0.1 "drop p0054.pmg.local bbd"
debug: not found

$ $bb $bbdisp drop p0054.pmg.local bbd
drop: not found

$ $bb $bbdisp "drop p0054.pmg.local bbd"
drop p0054.pmg.local.bbd: not found

$ $bb --debug $BBDISP "drop p0054,pmg,local bbd"
--debug: not found

$ $bb $BBDISP "drop p0054,pmg,local bbd"
drop p0054,pmg,local bbd: not found

$ $bb -debug $BBDISP "drop p0054,pmg,local bbd"
-debug: not found

$ $bb debug $BBDISP "drop p0054,pmg,local bbd"
debug: not found

From windows client with bbwin

*******
From the windows client
c:\program files\bbwin\bin> bbwincmd.exe 192.168.222.62:1984 drop
p0054.pmg.local bbd

No error message on client
Error message on server in /var/log/hobbit/hobbitd.log

2007-01-29 13:05:36 Refused message from 192.168.222.61: drop
p0054,pmg,local bbd

*******

What as I doing wrong?
Thanks
