[Gaim-devel] announce: block warn plugin

[Scott L. <sl...@me...>]

Hello,

I've written a plugin for gaim which tries to block AIM "Spams" based
on a simple list:

- Allow messages from myself
- allow messages that already have an open conversation window
- allow messages from someone on your buddy list
- finally, block messages if the warning level is above a (configurable) 
  threshold

It requires a patch to gaim, to pass the warning level of an incoming
message in the 'flags' variable to the receive im signal handler.    I
think a similar patch would be a useful addition to gaim.   

It has only been tested (minimally) on Linux with gaim 0.59.8.   I'd
be happy to receive reports (positive + negative) about other systems,
especially windows with a 0.60 gaim.

The patch and plugin are available at http://mercea.net/gaim/

Hope this is of use to people,

Scott
