Dated Email Addresses
TMDA can automatically tag your messages with a temporary e-mail address which only works for a defined time interval (e.g, 5 days). During this period, even those not on your whitelist will be able to contact you using the dated address. This also allows you to participate freely in open discussion forums such as Internet mailing lists without fear that your address will be "harvested" by spammers for later use against you, and without opening up your whitelist more than necessary. Here is an example dated address:
- jason-dated-989108708ma17f80@safeaddress.com
This particular address expires on Sun, May 6 00:25:08 2001 UTC, which is exactly 5 days after it was generated. TMDA time intervals can be set in years, months, weeks, days, hours, minutes, and seconds. Once a dated address expires, messages sent there must go through the confirmation process. Use of strong cryptography insures that the timestamp can't be modified.
