The idea behind tempalias was to work without requiring an account, without encoding validity information into the email (thus providing spammers a way to reach you once they know how the encoding works - and trust me, they will know) and without forcing you to visit a web interface. Of course this destroyed any credible possible source of revenue I could ever generate, but this was just a fun project and I wanted to create the most useful service, which IMHO is how this works.
