It does a few super-handy things that make TMDA more "transparent" and therefore more convenient. For example: * Most people configure their outgoing filter such that when you send mail to someone who is not on your lists, it tags your message with a dated address. That way, the receiving user can reply in a reasonable amount of time without ever having to confirm. * Your outgoing filter can be configured to tag messages based on who you are sending mail to. This is handy when using mailing lists to tag your posts with keyworded addresses.

Also, keep in mind that you may have to play with your whitelist's group and permissions, depending on who can modify this file. If you allow confirmations to append to this list then TMDA will need to be able to change the file, regardless of whom it is launched as.
