No.  TMDA isn't a daemon, or long-running, program.  It only runs when
a piece of mail comes in for delivery.  It has no way to track periods
of time to the minute.  If mail is sent to an expired address,
however, you have the choice of what to do.  The default is to confirm
the message, rather than letting it through.  You can change that to
always let it through, regardless, or to drop it or bounce it....

See the ACTION_FAIL_xxx variables at: http://tmda.net/config-vars.html

The default is to confirm because sometimes that expired dated address
is the only way a person has to reach you.  An example: your dated
address may appear in a mailing list archive, where you brought up a
problem or offered a solution and someone, a year from now, would like
some clarification.  Automatically blacklisting them is probably not
what you really want.  Of course, your particular situation may be
different, depending on how you use dated addresses.
