1 2008-08-13 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
3 * test/tests/bad-input/test-header: Add test for it.
5 * sbr/m_getfld.c: If we reach the end of the line without finding
6 a ':' when parsing a header field, treat that line as the
7 beginning of the body rather than blowing up. These messages are
8 usually spam, but it's nice to be able to at least scan them.
10 2008-08-12 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
12 * test/tests/mhshow/test-qp: Test various valid and invalid
15 * uip/mhparse.c (openQuoted): Simplify the decode-or-show for loop by
16 peeking ahead to the next byte(s) when encountering '=', and just let
17 invalid escape sequences through as literals (fixes bug #15245).
19 2008-08-12 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
21 * autogen.sh (new file): add script for running the GNU
22 autotools in the right order
23 * INSTALL: mention that you need to run autogen.sh if you
25 * docs/README.developers: mention autogen.sh rather than
26 suggesting running autoheader and autoconf by hand.
27 * test/setup-test: run autotools via autogen.sh
29 2008-08-08 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
31 * sbr/discard.c, sbr/m_getfld.c, uip/scansbr.c: Add support for
32 DragonFlyBSD stdio (from NetBSD pkgsrc).
34 2008-08-05 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
36 * uip/folder.c: chdir(nmhdir) in main rather than in dodir, which
37 is called many times. Drop the chdir in get_folder_info, which
38 served no purpose at all. If struct stat has d_type (BSD), use
39 that to skip processing (strcmp, stat, and so on) of message
40 files, mostly undoing the slow-down from the last change.
42 * configure.in: Call CHECK_TYPE_STRUCT_DIRENT_D_TYPE.
44 * aclocal.m4: Add CHECK_TYPE_STRUCT_DIRENT_D_TYPE from
47 2008-08-04 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
49 * uip/folder.c: Simplify dodir/addir/addfold. Dump hacky
50 over-optimization in addir that tried to avoid readdir after all
51 child directories had been read; this was also trying to support
52 symlinks to directories, but would have been failing (because
53 nlink may have gone to 0 with symlinks to directories remaining)
54 had the lstat usage been correct (lstat doesn't fail for normal
55 directories; should have used S_ISLNK).
57 2008-08-03 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
59 * test/setup-test: use 'set -e' so we stop on compile failure.
60 Configure --enable-debug for convenience in debugging.
62 * uip/whatnowsbr.c: bug #23319: rework the way we handle the working
63 directory when invoking the user's shell, so that we don't have
64 issues when the cwd contains a space or shell special character.
65 * test/tests/whatnow/test-attach-detach, test/tests/whatnow/test-cd,
66 test/tests/whatnow/test-ls: test cases for this.
68 * sbr/fmt_compile.c: add 'do { ... } while (0)' wrappers
69 to various multi-statement macros to avoid nasty surprises
70 if the macros are used in if() clauses.
72 * bug #23436: man/scan.man, man/forw.man, man/inc.man,
73 man/mh-chart.man, man/mhmail.man, man/mhshow.man,
74 man/mhstore.man, man/msgchk.man, man/packf.man, man/scan.man:
75 fix minor syntax errors groff warns about.
76 * test/runtest, test/README: allow test cases to report
77 that they have been SKIPped as well as PASS/FAIL
78 * test/tests/manpages/test-manpages - new test which runs groff
79 on the manpages and checks that there are no warnings.
80 * test/runalltests: ignore editor backup files
82 2008-08-03 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
84 * etc/replcomps, etc/replgroupcomps: Trim trailing whitespace from
87 2008-08-03 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
89 * sbr/fmt_compile.c: when doing an if-test on the result
90 of a function which returns a string result, check whether
91 the string is non-empty (as the documentation says we do).
92 Previously we were always testing the integer 'value'. Bug
93 spotted by Eric Gillespie.
94 * test/tests/repl/test-if-str: test case for this bug
96 2008-07-24 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
98 * test/setup-test: Run 'make clean' before building
100 2008-07-24 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
102 * test/runtest: cat test-temp-dir only once. Destroy and create
103 test Mail hierarchy here, so each test has its own independent
106 * test/setup-test: Drop needless pushd/popd, which don't exist in
107 sh anyway. Don't use aclocal, which is part of automake.
108 Don't create Mail hierarchy here (see test/runtest).
110 * test/tests/folder/test-create, tests/folder/test-total: Drop
113 * tests/pick/test-pick: Remove failing no-op test.
115 * test/tests/scan/test-scan: Write expected and actual output to
116 files and diff them. This way, if the output differs, diff
117 provides the FAILing exit code and shows the differences.
119 2008-06-12 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
120 * man/repl.man, etc/mhl.reply:
121 Add an attribution line when replying to messages.
123 2008-06-02 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
125 * h/mh.h, h/prototypes.h, sbr/done.c, uip/inc.c,
126 uip/mhbuild.c, uip/mhlist.c, uip/mhn.c, uip/mhshow.c,
127 uip/mhstore.c, uip/mhtest.c, uip/packf.c, uip/pick.c,
128 uip/rcvdist.c, uip/rcvstore.c, uip/sendsbr.c: when
129 building on gcc, use the noreturn attribute on various
130 functions (should improve code and avoid some spurious
131 'uninitialized variable' warnings).
133 2008-06-01 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
135 * docs/README.developers: update the bits about doing a
136 release announcement, now I've actually done one.
138 2008-05-22 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
140 * uip/scansbr.c: don't use MB_CUR_MAX if we aren't compiled
141 with multibyte support.
143 * uip/whatnowsbr.c: factor out common code for writing ls
144 shell command, and make it do more sensible buffer length
145 checks. Also avoid relying on the return value of sprintf(),
146 as some old systems don't return number of characters written.
148 2008-05-21 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
150 * sbr/utils.c (mh_xrealloc): don't assume realloc() can
151 handle NULL pointers; some non-POSIX realloc()s can't.
153 * sbr/dtimep.lex: add some table size declarations for the
154 benefit of elderly lexes with small defaults.
156 2008-05-18 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
158 * sbr/addrsbr.c: removed "err" from conditional, because gcc
159 correctly warned that it would always evaluate as true. It's
160 the address of a static array.
162 2008-05-16 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
164 * sbr/Makefile.in, config/Makefile.in: Don't use $< in target rules
165 in makefiles, as POSIX says it's only defined in inference rules.
167 2008-05-13 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
169 * configure.in, INSTALL: if --enable-masquerade is not
170 specified to configure, enable all supported masquerade forms.
171 This allows users to masquerade with the default
172 configuration. That seems to be more worthwhile now than
173 trying to prevent users from using it, especially with
174 single-user installations or those where a user can edit
177 2008-05-04 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
179 * bug #23167: sbr/ruserpass.c (ruserpass): make bad permissions
180 on .netrc be an instantly fatal error. Previously we returned
181 an error value; however, no caller was checking it. So now
182 ruserpass() has a void return type.
184 * bug #23163: various minor fixes for the benefit of
185 older Unixes (specifically SunOS 4):
186 reintroduce strerror() substitute implementation
187 provide memmove() substitute implementation
189 * bug #23163: fix accidentally broken 'build outside
190 source directory' feature
192 * bug #23162: sbr/dtime.c: fix stray HAVE_TM_GMTOFF that
193 wasn't updated to the new macro name.
195 2008-04-30 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
197 * mts/smtp/smtp.c: provide a callback for SASL_CB_AUTHNAME
198 (fixes issue with SASL sending the wrong username in some
199 circumstances). Thanks to <der_wachtmeister@freenet.de>
202 2008-04-29 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
204 * Revert previous attempt at fix for SASL issue as it
205 is the wrong approach.
207 * Fix in correct manner, by making sm_rrecord() and thus
208 sm_hear() set the length of the reply string correctly
209 (the SASL libraries now care if you pass in the wrong
212 * Correct various places in smtp.c where the reply string
213 might not have been correctly NUL-terminated. Includes a
214 fix for a particularly nasty and long standing screwup
215 where the buffer length counting in smhear() was totally
216 broken for continued lines from the server.
218 2008-04-29 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
220 * Cope with sasl_decode64() returning SASL_CONTINUE, as
221 happens with newer sasl libraries and LOGIN auth.
223 2008-04-27 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
225 * Updated some of the 'how to do a release' documentation.
227 * Upped the VERSION string to '1.3-dev', since 1.3-RC1 has
230 2008-04-27 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
232 * Released nmh-1.3 RC1.
234 2008-04-11 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
236 * acconfig.h, configure.in, sbr/dtime.c, sbr/pidwait.c,
237 uip/mhshowsbr.c, uip/rcvtty.c, uip/slocal.c, uip/termsbr.c:
238 move most remaining macros out of acconfig.h which is an
239 obsolete feature of autoconf
241 2008-04-05 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
243 * bug #18655: fix use of admonish() for a fatal error (should
244 be adios(); only actual effect would be wrong exit code).
245 Thanks to Craig Leres for spotting this.
247 2008-04-05 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
249 * bug #20028 (Debian bug 399271): fix code assuming that pointer
250 differences were 32 bits -- thanks to Dean Gaudet for the patch.
252 2008-01-25 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
254 * uip/mhshowsbr.c (show_all_messages): Be more generous when parsing
257 2007-11-04 Joel Reicher <joel@panacea.null.org>
259 * Changed done() link overriding to function pointer. Return type
260 is now void so that exit() can be used as done() callback. Dead
261 code return from all done()s removed, with return 1 in main()
262 following done() (should never be reached).
264 2007-08-21 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
266 * Red Hat Bug #253342: inc.c, utils.c, utils.h: When inc is run with
267 the -silent flag, don't exit(1) for no apparent reason.
269 2007-03-12 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
271 * bug #18630, #18631, #18632, #18634: various patches from
272 Craig Leres fixing error message argument problems.
274 2007-03-12 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
276 * bug #15212: configure.in, acconfig.h: remove configure test for
277 broken AT&T vi. This test was broken (it was always returning
278 failure even for non-broken vi implementations) and
279 unfixable. Nobody should be using AT&T vi any more so I have
280 simply moved it back to being a setting you can put manually into
281 acconfig.h if you must.
283 2006-10-24 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
285 * uip/sendsbr.c: with attachformat values of 1 or 2, add
286 name= portion to Content-Type header. This makes them
287 consistent with attachformat value 0. And it allows mhstore
288 to use that (file)name when extracting attachments.
290 2006-08-26 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
292 * configure.in: If we're not using dotlocking, there is no need to set
295 2006-03-30 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
297 * uip/sendsbr.c: with attachformat values of 1 or 2, only
298 generate Content-Disposition headers for MIME attachments, not
299 for the message contents themselves. Microsoft Outlook Build
300 10.0.6626, at least, doesn't show the message contents if they
301 have Content-Disposition.
303 2006-03-09 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
305 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c (decode_rfc2047): Don't close the iconv descriptor
308 2006-03-08 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
310 * (mh_strcasecmp): Rename the private strcasecmp function to
311 mh_strcasecmp. This keeps the newer gnu linker happy.
313 2006-03-05 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
315 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c: don't try to malloc 0 bytes if an RFC2047
316 encoded block is empty
318 2006-03-04 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
320 * etc/Makefile.in: use INSTALL_SCRIPT to install scripts;
321 this allows INSTALL_PROGRAM to be set to 'install -s' so
322 binaries are stripped on installation. Apparently the BSDs
325 2006-02-25 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
327 * uip/sendsbr.c: replaced st_mtim with st_mtime, that's what
328 it should have been. Added #include of h/tws.h to pick up
331 2006-02-20 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
333 * h/mh.h, h/prototypes.h, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, uip/send.c,
334 uip/sendsbr.c, uip/viamail.c, uip/whatnowsbr.c, man/send.man:
335 added -attachformat switch to send, to support alternate MIME
336 header contents when using -attach. See send man page for
339 * man/mhbuild.man: wrapped one appearance of "Content-Disposition"
340 with quotes, to be consistent with others.
342 2006-02-20 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
344 * h/utils.h, sbr/utils.c, uip/flist.c, uip/folder.c: Move duplicate
345 function num_digits into utils.c
347 2006-02-19 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
349 * sbr/m_draft.c, sbr/utils.c, uip/folder.c, uip/inc.c,
350 uip/mhstoresbr.c, uip/popi.c, uip/refile.c: Add create_folder()
351 function, replacing duplicate code during folder creation.
353 2006-02-18 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
355 * h/mime.h, h/mhparse.h, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, uip/mhfree.c,
356 man/mhbuild.man, docs/TODO: added support for an optional
357 Content-Disposition header in mhbuild (only). Its contents
358 are supplied between {}, positioned after the optional [], in
359 a mhbuild directive. If the contents do not contain a
360 "filename=" parameter, and the directive has a filename, or
361 something else that ends with "name=", then that will be used
362 to add a "filename=" parameter to the header.
364 2006-02-12 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
366 * docs/TODO: added RFC2183 to reference of RFC1806 for
367 Content-Disposition header.
369 2006-01-31 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
371 * uip/mhbuild.c, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, man/mhbuild.man: added
372 -nocontentid switch, to disable generation of Content-ID:
373 header in MIME messages. (Also added -contentid for
374 symmetry.) The default configuration of Microsoft Outlook,
375 Build 10.0.3416 in particular, doesn't see attachments in
376 incoming messages if there are Content-ID headers, see
377 http://home.cwru.edu/~wrv/eudoraoutlookfix.html. This allows
378 users to easily accomodate that by adding
379 mhbuild: -nocontentid to their .mh_profile.
381 2006-01-29 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
383 * bug 4360: uip/replsbr.c: remove trailing newlines from components
384 to fix bug with spaces at the end of Subject/References in replies
386 2006-01-18 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
388 * configure.in: use AS_HELP_STRING for formatting help messages
390 * configure.in, sbr/fmt_scan.c: add autoconf magic to support
391 old systems that don't support multibyte character sets
393 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: fix bug with insertion of newline being wrong if
394 the num function was used at the end of the format buffer
396 2006-01-17 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
398 * uip/post.c, uip/spost.c: in make_bcc_file (), use same
399 logic as in finish_headers () to detect whether there is an
400 existing From: line in the draft. If draft_from masquerade
401 flag is enabled, this allows the From: to be obeyed in the
402 Bcc, instead of the old behavior of always replacing it with
405 2006-01-17 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
407 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: more robust multi-byte/column support for field
408 widths, restoring right justification feature
410 2006-01-16 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
412 * h/aliasbr.h, h/rcvmail.h, man/Makefile.in, man/slocal.man,
413 sbr/lock_file.c, uip/aliasbr.c, uip/dropsbr.c, uip/post.c,
414 uip/slocal.c, man/mh-mts.man: remove remnants of code for MMDF
416 * uip/scansbr.c: multiply buffer size by MB_CUR_MAX so multi-byte
419 2006-01-14 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
421 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: Turn the PUTSF macro into a function capable of
422 handling multi column characters.
424 2006-01-07 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
426 * Remove sbr/strerror.c -- strerror(3) is defined in C89.
428 2006-01-06 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
430 * patch #3968: Move the add() function from its own file (add.c) and
431 into utils.c. There was also a duplicate add() function in mf.c which
434 2006-01-02 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
436 * Remove sbr/pwd.c file, moving the pwd() function into sbr/utils.c.
438 2006-01-01 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
440 * patch #3967: Create a mh_xrealloc function to prevent mistakes when
443 2006-01-01 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
445 * patch #3966: Create a mh_xmalloc function to prevent mistakes when
448 2005-12-24 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
450 * Bug #15285: Don't use $< in target rules in makefiles, as POSIX
451 says it's only defined in inference rules. (BSD make was expanding
452 $< to the empty string in the rule for building sbr/dtimep.c, which
453 causes lex to apparently hang because it's reading from stdin.)
455 2005-12-24 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
457 * Completely redo db library checking -- we now check for working
458 (include file, library) pairs rather than checking for headers and
459 libraries separately. We also now provide --with-ndbm=lib and
460 --with-ndbmheader=header options to configure to handle situations
461 where configure's autodetection fails.
463 2005-12-21 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
465 * Fix stupid accidental dependence on a bash quirk in previous
466 configure script change.
468 2005-12-15 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
470 * Improve checking for Berkeley db libraries: configure should now
471 find a suitable library on systems with new gdbm where
472 compatibility functions are in the gdbm_compat library, and on
475 2005-12-13 Michael Forrest <mef@computer.org>
477 * Fedora Bug #163760: sbr/context_read.c (context_read): Ensure that
478 the context is only read once.
480 2005-12-12 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
482 * uip/sendsbr.c (annoaux): Fix the call to annotate() fixing a bug
483 which prevented repl from properly annotating messages.
485 2005-12-07 Jon Steinhart <nmh@fourwinds.com>
487 * Fixed a bug where anno -append put the headers in the wrong place
488 if applied to a message that didn't contain any headers.
490 * Added a special value of "all" to the -number option that causes
491 anno -delete to delete all matching components instead of just
494 * Added new -preserve and -nopreserve options. Using -preserve
495 retains the original last accessed and last modified times on
498 2005-12-05 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
500 * Fedora Bug #174983: configure.in: Fix the AC_PATH_PROG default when
501 vi isn't found during build.
503 2005-11-19 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
505 * bug #14977: sbr/context_read.c: special case an MHCONTEXT of
506 "/dev/null" and don't try to lock it.
508 * bug #9228, debian bug #146449: man/mh-profile.man: make it clearer
509 that lower case environment variables (and in particular mheditor)
510 are internal to nmh and not intended to be set by the user.
512 2005-11-09 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
514 * sbr/mf.c: fix buffer overrun with absurdly long addresses
515 (only causes crashes if scan is run with '-width 16536' or similar)
517 * bug #7917: sbr/context_foil.c, sbr/context_read.c,
518 sbr/context_save.c: mark 'no context' with NULL rather than
519 "/dev/null" so we don't inadvertently try to lock /dev/null (which
520 takes up to a minute in some locking configurations and makes post
523 * patch #3913: uip/post.c: pass some globals into sm_init() so that
524 it uses SASL if necessary. (This bug was preventing Bcc'd emails
525 from being sent via SASL authenticated SMTP.)
527 * bug #9813: uip/rmf.c: don't crash if there's no Current-Folder
528 entry in the context file.
530 2005-11-13 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
532 * bug #7833: uip/Makefile.in: remove link to install-mh that caused
533 problems on some systems
535 * bug #739: Makefile.in: install target now depends on all to avoid
536 problem on case-insensitive file systems with the INSTALL file
538 2005-11-10 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
540 * Fedora Bug #172838: configure.in: Fix the AC_PATH_PROG default when
541 sendmail isn't found during build.
543 2005-11-09 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
545 * h/aliasbr.h: fix a non-ANSI prototype.
547 2005-11-08 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
549 * Simon Burge: acconfig.h, configure.in, uip/rcvtty.c, uip/slocal.c:
550 fix to handle getutent() on NetBSD
552 * INSTALL, README, docs/README.about, man/nmh.man: update most
553 references to the web page and mailing list locations
555 * bug #10230: etc/Makefile.in, man/Makefile.in, uip/Makefile.in:
556 Michael De La Rue: prepend DESTDIR to install locations
558 * configure.in, */Makefile.in, mts/smtp/smtp.c: replace obsolete
561 2005-11-06 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
563 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, sbr/fmt_scan.c, h/prototypes.h: fix various
564 possible overruns of the buffers in fmt_scan() which would cause
565 crashes if scan was run with '-width 16536' or similar.
567 * uip/popsbr.c: fix compile error which only showed up if nmh
568 was configured with --enable-apop.
570 * Debian Bug# 245932, RedHat Bug# 172388: uip/mhparse.c: don't
571 crash when handling a multipart MIME message with an invalid
572 Content-Type header (file handle was being fclose()d twice).
574 * sbr/Makefile.in: adjust lex command to work on both old and
575 new versions of flex.
577 * configure.in: add an AC_PREREQ() so autoconf 2.13 gives a helpful
578 error message and the Debian autoconf-version-guessing wrapper
579 doesn't guess wrongly.
581 2005-11-02 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
583 * Debian Bug# 320069: Nick Rusnov: uip/popsbr.c: fail when
584 kpop connection attempted without KPOP support compiled in
586 * Debian Bug# 320090: Nick Rusnov: sbr/Makefile.in: fix for newer
587 version of flex and remove autogenerated file from cvs
589 * patch #1155: uip/flist.c: speed up flist by skipping stat on
590 files with numbers as names
592 * docs/Makefile.in: include new files in distribution
594 2005-10-11 Bill Wohler <wohler@newt.com>
596 * docs/FAQ: fold questions into MH FAQ and distribute that instead
598 2005-10-05 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
600 * Harald Geyer: h/mh.h, uip/replsbr.c: back out previous change
601 (fork/vfork) and replace with code that handles the issue directly
603 2005-05-18 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
605 * Debian Bug# 143485: Nick Rusnov: h/mh.h: use fork instead of
608 * Debian Bug# 261592: Harald Geyer: uip/mhlsbr.c, uip/replsbr.c:
609 test/report error writing to stdout
611 * mts/smtp/smtp.c, uip/popsbr.c: correct SASL include file locations
613 * docs/COMPLETION-BASH: bash completion definitions from Debian
615 * patch #2863: savannah@brisammon.fastmail.fm: sbr/folder_read.c:
616 fix a bug affecting AFS where nmh was setting the READONLY flag
617 for a folder even when you do have write access to the folder
619 * Carl Mummert: h/fmt_compile.h, man/mh-format.man,
620 sbr/fmt_compile.c, sbr/fmt_scan.c: add unquote() function for
621 removing quotes from RFC-2822 encoded headers
623 2005-02-23 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
625 * use iconv to convert RFC-2047 encoded headers to the
626 character set used by the current locale
628 * sbr/folder_read.c fix Debian bug #202667: crash when a
629 message's filename overflows an int when converted
631 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
632 versions (from automake 1.9.5)
634 2005-02-21 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
636 * sbr/getpass.c fix bug where inc crashed on failing to reopen
639 2005-01-27 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
641 * Added -proxy option to inc and msgchk. Based on old patch
642 from Michael Richardson.
644 * On systems where it is available, use nl_langinfo to get the
645 character set if MM_CHARSET is unset
647 2005-01-21 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
649 * sbr/check_charset.c US-ASCII is a subset of UTF-8 so can be
650 handled directly when UTF-8 is being used
652 2004-12-17 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
654 * uip/mhmisc.c Fix -part option to mhshow/mhlist/mhstore to
655 find sub-parts of the specified part
657 2004-11-19 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
659 * h/prototypes.h, sbr/folder_addmsg.c, uip/mhstoresbr.c,
660 uip/rcvstore.c, uip/refile.c: Added mail directory argument to
661 folder_addmsg in order to make it possible to provide a path to
662 the ext_hook call that is mailpath-based. A problem existed when
663 a folder was a symbolic link and the pwd call would return the
664 path relative to the filesystem, not to mailpath. A new argument
665 was needed because there was otherwise no reasonable way to get
668 2004-11-16 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
670 * sbr/folder_pack.c: Fixed problem where the refile hook was being
671 called after a message was renamed so that it wasn't around for
672 the hook. The hook is now called before the message file is
675 * sbr/folder_addmsg.c: Fixed wrong directory for hook when
676 refiling with -src option.
678 2004-10-15 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
680 * uip/sortm.c: Fixed calling of external hooks.
682 2004-10-12 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
684 * uip/inc.c: Fixed another weird bug caused by the static
685 mailpath being overwritten.
687 * uip/sendsbr.c: Fixed bug that caused anno to mangle headers.
689 * sbr/lock_file.c: Fixed strange bug that prevented a lock from
690 ever being obtained if getting it failed the first time. The
691 problem was that the string of XXXXXX that is required by
692 mkstemp() was overwritten the first time through, and so all
693 subsequent times failed because mkstemp() failed. The fix
694 reinitializes the tmp file string.
696 * uip/inc.c: Fixed bug in which the static maildir was overwritted
697 if a format string was read from the profile.
699 * sbr/folder_delmsgs.c: Fixed bug that was producing an incorrect
700 path for the external hook.
702 2003-10-06 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
704 * uip/slocal.c, configure.in: db configuration fix for Debian; yet
705 another location for ndbm.
707 2003-09-30 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
709 * Fix 'pick' so handling of options "-list" and "-seq" are
711 * Fix 'inc' realloc error when bringing in more than 100 msgs
713 * Patches submitted by Nick Rusnov from Debian archive applied:
716 136976 - Handle binary content messages
717 143427 - mh-format.man typo
718 144098 - 'spost; should have same behavior as 'post'
719 w.r.t. mts.conf masquerade line
720 149745 - slocal ignores 'N' result of previous command
721 152728 - increase SMTP timeouts to conform to RFC 1123
722 The timeouts suggested by the RFC seem long
723 to me - but the RFC is still listed as active.
724 181867 - typo for nmh.man
726 2003-08-10 Jeffrey C Honig <jch@honig.net>
728 * Fix problem where parsing of address/date fields in fmt_compile
729 is optimized to the first instance. The first instance may be in
730 contitional code which will result in cached data to
731 be used. Instead, convert c_flags to a flags field from a boolean
732 and parse on the first use.
733 * Remove some unused flag bits.
735 Fri Jul 01 22:02:00 2003 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
737 * Applied fixes for configuration problems with Solaris and
738 systems with gdbm instead of db1 (includes bug #2024)
740 #578 - repl leaks umask
741 #1393 - sortm core dumps
742 #1650 - msh leaks file descriptors
743 #1730 - Double free() in mhfree.c:free_encoding()
744 #3356 - In-Reply-To header in default replcomps should be
746 * Revised man page for mh-format (bug #2031)
747 * New replcomps, etc, with Fcc: +outbox in default versions
749 Sat Mar 17 03:18:15 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
751 * Ken Hornstein's configure.in Cyrus SASL checks were doing
752 `x"$with_cyrus_sasl" != "no"' instead of `... != x"no"'.
754 Tue Mar 06 21:04:27 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
756 * Found some historical information about MH in RFC 808.
757 Supplemented it with info from Jerry Peek's MH book and added it
758 to docs/README.about.
760 Tue Feb 6 20:35:40 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
762 * sbr/dtime.c Use the same Y2K correction code as dtimep.lex
764 * sbr/dtimep.lex Restrict the parser to accept either
765 a numerical timezone offset, or a symbolic one (e.g. EST),
766 but not both (Since "2000 -400 EDT" might cause a double
767 subtraction of 60 minutes if both are parsed. One should be
770 Mon Feb 05 20:22:54 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
772 * -L isn't sufficient for specifying the path of the Cyrus SASL
773 shared library. That'll allow us to link successfully, but on
774 many/most OSes that won't allow us to find libsasl at runtime. On
775 Solaris, we need to specify the library path with -R as well (or
776 else the user will have to use the $LD_LIBRARY_PATH kludge, which
777 is considered harmful). This fix should be extended to other OSes
780 * Print whether we have SASL support in the "nmh configuration"
781 summary configure prints out.
783 * Say in README.developers to use `\date' in case anyone is like
784 me and has `date' aliased in their shell to use a nonstandard (but
785 subjectively more readable) format.
787 Thu Jan 25 21:15:52 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
789 * man/mh-chart.man has updated synposes of
792 Tue Jan 23 20:26:15 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
794 * etc/digestcomps tried to force dates into a
795 19xx when it's not necessary.
797 Fri Jan 19 21:22:08 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
799 * First round of manpage updates finished. They
800 are standardized on -man macros, with minimal
803 * man/tmac.h.in is no longer needed, since the
804 manpages do not depend on them anymore. Note:
805 strict "man" programs that didn't allow ".so"
806 sourcing outside the man tree will now format
807 the man pages correctly.
809 * man/vmh.1 is no longer built, since uip/vmh isn't
811 Tue Jan 9 6:01:22 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
813 * Finished manpages ali-prev
815 * Removed deprecated files from the repository.
816 Specifically, those rooted in zotnet/ and mts/sendmail
817 mts/mmdf. "cvs update -dP" will give a pruned directory
820 * Updated docs/Makefile.in to include README.manpages, and
821 uip/Makefile.in to include popi.c (which isn't being built,
822 though). This allows "make nmhdist" to create an archive that
823 is file-for-file identical to the current cvs repository.
825 Sun Dec 31 20:48:50 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
827 * Create docs/README.manpages, which details
828 the formatting rules I've been using.
832 Sat Dec 30 9:50:13 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
834 * Created a new file "DATE" to hold the date
835 of the most recent nmh release. This date will be
836 used in the manpages.
838 * Updated docs/README.developers to add the step
839 of updating DATE. Also, updated configure to
840 read in the contents of the file as the variable
843 * Started work on updating man pages, with only
844 ali finished so far. Changes: 1) no dependence
845 on an external macro file, 2) uses only
846 -man macros (although I may be mistaken in this),
847 3) syntax in the SYNOPSIS is a little more
848 in line with standard UNIX documentation, such as
849 bold flags and italicized parameters.
851 Sun Dec 24 10:06:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
853 * Updated INSTALL with information about the
854 --with-locking option.
856 * Fixed the Hesiod tests in configure.in. In
857 systems where res_send was in -lresolv, this
858 information was not being communicated to the
859 HESIOD_LIBS var. Now, if res_send is not found
860 in the default libraries, it's assumed to be
861 in -lresolv, and thus -lresolv is appended to
862 HESIOD_LIBS, which will need that to avoid
863 undefined symbols problems.
865 * Fixed the Kerberos tests in configure.in. New
866 versions of Kerberos 5 have renamed -lcrypto
867 to -lk5crypto (circa krb5 1.1 or thereabouts). The
868 new test tries to determine if -lk5crypto exists. If so,
869 this is a new krb5 system. If not, test for -lcrypto
870 and the rest of old krb5. If that fails, look
871 for a genuine krb4 installation.
873 Fri Dec 22 22:08:51 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
875 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in msgchk.man.
876 -snoop was documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
878 Fri Dec 22 23:42:16 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
880 * Made a new ./configure option called
881 "--with-locking" that allows the file
882 locking mechanism to be chosen there instead of
883 requiring a manual edit of config.h.
885 * If the option is not explicitly set, or an
886 invalid option is specified, "dot" locking is
887 chosen. Valid options are "dot", "fcntl",
888 "flock", and "lockf". We need a way to tell
889 the user that these are the valid options, and
890 change the flag "--with-locking" if it's not
893 Fri Dec 22 19:21:29 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
895 * Remove the lex-specific memory hints at the
896 beginning of sbr/dtimep.lex. We've already
897 committed to supporting flex only, since
898 lex does not easily allow us to parse a single
899 string, as well as other problems documented
900 below and on nmh-workers.
902 * Added a switch statement to configure.in to
903 test for Mac OS X. If this is the case, LDFLAGS
904 should not contain "-s" since the linker rejects
907 * Updated MACHINES to include Mac OS X Public Beta,
908 as well as Linux 2.4 running glibc 2.2.
910 Wed Dec 20 16:00:46 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
912 * Marked deprecated directories in docs/README.developers
913 as deprecated, with pointers to the new code location.
914 Eventually these deprecated directories should go away.
916 Tue Dec 19 19:16:37 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
918 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in inc.man. -snoop was
919 documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
921 Thu Dec 14 14:32:09 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
923 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
924 versions on ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/config, dated
925 12-07-00. This should prevent configure from failing
926 on newer operating systems because config.{guess,sub}
927 couldn't correctly identify them.
929 Thu Dec 14 1:30:44 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
931 * Fixed the circular dependency created when I moved
932 zotnet/mts to mts/generic and merged them into libmts.
933 mts/generic/client.c and mts/generic/mts.c are now in sbr/
934 (and thus in libmh), which makes libmh self-contained and
935 not depending on an external archive.
937 * All include statements now look for mts.h in h/. The
938 Makefiles and configure script have been modified so that
939 mts/generic is no longer built.
941 Mon Dec 11 22:08:07 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
943 * When Shantonu made the new libmts.a, he swapped $(MTSLIB) and
944 libmh.a in sbr/Makefile.in so that libmh.a comes first, but this
945 causes the build to fail on Solaris, because libmts.a has to get
946 ruserpass() out of libmh.a. Swapping them back to the way Ken
947 Hornstein's patch (which I applied on Jul 20) put them, with
948 libmh.a correctly coming second. If there are times when libmts.a
949 needs to come second, then it would appear there's a circular
950 dependency and someone (Shantonu?) did an mts merge incorrectly.
952 Fri Sep 8 01:36:23 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
954 * Took out bad time textual time zones like BST and JST.
955 I found them online somewhere, but am not sure if they're
958 Fri Sep 8 00:36:48 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
960 * Moved zotnet/mts to mts/generic. This code reorganization
961 makes the entire zotnet tree deprecated -- bboards is unneeded,
962 mf was was moved to sbr, tws was rewritten and moved to sbr, and
965 * Created a new static library called libmts.a used during
966 compilation which includes the generic mts code and the
967 smtp/sendmail code. This supercedes the functionality of the
968 old libsmtp.a and the remains of libzot.a.
970 * Updated header includes to reference the new location of mts.h
971 in mts/generic/mts.h. Also, update the configure and top-level
972 Makefile not to descend into zotnet. Also, they don't descend
973 into mts/mmdf and mts/sendmail (the sendmail code has been
974 merged into the smtp code).
976 * Added #include <h/nmh.h> to h/md5.h, since my compile was
977 complaining about implicitly-declared memcpy and memset, which
978 appear to be in strings.h. In any event, nmh.h should take care
981 * When doing a "make nmhdist", notice that the generated
982 snapshot does not include zotnet of the mts directories as noted
983 above. Since they are no longer compiled, and I don't see any
984 obvious code path to get to them, end-users should probably
985 not need them. If you think otherwise, turn Makefile generation
986 back on in configure.in and turn on recursion into those dirs
987 in the appropriate Makefile.in
989 Wed Sep 6 22:40:03 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
991 * Tracked down the problem in the new dtimep where time
992 zones were being radically misreported. It was because the
993 parser knew about military time zones (such as M or E) but in
994 some cases did not know about the textual representation of
995 some zones (like MET). When it encountered one of these, the
996 date parser misread MET as the military time zone T (well, first
997 zone M, then E, and finally T). I took military zones out, and
998 things seem much better. Also, the default behavior of parsing
999 time zones appears to default to GMT in the absence of better
1000 info, which is less bogus than assuming the mail came from the
1001 current time zone, which was the behavior in 1.04.
1003 Thu Aug 10 13:22:13 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1005 * Decided that limiting the message number columns to 3 on my
1006 scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD (to try to regain space taken by
1007 extra date info) was ill-conceived. It's not that tough to get
1008 past 999 messages, though I imagine it's rather rare to exceed
1009 9999. Changed these to 4. Also put the "replied / encrypted"
1010 column back in YYYYMMDD -- I've never seen it show anything but a
1011 space, but that space is useful if you use scan, grep, and awk
1012 (with the default field separator) to grab message numbers (I know
1013 -- pick should really be used for these purposes...).
1015 Mon Aug 7 20:11:09 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1017 * Modify umask set by mhshow to enable user execute bit, so that
1018 viewers that create temporary directories (e.g., lynx) will be
1019 able to access them.
1021 Thu Aug 03 17:14:08 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1023 * TODO: Allow multiple simultaneous differing contexts, probably
1024 each tied to a parent (terminal) process.
1026 Tue Aug 1 10:48:05 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
1028 * Makefile install rules should not look for generated files in
1029 the source tree -- this will happen to work when configuring and
1030 building inside the source tree but will fail when using an
1031 external build tree. Fixed etc/Makefile.in.
1033 Mon Jul 24 16:20:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1035 * When Shantonu wrote the new, more portable dtimep.lex, he left
1036 out the #ifdef DSTXXX stuff for some reason. Not a good idea, as
1037 that code is required for proper printing of numeric-offset
1038 timezones that have daylight saving time. Without that code,
1039 -0700 during DST gets printed as MST instead of PDT.
1041 * Renamed DSTXXX as ADJUST_NUMERIC_ONLY_TZ_OFFSETS_WRT_DST and
1042 added an explanatory comment by its #definition.
1044 * Updated README.developers with the fact that zotnet/tws is going away.
1046 Thu Jul 20 20:30:52 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1048 * Moved Kimmo's new "--with-hash-backup" to be output with the
1049 rest of the --with options in the configure --help output. Also,
1050 people did not preserve my alphabetization of the --with options
1051 when they added new ones. Re-alphabetized.
1053 * One more pass at README.developers now that it's clear that my
1054 previously-suggested one-line autoconf-file commit can cause
1055 unnecessary local makes and an out-of-sync stamp-h.in file, but
1056 would not cause problems for other people using the CVS files.
1058 * Ken Hornstein's SASL patch was not integrated properly with
1059 Ruud's new merged mts/sendmail code. Kimmo has since fixed nmh so
1060 it compiles, but according to Ken, the SASL stuff still does not
1061 work. Integrating a patch from him for this.
1063 * Last pass at README.developers -- Kimmo's 5-step commit was
1064 overkill. You only need 3 steps, since configure.in is the only
1065 autoconf file with the RCS $Id keyword.
1067 * Applied Kurt J. Lidl <lidl@eng.us.uu.net>'s $MAILHOST patch:
1069 I have a small patch that would be nice to be included --
1070 basically, it allows the usage of the "MAILHOST" environment
1071 variable, without having to have HESIOD turned on. I need
1072 this functionality for my environment, where we have identical
1073 /usr/local on all my machines (so I cannot just hardcode into
1074 the mts.conf file), and I have multiple POP mail servers for
1077 Modified inc.man to reflect that along with "pophost:" and -host,
1078 $MAILHOST can now activate POP mail inclusion as well.
1080 * Fixed warnings from diff on first-time install of nmh. Also
1081 added 'echo's clarifying the etc file installation activities.
1083 Tue Jul 18 19:36:59 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
1085 * Added the answer to Dan's question in README.developers.
1087 Mon Jul 17 19:10:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1089 * Clarified and made some corrections to Kimmo's README.developers
1090 changes (BTW, if anyone can explain why the RCS Ids are able to cause
1091 problems with the dependencies, please fill in the explanation --
1092 I never encountered a problem with the old single-commit method).
1094 Sat Jul 15 23:13:49 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
1096 * Add configure option --with-hash-backup so the backup prefix can
1097 be easily changed from "," to "#".
1099 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that it works with any make.
1101 * Use mkstemp in sbr/lock_file.c.
1103 * Commits of autoconf-related files apparently can't all be done
1104 in one shot due to RCS Ids changing when committing -- updated
1107 Tue Jul 11 14:18:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1109 * Clarified post.man and send.man for those not completely up on
1110 SASL terminology. "SASL encryption layers are not supported for
1111 SMTP" means that encryption is supported for the authentication
1112 but not for the subsequent data stream.
1114 Sat Jul 8 01:36:19 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
1116 * Applied Ken Hornstein <kenh@cmf.nrl.navy.mil>'s patches
1117 implementing SASL support for POP3 and SMTP. If nmh is compiled
1118 with SASL support, using the -sasl switch on the inc, msgchk,
1119 post, and send commands will enable authentication encryption for
1120 SMTP, and both authentication and data stream encryption for POP3.
1122 Sat Jun 10 18:37:59 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1124 * Merged mts/sendmail functionality into mts/smtp; switching between
1125 smtp and sendmail delivery method is now controlled by mts.conf.
1127 * If tsort cannot deal with loops, in addition to defining tsort as
1128 cat, also define lorder as echo.
1130 * Removed uip/popi.c from list of sources.
1132 Thu Jun 08 19:36:57 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1134 * New dtimep.lex didn't parse day names properly. Fixed. Also
1135 clarified ambiguous comments preceding day_map[] array (from old
1136 dtimep.lex) that probably led to the erroneous cp++ being added.
1138 Wed Jun 7 20:52:33 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1140 * Added one more mkstemp invocation to uip/spost.c (which was in a
1143 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to clean up permissions handling
1144 and error handling in uip/inc.c.
1146 Mon Jun 5 22:10:07 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1148 * Use cat instead of tsort if tsort cannot deal with loops in its
1149 input (which is the case for tsort from GNU textutils).
1151 Mon Jun 5 21:14:36 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1153 * If lockfile is present, and its dotlockfile program is setgid,
1154 inc does not need to be setgid.
1156 Sun Jun 4 21:35:40 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1158 * Added autoconf test for Miquel van Smoorenburg's liblockfile
1159 library, as found on Debian systems.
1161 * Added liblockfile support to sbr/lock_file.c.
1163 Wed May 31 7:19:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1165 * Fixed up dtimep.lex a bit. Added back memory options for AIX to
1166 increase available memory. Took out %option noyywrap, which
1167 wasn't understood by AT&T lex, as well as the -i
1168 case-insensitivity flag.
1170 Wed May 31 07:40:45 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1172 * Added a lint target to the Makefiles and a check in autoconf
1173 to determine whether lint or lclint exists on the system.
1175 Fri May 30 19:21:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1177 * etc/Makefile.in was incorrectly installing mts.conf.in and
1178 sendfiles.in -- fixed. Generated sendfiles script was not a
1179 dependency of the `all' target, and was incorrectly included in
1180 the distribution. Changed the suffix for the backed-up previous
1181 versions of the etc files from the ambiguous .old to .prev. Added
1182 call to diff -- only keep the .prev files around if different from
1183 the newly-installed versions (intentionally didn't redirect output
1184 to /dev/null so you'll notice when your changed versions are
1185 getting moved aside).
1187 * INSTALL never documented the etc/*.old thing. Documented the
1188 new etc/*.prev thing (including a note to watch for diff output).
1190 * Applied Alec Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu>'s dropsbr.c patch:
1192 In the map_write routine, a call is made to map_open and this
1193 call is supposed to set the "clear" variable to 0 or 1,
1194 depending on whether the map file is empty or not. In
1195 mh6.8.3, this worked because map_open would set "clear" by
1196 calling the mbx_Xopen routine. In nmh, the code for mbx_Xopen
1197 was merged into mbx_open, but the interface for mbx_open
1198 doesn't support the clear variable, so that functionality was
1199 lost. The map_open interface still contains "int *clear" in
1200 the prototype, but never sets it.
1202 My patch eliminates "clear" from the map_open interface (I
1203 checked to make sure that map_write is the only client of
1204 map_open). Furthermore, my patch also sets the "clear"
1205 variable properly at the beginning of map_write by calling
1206 fstat(). This eliminates the bug in that the value of "clear"
1207 being used later in the routine was just stack garbage.
1209 Having a bad value of clear causes this next bug to be
1210 triggered: The fp file pointer was being opened with fdopen,
1211 but in two of the three switch cases it wasn't being closed.
1212 In certain cases, this was causing packf to run out of file
1213 descriptors if you attempted to pack a large folder.
1215 Mon May 29 7:48:15 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1217 * Moved the date parsing routines from zotnet/tws to sbr/ (and
1218 tws.h to h/). Updated all source files to reflect to new location
1221 * Rewrote dparsetime (in dtimep.lex -> dtimep.c) to replace the
1222 old zotnet/tws/dtimep.c, dtimep.lex, lexstring.c, lexedit.c, and
1223 dtimep.c-lexed. It should now work with flex (although untested
1224 with lex), and requires no sed-ing. For now, I have the lexed
1225 version in the distribution, so that end-users don't need to worry
1226 about running it through flex/lex. I have not added back support
1227 for guessing the time zone when it's not specified.
1229 Sun May 28 17:44:15 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1231 * Added autoconf check for getutent().
1233 * Changed uip/rcvtty.c and uip/slocal.c to use getutent() and
1234 friends. Since I can only check on Linux, please check if
1235 this works on other systems.
1237 Sun May 28 14:58:49 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1239 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to uip/scansbr.c for more
1240 checks for write failures.
1242 * Unlink temporary file properly in uip/rcvtty.c.
1244 * Moved viamail from bindir to libdir.
1246 * Changed sendfiles into sendfiles.in, so that path to viamail
1249 * Added gzip support to sendfiles.
1251 * Added References header to replcomps and replgroupcomps.
1253 Sun May 28 14:39:31 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1255 * Fixed m_getfld bug which caused segmentation faults when
1256 incorporating messages which ended in multiple linefeeds crossing
1259 Fri May 26 13:21:59 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1261 * msh has been unable to show MIME messages ever since 1.0. Alec
1262 Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu> tracked down the problem to the
1263 -show flag being passed to mhshow. mhshow is equivalent to the
1264 old mhn -show, so we don't need the -show anymore. Removed it.
1266 Fri May 12 02:51:21 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1268 * zotnet/bboards is not longer built by default. Goal is to move
1269 the assorted functions in zotnet into sbr or some more logical
1272 * Moved zotnet/mf to sbr, and changed mf.h references accordingly,
1273 as well as Makefiles.
1275 Thu May 11 02:21:34 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1277 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that both SRCS and OBJS aren't
1278 seperately and redundantly defined, but so that OBJS is a
1279 pattern-substituted version of SRCS with suffix .c -> .o. This
1280 should make maintainability easier.
1282 * Added section to MACHINES indicating what platforms nmh is known
1283 to compile and work on, just to give users peace of mind, or
1284 something. This is by no means complete or exhaustive, so add
1285 whatever you know works.
1287 Tue May 09 20:38:04 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1289 * Alphabetized Shantonu's $pop_kinds output on configure's "pop is
1290 enabled" line. If POP3 is the only kind of POP enabled, say so,
1291 rather than just saying "yes" (which is ambiguous).
1293 * Fixed four warnings in Shantonu's new getpass.c. Needed to
1294 #include <stdlib.h> for calloc(), <unistd.h> for ttyname(), and
1295 "h/mh.h" for adios(). Also changed ch from char to int to get rid
1296 of "comparison is always 1 due to limited range of data type" on EOF.
1298 * Added steps to README.developers saying to change the version
1299 number to X.Y.Z+dev. Did a little rearranging and changed the FTP
1300 dir from /home/ftp to /var/ftp to reflect Doug's new machine.
1302 * Changed configure.in to use gcc -Wall even without
1303 --enable-debug, to prevent developers compiling optimized from
1304 introducing warnings, and to give end-users a warm, fuzzy feeling
1305 as they (hopefully) see no warnings come out (except perhaps on
1306 the lex output file) even with -Wall.
1308 * Renamed getpass() to nmh_getpass() since the prototype for
1309 getpass() varies from OS to OS, and we want to _always_ use our
1310 version of the function. Fixed all the callers to use
1311 nmh_getpass() and added it to prototypes.h. Semi-arbitrarily
1312 upped MAX_PASSWORD_LEN from 128 to 256. buf was being calloc()'d
1313 and the memory leaked -- should have just been declared as static
1314 char array. Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the
1315 copyright message, as this version has been changed significantly
1316 from the BSD version.
1318 * Added "nmh-local functions to use in preference to OS versions"
1319 section to README.developers (currently just says to use
1320 nmh_getpass() instead of system getpass()).
1322 * Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the copyright message
1323 in ruserpass.c also.
1325 * Added mts.conf.5 page per Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s
1328 This happens on solaris:
1331 windex entry incorrect: mts.conf(5) not found.
1332 No manual entry for mts.conf.
1336 % echo ".so man5/mh-tailor.5" > mts.conf.5
1338 done in the man5 directory. We need to add 'mts.conf.5' as a
1339 reference sourcing mh-tailor.5.
1341 Mon May 08 23:51:55 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1343 * Doug informed me that the way I had restored the "lost" version
1344 histories was wrong, because `cvs checkout's of old versions of
1345 nmh wouldn't work properly. It occurs to me that this could be
1346 fixed by simply deleting those tags in the new-location *,v files,
1347 but oh well. I'm putting everything back to the way Doug
1348 originally had it. To get the old version history for a file that
1349 used to be in the top directory, you'll need to "blindly" do a
1350 `cvs log' there (even though you won't have a local copy of the
1351 file in that directory). `cvs diff' will no longer be able to
1352 diff pre-move versions vs. post-move versions -- you'll have to do
1353 a lot of manual gyrations with `cvs checkout' and then use `diff'.
1355 * I had alphabetized the --configure options in the --help output
1356 awhile back, but Shantonu added --enable-apop just under
1357 --enable-pop. Put it in alphabetical order and clarified what
1358 --enable-apop does vs. --enable-pop and --with-krb4. Also changed
1359 --with-mts help line from "mail transport agent" to "mail
1360 transport agent/service" so the 's' in "mts" doesn't seem to come
1363 * Added two steps to "releasing nmh" in README.developers. After
1364 making the tarball, it's a good idea to diff the tree vs. the CVS
1365 tree to make sure no files got left out, and then to chown the
1366 files so that they're owned by root, preventing a Trojaning attack
1367 by a malicious remote user with a UID matching yours.
1369 * Changed DIFFERENCES to say that RPOP is not currently supported
1370 rather than implying it by saying that APOP, KPOP, and POP[3] are.
1372 Sun May 07 18:16:43 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1374 * Imported NetBSD version of getpass() and made extensive
1375 revisions for compatibility with programs that pipe the password
1376 to stdin, such as exmh.
1378 * Removed tests for system ruserpass() which sometimes gave
1379 phantom positive results. Also, bext to use internal functions if
1380 we ever want to change .netrc format to something else, or access
1383 Sat May 06 08:28:09 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1385 * Restored lost version histories for those moved files by doing a
1386 manual `mv' in the CVSROOT on mhost. CVS badly needs a `cvs mv'
1387 command so that you can move files (without having physical access
1388 to the CVSROOT) without losing versioning. Put MACHINES back at
1389 the top level as it needs to be read before building. Fixed DIST
1390 variable in {.,docs}/Makefile.in to reflect that and to add
1391 missing entry for "INSTALL" file.
1393 Sat May 06 13:13:07 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1395 * Re-cleaned up nmh documentation (by moving things to docs
1396 subdir) and modified Makefile & configure.in to handle the change.
1398 Mon Apr 17 21:28:40 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1400 * Scott Blachowicz pointed out that the configure --help output
1401 for --enable-masquerade was misleading. Clarified.
1403 Mon Apr 17 19:01:00 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1405 * APOP support can be compiled in to inc and msgchk using
1408 * To access an APOP host, specify -apop on the command line
1409 along with any -host or -user option.
1411 Fri Apr 14 23:10:44 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1413 * Upped the version number to 1.0.4+dev until the next nmh release.
1415 * Added a "releasing nmh" section to README.developers, while the
1416 process was fresh in my mind.
1418 Fri Apr 14 18:21:34 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1420 * Added new files README.developers, ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6, and
1421 ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html to DIST target in Makefile.in.
1423 * Released nmh-1.0.4.
1425 Tue Apr 11 21:37:03 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1427 * Applied Brian Campbell <bacam@tardis.ed.ac.uk>'s mhn.defaults.sh
1430 It appears that there shouldn't be quotes around the %s in the
1431 iso-8859-1 charset entry; xterm passes the remaining arguments
1432 to the program, quoting them means that xterm thinks they're
1433 part of the program's name.
1435 This %s isn't the same as the "Insert content subtype" one from
1436 mhshow-show-* -- it doesn't come from MIME headers and is safe not
1439 Sun Apr 09 13:03:59 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1441 * added check in fmt_compile() to handle a single-character
1442 format string. fmt_compile() depends on having an array of
1443 format characters with an empty item at the end. A
1444 single-character format would cause programs using this
1445 function to segfault because the algorithm used to decide on
1446 the length of the array mistakenly created a single-item array
1447 when the format string was one character. This eventually
1448 caused problems when the program attempted to test item+1
1451 Thu Apr 06 21:53:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1453 * Richard Coleman threw out a lot of old MH-specific files in nmh.
1454 Much of the stuff, indeed, is not worth saving, but there are
1455 nuggets that are very worthwhile, and should probably be added
1456 back in. Most important, IMHO, are the MH change logs, as they
1457 can help answer questions like "Why is this code like this?" or
1458 "How long has this been broken?" or "What was this ever used for?"
1460 I've added a new file to the nmh tree called
1461 ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6. It's cobbled together from the
1462 mh-6.8.4/papers/mh*/MHCHANGES files. I've re-ordered the entries
1463 to go from newest at the top to oldest at the bottom to match the
1464 ChangeLog convention. Unfortunately there are no change logs for
1465 versions of MH prior to 3 in the MH tar files available at
1466 <ftp://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/mh>. Also, it appears to me that there
1467 are MH-6.6 changes that aren't documented in the logs.
1469 I've also added ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html. This is
1470 based on mh-6.8.4/papers/changes/mh-changes.ms. The nroff format
1471 and its "catman"-type output are a pain to deal with, but I was
1472 loath to throw away the formatting, so I converted the file to
1473 HTML. The only actual markup in the body are the "<B>" and "<U>"
1474 tags, and "<" and ">" instead of '<' and '>', so it's quite
1475 doable to view the file in plain ASCII mode as well. Note that
1476 some of the changes this file documents as having been made in
1477 MH-6.8.4 may not be present in nmh -- Richard started with 6.8.3
1478 and later put in certain 6.8.4 stuff.
1480 Wed Apr 05 21:09:28 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1482 * Applied Eric Schnoebelen <eric@cirr.com>'s mhshowsbr.c patch
1483 fixing apparent bugs in Dan Winship's new security quoting code:
1485 Since upgrading, I've been getting the following errors
1486 while attempting to process some MIME messages:
1488 (1) Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
1493 (2) line 1/10 (END)Segmentation fault (core dumped)
1495 (2) appears to be due to the testing of an unset pointer in
1496 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux(). (1) appears to be caused by
1497 mis-quoting a filename being handed to the shell in
1498 mhshowsbr.c:show_content_aux().
1500 Resolving the pointer reference issue in
1501 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux() turned up a similar mis-quoting
1502 problem in the routine.
1504 Tue Mar 28 16:17:39 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1506 * Applied Todd.Miller@courtesan.com's patch to dropsbr.c to
1507 prevent core dumping on packf. Here's the note from his message:
1509 Since sizeof(buffer) == sizeof(tmpbuffer) packf will dump
1510 core on a file w/o a From line with a line >= BUFSIZ.
1511 I noticed this because I had a junk file in my mail
1514 Fri Mar 17 11:59:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1516 * wesley.craig@umich.edu did not document his previous KPOP patch,
1517 so I did so, and asked him to check what I wrote. Unfortunately
1518 he didn't notice my misunderstanding of his patch. I wrote that
1519 if you #define POPSERVICE "kpop", inc and msgchk will use KPOP
1520 exclusively, but if you leave it as "pop3", you can use Wesley's
1521 new -kpop switch on a given invocation. Instead, however, -kpop
1522 turned out to be necessary on every invocation, and a KPOP user
1523 complained. Applied Wesley's new patch, which makes things work
1524 like I thought his original patch did. After that, did one more
1525 clarifying pass to the documentation in inc.man and msgchk.man.
1527 Wed Mar 15 18:45:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1529 * When I fixed the long-standing makedir() bugs in January, I had
1530 the code call strtoul(..., 0), which I believed to be safe as all
1531 modes specified as ASCII constants in the nmh code started with a
1532 leading zero (signifying octal), which I did as it would work if
1533 internal constants were ever changed to hex. Unfortunately I was
1534 unaware of the "Folder-Protect:" .mh_profile entry, which
1535 mh-profile.man documents as an octal-only constant, with no
1536 leading zero required. I've changed the strtoul() call to an
1537 atooi() call and removed the misleading leading zeroes on the
1538 ASCII octal constants in the code and man pages. Also changed the
1539 "Folder-Protect:" example in the man page to something more
1540 interesting than a duplication of the default.
1542 * When I added my --enable-masquerade option, you'll note that I
1543 didn't make it --enable-nmh-masquerade. I find the --enable-nmh-*
1544 options too wordy and I'm not sure why Richard went that route.
1545 I've renamed them to just --enable-*, but the old versions will
1546 still work as well (they just aren't advertised).
1548 * Added a line to the "nmh configuration" output saying whether
1551 * Added a new README.developers file. From the file:
1553 This file is intended to provide a few tips for anyone doing
1554 development on nmh. Developers who learn things "the hard
1555 way" about the nmh codebase (as opposed to local info best
1556 encoded in a comment) are encouraged to share their wisdom
1559 Currently the topics are "autoconf files" and "directory structure".
1561 Tue Mar 14 12:41:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1563 * Applied, after some finessing,
1564 Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s --with-smtpservers patch:
1566 Here's a patch that allows you to add
1568 --with-smtpservers=<some.host.name>
1570 to the ./configure command line to set the "servers: " line in
1571 etc/mts.conf. Around here, we use "mailhost" so that all
1572 machines in the current domain just talk to a central machine
1573 and nothing else runs an MTA. Now, I can use
1575 --with-smtpservers=mailhost
1577 instead of having to remember to fix this by hand (and often
1578 forgetting to do so!).
1580 * Inspired by Simon's patch, added an --enable-masquerade option
1581 to configure. It will set the "masquerade:" line of mts.conf.
1582 You may specify a subset of the three types of masquerading, like
1583 --enable-masquerade="draft_from mmailid", or leave off explicit
1584 arguments to enable all three types.
1586 * Alphabetized the --enable and --with options in configure.in and
1587 INSTALL and added documentation of the two new options to the latter.
1589 * Added new dependency for mts.conf: Makefile. If this isn't
1590 done, then when you reconfigure nmh with new values for
1591 --enable-masquerade or --with-smtpservers, you'll fail to get an
1592 updated copy of mts.conf.
1594 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtimep.lex patch:
1596 It seems that some MUA's didn't handle y2k very well - ELM
1597 seems to be one of them, and Ultrix's DXmail (based on MH!).
1598 I've got a few emails this month that look like:
1600 575 Jan 00 Xxxxxx Xxxx 3603 ...
1602 22+ Jan 00 Xxx Xxxxx 1771 ...
1604 The first has "15 Jan 100" as the date and the second has
1605 "19 Jan 00" as the date. The following works around this so
1606 that scan, show, sortm, etc work ok.
1608 I put Simon's patch under the control of a new #define called
1609 FIX_NON_Y2K_COMPLIANT_MUA_DATES. There's some commentary in
1610 acconfig.h about when you might not want to #define it.
1612 * Created new dtimep.c-lexed with Simon's change using dtimep.lex
1613 lexed on Solaris 2.6. Added missing dependency in
1614 zotnet/tws/Makefile.in for dtimep.c: dtimep.c-lexed.
1616 * Added scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD format files.
1618 Mon Mar 13 21:32:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1620 * Applied Sullivan N. Beck <sbeck@cise.ufl.edu>'s mhshow-suffix patch:
1622 With the patch below, you can add lines like:
1624 mhshow-suffix-application/msword: .doc
1625 mhshow-suffix-application/PostScript: .ps
1627 to the mhn.defaults file to append the given suffix to a
1628 scratch file. This allows applications which require a
1629 certain suffix to run properly.
1631 * Removed -force_html from lynx entry in mhn.defaults.sh (I
1632 believe older versions of lynx lack that option) and added
1633 "mhshow-suffix-text/html: .html".
1635 * Modified username_extension masquerading to only use the
1636 extended address on generated [Resent-]From: lines and SMTP
1637 envelope From:. With Neil's original implementation, nmh's global
1638 idea of the username was changed, which would result in inc lying
1639 and saying you had no new mail because it was looking for a
1640 mailbox called, for instance, "dan-nmh" (where username was "dan"
1641 and $USERNAME_EXTENSION was "-nmh").
1643 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtime.c patch:
1645 There's a wrap-around problem that affects the implementation
1646 of Zeller's congruence in dtime.c. This causes the day-of-week
1647 calculations to fail for dates after Feb 29, 2000 (probably up
1648 until some year far in the future).
1650 Mon Mar 06 12:20:20 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1652 * Applied Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s msh.c patch:
1654 I finally tracked down the problem in msh that was causing
1655 errors whenever I tried to examine a 'mmdf' style mailbox.
1657 It turns out that not enough memory was being allocated with
1658 calloc(), causing memory pointers to be overwritten and
1661 Fri Mar 03 16:07:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1663 * Changed the new "plussed_user" option to mts.conf's
1664 "masquerade:" to "username_extension" after getting feedback from
1665 qmail users, who use '-' as a separator rather than '+'. Removed
1666 checking of $USERPLUS variable. Now check $USERNAME_EXTENSION,
1667 which needs to include the appropriate separator for your MTA
1668 ('-', '+', or whatever) as its first character.
1670 Thu Mar 02 23:04:30 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1672 * Added a new "boolean" type to mh.h and TRUE and FALSE constants.
1674 * Added a note to DIFFERENCES stating that it's out-of-date
1675 (Richard was the last one to update it) and that we should
1676 consider only documenting incompatibilities with MH there.
1678 * Implemented (and documented) a third kind of username
1679 masquerading: "plussed user" masquerading. This one was suggested
1680 by Neil Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>. It's based on sendmail's
1681 "plussed user" feature, where mail sent to <user>+<string> will be
1682 delivered to <user>. When it's enabled, it's controlled by the
1683 $USERPLUS environment variable. How is it enabled? Well, that
1686 * Renamed the "mmailid:" setting in mts.conf to "masquerade:", and
1687 changed it so that rather than being a boolean, it can be set to
1688 any combination of the three values "draft_from", "mmailid", and
1689 "plussed_user". Thus it is now possible to enable the three types
1690 of masquerading individually.
1692 * Fixed a bug with "mmailid" masquerading (dating back to MH?)
1693 where if it was turned on, ','s would no longer be considered
1694 GECOS field delimiters.
1696 Wed Mar 01 23:30:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1698 * Changed the GECOS-field '&' translation behavior to be
1699 controlled by the BSD42 #define rather than GCOS_HACK, since it's
1700 apparently always appropriate on OSes where BSD42 is #defined, and
1701 never appropriate on any other OSes. Thanks to Kimmo Suominen for
1702 responding to my "What is this code here for?" comment in mts.c
1703 and explaining the feature.
1705 Mon Feb 28 21:50:29 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1707 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3+dev (ideally this should be
1708 done by whoever makes a release tar file, immediately after doing
1711 * Applied Paul Fox <pgf-spam@foxharp.boston.ma.us>'s scansbr.c
1712 patch, posted to comp.mail.mh, which he says prevents loss of mail
1713 when inc'ing into a full filesystem.
1715 * Changed "echo > stamp-h.in" in Makefile.in to "date > stamp-h.in"
1716 so that stamp-h.in will be different each time configure.in and
1717 related files are changed, making it easier to check it in (which
1718 is necessary to prevent unnecessary autoconf calls).
1720 * My declaration of initgroups() in slocal.c to eliminate the "no
1721 prototype" warning wasn't portable (FreeBSD 3.[23] choked). Now
1722 use AC_EGREP_HEADER to see where initgroups() is declared, if
1725 Sun Feb 20 12:17:15 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1727 * Fix security hole in mhshowsbr.c which allowed untrusted shell
1728 code to be executed.
1730 * Released nmh 1.0.3.
1732 Thu Feb 10 10:54:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1734 * Oops. %-escapes on mhstore lines in mhn.defaults.sh should not
1735 be surrounded by single quotes, as a shell is not spawned when
1736 just saving files, and the filenames will end up with literal
1737 quotes embedded in them.
1739 Fri Feb 04 12:29:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1741 * Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
1742 got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
1743 the -help output. One theory is that they were making reference
1744 to the fact that clearly you know about the -help option since
1745 you're currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea
1746 to overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
1747 supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
1750 The other theory is that because you can say something like
1751 "mhstore -" and get "mhstore: - ambiguous. It matches" followed
1752 by the same list of switches you get with -help, they were saying
1753 you can "sorta" abbreviate "-help" as "-". You don't get the
1754 "Usage:" string, though, so it's not really the same thing.
1756 Thu Feb 03 17:52:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1758 * Applied wesley.craig@umich.edu's KPOP patches. According to him:
1760 The following patch fixes a problem with requesting a
1761 service key for a machine that has multiple 'A' records. It
1762 also makes "-kpop" a command line option, for users who
1763 would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".
1765 Did no testing of the new features, as I don't have access to a
1768 * Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
1770 * Modified INSTALL and config.h.in to reflect the new -kpop feature.
1772 Fri Jan 28 17:39:24 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1774 * All %-escapes in mhn.defaults that actually expand to something
1775 should be surrounded by single quotes. Added quotes to the ones
1776 in mhn.defaults.sh that were missing them.
1778 * Added check for lynx to write mhshow-show-text/html line in
1781 Thu Jan 27 12:22:25 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1783 * makedir() had multiple bugs dating back to MH. An octal
1784 constant was apparently being interpreted as decimal, resulting in
1785 directories with no user read or execute permissions, making
1786 nested directory creation fail. And there wasn't even an
1787 _attempt_ to set desired permissions (e.g. from "Folder-Protect:"
1788 in .mh_profile) on the outer directories of a nested directory.
1790 * A second `make install' would always fail because the check for
1791 whether mh_profile.5 existed was written incorrectly.
1793 Wed Jan 26 02:22:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1795 * Added documentation on both types of masquerading to post's man
1798 Tue Jan 25 22:58:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1800 * Doug's portability fix of my setgid inc autodetection had a
1801 caching bug -- if you re-ran configure, uip/Makefile would be
1802 corrupted, and installation would bomb out on OSes where inc needs
1805 * Implemented a new kind of email address masquerading. Usually,
1806 when a user writes a custom "From:" header in a draft, nmh uses it
1807 rather than generating one. However, the user's true address is
1808 used in the SMTP envelope "From:" and is revealed in the "Sender:"
1809 header. Now, when mmailid is set to non-zero, the envelope
1810 "From:" uses the address specified in the draft "From:" header,
1811 and there is no "Sender:" header. This is useful when sending on
1812 behalf of a remote POP3 account or when remote mail robots
1813 incorrectly use the envelope "From:" in preference to the body
1814 "From:". This processing has only been implemented for post, not
1815 for the undocumented spost (which was already missing some "From:"
1816 processing that post has).
1818 Mon Jan 24 22:26:06 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1820 * Got rid of the rest of the gcc -Wall warnings that I didn't have
1821 time for on 1999-07-15 (and, it would seem, some new ones people
1822 introduced since then). The primary ones were the warnings that
1823 default prototypes were being used for [v]snprintf() and
1824 str[n]casecmp(). As of right now, there are _no_ compilation
1825 warnings except on dtimep.c-lexed (at least under AIX 4.1.5 and
1828 Sun Jan 2 23:42:18 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1830 * Move mhtest from bindir to libdir.
1832 * Move sendfiles from libdir to bindir.
1834 * Updated sendfiles manpage to reflect this change.
1836 * Added documentation for -build and -file switches to repl and
1837 forw manpages (patch from Peter Maydell).
1839 * Fixed interaction between specifying -cc in profile and -group on
1842 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1844 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
1845 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
1846 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
1849 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1851 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
1852 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
1853 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
1854 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
1855 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
1856 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).
1858 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1860 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
1862 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1864 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
1865 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
1866 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
1867 caught again. This works for now.
1869 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
1871 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1873 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
1874 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
1876 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1878 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
1879 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
1881 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
1883 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
1885 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1887 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
1888 changes. Both need more cleanup.
1890 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1892 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
1893 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
1894 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
1895 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
1896 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
1899 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1901 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
1902 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
1903 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
1905 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
1906 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
1909 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1911 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
1912 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
1913 to a directory on another device with more free space.
1915 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1917 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
1918 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
1920 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1922 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
1925 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
1926 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
1928 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
1929 macros, regardless of platform.
1931 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
1932 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1934 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
1935 with x-conversions=gzip.
1937 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1939 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
1942 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
1943 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
1944 implicit definition of ioctl().
1946 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
1947 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
1948 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
1949 want to mess with them.
1951 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1953 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
1954 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
1956 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
1957 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
1959 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
1960 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
1961 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
1963 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
1964 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
1965 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
1967 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
1968 function initgroups.
1970 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
1973 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
1974 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
1977 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
1978 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
1981 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
1982 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
1986 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1988 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
1989 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
1990 preventing compilation on at least linux.
1992 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
1993 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
1995 Thu Sep 09 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1997 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
1999 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
2000 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
2001 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
2002 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
2004 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
2005 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
2007 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
2009 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
2011 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
2013 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
2014 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
2016 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
2018 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
2019 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
2021 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
2022 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
2023 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
2024 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
2026 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
2027 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
2029 Sat Jun 09 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2031 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
2032 substitute it for mktemp if available.
2034 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2036 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
2037 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
2040 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
2042 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
2044 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
2046 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
2047 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
2049 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
2050 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
2051 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
2053 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
2054 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
2055 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
2057 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
2058 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
2059 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
2061 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
2062 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
2065 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
2066 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
2068 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
2069 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
2071 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
2072 <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
2074 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
2075 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
2076 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
2078 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
2079 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
2081 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
2082 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
2083 <elleron@servtech.com>.
2085 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
2086 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
2089 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
2090 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
2092 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
2093 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
2094 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
2095 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
2097 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
2098 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
2100 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2104 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
2105 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
2106 would not be changed.
2108 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
2109 one from the Apache web server.
2111 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
2112 (this should have been done a long time ago).
2114 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
2115 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
2116 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
2118 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
2120 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
2122 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
2123 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
2126 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
2127 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
2128 removes a bad race condition.
2130 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
2133 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
2134 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
2135 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
2137 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
2138 sequence information.
2140 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
2141 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
2143 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
2146 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
2149 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
2151 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
2152 interpret 034 as octal.
2154 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
2156 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
2157 mhstore, and mhbuild.
2159 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
2160 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
2162 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
2163 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
2165 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
2166 in the c_cefile structure when building.
2168 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
2169 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
2171 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
2172 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
2173 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
2175 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
2176 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
2177 and mhshow. Updated man pages
2179 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
2181 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
2183 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
2184 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
2187 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
2189 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
2190 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
2192 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
2193 header field information.
2195 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
2196 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
2198 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
2199 values when parsing a content.
2201 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
2202 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
2204 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
2205 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
2207 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
2208 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
2210 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
2211 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
2213 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
2215 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
2217 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
2219 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
2221 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
2222 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
2225 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
2226 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
2228 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
2229 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
2230 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
2231 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
2232 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
2233 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
2236 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
2238 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
2239 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
2240 buffer length checks for this parameter.
2242 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
2243 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
2245 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
2247 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
2248 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
2249 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
2250 of the limits on the length of command lines.
2252 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
2253 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
2256 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
2257 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
2258 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
2259 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
2262 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2264 * Released nmh-0.27.
2266 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
2267 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
2269 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
2270 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
2271 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
2272 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
2275 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
2276 mhbuild returns an error.
2278 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
2279 rename the draft file.
2281 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
2282 use a global variable.
2284 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
2285 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
2287 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
2288 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
2290 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
2291 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
2292 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
2294 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
2295 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
2297 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
2298 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
2301 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
2302 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
2305 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
2306 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
2308 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
2309 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
2310 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
2312 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
2313 to new function output_content_folder.
2315 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
2316 new function output_content_file.
2318 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
2319 to new function parse_format_string.
2321 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
2322 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
2323 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
2324 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
2326 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
2327 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
2328 message/external file from ftp.
2330 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
2331 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
2332 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
2334 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
2335 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
2338 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
2341 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
2342 new file mhstoresbr.c
2344 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
2347 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
2348 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
2350 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
2351 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
2353 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
2354 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
2355 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
2357 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
2359 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
2361 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
2362 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
2365 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
2366 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
2368 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
2371 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
2373 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2375 * Released nmh-0.26.
2377 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
2378 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
2379 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
2380 is still the same (dashstuffing).
2382 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
2383 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
2384 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
2385 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
2386 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
2388 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
2389 But it is not on by default.
2391 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
2392 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
2394 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
2396 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
2398 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
2400 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
2402 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
2403 number of the "cur" message when packing.
2405 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2407 * Released nmh-0.25.
2409 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
2410 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
2411 uses the original name of the library.
2413 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
2414 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
2417 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
2418 list_content and list_debug.
2420 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
2422 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
2423 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.
2425 1998-02-27 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2427 * Released nmh-0.24.
2429 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
2431 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
2432 are given, that order doesn't matter.
2434 * Fix bug in seq_list.c when realloc'ing for
2435 large sequence line.
2437 1998-02-23 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2439 * Released nmh-0.23.
2441 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
2443 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
2444 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan
2445 content, decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary
2446 string). I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
2448 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
2449 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
2452 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
2454 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
2456 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
2458 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
2459 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
2461 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
2462 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.
2464 * Add note to MACHINES file that on Linux, configure
2465 doesn't find the functions sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
2467 * Fix configuration for machines that don't have (or find)
2468 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
2470 1998-02-11 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2472 * Released nmh-0.22.
2474 * Add a configure check for sigsetjmp. Add some conditional
2475 #define's in h/signals.h in case it's not found.
2477 * Added additional notes about -auto switch in mhn man page.
2479 * Added note about MM_CHARSET environment variable to
2480 mh-profile(5) man page.
2482 * Fix signal problem in mhn.c (change setjmp/longjmp to
2483 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp).
2485 1998-02-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2487 * Released nmh-0.22-pre1.
2489 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
2490 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
2492 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
2494 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
2495 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
2496 entry point for parsing MIME files.
2498 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
2499 source message on the standard input.
2501 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
2503 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
2504 rather than -rfc934mode.
2506 * Fix mhbuild, so that Content-Description and RFC-822 comments
2507 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
2510 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
2511 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).
2513 * Restore HP specific code to zotnet/tws/lexstring.c. Apparently
2516 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2518 * Released nmh-0.21.
2520 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
2521 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.
2523 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what transfer
2526 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what character set
2527 to use for text contents.
2529 * Removed old hpux specific code from zotnet/tws/lexstring.c
2531 1998-02-02 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2533 * Released nmh-0.21-pre2.
2535 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
2537 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
2538 header fields as per RFC-2047.
2540 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
2541 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
2542 spaces between encoded word are.
2544 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
2546 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
2547 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
2549 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
2550 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
2551 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
2553 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
2555 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
2556 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
2558 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.
2560 * Added support for %(decode) to fmtdump.c.
2562 * check_charset() now accepts US-ASCII as a subset of any
2563 ISO-8859-X character set.
2565 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
2568 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
2569 permissions, not write permissions.
2571 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
2572 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
2574 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
2577 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2579 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
2581 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
2582 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
2584 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
2585 message contains valid character set.
2587 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
2588 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
2590 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
2591 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
2593 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
2594 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
2595 between an encoded word and normal text.
2597 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
2598 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
2600 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
2601 as a RFC-2047 header field.
2603 * The command install-mh now recognizes the switches -version
2606 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
2607 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
2610 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
2611 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
2613 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
2614 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
2616 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
2618 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2620 * Released nmh-0.20.
2622 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
2624 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.
2626 * Changed the default format file for mhl (mhl.format) to
2627 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
2628 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
2630 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
2631 and the To: line was missing.
2633 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
2635 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2637 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
2639 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
2640 watch the POP transaction.
2642 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
2643 first, and use it if available.
2645 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
2646 first, and use it if available.
2648 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2650 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
2652 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
2653 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
2654 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
2657 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
2658 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
2659 returns the state FLDPLUS.
2661 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
2662 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
2665 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
2667 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
2668 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
2670 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
2672 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
2673 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
2675 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
2676 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
2677 message to which you are replying.
2679 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
2680 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
2681 making group replies.
2683 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
2685 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2687 * Released nmh-0.19.
2689 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
2690 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
2692 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
2693 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
2694 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
2695 to the end of the man page.
2697 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
2698 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
2699 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
2700 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
2701 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
2702 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
2704 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
2707 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
2708 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
2709 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
2711 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
2712 the next available number above the message number you wish
2715 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
2716 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
2718 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
2719 file sbr/seq_print.c
2721 * flist will now update the current folder.
2723 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
2724 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
2725 but now undocumented.
2727 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
2730 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
2731 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
2733 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
2735 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
2736 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
2738 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2740 * Released nmh-0.18.
2742 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
2743 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
2744 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
2746 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
2747 retains the public/private status of sequences.
2749 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
2750 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
2751 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
2752 previous public/private status.
2754 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
2757 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
2760 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
2761 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
2762 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
2764 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
2765 take option to determine whether it should get current
2766 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
2767 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
2769 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
2771 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
2772 wait for stopped processes.
2774 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
2775 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
2777 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2779 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
2781 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
2782 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
2784 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
2785 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
2787 * Change the way that memory for message status is
2788 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
2789 the folder/message structure. This required changing
2790 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
2792 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
2795 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
2798 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
2800 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
2801 the debugging output.
2803 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
2804 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
2806 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2808 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
2810 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
2811 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
2813 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
2815 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
2816 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
2817 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
2818 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
2819 in the given sequence.
2821 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
2822 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
2823 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
2824 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
2825 subdirectories of a given directory.
2827 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
2828 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
2829 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
2831 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
2832 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
2834 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
2836 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
2839 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
2840 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
2841 fields are now calculated at runtime.
2843 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
2844 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
2845 are calculated at runtime.
2847 Sun Nov 30 19:14:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

2855 Renamed m_replace() to context_replace().
2856 Renamed m_delete() to context_del().
2857 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
2858 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
2859 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
2861 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
2862 adding message to folder itself.
2864 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
2865 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
2866 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
2869 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
2870 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
2873 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
2874 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
2875 is the same as the direct smtp code).
2877 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
2878 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
2880 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
2881 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
2882 code to use it yet).
2884 Thu Nov 13 18:42:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2886 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.
2888 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never
2889 called with a value larger than 30 mintues.
2891 * Fixed race condition in rmm and refile, so that
2892 context is updated before external rmmproc is called.
2894 * Removed all the OVERHEAD code.
2896 * Move code to add message to folder from refile.c
2899 Fri Jul 25 19:39:29 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

2914 * Removed all the MF (uucp filtering) code.
2916 * Removed all the code for BERK.
2918 * Removed all the code for stand-alone delivery (MHMTS).

2921 smtp.c. Changed the name of the directory to mts/smtp.
2923 * Changed autoconf to use @sysconfdir@ for location of
2924 configuration files.
2926 * Changed #define in mhn.c from FTP to BUILTIN_FTP.

2932 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
2934 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
2935 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
2937 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
2940 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
2941 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
2943 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
2944 number of refiled message.
2946 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
2948 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
2949 for return value of wait().
2951 * Change configure to also check /bin for "more".
2953 Sat Jul 12 00:02:23 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2955 * Released nmh-0.16.

2959 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
2961 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
2962 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
2963 deal with binary messages, yet).
2965 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
2967 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
2969 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
2970 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
2971 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
2972 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
2973 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
2974 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
2976 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
2977 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
2979 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
2980 From MH-6.8.4 patch.
2982 * Fix double free of ctinfo in user_content when using
2983 #forw with single message. From John MacMillan (and
2986 * Changed -mhnproc switch for show, to -showmimeproc.
2988 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".
2990 * Added "mime" option to "whatnow", which calls the program
2991 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
2994 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
2997 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
2999 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
3000 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
3001 which used unsigned chars by default.
3003 Sat Jun 21 01:21:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3005 * Released nmh-0.15.
3007 * Added new form "scan.unseen" to distribution. It marks messages

3012 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
3014 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
3017 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
3018 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
3019 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
3021 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
3022 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
3024 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
3026 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
3027 they conflict with defines on AIX.
3029 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
3030 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
3031 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
3032 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
3034 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
3035 and put in own subroutine.
3037 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
3038 and put in own subroutine.
3040 * Moved code to remove messages from folder into own
3041 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and
3042 refile.c to use new routine.
3044 Fri May 16 06:09:31 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3046 * Renamed m_seqok to seq_nameok.
3048 * Changed m_setunseen, msh, mshcmds, flist, and scan to use
3051 * Changed m_seqflag to return the number of a sequence rather
3052 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
3053 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
3055 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
3058 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before
3059 adding message to sequence.
3061 * Renamed function m_setvis to m_setunseen, and renamed
3062 corresponding file in sbr.
3064 * Renamed function m_setseq to m_setprev, and renamed corresponding
3067 * Changed mark.c and pick.c to use m_seqaddsel and m_seqdelsel.
3069 * Added new function m_seqdelsel to m_seqdel.c, which deletes
3070 all selected messages from a sequence.
3072 * Added new function m_seqaddsel to m_seqadd.c, which adds all
3073 selected messages to a sequence.
3075 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,
3078 Thu May 15 00:53:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3080 * Renamed function pack_folder to m_packfolder, and moved it
3081 from uip/folder.c into its own file sbr/m_packfolder.c
3083 Wed May 14 23:38:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3085 * Changed function m_gmsg to m_readfolder. Renamed file

3102 * Added new options `-checkmime', `-nocheckmime', and `-mhnproc'
3103 to show. Restructured code to handle options to various
3104 `procs' better. Deprecated `-noshowproc' option and NOMHNPROC
3105 environment variable.
3107 * Added new man page `mh-draft' which documents the
3108 draft folder facility in nmh.
3110 * Renamed fmtsbr.h to fmt_scan.h. Renamed fmtcompile.h

3122 * Released nmh-0.13.
3124 * Changed mhpath so it doesn't abort if a message sequence
3125 such as "mhpath all" expands to more than 1000 messages.
3126 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
3127 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
3130 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
3131 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
3133 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3135 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if
3136 necessary. So `folders' can now handle more than 300 folders.
3138 Tue Apr 22 14:01:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3140 * Change configure to use a compile check to see if the tm struct

3157 mp->attrstats with macros.
3159 * If system doesn't have SIGEMT (like Linux), then use SIGTERM
3162 * Change fstat to stat in m_gmsg.c since Linux wants
3165 * Merge Linux patch sent in by Michel Oosterhof (original
3166 patch from bsa@kf8nh.wariat.org).
3168 * Document an undocumented MH feature. mhn -form mhl.null
3169 will suppress the display of the message header.
3171 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
3173 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c
3174 and mshcmds.c, rather than hard coding in /bin/cat.
3176 * Add mhnproc to the list of `procs' in mh-profile.man.
3178 * Add configure test for lorder and tsort commands.
3180 * Commented out the padding in the `msgs` struct in h/mh.h
3182 * Change m_gmsg.c to allocate elements to the `info' array by
3183 500 elements at a time (rather than MAXFOLDERS / 5).
3185 * Add note to man page for mhmail that zero length messages are
3186 not sent. Need to use -body "" to send empty messages.

3190 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
3192 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
3193 folder/message structure when done with folder.
3195 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is
3196 defined even if message is missing "From " line.
3198 Mon Mar 31 03:37:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3200 * Released nmh-0.10.

3207 Thu Mar 20 03:21:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3209 * Reversed previous decision to retain "From " lines in slocal.
3210 The "From " line is now removed from all messages.
3212 * inc now saves the date from the "From " envelope in the
3213 Delivery-Date header for all messages.
3215 * sbr/m_getfld.c: Clean up processing of Return-Path and

3248 * ruserpass.c : removed conflicting prototypes.
3250 * rcvtty.c : Fixed rcvtty to obey terminal permissions granted
3251 by `mesg' command. Previously only worked on BSD machines.
3253 Mon Mar 3 00:18:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3255 * rcvtty.c : Changed to use #define UTMP_FILE (if exists) rather
3256 than hard coded "/etc/utmp".
3258 * Released nmh-0.08.
3260 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
3261 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of
3262 locking database itself.

3266 * Added slocal action `mmdf' to deliver to a file in mmdf format.
3268 * Changed the slocal actions `file' and `>' to always deliver in
3269 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
3272 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
3273 rather than mmdf format.
3275 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
3276 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
3277 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
3278 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
3280 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
3282 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3284 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
3287 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
3288 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
3289 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
3291 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
3292 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
3293 rcvpack so you can choose the preferred format.
3295 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3297 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
3298 can still easily change this in config.h).
3300 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
3301 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
3302 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
3304 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3306 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather
3307 than tzset and external timezone variable.

3318 Tue Feb 11 01:29:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3320 * Add check to configure, so that if ruserpass, or _ruserpass
3321 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
3323 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
3324 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
3327 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
3328 built-in FTP client in mhn.
3330 * Added configure check for ushort and ulong. Change code
3331 to use ushort/ulong rather than u_short/u_long.
3333 * A couple of small cleanups in locking code.
3335 * Added configure check for gmtoff element in struct tm.
3337 * Added configure check for tzset.

3341 * Released nmh-0.06.
3343 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
3344 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
3346 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
3347 many such machines around anymore.
3349 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
3350 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
3352 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
3353 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
3355 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3357 * Check lex generated file in zotnet/tws and use
3358 pre-generated version if necessary.
3360 * Released nmh-0.05.
3362 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
3363 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
3364 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
3365 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
3367 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
3368 be linked in one pass.
3370 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3372 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
3373 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
3375 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3377 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.

3381 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
3382 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
3383 become the current folder.
3385 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3387 * Released nmh-0.04.
3389 * Define ospeed and PC in termsbr.c is OS doesn't have
3392 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3394 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
3395 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
3396 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
3398 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3400 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
3401 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
3403 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3405 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
3406 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
3409 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
3410 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
3412 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3414 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
3415 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
3416 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
3417 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
3418 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
3419 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
3421 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3423 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
3424 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
3426 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
3427 a file (currently need to specify full path).
3429 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3431 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
3432 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
3434 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3436 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
3437 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
3438 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
3440 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3442 * Released nmh-0.03.
3444 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
3445 .mh_sequence file existed.
3447 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
3448 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
3450 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
3451 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
3454 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3456 * Changed flist option -unseen to -[no]all. Cleaned up
3459 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3461 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
3462 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
3463 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
3465 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3467 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
3468 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
3469 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
3471 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3473 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL
3474 and allocate its own buffer. Borrowed from zsh.
3476 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
3478 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3480 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
3481 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
3482 directory from where the source code is located.
3484 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3486 * Released nmh-0.02.
3488 Wed Jan 1 17:41:52 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

3493 Tue Dec 31 03:07:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3495 * Changed code to use strerror, rather than using sys_errlist
3496 and sys_nerr directly.
3498 Mon Dec 30 02:15:25 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3500 * -compat switch from install-mh removed.
3502 * Changed the default POP port from "pop" to "pop3".
3504 Sat Dec 28 13:25:05 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3506 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
3507 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
3508 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
3509 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
3510 rather than in script.
3512 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3514 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
3516 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with
3517 macro defined on Solaris.
3519 Thu Dec 26 02:50:15 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3521 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
3522 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
3524 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
3525 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
3526 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
3527 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
3530 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3532 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
3533 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.
3535 * Fixed configure test so that termcap variable ospeed is
3538 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3540 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
3542 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included
3543 in mhn.c. Changed md5 to use memset and memcpy.
3545 Fri Dec 20 02:29:37 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3547 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
3548 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
3550 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3552 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
3553 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
3554 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
3555 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
3556 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
3557 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
3559 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3561 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
3563 * Released nmh-0.01.
3565 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
3566 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
3567 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
3570 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3572 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
3575 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3577 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
3578 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
3580 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3582 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
3583 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
3584 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
3585 script to find_program.
3587 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3589 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
3590 speed up -recurse option.
3592 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
3593 yet, but it compiles :-)
3595 * Changed default location for install to
3596 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
3597 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
3598 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
3601 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
3602 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
3603 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
