This plugin adds detailed privacy controls for private messaging on community sites built with BuddyPress. It is designed for site administrators who want to reduce message spam and give their members control over their communication experience. Users can manage their inbox by setting specific rules about who is allowed to contact them.

• Flexible Privacy Levels: Users can select from three main settings: allow messages from everyone, from friends only, or from a custom list they create.
• Custom Allow and Block Lists: In addition to the main privacy level, users can build a whitelist of specific users who are always allowed to message them and a blacklist of users who are permanently blocked.
• Comprehensive Blocking: The plugin prevents blocked users from initiating new conversations and also stops them from replying to any existing threads.
• Administrator Override: Site administrators retain the ability to send messages to any user on the site, regardless of that user's privacy settings, ensuring important communications are never hindered.
• Extended Plugin Support: The plugin includes compatibility features for other popular community extensions, such as the BuddyPress Follow plugin.
