1 Fri Apr 14 23:10:44 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
3 * Upped the version number to 1.0.4+dev until the next nmh release.
5 * Added a "releasing nmh" section to README.developers, while the
6 process was fresh in my mind.
8 Fri Apr 14 18:21:34 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
10 * Added new files README.developers, ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6, and
11 ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html to DIST target in Makefile.in.
15 Tue Apr 11 21:37:03 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
17 * Applied Brian Campbell <bacam@tardis.ed.ac.uk>'s mhn.defaults.sh
20 It appears that there shouldn't be quotes around the %s in the
21 iso-8859-1 charset entry; xterm passes the remaining arguments
22 to the program, quoting them means that xterm thinks they're
23 part of the program's name.
25 This %s isn't the same as the "Insert content subtype" one from
26 mhshow-show-* -- it doesn't come from MIME headers and is safe not
29 Sun Apr 09 13:03:59 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
31 * added check in fmt_compile() to handle a single-character
32 format string. fmt_compile() depends on having an array of
33 format characters with an empty item at the end. A
34 single-character format would cause programs using this
35 function to segfault because the algorithm used to decide on
36 the length of the array mistakenly created a single-item array
37 when the format string was one character. This eventually
38 caused problems when the program attempted to test item+1
41 Thu Apr 06 21:53:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
43 * Richard Coleman threw out a lot of old MH-specific files in nmh.
44 Much of the stuff, indeed, is not worth saving, but there are
45 nuggets that are very worthwhile, and should probably be added
46 back in. Most important, IMHO, are the MH change logs, as they
47 can help answer questions like "Why is this code like this?" or
48 "How long has this been broken?" or "What was this ever used for?"
50 I've added a new file to the nmh tree called
51 ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6. It's cobbled together from the
52 mh-6.8.4/papers/mh*/MHCHANGES files. I've re-ordered the entries
53 to go from newest at the top to oldest at the bottom to match the
54 ChangeLog convention. Unfortunately there are no change logs for
55 versions of MH prior to 3 in the MH tar files available at
56 <ftp://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/mh>. Also, it appears to me that there
57 are MH-6.6 changes that aren't documented in the logs.
59 I've also added ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html. This is
60 based on mh-6.8.4/papers/changes/mh-changes.ms. The nroff format
61 and its "catman"-type output are a pain to deal with, but I was
62 loath to throw away the formatting, so I converted the file to
63 HTML. The only actual markup in the body are the "<B>" and "<U>"
64 tags, and "<" and ">" instead of '<' and '>', so it's quite
65 doable to view the file in plain ASCII mode as well. Note that
66 some of the changes this file documents as having been made in
67 MH-6.8.4 may not be present in nmh -- Richard started with 6.8.3
68 and later put in certain 6.8.4 stuff.
70 Wed Apr 05 21:09:28 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
72 * Applied Eric Schnoebelen <eric@cirr.com>'s mhshowsbr.c patch
73 fixing apparent bugs in Dan Winship's new security quoting code:
75 Since upgrading, I've been getting the following errors
76 while attempting to process some MIME messages:
78 (1) Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
83 (2) line 1/10 (END)Segmentation fault (core dumped)
85 (2) appears to be due to the testing of an unset pointer in
86 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux(). (1) appears to be caused by
87 mis-quoting a filename being handed to the shell in
88 mhshowsbr.c:show_content_aux().
90 Resolving the pointer reference issue in
91 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux() turned up a similar mis-quoting
92 problem in the routine.
94 Tue Mar 28 16:17:39 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
96 * Applied Todd.Miller@courtesan.com's patch to dropsbr.c to
97 prevent core dumping on packf. Here's the note from his message:
99 Since sizeof(buffer) == sizeof(tmpbuffer) packf will dump
100 core on a file w/o a From line with a line >= BUFSIZ.
101 I noticed this because I had a junk file in my mail
104 Fri Mar 17 11:59:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
106 * wesley.craig@umich.edu did not document his previous KPOP patch,
107 so I did so, and asked him to check what I wrote. Unfortunately
108 he didn't notice my misunderstanding of his patch. I wrote that
109 if you #define POPSERVICE "kpop", inc and msgchk will use KPOP
110 exclusively, but if you leave it as "pop3", you can use Wesley's
111 new -kpop switch on a given invocation. Instead, however, -kpop
112 turned out to be necessary on every invocation, and a KPOP user
113 complained. Applied Wesley's new patch, which makes things work
114 like I thought his original patch did. After that, did one more
115 clarifying pass to the documentation in inc.man and msgchk.man.
117 Wed Mar 15 18:45:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
119 * When I fixed the long-standing makedir() bugs in January, I had
120 the code call strtoul(..., 0), which I believed to be safe as all
121 modes specified as ASCII constants in the nmh code started with a
122 leading zero (signifying octal), which I did as it would work if
123 internal constants were ever changed to hex. Unfortunately I was
124 unaware of the "Folder-Protect:" .mh_profile entry, which
125 mh-profile.man documents as an octal-only constant, with no
126 leading zero required. I've changed the strtoul() call to an
127 atooi() call and removed the misleading leading zeroes on the
128 ASCII octal constants in the code and man pages. Also changed the
129 "Folder-Protect:" example in the man page to something more
130 interesting than a duplication of the default.
132 * When I added my --enable-masquerade option, you'll note that I
133 didn't make it --enable-nmh-masquerade. I find the --enable-nmh-*
134 options too wordy and I'm not sure why Richard went that route.
135 I've renamed them to just --enable-*, but the old versions will
136 still work as well (they just aren't advertised).
138 * Added a line to the "nmh configuration" output saying whether
141 * Added a new README.developers file. From the file:
143 This file is intended to provide a few tips for anyone doing
144 development on nmh. Developers who learn things "the hard
145 way" about the nmh codebase (as opposed to local info best
146 encoded in a comment) are encouraged to share their wisdom
149 Currently the topics are "autoconf files" and "directory structure".
151 Tue Mar 14 12:41:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
153 * Applied, after some finessing,
154 Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s --with-smtpservers patch:
156 Here's a patch that allows you to add
158 --with-smtpservers=<some.host.name>
160 to the ./configure command line to set the "servers: " line in
161 etc/mts.conf. Around here, we use "mailhost" so that all
162 machines in the current domain just talk to a central machine
163 and nothing else runs an MTA. Now, I can use
165 --with-smtpservers=mailhost
167 instead of having to remember to fix this by hand (and often
168 forgetting to do so!).
170 * Inspired by Simon's patch, added an --enable-masquerade option
171 to configure. It will set the "masquerade:" line of mts.conf.
172 You may specify a subset of the three types of masquerading, like
173 --enable-masquerade="draft_from mmailid", or leave off explicit
174 arguments to enable all three types.
176 * Alphabetized the --enable and --with options in configure.in and
177 INSTALL and added documentation of the two new options to the latter.
179 * Added new dependency for mts.conf: Makefile. If this isn't
180 done, then when you reconfigure nmh with new values for
181 --enable-masquerade or --with-smtpservers, you'll fail to get an
182 updated copy of mts.conf.
184 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtimep.lex patch:
186 It seems that some MUA's didn't handle y2k very well - ELM
187 seems to be one of them, and Ultrix's DXmail (based on MH!).
188 I've got a few emails this month that look like:
190 575 Jan 00 Xxxxxx Xxxx 3603 ...
192 22+ Jan 00 Xxx Xxxxx 1771 ...
194 The first has "15 Jan 100" as the date and the second has
195 "19 Jan 00" as the date. The following works around this so
196 that scan, show, sortm, etc work ok.
198 I put Simon's patch under the control of a new #define called
199 FIX_NON_Y2K_COMPLIANT_MUA_DATES. There's some commentary in
200 acconfig.h about when you might not want to #define it.
202 * Created new dtimep.c-lexed with Simon's change using dtimep.lex
203 lexed on Solaris 2.6. Added missing dependency in
204 zotnet/tws/Makefile.in for dtimep.c: dtimep.c-lexed.
206 * Added scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD format files.
208 Mon Mar 13 21:32:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
210 * Applied Sullivan N. Beck <sbeck@cise.ufl.edu>'s mhshow-suffix patch:
212 With the patch below, you can add lines like:
214 mhshow-suffix-application/msword: .doc
215 mhshow-suffix-application/PostScript: .ps
217 to the mhn.defaults file to append the given suffix to a
218 scratch file. This allows applications which require a
219 certain suffix to run properly.
221 * Removed -force_html from lynx entry in mhn.defaults.sh (I
222 believe older versions of lynx lack that option) and added
223 "mhshow-suffix-text/html: .html".
225 * Modified username_extension masquerading to only use the
226 extended address on generated [Resent-]From: lines and SMTP
227 envelope From:. With Neil's original implementation, nmh's global
228 idea of the username was changed, which would result in inc lying
229 and saying you had no new mail because it was looking for a
230 mailbox called, for instance, "dan-nmh" (where username was "dan"
231 and $USERNAME_EXTENSION was "-nmh").
233 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtime.c patch:
235 There's a wrap-around problem that affects the implementation
236 of Zeller's congruence in dtime.c. This causes the day-of-week
237 calculations to fail for dates after Feb 29, 2000 (probably up
238 until some year far in the future).
240 Mon Mar 06 12:20:20 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
242 * Applied Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s msh.c patch:
244 I finally tracked down the problem in msh that was causing
245 errors whenever I tried to examine a 'mmdf' style mailbox.
247 It turns out that not enough memory was being allocated with
248 calloc(), causing memory pointers to be overwritten and
251 Fri Mar 03 16:07:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
253 * Changed the new "plussed_user" option to mts.conf's
254 "masquerade:" to "username_extension" after getting feedback from
255 qmail users, who use '-' as a separator rather than '+'. Removed
256 checking of $USERPLUS variable. Now check $USERNAME_EXTENSION,
257 which needs to include the appropriate separator for your MTA
258 ('-', '+', or whatever) as its first character.
260 Thu Mar 02 23:04:30 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
262 * Added a new "boolean" type to mh.h and TRUE and FALSE constants.
264 * Added a note to DIFFERENCES stating that it's out-of-date
265 (Richard was the last one to update it) and that we should
266 consider only documenting incompatibilities with MH there.
268 * Implemented (and documented) a third kind of username
269 masquerading: "plussed user" masquerading. This one was suggested
270 by Neil Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>. It's based on sendmail's
271 "plussed user" feature, where mail sent to <user>+<string> will be
272 delivered to <user>. When it's enabled, it's controlled by the
273 $USERPLUS environment variable. How is it enabled? Well, that
276 * Renamed the "mmailid:" setting in mts.conf to "masquerade:", and
277 changed it so that rather than being a boolean, it can be set to
278 any combination of the three values "draft_from", "mmailid", and
279 "plussed_user". Thus it is now possible to enable the three types
280 of masquerading individually.
282 * Fixed a bug with "mmailid" masquerading (dating back to MH?)
283 where if it was turned on, ','s would no longer be considered
284 GECOS field delimiters.
286 Wed Mar 01 23:30:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
288 * Changed the GECOS-field '&' translation behavior to be
289 controlled by the BSD42 #define rather than GCOS_HACK, since it's
290 apparently always appropriate on OSes where BSD42 is #defined, and
291 never appropriate on any other OSes. Thanks to Kimmo Suominen for
292 responding to my "What is this code here for?" comment in mts.c
293 and explaining the feature.
295 Mon Feb 28 21:50:29 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
297 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3+dev (ideally this should be
298 done by whoever makes a release tar file, immediately after doing
301 * Applied Paul Fox <pgf-spam@foxharp.boston.ma.us>'s scansbr.c
302 patch, posted to comp.mail.mh, which he says prevents loss of mail
303 when inc'ing into a full filesystem.
305 * Changed "echo > stamp-h.in" in Makefile.in to "date > stamp-h.in"
306 so that stamp-h.in will be different each time configure.in and
307 related files are changed, making it easier to check it in (which
308 is necessary to prevent unnecessary autoconf calls).
310 * My declaration of initgroups() in slocal.c to eliminate the "no
311 prototype" warning wasn't portable (FreeBSD 3.[23] choked). Now
312 use AC_EGREP_HEADER to see where initgroups() is declared, if
315 Sun Feb 20 12:17:15 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
317 * Fix security hole in mhshowsbr.c which allowed untrusted shell
320 * Released nmh 1.0.3.
322 Thu Feb 10 10:54:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
324 * Oops. %-escapes on mhstore lines in mhn.defaults.sh should not
325 be surrounded by single quotes, as a shell is not spawned when
326 just saving files, and the filenames will end up with literal
327 quotes embedded in them.
329 Fri Feb 04 12:29:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
331 * Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
332 got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
333 the -help output. One theory is that they were making reference
334 to the fact that clearly you know about the -help option since
335 you're currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea
336 to overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
337 supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
340 The other theory is that because you can say something like
341 "mhstore -" and get "mhstore: - ambiguous. It matches" followed
342 by the same list of switches you get with -help, they were saying
343 you can "sorta" abbreviate "-help" as "-". You don't get the
344 "Usage:" string, though, so it's not really the same thing.
346 Thu Feb 03 17:52:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
348 * Applied wesley.craig@umich.edu's KPOP patches. According to him:
350 The following patch fixes a problem with requesting a
351 service key for a machine that has multiple 'A' records. It
352 also makes "-kpop" a command line option, for users who
353 would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".
355 Did no testing of the new features, as I don't have access to a
358 * Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
360 * Modified INSTALL and config.h.in to reflect the new -kpop feature.
362 Fri Jan 28 17:39:24 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
364 * All %-escapes in mhn.defaults that actually expand to something
365 should be surrounded by single quotes. Added quotes to the ones
366 in mhn.defaults.sh that were missing them.
368 * Added check for lynx to write mhshow-show-text/html line in
371 Thu Jan 27 12:22:25 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
373 * makedir() had multiple bugs dating back to MH. An octal
374 constant was apparently being interpreted as decimal, resulting in
375 directories with no user read or execute permissions, making
376 nested directory creation fail. And there wasn't even an
377 _attempt_ to set desired permissions (e.g. from "Folder-Protect:"
378 in .mh_profile) on the outer directories of a nested directory.
380 * A second `make install' would always fail because the check for
381 whether mh_profile.5 existed was written incorrectly.
383 Wed Jan 26 02:22:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
385 * Added documentation on both types of masquerading to post's man
388 Tue Jan 25 22:58:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
390 * Doug's portability fix of my setgid inc autodetection had a
391 caching bug -- if you re-ran configure, uip/Makefile would be
392 corrupted, and installation would bomb out on OSes where inc needs
395 * Implemented a new kind of email address masquerading. Usually,
396 when a user writes a custom "From:" header in a draft, nmh uses it
397 rather than generating one. However, the user's true address is
398 used in the SMTP envelope "From:" and is revealed in the "Sender:"
399 header. Now, when mmailid is set to non-zero, the envelope
400 "From:" uses the address specified in the draft "From:" header,
401 and there is no "Sender:" header. This is useful when sending on
402 behalf of a remote POP3 account or when remote mail robots
403 incorrectly use the envelope "From:" in preference to the body
404 "From:". This processing has only been implemented for post, not
405 for the undocumented spost (which was already missing some "From:"
406 processing that post has).
408 Mon Jan 24 22:26:06 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
410 * Got rid of the rest of the gcc -Wall warnings that I didn't have
411 time for on 1999-07-15 (and, it would seem, some new ones people
412 introduced since then). The primary ones were the warnings that
413 default prototypes were being used for [v]snprintf() and
414 str[n]casecmp(). As of right now, there are _no_ compilation
415 warnings except on dtimep.c-lexed (at least under AIX 4.1.5 and
418 Sun Jan 2 23:42:18 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
420 * Move mhtest from bindir to libdir.
422 * Move sendfiles from libdir to bindir.
424 * Updated sendfiles manpage to reflect this change.
426 * Added documentation for -build and -file switches to repl and
427 forw manpages (patch from Peter Maydell).
429 * Fixed interaction between specifying -cc in profile and -group on
432 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
434 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
435 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
436 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
439 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
441 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
442 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
443 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
444 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
445 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
446 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).
448 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
450 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
452 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
454 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
455 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
456 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
457 caught again. This works for now.
459 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
461 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
463 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
464 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
466 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
468 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
469 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
471 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
473 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
475 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
477 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
478 changes. Both need more cleanup.
480 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
482 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
483 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
484 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
485 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
486 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
489 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
491 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
492 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
493 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
495 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
496 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
499 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
501 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
502 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
503 to a directory on another device with more free space.
505 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
507 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
508 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
510 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
512 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
515 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
516 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
518 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
519 macros, regardless of platform.
521 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
522 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
524 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
525 with x-conversions=gzip.
527 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
529 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
532 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
533 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
534 implicit definition of ioctl().
536 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
537 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
538 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
539 want to mess with them.
541 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
543 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
544 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
546 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
547 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
549 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
550 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
551 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
553 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
554 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
555 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
557 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
560 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
563 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
564 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
567 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
568 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
571 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
572 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
576 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
578 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
579 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
580 preventing compilation on at least linux.
582 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
583 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
585 Thu Sep 09 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
587 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
589 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
590 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
591 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
592 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
594 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
595 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
597 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
599 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
601 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
603 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
604 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
606 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
608 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
609 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
611 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
612 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
613 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
614 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
616 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
617 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
619 Sat Jun 09 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
621 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
622 substitute it for mktemp if available.
624 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
626 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
627 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
630 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
632 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
634 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
636 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
637 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
639 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
640 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
641 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
643 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
644 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
645 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
647 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
648 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
649 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
651 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
652 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
655 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
656 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
658 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
659 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
661 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
664 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
665 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
666 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
668 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
669 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
671 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
672 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
673 <elleron@servtech.com>.
675 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
676 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
679 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
680 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
682 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
683 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
684 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
685 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
687 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
688 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
690 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
694 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
695 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
696 would not be changed.
698 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
699 one from the Apache web server.
701 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
702 (this should have been done a long time ago).
704 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
705 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
706 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
708 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
710 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
712 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
713 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
716 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
717 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
718 removes a bad race condition.
720 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
723 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
724 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
725 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
727 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
728 sequence information.
730 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
731 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
733 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
736 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
739 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
741 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
742 interpret 034 as octal.
744 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
746 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
747 mhstore, and mhbuild.
749 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
750 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
752 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
753 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
755 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
756 in the c_cefile structure when building.
758 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
759 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
761 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
762 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
763 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
765 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
766 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
767 and mhshow. Updated man pages
769 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
771 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
773 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
774 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
777 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
779 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
780 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
782 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
783 header field information.
785 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
786 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
788 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
789 values when parsing a content.
791 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
792 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
794 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
795 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
797 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
798 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
800 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
801 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
803 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
805 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
807 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
809 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
811 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
812 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
815 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
816 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
818 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
819 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
820 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
821 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
822 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
823 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
826 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
828 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
829 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
830 buffer length checks for this parameter.
832 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
833 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
835 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
837 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
838 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
839 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
840 of the limits on the length of command lines.
842 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
843 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
846 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
847 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
848 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
849 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
852 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
856 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
857 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
859 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
860 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
861 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
862 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
865 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
866 mhbuild returns an error.
868 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
869 rename the draft file.
871 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
872 use a global variable.
874 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
875 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
877 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
878 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
880 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
881 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
882 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
884 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
885 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
887 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
888 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
891 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
892 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
895 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
896 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
898 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
899 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
900 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
902 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
903 to new function output_content_folder.
905 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
906 new function output_content_file.
908 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
909 to new function parse_format_string.
911 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
912 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
913 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
914 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
916 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
917 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
918 message/external file from ftp.
920 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
921 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
922 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
924 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
925 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
928 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
931 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
932 new file mhstoresbr.c
934 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
937 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
938 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
940 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
941 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
943 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
944 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
945 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
947 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
949 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
951 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
952 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
955 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
956 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
958 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
961 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
963 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
967 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
968 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
969 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
970 is still the same (dashstuffing).
972 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
973 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
974 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
975 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
976 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
978 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
979 But it is not on by default.
981 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
982 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
984 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
986 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
988 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
990 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
992 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
993 number of the "cur" message when packing.
995 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
999 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
1000 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
1001 uses the original name of the library.
1003 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
1004 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
1007 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
1008 list_content and list_debug.
1010 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
1012 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
1013 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.
1015 1998-02-27 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1017 * Released nmh-0.24.
1019 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
1021 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
1022 are given, that order doesn't matter.
1024 * Fix bug in seq_list.c when realloc'ing for
1025 large sequence line.
1027 1998-02-23 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1029 * Released nmh-0.23.
1031 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
1033 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
1034 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan
1035 content, decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary
1036 string). I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
1038 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
1039 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
1042 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
1044 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
1046 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
1048 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
1049 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
1051 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
1052 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.
1054 * Add note to MACHINES file that on Linux, configure
1055 doesn't find the functions sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
1057 * Fix configuration for machines that don't have (or find)
1058 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
1060 1998-02-11 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1062 * Released nmh-0.22.
1064 * Add a configure check for sigsetjmp. Add some conditional
1065 #define's in h/signals.h in case it's not found.
1067 * Added additional notes about -auto switch in mhn man page.
1069 * Added note about MM_CHARSET environment variable to
1070 mh-profile(5) man page.
1072 * Fix signal problem in mhn.c (change setjmp/longjmp to
1073 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp).
1075 1998-02-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1077 * Released nmh-0.22-pre1.
1079 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
1080 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
1082 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
1084 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
1085 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
1086 entry point for parsing MIME files.
1088 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
1089 source message on the standard input.
1091 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
1093 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
1094 rather than -rfc934mode.
1096 * Fix mhbuild, so that Content-Description and RFC-822 comments
1097 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
1100 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
1101 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).
1103 * Restore HP specific code to zotnet/tws/lexstring.c. Apparently
1106 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1108 * Released nmh-0.21.
1110 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
1111 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.
1113 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what transfer
1116 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what character set
1117 to use for text contents.
1119 * Removed old hpux specific code from zotnet/tws/lexstring.c
1121 1998-02-02 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1123 * Released nmh-0.21-pre2.
1125 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
1127 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
1128 header fields as per RFC-2047.
1130 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
1131 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
1132 spaces between encoded word are.
1134 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
1136 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
1137 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
1139 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
1140 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
1141 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
1143 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
1145 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
1146 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
1148 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.
1150 * Added support for %(decode) to fmtdump.c.
1152 * check_charset() now accepts US-ASCII as a subset of any
1153 ISO-8859-X character set.
1155 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
1158 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
1159 permissions, not write permissions.
1161 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
1162 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
1164 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
1167 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1169 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
1171 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
1172 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
1174 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
1175 message contains valid character set.
1177 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
1178 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
1180 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
1181 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
1183 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
1184 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
1185 between an encoded word and normal text.
1187 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
1188 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
1190 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
1191 as a RFC-2047 header field.
1193 * The command install-mh now recognizes the switches -version
1196 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
1197 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
1200 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
1201 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
1203 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
1204 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
1206 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
1208 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1210 * Released nmh-0.20.
1212 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
1214 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.
1216 * Changed the default format file for mhl (mhl.format) to
1217 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
1218 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
1220 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
1221 and the To: line was missing.
1223 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
1225 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1227 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
1229 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
1230 watch the POP transaction.
1232 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
1233 first, and use it if available.
1235 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
1236 first, and use it if available.
1238 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1240 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
1242 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
1243 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
1244 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
1247 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
1248 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
1249 returns the state FLDPLUS.
1251 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
1252 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
1255 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
1257 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
1258 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
1260 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
1262 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
1263 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
1265 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
1266 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
1267 message to which you are replying.
1269 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
1270 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
1271 making group replies.
1273 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
1275 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1277 * Released nmh-0.19.
1279 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
1280 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
1282 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
1283 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
1284 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
1285 to the end of the man page.
1287 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
1288 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
1289 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
1290 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
1291 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
1292 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
1294 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
1297 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
1298 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
1299 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
1301 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
1302 the next available number above the message number you wish
1305 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
1306 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
1308 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
1309 file sbr/seq_print.c
1311 * flist will now update the current folder.
1313 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
1314 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
1315 but now undocumented.
1317 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
1320 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
1321 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
1323 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
1325 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
1326 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
1328 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1330 * Released nmh-0.18.
1332 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
1333 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
1334 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
1336 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
1337 retains the public/private status of sequences.
1339 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
1340 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
1341 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
1342 previous public/private status.
1344 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
1347 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
1350 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
1351 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
1352 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
1354 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
1355 take option to determine whether it should get current
1356 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
1357 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
1359 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
1361 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
1362 wait for stopped processes.
1364 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
1365 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
1367 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1369 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
1371 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
1372 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
1374 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
1375 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
1377 * Change the way that memory for message status is
1378 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
1379 the folder/message structure. This required changing
1380 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
1382 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
1385 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
1388 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
1390 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
1391 the debugging output.
1393 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
1394 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
1396 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1398 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
1400 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
1401 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
1403 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
1405 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
1406 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
1407 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
1408 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
1409 in the given sequence.
1411 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
1412 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
1413 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
1414 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
1415 subdirectories of a given directory.
1417 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
1418 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
1419 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
1421 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
1422 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
1424 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
1426 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
1429 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
1430 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
1431 fields are now calculated at runtime.
1433 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
1434 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
1435 are calculated at runtime.
1437 Sun Nov 30 19:14:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1439 * Released nmh-0.18-pre2.
1441 * Add paragraph to man page for install-mh and to INSTALL file
1442 about checking for global mh.profile.
1444 * Renamed m_find() to context_find().
1445 Renamed m_replace() to context_replace().
1446 Renamed m_delete() to context_del().
1447 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
1448 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
1449 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
1451 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
1452 adding message to folder itself.
1454 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
1455 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
1456 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
1459 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
1460 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
1463 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
1464 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
1465 is the same as the direct smtp code).
1467 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
1468 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
1470 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
1471 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
1472 code to use it yet).
1474 Thu Nov 13 18:42:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1476 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.
1478 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never
1479 called with a value larger than 30 mintues.
1481 * Fixed race condition in rmm and refile, so that
1482 context is updated before external rmmproc is called.
1484 * Removed all the OVERHEAD code.
1486 * Move code to add message to folder from refile.c
1489 Fri Jul 25 19:39:29 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1491 * Did some rearranging of the internals of inc.c.
1493 * Make -inplace the default for anno, forw, dist, and repl.
1495 * Changed --enable-smtp to --with-mts={smtp,sendmail}
1497 * Created new directory mts/sendmail for direct sendmail
1498 interface (although it currently still uses SMTP).
1500 * Removed all the TMA (trusted mail agent) code
1502 * Removed all the TTYD (terminal access daemon) code
1504 * Removed all the MF (uucp filtering) code.
1506 * Removed all the code for BERK.
1508 * Removed all the code for stand-alone delivery (MHMTS).
1510 * Split the file mts/sendmail/smail.c into sendmail.c and
1511 smtp.c. Changed the name of the directory to mts/smtp.
1513 * Changed autoconf to use @sysconfdir@ for location of
1514 configuration files.
1516 * Changed #define in mhn.c from FTP to BUILTIN_FTP.
1518 Mon Jul 21 03:22:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1520 * Released nmh-0.17.
1522 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
1524 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
1525 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
1527 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
1530 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
1531 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
1533 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
1534 number of refiled message.
1536 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
1538 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
1539 for return value of wait().
1541 * Change configure to also check /bin for "more".
1543 Sat Jul 12 00:02:23 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1545 * Released nmh-0.16.
1547 Mon Jun 23 20:13:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1549 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
1551 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
1552 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
1553 deal with binary messages, yet).
1555 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
1557 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
1559 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
1560 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
1561 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
1562 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
1563 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
1564 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
1566 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
1567 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
1569 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
1570 From MH-6.8.4 patch.
1572 * Fix double free of ctinfo in user_content when using
1573 #forw with single message. From John MacMillan (and
1576 * Changed -mhnproc switch for show, to -showmimeproc.
1578 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".
1580 * Added "mime" option to "whatnow", which calls the program
1581 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
1584 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
1587 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
1589 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
1590 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
1591 which used unsigned chars by default.
1593 Sat Jun 21 01:21:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1595 * Released nmh-0.15.
1597 * Added new form "scan.unseen" to distribution. It marks messages

1600 * Do some rearranging of date/time code in zotnet/tws/dtime.c
1602 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
1604 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
1607 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
1608 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
1609 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
1611 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
1612 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
1614 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
1616 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
1617 they conflict with defines on AIX.
1619 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
1620 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
1621 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
1622 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
1624 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
1625 and put in own subroutine.
1627 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
1628 and put in own subroutine.
1630 * Moved code to remove messages from folder into own
1631 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and
1632 refile.c to use new routine.
1634 Fri May 16 06:09:31 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1636 * Renamed m_seqok to seq_nameok.
1638 * Changed m_setunseen, msh, mshcmds, flist, and scan to use
1641 * Changed m_seqflag to return the number of a sequence rather
1642 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
1643 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
1645 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
1648 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before
1649 adding message to sequence.
1651 * Renamed function m_setvis to m_setunseen, and renamed
1652 corresponding file in sbr.
1654 * Renamed function m_setseq to m_setprev, and renamed corresponding
1657 * Changed mark.c and pick.c to use m_seqaddsel and m_seqdelsel.
1659 * Added new function m_seqdelsel to m_seqdel.c, which deletes
1660 all selected messages from a sequence.
1662 * Added new function m_seqaddsel to m_seqadd.c, which adds all
1663 selected messages to a sequence.
1665 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,
1668 Thu May 15 00:53:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1670 * Renamed function pack_folder to m_packfolder, and moved it
1671 from uip/folder.c into its own file sbr/m_packfolder.c
1673 Wed May 14 23:38:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

1688 own termcap buffer when passed a NULL argument.
1690 Sat Apr 26 03:46:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1692 * Added new options `-checkmime', `-nocheckmime', and `-mhnproc'
1693 to show. Restructured code to handle options to various
1694 `procs' better. Deprecated `-noshowproc' option and NOMHNPROC
1695 environment variable.
1697 * Added new man page `mh-draft' which documents the
1698 draft folder facility in nmh.
1700 * Renamed fmtsbr.h to fmt_scan.h. Renamed fmtcompile.h

1707 * `send -help' wasn't showing the -(no)mime and -split
1710 Fri Apr 25 02:50:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1712 * Released nmh-0.13.
1714 * Changed mhpath so it doesn't abort if a message sequence
1715 such as "mhpath all" expands to more than 1000 messages.
1716 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
1717 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
1720 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
1721 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
1723 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1725 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if
1726 necessary. So `folders' can now handle more than 300 folders.
1728 Tue Apr 22 14:01:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1730 * Change configure to use a compile check to see if the tm struct
1731 has tm_gmtoff, rather than using egrep.
1733 Mon Apr 21 02:19:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1735 * Released nmh-0.12.
1737 * Had set_exists and unset_exists macros backwards.

1743 * Added documentation to mh-profile.man about the various
1744 `procs' (mhlproc, showproc, lproc, etc...).
1746 * Replace the bit twiddling for SELECTED, UNSEEN, and
1747 mp->attrstats with macros.
1749 * If system doesn't have SIGEMT (like Linux), then use SIGTERM
1752 * Change fstat to stat in m_gmsg.c since Linux wants
1755 * Merge Linux patch sent in by Michel Oosterhof (original
1756 patch from bsa@kf8nh.wariat.org).
1758 * Document an undocumented MH feature. mhn -form mhl.null
1759 will suppress the display of the message header.
1761 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
1763 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c
1764 and mshcmds.c, rather than hard coding in /bin/cat.
1766 * Add mhnproc to the list of `procs' in mh-profile.man.
1768 * Add configure test for lorder and tsort commands.
1770 * Commented out the padding in the `msgs` struct in h/mh.h
1772 * Change m_gmsg.c to allocate elements to the `info' array by
1773 500 elements at a time (rather than MAXFOLDERS / 5).
1775 * Add note to man page for mhmail that zero length messages are
1776 not sent. Need to use -body "" to send empty messages.
1778 * zotnet/mts/mts.c : compare character with '\0', not NULL.
1780 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
1782 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
1783 folder/message structure when done with folder.
1785 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is
1786 defined even if message is missing "From " line.
1788 Mon Mar 31 03:37:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1790 * Released nmh-0.10.

1797 Thu Mar 20 03:21:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1799 * Reversed previous decision to retain "From " lines in slocal.
1800 The "From " line is now removed from all messages.
1802 * inc now saves the date from the "From " envelope in the
1803 Delivery-Date header for all messages.
1805 * sbr/m_getfld.c: Clean up processing of Return-Path and
1806 Delivery-Date from the "From " envelope.
1808 Mon Mar 17 19:03:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1810 * client.c: cast iaddr to int before comparing return value
1811 of inet_addr with NOTOK.
1813 Tue Mar 11 04:38:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1815 * Grep test for signal names was failing on some OS'es because

1818 Sat Mar 8 01:58:22 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1820 * Released nmh-0.09.
1822 * Move config files and format files to *.old before installing.
1824 * Add configure check for killpg.

1831 Thu Mar 6 04:03:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1833 * Added `-mime' and `-nomime' options to `repl'.
1836 Tue Mar 4 03:10:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1838 * ruserpass.c : removed conflicting prototypes.
1840 * rcvtty.c : Fixed rcvtty to obey terminal permissions granted
1841 by `mesg' command. Previously only worked on BSD machines.
1843 Mon Mar 3 00:18:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1845 * rcvtty.c : Changed to use #define UTMP_FILE (if exists) rather
1846 than hard coded "/etc/utmp".
1848 * Released nmh-0.08.
1850 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
1851 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of
1852 locking database itself.
1854 Thu Feb 27 05:28:09 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1856 * Added slocal action `mmdf' to deliver to a file in mmdf format.
1858 * Changed the slocal actions `file' and `>' to always deliver in
1859 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
1862 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
1863 rather than mmdf format.
1865 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
1866 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
1867 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
1868 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
1870 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
1872 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1874 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
1877 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
1878 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
1879 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
1881 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
1882 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
1883 rcvpack so you can choose the preferred format.
1885 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1887 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
1888 can still easily change this in config.h).
1890 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
1891 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
1892 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
1894 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1896 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather
1897 than tzset and external timezone variable.
1899 Thu Feb 13 00:35:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1901 * Fixed typo in ruserpass.c in the variable toktabs.
1903 * When ruserpass was added to LIBOBJS, it was missing
1906 * Released nmh-0.07.
1908 Tue Feb 11 01:29:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1910 * Add check to configure, so that if ruserpass, or _ruserpass
1911 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
1913 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
1914 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
1917 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
1918 built-in FTP client in mhn.
1920 * Added configure check for ushort and ulong. Change code
1921 to use ushort/ulong rather than u_short/u_long.
1923 * A couple of small cleanups in locking code.
1925 * Added configure check for gmtoff element in struct tm.
1927 * Added configure check for tzset.
1929 Fri Feb 7 03:01:57 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1931 * Released nmh-0.06.
1933 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
1934 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
1936 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
1937 many such machines around anymore.
1939 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
1940 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
1942 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
1943 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
1945 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1947 * Check lex generated file in zotnet/tws and use
1948 pre-generated version if necessary.
1950 * Released nmh-0.05.
1952 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
1953 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
1954 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
1955 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
1957 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
1958 be linked in one pass.
1960 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1962 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
1963 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
1965 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1967 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
1969 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1971 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
1972 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
1973 become the current folder.
1975 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1977 * Released nmh-0.04.
1979 * Define ospeed and PC in termsbr.c is OS doesn't have
1982 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1984 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
1985 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
1986 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
1988 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1990 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
1991 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
1993 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1995 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
1996 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
1999 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
2000 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
2002 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2004 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
2005 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
2006 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
2007 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
2008 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
2009 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
2011 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2013 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
2014 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
2016 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
2017 a file (currently need to specify full path).
2019 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2021 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
2022 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
2024 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2026 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
2027 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
2028 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
2030 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2032 * Released nmh-0.03.
2034 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
2035 .mh_sequence file existed.
2037 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
2038 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
2040 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
2041 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
2044 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2046 * Changed flist option -unseen to -[no]all. Cleaned up
2049 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2051 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
2052 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
2053 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
2055 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2057 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
2058 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
2059 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
2061 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2063 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL
2064 and allocate its own buffer. Borrowed from zsh.
2066 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
2068 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2070 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
2071 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
2072 directory from where the source code is located.
2074 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2076 * Released nmh-0.02.
2078 Wed Jan 1 17:41:52 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

2083 Tue Dec 31 03:07:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2085 * Changed code to use strerror, rather than using sys_errlist
2086 and sys_nerr directly.
2088 Mon Dec 30 02:15:25 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2090 * -compat switch from install-mh removed.
2092 * Changed the default POP port from "pop" to "pop3".
2094 Sat Dec 28 13:25:05 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2096 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
2097 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
2098 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
2099 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
2100 rather than in script.
2102 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2104 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
2106 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with
2107 macro defined on Solaris.
2109 Thu Dec 26 02:50:15 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2111 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
2112 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
2114 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
2115 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
2116 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
2117 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
2120 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2122 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
2123 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.
2125 * Fixed configure test so that termcap variable ospeed is
2128 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2130 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
2132 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included
2133 in mhn.c. Changed md5 to use memset and memcpy.
2135 Fri Dec 20 02:29:37 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2137 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
2138 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
2140 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2142 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
2143 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
2144 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
2145 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
2146 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
2147 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
2149 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2151 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
2153 * Released nmh-0.01.
2155 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
2156 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
2157 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
2160 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2162 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
2165 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2167 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
2168 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
2170 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2172 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
2173 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
2174 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
2175 script to find_program.
2177 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2179 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
2180 speed up -recurse option.
2182 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
2183 yet, but it compiles :-)
2185 * Changed default location for install to
2186 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
2187 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
2188 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
2191 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
2192 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
2193 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
