I believe this is theoretically possible, but not something I'd want to mess around with. Too easy to do it wrong, and it would create extra load on the drive, which since qmail is already drive speed bound doesn't sound like a good plan.

Is there a way to append via a script that would put the generated
email address into the validrcptto file and then according to the
time set by tmda it would remove that entry?

I'm not a coder but I would think that it would not be that hard to
get / write a script that could do this.

Any ideas, suggestions?

Last I checked, I don't think you can use validrcptto with TMDA.  My
solution was to use Mailfront instead, and you can wildcard the
confirmation addresses.

Ok, so I finally got my tmda to work, had to do in my .qmail file
|preline /usr/bin/python /path/to/tmda/bin/tmda-filter -c /path/to/config
./Maildir/

Now I have a problem, when tmda sends the challenge and you respond to it it
gets
rejected. I have qmail running with the validrcptto patch. I generated a 60
minute
email address and copied it to the file /var/qmail/control/validrcptto but yet
I
still get a failure notice saying the email address is not valid. I did a copy
/ paste
so why is this not working?

For those not familiar with the validrcptto file, you put valid email address
in there
and all others are dropped before the MTA finishes the handshake, great for
blocking
spam sent to multiple rcpt at the same domain.

Is there a way to tell tmda to use a specific challenge email address and not
generate one each time it get a message?
