#6937: Bot Sentury allows windows to be opened when originating MSN address is
offline

When set to block spam bots, the Bot Sentury plugin does not stop a new
window from opening if the originating address is set to offline.
For example, when a spam message is sent from a bot, that bot quickly sets
its status to offline, before bot sentury has a chance to reply with the
challenge. This causes a window to open with the text similar to "The
message could not be delivered because [bot address] is offline".
Solution: add an option to bot sentry that simply does not open windows
form accounts not added in the buddy list. It would ignore all messages
coming from any account not in the buddy account and not send a challenge.
Emptying the fields "Question" and "Answer" in the configuration does not
seem to work.
