1 2008-04-11 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
3 * acconfig.h, configure.in, sbr/dtime.c, sbr/pidwait.c,
4 uip/mhshowsbr.c, uip/rcvtty.c, uip/slocal.c, uip/termsbr.c:
5 move most remaining macros out of acconfig.h which is an
6 obsolete feature of autoconf
8 2008-04-05 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
10 * bug #18655: fix use of admonish() for a fatal error (should
11 be adios(); only actual effect would be wrong exit code).
12 Thanks to Craig Leres for spotting this.
14 2008-04-05 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
16 * bug #20028 (Debian bug 399271): fix code assuming that pointer
17 differences were 32 bits -- thanks to Dean Gaudet for the patch.
19 2008-01-25 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
21 * uip/mhshowsbr.c (show_all_messages): Be more generous when parsing
24 2007-11-04 Joel Reicher <joel@panacea.null.org>
26 * Changed done() link overriding to function pointer. Return type
27 is now void so that exit() can be used as done() callback. Dead
28 code return from all done()s removed, with return 1 in main()
29 following done() (should never be reached).
31 2007-08-21 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
33 * Red Hat Bug #253342: inc.c, utils.c, utils.h: When inc is run with
34 the -silent flag, don't exit(1) for no apparent reason.
36 2007-03-12 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
38 * bug #18630, #18631, #18632, #18634: various patches from
39 Craig Leres fixing error message argument problems.
41 2007-03-12 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
43 * bug #15212: configure.in, acconfig.h: remove configure test for
44 broken AT&T vi. This test was broken (it was always returning
45 failure even for non-broken vi implementations) and
46 unfixable. Nobody should be using AT&T vi any more so I have
47 simply moved it back to being a setting you can put manually into
48 acconfig.h if you must.
50 2006-10-24 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
52 * uip/sendsbr.c: with attachformat values of 1 or 2, add
53 name= portion to Content-Type header. This makes them
54 consistent with attachformat value 0. And it allows mhstore
55 to use that (file)name when extracting attachments.
57 2006-08-26 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
59 * configure.in: If we're not using dotlocking, there is no need to set
62 2006-03-30 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
64 * uip/sendsbr.c: with attachformat values of 1 or 2, only
65 generate Content-Disposition headers for MIME attachments, not
66 for the message contents themselves. Microsoft Outlook Build
67 10.0.6626, at least, doesn't show the message contents if they
68 have Content-Disposition.
70 2006-03-09 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
72 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c (decode_rfc2047): Don't close the iconv descriptor
75 2006-03-08 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
77 * (mh_strcasecmp): Rename the private strcasecmp function to
78 mh_strcasecmp. This keeps the newer gnu linker happy.
80 2006-03-05 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
82 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c: don't try to malloc 0 bytes if an RFC2047
83 encoded block is empty
85 2006-03-04 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
87 * etc/Makefile.in: use INSTALL_SCRIPT to install scripts;
88 this allows INSTALL_PROGRAM to be set to 'install -s' so
89 binaries are stripped on installation. Apparently the BSDs
92 2006-02-25 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
94 * uip/sendsbr.c: replaced st_mtim with st_mtime, that's what
95 it should have been. Added #include of h/tws.h to pick up
98 2006-02-20 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
100 * h/mh.h, h/prototypes.h, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, uip/send.c,
101 uip/sendsbr.c, uip/viamail.c, uip/whatnowsbr.c, man/send.man:
102 added -attachformat switch to send, to support alternate MIME
103 header contents when using -attach. See send man page for
106 * man/mhbuild.man: wrapped one appearance of "Content-Disposition"
107 with quotes, to be consistent with others.
109 2006-02-20 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
111 * h/utils.h, sbr/utils.c, uip/flist.c, uip/folder.c: Move duplicate
112 function num_digits into utils.c
114 2006-02-19 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
116 * sbr/m_draft.c, sbr/utils.c, uip/folder.c, uip/inc.c,
117 uip/mhstoresbr.c, uip/popi.c, uip/refile.c: Add create_folder()
118 function, replacing duplicate code during folder creation.
120 2006-02-18 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
122 * h/mime.h, h/mhparse.h, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, uip/mhfree.c,
123 man/mhbuild.man, docs/TODO: added support for an optional
124 Content-Disposition header in mhbuild (only). Its contents
125 are supplied between {}, positioned after the optional [], in
126 a mhbuild directive. If the contents do not contain a
127 "filename=" parameter, and the directive has a filename, or
128 something else that ends with "name=", then that will be used
129 to add a "filename=" parameter to the header.
131 2006-02-12 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
133 * docs/TODO: added RFC2183 to reference of RFC1806 for
134 Content-Disposition header.
136 2006-01-31 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
138 * uip/mhbuild.c, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, man/mhbuild.man: added
139 -nocontentid switch, to disable generation of Content-ID:
140 header in MIME messages. (Also added -contentid for
141 symmetry.) The default configuration of Microsoft Outlook,
142 Build 10.0.3416 in particular, doesn't see attachments in
143 incoming messages if there are Content-ID headers, see
144 http://home.cwru.edu/~wrv/eudoraoutlookfix.html. This allows
145 users to easily accomodate that by adding
146 mhbuild: -nocontentid to their .mh_profile.
148 2006-01-29 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
150 * bug 4360: uip/replsbr.c: remove trailing newlines from components
151 to fix bug with spaces at the end of Subject/References in replies
153 2006-01-18 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
155 * configure.in: use AS_HELP_STRING for formatting help messages
157 * configure.in, sbr/fmt_scan.c: add autoconf magic to support
158 old systems that don't support multibyte character sets
160 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: fix bug with insertion of newline being wrong if
161 the num function was used at the end of the format buffer
163 2006-01-17 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
165 * uip/post.c, uip/spost.c: in make_bcc_file (), use same
166 logic as in finish_headers () to detect whether there is an
167 existing From: line in the draft. If draft_from masquerade
168 flag is enabled, this allows the From: to be obeyed in the
169 Bcc, instead of the old behavior of always replacing it with
172 2006-01-17 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
174 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: more robust multi-byte/column support for field
175 widths, restoring right justification feature
177 2006-01-16 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
179 * h/aliasbr.h, h/rcvmail.h, man/Makefile.in, man/slocal.man,
180 sbr/lock_file.c, uip/aliasbr.c, uip/dropsbr.c, uip/post.c,
181 uip/slocal.c, man/mh-mts.man: remove remnants of code for MMDF
183 * uip/scansbr.c: multiply buffer size by MB_CUR_MAX so multi-byte
186 2006-01-14 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
188 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: Turn the PUTSF macro into a function capable of
189 handling multi column characters.
191 2006-01-07 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
193 * Remove sbr/strerror.c -- strerror(3) is defined in C89.
195 2006-01-06 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
197 * patch #3968: Move the add() function from its own file (add.c) and
198 into utils.c. There was also a duplicate add() function in mf.c which
201 2006-01-02 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
203 * Remove sbr/pwd.c file, moving the pwd() function into sbr/utils.c.
205 2006-01-01 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
207 * patch #3967: Create a mh_xrealloc function to prevent mistakes when
210 2006-01-01 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
212 * patch #3966: Create a mh_xmalloc function to prevent mistakes when
215 2005-12-24 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
217 * Bug #15285: Don't use $< in target rules in makefiles, as POSIX
218 says it's only defined in inference rules. (BSD make was expanding
219 $< to the empty string in the rule for building sbr/dtimep.c, which
220 causes lex to apparently hang because it's reading from stdin.)
222 2005-12-24 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
224 * Completely redo db library checking -- we now check for working
225 (include file, library) pairs rather than checking for headers and
226 libraries separately. We also now provide --with-ndbm=lib and
227 --with-ndbmheader=header options to configure to handle situations
228 where configure's autodetection fails.
230 2005-12-21 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
232 * Fix stupid accidental dependence on a bash quirk in previous
233 configure script change.
235 2005-12-15 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
237 * Improve checking for Berkeley db libraries: configure should now
238 find a suitable library on systems with new gdbm where
239 compatibility functions are in the gdbm_compat library, and on
242 2005-12-13 Michael Forrest <mef@computer.org>
244 * Fedora Bug #163760: sbr/context_read.c (context_read): Ensure that
245 the context is only read once.
247 2005-12-12 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
249 * uip/sendsbr.c (annoaux): Fix the call to annotate() fixing a bug
250 which prevented repl from properly annotating messages.
252 2005-12-07 Jon Steinhart <nmh@fourwinds.com>
254 * Fixed a bug where anno -append put the headers in the wrong place
255 if applied to a message that didn't contain any headers.
257 * Added a special value of "all" to the -number option that causes
258 anno -delete to delete all matching components instead of just
261 * Added new -preserve and -nopreserve options. Using -preserve
262 retains the original last accessed and last modified times on
265 2005-12-05 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
267 * Fedora Bug #174983: configure.in: Fix the AC_PATH_PROG default when
268 vi isn't found during build.
270 2005-11-19 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
272 * bug #14977: sbr/context_read.c: special case an MHCONTEXT of
273 "/dev/null" and don't try to lock it.
275 * bug #9228, debian bug #146449: man/mh-profile.man: make it clearer
276 that lower case environment variables (and in particular mheditor)
277 are internal to nmh and not intended to be set by the user.
279 2005-11-09 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
281 * sbr/mf.c: fix buffer overrun with absurdly long addresses
282 (only causes crashes if scan is run with '-width 16536' or similar)
284 * bug #7917: sbr/context_foil.c, sbr/context_read.c,
285 sbr/context_save.c: mark 'no context' with NULL rather than
286 "/dev/null" so we don't inadvertently try to lock /dev/null (which
287 takes up to a minute in some locking configurations and makes post
290 * patch #3913: uip/post.c: pass some globals into sm_init() so that
291 it uses SASL if necessary. (This bug was preventing Bcc'd emails
292 from being sent via SASL authenticated SMTP.)
294 * bug #9813: uip/rmf.c: don't crash if there's no Current-Folder
295 entry in the context file.
297 2005-11-13 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
299 * bug #7833: uip/Makefile.in: remove link to install-mh that caused
300 problems on some systems
302 * bug #739: Makefile.in: install target now depends on all to avoid
303 problem on case-insensitive file systems with the INSTALL file
305 2005-11-10 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
307 * Fedora Bug #172838: configure.in: Fix the AC_PATH_PROG default when
308 sendmail isn't found during build.
310 2005-11-09 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
312 * h/aliasbr.h: fix a non-ANSI prototype.
314 2005-11-08 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
316 * Simon Burge: acconfig.h, configure.in, uip/rcvtty.c, uip/slocal.c:
317 fix to handle getutent() on NetBSD
319 * INSTALL, README, docs/README.about, man/nmh.man: update most
320 references to the web page and mailing list locations
322 * bug #10230: etc/Makefile.in, man/Makefile.in, uip/Makefile.in:
323 Michael De La Rue: prepend DESTDIR to install locations
325 * configure.in, */Makefile.in, mts/smtp/smtp.c: replace obsolete
328 2005-11-06 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
330 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, sbr/fmt_scan.c, h/prototypes.h: fix various
331 possible overruns of the buffers in fmt_scan() which would cause
332 crashes if scan was run with '-width 16536' or similar.
334 * uip/popsbr.c: fix compile error which only showed up if nmh
335 was configured with --enable-apop.
337 * Debian Bug# 245932, RedHat Bug# 172388: uip/mhparse.c: don't
338 crash when handling a multipart MIME message with an invalid
339 Content-Type header (file handle was being fclose()d twice).
341 * sbr/Makefile.in: adjust lex command to work on both old and
342 new versions of flex.
344 * configure.in: add an AC_PREREQ() so autoconf 2.13 gives a helpful
345 error message and the Debian autoconf-version-guessing wrapper
346 doesn't guess wrongly.
348 2005-11-02 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
350 * Debian Bug# 320069: Nick Rusnov: uip/popsbr.c: fail when
351 kpop connection attempted without KPOP support compiled in
353 * Debian Bug# 320090: Nick Rusnov: sbr/Makefile.in: fix for newer
354 version of flex and remove autogenerated file from cvs
356 * patch #1155: uip/flist.c: speed up flist by skipping stat on
357 files with numbers as names
359 * docs/Makefile.in: include new files in distribution
361 2005-10-11 Bill Wohler <wohler@newt.com>
363 * docs/FAQ: fold questions into MH FAQ and distribute that instead
365 2005-10-05 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
367 * Harald Geyer: h/mh.h, uip/replsbr.c: back out previous change
368 (fork/vfork) and replace with code that handles the issue directly
370 2005-05-18 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
372 * Debian Bug# 143485: Nick Rusnov: h/mh.h: use fork instead of
375 * Debian Bug# 261592: Harald Geyer: uip/mhlsbr.c, uip/replsbr.c:
376 test/report error writing to stdout
378 * mts/smtp/smtp.c, uip/popsbr.c: correct SASL include file locations
380 * docs/COMPLETION-BASH: bash completion definitions from Debian
382 * patch #2863: savannah@brisammon.fastmail.fm: sbr/folder_read.c:
383 fix a bug affecting AFS where nmh was setting the READONLY flag
384 for a folder even when you do have write access to the folder
386 * Carl Mummert: h/fmt_compile.h, man/mh-format.man,
387 sbr/fmt_compile.c, sbr/fmt_scan.c: add unquote() function for
388 removing quotes from RFC-2822 encoded headers
390 2005-02-23 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
392 * use iconv to convert RFC-2047 encoded headers to the
393 character set used by the current locale
395 * sbr/folder_read.c fix Debian bug #202667: crash when a
396 message's filename overflows an int when converted
398 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
399 versions (from automake 1.9.5)
401 2005-02-21 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
403 * sbr/getpass.c fix bug where inc crashed on failing to reopen
406 2005-01-27 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
408 * Added -proxy option to inc and msgchk. Based on old patch
409 from Michael Richardson.
411 * On systems where it is available, use nl_langinfo to get the
412 character set if MM_CHARSET is unset
414 2005-01-21 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
416 * sbr/check_charset.c US-ASCII is a subset of UTF-8 so can be
417 handled directly when UTF-8 is being used
419 2004-12-17 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
421 * uip/mhmisc.c Fix -part option to mhshow/mhlist/mhstore to
422 find sub-parts of the specified part
424 2004-11-19 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
426 * h/prototypes.h, sbr/folder_addmsg.c, uip/mhstoresbr.c,
427 uip/rcvstore.c, uip/refile.c: Added mail directory argument to
428 folder_addmsg in order to make it possible to provide a path to
429 the ext_hook call that is mailpath-based. A problem existed when
430 a folder was a symbolic link and the pwd call would return the
431 path relative to the filesystem, not to mailpath. A new argument
432 was needed because there was otherwise no reasonable way to get
435 2004-11-16 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
437 * sbr/folder_pack.c: Fixed problem where the refile hook was being
438 called after a message was renamed so that it wasn't around for
439 the hook. The hook is now called before the message file is
442 * sbr/folder_addmsg.c: Fixed wrong directory for hook when
443 refiling with -src option.
445 2004-10-15 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
447 * uip/sortm.c: Fixed calling of external hooks.
449 2004-10-12 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
451 * uip/inc.c: Fixed another weird bug caused by the static
452 mailpath being overwritten.
454 * uip/sendsbr.c: Fixed bug that caused anno to mangle headers.
456 * sbr/lock_file.c: Fixed strange bug that prevented a lock from
457 ever being obtained if getting it failed the first time. The
458 problem was that the string of XXXXXX that is required by
459 mkstemp() was overwritten the first time through, and so all
460 subsequent times failed because mkstemp() failed. The fix
461 reinitializes the tmp file string.
463 * uip/inc.c: Fixed bug in which the static maildir was overwritted
464 if a format string was read from the profile.
466 * sbr/folder_delmsgs.c: Fixed bug that was producing an incorrect
467 path for the external hook.
469 2003-10-06 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
471 * uip/slocal.c, configure.in: db configuration fix for Debian; yet
472 another location for ndbm.
474 2003-09-30 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
476 * Fix 'pick' so handling of options "-list" and "-seq" are
478 * Fix 'inc' realloc error when bringing in more than 100 msgs
480 * Patches submitted by Nick Rusnov from Debian archive applied:
483 136976 - Handle binary content messages
484 143427 - mh-format.man typo
485 144098 - 'spost; should have same behavior as 'post'
486 w.r.t. mts.conf masquerade line
487 149745 - slocal ignores 'N' result of previous command
488 152728 - increase SMTP timeouts to conform to RFC 1123
489 The timeouts suggested by the RFC seem long
490 to me - but the RFC is still listed as active.
491 181867 - typo for nmh.man
493 2003-08-10 Jeffrey C Honig <jch@honig.net>
495 * Fix problem where parsing of address/date fields in fmt_compile
496 is optimized to the first instance. The first instance may be in
497 contitional code which will result in cached data to
498 be used. Instead, convert c_flags to a flags field from a boolean
499 and parse on the first use.
500 * Remove some unused flag bits.
502 Fri Jul 01 22:02:00 2003 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
504 * Applied fixes for configuration problems with Solaris and
505 systems with gdbm instead of db1 (includes bug #2024)
507 #578 - repl leaks umask
508 #1393 - sortm core dumps
509 #1650 - msh leaks file descriptors
510 #1730 - Double free() in mhfree.c:free_encoding()
511 #3356 - In-Reply-To header in default replcomps should be
513 * Revised man page for mh-format (bug #2031)
514 * New replcomps, etc, with Fcc: +outbox in default versions
516 Sat Mar 17 03:18:15 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
518 * Ken Hornstein's configure.in Cyrus SASL checks were doing
519 `x"$with_cyrus_sasl" != "no"' instead of `... != x"no"'.
521 Tue Mar 06 21:04:27 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
523 * Found some historical information about MH in RFC 808.
524 Supplemented it with info from Jerry Peek's MH book and added it
525 to docs/README.about.
527 Tue Feb 6 20:35:40 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
529 * sbr/dtime.c Use the same Y2K correction code as dtimep.lex
531 * sbr/dtimep.lex Restrict the parser to accept either
532 a numerical timezone offset, or a symbolic one (e.g. EST),
533 but not both (Since "2000 -400 EDT" might cause a double
534 subtraction of 60 minutes if both are parsed. One should be
537 Mon Feb 05 20:22:54 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
539 * -L isn't sufficient for specifying the path of the Cyrus SASL
540 shared library. That'll allow us to link successfully, but on
541 many/most OSes that won't allow us to find libsasl at runtime. On
542 Solaris, we need to specify the library path with -R as well (or
543 else the user will have to use the $LD_LIBRARY_PATH kludge, which
544 is considered harmful). This fix should be extended to other OSes
547 * Print whether we have SASL support in the "nmh configuration"
548 summary configure prints out.
550 * Say in README.developers to use `\date' in case anyone is like
551 me and has `date' aliased in their shell to use a nonstandard (but
552 subjectively more readable) format.
554 Thu Jan 25 21:15:52 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
556 * man/mh-chart.man has updated synposes of
559 Tue Jan 23 20:26:15 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
561 * etc/digestcomps tried to force dates into a
562 19xx when it's not necessary.
564 Fri Jan 19 21:22:08 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
566 * First round of manpage updates finished. They
567 are standardized on -man macros, with minimal
570 * man/tmac.h.in is no longer needed, since the
571 manpages do not depend on them anymore. Note:
572 strict "man" programs that didn't allow ".so"
573 sourcing outside the man tree will now format
574 the man pages correctly.
576 * man/vmh.1 is no longer built, since uip/vmh isn't
578 Tue Jan 9 6:01:22 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
580 * Finished manpages ali-prev
582 * Removed deprecated files from the repository.
583 Specifically, those rooted in zotnet/ and mts/sendmail
584 mts/mmdf. "cvs update -dP" will give a pruned directory
587 * Updated docs/Makefile.in to include README.manpages, and
588 uip/Makefile.in to include popi.c (which isn't being built,
589 though). This allows "make nmhdist" to create an archive that
590 is file-for-file identical to the current cvs repository.
592 Sun Dec 31 20:48:50 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
594 * Create docs/README.manpages, which details
595 the formatting rules I've been using.
599 Sat Dec 30 9:50:13 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
601 * Created a new file "DATE" to hold the date
602 of the most recent nmh release. This date will be
603 used in the manpages.
605 * Updated docs/README.developers to add the step
606 of updating DATE. Also, updated configure to
607 read in the contents of the file as the variable
610 * Started work on updating man pages, with only
611 ali finished so far. Changes: 1) no dependence
612 on an external macro file, 2) uses only
613 -man macros (although I may be mistaken in this),
614 3) syntax in the SYNOPSIS is a little more
615 in line with standard UNIX documentation, such as
616 bold flags and italicized parameters.
618 Sun Dec 24 10:06:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
620 * Updated INSTALL with information about the
621 --with-locking option.
623 * Fixed the Hesiod tests in configure.in. In
624 systems where res_send was in -lresolv, this
625 information was not being communicated to the
626 HESIOD_LIBS var. Now, if res_send is not found
627 in the default libraries, it's assumed to be
628 in -lresolv, and thus -lresolv is appended to
629 HESIOD_LIBS, which will need that to avoid
630 undefined symbols problems.
632 * Fixed the Kerberos tests in configure.in. New
633 versions of Kerberos 5 have renamed -lcrypto
634 to -lk5crypto (circa krb5 1.1 or thereabouts). The
635 new test tries to determine if -lk5crypto exists. If so,
636 this is a new krb5 system. If not, test for -lcrypto
637 and the rest of old krb5. If that fails, look
638 for a genuine krb4 installation.
640 Fri Dec 22 22:08:51 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
642 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in msgchk.man.
643 -snoop was documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
645 Fri Dec 22 23:42:16 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
647 * Made a new ./configure option called
648 "--with-locking" that allows the file
649 locking mechanism to be chosen there instead of
650 requiring a manual edit of config.h.
652 * If the option is not explicitly set, or an
653 invalid option is specified, "dot" locking is
654 chosen. Valid options are "dot", "fcntl",
655 "flock", and "lockf". We need a way to tell
656 the user that these are the valid options, and
657 change the flag "--with-locking" if it's not
660 Fri Dec 22 19:21:29 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
662 * Remove the lex-specific memory hints at the
663 beginning of sbr/dtimep.lex. We've already
664 committed to supporting flex only, since
665 lex does not easily allow us to parse a single
666 string, as well as other problems documented
667 below and on nmh-workers.
669 * Added a switch statement to configure.in to
670 test for Mac OS X. If this is the case, LDFLAGS
671 should not contain "-s" since the linker rejects
674 * Updated MACHINES to include Mac OS X Public Beta,
675 as well as Linux 2.4 running glibc 2.2.
677 Wed Dec 20 16:00:46 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
679 * Marked deprecated directories in docs/README.developers
680 as deprecated, with pointers to the new code location.
681 Eventually these deprecated directories should go away.
683 Tue Dec 19 19:16:37 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
685 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in inc.man. -snoop was
686 documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
688 Thu Dec 14 14:32:09 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
690 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
691 versions on ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/config, dated
692 12-07-00. This should prevent configure from failing
693 on newer operating systems because config.{guess,sub}
694 couldn't correctly identify them.
696 Thu Dec 14 1:30:44 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
698 * Fixed the circular dependency created when I moved
699 zotnet/mts to mts/generic and merged them into libmts.
700 mts/generic/client.c and mts/generic/mts.c are now in sbr/
701 (and thus in libmh), which makes libmh self-contained and
702 not depending on an external archive.
704 * All include statements now look for mts.h in h/. The
705 Makefiles and configure script have been modified so that
706 mts/generic is no longer built.
708 Mon Dec 11 22:08:07 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
710 * When Shantonu made the new libmts.a, he swapped $(MTSLIB) and
711 libmh.a in sbr/Makefile.in so that libmh.a comes first, but this
712 causes the build to fail on Solaris, because libmts.a has to get
713 ruserpass() out of libmh.a. Swapping them back to the way Ken
714 Hornstein's patch (which I applied on Jul 20) put them, with
715 libmh.a correctly coming second. If there are times when libmts.a
716 needs to come second, then it would appear there's a circular
717 dependency and someone (Shantonu?) did an mts merge incorrectly.
719 Fri Sep 8 01:36:23 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
721 * Took out bad time textual time zones like BST and JST.
722 I found them online somewhere, but am not sure if they're
725 Fri Sep 8 00:36:48 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
727 * Moved zotnet/mts to mts/generic. This code reorganization
728 makes the entire zotnet tree deprecated -- bboards is unneeded,
729 mf was was moved to sbr, tws was rewritten and moved to sbr, and
732 * Created a new static library called libmts.a used during
733 compilation which includes the generic mts code and the
734 smtp/sendmail code. This supercedes the functionality of the
735 old libsmtp.a and the remains of libzot.a.
737 * Updated header includes to reference the new location of mts.h
738 in mts/generic/mts.h. Also, update the configure and top-level
739 Makefile not to descend into zotnet. Also, they don't descend
740 into mts/mmdf and mts/sendmail (the sendmail code has been
741 merged into the smtp code).
743 * Added #include <h/nmh.h> to h/md5.h, since my compile was
744 complaining about implicitly-declared memcpy and memset, which
745 appear to be in strings.h. In any event, nmh.h should take care
748 * When doing a "make nmhdist", notice that the generated
749 snapshot does not include zotnet of the mts directories as noted
750 above. Since they are no longer compiled, and I don't see any
751 obvious code path to get to them, end-users should probably
752 not need them. If you think otherwise, turn Makefile generation
753 back on in configure.in and turn on recursion into those dirs
754 in the appropriate Makefile.in
756 Wed Sep 6 22:40:03 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
758 * Tracked down the problem in the new dtimep where time
759 zones were being radically misreported. It was because the
760 parser knew about military time zones (such as M or E) but in
761 some cases did not know about the textual representation of
762 some zones (like MET). When it encountered one of these, the
763 date parser misread MET as the military time zone T (well, first
764 zone M, then E, and finally T). I took military zones out, and
765 things seem much better. Also, the default behavior of parsing
766 time zones appears to default to GMT in the absence of better
767 info, which is less bogus than assuming the mail came from the
768 current time zone, which was the behavior in 1.04.
770 Thu Aug 10 13:22:13 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
772 * Decided that limiting the message number columns to 3 on my
773 scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD (to try to regain space taken by
774 extra date info) was ill-conceived. It's not that tough to get
775 past 999 messages, though I imagine it's rather rare to exceed
776 9999. Changed these to 4. Also put the "replied / encrypted"
777 column back in YYYYMMDD -- I've never seen it show anything but a
778 space, but that space is useful if you use scan, grep, and awk
779 (with the default field separator) to grab message numbers (I know
780 -- pick should really be used for these purposes...).
782 Mon Aug 7 20:11:09 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
784 * Modify umask set by mhshow to enable user execute bit, so that
785 viewers that create temporary directories (e.g., lynx) will be
788 Thu Aug 03 17:14:08 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
790 * TODO: Allow multiple simultaneous differing contexts, probably
791 each tied to a parent (terminal) process.
793 Tue Aug 1 10:48:05 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
795 * Makefile install rules should not look for generated files in
796 the source tree -- this will happen to work when configuring and
797 building inside the source tree but will fail when using an
798 external build tree. Fixed etc/Makefile.in.
800 Mon Jul 24 16:20:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
802 * When Shantonu wrote the new, more portable dtimep.lex, he left
803 out the #ifdef DSTXXX stuff for some reason. Not a good idea, as
804 that code is required for proper printing of numeric-offset
805 timezones that have daylight saving time. Without that code,
806 -0700 during DST gets printed as MST instead of PDT.
808 * Renamed DSTXXX as ADJUST_NUMERIC_ONLY_TZ_OFFSETS_WRT_DST and
809 added an explanatory comment by its #definition.
811 * Updated README.developers with the fact that zotnet/tws is going away.
813 Thu Jul 20 20:30:52 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
815 * Moved Kimmo's new "--with-hash-backup" to be output with the
816 rest of the --with options in the configure --help output. Also,
817 people did not preserve my alphabetization of the --with options
818 when they added new ones. Re-alphabetized.
820 * One more pass at README.developers now that it's clear that my
821 previously-suggested one-line autoconf-file commit can cause
822 unnecessary local makes and an out-of-sync stamp-h.in file, but
823 would not cause problems for other people using the CVS files.
825 * Ken Hornstein's SASL patch was not integrated properly with
826 Ruud's new merged mts/sendmail code. Kimmo has since fixed nmh so
827 it compiles, but according to Ken, the SASL stuff still does not
828 work. Integrating a patch from him for this.
830 * Last pass at README.developers -- Kimmo's 5-step commit was
831 overkill. You only need 3 steps, since configure.in is the only
832 autoconf file with the RCS $Id keyword.
834 * Applied Kurt J. Lidl <lidl@eng.us.uu.net>'s $MAILHOST patch:
836 I have a small patch that would be nice to be included --
837 basically, it allows the usage of the "MAILHOST" environment
838 variable, without having to have HESIOD turned on. I need
839 this functionality for my environment, where we have identical
840 /usr/local on all my machines (so I cannot just hardcode into
841 the mts.conf file), and I have multiple POP mail servers for
844 Modified inc.man to reflect that along with "pophost:" and -host,
845 $MAILHOST can now activate POP mail inclusion as well.
847 * Fixed warnings from diff on first-time install of nmh. Also
848 added 'echo's clarifying the etc file installation activities.
850 Tue Jul 18 19:36:59 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
852 * Added the answer to Dan's question in README.developers.
854 Mon Jul 17 19:10:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
856 * Clarified and made some corrections to Kimmo's README.developers
857 changes (BTW, if anyone can explain why the RCS Ids are able to cause
858 problems with the dependencies, please fill in the explanation --
859 I never encountered a problem with the old single-commit method).
861 Sat Jul 15 23:13:49 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
863 * Add configure option --with-hash-backup so the backup prefix can
864 be easily changed from "," to "#".
866 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that it works with any make.
868 * Use mkstemp in sbr/lock_file.c.
870 * Commits of autoconf-related files apparently can't all be done
871 in one shot due to RCS Ids changing when committing -- updated
874 Tue Jul 11 14:18:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
876 * Clarified post.man and send.man for those not completely up on
877 SASL terminology. "SASL encryption layers are not supported for
878 SMTP" means that encryption is supported for the authentication
879 but not for the subsequent data stream.
881 Sat Jul 8 01:36:19 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
883 * Applied Ken Hornstein <kenh@cmf.nrl.navy.mil>'s patches
884 implementing SASL support for POP3 and SMTP. If nmh is compiled
885 with SASL support, using the -sasl switch on the inc, msgchk,
886 post, and send commands will enable authentication encryption for
887 SMTP, and both authentication and data stream encryption for POP3.
889 Sat Jun 10 18:37:59 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
891 * Merged mts/sendmail functionality into mts/smtp; switching between
892 smtp and sendmail delivery method is now controlled by mts.conf.
894 * If tsort cannot deal with loops, in addition to defining tsort as
895 cat, also define lorder as echo.
897 * Removed uip/popi.c from list of sources.
899 Thu Jun 08 19:36:57 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
901 * New dtimep.lex didn't parse day names properly. Fixed. Also
902 clarified ambiguous comments preceding day_map[] array (from old
903 dtimep.lex) that probably led to the erroneous cp++ being added.
905 Wed Jun 7 20:52:33 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
907 * Added one more mkstemp invocation to uip/spost.c (which was in a
910 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to clean up permissions handling
911 and error handling in uip/inc.c.
913 Mon Jun 5 22:10:07 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
915 * Use cat instead of tsort if tsort cannot deal with loops in its
916 input (which is the case for tsort from GNU textutils).
918 Mon Jun 5 21:14:36 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
920 * If lockfile is present, and its dotlockfile program is setgid,
921 inc does not need to be setgid.
923 Sun Jun 4 21:35:40 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
925 * Added autoconf test for Miquel van Smoorenburg's liblockfile
926 library, as found on Debian systems.
928 * Added liblockfile support to sbr/lock_file.c.
930 Wed May 31 7:19:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
932 * Fixed up dtimep.lex a bit. Added back memory options for AIX to
933 increase available memory. Took out %option noyywrap, which
934 wasn't understood by AT&T lex, as well as the -i
935 case-insensitivity flag.
937 Wed May 31 07:40:45 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
939 * Added a lint target to the Makefiles and a check in autoconf
940 to determine whether lint or lclint exists on the system.
942 Fri May 30 19:21:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
944 * etc/Makefile.in was incorrectly installing mts.conf.in and
945 sendfiles.in -- fixed. Generated sendfiles script was not a
946 dependency of the `all' target, and was incorrectly included in
947 the distribution. Changed the suffix for the backed-up previous
948 versions of the etc files from the ambiguous .old to .prev. Added
949 call to diff -- only keep the .prev files around if different from
950 the newly-installed versions (intentionally didn't redirect output
951 to /dev/null so you'll notice when your changed versions are
952 getting moved aside).
954 * INSTALL never documented the etc/*.old thing. Documented the
955 new etc/*.prev thing (including a note to watch for diff output).
957 * Applied Alec Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu>'s dropsbr.c patch:
959 In the map_write routine, a call is made to map_open and this
960 call is supposed to set the "clear" variable to 0 or 1,
961 depending on whether the map file is empty or not. In
962 mh6.8.3, this worked because map_open would set "clear" by
963 calling the mbx_Xopen routine. In nmh, the code for mbx_Xopen
964 was merged into mbx_open, but the interface for mbx_open
965 doesn't support the clear variable, so that functionality was
966 lost. The map_open interface still contains "int *clear" in
967 the prototype, but never sets it.
969 My patch eliminates "clear" from the map_open interface (I
970 checked to make sure that map_write is the only client of
971 map_open). Furthermore, my patch also sets the "clear"
972 variable properly at the beginning of map_write by calling
973 fstat(). This eliminates the bug in that the value of "clear"
974 being used later in the routine was just stack garbage.
976 Having a bad value of clear causes this next bug to be
977 triggered: The fp file pointer was being opened with fdopen,
978 but in two of the three switch cases it wasn't being closed.
979 In certain cases, this was causing packf to run out of file
980 descriptors if you attempted to pack a large folder.
982 Mon May 29 7:48:15 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
984 * Moved the date parsing routines from zotnet/tws to sbr/ (and
985 tws.h to h/). Updated all source files to reflect to new location
988 * Rewrote dparsetime (in dtimep.lex -> dtimep.c) to replace the
989 old zotnet/tws/dtimep.c, dtimep.lex, lexstring.c, lexedit.c, and
990 dtimep.c-lexed. It should now work with flex (although untested
991 with lex), and requires no sed-ing. For now, I have the lexed
992 version in the distribution, so that end-users don't need to worry
993 about running it through flex/lex. I have not added back support
994 for guessing the time zone when it's not specified.
996 Sun May 28 17:44:15 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
998 * Added autoconf check for getutent().
1000 * Changed uip/rcvtty.c and uip/slocal.c to use getutent() and
1001 friends. Since I can only check on Linux, please check if
1002 this works on other systems.
1004 Sun May 28 14:58:49 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1006 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to uip/scansbr.c for more
1007 checks for write failures.
1009 * Unlink temporary file properly in uip/rcvtty.c.
1011 * Moved viamail from bindir to libdir.
1013 * Changed sendfiles into sendfiles.in, so that path to viamail
1016 * Added gzip support to sendfiles.
1018 * Added References header to replcomps and replgroupcomps.
1020 Sun May 28 14:39:31 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1022 * Fixed m_getfld bug which caused segmentation faults when
1023 incorporating messages which ended in multiple linefeeds crossing
1026 Fri May 26 13:21:59 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1028 * msh has been unable to show MIME messages ever since 1.0. Alec
1029 Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu> tracked down the problem to the
1030 -show flag being passed to mhshow. mhshow is equivalent to the
1031 old mhn -show, so we don't need the -show anymore. Removed it.
1033 Fri May 12 02:51:21 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1035 * zotnet/bboards is not longer built by default. Goal is to move
1036 the assorted functions in zotnet into sbr or some more logical
1039 * Moved zotnet/mf to sbr, and changed mf.h references accordingly,
1040 as well as Makefiles.
1042 Thu May 11 02:21:34 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1044 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that both SRCS and OBJS aren't
1045 seperately and redundantly defined, but so that OBJS is a
1046 pattern-substituted version of SRCS with suffix .c -> .o. This
1047 should make maintainability easier.
1049 * Added section to MACHINES indicating what platforms nmh is known
1050 to compile and work on, just to give users peace of mind, or
1051 something. This is by no means complete or exhaustive, so add
1052 whatever you know works.
1054 Tue May 09 20:38:04 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1056 * Alphabetized Shantonu's $pop_kinds output on configure's "pop is
1057 enabled" line. If POP3 is the only kind of POP enabled, say so,
1058 rather than just saying "yes" (which is ambiguous).
1060 * Fixed four warnings in Shantonu's new getpass.c. Needed to
1061 #include <stdlib.h> for calloc(), <unistd.h> for ttyname(), and
1062 "h/mh.h" for adios(). Also changed ch from char to int to get rid
1063 of "comparison is always 1 due to limited range of data type" on EOF.
1065 * Added steps to README.developers saying to change the version
1066 number to X.Y.Z+dev. Did a little rearranging and changed the FTP
1067 dir from /home/ftp to /var/ftp to reflect Doug's new machine.
1069 * Changed configure.in to use gcc -Wall even without
1070 --enable-debug, to prevent developers compiling optimized from
1071 introducing warnings, and to give end-users a warm, fuzzy feeling
1072 as they (hopefully) see no warnings come out (except perhaps on
1073 the lex output file) even with -Wall.
1075 * Renamed getpass() to nmh_getpass() since the prototype for
1076 getpass() varies from OS to OS, and we want to _always_ use our
1077 version of the function. Fixed all the callers to use
1078 nmh_getpass() and added it to prototypes.h. Semi-arbitrarily
1079 upped MAX_PASSWORD_LEN from 128 to 256. buf was being calloc()'d
1080 and the memory leaked -- should have just been declared as static
1081 char array. Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the
1082 copyright message, as this version has been changed significantly
1083 from the BSD version.
1085 * Added "nmh-local functions to use in preference to OS versions"
1086 section to README.developers (currently just says to use
1087 nmh_getpass() instead of system getpass()).
1089 * Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the copyright message
1090 in ruserpass.c also.
1092 * Added mts.conf.5 page per Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s
1095 This happens on solaris:
1098 windex entry incorrect: mts.conf(5) not found.
1099 No manual entry for mts.conf.
1103 % echo ".so man5/mh-tailor.5" > mts.conf.5
1105 done in the man5 directory. We need to add 'mts.conf.5' as a
1106 reference sourcing mh-tailor.5.
1108 Mon May 08 23:51:55 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1110 * Doug informed me that the way I had restored the "lost" version
1111 histories was wrong, because `cvs checkout's of old versions of
1112 nmh wouldn't work properly. It occurs to me that this could be
1113 fixed by simply deleting those tags in the new-location *,v files,
1114 but oh well. I'm putting everything back to the way Doug
1115 originally had it. To get the old version history for a file that
1116 used to be in the top directory, you'll need to "blindly" do a
1117 `cvs log' there (even though you won't have a local copy of the
1118 file in that directory). `cvs diff' will no longer be able to
1119 diff pre-move versions vs. post-move versions -- you'll have to do
1120 a lot of manual gyrations with `cvs checkout' and then use `diff'.
1122 * I had alphabetized the --configure options in the --help output
1123 awhile back, but Shantonu added --enable-apop just under
1124 --enable-pop. Put it in alphabetical order and clarified what
1125 --enable-apop does vs. --enable-pop and --with-krb4. Also changed
1126 --with-mts help line from "mail transport agent" to "mail
1127 transport agent/service" so the 's' in "mts" doesn't seem to come
1130 * Added two steps to "releasing nmh" in README.developers. After
1131 making the tarball, it's a good idea to diff the tree vs. the CVS
1132 tree to make sure no files got left out, and then to chown the
1133 files so that they're owned by root, preventing a Trojaning attack
1134 by a malicious remote user with a UID matching yours.
1136 * Changed DIFFERENCES to say that RPOP is not currently supported
1137 rather than implying it by saying that APOP, KPOP, and POP[3] are.
1139 Sun May 07 18:16:43 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1141 * Imported NetBSD version of getpass() and made extensive
1142 revisions for compatibility with programs that pipe the password
1143 to stdin, such as exmh.
1145 * Removed tests for system ruserpass() which sometimes gave
1146 phantom positive results. Also, bext to use internal functions if
1147 we ever want to change .netrc format to something else, or access
1150 Sat May 06 08:28:09 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1152 * Restored lost version histories for those moved files by doing a
1153 manual `mv' in the CVSROOT on mhost. CVS badly needs a `cvs mv'
1154 command so that you can move files (without having physical access
1155 to the CVSROOT) without losing versioning. Put MACHINES back at
1156 the top level as it needs to be read before building. Fixed DIST
1157 variable in {.,docs}/Makefile.in to reflect that and to add
1158 missing entry for "INSTALL" file.
1160 Sat May 06 13:13:07 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1162 * Re-cleaned up nmh documentation (by moving things to docs
1163 subdir) and modified Makefile & configure.in to handle the change.
1165 Mon Apr 17 21:28:40 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1167 * Scott Blachowicz pointed out that the configure --help output
1168 for --enable-masquerade was misleading. Clarified.
1170 Mon Apr 17 19:01:00 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1172 * APOP support can be compiled in to inc and msgchk using
1175 * To access an APOP host, specify -apop on the command line
1176 along with any -host or -user option.
1178 Fri Apr 14 23:10:44 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1180 * Upped the version number to 1.0.4+dev until the next nmh release.
1182 * Added a "releasing nmh" section to README.developers, while the
1183 process was fresh in my mind.
1185 Fri Apr 14 18:21:34 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1187 * Added new files README.developers, ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6, and
1188 ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html to DIST target in Makefile.in.
1190 * Released nmh-1.0.4.
1192 Tue Apr 11 21:37:03 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1194 * Applied Brian Campbell <bacam@tardis.ed.ac.uk>'s mhn.defaults.sh
1197 It appears that there shouldn't be quotes around the %s in the
1198 iso-8859-1 charset entry; xterm passes the remaining arguments
1199 to the program, quoting them means that xterm thinks they're
1200 part of the program's name.
1202 This %s isn't the same as the "Insert content subtype" one from
1203 mhshow-show-* -- it doesn't come from MIME headers and is safe not
1206 Sun Apr 09 13:03:59 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1208 * added check in fmt_compile() to handle a single-character
1209 format string. fmt_compile() depends on having an array of
1210 format characters with an empty item at the end. A
1211 single-character format would cause programs using this
1212 function to segfault because the algorithm used to decide on
1213 the length of the array mistakenly created a single-item array
1214 when the format string was one character. This eventually
1215 caused problems when the program attempted to test item+1
1218 Thu Apr 06 21:53:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1220 * Richard Coleman threw out a lot of old MH-specific files in nmh.
1221 Much of the stuff, indeed, is not worth saving, but there are
1222 nuggets that are very worthwhile, and should probably be added
1223 back in. Most important, IMHO, are the MH change logs, as they
1224 can help answer questions like "Why is this code like this?" or
1225 "How long has this been broken?" or "What was this ever used for?"
1227 I've added a new file to the nmh tree called
1228 ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6. It's cobbled together from the
1229 mh-6.8.4/papers/mh*/MHCHANGES files. I've re-ordered the entries
1230 to go from newest at the top to oldest at the bottom to match the
1231 ChangeLog convention. Unfortunately there are no change logs for
1232 versions of MH prior to 3 in the MH tar files available at
1233 <ftp://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/mh>. Also, it appears to me that there
1234 are MH-6.6 changes that aren't documented in the logs.
1236 I've also added ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html. This is
1237 based on mh-6.8.4/papers/changes/mh-changes.ms. The nroff format
1238 and its "catman"-type output are a pain to deal with, but I was
1239 loath to throw away the formatting, so I converted the file to
1240 HTML. The only actual markup in the body are the "<B>" and "<U>"
1241 tags, and "<" and ">" instead of '<' and '>', so it's quite
1242 doable to view the file in plain ASCII mode as well. Note that
1243 some of the changes this file documents as having been made in
1244 MH-6.8.4 may not be present in nmh -- Richard started with 6.8.3
1245 and later put in certain 6.8.4 stuff.
1247 Wed Apr 05 21:09:28 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1249 * Applied Eric Schnoebelen <eric@cirr.com>'s mhshowsbr.c patch
1250 fixing apparent bugs in Dan Winship's new security quoting code:
1252 Since upgrading, I've been getting the following errors
1253 while attempting to process some MIME messages:
1255 (1) Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
1260 (2) line 1/10 (END)Segmentation fault (core dumped)
1262 (2) appears to be due to the testing of an unset pointer in
1263 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux(). (1) appears to be caused by
1264 mis-quoting a filename being handed to the shell in
1265 mhshowsbr.c:show_content_aux().
1267 Resolving the pointer reference issue in
1268 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux() turned up a similar mis-quoting
1269 problem in the routine.
1271 Tue Mar 28 16:17:39 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1273 * Applied Todd.Miller@courtesan.com's patch to dropsbr.c to
1274 prevent core dumping on packf. Here's the note from his message:
1276 Since sizeof(buffer) == sizeof(tmpbuffer) packf will dump
1277 core on a file w/o a From line with a line >= BUFSIZ.
1278 I noticed this because I had a junk file in my mail
1281 Fri Mar 17 11:59:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1283 * wesley.craig@umich.edu did not document his previous KPOP patch,
1284 so I did so, and asked him to check what I wrote. Unfortunately
1285 he didn't notice my misunderstanding of his patch. I wrote that
1286 if you #define POPSERVICE "kpop", inc and msgchk will use KPOP
1287 exclusively, but if you leave it as "pop3", you can use Wesley's
1288 new -kpop switch on a given invocation. Instead, however, -kpop
1289 turned out to be necessary on every invocation, and a KPOP user
1290 complained. Applied Wesley's new patch, which makes things work
1291 like I thought his original patch did. After that, did one more
1292 clarifying pass to the documentation in inc.man and msgchk.man.
1294 Wed Mar 15 18:45:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1296 * When I fixed the long-standing makedir() bugs in January, I had
1297 the code call strtoul(..., 0), which I believed to be safe as all
1298 modes specified as ASCII constants in the nmh code started with a
1299 leading zero (signifying octal), which I did as it would work if
1300 internal constants were ever changed to hex. Unfortunately I was
1301 unaware of the "Folder-Protect:" .mh_profile entry, which
1302 mh-profile.man documents as an octal-only constant, with no
1303 leading zero required. I've changed the strtoul() call to an
1304 atooi() call and removed the misleading leading zeroes on the
1305 ASCII octal constants in the code and man pages. Also changed the
1306 "Folder-Protect:" example in the man page to something more
1307 interesting than a duplication of the default.
1309 * When I added my --enable-masquerade option, you'll note that I
1310 didn't make it --enable-nmh-masquerade. I find the --enable-nmh-*
1311 options too wordy and I'm not sure why Richard went that route.
1312 I've renamed them to just --enable-*, but the old versions will
1313 still work as well (they just aren't advertised).
1315 * Added a line to the "nmh configuration" output saying whether
1318 * Added a new README.developers file. From the file:
1320 This file is intended to provide a few tips for anyone doing
1321 development on nmh. Developers who learn things "the hard
1322 way" about the nmh codebase (as opposed to local info best
1323 encoded in a comment) are encouraged to share their wisdom
1326 Currently the topics are "autoconf files" and "directory structure".
1328 Tue Mar 14 12:41:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1330 * Applied, after some finessing,
1331 Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s --with-smtpservers patch:
1333 Here's a patch that allows you to add
1335 --with-smtpservers=<some.host.name>
1337 to the ./configure command line to set the "servers: " line in
1338 etc/mts.conf. Around here, we use "mailhost" so that all
1339 machines in the current domain just talk to a central machine
1340 and nothing else runs an MTA. Now, I can use
1342 --with-smtpservers=mailhost
1344 instead of having to remember to fix this by hand (and often
1345 forgetting to do so!).
1347 * Inspired by Simon's patch, added an --enable-masquerade option
1348 to configure. It will set the "masquerade:" line of mts.conf.
1349 You may specify a subset of the three types of masquerading, like
1350 --enable-masquerade="draft_from mmailid", or leave off explicit
1351 arguments to enable all three types.
1353 * Alphabetized the --enable and --with options in configure.in and
1354 INSTALL and added documentation of the two new options to the latter.
1356 * Added new dependency for mts.conf: Makefile. If this isn't
1357 done, then when you reconfigure nmh with new values for
1358 --enable-masquerade or --with-smtpservers, you'll fail to get an
1359 updated copy of mts.conf.
1361 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtimep.lex patch:
1363 It seems that some MUA's didn't handle y2k very well - ELM
1364 seems to be one of them, and Ultrix's DXmail (based on MH!).
1365 I've got a few emails this month that look like:
1367 575 Jan 00 Xxxxxx Xxxx 3603 ...
1369 22+ Jan 00 Xxx Xxxxx 1771 ...
1371 The first has "15 Jan 100" as the date and the second has
1372 "19 Jan 00" as the date. The following works around this so
1373 that scan, show, sortm, etc work ok.
1375 I put Simon's patch under the control of a new #define called
1376 FIX_NON_Y2K_COMPLIANT_MUA_DATES. There's some commentary in
1377 acconfig.h about when you might not want to #define it.
1379 * Created new dtimep.c-lexed with Simon's change using dtimep.lex
1380 lexed on Solaris 2.6. Added missing dependency in
1381 zotnet/tws/Makefile.in for dtimep.c: dtimep.c-lexed.
1383 * Added scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD format files.
1385 Mon Mar 13 21:32:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1387 * Applied Sullivan N. Beck <sbeck@cise.ufl.edu>'s mhshow-suffix patch:
1389 With the patch below, you can add lines like:
1391 mhshow-suffix-application/msword: .doc
1392 mhshow-suffix-application/PostScript: .ps
1394 to the mhn.defaults file to append the given suffix to a
1395 scratch file. This allows applications which require a
1396 certain suffix to run properly.
1398 * Removed -force_html from lynx entry in mhn.defaults.sh (I
1399 believe older versions of lynx lack that option) and added
1400 "mhshow-suffix-text/html: .html".
1402 * Modified username_extension masquerading to only use the
1403 extended address on generated [Resent-]From: lines and SMTP
1404 envelope From:. With Neil's original implementation, nmh's global
1405 idea of the username was changed, which would result in inc lying
1406 and saying you had no new mail because it was looking for a
1407 mailbox called, for instance, "dan-nmh" (where username was "dan"
1408 and $USERNAME_EXTENSION was "-nmh").
1410 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtime.c patch:
1412 There's a wrap-around problem that affects the implementation
1413 of Zeller's congruence in dtime.c. This causes the day-of-week
1414 calculations to fail for dates after Feb 29, 2000 (probably up
1415 until some year far in the future).
1417 Mon Mar 06 12:20:20 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1419 * Applied Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s msh.c patch:
1421 I finally tracked down the problem in msh that was causing
1422 errors whenever I tried to examine a 'mmdf' style mailbox.
1424 It turns out that not enough memory was being allocated with
1425 calloc(), causing memory pointers to be overwritten and
1428 Fri Mar 03 16:07:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1430 * Changed the new "plussed_user" option to mts.conf's
1431 "masquerade:" to "username_extension" after getting feedback from
1432 qmail users, who use '-' as a separator rather than '+'. Removed
1433 checking of $USERPLUS variable. Now check $USERNAME_EXTENSION,
1434 which needs to include the appropriate separator for your MTA
1435 ('-', '+', or whatever) as its first character.
1437 Thu Mar 02 23:04:30 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1439 * Added a new "boolean" type to mh.h and TRUE and FALSE constants.
1441 * Added a note to DIFFERENCES stating that it's out-of-date
1442 (Richard was the last one to update it) and that we should
1443 consider only documenting incompatibilities with MH there.
1445 * Implemented (and documented) a third kind of username
1446 masquerading: "plussed user" masquerading. This one was suggested
1447 by Neil Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>. It's based on sendmail's
1448 "plussed user" feature, where mail sent to <user>+<string> will be
1449 delivered to <user>. When it's enabled, it's controlled by the
1450 $USERPLUS environment variable. How is it enabled? Well, that
1453 * Renamed the "mmailid:" setting in mts.conf to "masquerade:", and
1454 changed it so that rather than being a boolean, it can be set to
1455 any combination of the three values "draft_from", "mmailid", and
1456 "plussed_user". Thus it is now possible to enable the three types
1457 of masquerading individually.
1459 * Fixed a bug with "mmailid" masquerading (dating back to MH?)
1460 where if it was turned on, ','s would no longer be considered
1461 GECOS field delimiters.
1463 Wed Mar 01 23:30:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1465 * Changed the GECOS-field '&' translation behavior to be
1466 controlled by the BSD42 #define rather than GCOS_HACK, since it's
1467 apparently always appropriate on OSes where BSD42 is #defined, and
1468 never appropriate on any other OSes. Thanks to Kimmo Suominen for
1469 responding to my "What is this code here for?" comment in mts.c
1470 and explaining the feature.
1472 Mon Feb 28 21:50:29 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1474 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3+dev (ideally this should be
1475 done by whoever makes a release tar file, immediately after doing
1478 * Applied Paul Fox <pgf-spam@foxharp.boston.ma.us>'s scansbr.c
1479 patch, posted to comp.mail.mh, which he says prevents loss of mail
1480 when inc'ing into a full filesystem.
1482 * Changed "echo > stamp-h.in" in Makefile.in to "date > stamp-h.in"
1483 so that stamp-h.in will be different each time configure.in and
1484 related files are changed, making it easier to check it in (which
1485 is necessary to prevent unnecessary autoconf calls).
1487 * My declaration of initgroups() in slocal.c to eliminate the "no
1488 prototype" warning wasn't portable (FreeBSD 3.[23] choked). Now
1489 use AC_EGREP_HEADER to see where initgroups() is declared, if
1492 Sun Feb 20 12:17:15 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1494 * Fix security hole in mhshowsbr.c which allowed untrusted shell
1495 code to be executed.
1497 * Released nmh 1.0.3.
1499 Thu Feb 10 10:54:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1501 * Oops. %-escapes on mhstore lines in mhn.defaults.sh should not
1502 be surrounded by single quotes, as a shell is not spawned when
1503 just saving files, and the filenames will end up with literal
1504 quotes embedded in them.
1506 Fri Feb 04 12:29:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1508 * Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
1509 got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
1510 the -help output. One theory is that they were making reference
1511 to the fact that clearly you know about the -help option since
1512 you're currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea
1513 to overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
1514 supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
1517 The other theory is that because you can say something like
1518 "mhstore -" and get "mhstore: - ambiguous. It matches" followed
1519 by the same list of switches you get with -help, they were saying
1520 you can "sorta" abbreviate "-help" as "-". You don't get the
1521 "Usage:" string, though, so it's not really the same thing.
1523 Thu Feb 03 17:52:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1525 * Applied wesley.craig@umich.edu's KPOP patches. According to him:
1527 The following patch fixes a problem with requesting a
1528 service key for a machine that has multiple 'A' records. It
1529 also makes "-kpop" a command line option, for users who
1530 would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".
1532 Did no testing of the new features, as I don't have access to a
1535 * Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
1537 * Modified INSTALL and config.h.in to reflect the new -kpop feature.
1539 Fri Jan 28 17:39:24 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1541 * All %-escapes in mhn.defaults that actually expand to something
1542 should be surrounded by single quotes. Added quotes to the ones
1543 in mhn.defaults.sh that were missing them.
1545 * Added check for lynx to write mhshow-show-text/html line in
1548 Thu Jan 27 12:22:25 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1550 * makedir() had multiple bugs dating back to MH. An octal
1551 constant was apparently being interpreted as decimal, resulting in
1552 directories with no user read or execute permissions, making
1553 nested directory creation fail. And there wasn't even an
1554 _attempt_ to set desired permissions (e.g. from "Folder-Protect:"
1555 in .mh_profile) on the outer directories of a nested directory.
1557 * A second `make install' would always fail because the check for
1558 whether mh_profile.5 existed was written incorrectly.
1560 Wed Jan 26 02:22:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1562 * Added documentation on both types of masquerading to post's man
1565 Tue Jan 25 22:58:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1567 * Doug's portability fix of my setgid inc autodetection had a
1568 caching bug -- if you re-ran configure, uip/Makefile would be
1569 corrupted, and installation would bomb out on OSes where inc needs
1572 * Implemented a new kind of email address masquerading. Usually,
1573 when a user writes a custom "From:" header in a draft, nmh uses it
1574 rather than generating one. However, the user's true address is
1575 used in the SMTP envelope "From:" and is revealed in the "Sender:"
1576 header. Now, when mmailid is set to non-zero, the envelope
1577 "From:" uses the address specified in the draft "From:" header,
1578 and there is no "Sender:" header. This is useful when sending on
1579 behalf of a remote POP3 account or when remote mail robots
1580 incorrectly use the envelope "From:" in preference to the body
1581 "From:". This processing has only been implemented for post, not
1582 for the undocumented spost (which was already missing some "From:"
1583 processing that post has).
1585 Mon Jan 24 22:26:06 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1587 * Got rid of the rest of the gcc -Wall warnings that I didn't have
1588 time for on 1999-07-15 (and, it would seem, some new ones people
1589 introduced since then). The primary ones were the warnings that
1590 default prototypes were being used for [v]snprintf() and
1591 str[n]casecmp(). As of right now, there are _no_ compilation
1592 warnings except on dtimep.c-lexed (at least under AIX 4.1.5 and
1595 Sun Jan 2 23:42:18 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1597 * Move mhtest from bindir to libdir.
1599 * Move sendfiles from libdir to bindir.
1601 * Updated sendfiles manpage to reflect this change.
1603 * Added documentation for -build and -file switches to repl and
1604 forw manpages (patch from Peter Maydell).
1606 * Fixed interaction between specifying -cc in profile and -group on
1609 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1611 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
1612 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
1613 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
1616 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1618 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
1619 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
1620 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
1621 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
1622 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
1623 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).
1625 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1627 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
1629 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1631 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
1632 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
1633 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
1634 caught again. This works for now.
1636 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
1638 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1640 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
1641 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
1643 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1645 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
1646 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
1648 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
1650 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
1652 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1654 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
1655 changes. Both need more cleanup.
1657 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1659 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
1660 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
1661 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
1662 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
1663 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
1666 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1668 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
1669 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
1670 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
1672 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
1673 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
1676 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1678 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
1679 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
1680 to a directory on another device with more free space.
1682 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1684 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
1685 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
1687 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1689 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
1692 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
1693 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
1695 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
1696 macros, regardless of platform.
1698 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
1699 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1701 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
1702 with x-conversions=gzip.
1704 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1706 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
1709 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
1710 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
1711 implicit definition of ioctl().
1713 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
1714 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
1715 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
1716 want to mess with them.
1718 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1720 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
1721 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
1723 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
1724 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
1726 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
1727 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
1728 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
1730 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
1731 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
1732 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
1734 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
1735 function initgroups.
1737 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
1740 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
1741 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
1744 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
1745 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
1748 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
1749 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
1753 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1755 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
1756 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
1757 preventing compilation on at least linux.
1759 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
1760 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
1762 Thu Sep 09 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1764 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
1766 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
1767 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
1768 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
1769 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
1771 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
1772 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
1774 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1776 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
1778 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1780 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
1781 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
1783 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1785 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
1786 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
1788 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
1789 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
1790 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
1791 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
1793 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
1794 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
1796 Sat Jun 09 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1798 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
1799 substitute it for mktemp if available.
1801 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1803 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
1804 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
1807 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
1809 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
1811 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
1813 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
1814 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
1816 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
1817 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
1818 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
1820 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
1821 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
1822 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
1824 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
1825 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
1826 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1828 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
1829 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
1832 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
1833 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1835 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
1836 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1838 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
1839 <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1841 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
1842 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
1843 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1845 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
1846 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1848 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
1849 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
1850 <elleron@servtech.com>.
1852 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
1853 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
1856 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
1857 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
1859 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
1860 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
1861 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
1862 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
1864 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
1865 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
1867 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1871 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
1872 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
1873 would not be changed.
1875 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
1876 one from the Apache web server.
1878 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
1879 (this should have been done a long time ago).
1881 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
1882 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
1883 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
1885 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
1887 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
1889 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
1890 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
1893 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
1894 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
1895 removes a bad race condition.
1897 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
1900 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
1901 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
1902 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
1904 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
1905 sequence information.
1907 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
1908 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
1910 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
1913 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
1916 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
1918 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
1919 interpret 034 as octal.
1921 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
1923 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
1924 mhstore, and mhbuild.
1926 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
1927 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
1929 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
1930 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
1932 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
1933 in the c_cefile structure when building.
1935 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
1936 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
1938 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
1939 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
1940 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
1942 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
1943 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
1944 and mhshow. Updated man pages
1946 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
1948 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
1950 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
1951 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
1954 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
1956 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
1957 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
1959 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
1960 header field information.
1962 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
1963 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
1965 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
1966 values when parsing a content.
1968 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
1969 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
1971 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
1972 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
1974 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
1975 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1977 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
1978 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
1980 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
1982 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
1984 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
1986 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
1988 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
1989 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
1992 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
1993 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
1995 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
1996 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
1997 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
1998 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
1999 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
2000 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
2003 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
2005 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
2006 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
2007 buffer length checks for this parameter.
2009 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
2010 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
2012 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
2014 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
2015 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
2016 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
2017 of the limits on the length of command lines.
2019 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
2020 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
2023 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
2024 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
2025 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
2026 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
2029 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2031 * Released nmh-0.27.
2033 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
2034 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
2036 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
2037 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
2038 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
2039 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
2042 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
2043 mhbuild returns an error.
2045 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
2046 rename the draft file.
2048 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
2049 use a global variable.
2051 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
2052 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
2054 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
2055 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
2057 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
2058 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
2059 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
2061 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
2062 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
2064 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
2065 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
2068 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
2069 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
2072 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
2073 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
2075 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
2076 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
2077 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
2079 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
2080 to new function output_content_folder.
2082 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
2083 new function output_content_file.
2085 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
2086 to new function parse_format_string.
2088 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
2089 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
2090 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
2091 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
2093 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
2094 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
2095 message/external file from ftp.
2097 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
2098 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
2099 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
2101 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
2102 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
2105 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
2108 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
2109 new file mhstoresbr.c
2111 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
2114 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
2115 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
2117 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
2118 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
2120 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
2121 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
2122 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
2124 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
2126 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
2128 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
2129 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
2132 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
2133 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
2135 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
2138 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
2140 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2142 * Released nmh-0.26.
2144 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
2145 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
2146 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
2147 is still the same (dashstuffing).
2149 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
2150 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
2151 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
2152 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
2153 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
2155 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
2156 But it is not on by default.
2158 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
2159 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
2161 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
2163 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
2165 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
2167 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
2169 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
2170 number of the "cur" message when packing.
2172 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2174 * Released nmh-0.25.
2176 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
2177 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
2178 uses the original name of the library.
2180 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
2181 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
2184 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
2185 list_content and list_debug.
2187 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
2189 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
2190 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.

2194 * Released nmh-0.24.
2196 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
2198 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
2199 are given, that order doesn't matter.
2201 * Fix bug in seq_list.c when realloc'ing for
2202 large sequence line.
2204 1998-02-23 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2206 * Released nmh-0.23.
2208 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
2210 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
2211 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan
2212 content, decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary
2213 string). I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
2215 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
2216 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
2219 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
2221 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
2223 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
2225 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
2226 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
2228 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
2229 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.
2231 * Add note to MACHINES file that on Linux, configure
2232 doesn't find the functions sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
2234 * Fix configuration for machines that don't have (or find)
2235 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
2237 1998-02-11 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2239 * Released nmh-0.22.
2241 * Add a configure check for sigsetjmp. Add some conditional
2242 #define's in h/signals.h in case it's not found.
2244 * Added additional notes about -auto switch in mhn man page.
2246 * Added note about MM_CHARSET environment variable to
2247 mh-profile(5) man page.
2249 * Fix signal problem in mhn.c (change setjmp/longjmp to
2250 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp).
2252 1998-02-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2254 * Released nmh-0.22-pre1.
2256 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
2257 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
2259 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
2261 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
2262 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
2263 entry point for parsing MIME files.
2265 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
2266 source message on the standard input.
2268 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
2270 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
2271 rather than -rfc934mode.
2273 * Fix mhbuild, so that Content-Description and RFC-822 comments
2274 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
2277 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
2278 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).
2280 * Restore HP specific code to zotnet/tws/lexstring.c. Apparently
2283 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2285 * Released nmh-0.21.
2287 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
2288 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.
2290 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what transfer
2293 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what character set
2294 to use for text contents.
2296 * Removed old hpux specific code from zotnet/tws/lexstring.c
2298 1998-02-02 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2300 * Released nmh-0.21-pre2.
2302 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
2304 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
2305 header fields as per RFC-2047.
2307 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
2308 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
2309 spaces between encoded word are.
2311 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
2313 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
2314 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
2316 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
2317 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
2318 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
2320 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
2322 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
2323 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
2325 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.
2327 * Added support for %(decode) to fmtdump.c.
2329 * check_charset() now accepts US-ASCII as a subset of any
2330 ISO-8859-X character set.
2332 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
2335 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
2336 permissions, not write permissions.
2338 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
2339 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
2341 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
2344 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2346 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
2348 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
2349 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
2351 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
2352 message contains valid character set.
2354 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
2355 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
2357 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
2358 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
2360 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
2361 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
2362 between an encoded word and normal text.
2364 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
2365 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
2367 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
2368 as a RFC-2047 header field.
2370 * The command install-mh now recognizes the switches -version
2373 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
2374 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
2377 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
2378 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
2380 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
2381 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
2383 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
2385 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2387 * Released nmh-0.20.
2389 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
2391 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.
2393 * Changed the default format file for mhl (mhl.format) to
2394 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
2395 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
2397 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
2398 and the To: line was missing.
2400 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
2402 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2404 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
2406 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
2407 watch the POP transaction.
2409 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
2410 first, and use it if available.
2412 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
2413 first, and use it if available.
2415 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2417 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
2419 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
2420 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
2421 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
2424 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
2425 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
2426 returns the state FLDPLUS.
2428 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
2429 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
2432 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
2434 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
2435 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
2437 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
2439 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
2440 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
2442 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
2443 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
2444 message to which you are replying.
2446 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
2447 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
2448 making group replies.
2450 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
2452 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2454 * Released nmh-0.19.
2456 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
2457 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
2459 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
2460 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
2461 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
2462 to the end of the man page.
2464 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
2465 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
2466 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
2467 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
2468 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
2469 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
2471 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
2474 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
2475 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
2476 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
2478 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
2479 the next available number above the message number you wish
2482 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
2483 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
2485 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
2486 file sbr/seq_print.c
2488 * flist will now update the current folder.
2490 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
2491 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
2492 but now undocumented.
2494 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
2497 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
2498 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
2500 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
2502 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
2503 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
2505 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2507 * Released nmh-0.18.
2509 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
2510 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
2511 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
2513 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
2514 retains the public/private status of sequences.
2516 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
2517 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
2518 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
2519 previous public/private status.
2521 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
2524 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
2527 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
2528 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
2529 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
2531 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
2532 take option to determine whether it should get current
2533 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
2534 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
2536 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
2538 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
2539 wait for stopped processes.
2541 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
2542 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
2544 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2546 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
2548 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
2549 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
2551 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
2552 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
2554 * Change the way that memory for message status is
2555 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
2556 the folder/message structure. This required changing
2557 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
2559 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
2562 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
2565 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
2567 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
2568 the debugging output.
2570 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
2571 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
2573 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2575 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
2577 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
2578 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
2580 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
2582 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
2583 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
2584 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
2585 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
2586 in the given sequence.
2588 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
2589 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
2590 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
2591 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
2592 subdirectories of a given directory.
2594 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
2595 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
2596 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
2598 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
2599 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
2601 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
2603 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
2606 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
2607 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
2608 fields are now calculated at runtime.
2610 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
2611 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
2612 are calculated at runtime.
2614 Sun Nov 30 19:14:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2616 * Released nmh-0.18-pre2.
2618 * Add paragraph to man page for install-mh and to INSTALL file
2619 about checking for global mh.profile.
2621 * Renamed m_find() to context_find().
2622 Renamed m_replace() to context_replace().
2623 Renamed m_delete() to context_del().
2624 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
2625 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
2626 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
2628 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
2629 adding message to folder itself.
2631 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
2632 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
2633 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
2636 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
2637 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
2640 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
2641 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
2642 is the same as the direct smtp code).
2644 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
2645 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
2647 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
2648 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
2649 code to use it yet).
2651 Thu Nov 13 18:42:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2653 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.
2655 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never
2656 called with a value larger than 30 mintues.
2658 * Fixed race condition in rmm and refile, so that
2659 context is updated before external rmmproc is called.
2661 * Removed all the OVERHEAD code.
2663 * Move code to add message to folder from refile.c
2666 Fri Jul 25 19:39:29 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2668 * Did some rearranging of the internals of inc.c.
2670 * Make -inplace the default for anno, forw, dist, and repl.
2672 * Changed --enable-smtp to --with-mts={smtp,sendmail}
2674 * Created new directory mts/sendmail for direct sendmail
2675 interface (although it currently still uses SMTP).
2677 * Removed all the TMA (trusted mail agent) code
2679 * Removed all the TTYD (terminal access daemon) code
2681 * Removed all the MF (uucp filtering) code.
2683 * Removed all the code for BERK.
2685 * Removed all the code for stand-alone delivery (MHMTS).
2687 * Split the file mts/sendmail/smail.c into sendmail.c and
2688 smtp.c. Changed the name of the directory to mts/smtp.
2690 * Changed autoconf to use @sysconfdir@ for location of
2691 configuration files.
2693 * Changed #define in mhn.c from FTP to BUILTIN_FTP.
2695 Mon Jul 21 03:22:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2697 * Released nmh-0.17.
2699 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
2701 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
2702 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
2704 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
2707 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
2708 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
2710 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
2711 number of refiled message.
2713 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
2715 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
2716 for return value of wait().
2718 * Change configure to also check /bin for "more".
2720 Sat Jul 12 00:02:23 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2722 * Released nmh-0.16.
2724 Mon Jun 23 20:13:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2726 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
2728 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
2729 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
2730 deal with binary messages, yet).
2732 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
2734 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
2736 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
2737 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
2738 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
2739 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
2740 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
2741 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
2743 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
2744 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
2746 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
2747 From MH-6.8.4 patch.
2749 * Fix double free of ctinfo in user_content when using
2750 #forw with single message. From John MacMillan (and
2753 * Changed -mhnproc switch for show, to -showmimeproc.
2755 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".
2757 * Added "mime" option to "whatnow", which calls the program
2758 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
2761 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
2764 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
2766 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
2767 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
2768 which used unsigned chars by default.
2770 Sat Jun 21 01:21:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2772 * Released nmh-0.15.
2774 * Added new form "scan.unseen" to distribution. It marks messages
2775 which are in any sequence in Unseen-Sequence.
2777 * Do some rearranging of date/time code in zotnet/tws/dtime.c
2779 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
2781 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
2784 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
2785 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
2786 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
2788 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
2789 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
2791 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
2793 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
2794 they conflict with defines on AIX.
2796 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
2797 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
2798 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
2799 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
2801 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
2802 and put in own subroutine.
2804 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
2805 and put in own subroutine.
2807 * Moved code to remove messages from folder into own
2808 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and
2809 refile.c to use new routine.
2811 Fri May 16 06:09:31 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2813 * Renamed m_seqok to seq_nameok.
2815 * Changed m_setunseen, msh, mshcmds, flist, and scan to use
2818 * Changed m_seqflag to return the number of a sequence rather

2936 will suppress the display of the message header.
2938 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
2940 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c

2957 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
2959 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
2960 folder/message structure when done with folder.
2962 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is

3025 * Released nmh-0.08.
3027 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
3028 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of

3036 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
3039 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
3040 rather than mmdf format.
3042 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
3043 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
3044 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
3045 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
3047 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
3049 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3051 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
3054 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
3055 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
3056 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
3058 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
3059 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to

3062 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3064 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
3065 can still easily change this in config.h).
3067 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
3068 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
3069 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
3071 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3073 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather

3088 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
3090 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
3091 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
3094 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
3095 built-in FTP client in mhn.

3108 * Released nmh-0.06.
3110 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
3111 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
3113 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
3114 many such machines around anymore.
3116 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
3117 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
3119 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
3120 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
3122 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3124 * Check lex generated file in zotnet/tws and use
3125 pre-generated version if necessary.
3127 * Released nmh-0.05.
3129 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
3130 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
3131 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
3132 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
3134 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
3135 be linked in one pass.
3137 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3139 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
3140 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
3142 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3144 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
3146 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3148 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
3149 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
3150 become the current folder.
3152 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3154 * Released nmh-0.04.

3159 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3161 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
3162 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
3163 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
3165 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3167 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
3168 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
3170 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3172 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
3173 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
3176 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
3177 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
3179 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3181 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
3182 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
3183 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
3184 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
3185 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
3186 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
3188 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3190 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
3191 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
3193 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
3194 a file (currently need to specify full path).
3196 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3198 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
3199 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
3201 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3203 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
3204 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
3205 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
3207 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3209 * Released nmh-0.03.
3211 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
3212 .mh_sequence file existed.
3214 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
3215 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
3217 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
3218 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
3221 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3223 * Changed flist option -unseen to -[no]all. Cleaned up
3226 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3228 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
3229 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
3230 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
3232 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3234 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
3235 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
3236 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
3238 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3240 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL
3241 and allocate its own buffer. Borrowed from zsh.
3243 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
3245 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3247 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
3248 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
3249 directory from where the source code is located.
3251 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3253 * Released nmh-0.02.

3273 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
3274 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
3275 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
3276 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
3277 rather than in script.
3279 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3281 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
3283 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with

3288 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
3289 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
3291 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
3292 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
3293 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
3294 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
3297 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3299 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
3300 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.
3302 * Fixed configure test so that termcap variable ospeed is
3305 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3307 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
3309 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included
3310 in mhn.c. Changed md5 to use memset and memcpy.
3312 Fri Dec 20 02:29:37 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3314 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
3315 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
3317 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3319 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
3320 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
3321 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
3322 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
3323 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
3324 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
3326 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3328 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
3330 * Released nmh-0.01.
3332 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
3333 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
3334 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
3337 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3339 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
3342 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3344 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
3345 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
3347 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3349 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
3350 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
3351 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
3352 script to find_program.
3354 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3356 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
3357 speed up -recurse option.
3359 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
3360 yet, but it compiles :-)
3362 * Changed default location for install to
3363 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
3364 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
3365 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
3368 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
3369 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
3370 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
