I used dated addresses for around 2 years, and I found that the only times that the address was harvested and exploited before it expired was when I posted to Usenet. This often happened in < 24 hours, so I stopped using dated addresses on Usenet. Other than Usenet (i.e, mailing lists), you should be fine with nearly any reasonable timeout. I used 8 days and never had a problem as my experience was that it took at least weeks to months for the address to be harvested from a web archive of the list and then exploited. _____________________________________________ tmda-users mailing list ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) http://tmda.net/lists/listinfo/tmda-users
