* does not apply to NOTICE (as those may well be automated)
* mirrors +g behaviour so that no useless accept entries are added for services
* respects max_accept, if it would be exceeded the message is dropped with numeric 494
* check moved up so this is checked before floodcount/tgchange
This shouldn't provide any way for a client to get on a CALLERID list
without authorization, as if a client is +g already, a CTCP request, for
example, won't be replied to.
When a user receives a private message, notice or RPL_UMODEGMSG,
add the source to a special set of 5 target slots.
These slots are checked in the normal way when sending messages,
allowing a reply without using up a free target.
This feature will not be very useful if a user is being messaged
by many different users; to help this, messages blocked entirely
by +g or +R do not affect the targets. CTCP replies also remain
free in terms of targets.
A large group is any $$ or $# or a channel with more than
floodcount/2 local members, checked on each server separately.
Note that floodcount checks are done on the sender's server.
The special treatment is active for 15 seconds.
This gives a useful meaning to the cmode combo +mz-n:
messages from ops and voices go to all channel members,
messages from anyone else (on or off channel) go to ops.
With +mnz, messages from outside are not allowed at all.
These are unreliable in general and only useful
for violating certain restrictions.
Sending such messages to remote servers is still
possible, for securely messaging pseudoservers whether
service{}'ed or not. The special oper-only syntax
opers@server remains as well.
This way, the information remains valid after a split.
For clients on TS5 servers, the nick is used; this is
not much of a problem because these are on pseudoservers
and not assumed to change nick much at all.
- the number of messages blocked by target change on
this server since it was started
- the number of IPs currently subject to a a lower
target limit on this server (these expire over time)
