You have a rule that matches any address (including dated addresses)
in your filter.  Therefore, any address that doesn't match a previous
rule will be confirmed.

TMDA check, in order,

* confirmation replies
* your filter
* tagged addresses

The reason for this is that you need to be able to "turn off" tagged
addresses if they become subject to abuse.  Keyword addresses or dated
address set for a long period of time sometimes leak; you need the
ability to bounce, confirm or drop them from your filter.

The default ACTION_INCMING is confirm (you can change it).  That
default accomplishes the same thing as your filter rule but it only
applies after the above three tests have taken place.  Valid dated
addresses will be matched in the third "phase" above.

You simply need to remove the "from * confirm" rule from your incoming
filter.
