Summary5738: Restrict recommend addon by default to reduce spam
DescriptionCreate a new privilege defining which groups are allowed to send a custom message when using the recommended feature. Those who do not have the privilege cannot send a custom message; only the default built-in message will be used.

By default, this privilege is enabled for everyone except guests and members on probation.
Additional InformationOn Compo.sr, spammers are heavily trying to abuse the recommend addon to send spam links to people's e-mails. This will aid in reducing that.
