 hello nostr:npub16d8gxt2z4k9e8sdpc0yyqzf5gp0np09ls4lnn630qzxzvwpl0rgq5h4rzv Wanted to reach out about your relay.  I noticed relay.tools *had a bug, where normally when you set "pay with lightning" it's supposed to change to "general settings: deny" so that the relay's access control will kick on.  But it wasn't doing that.  I just released a fix, so now it does.  That means that previously your relay was not denying anyone who wasn't in the AUTH list, and now it is.  You can change this at any time in your relay settings.  It gets more complicated as well :)  bear with me.  I see that you have AUTH turned on, and that you are using this relay as a DM inbox relay.  So, in this case, you *may want to have general settings: allow, or people that aren't in your access control list cannot DM you via this relay.  That may be fine since you also have nos.lol listed as a DM relay in addition..  I just wanted to try to explain the options to you and happy to have you as a customer of relay.tools.  Feel free to ask any questions or DM /simplex if you prefer.  I will never initiate DMs or mention your relay name, but I will reach out from time to time on kind1 when I need to get in touch.  Thanks again!
