But that's already what the program does. It whitelists for a couple of 
days (five by default I think) and if there's no more mail coming from that 
source it will remove it from the whitelist. Further, the whitelisting is 
*not* based on the to address but on the from,server tuple, so even if 
someone else uses that address later it will be subject to greylisting as 
it is *not* put in the whitelist.

I can see some value in being able to use such a format "alan+20071007@" 
nevertheless, but then for *blacklisting*. Something like "do not accept 
mail to this date format marked address" if the date is x days later (or 
earlier).
