mod_pubsub_post: Restructure authentication and authorization (BC) This deprecates the default "superuser" actor model and makes the default equivalent to the previous "request.id". A single actor and secret per node is supported because HTTP and WebHooks don't normally include any authorization identity. Allowing authentication bypass when no secret is given should be relatively safe when the actor is unprivileged, as will be unless explicitly configured otherwise.

summary: 'Enforce a policy for OTR-encrypted messages'

Introduction
------------

[OTR, "Off The Record"](https://otr.cypherpunks.ca/), encryption allows
clients to encrypt messages such that the server cannot read/modify
them.

This module allows the server admin to require that all messages are
OTR-encrypted.

Configuration
-------------

Just enable the module by adding it to your global `modules_enabled`, or
if you only want to load it on a single host you can load it only for
one host like this:

    VirtualHost "example.com"
        modules_enabled = { "require_otr" }
