CB Private Messaging - How to implement the 'block' feature

Hi - concerning the possibility to implement the 'blocking' feature with the new CB Private Messaging plugin I have read the following statement in the following thread:

answer: This will just be a part of CB Privacy and the PMS functionality will simply respect it.

Question:
Does it mean that it is already now possible to implement this "blocking" feature by the help of the CB Privacy plugin? (or do we have to wait for a future rel of CB Privacy plugin?) I tried to implement the "blocking" feature with the actual CB Privacy Plugin version. But I have absolutely no idea how to do it. The difficulty for me is to block just a single user (after a certain time, not from beginning) from sending private messages to another user….....so the scenario is as follows:


1. User A sends several private messages to user B (without asking B if he is allowed to do so)
2. User B is free to reading the received messages or not
3. After a certain time user B is 'nerved' and wants to 'block' A from sending any messages to him

In my current environment the 'Connection' settings in CB are as follows:
Mutual Consent = NO
Cross Connections = NO

There is no blocking feature yet. Once blocking is implemented in CB Privacy it will also function for PMS. It will block the specified user from accessing your profile and communicating with you.
