channel mode character (#+&!) before the channel name, Irssi
automatically uses # channels.
- Channel name may contain any characters except SPACE, BELL, NUL,
- CR, LF or comma (','). You can also restrict the channel to only
- certain users by adding the hostmask to the end of the channel
- name separated with a ':' character, like #channel:*!*@*.fi lets
- only people from .fi domain join the channel. This doesn't work with
- all IRC servers and it's pretty difficult to use, since everyone
- will have to always join the #channel:*!*@*.fi channel, #channel or
- #channel:*!*@*.se channels are different channels. Ban exceptions
- (+e) and especially invite lists (+I) replace this functionality
- pretty well, see section 6.5.
