How can Private Message sending be disabled for members not yet activated?

Please see my edit above. It's been a rough morning

Thanks for the reply, Stratis. But do you know for sure that this mod will stop the ability of users to send PMs immediately after submitting their registration form?

It almost seems like a bug to me. I can't think of any reason allowing users who have not yet activated their member accounts the ability to send PMs would be a function that exists by design. But maybe there's something I haven't considered.

Problem solved. And it was all a stupid error on my part. I had set the Private Message Permissions > Maximum Stored Messages option to zero (0) for usergroups: unregistered / Not Logged In, Users Awaiting Email Confirmation, and Users Awaiting Moderation. But I mis-typed the zero as a nine (9) in the field for the Users Awaiting Email Confirmation usergroup. When I went back to check through everything I caught and corrected it. Now no one is able to send PMs prior to activation

Thanks anyway.
