# Introduction

This module prevents unaffiliated users from sending private messages in

chat rooms, unless someone with an affiliation (member, admin etc)

messages them first.

# Configuration

The module doesn't have any options, just load it onto a MUC component.

``` lua

Component "muc"

modules_enabled = {

    "muc_block_pm";

}

```
