Although interesting at first glance, I don't think this idea is fully-baked. :( If I send someone mail, they will get my dated address and will most likely assume it to be my regular address (albeit a long one). If they put this address in their address book so they can send me correspondence later, I will need it to work like this: * e-mails sent within the address' expiry should go through unchallenged * the first e-mail after expiry should be challenged, and then the sender's address should be added to my list * all future e-mails should be unchallenged because they are not in my list (although the address they are using is expired!). By dropping mail to expired addresses, I am sabotaging this chain of events.
