Hi all, XEP-0191 (Blocking command) specifies that once a contact is blocked, no stanzas are delivered from them to the user:
> Once the user has blocked communications with the contact, the > user's server MUST NOT deliver any XML stanzas from the contact to > the user. The block remains in force until the user subsequently > unblocks commmunications with the contact (i.e., the duration of the > block is potentially unlimited and applies across sessions). However, Gajim (and possibly other clients that use privacy lists) seems to block everything but presence information. From a user perspective, this seems like the expected behavior (I block someone, they can't receive information about my presence or send me messages, but I can still see their presence unless they block me). Am I interpreting everything correctly, and if so, is this something that would be considered for change? I'd like to propose that the line from XEP-0191 be rewritten to read something like: > Once the user has blocked communications with the contact, the > user's server MUST NOT deliver any XML stanzas from the contact to > the user except for presence stanzas. ...
