Think carefully about whether that's really what you want. If someone
replies to your email or otherwise sends mail from an address you
previously sent email to, should they really be challenged? This is
why you normally auto-whitelist people you send email to, and one of
the reasons why you also need to filter your *outgoing* mail through
TMDA (and probably prime your whitelist with all the addresses in your
outbox).

In any case, TMDA doesn't support clicking a link as a way of
answering a challenge (where would such a link point?). The challenge
recipient needs to reply to the challenge email. Reportedly tmda-cgi
can use challenge links, but I've never tried it.

Well, yes. You need to direct mail through TMDA for TMDA to work on
that mail. Using .forward is a fairly easy and straight-forward way to
make TMDA act on *incoming* mail, but it has no effect on outgoing
mail. Outgoing mail is described here:

in the section "Mail User Agent (MUA) Configuration". You might also
