1 2006-03-09 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
3 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c (decode_rfc2047): Don't close the iconv descriptor
6 2006-03-08 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
8 * (mh_strcasecmp): Rename the private strcasecmp function to
9 mh_strcasecmp. This keeps the newer gnu linker happy.
11 2006-03-05 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
13 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c: don't try to malloc 0 bytes if an RFC2047
14 encoded block is empty
16 2006-03-04 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
18 * etc/Makefile.in: use INSTALL_SCRIPT to install scripts;
19 this allows INSTALL_PROGRAM to be set to 'install -s' so
20 binaries are stripped on installation. Apparently the BSDs
23 2006-02-25 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
25 * uip/sendsbr.c: replaced st_mtim with st_mtime, that's what
26 it should have been. Added #include of h/tws.h to pick up
29 2006-02-20 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
31 * h/mh.h, h/prototypes.h, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, uip/send.c,
32 uip/sendsbr.c, uip/viamail.c, uip/whatnowsbr.c, man/send.man:
33 added -attachformat switch to send, to support alternate MIME
34 header contents when using -attach. See send man page for
37 * man/mhbuild.man: wrapped one appearance of "Content-Disposition"
38 with quotes, to be consistent with others.
40 2006-02-20 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
42 * h/utils.h, sbr/utils.c, uip/flist.c, uip/folder.c: Move duplicate
43 function num_digits into utils.c
45 2006-02-19 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
47 * sbr/m_draft.c, sbr/utils.c, uip/folder.c, uip/inc.c,
48 uip/mhstoresbr.c, uip/popi.c, uip/refile.c: Add create_folder()
49 function, replacing duplicate code during folder creation.
51 2006-02-18 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
53 * h/mime.h, h/mhparse.h, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, uip/mhfree.c,
54 man/mhbuild.man, docs/TODO: added support for an optional
55 Content-Disposition header in mhbuild (only). Its contents
56 are supplied between {}, positioned after the optional [], in
57 a mhbuild directive. If the contents do not contain a
58 "filename=" parameter, and the directive has a filename, or
59 something else that ends with "name=", then that will be used
60 to add a "filename=" parameter to the header.
62 2006-02-12 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
64 * docs/TODO: added RFC2183 to reference of RFC1806 for
65 Content-Disposition header.
67 2006-01-31 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
69 * uip/mhbuild.c, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, man/mhbuild.man: added
70 -nocontentid switch, to disable generation of Content-ID:
71 header in MIME messages. (Also added -contentid for
72 symmetry.) The default configuration of Microsoft Outlook,
73 Build 10.0.3416 in particular, doesn't see attachments in
74 incoming messages if there are Content-ID headers, see
75 http://home.cwru.edu/~wrv/eudoraoutlookfix.html. This allows
76 users to easily accomodate that by adding
77 mhbuild: -nocontentid to their .mh_profile.
79 2006-01-29 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
81 * bug 4360: uip/replsbr.c: remove trailing newlines from components
82 to fix bug with spaces at the end of Subject/References in replies
84 2006-01-18 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
86 * configure.in: use AS_HELP_STRING for formatting help messages
88 * configure.in, sbr/fmt_scan.c: add autoconf magic to support
89 old systems that don't support multibyte character sets
91 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: fix bug with insertion of newline being wrong if
92 the num function was used at the end of the format buffer
94 2006-01-17 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
96 * uip/post.c, uip/spost.c: in make_bcc_file (), use same
97 logic as in finish_headers () to detect whether there is an
98 existing From: line in the draft. If draft_from masquerade
99 flag is enabled, this allows the From: to be obeyed in the
100 Bcc, instead of the old behavior of always replacing it with
103 2006-01-17 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
105 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: more robust multi-byte/column support for field
106 widths, restoring right justification feature
108 2006-01-16 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
110 * h/aliasbr.h, h/rcvmail.h, man/Makefile.in, man/slocal.man,
111 sbr/lock_file.c, uip/aliasbr.c, uip/dropsbr.c, uip/post.c,
112 uip/slocal.c, man/mh-mts.man: remove remnants of code for MMDF
114 * uip/scansbr.c: multiply buffer size by MB_CUR_MAX so multi-byte
117 2006-01-14 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
119 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: Turn the PUTSF macro into a function capable of
120 handling multi column characters.
122 2006-01-07 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
124 * Remove sbr/strerror.c -- strerror(3) is defined in C89.
126 2006-01-06 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
128 * patch #3968: Move the add() function from its own file (add.c) and
129 into utils.c. There was also a duplicate add() function in mf.c which
132 2006-01-02 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
134 * Remove sbr/pwd.c file, moving the pwd() function into sbr/utils.c.
136 2006-01-01 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
138 * patch #3967: Create a mh_xrealloc function to prevent mistakes when
141 2006-01-01 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
143 * patch #3966: Create a mh_xmalloc function to prevent mistakes when
146 2005-12-24 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
148 * Bug #15285: Don't use $< in target rules in makefiles, as POSIX
149 says it's only defined in inference rules. (BSD make was expanding
150 $< to the empty string in the rule for building sbr/dtimep.c, which
151 causes lex to apparently hang because it's reading from stdin.)
153 2005-12-24 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
155 * Completely redo db library checking -- we now check for working
156 (include file, library) pairs rather than checking for headers and
157 libraries separately. We also now provide --with-ndbm=lib and
158 --with-ndbmheader=header options to configure to handle situations
159 where configure's autodetection fails.
161 2005-12-21 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
163 * Fix stupid accidental dependence on a bash quirk in previous
164 configure script change.
166 2005-12-15 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
168 * Improve checking for Berkeley db libraries: configure should now
169 find a suitable library on systems with new gdbm where
170 compatibility functions are in the gdbm_compat library, and on
173 2005-12-13 Michael Forrest <mef@computer.org>
175 * Fedora Bug #163760: sbr/context_read.c (context_read): Ensure that
176 the context is only read once.
178 2005-12-12 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
180 * uip/sendsbr.c (annoaux): Fix the call to annotate() fixing a bug
181 which prevented repl from properly annotating messages.
183 2005-12-07 Jon Steinhart <nmh@fourwinds.com>
185 * Fixed a bug where anno -append put the headers in the wrong place
186 if applied to a message that didn't contain any headers.
188 * Added a special value of "all" to the -number option that causes
189 anno -delete to delete all matching components instead of just
192 * Added new -preserve and -nopreserve options. Using -preserve
193 retains the original last accessed and last modified times on
196 2005-12-05 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
198 * Fedora Bug #174983: configure.in: Fix the AC_PATH_PROG default when
199 vi isn't found during build.
201 2005-11-19 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
203 * bug #14977: sbr/context_read.c: special case an MHCONTEXT of
204 "/dev/null" and don't try to lock it.
206 * bug #9228, debian bug #146449: man/mh-profile.man: make it clearer
207 that lower case environment variables (and in particular mheditor)
208 are internal to nmh and not intended to be set by the user.
210 2005-11-09 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
212 * sbr/mf.c: fix buffer overrun with absurdly long addresses
213 (only causes crashes if scan is run with '-width 16536' or similar)
215 * bug #7917: sbr/context_foil.c, sbr/context_read.c,
216 sbr/context_save.c: mark 'no context' with NULL rather than
217 "/dev/null" so we don't inadvertently try to lock /dev/null (which
218 takes up to a minute in some locking configurations and makes post
221 * patch #3913: uip/post.c: pass some globals into sm_init() so that
222 it uses SASL if necessary. (This bug was preventing Bcc'd emails
223 from being sent via SASL authenticated SMTP.)
225 * bug #9813: uip/rmf.c: don't crash if there's no Current-Folder
226 entry in the context file.
228 2005-11-13 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
230 * bug #7833: uip/Makefile.in: remove link to install-mh that caused
231 problems on some systems
233 * bug #739: Makefile.in: install target now depends on all to avoid
234 problem on case-insensitive file systems with the INSTALL file
236 2005-11-10 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
238 * Fedora Bug #172838: configure.in: Fix the AC_PATH_PROG default when
239 sendmail isn't found during build.
241 2005-11-09 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
243 * h/aliasbr.h: fix a non-ANSI prototype.
245 2005-11-08 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
247 * Simon Burge: acconfig.h, configure.in, uip/rcvtty.c, uip/slocal.c:
248 fix to handle getutent() on NetBSD
250 * INSTALL, README, docs/README.about, man/nmh.man: update most
251 references to the web page and mailing list locations
253 * bug #10230: etc/Makefile.in, man/Makefile.in, uip/Makefile.in:
254 Michael De La Rue: prepend DESTDIR to install locations
256 * configure.in, */Makefile.in, mts/smtp/smtp.c: replace obsolete
259 2005-11-06 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
261 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, sbr/fmt_scan.c, h/prototypes.h: fix various
262 possible overruns of the buffers in fmt_scan() which would cause
263 crashes if scan was run with '-width 16536' or similar.
265 * uip/popsbr.c: fix compile error which only showed up if nmh
266 was configured with --enable-apop.
268 * Debian Bug# 245932, RedHat Bug# 172388: uip/mhparse.c: don't
269 crash when handling a multipart MIME message with an invalid
270 Content-Type header (file handle was being fclose()d twice).
272 * sbr/Makefile.in: adjust lex command to work on both old and
273 new versions of flex.
275 * configure.in: add an AC_PREREQ() so autoconf 2.13 gives a helpful
276 error message and the Debian autoconf-version-guessing wrapper
277 doesn't guess wrongly.
279 2005-11-02 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
281 * Debian Bug# 320069: Nick Rusnov: uip/popsbr.c: fail when
282 kpop connection attempted without KPOP support compiled in
284 * Debian Bug# 320090: Nick Rusnov: sbr/Makefile.in: fix for newer
285 version of flex and remove autogenerated file from cvs
287 * patch #1155: uip/flist.c: speed up flist by skipping stat on
288 files with numbers as names
290 * docs/Makefile.in: include new files in distribution
292 2005-10-11 Bill Wohler <wohler@newt.com>
294 * docs/FAQ: fold questions into MH FAQ and distribute that instead
296 2005-10-05 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
298 * Harald Geyer: h/mh.h, uip/replsbr.c: back out previous change
299 (fork/vfork) and replace with code that handles the issue directly
301 2005-05-18 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
303 * Debian Bug# 143485: Nick Rusnov: h/mh.h: use fork instead of
306 * Debian Bug# 261592: Harald Geyer: uip/mhlsbr.c, uip/replsbr.c:
307 test/report error writing to stdout
309 * mts/smtp/smtp.c, uip/popsbr.c: correct SASL include file locations
311 * docs/COMPLETION-BASH: bash completion definitions from Debian
313 * patch #2863: savannah@brisammon.fastmail.fm: sbr/folder_read.c:
314 fix a bug affecting AFS where nmh was setting the READONLY flag
315 for a folder even when you do have write access to the folder
317 * Carl Mummert: h/fmt_compile.h, man/mh-format.man,
318 sbr/fmt_compile.c, sbr/fmt_scan.c: add unquote() function for
319 removing quotes from RFC-2822 encoded headers
321 2005-02-23 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
323 * use iconv to convert RFC-2047 encoded headers to the
324 character set used by the current locale
326 * sbr/folder_read.c fix Debian bug #202667: crash when a
327 message's filename overflows an int when converted
329 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
330 versions (from automake 1.9.5)
332 2005-02-21 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
334 * sbr/getpass.c fix bug where inc crashed on failing to reopen
337 2005-01-27 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
339 * Added -proxy option to inc and msgchk. Based on old patch
340 from Michael Richardson.
342 * On systems where it is available, use nl_langinfo to get the
343 character set if MM_CHARSET is unset
345 2005-01-21 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
347 * sbr/check_charset.c US-ASCII is a subset of UTF-8 so can be
348 handled directly when UTF-8 is being used
350 2004-12-17 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
352 * uip/mhmisc.c Fix -part option to mhshow/mhlist/mhstore to
353 find sub-parts of the specified part
355 2004-11-19 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
357 * h/prototypes.h, sbr/folder_addmsg.c, uip/mhstoresbr.c,
358 uip/rcvstore.c, uip/refile.c: Added mail directory argument to
359 folder_addmsg in order to make it possible to provide a path to
360 the ext_hook call that is mailpath-based. A problem existed when
361 a folder was a symbolic link and the pwd call would return the
362 path relative to the filesystem, not to mailpath. A new argument
363 was needed because there was otherwise no reasonable way to get
366 2004-11-16 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
368 * sbr/folder_pack.c: Fixed problem where the refile hook was being
369 called after a message was renamed so that it wasn't around for
370 the hook. The hook is now called before the message file is
373 * sbr/folder_addmsg.c: Fixed wrong directory for hook when
374 refiling with -src option.
376 2004-10-15 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
378 * uip/sortm.c: Fixed calling of external hooks.
380 2004-10-12 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
382 * uip/inc.c: Fixed another weird bug caused by the static
383 mailpath being overwritten.
385 * uip/sendsbr.c: Fixed bug that caused anno to mangle headers.
387 * sbr/lock_file.c: Fixed strange bug that prevented a lock from
388 ever being obtained if getting it failed the first time. The
389 problem was that the string of XXXXXX that is required by
390 mkstemp() was overwritten the first time through, and so all
391 subsequent times failed because mkstemp() failed. The fix
392 reinitializes the tmp file string.
394 * uip/inc.c: Fixed bug in which the static maildir was overwritted
395 if a format string was read from the profile.
397 * sbr/folder_delmsgs.c: Fixed bug that was producing an incorrect
398 path for the external hook.
400 2003-10-06 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
402 * uip/slocal.c, configure.in: db configuration fix for Debian; yet
403 another location for ndbm.
405 2003-09-30 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
407 * Fix 'pick' so handling of options "-list" and "-seq" are
409 * Fix 'inc' realloc error when bringing in more than 100 msgs
411 * Patches submitted by Nick Rusnov from Debian archive applied:
414 136976 - Handle binary content messages
415 143427 - mh-format.man typo
416 144098 - 'spost; should have same behavior as 'post'
417 w.r.t. mts.conf masquerade line
418 149745 - slocal ignores 'N' result of previous command
419 152728 - increase SMTP timeouts to conform to RFC 1123
420 The timeouts suggested by the RFC seem long
421 to me - but the RFC is still listed as active.
422 181867 - typo for nmh.man
424 2003-08-10 Jeffrey C Honig <jch@honig.net>
426 * Fix problem where parsing of address/date fields in fmt_compile
427 is optimized to the first instance. The first instance may be in
428 contitional code which will result in cached data to
429 be used. Instead, convert c_flags to a flags field from a boolean
430 and parse on the first use.
431 * Remove some unused flag bits.
433 Fri Jul 01 22:02:00 2003 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
435 * Applied fixes for configuration problems with Solaris and
436 systems with gdbm instead of db1 (includes bug #2024)
438 #578 - repl leaks umask
439 #1393 - sortm core dumps
440 #1650 - msh leaks file descriptors
441 #1730 - Double free() in mhfree.c:free_encoding()
442 #3356 - In-Reply-To header in default replcomps should be
444 * Revised man page for mh-format (bug #2031)
445 * New replcomps, etc, with Fcc: +outbox in default versions
447 Sat Mar 17 03:18:15 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
449 * Ken Hornstein's configure.in Cyrus SASL checks were doing
450 `x"$with_cyrus_sasl" != "no"' instead of `... != x"no"'.
452 Tue Mar 06 21:04:27 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
454 * Found some historical information about MH in RFC 808.
455 Supplemented it with info from Jerry Peek's MH book and added it
456 to docs/README.about.
458 Tue Feb 6 20:35:40 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
460 * sbr/dtime.c Use the same Y2K correction code as dtimep.lex
462 * sbr/dtimep.lex Restrict the parser to accept either
463 a numerical timezone offset, or a symbolic one (e.g. EST),
464 but not both (Since "2000 -400 EDT" might cause a double
465 subtraction of 60 minutes if both are parsed. One should be
468 Mon Feb 05 20:22:54 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
470 * -L isn't sufficient for specifying the path of the Cyrus SASL
471 shared library. That'll allow us to link successfully, but on
472 many/most OSes that won't allow us to find libsasl at runtime. On
473 Solaris, we need to specify the library path with -R as well (or
474 else the user will have to use the $LD_LIBRARY_PATH kludge, which
475 is considered harmful). This fix should be extended to other OSes
478 * Print whether we have SASL support in the "nmh configuration"
479 summary configure prints out.
481 * Say in README.developers to use `\date' in case anyone is like
482 me and has `date' aliased in their shell to use a nonstandard (but
483 subjectively more readable) format.
485 Thu Jan 25 21:15:52 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
487 * man/mh-chart.man has updated synposes of
490 Tue Jan 23 20:26:15 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
492 * etc/digestcomps tried to force dates into a
493 19xx when it's not necessary.
495 Fri Jan 19 21:22:08 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
497 * First round of manpage updates finished. They
498 are standardized on -man macros, with minimal
501 * man/tmac.h.in is no longer needed, since the
502 manpages do not depend on them anymore. Note:
503 strict "man" programs that didn't allow ".so"
504 sourcing outside the man tree will now format
505 the man pages correctly.
507 * man/vmh.1 is no longer built, since uip/vmh isn't
509 Tue Jan 9 6:01:22 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
511 * Finished manpages ali-prev
513 * Removed deprecated files from the repository.
514 Specifically, those rooted in zotnet/ and mts/sendmail
515 mts/mmdf. "cvs update -dP" will give a pruned directory
518 * Updated docs/Makefile.in to include README.manpages, and
519 uip/Makefile.in to include popi.c (which isn't being built,
520 though). This allows "make nmhdist" to create an archive that
521 is file-for-file identical to the current cvs repository.
523 Sun Dec 31 20:48:50 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
525 * Create docs/README.manpages, which details
526 the formatting rules I've been using.
530 Sat Dec 30 9:50:13 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
532 * Created a new file "DATE" to hold the date
533 of the most recent nmh release. This date will be
534 used in the manpages.
536 * Updated docs/README.developers to add the step
537 of updating DATE. Also, updated configure to
538 read in the contents of the file as the variable
541 * Started work on updating man pages, with only
542 ali finished so far. Changes: 1) no dependence
543 on an external macro file, 2) uses only
544 -man macros (although I may be mistaken in this),
545 3) syntax in the SYNOPSIS is a little more
546 in line with standard UNIX documentation, such as
547 bold flags and italicized parameters.
549 Sun Dec 24 10:06:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
551 * Updated INSTALL with information about the
552 --with-locking option.
554 * Fixed the Hesiod tests in configure.in. In
555 systems where res_send was in -lresolv, this
556 information was not being communicated to the
557 HESIOD_LIBS var. Now, if res_send is not found
558 in the default libraries, it's assumed to be
559 in -lresolv, and thus -lresolv is appended to
560 HESIOD_LIBS, which will need that to avoid
561 undefined symbols problems.
563 * Fixed the Kerberos tests in configure.in. New
564 versions of Kerberos 5 have renamed -lcrypto
565 to -lk5crypto (circa krb5 1.1 or thereabouts). The
566 new test tries to determine if -lk5crypto exists. If so,
567 this is a new krb5 system. If not, test for -lcrypto
568 and the rest of old krb5. If that fails, look
569 for a genuine krb4 installation.
571 Fri Dec 22 22:08:51 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
573 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in msgchk.man.
574 -snoop was documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
576 Fri Dec 22 23:42:16 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
578 * Made a new ./configure option called
579 "--with-locking" that allows the file
580 locking mechanism to be chosen there instead of
581 requiring a manual edit of config.h.
583 * If the option is not explicitly set, or an
584 invalid option is specified, "dot" locking is
585 chosen. Valid options are "dot", "fcntl",
586 "flock", and "lockf". We need a way to tell
587 the user that these are the valid options, and
588 change the flag "--with-locking" if it's not
591 Fri Dec 22 19:21:29 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
593 * Remove the lex-specific memory hints at the
594 beginning of sbr/dtimep.lex. We've already
595 committed to supporting flex only, since
596 lex does not easily allow us to parse a single
597 string, as well as other problems documented
598 below and on nmh-workers.
600 * Added a switch statement to configure.in to
601 test for Mac OS X. If this is the case, LDFLAGS
602 should not contain "-s" since the linker rejects
605 * Updated MACHINES to include Mac OS X Public Beta,
606 as well as Linux 2.4 running glibc 2.2.
608 Wed Dec 20 16:00:46 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
610 * Marked deprecated directories in docs/README.developers
611 as deprecated, with pointers to the new code location.
612 Eventually these deprecated directories should go away.
614 Tue Dec 19 19:16:37 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
616 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in inc.man. -snoop was
617 documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
619 Thu Dec 14 14:32:09 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
621 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
622 versions on ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/config, dated
623 12-07-00. This should prevent configure from failing
624 on newer operating systems because config.{guess,sub}
625 couldn't correctly identify them.
627 Thu Dec 14 1:30:44 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
629 * Fixed the circular dependency created when I moved
630 zotnet/mts to mts/generic and merged them into libmts.
631 mts/generic/client.c and mts/generic/mts.c are now in sbr/
632 (and thus in libmh), which makes libmh self-contained and
633 not depending on an external archive.
635 * All include statements now look for mts.h in h/. The
636 Makefiles and configure script have been modified so that
637 mts/generic is no longer built.
639 Mon Dec 11 22:08:07 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
641 * When Shantonu made the new libmts.a, he swapped $(MTSLIB) and
642 libmh.a in sbr/Makefile.in so that libmh.a comes first, but this
643 causes the build to fail on Solaris, because libmts.a has to get
644 ruserpass() out of libmh.a. Swapping them back to the way Ken
645 Hornstein's patch (which I applied on Jul 20) put them, with
646 libmh.a correctly coming second. If there are times when libmts.a
647 needs to come second, then it would appear there's a circular
648 dependency and someone (Shantonu?) did an mts merge incorrectly.
650 Fri Sep 8 01:36:23 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
652 * Took out bad time textual time zones like BST and JST.
653 I found them online somewhere, but am not sure if they're
656 Fri Sep 8 00:36:48 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
658 * Moved zotnet/mts to mts/generic. This code reorganization
659 makes the entire zotnet tree deprecated -- bboards is unneeded,
660 mf was was moved to sbr, tws was rewritten and moved to sbr, and
663 * Created a new static library called libmts.a used during
664 compilation which includes the generic mts code and the
665 smtp/sendmail code. This supercedes the functionality of the
666 old libsmtp.a and the remains of libzot.a.
668 * Updated header includes to reference the new location of mts.h
669 in mts/generic/mts.h. Also, update the configure and top-level
670 Makefile not to descend into zotnet. Also, they don't descend
671 into mts/mmdf and mts/sendmail (the sendmail code has been
672 merged into the smtp code).
674 * Added #include <h/nmh.h> to h/md5.h, since my compile was
675 complaining about implicitly-declared memcpy and memset, which
676 appear to be in strings.h. In any event, nmh.h should take care
679 * When doing a "make nmhdist", notice that the generated
680 snapshot does not include zotnet of the mts directories as noted
681 above. Since they are no longer compiled, and I don't see any
682 obvious code path to get to them, end-users should probably
683 not need them. If you think otherwise, turn Makefile generation
684 back on in configure.in and turn on recursion into those dirs
685 in the appropriate Makefile.in
687 Wed Sep 6 22:40:03 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
689 * Tracked down the problem in the new dtimep where time
690 zones were being radically misreported. It was because the
691 parser knew about military time zones (such as M or E) but in
692 some cases did not know about the textual representation of
693 some zones (like MET). When it encountered one of these, the
694 date parser misread MET as the military time zone T (well, first
695 zone M, then E, and finally T). I took military zones out, and
696 things seem much better. Also, the default behavior of parsing
697 time zones appears to default to GMT in the absence of better
698 info, which is less bogus than assuming the mail came from the
699 current time zone, which was the behavior in 1.04.
701 Thu Aug 10 13:22:13 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
703 * Decided that limiting the message number columns to 3 on my
704 scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD (to try to regain space taken by
705 extra date info) was ill-conceived. It's not that tough to get
706 past 999 messages, though I imagine it's rather rare to exceed
707 9999. Changed these to 4. Also put the "replied / encrypted"
708 column back in YYYYMMDD -- I've never seen it show anything but a
709 space, but that space is useful if you use scan, grep, and awk
710 (with the default field separator) to grab message numbers (I know
711 -- pick should really be used for these purposes...).
713 Mon Aug 7 20:11:09 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
715 * Modify umask set by mhshow to enable user execute bit, so that
716 viewers that create temporary directories (e.g., lynx) will be
719 Thu Aug 03 17:14:08 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
721 * TODO: Allow multiple simultaneous differing contexts, probably
722 each tied to a parent (terminal) process.
724 Tue Aug 1 10:48:05 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
726 * Makefile install rules should not look for generated files in
727 the source tree -- this will happen to work when configuring and
728 building inside the source tree but will fail when using an
729 external build tree. Fixed etc/Makefile.in.
731 Mon Jul 24 16:20:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
733 * When Shantonu wrote the new, more portable dtimep.lex, he left
734 out the #ifdef DSTXXX stuff for some reason. Not a good idea, as
735 that code is required for proper printing of numeric-offset
736 timezones that have daylight saving time. Without that code,
737 -0700 during DST gets printed as MST instead of PDT.
739 * Renamed DSTXXX as ADJUST_NUMERIC_ONLY_TZ_OFFSETS_WRT_DST and
740 added an explanatory comment by its #definition.
742 * Updated README.developers with the fact that zotnet/tws is going away.
744 Thu Jul 20 20:30:52 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
746 * Moved Kimmo's new "--with-hash-backup" to be output with the
747 rest of the --with options in the configure --help output. Also,
748 people did not preserve my alphabetization of the --with options
749 when they added new ones. Re-alphabetized.
751 * One more pass at README.developers now that it's clear that my
752 previously-suggested one-line autoconf-file commit can cause
753 unnecessary local makes and an out-of-sync stamp-h.in file, but
754 would not cause problems for other people using the CVS files.
756 * Ken Hornstein's SASL patch was not integrated properly with
757 Ruud's new merged mts/sendmail code. Kimmo has since fixed nmh so
758 it compiles, but according to Ken, the SASL stuff still does not
759 work. Integrating a patch from him for this.
761 * Last pass at README.developers -- Kimmo's 5-step commit was
762 overkill. You only need 3 steps, since configure.in is the only
763 autoconf file with the RCS $Id keyword.
765 * Applied Kurt J. Lidl <lidl@eng.us.uu.net>'s $MAILHOST patch:
767 I have a small patch that would be nice to be included --
768 basically, it allows the usage of the "MAILHOST" environment
769 variable, without having to have HESIOD turned on. I need
770 this functionality for my environment, where we have identical
771 /usr/local on all my machines (so I cannot just hardcode into
772 the mts.conf file), and I have multiple POP mail servers for
775 Modified inc.man to reflect that along with "pophost:" and -host,
776 $MAILHOST can now activate POP mail inclusion as well.
778 * Fixed warnings from diff on first-time install of nmh. Also
779 added 'echo's clarifying the etc file installation activities.
781 Tue Jul 18 19:36:59 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
783 * Added the answer to Dan's question in README.developers.
785 Mon Jul 17 19:10:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
787 * Clarified and made some corrections to Kimmo's README.developers
788 changes (BTW, if anyone can explain why the RCS Ids are able to cause
789 problems with the dependencies, please fill in the explanation --
790 I never encountered a problem with the old single-commit method).
792 Sat Jul 15 23:13:49 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
794 * Add configure option --with-hash-backup so the backup prefix can
795 be easily changed from "," to "#".
797 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that it works with any make.
799 * Use mkstemp in sbr/lock_file.c.
801 * Commits of autoconf-related files apparently can't all be done
802 in one shot due to RCS Ids changing when committing -- updated
805 Tue Jul 11 14:18:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
807 * Clarified post.man and send.man for those not completely up on
808 SASL terminology. "SASL encryption layers are not supported for
809 SMTP" means that encryption is supported for the authentication
810 but not for the subsequent data stream.
812 Sat Jul 8 01:36:19 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
814 * Applied Ken Hornstein <kenh@cmf.nrl.navy.mil>'s patches
815 implementing SASL support for POP3 and SMTP. If nmh is compiled
816 with SASL support, using the -sasl switch on the inc, msgchk,
817 post, and send commands will enable authentication encryption for
818 SMTP, and both authentication and data stream encryption for POP3.
820 Sat Jun 10 18:37:59 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
822 * Merged mts/sendmail functionality into mts/smtp; switching between
823 smtp and sendmail delivery method is now controlled by mts.conf.
825 * If tsort cannot deal with loops, in addition to defining tsort as
826 cat, also define lorder as echo.
828 * Removed uip/popi.c from list of sources.
830 Thu Jun 08 19:36:57 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
832 * New dtimep.lex didn't parse day names properly. Fixed. Also
833 clarified ambiguous comments preceding day_map[] array (from old
834 dtimep.lex) that probably led to the erroneous cp++ being added.
836 Wed Jun 7 20:52:33 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
838 * Added one more mkstemp invocation to uip/spost.c (which was in a
841 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to clean up permissions handling
842 and error handling in uip/inc.c.
844 Mon Jun 5 22:10:07 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
846 * Use cat instead of tsort if tsort cannot deal with loops in its
847 input (which is the case for tsort from GNU textutils).
849 Mon Jun 5 21:14:36 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
851 * If lockfile is present, and its dotlockfile program is setgid,
852 inc does not need to be setgid.
854 Sun Jun 4 21:35:40 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
856 * Added autoconf test for Miquel van Smoorenburg's liblockfile
857 library, as found on Debian systems.
859 * Added liblockfile support to sbr/lock_file.c.
861 Wed May 31 7:19:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
863 * Fixed up dtimep.lex a bit. Added back memory options for AIX to
864 increase available memory. Took out %option noyywrap, which
865 wasn't understood by AT&T lex, as well as the -i
866 case-insensitivity flag.
868 Wed May 31 07:40:45 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
870 * Added a lint target to the Makefiles and a check in autoconf
871 to determine whether lint or lclint exists on the system.
873 Fri May 30 19:21:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
875 * etc/Makefile.in was incorrectly installing mts.conf.in and
876 sendfiles.in -- fixed. Generated sendfiles script was not a
877 dependency of the `all' target, and was incorrectly included in
878 the distribution. Changed the suffix for the backed-up previous
879 versions of the etc files from the ambiguous .old to .prev. Added
880 call to diff -- only keep the .prev files around if different from
881 the newly-installed versions (intentionally didn't redirect output
882 to /dev/null so you'll notice when your changed versions are
883 getting moved aside).
885 * INSTALL never documented the etc/*.old thing. Documented the
886 new etc/*.prev thing (including a note to watch for diff output).
888 * Applied Alec Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu>'s dropsbr.c patch:
890 In the map_write routine, a call is made to map_open and this
891 call is supposed to set the "clear" variable to 0 or 1,
892 depending on whether the map file is empty or not. In
893 mh6.8.3, this worked because map_open would set "clear" by
894 calling the mbx_Xopen routine. In nmh, the code for mbx_Xopen
895 was merged into mbx_open, but the interface for mbx_open
896 doesn't support the clear variable, so that functionality was
897 lost. The map_open interface still contains "int *clear" in
898 the prototype, but never sets it.
900 My patch eliminates "clear" from the map_open interface (I
901 checked to make sure that map_write is the only client of
902 map_open). Furthermore, my patch also sets the "clear"
903 variable properly at the beginning of map_write by calling
904 fstat(). This eliminates the bug in that the value of "clear"
905 being used later in the routine was just stack garbage.
907 Having a bad value of clear causes this next bug to be
908 triggered: The fp file pointer was being opened with fdopen,
909 but in two of the three switch cases it wasn't being closed.
910 In certain cases, this was causing packf to run out of file
911 descriptors if you attempted to pack a large folder.
913 Mon May 29 7:48:15 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
915 * Moved the date parsing routines from zotnet/tws to sbr/ (and
916 tws.h to h/). Updated all source files to reflect to new location
919 * Rewrote dparsetime (in dtimep.lex -> dtimep.c) to replace the
920 old zotnet/tws/dtimep.c, dtimep.lex, lexstring.c, lexedit.c, and
921 dtimep.c-lexed. It should now work with flex (although untested
922 with lex), and requires no sed-ing. For now, I have the lexed
923 version in the distribution, so that end-users don't need to worry
924 about running it through flex/lex. I have not added back support
925 for guessing the time zone when it's not specified.
927 Sun May 28 17:44:15 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
929 * Added autoconf check for getutent().
931 * Changed uip/rcvtty.c and uip/slocal.c to use getutent() and
932 friends. Since I can only check on Linux, please check if
933 this works on other systems.
935 Sun May 28 14:58:49 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
937 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to uip/scansbr.c for more
938 checks for write failures.
940 * Unlink temporary file properly in uip/rcvtty.c.
942 * Moved viamail from bindir to libdir.
944 * Changed sendfiles into sendfiles.in, so that path to viamail
947 * Added gzip support to sendfiles.
949 * Added References header to replcomps and replgroupcomps.
951 Sun May 28 14:39:31 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
953 * Fixed m_getfld bug which caused segmentation faults when
954 incorporating messages which ended in multiple linefeeds crossing
957 Fri May 26 13:21:59 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
959 * msh has been unable to show MIME messages ever since 1.0. Alec
960 Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu> tracked down the problem to the
961 -show flag being passed to mhshow. mhshow is equivalent to the
962 old mhn -show, so we don't need the -show anymore. Removed it.
964 Fri May 12 02:51:21 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
966 * zotnet/bboards is not longer built by default. Goal is to move
967 the assorted functions in zotnet into sbr or some more logical
970 * Moved zotnet/mf to sbr, and changed mf.h references accordingly,
971 as well as Makefiles.
973 Thu May 11 02:21:34 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
975 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that both SRCS and OBJS aren't
976 seperately and redundantly defined, but so that OBJS is a
977 pattern-substituted version of SRCS with suffix .c -> .o. This
978 should make maintainability easier.
980 * Added section to MACHINES indicating what platforms nmh is known
981 to compile and work on, just to give users peace of mind, or
982 something. This is by no means complete or exhaustive, so add
983 whatever you know works.
985 Tue May 09 20:38:04 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
987 * Alphabetized Shantonu's $pop_kinds output on configure's "pop is
988 enabled" line. If POP3 is the only kind of POP enabled, say so,
989 rather than just saying "yes" (which is ambiguous).
991 * Fixed four warnings in Shantonu's new getpass.c. Needed to
992 #include <stdlib.h> for calloc(), <unistd.h> for ttyname(), and
993 "h/mh.h" for adios(). Also changed ch from char to int to get rid
994 of "comparison is always 1 due to limited range of data type" on EOF.
996 * Added steps to README.developers saying to change the version
997 number to X.Y.Z+dev. Did a little rearranging and changed the FTP
998 dir from /home/ftp to /var/ftp to reflect Doug's new machine.
1000 * Changed configure.in to use gcc -Wall even without
1001 --enable-debug, to prevent developers compiling optimized from
1002 introducing warnings, and to give end-users a warm, fuzzy feeling
1003 as they (hopefully) see no warnings come out (except perhaps on
1004 the lex output file) even with -Wall.
1006 * Renamed getpass() to nmh_getpass() since the prototype for
1007 getpass() varies from OS to OS, and we want to _always_ use our
1008 version of the function. Fixed all the callers to use
1009 nmh_getpass() and added it to prototypes.h. Semi-arbitrarily
1010 upped MAX_PASSWORD_LEN from 128 to 256. buf was being calloc()'d
1011 and the memory leaked -- should have just been declared as static
1012 char array. Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the
1013 copyright message, as this version has been changed significantly
1014 from the BSD version.
1016 * Added "nmh-local functions to use in preference to OS versions"
1017 section to README.developers (currently just says to use
1018 nmh_getpass() instead of system getpass()).
1020 * Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the copyright message
1021 in ruserpass.c also.
1023 * Added mts.conf.5 page per Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s
1026 This happens on solaris:
1029 windex entry incorrect: mts.conf(5) not found.
1030 No manual entry for mts.conf.
1034 % echo ".so man5/mh-tailor.5" > mts.conf.5
1036 done in the man5 directory. We need to add 'mts.conf.5' as a
1037 reference sourcing mh-tailor.5.
1039 Mon May 08 23:51:55 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1041 * Doug informed me that the way I had restored the "lost" version
1042 histories was wrong, because `cvs checkout's of old versions of
1043 nmh wouldn't work properly. It occurs to me that this could be
1044 fixed by simply deleting those tags in the new-location *,v files,
1045 but oh well. I'm putting everything back to the way Doug
1046 originally had it. To get the old version history for a file that
1047 used to be in the top directory, you'll need to "blindly" do a
1048 `cvs log' there (even though you won't have a local copy of the
1049 file in that directory). `cvs diff' will no longer be able to
1050 diff pre-move versions vs. post-move versions -- you'll have to do
1051 a lot of manual gyrations with `cvs checkout' and then use `diff'.
1053 * I had alphabetized the --configure options in the --help output
1054 awhile back, but Shantonu added --enable-apop just under
1055 --enable-pop. Put it in alphabetical order and clarified what
1056 --enable-apop does vs. --enable-pop and --with-krb4. Also changed
1057 --with-mts help line from "mail transport agent" to "mail
1058 transport agent/service" so the 's' in "mts" doesn't seem to come
1061 * Added two steps to "releasing nmh" in README.developers. After
1062 making the tarball, it's a good idea to diff the tree vs. the CVS
1063 tree to make sure no files got left out, and then to chown the
1064 files so that they're owned by root, preventing a Trojaning attack
1065 by a malicious remote user with a UID matching yours.
1067 * Changed DIFFERENCES to say that RPOP is not currently supported
1068 rather than implying it by saying that APOP, KPOP, and POP[3] are.
1070 Sun May 07 18:16:43 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1072 * Imported NetBSD version of getpass() and made extensive
1073 revisions for compatibility with programs that pipe the password
1074 to stdin, such as exmh.
1076 * Removed tests for system ruserpass() which sometimes gave
1077 phantom positive results. Also, bext to use internal functions if

1081 Sat May 06 08:28:09 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1083 * Restored lost version histories for those moved files by doing a
1084 manual `mv' in the CVSROOT on mhost. CVS badly needs a `cvs mv'
1085 command so that you can move files (without having physical access
1086 to the CVSROOT) without losing versioning. Put MACHINES back at
1087 the top level as it needs to be read before building. Fixed DIST
1088 variable in {.,docs}/Makefile.in to reflect that and to add
1089 missing entry for "INSTALL" file.
1091 Sat May 06 13:13:07 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1093 * Re-cleaned up nmh documentation (by moving things to docs
1094 subdir) and modified Makefile & configure.in to handle the change.
1096 Mon Apr 17 21:28:40 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1098 * Scott Blachowicz pointed out that the configure --help output
1099 for --enable-masquerade was misleading. Clarified.
1101 Mon Apr 17 19:01:00 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1103 * APOP support can be compiled in to inc and msgchk using
1106 * To access an APOP host, specify -apop on the command line
1107 along with any -host or -user option.
1109 Fri Apr 14 23:10:44 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1111 * Upped the version number to 1.0.4+dev until the next nmh release.
1113 * Added a "releasing nmh" section to README.developers, while the
1114 process was fresh in my mind.
1116 Fri Apr 14 18:21:34 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1118 * Added new files README.developers, ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6, and
1119 ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html to DIST target in Makefile.in.
1121 * Released nmh-1.0.4.
1123 Tue Apr 11 21:37:03 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1125 * Applied Brian Campbell <bacam@tardis.ed.ac.uk>'s mhn.defaults.sh
1128 It appears that there shouldn't be quotes around the %s in the
1129 iso-8859-1 charset entry; xterm passes the remaining arguments
1130 to the program, quoting them means that xterm thinks they're
1131 part of the program's name.
1133 This %s isn't the same as the "Insert content subtype" one from
1134 mhshow-show-* -- it doesn't come from MIME headers and is safe not
1137 Sun Apr 09 13:03:59 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1139 * added check in fmt_compile() to handle a single-character
1140 format string. fmt_compile() depends on having an array of
1141 format characters with an empty item at the end. A
1142 single-character format would cause programs using this
1143 function to segfault because the algorithm used to decide on
1144 the length of the array mistakenly created a single-item array
1145 when the format string was one character. This eventually
1146 caused problems when the program attempted to test item+1
1149 Thu Apr 06 21:53:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1151 * Richard Coleman threw out a lot of old MH-specific files in nmh.
1152 Much of the stuff, indeed, is not worth saving, but there are
1153 nuggets that are very worthwhile, and should probably be added
1154 back in. Most important, IMHO, are the MH change logs, as they
1155 can help answer questions like "Why is this code like this?" or
1156 "How long has this been broken?" or "What was this ever used for?"
1158 I've added a new file to the nmh tree called
1159 ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6. It's cobbled together from the
1160 mh-6.8.4/papers/mh*/MHCHANGES files. I've re-ordered the entries
1161 to go from newest at the top to oldest at the bottom to match the
1162 ChangeLog convention. Unfortunately there are no change logs for
1163 versions of MH prior to 3 in the MH tar files available at
1164 <ftp://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/mh>. Also, it appears to me that there
1165 are MH-6.6 changes that aren't documented in the logs.
1167 I've also added ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html. This is
1168 based on mh-6.8.4/papers/changes/mh-changes.ms. The nroff format
1169 and its "catman"-type output are a pain to deal with, but I was
1170 loath to throw away the formatting, so I converted the file to
1171 HTML. The only actual markup in the body are the "<B>" and "<U>"
1172 tags, and "<" and ">" instead of '<' and '>', so it's quite
1173 doable to view the file in plain ASCII mode as well. Note that
1174 some of the changes this file documents as having been made in
1175 MH-6.8.4 may not be present in nmh -- Richard started with 6.8.3
1176 and later put in certain 6.8.4 stuff.
1178 Wed Apr 05 21:09:28 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1180 * Applied Eric Schnoebelen <eric@cirr.com>'s mhshowsbr.c patch
1181 fixing apparent bugs in Dan Winship's new security quoting code:
1183 Since upgrading, I've been getting the following errors
1184 while attempting to process some MIME messages:
1186 (1) Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
1191 (2) line 1/10 (END)Segmentation fault (core dumped)
1193 (2) appears to be due to the testing of an unset pointer in
1194 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux(). (1) appears to be caused by
1195 mis-quoting a filename being handed to the shell in
1196 mhshowsbr.c:show_content_aux().
1198 Resolving the pointer reference issue in
1199 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux() turned up a similar mis-quoting
1200 problem in the routine.
1202 Tue Mar 28 16:17:39 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1204 * Applied Todd.Miller@courtesan.com's patch to dropsbr.c to
1205 prevent core dumping on packf. Here's the note from his message:
1207 Since sizeof(buffer) == sizeof(tmpbuffer) packf will dump
1208 core on a file w/o a From line with a line >= BUFSIZ.
1209 I noticed this because I had a junk file in my mail
1212 Fri Mar 17 11:59:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1214 * wesley.craig@umich.edu did not document his previous KPOP patch,
1215 so I did so, and asked him to check what I wrote. Unfortunately
1216 he didn't notice my misunderstanding of his patch. I wrote that
1217 if you #define POPSERVICE "kpop", inc and msgchk will use KPOP
1218 exclusively, but if you leave it as "pop3", you can use Wesley's
1219 new -kpop switch on a given invocation. Instead, however, -kpop
1220 turned out to be necessary on every invocation, and a KPOP user
1221 complained. Applied Wesley's new patch, which makes things work
1222 like I thought his original patch did. After that, did one more
1223 clarifying pass to the documentation in inc.man and msgchk.man.
1225 Wed Mar 15 18:45:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1227 * When I fixed the long-standing makedir() bugs in January, I had
1228 the code call strtoul(..., 0), which I believed to be safe as all
1229 modes specified as ASCII constants in the nmh code started with a
1230 leading zero (signifying octal), which I did as it would work if
1231 internal constants were ever changed to hex. Unfortunately I was
1232 unaware of the "Folder-Protect:" .mh_profile entry, which
1233 mh-profile.man documents as an octal-only constant, with no
1234 leading zero required. I've changed the strtoul() call to an
1235 atooi() call and removed the misleading leading zeroes on the
1236 ASCII octal constants in the code and man pages. Also changed the
1237 "Folder-Protect:" example in the man page to something more
1238 interesting than a duplication of the default.
1240 * When I added my --enable-masquerade option, you'll note that I
1241 didn't make it --enable-nmh-masquerade. I find the --enable-nmh-*
1242 options too wordy and I'm not sure why Richard went that route.
1243 I've renamed them to just --enable-*, but the old versions will
1244 still work as well (they just aren't advertised).
1246 * Added a line to the "nmh configuration" output saying whether
1249 * Added a new README.developers file. From the file:
1251 This file is intended to provide a few tips for anyone doing
1252 development on nmh. Developers who learn things "the hard
1253 way" about the nmh codebase (as opposed to local info best
1254 encoded in a comment) are encouraged to share their wisdom
1257 Currently the topics are "autoconf files" and "directory structure".
1259 Tue Mar 14 12:41:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1261 * Applied, after some finessing,
1262 Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s --with-smtpservers patch:
1264 Here's a patch that allows you to add
1266 --with-smtpservers=<some.host.name>
1268 to the ./configure command line to set the "servers: " line in
1269 etc/mts.conf. Around here, we use "mailhost" so that all
1270 machines in the current domain just talk to a central machine
1271 and nothing else runs an MTA. Now, I can use
1273 --with-smtpservers=mailhost
1275 instead of having to remember to fix this by hand (and often
1276 forgetting to do so!).
1278 * Inspired by Simon's patch, added an --enable-masquerade option
1279 to configure. It will set the "masquerade:" line of mts.conf.
1280 You may specify a subset of the three types of masquerading, like
1281 --enable-masquerade="draft_from mmailid", or leave off explicit
1282 arguments to enable all three types.
1284 * Alphabetized the --enable and --with options in configure.in and
1285 INSTALL and added documentation of the two new options to the latter.
1287 * Added new dependency for mts.conf: Makefile. If this isn't
1288 done, then when you reconfigure nmh with new values for
1289 --enable-masquerade or --with-smtpservers, you'll fail to get an
1290 updated copy of mts.conf.
1292 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtimep.lex patch:
1294 It seems that some MUA's didn't handle y2k very well - ELM
1295 seems to be one of them, and Ultrix's DXmail (based on MH!).
1296 I've got a few emails this month that look like:
1298 575 Jan 00 Xxxxxx Xxxx 3603 ...
1300 22+ Jan 00 Xxx Xxxxx 1771 ...
1302 The first has "15 Jan 100" as the date and the second has
1303 "19 Jan 00" as the date. The following works around this so
1304 that scan, show, sortm, etc work ok.
1306 I put Simon's patch under the control of a new #define called
1307 FIX_NON_Y2K_COMPLIANT_MUA_DATES. There's some commentary in
1308 acconfig.h about when you might not want to #define it.
1310 * Created new dtimep.c-lexed with Simon's change using dtimep.lex
1311 lexed on Solaris 2.6. Added missing dependency in
1312 zotnet/tws/Makefile.in for dtimep.c: dtimep.c-lexed.
1314 * Added scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD format files.
1316 Mon Mar 13 21:32:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1318 * Applied Sullivan N. Beck <sbeck@cise.ufl.edu>'s mhshow-suffix patch:
1320 With the patch below, you can add lines like:
1322 mhshow-suffix-application/msword: .doc
1323 mhshow-suffix-application/PostScript: .ps
1325 to the mhn.defaults file to append the given suffix to a
1326 scratch file. This allows applications which require a
1327 certain suffix to run properly.
1329 * Removed -force_html from lynx entry in mhn.defaults.sh (I
1330 believe older versions of lynx lack that option) and added
1331 "mhshow-suffix-text/html: .html".
1333 * Modified username_extension masquerading to only use the
1334 extended address on generated [Resent-]From: lines and SMTP
1335 envelope From:. With Neil's original implementation, nmh's global
1336 idea of the username was changed, which would result in inc lying
1337 and saying you had no new mail because it was looking for a
1338 mailbox called, for instance, "dan-nmh" (where username was "dan"
1339 and $USERNAME_EXTENSION was "-nmh").
1341 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtime.c patch:
1343 There's a wrap-around problem that affects the implementation
1344 of Zeller's congruence in dtime.c. This causes the day-of-week
1345 calculations to fail for dates after Feb 29, 2000 (probably up
1346 until some year far in the future).
1348 Mon Mar 06 12:20:20 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1350 * Applied Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s msh.c patch:
1352 I finally tracked down the problem in msh that was causing
1353 errors whenever I tried to examine a 'mmdf' style mailbox.
1355 It turns out that not enough memory was being allocated with
1356 calloc(), causing memory pointers to be overwritten and
1359 Fri Mar 03 16:07:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1361 * Changed the new "plussed_user" option to mts.conf's
1362 "masquerade:" to "username_extension" after getting feedback from
1363 qmail users, who use '-' as a separator rather than '+'. Removed
1364 checking of $USERPLUS variable. Now check $USERNAME_EXTENSION,
1365 which needs to include the appropriate separator for your MTA
1366 ('-', '+', or whatever) as its first character.
1368 Thu Mar 02 23:04:30 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1370 * Added a new "boolean" type to mh.h and TRUE and FALSE constants.
1372 * Added a note to DIFFERENCES stating that it's out-of-date
1373 (Richard was the last one to update it) and that we should
1374 consider only documenting incompatibilities with MH there.
1376 * Implemented (and documented) a third kind of username
1377 masquerading: "plussed user" masquerading. This one was suggested
1378 by Neil Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>. It's based on sendmail's
1379 "plussed user" feature, where mail sent to <user>+<string> will be
1380 delivered to <user>. When it's enabled, it's controlled by the
1381 $USERPLUS environment variable. How is it enabled? Well, that
1384 * Renamed the "mmailid:" setting in mts.conf to "masquerade:", and
1385 changed it so that rather than being a boolean, it can be set to
1386 any combination of the three values "draft_from", "mmailid", and
1387 "plussed_user". Thus it is now possible to enable the three types
1388 of masquerading individually.
1390 * Fixed a bug with "mmailid" masquerading (dating back to MH?)
1391 where if it was turned on, ','s would no longer be considered
1392 GECOS field delimiters.
1394 Wed Mar 01 23:30:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1396 * Changed the GECOS-field '&' translation behavior to be
1397 controlled by the BSD42 #define rather than GCOS_HACK, since it's
1398 apparently always appropriate on OSes where BSD42 is #defined, and
1399 never appropriate on any other OSes. Thanks to Kimmo Suominen for
1400 responding to my "What is this code here for?" comment in mts.c
1401 and explaining the feature.
1403 Mon Feb 28 21:50:29 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1405 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3+dev (ideally this should be
1406 done by whoever makes a release tar file, immediately after doing
1409 * Applied Paul Fox <pgf-spam@foxharp.boston.ma.us>'s scansbr.c
1410 patch, posted to comp.mail.mh, which he says prevents loss of mail
1411 when inc'ing into a full filesystem.
1413 * Changed "echo > stamp-h.in" in Makefile.in to "date > stamp-h.in"
1414 so that stamp-h.in will be different each time configure.in and
1415 related files are changed, making it easier to check it in (which
1416 is necessary to prevent unnecessary autoconf calls).
1418 * My declaration of initgroups() in slocal.c to eliminate the "no
1419 prototype" warning wasn't portable (FreeBSD 3.[23] choked). Now
1420 use AC_EGREP_HEADER to see where initgroups() is declared, if
1423 Sun Feb 20 12:17:15 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1425 * Fix security hole in mhshowsbr.c which allowed untrusted shell
1426 code to be executed.
1428 * Released nmh 1.0.3.
1430 Thu Feb 10 10:54:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1432 * Oops. %-escapes on mhstore lines in mhn.defaults.sh should not
1433 be surrounded by single quotes, as a shell is not spawned when
1434 just saving files, and the filenames will end up with literal
1435 quotes embedded in them.
1437 Fri Feb 04 12:29:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1439 * Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
1440 got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
1441 the -help output. One theory is that they were making reference
1442 to the fact that clearly you know about the -help option since
1443 you're currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea
1444 to overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
1445 supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
1448 The other theory is that because you can say something like
1449 "mhstore -" and get "mhstore: - ambiguous. It matches" followed
1450 by the same list of switches you get with -help, they were saying
1451 you can "sorta" abbreviate "-help" as "-". You don't get the
1452 "Usage:" string, though, so it's not really the same thing.
1454 Thu Feb 03 17:52:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1456 * Applied wesley.craig@umich.edu's KPOP patches. According to him:
1458 The following patch fixes a problem with requesting a
1459 service key for a machine that has multiple 'A' records. It
1460 also makes "-kpop" a command line option, for users who
1461 would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".
1463 Did no testing of the new features, as I don't have access to a
1466 * Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
1468 * Modified INSTALL and config.h.in to reflect the new -kpop feature.
1470 Fri Jan 28 17:39:24 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1472 * All %-escapes in mhn.defaults that actually expand to something
1473 should be surrounded by single quotes. Added quotes to the ones
1474 in mhn.defaults.sh that were missing them.
1476 * Added check for lynx to write mhshow-show-text/html line in
1479 Thu Jan 27 12:22:25 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1481 * makedir() had multiple bugs dating back to MH. An octal
1482 constant was apparently being interpreted as decimal, resulting in
1483 directories with no user read or execute permissions, making
1484 nested directory creation fail. And there wasn't even an
1485 _attempt_ to set desired permissions (e.g. from "Folder-Protect:"
1486 in .mh_profile) on the outer directories of a nested directory.
1488 * A second `make install' would always fail because the check for
1489 whether mh_profile.5 existed was written incorrectly.
1491 Wed Jan 26 02:22:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1493 * Added documentation on both types of masquerading to post's man
1496 Tue Jan 25 22:58:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1498 * Doug's portability fix of my setgid inc autodetection had a
1499 caching bug -- if you re-ran configure, uip/Makefile would be
1500 corrupted, and installation would bomb out on OSes where inc needs
1503 * Implemented a new kind of email address masquerading. Usually,
1504 when a user writes a custom "From:" header in a draft, nmh uses it
1505 rather than generating one. However, the user's true address is
1506 used in the SMTP envelope "From:" and is revealed in the "Sender:"
1507 header. Now, when mmailid is set to non-zero, the envelope
1508 "From:" uses the address specified in the draft "From:" header,
1509 and there is no "Sender:" header. This is useful when sending on
1510 behalf of a remote POP3 account or when remote mail robots
1511 incorrectly use the envelope "From:" in preference to the body
1512 "From:". This processing has only been implemented for post, not
1513 for the undocumented spost (which was already missing some "From:"
1514 processing that post has).
1516 Mon Jan 24 22:26:06 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1518 * Got rid of the rest of the gcc -Wall warnings that I didn't have
1519 time for on 1999-07-15 (and, it would seem, some new ones people
1520 introduced since then). The primary ones were the warnings that
1521 default prototypes were being used for [v]snprintf() and
1522 str[n]casecmp(). As of right now, there are _no_ compilation
1523 warnings except on dtimep.c-lexed (at least under AIX 4.1.5 and
1526 Sun Jan 2 23:42:18 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1528 * Move mhtest from bindir to libdir.
1530 * Move sendfiles from libdir to bindir.
1532 * Updated sendfiles manpage to reflect this change.
1534 * Added documentation for -build and -file switches to repl and
1535 forw manpages (patch from Peter Maydell).
1537 * Fixed interaction between specifying -cc in profile and -group on
1540 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1542 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
1543 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
1544 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
1547 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1549 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
1550 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
1551 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
1552 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
1553 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
1554 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).
1556 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1558 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
1560 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1562 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
1563 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
1564 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
1565 caught again. This works for now.
1567 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
1569 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1571 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
1572 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
1574 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1576 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
1577 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
1579 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
1581 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
1583 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1585 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
1586 changes. Both need more cleanup.
1588 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1590 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
1591 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
1592 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
1593 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
1594 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
1597 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1599 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
1600 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
1601 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
1603 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
1604 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
1607 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1609 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
1610 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
1611 to a directory on another device with more free space.
1613 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1615 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
1616 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
1618 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1620 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
1623 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
1624 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
1626 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
1627 macros, regardless of platform.
1629 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
1630 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1632 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
1633 with x-conversions=gzip.
1635 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1637 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
1640 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
1641 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
1642 implicit definition of ioctl().
1644 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
1645 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
1646 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
1647 want to mess with them.
1649 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1651 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
1652 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
1654 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
1655 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
1657 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
1658 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
1659 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
1661 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
1662 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
1663 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
1665 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
1666 function initgroups.
1668 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
1671 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
1672 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
1675 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
1676 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
1679 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
1680 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
1684 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1686 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
1687 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
1688 preventing compilation on at least linux.
1690 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
1691 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
1693 Thu Sep 09 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1695 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
1697 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
1698 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
1699 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
1700 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
1702 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
1703 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
1705 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1707 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
1709 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1711 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
1712 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
1714 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1716 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
1717 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
1719 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
1720 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
1721 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
1722 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
1724 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
1725 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
1727 Sat Jun 09 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1729 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
1730 substitute it for mktemp if available.
1732 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1734 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
1735 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
1738 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
1740 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
1742 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
1744 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
1745 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
1747 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
1748 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
1749 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
1751 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
1752 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
1753 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
1755 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
1756 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
1757 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1759 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
1760 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
1763 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
1764 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1766 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
1767 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1769 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
1770 <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1772 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
1773 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
1774 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1776 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
1777 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1779 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
1780 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
1781 <elleron@servtech.com>.
1783 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
1784 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
1787 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
1788 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
1790 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
1791 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
1792 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
1793 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
1795 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
1796 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
1798 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1802 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
1803 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
1804 would not be changed.
1806 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
1807 one from the Apache web server.
1809 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
1810 (this should have been done a long time ago).
1812 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
1813 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
1814 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
1816 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
1818 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
1820 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
1821 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
1824 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
1825 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
1826 removes a bad race condition.
1828 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
1831 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
1832 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
1833 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
1835 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
1836 sequence information.
1838 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
1839 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
1841 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
1844 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
1847 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
1849 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
1850 interpret 034 as octal.
1852 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
1854 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
1855 mhstore, and mhbuild.
1857 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
1858 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
1860 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
1861 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
1863 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
1864 in the c_cefile structure when building.
1866 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
1867 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
1869 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
1870 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
1871 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
1873 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
1874 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
1875 and mhshow. Updated man pages
1877 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
1879 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
1881 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
1882 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
1885 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
1887 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
1888 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
1890 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
1891 header field information.
1893 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
1894 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
1896 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
1897 values when parsing a content.
1899 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
1900 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
1902 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
1903 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
1905 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
1906 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1908 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
1909 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
1911 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
1913 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
1915 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
1917 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
1919 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
1920 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
1923 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
1924 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
1926 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
1927 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
1928 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
1929 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
1930 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
1931 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
1934 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1936 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
1937 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
1938 buffer length checks for this parameter.
1940 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
1941 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
1943 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1945 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
1946 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
1947 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
1948 of the limits on the length of command lines.
1950 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
1951 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
1954 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
1955 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
1956 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
1957 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
1960 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1962 * Released nmh-0.27.
1964 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
1965 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
1967 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
1968 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
1969 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
1970 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
1973 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
1974 mhbuild returns an error.
1976 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
1977 rename the draft file.
1979 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
1980 use a global variable.
1982 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
1983 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
1985 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
1986 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
1988 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
1989 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
1990 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
1992 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
1993 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
1995 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
1996 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
1999 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
2000 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
2003 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
2004 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
2006 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
2007 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
2008 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
2010 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
2011 to new function output_content_folder.
2013 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
2014 new function output_content_file.
2016 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
2017 to new function parse_format_string.
2019 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
2020 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
2021 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
2022 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
2024 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
2025 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
2026 message/external file from ftp.
2028 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
2029 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
2030 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
2032 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
2033 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
2036 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
2039 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
2040 new file mhstoresbr.c
2042 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
2045 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
2046 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
2048 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
2049 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
2051 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
2052 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
2053 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
2055 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
2057 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
2059 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
2060 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
2063 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
2064 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
2066 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
2069 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
2071 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2073 * Released nmh-0.26.
2075 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
2076 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
2077 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
2078 is still the same (dashstuffing).
2080 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
2081 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
2082 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
2083 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
2084 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
2086 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
2087 But it is not on by default.
2089 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
2090 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
2092 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
2094 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
2096 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
2098 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
2100 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
2101 number of the "cur" message when packing.
2103 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2105 * Released nmh-0.25.
2107 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
2108 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
2109 uses the original name of the library.
2111 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
2112 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
2115 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
2116 list_content and list_debug.
2118 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
2120 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
2121 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.
2123 1998-02-27 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2125 * Released nmh-0.24.
2127 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
2129 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
2130 are given, that order doesn't matter.
2132 * Fix bug in seq_list.c when realloc'ing for
2133 large sequence line.
2135 1998-02-23 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2137 * Released nmh-0.23.
2139 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
2141 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
2142 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan
2143 content, decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary
2144 string). I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
2146 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
2147 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
2150 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
2152 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
2154 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
2156 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
2157 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
2159 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
2160 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.
2162 * Add note to MACHINES file that on Linux, configure
2163 doesn't find the functions sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
2165 * Fix configuration for machines that don't have (or find)
2166 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
2168 1998-02-11 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2170 * Released nmh-0.22.
2172 * Add a configure check for sigsetjmp. Add some conditional
2173 #define's in h/signals.h in case it's not found.
2175 * Added additional notes about -auto switch in mhn man page.
2177 * Added note about MM_CHARSET environment variable to
2178 mh-profile(5) man page.
2180 * Fix signal problem in mhn.c (change setjmp/longjmp to
2181 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp).
2183 1998-02-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2185 * Released nmh-0.22-pre1.
2187 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
2188 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
2190 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
2192 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
2193 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
2194 entry point for parsing MIME files.
2196 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
2197 source message on the standard input.
2199 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
2201 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
2202 rather than -rfc934mode.
2204 * Fix mhbuild, so that Content-Description and RFC-822 comments
2205 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
2208 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
2209 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).
2211 * Restore HP specific code to zotnet/tws/lexstring.c. Apparently
2214 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2216 * Released nmh-0.21.
2218 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
2219 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.
2221 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what transfer
2224 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what character set
2225 to use for text contents.
2227 * Removed old hpux specific code from zotnet/tws/lexstring.c
2229 1998-02-02 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2231 * Released nmh-0.21-pre2.
2233 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
2235 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
2236 header fields as per RFC-2047.
2238 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
2239 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
2240 spaces between encoded word are.
2242 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
2244 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
2245 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
2247 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
2248 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
2249 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
2251 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
2253 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
2254 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
2256 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.
2258 * Added support for %(decode) to fmtdump.c.
2260 * check_charset() now accepts US-ASCII as a subset of any
2261 ISO-8859-X character set.
2263 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
2266 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
2267 permissions, not write permissions.
2269 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
2270 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
2272 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
2275 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2277 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
2279 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
2280 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
2282 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
2283 message contains valid character set.
2285 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
2286 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
2288 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
2289 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
2291 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
2292 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
2293 between an encoded word and normal text.
2295 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
2296 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
2298 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
2299 as a RFC-2047 header field.
2301 * The command install-mh now recognizes the switches -version
2304 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
2305 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
2308 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
2309 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
2311 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
2312 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
2314 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
2316 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2318 * Released nmh-0.20.
2320 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
2322 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.
2324 * Changed the default format file for mhl (mhl.format) to
2325 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
2326 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
2328 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
2329 and the To: line was missing.
2331 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
2333 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2335 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
2337 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
2338 watch the POP transaction.
2340 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
2341 first, and use it if available.
2343 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
2344 first, and use it if available.
2346 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2348 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
2350 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
2351 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
2352 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
2355 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
2356 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
2357 returns the state FLDPLUS.
2359 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
2360 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
2363 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
2365 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
2366 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
2368 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
2370 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
2371 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
2373 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
2374 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
2375 message to which you are replying.
2377 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
2378 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
2379 making group replies.
2381 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
2383 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2385 * Released nmh-0.19.
2387 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
2388 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
2390 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
2391 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
2392 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
2393 to the end of the man page.
2395 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
2396 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
2397 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
2398 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
2399 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
2400 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
2402 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
2405 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
2406 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
2407 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
2409 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
2410 the next available number above the message number you wish
2413 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
2414 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
2416 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
2417 file sbr/seq_print.c
2419 * flist will now update the current folder.
2421 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
2422 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
2423 but now undocumented.
2425 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
2428 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
2429 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
2431 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
2433 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
2434 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
2436 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2438 * Released nmh-0.18.
2440 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
2441 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
2442 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
2444 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
2445 retains the public/private status of sequences.
2447 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
2448 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
2449 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
2450 previous public/private status.
2452 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
2455 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
2458 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
2459 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
2460 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
2462 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
2463 take option to determine whether it should get current
2464 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
2465 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
2467 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
2469 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
2470 wait for stopped processes.
2472 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
2473 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
2475 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2477 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
2479 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
2480 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
2482 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
2483 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
2485 * Change the way that memory for message status is
2486 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
2487 the folder/message structure. This required changing
2488 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
2490 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
2493 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
2496 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
2498 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
2499 the debugging output.
2501 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
2502 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
2504 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2506 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
2508 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
2509 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
2511 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
2513 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
2514 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
2515 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
2516 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
2517 in the given sequence.
2519 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
2520 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
2521 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
2522 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
2523 subdirectories of a given directory.
2525 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
2526 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
2527 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
2529 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
2530 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
2532 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
2534 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
2537 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
2538 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
2539 fields are now calculated at runtime.
2541 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
2542 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
2543 are calculated at runtime.
2545 Sun Nov 30 19:14:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2547 * Released nmh-0.18-pre2.
2549 * Add paragraph to man page for install-mh and to INSTALL file
2550 about checking for global mh.profile.
2552 * Renamed m_find() to context_find().
2553 Renamed m_replace() to context_replace().
2554 Renamed m_delete() to context_del().
2555 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
2556 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
2557 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
2559 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
2560 adding message to folder itself.
2562 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
2563 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
2564 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
2567 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
2568 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
2571 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
2572 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
2573 is the same as the direct smtp code).
2575 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
2576 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
2578 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
2579 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
2580 code to use it yet).
2582 Thu Nov 13 18:42:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2584 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.
2586 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never
2587 called with a value larger than 30 mintues.
2589 * Fixed race condition in rmm and refile, so that
2590 context is updated before external rmmproc is called.
2592 * Removed all the OVERHEAD code.
2594 * Move code to add message to folder from refile.c
2597 Fri Jul 25 19:39:29 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2599 * Did some rearranging of the internals of inc.c.
2601 * Make -inplace the default for anno, forw, dist, and repl.
2603 * Changed --enable-smtp to --with-mts={smtp,sendmail}
2605 * Created new directory mts/sendmail for direct sendmail
2606 interface (although it currently still uses SMTP).
2608 * Removed all the TMA (trusted mail agent) code
2610 * Removed all the TTYD (terminal access daemon) code
2612 * Removed all the MF (uucp filtering) code.
2614 * Removed all the code for BERK.
2616 * Removed all the code for stand-alone delivery (MHMTS).
2618 * Split the file mts/sendmail/smail.c into sendmail.c and
2619 smtp.c. Changed the name of the directory to mts/smtp.
2621 * Changed autoconf to use @sysconfdir@ for location of
2622 configuration files.
2624 * Changed #define in mhn.c from FTP to BUILTIN_FTP.
2626 Mon Jul 21 03:22:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2628 * Released nmh-0.17.
2630 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
2632 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
2633 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
2635 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
2638 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
2639 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
2641 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
2642 number of refiled message.
2644 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
2646 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
2647 for return value of wait().
2649 * Change configure to also check /bin for "more".
2651 Sat Jul 12 00:02:23 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2653 * Released nmh-0.16.
2655 Mon Jun 23 20:13:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2657 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
2659 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
2660 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
2661 deal with binary messages, yet).
2663 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
2665 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
2667 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
2668 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
2669 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
2670 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
2671 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
2672 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
2674 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
2675 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
2677 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
2678 From MH-6.8.4 patch.
2680 * Fix double free of ctinfo in user_content when using
2681 #forw with single message. From John MacMillan (and
2684 * Changed -mhnproc switch for show, to -showmimeproc.
2686 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".
2688 * Added "mime" option to "whatnow", which calls the program
2689 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
2692 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
2695 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
2697 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
2698 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
2699 which used unsigned chars by default.
2701 Sat Jun 21 01:21:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2703 * Released nmh-0.15.
2705 * Added new form "scan.unseen" to distribution. It marks messages
2706 which are in any sequence in Unseen-Sequence.
2708 * Do some rearranging of date/time code in zotnet/tws/dtime.c
2710 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
2712 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
2715 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
2716 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
2717 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
2719 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
2720 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
2722 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
2724 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
2725 they conflict with defines on AIX.
2727 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
2728 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
2729 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
2730 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
2732 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
2733 and put in own subroutine.
2735 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
2736 and put in own subroutine.
2738 * Moved code to remove messages from folder into own
2739 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and
2740 refile.c to use new routine.
2742 Fri May 16 06:09:31 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2744 * Renamed m_seqok to seq_nameok.
2746 * Changed m_setunseen, msh, mshcmds, flist, and scan to use
2749 * Changed m_seqflag to return the number of a sequence rather
2750 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
2751 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
2753 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
2756 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before
2757 adding message to sequence.
2759 * Renamed function m_setvis to m_setunseen, and renamed
2760 corresponding file in sbr.
2762 * Renamed function m_setseq to m_setprev, and renamed corresponding
2765 * Changed mark.c and pick.c to use m_seqaddsel and m_seqdelsel.
2767 * Added new function m_seqdelsel to m_seqdel.c, which deletes
2768 all selected messages from a sequence.
2770 * Added new function m_seqaddsel to m_seqadd.c, which adds all
2771 selected messages to a sequence.
2773 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,
2776 Thu May 15 00:53:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2778 * Renamed function pack_folder to m_packfolder, and moved it
2779 from uip/folder.c into its own file sbr/m_packfolder.c
2781 Wed May 14 23:38:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2783 * Changed function m_gmsg to m_readfolder. Renamed file
2784 sbr/m_gmsg.c to sbr/m_readfolder.c.
2786 Mon May 5 19:57:11 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2788 * Expanded rcvtty man page, and added small patch from
2789 MH-6.8.4 distribution.

2793 * Released nmh-0.14.
2795 * Comment out configure test and code for tgetent to allocate its
2796 own termcap buffer when passed a NULL argument.
2798 Sat Apr 26 03:46:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2800 * Added new options `-checkmime', `-nocheckmime', and `-mhnproc'
2801 to show. Restructured code to handle options to various
2802 `procs' better. Deprecated `-noshowproc' option and NOMHNPROC
2803 environment variable.
2805 * Added new man page `mh-draft' which documents the
2806 draft folder facility in nmh.
2808 * Renamed fmtsbr.h to fmt_scan.h. Renamed fmtcompile.h
2811 * split fmtsbr.c into fmt_scan.c and fmt_new.c. Renamed
2812 fmtcompile.c to fmt_compile.c, and formataddr.c to
2815 * `send -help' wasn't showing the -(no)mime and -split
2818 Fri Apr 25 02:50:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2820 * Released nmh-0.13.
2822 * Changed mhpath so it doesn't abort if a message sequence
2823 such as "mhpath all" expands to more than 1000 messages.
2824 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
2825 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
2828 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
2829 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
2831 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2833 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if
2834 necessary. So `folders' can now handle more than 300 folders.
2836 Tue Apr 22 14:01:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2838 * Change configure to use a compile check to see if the tm struct
2839 has tm_gmtoff, rather than using egrep.

2867 will suppress the display of the message header.
2869 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
2871 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c
2872 and mshcmds.c, rather than hard coding in /bin/cat.
2874 * Add mhnproc to the list of `procs' in mh-profile.man.
2876 * Add configure test for lorder and tsort commands.
2878 * Commented out the padding in the `msgs` struct in h/mh.h

2883 * Add note to man page for mhmail that zero length messages are
2884 not sent. Need to use -body "" to send empty messages.
2886 * zotnet/mts/mts.c : compare character with '\0', not NULL.
2888 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
2890 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
2891 folder/message structure when done with folder.
2893 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is
2894 defined even if message is missing "From " line.
2896 Mon Mar 31 03:37:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2898 * Released nmh-0.10.

2908 The "From " line is now removed from all messages.
2910 * inc now saves the date from the "From " envelope in the
2911 Delivery-Date header for all messages.
2913 * sbr/m_getfld.c: Clean up processing of Return-Path and

2916 Mon Mar 17 19:03:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2918 * client.c: cast iaddr to int before comparing return value
2919 of inet_addr with NOTOK.
2921 Tue Mar 11 04:38:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2923 * Grep test for signal names was failing on some OS'es because
2924 of missing tabs in regex.

2953 * rcvtty.c : Changed to use #define UTMP_FILE (if exists) rather
2954 than hard coded "/etc/utmp".
2956 * Released nmh-0.08.
2958 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
2959 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of
2960 locking database itself.
2962 Thu Feb 27 05:28:09 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2964 * Added slocal action `mmdf' to deliver to a file in mmdf format.
2966 * Changed the slocal actions `file' and `>' to always deliver in
2967 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
2970 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
2971 rather than mmdf format.
2973 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
2974 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
2975 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
2976 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
2978 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
2980 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2982 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
2985 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2986 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2987 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
2989 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2990 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2991 rcvpack so you can choose the preferred format.
2993 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2995 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
2996 can still easily change this in config.h).
2998 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
2999 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
3000 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
3002 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3004 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather
3005 than tzset and external timezone variable.

3016 Tue Feb 11 01:29:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3018 * Add check to configure, so that if ruserpass, or _ruserpass
3019 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
3021 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
3022 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
3025 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
3026 built-in FTP client in mhn.

3039 * Released nmh-0.06.
3041 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
3042 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
3044 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
3045 many such machines around anymore.
3047 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
3048 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
3050 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
3051 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
3053 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3055 * Check lex generated file in zotnet/tws and use
3056 pre-generated version if necessary.
3058 * Released nmh-0.05.
3060 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
3061 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
3062 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
3063 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
3065 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
3066 be linked in one pass.
3068 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3070 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
3071 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
3073 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3075 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
3077 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3079 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
3080 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
3081 become the current folder.
3083 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3085 * Released nmh-0.04.
3087 * Define ospeed and PC in termsbr.c is OS doesn't have
3090 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3092 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
3093 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
3094 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
3096 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3098 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
3099 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
3101 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3103 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
3104 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
3107 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
3108 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
3110 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3112 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
3113 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
3114 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
3115 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
3116 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
3117 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
3119 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3121 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
3122 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
3124 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
3125 a file (currently need to specify full path).
3127 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3129 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
3130 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
3132 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3134 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
3135 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
3136 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
3138 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3140 * Released nmh-0.03.
3142 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
3143 .mh_sequence file existed.
3145 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
3146 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
3148 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
3149 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
3152 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3154 * Changed flist option -unseen to -[no]all. Cleaned up
3157 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3159 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
3160 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
3161 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
3163 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3165 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
3166 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
3167 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
3169 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3171 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL
3172 and allocate its own buffer. Borrowed from zsh.
3174 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
3176 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3178 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
3179 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
3180 directory from where the source code is located.
3182 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3184 * Released nmh-0.02.
3186 Wed Jan 1 17:41:52 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

3191 Tue Dec 31 03:07:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3193 * Changed code to use strerror, rather than using sys_errlist
3194 and sys_nerr directly.
3196 Mon Dec 30 02:15:25 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3198 * -compat switch from install-mh removed.
3200 * Changed the default POP port from "pop" to "pop3".
3202 Sat Dec 28 13:25:05 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3204 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
3205 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
3206 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
3207 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
3208 rather than in script.
3210 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3212 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
3214 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with
3215 macro defined on Solaris.
3217 Thu Dec 26 02:50:15 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3219 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
3220 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
3222 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
3223 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
3224 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
3225 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
3228 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3230 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
3231 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.
3233 * Fixed configure test so that termcap variable ospeed is
3236 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3238 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
3240 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included
3241 in mhn.c. Changed md5 to use memset and memcpy.
3243 Fri Dec 20 02:29:37 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3245 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
3246 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
3248 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3250 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
3251 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
3252 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
3253 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
3254 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
3255 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
3257 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3259 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
3261 * Released nmh-0.01.
3263 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
3264 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
3265 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
3268 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3270 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
3273 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3275 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
3276 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
3278 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3280 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
3281 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
3282 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
3283 script to find_program.
3285 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3287 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
3288 speed up -recurse option.
3290 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
3291 yet, but it compiles :-)
3293 * Changed default location for install to
3294 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
3295 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
3296 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
3299 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
3300 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
3301 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
