mod_storage_xmlarchive: Ensure list index files are removed using os.remove() on the list files leaves the new index files behind since util.datamanager does not know they are removed. Thanks Link Mauve

...

Introduction

[SIFT][XEP-0273] is a technology to allow clients to filter incoming
traffic on the server. This helps save bandwidth, etc.

Compatibility
=============

  ----- -------
  0.7   Works

Quirks
======

This implementation is a work in progress.

-   Stanzas to full JIDs get sifted correctly
-   Stanzas to bare JIDs are currently allowed/disallowed for all
    resources as a whole, and not for individual resources
-   Presence is only sent to available resources, and probes are not
    sent for unavailable reasources
-   This module currently does not interact with offline messages
    (filtered messages are dropped with an error reply)
-   Not tested with privacy lists
