Since we force anonymous FREQ to prevent nodes from sending us unauthenticated mail during a freq session on behalf of a user.. the following setting has been added:
set FREQ_AUTHENTICATE_UPLINKS=true in .env;
in this mode, the system will happily authenticate to uplinks to perform an freq on behalf of a user.
Also - uplinks may or may not expect a session to authenticate if they are known.
To alleviate this pain point, add filtering on the Files -> File Requests request form to block requests to uplinks for non admin users when this setting is enabled, just to keep users from performing freq's as an authenticated peer.
