(manually fiddled together, since I am not on the tmda-users-list (just
reading from the archive :-). I hope I don't break threading :-)

I used the default debian-package (0.51-1), since I was about to play
with it first - and that's easier by using apt-get :-)

I've done a quick grep through tmda-rfilter for CONFIRM_ADDRESS with no
result, so I guess it was not supported then. The newer packages require
upgrade of python too, which I don't want to risk on a production
machine...

But I am quite sure, that it still won't work. As I stated, my addresses
get mangled from [EMAIL PROTECTED] to balu+test=b-a-l-u.de@localhost.
I wanted to use a .forward+test=b-a-l-u.de to filter mails through tmda.

Mails sent by tmda that would look like (if CONFIRM_ADDRESS =
"[EMAIL PROTECTED]"?):
        [EMAIL PROTECTED]

My postfix would mangle that (for delivery) to
        balu+test+confirm+accept.1037718324.12857.c5713f=b-a-l-u.de@localhost

Since postfix does not support "hierarchical" .forwards, it would look
for .forward+test+confirm+accept.1037718324.12857.c5713f=b-a-l-u.de (not
find it) and .forward.

So my way to go would be to call tmda from .forward and not
.forward+test=b-a-l-u.de as I wanted to do... But then again, all my
mails would be filtered by tmda, which I wanted to avoid during my
testing-phase...
