mod_isolate_host: handle server-generated stanzas The hook for setting the no_host_isolation is only called for c2s sessions. This does not work for stanzas generated by the server, such as PEP notifications or presence probe answers. To handle that, we do per-stanza checks for the case that the origin is local.

Introduction
============

In order to build heuristics for which messages are spam, it is necessary to
log as many details as possible about the spammers. This module sends a
version and disco query whenever a message is received from a JID to a user it
is not subscribed to. The results are printed to Prosody's log file at the
'info' level. Queried full JIDs are not queried again until Prosody restarts.

The queries are sent regardless of whether the local user exists, so it does
not reveal if an account is active.
