Fair enough.  What do you want to happen?

That would work.

Alternatively if you just want all the messages to be rejected, make it

        Send= Owner,Confirm

or even

        Send= explicitemail@address,Confirm

and all messages from other addresses will be rejected (and even if
someone forges a message from an allowed address the message will
require confirmation).  Then revert to the old setting when you get
back.

Thanks,
