Although they are conceptually cool, they are very hard to use. Take your example... before you sign up for your security bulletins, you have no idea that the mail will be coming from <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>. So, to use the sender address, you would have to sign up with one address, wait for a bulletin to come in, remove yourself from the list, and then sign back up with a new sender address. That's a bit too much effort for me. I would rather a keyword address and use that, or sign up with my regular, filtered address and then check "tmda-pending -D" to see where they are posting from so I could release it and then add the sender's address to my whitelist. While I'm rambling, this also brings up another nice advantage the whitelist plan has over using a keyword address. I signed up for something yesterday with a keyword address, found out it was crap, and then went back to close my account. However, instead of giving me a user name, they wanted to know my e-mail address again so that they could get back to my account. It wasn't a big deal since I had just received e-mail from them. I could look it up easy enough. But what if I had signed up 6 months ago? What's the chance I could remember the right keyword to use so I could re-generate the same address? Bleah! That's my 2�.
