[request] Do not allow IM box for users who block incomming

The other day I had written out a fairly lengthy PM to someone when I pressed 'send' only to be told that they block all incomming PM's.

Can we implement a feature that tells you that the user has blocked incomming PMs before you try to actually hit 'send' ?

Caveat: This will only work if you click on the IM tab in a post or try to PM the person from their page. It will not stop you from writing their name in the "to" box and then typing a message, unless our coding Goddess can code an active name-checker into the IM screen.

I don't run across it much, but would be very frustrating if happened, seems would be a very good idea to let others know if IM's are blocked or not.

Should give you a msg when you hit the 'im' link on a post as well (soon if not there yet).
