3 * etc/Makefile.in was incorrectly installing mts.conf.in and
4 sendfiles.in -- fixed. Changed the suffix for the backed-up
5 previous versions of the etc files from the ambiguous .old to
6 .prev. Added call to diff -- only keep the .prev files around if
7 different from the newly-installed versions (intentionally didn't
8 redirect output to /dev/null so you'll notice when your changed
9 versions are getting moved aside).
11 * INSTALL never documented the etc/*.old thing. Documented the
12 new etc/*.prev thing (including a note to watch for diff output).
14 Mon May 29 7:48:15 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
16 * Moved the date parsing routines from zotnet/tws to sbr/ (and
17 tws.h to h/). Updated all source files to reflect to new location
20 * Rewrote dparsetime (dtimep.c) to replace the old
21 zotnet/tws/dtimep.c, lexstring.c, lexedit.c, and
22 dtimep.c-lexed. It should now work with flex (although untested
23 with lex), and requires no sed-ing. For now, I have the lexed
24 version in the distribution, so that end-users don't need to worry
25 about running it through flex/lex. I have not added back support
26 for guessing the time zone when it's not specified.
28 Sun May 28 17:44:15 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
30 * Added autoconf check for getutent().
32 * Changed uip/rcvtty.c and uip/slocal.c to use getutent() and
33 friends. Since I can only check on Linux, please check if
34 this works on other systems.
36 Sun May 28 14:58:49 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
38 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to uip/scansbr.c for more
39 checks for write failures.
41 * Unlink temporary file properly in uip/rcvtty.c.
43 * Moved viamail from bindir to libdir.
45 * Changed sendfiles into sendfiles.in, so that path to viamail
48 * Added gzip support to sendfiles.
50 * Added References header to replcomps and replgroupcomps.
52 Sun May 28 14:39:31 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
54 * Fixed m_getfld bug which caused segmentation faults when
55 incorporating messages which ended in multiple linefeeds crossing
58 Fri May 26 13:21:59 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
60 * msh has been unable to show MIME messages ever since 1.0. Alec
61 Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu> tracked down the problem to the
62 -show flag being passed to mhshow. mhshow is equivalent to the
63 old mhn -show, so we don't need the -show anymore. Removed it.
65 Fri May 12 02:51:21 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
67 * zotnet/bboards is not longer built by default. Goal is to move
68 the assorted functions in zotnet into sbr or some more logical
71 * Moved zotnet/mf to sbr, and changed mf.h references accordingly,
74 Thu May 11 02:21:34 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
76 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that both SRCS and OBJS aren't
77 seperately and redundantly defined, but so that OBJS is a
78 pattern-substituted version of SRCS with suffix .c -> .o. This
79 should make maintainability easier.
81 * Added section to MACHINES indicating what platforms nmh is known
82 to compile and work on, just to give users peace of mind, or
83 something. This is by no means complete or exhaustive, so add
84 whatever you know works.
86 Tue May 09 20:38:04 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
88 * Alphabetized Shantonu's $pop_kinds output on configure's "pop is
89 enabled" line. If POP3 is the only kind of POP enabled, say so,
90 rather than just saying "yes" (which is ambiguous).
92 * Fixed four warnings in Shantonu's new getpass.c. Needed to
93 #include <stdlib.h> for calloc(), <unistd.h> for ttyname(), and
94 "h/mh.h" for adios(). Also changed ch from char to int to get rid
95 of "comparison is always 1 due to limited range of data type" on EOF.
97 * Added steps to README.developers saying to change the version
98 number to X.Y.Z+dev. Did a little rearranging and changed the FTP
99 dir from /home/ftp to /var/ftp to reflect Doug's new machine.
101 * Changed configure.in to use gcc -Wall even without
102 --enable-debug, to prevent developers compiling optimized from
103 introducing warnings, and to give end-users a warm, fuzzy feeling
104 as they (hopefully) see no warnings come out (except perhaps on
105 the lex output file) even with -Wall.
107 * Renamed getpass() to nmh_getpass() since the prototype for
108 getpass() varies from OS to OS, and we want to _always_ use our
109 version of the function. Fixed all the callers to use
110 nmh_getpass() and added it to prototypes.h. Semi-arbitrarily
111 upped MAX_PASSWORD_LEN from 128 to 256. buf was being calloc()'d
112 and the memory leaked -- should have just been declared as static
113 char array. Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the
114 copyright message, as this version has been changed significantly
115 from the BSD version.
117 * Added "nmh-local functions to use in preference to OS versions"
118 section to README.developers (currently just says to use
119 nmh_getpass() instead of system getpass()).
121 * Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the copyright message
124 * Added mts.conf.5 page per Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s
127 This happens on solaris:
130 windex entry incorrect: mts.conf(5) not found.
131 No manual entry for mts.conf.
135 % echo ".so man5/mh-tailor.5" > mts.conf.5
137 done in the man5 directory. We need to add 'mts.conf.5' as a
138 reference sourcing mh-tailor.5.
140 Mon May 08 23:51:55 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
142 * Doug informed me that the way I had restored the "lost" version
143 histories was wrong, because `cvs checkout's of old versions of
144 nmh wouldn't work properly. It occurs to me that this could be
145 fixed by simply deleting those tags in the new-location *,v files,
146 but oh well. I'm putting everything back to the way Doug
147 originally had it. To get the old version history for a file that
148 used to be in the top directory, you'll need to "blindly" do a
149 `cvs log' there (even though you won't have a local copy of the
150 file in that directory). `cvs diff' will no longer be able to
151 diff pre-move versions vs. post-move versions -- you'll have to do
152 a lot of manual gyrations with `cvs checkout' and then use `diff'.
154 * I had alphabetized the --configure options in the --help output
155 awhile back, but Shantonu added --enable-apop just under
156 --enable-pop. Put it in alphabetical order and clarified what
157 --enable-apop does vs. --enable-pop and --with-krb4. Also changed
158 --with-mts help line from "mail transport agent" to "mail
159 transport agent/service" so the 's' in "mts" doesn't seem to come
162 * Added two steps to "releasing nmh" in README.developers. After
163 making the tarball, it's a good idea to diff the tree vs. the CVS
164 tree to make sure no files got left out, and then to chown the
165 files so that they're owned by root, preventing a Trojaning attack
166 by a malicious remote user with a UID matching yours.
168 * Changed DIFFERENCES to say that RPOP is not currently supported
169 rather than implying it by saying that APOP, KPOP, and POP[3] are.
171 Sun May 07 18:16:43 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
173 * Imported NetBSD version of getpass() and made extensive
174 revisions for compatibility with programs that pipe the password
175 to stdin, such as exmh.
177 * Removed tests for system ruserpass() which sometimes gave
178 phantom positive results. Also, bext to use internal functions if
179 we ever want to change .netrc format to something else, or access
182 Sat May 06 08:28:09 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
184 * Restored lost version histories for those moved files by doing a
185 manual `mv' in the CVSROOT on mhost. CVS badly needs a `cvs mv'
186 command so that you can move files (without having physical access
187 to the CVSROOT) without losing versioning. Put MACHINES back at
188 the top level as it needs to be read before building. Fixed DIST
189 variable in {.,docs}/Makefile.in to reflect that and to add
190 missing entry for "INSTALL" file.
192 Sat May 06 13:13:07 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
194 * Re-cleaned up nmh documentation (by moving things to docs
195 subdir) and modified Makefile & configure.in to handle the change.
197 Mon Apr 17 21:28:40 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
199 * Scott Blachowicz pointed out that the configure --help output
200 for --enable-masquerade was misleading. Clarified.
202 Mon Apr 17 19:01:00 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
204 * APOP support can be compiled in to inc and msgchk using
207 * To access an APOP host, specify -apop on the command line
208 along with any -host or -user option.
210 Fri Apr 14 23:10:44 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
212 * Upped the version number to 1.0.4+dev until the next nmh release.
214 * Added a "releasing nmh" section to README.developers, while the
215 process was fresh in my mind.
217 Fri Apr 14 18:21:34 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
219 * Added new files README.developers, ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6, and
220 ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html to DIST target in Makefile.in.
222 * Released nmh-1.0.4.
224 Tue Apr 11 21:37:03 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
226 * Applied Brian Campbell <bacam@tardis.ed.ac.uk>'s mhn.defaults.sh
229 It appears that there shouldn't be quotes around the %s in the
230 iso-8859-1 charset entry; xterm passes the remaining arguments
231 to the program, quoting them means that xterm thinks they're
232 part of the program's name.
234 This %s isn't the same as the "Insert content subtype" one from
235 mhshow-show-* -- it doesn't come from MIME headers and is safe not
238 Sun Apr 09 13:03:59 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
240 * added check in fmt_compile() to handle a single-character
241 format string. fmt_compile() depends on having an array of
242 format characters with an empty item at the end. A
243 single-character format would cause programs using this
244 function to segfault because the algorithm used to decide on
245 the length of the array mistakenly created a single-item array
246 when the format string was one character. This eventually
247 caused problems when the program attempted to test item+1
250 Thu Apr 06 21:53:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
252 * Richard Coleman threw out a lot of old MH-specific files in nmh.
253 Much of the stuff, indeed, is not worth saving, but there are
254 nuggets that are very worthwhile, and should probably be added
255 back in. Most important, IMHO, are the MH change logs, as they
256 can help answer questions like "Why is this code like this?" or
257 "How long has this been broken?" or "What was this ever used for?"
259 I've added a new file to the nmh tree called
260 ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6. It's cobbled together from the
261 mh-6.8.4/papers/mh*/MHCHANGES files. I've re-ordered the entries
262 to go from newest at the top to oldest at the bottom to match the
263 ChangeLog convention. Unfortunately there are no change logs for
264 versions of MH prior to 3 in the MH tar files available at
265 <ftp://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/mh>. Also, it appears to me that there
266 are MH-6.6 changes that aren't documented in the logs.
268 I've also added ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html. This is
269 based on mh-6.8.4/papers/changes/mh-changes.ms. The nroff format
270 and its "catman"-type output are a pain to deal with, but I was
271 loath to throw away the formatting, so I converted the file to
272 HTML. The only actual markup in the body are the "<B>" and "<U>"
273 tags, and "<" and ">" instead of '<' and '>', so it's quite
274 doable to view the file in plain ASCII mode as well. Note that
275 some of the changes this file documents as having been made in
276 MH-6.8.4 may not be present in nmh -- Richard started with 6.8.3
277 and later put in certain 6.8.4 stuff.
279 Wed Apr 05 21:09:28 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
281 * Applied Eric Schnoebelen <eric@cirr.com>'s mhshowsbr.c patch
282 fixing apparent bugs in Dan Winship's new security quoting code:
284 Since upgrading, I've been getting the following errors
285 while attempting to process some MIME messages:
287 (1) Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
292 (2) line 1/10 (END)Segmentation fault (core dumped)
294 (2) appears to be due to the testing of an unset pointer in
295 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux(). (1) appears to be caused by
296 mis-quoting a filename being handed to the shell in
297 mhshowsbr.c:show_content_aux().
299 Resolving the pointer reference issue in
300 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux() turned up a similar mis-quoting
301 problem in the routine.
303 Tue Mar 28 16:17:39 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
305 * Applied Todd.Miller@courtesan.com's patch to dropsbr.c to
306 prevent core dumping on packf. Here's the note from his message:
308 Since sizeof(buffer) == sizeof(tmpbuffer) packf will dump
309 core on a file w/o a From line with a line >= BUFSIZ.
310 I noticed this because I had a junk file in my mail
313 Fri Mar 17 11:59:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
315 * wesley.craig@umich.edu did not document his previous KPOP patch,
316 so I did so, and asked him to check what I wrote. Unfortunately
317 he didn't notice my misunderstanding of his patch. I wrote that
318 if you #define POPSERVICE "kpop", inc and msgchk will use KPOP
319 exclusively, but if you leave it as "pop3", you can use Wesley's
320 new -kpop switch on a given invocation. Instead, however, -kpop
321 turned out to be necessary on every invocation, and a KPOP user
322 complained. Applied Wesley's new patch, which makes things work
323 like I thought his original patch did. After that, did one more
324 clarifying pass to the documentation in inc.man and msgchk.man.
326 Wed Mar 15 18:45:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
328 * When I fixed the long-standing makedir() bugs in January, I had
329 the code call strtoul(..., 0), which I believed to be safe as all
330 modes specified as ASCII constants in the nmh code started with a
331 leading zero (signifying octal), which I did as it would work if
332 internal constants were ever changed to hex. Unfortunately I was
333 unaware of the "Folder-Protect:" .mh_profile entry, which
334 mh-profile.man documents as an octal-only constant, with no
335 leading zero required. I've changed the strtoul() call to an
336 atooi() call and removed the misleading leading zeroes on the
337 ASCII octal constants in the code and man pages. Also changed the
338 "Folder-Protect:" example in the man page to something more
339 interesting than a duplication of the default.
341 * When I added my --enable-masquerade option, you'll note that I
342 didn't make it --enable-nmh-masquerade. I find the --enable-nmh-*
343 options too wordy and I'm not sure why Richard went that route.
344 I've renamed them to just --enable-*, but the old versions will
345 still work as well (they just aren't advertised).
347 * Added a line to the "nmh configuration" output saying whether
350 * Added a new README.developers file. From the file:
352 This file is intended to provide a few tips for anyone doing
353 development on nmh. Developers who learn things "the hard
354 way" about the nmh codebase (as opposed to local info best
355 encoded in a comment) are encouraged to share their wisdom
358 Currently the topics are "autoconf files" and "directory structure".
360 Tue Mar 14 12:41:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
362 * Applied, after some finessing,
363 Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s --with-smtpservers patch:
365 Here's a patch that allows you to add
367 --with-smtpservers=<some.host.name>
369 to the ./configure command line to set the "servers: " line in
370 etc/mts.conf. Around here, we use "mailhost" so that all
371 machines in the current domain just talk to a central machine
372 and nothing else runs an MTA. Now, I can use
374 --with-smtpservers=mailhost
376 instead of having to remember to fix this by hand (and often
377 forgetting to do so!).
379 * Inspired by Simon's patch, added an --enable-masquerade option
380 to configure. It will set the "masquerade:" line of mts.conf.
381 You may specify a subset of the three types of masquerading, like
382 --enable-masquerade="draft_from mmailid", or leave off explicit
383 arguments to enable all three types.
385 * Alphabetized the --enable and --with options in configure.in and
386 INSTALL and added documentation of the two new options to the latter.
388 * Added new dependency for mts.conf: Makefile. If this isn't
389 done, then when you reconfigure nmh with new values for
390 --enable-masquerade or --with-smtpservers, you'll fail to get an
391 updated copy of mts.conf.
393 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtimep.lex patch:
395 It seems that some MUA's didn't handle y2k very well - ELM
396 seems to be one of them, and Ultrix's DXmail (based on MH!).
397 I've got a few emails this month that look like:
399 575 Jan 00 Xxxxxx Xxxx 3603 ...
401 22+ Jan 00 Xxx Xxxxx 1771 ...
403 The first has "15 Jan 100" as the date and the second has
404 "19 Jan 00" as the date. The following works around this so
405 that scan, show, sortm, etc work ok.
407 I put Simon's patch under the control of a new #define called
408 FIX_NON_Y2K_COMPLIANT_MUA_DATES. There's some commentary in
409 acconfig.h about when you might not want to #define it.
411 * Created new dtimep.c-lexed with Simon's change using dtimep.lex
412 lexed on Solaris 2.6. Added missing dependency in
413 zotnet/tws/Makefile.in for dtimep.c: dtimep.c-lexed.
415 * Added scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD format files.
417 Mon Mar 13 21:32:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
419 * Applied Sullivan N. Beck <sbeck@cise.ufl.edu>'s mhshow-suffix patch:
421 With the patch below, you can add lines like:
423 mhshow-suffix-application/msword: .doc
424 mhshow-suffix-application/PostScript: .ps
426 to the mhn.defaults file to append the given suffix to a
427 scratch file. This allows applications which require a
428 certain suffix to run properly.
430 * Removed -force_html from lynx entry in mhn.defaults.sh (I
431 believe older versions of lynx lack that option) and added
432 "mhshow-suffix-text/html: .html".
434 * Modified username_extension masquerading to only use the
435 extended address on generated [Resent-]From: lines and SMTP
436 envelope From:. With Neil's original implementation, nmh's global
437 idea of the username was changed, which would result in inc lying
438 and saying you had no new mail because it was looking for a
439 mailbox called, for instance, "dan-nmh" (where username was "dan"
440 and $USERNAME_EXTENSION was "-nmh").
442 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtime.c patch:
444 There's a wrap-around problem that affects the implementation
445 of Zeller's congruence in dtime.c. This causes the day-of-week
446 calculations to fail for dates after Feb 29, 2000 (probably up
447 until some year far in the future).
449 Mon Mar 06 12:20:20 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
451 * Applied Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s msh.c patch:
453 I finally tracked down the problem in msh that was causing
454 errors whenever I tried to examine a 'mmdf' style mailbox.
456 It turns out that not enough memory was being allocated with
457 calloc(), causing memory pointers to be overwritten and
460 Fri Mar 03 16:07:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
462 * Changed the new "plussed_user" option to mts.conf's
463 "masquerade:" to "username_extension" after getting feedback from
464 qmail users, who use '-' as a separator rather than '+'. Removed
465 checking of $USERPLUS variable. Now check $USERNAME_EXTENSION,
466 which needs to include the appropriate separator for your MTA
467 ('-', '+', or whatever) as its first character.
469 Thu Mar 02 23:04:30 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
471 * Added a new "boolean" type to mh.h and TRUE and FALSE constants.
473 * Added a note to DIFFERENCES stating that it's out-of-date
474 (Richard was the last one to update it) and that we should
475 consider only documenting incompatibilities with MH there.
477 * Implemented (and documented) a third kind of username
478 masquerading: "plussed user" masquerading. This one was suggested
479 by Neil Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>. It's based on sendmail's
480 "plussed user" feature, where mail sent to <user>+<string> will be
481 delivered to <user>. When it's enabled, it's controlled by the
482 $USERPLUS environment variable. How is it enabled? Well, that
485 * Renamed the "mmailid:" setting in mts.conf to "masquerade:", and
486 changed it so that rather than being a boolean, it can be set to
487 any combination of the three values "draft_from", "mmailid", and
488 "plussed_user". Thus it is now possible to enable the three types
489 of masquerading individually.
491 * Fixed a bug with "mmailid" masquerading (dating back to MH?)
492 where if it was turned on, ','s would no longer be considered
493 GECOS field delimiters.
495 Wed Mar 01 23:30:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
497 * Changed the GECOS-field '&' translation behavior to be
498 controlled by the BSD42 #define rather than GCOS_HACK, since it's
499 apparently always appropriate on OSes where BSD42 is #defined, and
500 never appropriate on any other OSes. Thanks to Kimmo Suominen for
501 responding to my "What is this code here for?" comment in mts.c
502 and explaining the feature.
504 Mon Feb 28 21:50:29 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
506 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3+dev (ideally this should be
507 done by whoever makes a release tar file, immediately after doing
510 * Applied Paul Fox <pgf-spam@foxharp.boston.ma.us>'s scansbr.c
511 patch, posted to comp.mail.mh, which he says prevents loss of mail
512 when inc'ing into a full filesystem.
514 * Changed "echo > stamp-h.in" in Makefile.in to "date > stamp-h.in"
515 so that stamp-h.in will be different each time configure.in and
516 related files are changed, making it easier to check it in (which
517 is necessary to prevent unnecessary autoconf calls).
519 * My declaration of initgroups() in slocal.c to eliminate the "no
520 prototype" warning wasn't portable (FreeBSD 3.[23] choked). Now
521 use AC_EGREP_HEADER to see where initgroups() is declared, if
524 Sun Feb 20 12:17:15 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
526 * Fix security hole in mhshowsbr.c which allowed untrusted shell
529 * Released nmh 1.0.3.
531 Thu Feb 10 10:54:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
533 * Oops. %-escapes on mhstore lines in mhn.defaults.sh should not
534 be surrounded by single quotes, as a shell is not spawned when
535 just saving files, and the filenames will end up with literal
536 quotes embedded in them.
538 Fri Feb 04 12:29:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
540 * Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
541 got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
542 the -help output. One theory is that they were making reference
543 to the fact that clearly you know about the -help option since
544 you're currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea
545 to overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
546 supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
549 The other theory is that because you can say something like
550 "mhstore -" and get "mhstore: - ambiguous. It matches" followed
551 by the same list of switches you get with -help, they were saying
552 you can "sorta" abbreviate "-help" as "-". You don't get the
553 "Usage:" string, though, so it's not really the same thing.
555 Thu Feb 03 17:52:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
557 * Applied wesley.craig@umich.edu's KPOP patches. According to him:
559 The following patch fixes a problem with requesting a
560 service key for a machine that has multiple 'A' records. It
561 also makes "-kpop" a command line option, for users who
562 would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".
564 Did no testing of the new features, as I don't have access to a
567 * Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
569 * Modified INSTALL and config.h.in to reflect the new -kpop feature.
571 Fri Jan 28 17:39:24 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
573 * All %-escapes in mhn.defaults that actually expand to something
574 should be surrounded by single quotes. Added quotes to the ones
575 in mhn.defaults.sh that were missing them.
577 * Added check for lynx to write mhshow-show-text/html line in
580 Thu Jan 27 12:22:25 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
582 * makedir() had multiple bugs dating back to MH. An octal
583 constant was apparently being interpreted as decimal, resulting in
584 directories with no user read or execute permissions, making
585 nested directory creation fail. And there wasn't even an
586 _attempt_ to set desired permissions (e.g. from "Folder-Protect:"
587 in .mh_profile) on the outer directories of a nested directory.
589 * A second `make install' would always fail because the check for
590 whether mh_profile.5 existed was written incorrectly.
592 Wed Jan 26 02:22:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
594 * Added documentation on both types of masquerading to post's man
597 Tue Jan 25 22:58:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
599 * Doug's portability fix of my setgid inc autodetection had a
600 caching bug -- if you re-ran configure, uip/Makefile would be
601 corrupted, and installation would bomb out on OSes where inc needs
604 * Implemented a new kind of email address masquerading. Usually,
605 when a user writes a custom "From:" header in a draft, nmh uses it
606 rather than generating one. However, the user's true address is
607 used in the SMTP envelope "From:" and is revealed in the "Sender:"
608 header. Now, when mmailid is set to non-zero, the envelope
609 "From:" uses the address specified in the draft "From:" header,
610 and there is no "Sender:" header. This is useful when sending on
611 behalf of a remote POP3 account or when remote mail robots
612 incorrectly use the envelope "From:" in preference to the body
613 "From:". This processing has only been implemented for post, not
614 for the undocumented spost (which was already missing some "From:"
615 processing that post has).
617 Mon Jan 24 22:26:06 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
619 * Got rid of the rest of the gcc -Wall warnings that I didn't have
620 time for on 1999-07-15 (and, it would seem, some new ones people
621 introduced since then). The primary ones were the warnings that
622 default prototypes were being used for [v]snprintf() and
623 str[n]casecmp(). As of right now, there are _no_ compilation
624 warnings except on dtimep.c-lexed (at least under AIX 4.1.5 and
627 Sun Jan 2 23:42:18 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
629 * Move mhtest from bindir to libdir.
631 * Move sendfiles from libdir to bindir.
633 * Updated sendfiles manpage to reflect this change.
635 * Added documentation for -build and -file switches to repl and
636 forw manpages (patch from Peter Maydell).
638 * Fixed interaction between specifying -cc in profile and -group on
641 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
643 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
644 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
645 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
648 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
650 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
651 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
652 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
653 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
654 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
655 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).
657 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
659 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
661 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
663 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
664 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
665 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
666 caught again. This works for now.
668 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
670 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
672 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
673 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
675 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
677 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
678 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
680 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
682 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
684 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
686 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
687 changes. Both need more cleanup.
689 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
691 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
692 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
693 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
694 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
695 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
698 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
700 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
701 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
702 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
704 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
705 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
708 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
710 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
711 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
712 to a directory on another device with more free space.
714 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
716 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
717 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
719 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
721 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
724 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
725 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
727 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
728 macros, regardless of platform.
730 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
731 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
733 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
734 with x-conversions=gzip.
736 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
738 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
741 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
742 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
743 implicit definition of ioctl().
745 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
746 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
747 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
748 want to mess with them.
750 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
752 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
753 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
755 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
756 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
758 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
759 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
760 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
762 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
763 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
764 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
766 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
769 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
772 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
773 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
776 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
777 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
780 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
781 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
785 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
787 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
788 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
789 preventing compilation on at least linux.
791 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
792 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
794 Thu Sep 09 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
796 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
798 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
799 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
800 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
801 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
803 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
804 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
806 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
808 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
810 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
812 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
813 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
815 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
817 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
818 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
820 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
821 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
822 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
823 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
825 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
826 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
828 Sat Jun 09 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
830 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
831 substitute it for mktemp if available.
833 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
835 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
836 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
839 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
841 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
843 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
845 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
846 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
848 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
849 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
850 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
852 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
853 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
854 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
856 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
857 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
858 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
860 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
861 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
864 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
865 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
867 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
868 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
870 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
873 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
874 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
875 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
877 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
878 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
880 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
881 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
882 <elleron@servtech.com>.
884 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
885 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
888 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
889 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
891 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
892 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
893 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
894 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
896 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
897 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
899 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
903 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
904 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
905 would not be changed.
907 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
908 one from the Apache web server.
910 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
911 (this should have been done a long time ago).
913 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
914 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
915 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
917 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
919 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
921 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
922 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
925 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
926 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
927 removes a bad race condition.
929 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
932 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
933 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
934 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
936 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
937 sequence information.
939 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
940 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
942 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
945 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
948 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
950 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
951 interpret 034 as octal.
953 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
955 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
956 mhstore, and mhbuild.
958 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
959 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
961 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
962 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
964 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
965 in the c_cefile structure when building.
967 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
968 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
970 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
971 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
972 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
974 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
975 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
976 and mhshow. Updated man pages
978 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
980 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
982 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
983 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
986 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
988 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
989 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
991 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
992 header field information.
994 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
995 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
997 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
998 values when parsing a content.
1000 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
1001 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
1003 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
1004 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
1006 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
1007 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1009 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
1010 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
1012 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
1014 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
1016 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
1018 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
1020 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
1021 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
1024 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
1025 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
1027 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
1028 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
1029 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
1030 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
1031 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
1032 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
1035 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1037 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
1038 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
1039 buffer length checks for this parameter.
1041 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
1042 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
1044 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1046 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
1047 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
1048 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
1049 of the limits on the length of command lines.
1051 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
1052 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
1055 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
1056 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
1057 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
1058 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
1061 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1063 * Released nmh-0.27.
1065 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
1066 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
1068 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
1069 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
1070 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
1071 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
1074 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
1075 mhbuild returns an error.
1077 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
1078 rename the draft file.
1080 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
1081 use a global variable.
1083 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
1084 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
1086 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
1087 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
1089 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
1090 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
1091 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
1093 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
1094 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
1096 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
1097 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
1100 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
1101 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
1104 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
1105 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
1107 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
1108 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
1109 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
1111 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
1112 to new function output_content_folder.
1114 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
1115 new function output_content_file.
1117 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
1118 to new function parse_format_string.
1120 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
1121 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
1122 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
1123 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
1125 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
1126 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
1127 message/external file from ftp.
1129 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
1130 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
1131 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
1133 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
1134 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
1137 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
1140 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
1141 new file mhstoresbr.c
1143 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
1146 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
1147 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
1149 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
1150 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
1152 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
1153 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
1154 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
1156 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
1158 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
1160 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
1161 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
1164 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
1165 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
1167 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
1170 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
1172 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1174 * Released nmh-0.26.
1176 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
1177 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
1178 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
1179 is still the same (dashstuffing).
1181 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
1182 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
1183 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
1184 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
1185 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
1187 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
1188 But it is not on by default.
1190 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
1191 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
1193 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
1195 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
1197 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
1199 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
1201 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
1202 number of the "cur" message when packing.
1204 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1206 * Released nmh-0.25.
1208 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
1209 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
1210 uses the original name of the library.
1212 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
1213 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
1216 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
1217 list_content and list_debug.
1219 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
1221 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
1222 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.
1224 1998-02-27 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1226 * Released nmh-0.24.
1228 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
1230 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
1231 are given, that order doesn't matter.
1233 * Fix bug in seq_list.c when realloc'ing for
1234 large sequence line.
1236 1998-02-23 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1238 * Released nmh-0.23.
1240 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
1242 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
1243 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan
1244 content, decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary
1245 string). I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
1247 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
1248 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
1251 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
1253 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
1255 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
1257 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
1258 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
1260 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
1261 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.
1263 * Add note to MACHINES file that on Linux, configure
1264 doesn't find the functions sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
1266 * Fix configuration for machines that don't have (or find)
1267 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
1269 1998-02-11 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1271 * Released nmh-0.22.
1273 * Add a configure check for sigsetjmp. Add some conditional
1274 #define's in h/signals.h in case it's not found.
1276 * Added additional notes about -auto switch in mhn man page.
1278 * Added note about MM_CHARSET environment variable to
1279 mh-profile(5) man page.
1281 * Fix signal problem in mhn.c (change setjmp/longjmp to
1282 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp).
1284 1998-02-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1286 * Released nmh-0.22-pre1.
1288 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
1289 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
1291 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
1293 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
1294 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
1295 entry point for parsing MIME files.
1297 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
1298 source message on the standard input.
1300 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
1302 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
1303 rather than -rfc934mode.
1305 * Fix mhbuild, so that Content-Description and RFC-822 comments
1306 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
1309 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
1310 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).
1312 * Restore HP specific code to zotnet/tws/lexstring.c. Apparently
1315 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1317 * Released nmh-0.21.
1319 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
1320 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.
1322 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what transfer
1325 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what character set
1326 to use for text contents.
1328 * Removed old hpux specific code from zotnet/tws/lexstring.c
1330 1998-02-02 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1332 * Released nmh-0.21-pre2.
1334 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
1336 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
1337 header fields as per RFC-2047.
1339 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
1340 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
1341 spaces between encoded word are.
1343 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
1345 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
1346 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
1348 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
1349 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
1350 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
1352 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
1354 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
1355 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
1357 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.
1359 * Added support for %(decode) to fmtdump.c.
1361 * check_charset() now accepts US-ASCII as a subset of any
1362 ISO-8859-X character set.
1364 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
1367 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
1368 permissions, not write permissions.
1370 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
1371 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
1373 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
1376 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1378 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
1380 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
1381 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
1383 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
1384 message contains valid character set.
1386 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
1387 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
1389 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
1390 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
1392 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
1393 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
1394 between an encoded word and normal text.
1396 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
1397 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
1399 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
1400 as a RFC-2047 header field.
1402 * The command install-mh now recognizes the switches -version
1405 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
1406 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
1409 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
1410 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
1412 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
1413 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
1415 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
1417 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1419 * Released nmh-0.20.
1421 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
1423 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.
1425 * Changed the default format file for mhl (mhl.format) to
1426 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
1427 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
1429 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
1430 and the To: line was missing.
1432 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
1434 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1436 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
1438 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
1439 watch the POP transaction.
1441 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
1442 first, and use it if available.
1444 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
1445 first, and use it if available.
1447 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1449 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
1451 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
1452 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
1453 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
1456 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
1457 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
1458 returns the state FLDPLUS.
1460 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
1461 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
1464 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
1466 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
1467 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
1469 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
1471 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
1472 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
1474 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
1475 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
1476 message to which you are replying.
1478 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
1479 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
1480 making group replies.
1482 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
1484 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1486 * Released nmh-0.19.
1488 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
1489 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
1491 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
1492 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
1493 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
1494 to the end of the man page.
1496 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
1497 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
1498 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
1499 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
1500 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
1501 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
1503 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
1506 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
1507 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
1508 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
1510 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
1511 the next available number above the message number you wish
1514 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
1515 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
1517 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
1518 file sbr/seq_print.c
1520 * flist will now update the current folder.
1522 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
1523 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
1524 but now undocumented.
1526 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
1529 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
1530 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
1532 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
1534 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
1535 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
1537 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1539 * Released nmh-0.18.
1541 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
1542 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
1543 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
1545 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
1546 retains the public/private status of sequences.
1548 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
1549 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
1550 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
1551 previous public/private status.
1553 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
1556 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
1559 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
1560 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
1561 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
1563 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
1564 take option to determine whether it should get current
1565 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
1566 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
1568 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
1570 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
1571 wait for stopped processes.
1573 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
1574 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
1576 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1578 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
1580 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
1581 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
1583 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
1584 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
1586 * Change the way that memory for message status is
1587 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
1588 the folder/message structure. This required changing
1589 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
1591 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
1594 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
1597 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
1599 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
1600 the debugging output.
1602 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
1603 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
1605 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1607 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
1609 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
1610 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
1612 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
1614 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
1615 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
1616 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
1617 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
1618 in the given sequence.
1620 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
1621 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
1622 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
1623 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
1624 subdirectories of a given directory.
1626 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
1627 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
1628 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
1630 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
1631 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
1633 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
1635 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
1638 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
1639 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
1640 fields are now calculated at runtime.
1642 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
1643 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
1644 are calculated at runtime.
1646 Sun Nov 30 19:14:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1648 * Released nmh-0.18-pre2.
1650 * Add paragraph to man page for install-mh and to INSTALL file
1651 about checking for global mh.profile.
1653 * Renamed m_find() to context_find().
1654 Renamed m_replace() to context_replace().
1655 Renamed m_delete() to context_del().
1656 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
1657 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
1658 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
1660 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
1661 adding message to folder itself.
1663 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
1664 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
1665 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
1668 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
1669 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
1672 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
1673 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
1674 is the same as the direct smtp code).
1676 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
1677 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
1679 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
1680 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
1681 code to use it yet).
1683 Thu Nov 13 18:42:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1685 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.
1687 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never
1688 called with a value larger than 30 mintues.
1690 * Fixed race condition in rmm and refile, so that
1691 context is updated before external rmmproc is called.
1693 * Removed all the OVERHEAD code.
1695 * Move code to add message to folder from refile.c
1698 Fri Jul 25 19:39:29 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1700 * Did some rearranging of the internals of inc.c.
1702 * Make -inplace the default for anno, forw, dist, and repl.
1704 * Changed --enable-smtp to --with-mts={smtp,sendmail}
1706 * Created new directory mts/sendmail for direct sendmail
1707 interface (although it currently still uses SMTP).
1709 * Removed all the TMA (trusted mail agent) code
1711 * Removed all the TTYD (terminal access daemon) code
1713 * Removed all the MF (uucp filtering) code.
1715 * Removed all the code for BERK.
1717 * Removed all the code for stand-alone delivery (MHMTS).
1719 * Split the file mts/sendmail/smail.c into sendmail.c and
1720 smtp.c. Changed the name of the directory to mts/smtp.
1722 * Changed autoconf to use @sysconfdir@ for location of
1723 configuration files.
1725 * Changed #define in mhn.c from FTP to BUILTIN_FTP.
1727 Mon Jul 21 03:22:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1729 * Released nmh-0.17.
1731 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
1733 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
1734 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
1736 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
1739 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
1740 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
1742 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
1743 number of refiled message.
1745 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
1747 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
1748 for return value of wait().
1750 * Change configure to also check /bin for "more".
1752 Sat Jul 12 00:02:23 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1754 * Released nmh-0.16.
1756 Mon Jun 23 20:13:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1758 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
1760 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
1761 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
1762 deal with binary messages, yet).
1764 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
1766 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
1768 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
1769 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
1770 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
1771 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
1772 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
1773 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
1775 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
1776 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).

1779 From MH-6.8.4 patch.
1781 * Fix double free of ctinfo in user_content when using
1782 #forw with single message. From John MacMillan (and
1785 * Changed -mhnproc switch for show, to -showmimeproc.
1787 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".

1790 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
1793 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
1796 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
1798 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
1799 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
1800 which used unsigned chars by default.

1817 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
1818 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
1820 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
1821 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
1823 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
1825 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
1826 they conflict with defines on AIX.
1828 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
1829 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
1830 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
1831 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
1833 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
1834 and put in own subroutine.
1836 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
1837 and put in own subroutine.
1839 * Moved code to remove messages from folder into own
1840 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and

1845 * Renamed m_seqok to seq_nameok.
1847 * Changed m_setunseen, msh, mshcmds, flist, and scan to use
1850 * Changed m_seqflag to return the number of a sequence rather
1851 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
1852 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
1854 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
1857 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before

1872 selected messages to a sequence.
1874 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,
1877 Thu May 15 00:53:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1879 * Renamed function pack_folder to m_packfolder, and moved it
1880 from uip/folder.c into its own file sbr/m_packfolder.c
1882 Wed May 14 23:38:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1884 * Changed function m_gmsg to m_readfolder. Renamed file

1921 * Released nmh-0.13.
1923 * Changed mhpath so it doesn't abort if a message sequence
1924 such as "mhpath all" expands to more than 1000 messages.
1925 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
1926 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
1929 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
1930 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
1932 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1934 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if
1935 necessary. So `folders' can now handle more than 300 folders.
1937 Tue Apr 22 14:01:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1939 * Change configure to use a compile check to see if the tm struct

1968 will suppress the display of the message header.
1970 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
1972 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c
1973 and mshcmds.c, rather than hard coding in /bin/cat.

1982 500 elements at a time (rather than MAXFOLDERS / 5).
1984 * Add note to man page for mhmail that zero length messages are
1985 not sent. Need to use -body "" to send empty messages.
1987 * zotnet/mts/mts.c : compare character with '\0', not NULL.
1989 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
1991 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
1992 folder/message structure when done with folder.
1994 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is
1995 defined even if message is missing "From " line.

2019 * client.c: cast iaddr to int before comparing return value
2020 of inet_addr with NOTOK.
2022 Tue Mar 11 04:38:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2024 * Grep test for signal names was failing on some OS'es because

2054 * rcvtty.c : Changed to use #define UTMP_FILE (if exists) rather
2055 than hard coded "/etc/utmp".
2057 * Released nmh-0.08.
2059 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
2060 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of
2061 locking database itself.

2065 * Added slocal action `mmdf' to deliver to a file in mmdf format.
2067 * Changed the slocal actions `file' and `>' to always deliver in
2068 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
2071 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
2072 rather than mmdf format.
2074 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
2075 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
2076 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
2077 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
2079 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
2081 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2083 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
2086 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2087 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2088 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
2090 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2091 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2092 rcvpack so you can choose the preferred format.
2094 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2096 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
2097 can still easily change this in config.h).
2099 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
2100 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
2101 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
2103 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2105 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather

2120 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
2122 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
2123 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
2126 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
2127 built-in FTP client in mhn.

2140 * Released nmh-0.06.
2142 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
2143 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
2145 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
2146 many such machines around anymore.
2148 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
2149 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
2151 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
2152 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
2154 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2156 * Check lex generated file in zotnet/tws and use
2157 pre-generated version if necessary.
2159 * Released nmh-0.05.
2161 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
2162 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
2163 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
2164 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
2166 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
2167 be linked in one pass.
2169 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2171 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
2172 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
2174 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2176 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
2178 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2180 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
2181 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
2182 become the current folder.
2184 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2186 * Released nmh-0.04.

2191 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2193 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
2194 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
2195 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
2197 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2199 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
2200 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
2202 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2204 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
2205 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
2208 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
2209 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
2211 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2213 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
2214 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
2215 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
2216 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
2217 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
2218 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
2220 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2222 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
2223 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
2225 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
2226 a file (currently need to specify full path).
2228 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2230 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
2231 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
2233 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2235 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
2236 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
2237 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
2239 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2241 * Released nmh-0.03.
2243 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
2244 .mh_sequence file existed.
2246 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
2247 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
2249 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
2250 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
2253 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2255 * Changed flist option -unseen to -[no]all. Cleaned up
2258 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2260 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
2261 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
2262 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
2264 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2266 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
2267 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
2268 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
2270 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2272 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL
2273 and allocate its own buffer. Borrowed from zsh.
2275 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
2277 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2279 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
2280 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
2281 directory from where the source code is located.
2283 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2285 * Released nmh-0.02.

2299 * -compat switch from install-mh removed.
2301 * Changed the default POP port from "pop" to "pop3".
2303 Sat Dec 28 13:25:05 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2305 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
2306 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
2307 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
2308 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
2309 rather than in script.
2311 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2313 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
2315 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with
2316 macro defined on Solaris.

2320 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
2321 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
2323 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
2324 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
2325 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
2326 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
2329 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2331 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
2332 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.
2334 * Fixed configure test so that termcap variable ospeed is
2337 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2339 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
2341 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included
2342 in mhn.c. Changed md5 to use memset and memcpy.
2344 Fri Dec 20 02:29:37 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2346 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
2347 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
2349 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2351 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
2352 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
2353 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
2354 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
2355 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
2356 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
2358 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2360 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
2362 * Released nmh-0.01.
