Microsoft Teams: Priority account chat controls (Premium)

Teams Premium add-on license users are in for a treat, as Microsoft introduces a policy setting that empowers administrators to manage priority account chat controls. This feature allows end-users to determine how they want to deal with unwanted internal communications.
Upon receiving chats from new contacts, end-users will receive notifications enabling them to choose whether to accept or block the conversations. If blocked, all future messages will no longer be received from the sender. However, users can unblock senders at any time by adjusting their policies.
This feature is set for General Availability release on November CY2023, and it will be available on the Mac Cloud Instance (Worldwide Standard Multi-Tenant). If you want to stay in the loop regarding this feature, refer to the roadmap link provided in the post.
