mod_bookmarks2: Use max_items='max' on trunk, with fallback check_node_config() throws an error attempting to compare the pep_max_items number with the 'max' string, which allows detecting and support using 'max' where available. Unsure what happens when you upgrade, that seems a problem for a future commit! :)

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.

Compatibility
