#13250: Charset based message blocking
------------------------------------------------------+---------------------
 Reporter:  navara                                    |     Owner:  rekkanoryo
     Type:  plugin request                            |    Status:  new       
Component:  unclassified                              |   Version:  2.7.9     
 Keywords:  block spam authentisation russian azbuka  |  
------------------------------------------------------+---------------------
 '''Functionality''':
 Plugin should silently (maybe report that in file log) block all messages
 and authorisation requests, that containt letters from banned charset.
 ----
 '''Reasoning''':
 I don't know russian language, I don't recognize azbuka characters and
 still I receive plenty of authorisation spam from unknown people. All this
 spam has in common: they're written in azbuka.
 Therefore I can get rid of 100% of this spam (and only spam I receive), if
 I'm able to block that on charset level.
 Single azbuka character => dropped.
