3 * moved the documentation into a "docs" subdirectory. The
4 top-level directory was becoming messy. I also created another
5 file MAILING-LISTS describing the various nmh lists and the
6 archival system, and updated the FAQ to refer to it. I also
7 created a new README in the top level that is basically a list
8 of pointers to the various documentation. The old README I've
9 moved to docs/README.history, since that seemed like the right
12 Fri Apr 14 23:10:44 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
14 * Upped the version number to 1.0.4+dev until the next nmh release.
16 * Added a "releasing nmh" section to README.developers, while the
17 process was fresh in my mind.
19 Fri Apr 14 18:21:34 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
21 * Added new files README.developers, ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6, and
22 ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html to DIST target in Makefile.in.
26 Tue Apr 11 21:37:03 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
28 * Applied Brian Campbell <bacam@tardis.ed.ac.uk>'s mhn.defaults.sh
31 It appears that there shouldn't be quotes around the %s in the
32 iso-8859-1 charset entry; xterm passes the remaining arguments
33 to the program, quoting them means that xterm thinks they're
34 part of the program's name.
36 This %s isn't the same as the "Insert content subtype" one from
37 mhshow-show-* -- it doesn't come from MIME headers and is safe not
40 Sun Apr 09 13:03:59 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
42 * added check in fmt_compile() to handle a single-character
43 format string. fmt_compile() depends on having an array of
44 format characters with an empty item at the end. A
45 single-character format would cause programs using this
46 function to segfault because the algorithm used to decide on
47 the length of the array mistakenly created a single-item array
48 when the format string was one character. This eventually
49 caused problems when the program attempted to test item+1
52 Thu Apr 06 21:53:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
54 * Richard Coleman threw out a lot of old MH-specific files in nmh.
55 Much of the stuff, indeed, is not worth saving, but there are
56 nuggets that are very worthwhile, and should probably be added
57 back in. Most important, IMHO, are the MH change logs, as they
58 can help answer questions like "Why is this code like this?" or
59 "How long has this been broken?" or "What was this ever used for?"
61 I've added a new file to the nmh tree called
62 ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6. It's cobbled together from the
63 mh-6.8.4/papers/mh*/MHCHANGES files. I've re-ordered the entries
64 to go from newest at the top to oldest at the bottom to match the
65 ChangeLog convention. Unfortunately there are no change logs for
66 versions of MH prior to 3 in the MH tar files available at
67 <ftp://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/mh>. Also, it appears to me that there
68 are MH-6.6 changes that aren't documented in the logs.
70 I've also added ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html. This is
71 based on mh-6.8.4/papers/changes/mh-changes.ms. The nroff format
72 and its "catman"-type output are a pain to deal with, but I was
73 loath to throw away the formatting, so I converted the file to
74 HTML. The only actual markup in the body are the "<B>" and "<U>"
75 tags, and "<" and ">" instead of '<' and '>', so it's quite
76 doable to view the file in plain ASCII mode as well. Note that
77 some of the changes this file documents as having been made in
78 MH-6.8.4 may not be present in nmh -- Richard started with 6.8.3
79 and later put in certain 6.8.4 stuff.
81 Wed Apr 05 21:09:28 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
83 * Applied Eric Schnoebelen <eric@cirr.com>'s mhshowsbr.c patch
84 fixing apparent bugs in Dan Winship's new security quoting code:
86 Since upgrading, I've been getting the following errors
87 while attempting to process some MIME messages:
89 (1) Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
94 (2) line 1/10 (END)Segmentation fault (core dumped)
96 (2) appears to be due to the testing of an unset pointer in
97 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux(). (1) appears to be caused by
98 mis-quoting a filename being handed to the shell in
99 mhshowsbr.c:show_content_aux().
101 Resolving the pointer reference issue in
102 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux() turned up a similar mis-quoting
103 problem in the routine.
105 Tue Mar 28 16:17:39 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
107 * Applied Todd.Miller@courtesan.com's patch to dropsbr.c to
108 prevent core dumping on packf. Here's the note from his message:
110 Since sizeof(buffer) == sizeof(tmpbuffer) packf will dump
111 core on a file w/o a From line with a line >= BUFSIZ.
112 I noticed this because I had a junk file in my mail
115 Fri Mar 17 11:59:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
117 * wesley.craig@umich.edu did not document his previous KPOP patch,
118 so I did so, and asked him to check what I wrote. Unfortunately
119 he didn't notice my misunderstanding of his patch. I wrote that
120 if you #define POPSERVICE "kpop", inc and msgchk will use KPOP
121 exclusively, but if you leave it as "pop3", you can use Wesley's
122 new -kpop switch on a given invocation. Instead, however, -kpop
123 turned out to be necessary on every invocation, and a KPOP user
124 complained. Applied Wesley's new patch, which makes things work
125 like I thought his original patch did. After that, did one more
126 clarifying pass to the documentation in inc.man and msgchk.man.
128 Wed Mar 15 18:45:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
130 * When I fixed the long-standing makedir() bugs in January, I had
131 the code call strtoul(..., 0), which I believed to be safe as all
132 modes specified as ASCII constants in the nmh code started with a
133 leading zero (signifying octal), which I did as it would work if
134 internal constants were ever changed to hex. Unfortunately I was
135 unaware of the "Folder-Protect:" .mh_profile entry, which
136 mh-profile.man documents as an octal-only constant, with no
137 leading zero required. I've changed the strtoul() call to an
138 atooi() call and removed the misleading leading zeroes on the
139 ASCII octal constants in the code and man pages. Also changed the
140 "Folder-Protect:" example in the man page to something more
141 interesting than a duplication of the default.
143 * When I added my --enable-masquerade option, you'll note that I
144 didn't make it --enable-nmh-masquerade. I find the --enable-nmh-*
145 options too wordy and I'm not sure why Richard went that route.
146 I've renamed them to just --enable-*, but the old versions will
147 still work as well (they just aren't advertised).
149 * Added a line to the "nmh configuration" output saying whether
152 * Added a new README.developers file. From the file:
154 This file is intended to provide a few tips for anyone doing
155 development on nmh. Developers who learn things "the hard
156 way" about the nmh codebase (as opposed to local info best
157 encoded in a comment) are encouraged to share their wisdom
160 Currently the topics are "autoconf files" and "directory structure".
162 Tue Mar 14 12:41:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
164 * Applied, after some finessing,
165 Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s --with-smtpservers patch:
167 Here's a patch that allows you to add
169 --with-smtpservers=<some.host.name>
171 to the ./configure command line to set the "servers: " line in
172 etc/mts.conf. Around here, we use "mailhost" so that all
173 machines in the current domain just talk to a central machine
174 and nothing else runs an MTA. Now, I can use
176 --with-smtpservers=mailhost
178 instead of having to remember to fix this by hand (and often
179 forgetting to do so!).
181 * Inspired by Simon's patch, added an --enable-masquerade option
182 to configure. It will set the "masquerade:" line of mts.conf.
183 You may specify a subset of the three types of masquerading, like
184 --enable-masquerade="draft_from mmailid", or leave off explicit
185 arguments to enable all three types.
187 * Alphabetized the --enable and --with options in configure.in and
188 INSTALL and added documentation of the two new options to the latter.
190 * Added new dependency for mts.conf: Makefile. If this isn't
191 done, then when you reconfigure nmh with new values for
192 --enable-masquerade or --with-smtpservers, you'll fail to get an
193 updated copy of mts.conf.
195 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtimep.lex patch:
197 It seems that some MUA's didn't handle y2k very well - ELM
198 seems to be one of them, and Ultrix's DXmail (based on MH!).
199 I've got a few emails this month that look like:
201 575 Jan 00 Xxxxxx Xxxx 3603 ...
203 22+ Jan 00 Xxx Xxxxx 1771 ...
205 The first has "15 Jan 100" as the date and the second has
206 "19 Jan 00" as the date. The following works around this so
207 that scan, show, sortm, etc work ok.
209 I put Simon's patch under the control of a new #define called
210 FIX_NON_Y2K_COMPLIANT_MUA_DATES. There's some commentary in
211 acconfig.h about when you might not want to #define it.
213 * Created new dtimep.c-lexed with Simon's change using dtimep.lex
214 lexed on Solaris 2.6. Added missing dependency in
215 zotnet/tws/Makefile.in for dtimep.c: dtimep.c-lexed.
217 * Added scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD format files.
219 Mon Mar 13 21:32:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
221 * Applied Sullivan N. Beck <sbeck@cise.ufl.edu>'s mhshow-suffix patch:
223 With the patch below, you can add lines like:
225 mhshow-suffix-application/msword: .doc
226 mhshow-suffix-application/PostScript: .ps
228 to the mhn.defaults file to append the given suffix to a
229 scratch file. This allows applications which require a
230 certain suffix to run properly.
232 * Removed -force_html from lynx entry in mhn.defaults.sh (I
233 believe older versions of lynx lack that option) and added
234 "mhshow-suffix-text/html: .html".
236 * Modified username_extension masquerading to only use the
237 extended address on generated [Resent-]From: lines and SMTP
238 envelope From:. With Neil's original implementation, nmh's global
239 idea of the username was changed, which would result in inc lying
240 and saying you had no new mail because it was looking for a
241 mailbox called, for instance, "dan-nmh" (where username was "dan"
242 and $USERNAME_EXTENSION was "-nmh").
244 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtime.c patch:
246 There's a wrap-around problem that affects the implementation
247 of Zeller's congruence in dtime.c. This causes the day-of-week
248 calculations to fail for dates after Feb 29, 2000 (probably up
249 until some year far in the future).
251 Mon Mar 06 12:20:20 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
253 * Applied Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s msh.c patch:
255 I finally tracked down the problem in msh that was causing
256 errors whenever I tried to examine a 'mmdf' style mailbox.
258 It turns out that not enough memory was being allocated with
259 calloc(), causing memory pointers to be overwritten and
262 Fri Mar 03 16:07:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
264 * Changed the new "plussed_user" option to mts.conf's
265 "masquerade:" to "username_extension" after getting feedback from
266 qmail users, who use '-' as a separator rather than '+'. Removed
267 checking of $USERPLUS variable. Now check $USERNAME_EXTENSION,
268 which needs to include the appropriate separator for your MTA
269 ('-', '+', or whatever) as its first character.
271 Thu Mar 02 23:04:30 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
273 * Added a new "boolean" type to mh.h and TRUE and FALSE constants.
275 * Added a note to DIFFERENCES stating that it's out-of-date
276 (Richard was the last one to update it) and that we should
277 consider only documenting incompatibilities with MH there.
279 * Implemented (and documented) a third kind of username
280 masquerading: "plussed user" masquerading. This one was suggested
281 by Neil Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>. It's based on sendmail's
282 "plussed user" feature, where mail sent to <user>+<string> will be
283 delivered to <user>. When it's enabled, it's controlled by the
284 $USERPLUS environment variable. How is it enabled? Well, that
287 * Renamed the "mmailid:" setting in mts.conf to "masquerade:", and
288 changed it so that rather than being a boolean, it can be set to
289 any combination of the three values "draft_from", "mmailid", and
290 "plussed_user". Thus it is now possible to enable the three types
291 of masquerading individually.
293 * Fixed a bug with "mmailid" masquerading (dating back to MH?)
294 where if it was turned on, ','s would no longer be considered
295 GECOS field delimiters.
297 Wed Mar 01 23:30:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
299 * Changed the GECOS-field '&' translation behavior to be
300 controlled by the BSD42 #define rather than GCOS_HACK, since it's
301 apparently always appropriate on OSes where BSD42 is #defined, and
302 never appropriate on any other OSes. Thanks to Kimmo Suominen for
303 responding to my "What is this code here for?" comment in mts.c
304 and explaining the feature.
306 Mon Feb 28 21:50:29 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
308 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3+dev (ideally this should be
309 done by whoever makes a release tar file, immediately after doing
312 * Applied Paul Fox <pgf-spam@foxharp.boston.ma.us>'s scansbr.c
313 patch, posted to comp.mail.mh, which he says prevents loss of mail
314 when inc'ing into a full filesystem.
316 * Changed "echo > stamp-h.in" in Makefile.in to "date > stamp-h.in"
317 so that stamp-h.in will be different each time configure.in and
318 related files are changed, making it easier to check it in (which
319 is necessary to prevent unnecessary autoconf calls).
321 * My declaration of initgroups() in slocal.c to eliminate the "no
322 prototype" warning wasn't portable (FreeBSD 3.[23] choked). Now
323 use AC_EGREP_HEADER to see where initgroups() is declared, if
326 Sun Feb 20 12:17:15 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
328 * Fix security hole in mhshowsbr.c which allowed untrusted shell
331 * Released nmh 1.0.3.
333 Thu Feb 10 10:54:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
335 * Oops. %-escapes on mhstore lines in mhn.defaults.sh should not
336 be surrounded by single quotes, as a shell is not spawned when
337 just saving files, and the filenames will end up with literal
338 quotes embedded in them.
340 Fri Feb 04 12:29:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
342 * Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
343 got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
344 the -help output. One theory is that they were making reference
345 to the fact that clearly you know about the -help option since
346 you're currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea
347 to overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
348 supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
351 The other theory is that because you can say something like
352 "mhstore -" and get "mhstore: - ambiguous. It matches" followed
353 by the same list of switches you get with -help, they were saying
354 you can "sorta" abbreviate "-help" as "-". You don't get the
355 "Usage:" string, though, so it's not really the same thing.
357 Thu Feb 03 17:52:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
359 * Applied wesley.craig@umich.edu's KPOP patches. According to him:
361 The following patch fixes a problem with requesting a
362 service key for a machine that has multiple 'A' records. It
363 also makes "-kpop" a command line option, for users who
364 would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".
366 Did no testing of the new features, as I don't have access to a
369 * Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
371 * Modified INSTALL and config.h.in to reflect the new -kpop feature.
373 Fri Jan 28 17:39:24 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
375 * All %-escapes in mhn.defaults that actually expand to something
376 should be surrounded by single quotes. Added quotes to the ones
377 in mhn.defaults.sh that were missing them.
379 * Added check for lynx to write mhshow-show-text/html line in
382 Thu Jan 27 12:22:25 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
384 * makedir() had multiple bugs dating back to MH. An octal
385 constant was apparently being interpreted as decimal, resulting in
386 directories with no user read or execute permissions, making
387 nested directory creation fail. And there wasn't even an
388 _attempt_ to set desired permissions (e.g. from "Folder-Protect:"
389 in .mh_profile) on the outer directories of a nested directory.
391 * A second `make install' would always fail because the check for
392 whether mh_profile.5 existed was written incorrectly.
394 Wed Jan 26 02:22:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
396 * Added documentation on both types of masquerading to post's man
399 Tue Jan 25 22:58:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
401 * Doug's portability fix of my setgid inc autodetection had a
402 caching bug -- if you re-ran configure, uip/Makefile would be
403 corrupted, and installation would bomb out on OSes where inc needs
406 * Implemented a new kind of email address masquerading. Usually,
407 when a user writes a custom "From:" header in a draft, nmh uses it
408 rather than generating one. However, the user's true address is
409 used in the SMTP envelope "From:" and is revealed in the "Sender:"
410 header. Now, when mmailid is set to non-zero, the envelope
411 "From:" uses the address specified in the draft "From:" header,
412 and there is no "Sender:" header. This is useful when sending on
413 behalf of a remote POP3 account or when remote mail robots
414 incorrectly use the envelope "From:" in preference to the body
415 "From:". This processing has only been implemented for post, not
416 for the undocumented spost (which was already missing some "From:"
417 processing that post has).
419 Mon Jan 24 22:26:06 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
421 * Got rid of the rest of the gcc -Wall warnings that I didn't have
422 time for on 1999-07-15 (and, it would seem, some new ones people
423 introduced since then). The primary ones were the warnings that
424 default prototypes were being used for [v]snprintf() and
425 str[n]casecmp(). As of right now, there are _no_ compilation
426 warnings except on dtimep.c-lexed (at least under AIX 4.1.5 and
429 Sun Jan 2 23:42:18 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
431 * Move mhtest from bindir to libdir.
433 * Move sendfiles from libdir to bindir.
435 * Updated sendfiles manpage to reflect this change.
437 * Added documentation for -build and -file switches to repl and
438 forw manpages (patch from Peter Maydell).
440 * Fixed interaction between specifying -cc in profile and -group on
443 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
445 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
446 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
447 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
450 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
452 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
453 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
454 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
455 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
456 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
457 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).
459 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
461 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
463 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
465 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
466 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
467 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
468 caught again. This works for now.
470 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
472 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
474 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
475 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
477 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
479 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
480 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
482 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
484 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
486 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
488 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
489 changes. Both need more cleanup.
491 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
493 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
494 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
495 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
496 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
497 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
500 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
502 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
503 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
504 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
506 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
507 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
510 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
512 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
513 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
514 to a directory on another device with more free space.
516 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
518 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
519 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
521 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
523 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
526 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
527 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
529 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
530 macros, regardless of platform.
532 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
533 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
535 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
536 with x-conversions=gzip.
538 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
540 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
543 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
544 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
545 implicit definition of ioctl().
547 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
548 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
549 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
550 want to mess with them.
552 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
554 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
555 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
557 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
558 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
560 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
561 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
562 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
564 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
565 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
566 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
568 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
571 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
574 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
575 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
578 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
579 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
582 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
583 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
587 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
589 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
590 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
591 preventing compilation on at least linux.
593 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
594 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
596 Thu Sep 09 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
598 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
600 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
601 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
602 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
603 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
605 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
606 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
608 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
610 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
612 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
614 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
615 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
617 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
619 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
620 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
622 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
623 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
624 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
625 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
627 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
628 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
630 Sat Jun 09 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
632 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
633 substitute it for mktemp if available.
635 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
637 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
638 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
641 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
643 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
645 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
647 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
648 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
650 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
651 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
652 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
654 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
655 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
656 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
658 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
659 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
660 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
662 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
663 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
666 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
667 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
669 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
670 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
672 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
675 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
676 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
677 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
679 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
680 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
682 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
683 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
684 <elleron@servtech.com>.
686 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
687 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
690 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
691 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
693 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
694 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
695 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
696 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
698 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
699 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
701 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
705 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
706 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
707 would not be changed.
709 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
710 one from the Apache web server.
712 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
713 (this should have been done a long time ago).
715 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
716 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
717 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
719 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
721 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
723 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
724 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
727 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
728 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
729 removes a bad race condition.
731 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
734 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
735 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
736 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
738 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
739 sequence information.
741 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
742 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
744 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
747 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
750 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
752 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
753 interpret 034 as octal.
755 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
757 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
758 mhstore, and mhbuild.
760 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
761 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
763 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
764 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
766 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
767 in the c_cefile structure when building.
769 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
770 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
772 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
773 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
774 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
776 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
777 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
778 and mhshow. Updated man pages
780 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
782 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
784 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
785 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
788 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
790 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
791 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
793 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
794 header field information.
796 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
797 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
799 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
800 values when parsing a content.
802 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
803 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
805 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
806 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
808 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
809 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
811 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
812 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
814 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
816 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
818 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
820 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
822 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
823 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
826 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
827 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
829 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
830 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
831 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
832 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
833 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
834 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
837 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
839 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
840 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
841 buffer length checks for this parameter.
843 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
844 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
846 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
848 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
849 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
850 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
851 of the limits on the length of command lines.
853 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
854 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
857 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
858 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
859 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
860 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
863 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
867 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
868 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
870 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
871 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
872 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
873 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
876 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
877 mhbuild returns an error.
879 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
880 rename the draft file.
882 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
883 use a global variable.
885 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
886 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
888 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
889 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
891 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
892 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
893 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
895 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
896 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
898 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
899 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
902 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
903 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
906 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
907 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
909 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
910 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
911 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
913 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
914 to new function output_content_folder.
916 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
917 new function output_content_file.
919 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
920 to new function parse_format_string.
922 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
923 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
924 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
925 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
927 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
928 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
929 message/external file from ftp.
931 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
932 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
933 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
935 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
936 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
939 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
942 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
943 new file mhstoresbr.c
945 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
948 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
949 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
951 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
952 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
954 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
955 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
956 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
958 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
960 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
962 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
963 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
966 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
967 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
969 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
972 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
974 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
978 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
979 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
980 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
981 is still the same (dashstuffing).
983 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
984 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
985 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
986 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
987 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
989 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
990 But it is not on by default.
992 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
993 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
995 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
997 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
999 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
1001 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
1003 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
1004 number of the "cur" message when packing.
1006 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1008 * Released nmh-0.25.
1010 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
1011 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
1012 uses the original name of the library.
1014 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
1015 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
1018 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
1019 list_content and list_debug.
1021 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
1023 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
1024 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.
1026 1998-02-27 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1028 * Released nmh-0.24.
1030 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
1032 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
1033 are given, that order doesn't matter.
1035 * Fix bug in seq_list.c when realloc'ing for
1036 large sequence line.
1038 1998-02-23 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1040 * Released nmh-0.23.
1042 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
1044 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
1045 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan
1046 content, decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary
1047 string). I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
1049 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
1050 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
1053 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
1055 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
1057 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
1059 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
1060 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
1062 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
1063 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.
1065 * Add note to MACHINES file that on Linux, configure
1066 doesn't find the functions sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
1068 * Fix configuration for machines that don't have (or find)
1069 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
1071 1998-02-11 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1073 * Released nmh-0.22.
1075 * Add a configure check for sigsetjmp. Add some conditional
1076 #define's in h/signals.h in case it's not found.
1078 * Added additional notes about -auto switch in mhn man page.
1080 * Added note about MM_CHARSET environment variable to
1081 mh-profile(5) man page.
1083 * Fix signal problem in mhn.c (change setjmp/longjmp to
1084 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp).
1086 1998-02-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1088 * Released nmh-0.22-pre1.
1090 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
1091 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
1093 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
1095 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
1096 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
1097 entry point for parsing MIME files.
1099 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
1100 source message on the standard input.
1102 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
1104 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
1105 rather than -rfc934mode.
1107 * Fix mhbuild, so that Content-Description and RFC-822 comments
1108 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
1111 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
1112 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).
1114 * Restore HP specific code to zotnet/tws/lexstring.c. Apparently
1117 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1119 * Released nmh-0.21.
1121 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
1122 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.
1124 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what transfer
1127 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what character set
1128 to use for text contents.
1130 * Removed old hpux specific code from zotnet/tws/lexstring.c
1132 1998-02-02 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1134 * Released nmh-0.21-pre2.
1136 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
1138 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
1139 header fields as per RFC-2047.
1141 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
1142 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
1143 spaces between encoded word are.
1145 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
1147 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
1148 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
1150 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
1151 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
1152 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
1154 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
1156 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
1157 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
1159 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.
1161 * Added support for %(decode) to fmtdump.c.
1163 * check_charset() now accepts US-ASCII as a subset of any
1164 ISO-8859-X character set.
1166 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
1169 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
1170 permissions, not write permissions.
1172 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
1173 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
1175 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
1178 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1180 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
1182 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
1183 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
1185 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
1186 message contains valid character set.
1188 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
1189 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
1191 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
1192 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
1194 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
1195 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
1196 between an encoded word and normal text.
1198 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
1199 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
1201 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
1202 as a RFC-2047 header field.
1204 * The command install-mh now recognizes the switches -version
1207 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
1208 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
1211 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
1212 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
1214 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
1215 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
1217 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
1219 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1221 * Released nmh-0.20.
1223 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
1225 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.
1227 * Changed the default format file for mhl (mhl.format) to
1228 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
1229 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
1231 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
1232 and the To: line was missing.
1234 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
1236 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1238 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
1240 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
1241 watch the POP transaction.
1243 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
1244 first, and use it if available.
1246 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
1247 first, and use it if available.
1249 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1251 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
1253 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
1254 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
1255 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
1258 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
1259 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
1260 returns the state FLDPLUS.
1262 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
1263 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
1266 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
1268 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
1269 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
1271 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
1273 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
1274 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
1276 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
1277 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
1278 message to which you are replying.
1280 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
1281 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
1282 making group replies.
1284 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
1286 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1288 * Released nmh-0.19.
1290 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
1291 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
1293 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
1294 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
1295 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
1296 to the end of the man page.
1298 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
1299 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
1300 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
1301 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
1302 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
1303 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
1305 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
1308 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
1309 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
1310 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
1312 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
1313 the next available number above the message number you wish
1316 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
1317 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
1319 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
1320 file sbr/seq_print.c
1322 * flist will now update the current folder.
1324 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
1325 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
1326 but now undocumented.
1328 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
1331 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
1332 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
1334 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
1336 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
1337 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
1339 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1341 * Released nmh-0.18.
1343 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
1344 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
1345 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
1347 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
1348 retains the public/private status of sequences.
1350 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
1351 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
1352 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
1353 previous public/private status.
1355 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
1358 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
1361 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
1362 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
1363 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
1365 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
1366 take option to determine whether it should get current
1367 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
1368 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
1370 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
1372 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
1373 wait for stopped processes.
1375 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
1376 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
1378 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1380 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
1382 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
1383 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
1385 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
1386 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
1388 * Change the way that memory for message status is
1389 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
1390 the folder/message structure. This required changing
1391 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
1393 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
1396 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
1399 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
1401 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
1402 the debugging output.
1404 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
1405 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
1407 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1409 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
1411 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
1412 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
1414 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
1416 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
1417 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
1418 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
1419 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
1420 in the given sequence.
1422 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
1423 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
1424 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
1425 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
1426 subdirectories of a given directory.
1428 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
1429 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
1430 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
1432 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
1433 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
1435 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
1437 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
1440 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
1441 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
1442 fields are now calculated at runtime.
1444 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
1445 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
1446 are calculated at runtime.
1448 Sun Nov 30 19:14:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1450 * Released nmh-0.18-pre2.
1452 * Add paragraph to man page for install-mh and to INSTALL file
1453 about checking for global mh.profile.
1455 * Renamed m_find() to context_find().
1456 Renamed m_replace() to context_replace().
1457 Renamed m_delete() to context_del().
1458 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
1459 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
1460 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
1462 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
1463 adding message to folder itself.
1465 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
1466 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
1467 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
1470 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
1471 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
1474 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
1475 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
1476 is the same as the direct smtp code).
1478 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
1479 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
1481 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
1482 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
1483 code to use it yet).
1485 Thu Nov 13 18:42:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1487 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.
1489 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never
1490 called with a value larger than 30 mintues.
1492 * Fixed race condition in rmm and refile, so that
1493 context is updated before external rmmproc is called.
1495 * Removed all the OVERHEAD code.
1497 * Move code to add message to folder from refile.c
1500 Fri Jul 25 19:39:29 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1502 * Did some rearranging of the internals of inc.c.
1504 * Make -inplace the default for anno, forw, dist, and repl.
1506 * Changed --enable-smtp to --with-mts={smtp,sendmail}
1508 * Created new directory mts/sendmail for direct sendmail
1509 interface (although it currently still uses SMTP).
1511 * Removed all the TMA (trusted mail agent) code
1513 * Removed all the TTYD (terminal access daemon) code
1515 * Removed all the MF (uucp filtering) code.
1517 * Removed all the code for BERK.
1519 * Removed all the code for stand-alone delivery (MHMTS).
1521 * Split the file mts/sendmail/smail.c into sendmail.c and
1522 smtp.c. Changed the name of the directory to mts/smtp.
1524 * Changed autoconf to use @sysconfdir@ for location of
1525 configuration files.
1527 * Changed #define in mhn.c from FTP to BUILTIN_FTP.
1529 Mon Jul 21 03:22:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1531 * Released nmh-0.17.
1533 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
1535 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
1536 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
1538 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
1541 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
1542 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
1544 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
1545 number of refiled message.
1547 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
1549 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
1550 for return value of wait().
1552 * Change configure to also check /bin for "more".
1554 Sat Jul 12 00:02:23 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1556 * Released nmh-0.16.
1558 Mon Jun 23 20:13:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1560 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
1562 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
1563 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
1564 deal with binary messages, yet).
1566 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
1568 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
1570 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
1571 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
1572 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
1573 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
1574 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
1575 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
1577 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
1578 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
1580 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
1581 From MH-6.8.4 patch.
1583 * Fix double free of ctinfo in user_content when using
1584 #forw with single message. From John MacMillan (and
1587 * Changed -mhnproc switch for show, to -showmimeproc.
1589 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".
1591 * Added "mime" option to "whatnow", which calls the program
1592 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
1595 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
1598 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
1600 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
1601 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
1602 which used unsigned chars by default.
1604 Sat Jun 21 01:21:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1606 * Released nmh-0.15.
1608 * Added new form "scan.unseen" to distribution. It marks messages

1611 * Do some rearranging of date/time code in zotnet/tws/dtime.c
1613 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
1615 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
1618 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
1619 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
1620 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
1622 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
1623 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
1625 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
1627 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
1628 they conflict with defines on AIX.
1630 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
1631 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
1632 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
1633 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
1635 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
1636 and put in own subroutine.
1638 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
1639 and put in own subroutine.
1641 * Moved code to remove messages from folder into own
1642 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and
1643 refile.c to use new routine.
1645 Fri May 16 06:09:31 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1647 * Renamed m_seqok to seq_nameok.
1649 * Changed m_setunseen, msh, mshcmds, flist, and scan to use
1652 * Changed m_seqflag to return the number of a sequence rather
1653 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
1654 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
1656 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
1659 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before
1660 adding message to sequence.
1662 * Renamed function m_setvis to m_setunseen, and renamed
1663 corresponding file in sbr.
1665 * Renamed function m_setseq to m_setprev, and renamed corresponding
1668 * Changed mark.c and pick.c to use m_seqaddsel and m_seqdelsel.
1670 * Added new function m_seqdelsel to m_seqdel.c, which deletes
1671 all selected messages from a sequence.
1673 * Added new function m_seqaddsel to m_seqadd.c, which adds all
1674 selected messages to a sequence.
1676 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,
1679 Thu May 15 00:53:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1681 * Renamed function pack_folder to m_packfolder, and moved it
1682 from uip/folder.c into its own file sbr/m_packfolder.c
1684 Wed May 14 23:38:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1686 * Changed function m_gmsg to m_readfolder. Renamed file
1687 sbr/m_gmsg.c to sbr/m_readfolder.c.

1696 * Released nmh-0.14.
1698 * Comment out configure test and code for tgetent to allocate its
1699 own termcap buffer when passed a NULL argument.
1701 Sat Apr 26 03:46:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1703 * Added new options `-checkmime', `-nocheckmime', and `-mhnproc'
1704 to show. Restructured code to handle options to various
1705 `procs' better. Deprecated `-noshowproc' option and NOMHNPROC
1706 environment variable.
1708 * Added new man page `mh-draft' which documents the
1709 draft folder facility in nmh.
1711 * Renamed fmtsbr.h to fmt_scan.h. Renamed fmtcompile.h
1714 * split fmtsbr.c into fmt_scan.c and fmt_new.c. Renamed

1718 * `send -help' wasn't showing the -(no)mime and -split
1721 Fri Apr 25 02:50:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1723 * Released nmh-0.13.
1725 * Changed mhpath so it doesn't abort if a message sequence
1726 such as "mhpath all" expands to more than 1000 messages.
1727 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
1728 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
1731 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
1732 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
1734 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1736 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if
1737 necessary. So `folders' can now handle more than 300 folders.
1739 Tue Apr 22 14:01:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1741 * Change configure to use a compile check to see if the tm struct
1742 has tm_gmtoff, rather than using egrep.
1744 Mon Apr 21 02:19:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1746 * Released nmh-0.12.
1748 * Had set_exists and unset_exists macros backwards.
1750 * Released nmh-0.11.
1752 Thu Apr 10 02:39:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1754 * Added documentation to mh-profile.man about the various
1755 `procs' (mhlproc, showproc, lproc, etc...).
1757 * Replace the bit twiddling for SELECTED, UNSEEN, and
1758 mp->attrstats with macros.
1760 * If system doesn't have SIGEMT (like Linux), then use SIGTERM
1763 * Change fstat to stat in m_gmsg.c since Linux wants
1766 * Merge Linux patch sent in by Michel Oosterhof (original
1767 patch from bsa@kf8nh.wariat.org).
1769 * Document an undocumented MH feature. mhn -form mhl.null
1770 will suppress the display of the message header.
1772 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
1774 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c
1775 and mshcmds.c, rather than hard coding in /bin/cat.
1777 * Add mhnproc to the list of `procs' in mh-profile.man.
1779 * Add configure test for lorder and tsort commands.
1781 * Commented out the padding in the `msgs` struct in h/mh.h
1783 * Change m_gmsg.c to allocate elements to the `info' array by
1784 500 elements at a time (rather than MAXFOLDERS / 5).
1786 * Add note to man page for mhmail that zero length messages are
1787 not sent. Need to use -body "" to send empty messages.
1789 * zotnet/mts/mts.c : compare character with '\0', not NULL.
1791 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
1793 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
1794 folder/message structure when done with folder.
1796 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is
1797 defined even if message is missing "From " line.
1799 Mon Mar 31 03:37:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1801 * Released nmh-0.10.
1803 Sun Mar 30 21:46:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

1808 Thu Mar 20 03:21:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1810 * Reversed previous decision to retain "From " lines in slocal.
1811 The "From " line is now removed from all messages.
1813 * inc now saves the date from the "From " envelope in the
1814 Delivery-Date header for all messages.
1816 * sbr/m_getfld.c: Clean up processing of Return-Path and
1817 Delivery-Date from the "From " envelope.
1819 Mon Mar 17 19:03:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1821 * client.c: cast iaddr to int before comparing return value
1822 of inet_addr with NOTOK.
1824 Tue Mar 11 04:38:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1826 * Grep test for signal names was failing on some OS'es because
1827 of missing tabs in regex.
1829 Sat Mar 8 01:58:22 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1831 * Released nmh-0.09.
1833 * Move config files and format files to *.old before installing.
1835 * Add configure check for killpg.

1847 Tue Mar 4 03:10:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1849 * ruserpass.c : removed conflicting prototypes.
1851 * rcvtty.c : Fixed rcvtty to obey terminal permissions granted
1852 by `mesg' command. Previously only worked on BSD machines.
1854 Mon Mar 3 00:18:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1856 * rcvtty.c : Changed to use #define UTMP_FILE (if exists) rather
1857 than hard coded "/etc/utmp".
1859 * Released nmh-0.08.
1861 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
1862 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of
1863 locking database itself.
1865 Thu Feb 27 05:28:09 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1867 * Added slocal action `mmdf' to deliver to a file in mmdf format.
1869 * Changed the slocal actions `file' and `>' to always deliver in
1870 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
1873 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
1874 rather than mmdf format.
1876 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
1877 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
1878 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
1879 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
1881 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
1883 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1885 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
1888 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
1889 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
1890 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
1892 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
1893 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
1894 rcvpack so you can choose the preferred format.
1896 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1898 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
1899 can still easily change this in config.h).
1901 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
1902 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
1903 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
1905 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1907 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather
1908 than tzset and external timezone variable.
1910 Thu Feb 13 00:35:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1912 * Fixed typo in ruserpass.c in the variable toktabs.
1914 * When ruserpass was added to LIBOBJS, it was missing
1917 * Released nmh-0.07.
1919 Tue Feb 11 01:29:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1921 * Add check to configure, so that if ruserpass, or _ruserpass
1922 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
1924 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
1925 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
1928 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
1929 built-in FTP client in mhn.
1931 * Added configure check for ushort and ulong. Change code
1932 to use ushort/ulong rather than u_short/u_long.
1934 * A couple of small cleanups in locking code.
1936 * Added configure check for gmtoff element in struct tm.
1938 * Added configure check for tzset.

1942 * Released nmh-0.06.
1944 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
1945 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
1947 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
1948 many such machines around anymore.
1950 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
1951 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
1953 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
1954 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
1956 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1958 * Check lex generated file in zotnet/tws and use
1959 pre-generated version if necessary.
1961 * Released nmh-0.05.
1963 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
1964 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
1965 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
1966 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
1968 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
1969 be linked in one pass.
1971 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1973 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
1974 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
1976 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1978 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
1980 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1982 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
1983 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
1984 become the current folder.
1986 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1988 * Released nmh-0.04.
1990 * Define ospeed and PC in termsbr.c is OS doesn't have
1993 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1995 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
1996 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
1997 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
1999 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2001 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
2002 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
2004 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2006 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
2007 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
2010 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
2011 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
2013 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2015 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
2016 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
2017 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
2018 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
2019 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
2020 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
2022 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2024 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
2025 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
2027 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
2028 a file (currently need to specify full path).
2030 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2032 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
2033 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
2035 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2037 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
2038 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
2039 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
2041 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2043 * Released nmh-0.03.
2045 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
2046 .mh_sequence file existed.
2048 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
2049 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
2051 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
2052 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
2055 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2057 * Changed flist option -unseen to -[no]all. Cleaned up
2060 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2062 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
2063 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
2064 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
2066 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2068 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
2069 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
2070 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
2072 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2074 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL
2075 and allocate its own buffer. Borrowed from zsh.
2077 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
2079 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2081 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
2082 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
2083 directory from where the source code is located.
2085 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2087 * Released nmh-0.02.
2089 Wed Jan 1 17:41:52 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

2094 Tue Dec 31 03:07:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2096 * Changed code to use strerror, rather than using sys_errlist
2097 and sys_nerr directly.

2101 * -compat switch from install-mh removed.
2103 * Changed the default POP port from "pop" to "pop3".
2105 Sat Dec 28 13:25:05 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2107 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
2108 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
2109 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
2110 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
2111 rather than in script.
2113 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2115 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
2117 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with
2118 macro defined on Solaris.
2120 Thu Dec 26 02:50:15 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2122 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
2123 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
2125 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
2126 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
2127 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
2128 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
2131 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2133 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
2134 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.
2136 * Fixed configure test so that termcap variable ospeed is
2139 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2141 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
2143 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included
2144 in mhn.c. Changed md5 to use memset and memcpy.
2146 Fri Dec 20 02:29:37 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2148 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
2149 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
2151 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2153 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
2154 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
2155 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
2156 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
2157 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
2158 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
2160 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2162 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
2164 * Released nmh-0.01.
2166 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
2167 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
2168 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
2171 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2173 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
2176 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2178 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
2179 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
2181 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2183 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
2184 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
2185 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
2186 script to find_program.
2188 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2190 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
2191 speed up -recurse option.
2193 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
2194 yet, but it compiles :-)
2196 * Changed default location for install to
2197 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
2198 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
2199 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
2202 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
2203 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
2204 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
