mod_rest: Add special handling to catch MAM results from remote hosts Makes MAM queries to remote hosts works. As the comment says, MAM results from users' local archives or local MUCs are returned via origin.send() which is provided in the event and thus already worked. Results from remote hosts go via normal stanza routing and events, which need this extra handling to catch. This pattern of iq-set, message+, iq-result is generally limited to MAM. Closest similar thing might be MUC join, but to really handle that you would need the webhook callback mechanism.

# Introduction

This module adds an internal Prosody API to retrieve the last displayed message by MUC occupants.

## Requirements

The clients must support XEP-0333, and the users to be tracked must be affiliated with the room.

Currently due to lack of clarity about which id to use in acknowledgements in XEP-0333, this module
rewrites the id attribute of stanzas to match the stanza (archive) id assigned by the MUC server.

Oh yeah, and mod_muc_mam is required (or another module that adds a stanza-id), otherwise this module
won't do anything.
