This module implements support for sending messages in a MUC to affiliated users who are not in the room. This is a custom extension by Tigase to allow push notifications from MUCs to users who are not currently connected.
It is planned that this will evolve to a XEP in the near future.
The protocol is described below. It is implemented in the Siskin client for iOS.
Add to modules_enabled under your MUC component (i.e. not the global modules_enabled list). There are no configuration options.
Requires Prosody trunk (0.12) for the API introduced in commit 336cba957c88.

Submit the form with that field set to true, and the MUC will forward messages to your bare JID when you are not connected to the room. Two things to note:
