CallerID
CallerID is a powerful feature to ignore private message from people you did not explicitly allow to do so.
- You need to set /umode +g, +G, or +j to enable this mode
- +g is the strictest mode, all private messages need to be whitelisted
- +G additionally lets private messages through if the sender and the recipient share a channel. +G taks precedence over +g
- +j additionally lets private messages through if the sender is registered with NickServ. If the user has +Gj set, they can only receive messages from registered users who also share a channel
- If someone messages you and (s)he is not your ignorelist, (s)he AND you will get a short notice saying that you are +g. You will get this message only once every 60 seconds
- Use /ACCEPT <nick> to allow people to privately message you
- To remove a user, issue /ACCEPT -<nick>
- To view your accept list, issue /ACCEPT *
- When the accepted user quits, you quit, you are separated by a netsplit, or the accepted user changes his nick, the ACCEPT will be invalidated
