3 * Debian Bug# 143485: Nick Rusnov: h/mh.h: use fork instead of
6 * Debian Bug# 261592: Harald Geyer: uip/mhlsbr.c, uip/replsbr.c:
7 test/report error writing to stdout
9 * mts/smtp/smtp.c, uip/popsbr.c: correct SASL include file locations
11 * docs/COMPLETION-BASH: bash completion definitions from Debian
13 * patch #2863: savannah@brisammon.fastmail.fm: sbr/folder_read.c:
14 fix a bug affecting AFS where nmh was setting the READONLY flag
15 for a folder even when you do have write access to the folder
17 * Carl Mummert: h/fmt_compile.h, man/mh-format.man,
18 sbr/fmt_compile.c, sbr/fmt_scan.c: add unquote() function for
19 removing quotes from RFC-2822 encoded headers
21 2005-02-23 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
23 * use iconv to convert RFC-2047 encoded headers to the
24 character set used by the current locale
26 * sbr/folder_read.c fix Debian bug #202667: crash when a
27 message's filename overflows an int when converted
29 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
30 versions (from automake 1.9.5)
32 2005-02-21 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
34 * sbr/getpass.c fix bug where inc crashed on failing to reopen
37 2005-01-27 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
39 * Added -proxy option to inc and msgchk. Based on old patch
40 from Michael Richardson.
42 * On systems where it is available, use nl_langinfo to get the
43 character set if MM_CHARSET is unset
45 2005-01-21 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
47 * sbr/check_charset.c US-ASCII is a subset of UTF-8 so can be
48 handled directly when UTF-8 is being used
50 2004-12-17 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
52 * uip/mhmisc.c Fix -part option to mhshow/mhlist/mhstore to
53 find sub-parts of the specified part
55 2004-11-19 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
57 * h/prototypes.h, sbr/folder_addmsg.c, uip/mhstoresbr.c,
58 uip/rcvstore.c, uip/refile.c: Added mail directory argument to
59 folder_addmsg in order to make it possible to provide a path to
60 the ext_hook call that is mailpath-based. A problem existed when
61 a folder was a symbolic link and the pwd call would return the
62 path relative to the filesystem, not to mailpath. A new argument
63 was needed because there was otherwise no reasonable way to get
66 2004-11-16 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
68 * sbr/folder_pack.c: Fixed problem where the refile hook was being
69 called after a message was renamed so that it wasn't around for
70 the hook. The hook is now called before the message file is
73 * sbr/folder_addmsg.c: Fixed wrong directory for hook when
74 refiling with -src option.
76 2004-10-15 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
78 * uip/sortm.c: Fixed calling of external hooks.
80 2004-10-12 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
82 * uip/inc.c: Fixed another weird bug caused by the static
83 mailpath being overwritten.
85 * uip/sendsbr.c: Fixed bug that caused anno to mangle headers.
87 * sbr/lock_file.c: Fixed strange bug that prevented a lock from
88 ever being obtained if getting it failed the first time. The
89 problem was that the string of XXXXXX that is required by
90 mkstemp() was overwritten the first time through, and so all
91 subsequent times failed because mkstemp() failed. The fix
92 reinitializes the tmp file string.
94 * uip/inc.c: Fixed bug in which the static maildir was overwritted
95 if a format string was read from the profile.
97 * sbr/folder_delmsgs.c: Fixed bug that was producing an incorrect
98 path for the external hook.
100 2003-10-06 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
102 * uip/slocal.c, configure.in: db configuration fix for Debian; yet
103 another location for ndbm.
105 2003-09-30 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
107 * Fix 'pick' so handling of options "-list" and "-seq" are
109 * Fix 'inc' realloc error when bringing in more than 100 msgs
111 * Patches submitted by Nick Rusnov from Debian archive applied:
114 136976 - Handle binary content messages
115 143427 - mh-format.man typo
116 144098 - 'spost; should have same behavior as 'post'
117 w.r.t. mts.conf masquerade line
118 149745 - slocal ignores 'N' result of previous command
119 152728 - increase SMTP timeouts to conform to RFC 1123
120 The timeouts suggested by the RFC seem long
121 to me - but the RFC is still listed as active.
122 181867 - typo for nmh.man
124 2003-08-10 Jeffrey C Honig <jch@honig.net>
126 * Fix problem where parsing of address/date fields in fmt_compile
127 is optimized to the first instance. The first instance may be in
128 contitional code which will result in cached data to
129 be used. Instead, convert c_flags to a flags field from a boolean
130 and parse on the first use.
131 * Remove some unused flag bits.
133 Fri Jul 01 22:02:00 2003 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
135 * Applied fixes for configuration problems with Solaris and
136 systems with gdbm instead of db1 (includes bug #2024)
138 #578 - repl leaks umask
139 #1393 - sortm core dumps
140 #1650 - msh leaks file descriptors
141 #1730 - Double free() in mhfree.c:free_encoding()
142 #3356 - In-Reply-To header in default replcomps should be
144 * Revised man page for mh-format (bug #2031)
145 * New replcomps, etc, with Fcc: +outbox in default versions
147 Sat Mar 17 03:18:15 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
149 * Ken Hornstein's configure.in Cyrus SASL checks were doing
150 `x"$with_cyrus_sasl" != "no"' instead of `... != x"no"'.
152 Tue Mar 06 21:04:27 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
154 * Found some historical information about MH in RFC 808.
155 Supplemented it with info from Jerry Peek's MH book and added it
156 to docs/README.about.
158 Tue Feb 6 20:35:40 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
160 * sbr/dtime.c Use the same Y2K correction code as dtimep.lex
162 * sbr/dtimep.lex Restrict the parser to accept either
163 a numerical timezone offset, or a symbolic one (e.g. EST),
164 but not both (Since "2000 -400 EDT" might cause a double
165 subtraction of 60 minutes if both are parsed. One should be
168 Mon Feb 05 20:22:54 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
170 * -L isn't sufficient for specifying the path of the Cyrus SASL
171 shared library. That'll allow us to link successfully, but on
172 many/most OSes that won't allow us to find libsasl at runtime. On
173 Solaris, we need to specify the library path with -R as well (or
174 else the user will have to use the $LD_LIBRARY_PATH kludge, which
175 is considered harmful). This fix should be extended to other OSes
178 * Print whether we have SASL support in the "nmh configuration"
179 summary configure prints out.
181 * Say in README.developers to use `\date' in case anyone is like
182 me and has `date' aliased in their shell to use a nonstandard (but
183 subjectively more readable) format.
185 Thu Jan 25 21:15:52 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
187 * man/mh-chart.man has updated synposes of
190 Tue Jan 23 20:26:15 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
192 * etc/digestcomps tried to force dates into a
193 19xx when it's not necessary.
195 Fri Jan 19 21:22:08 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
197 * First round of manpage updates finished. They
198 are standardized on -man macros, with minimal
201 * man/tmac.h.in is no longer needed, since the
202 manpages do not depend on them anymore. Note:
203 strict "man" programs that didn't allow ".so"
204 sourcing outside the man tree will now format
205 the man pages correctly.
207 * man/vmh.1 is no longer built, since uip/vmh isn't
209 Tue Jan 9 6:01:22 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
211 * Finished manpages ali-prev
213 * Removed deprecated files from the repository.
214 Specifically, those rooted in zotnet/ and mts/sendmail
215 mts/mmdf. "cvs update -dP" will give a pruned directory
218 * Updated docs/Makefile.in to include README.manpages, and
219 uip/Makefile.in to include popi.c (which isn't being built,
220 though). This allows "make nmhdist" to create an archive that
221 is file-for-file identical to the current cvs repository.
223 Sun Dec 31 20:48:50 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
225 * Create docs/README.manpages, which details
226 the formatting rules I've been using.
230 Sat Dec 30 9:50:13 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
232 * Created a new file "DATE" to hold the date
233 of the most recent nmh release. This date will be
234 used in the manpages.
236 * Updated docs/README.developers to add the step
237 of updating DATE. Also, updated configure to
238 read in the contents of the file as the variable
241 * Started work on updating man pages, with only
242 ali finished so far. Changes: 1) no dependence
243 on an external macro file, 2) uses only
244 -man macros (although I may be mistaken in this),
245 3) syntax in the SYNOPSIS is a little more
246 in line with standard UNIX documentation, such as
247 bold flags and italicized parameters.
249 Sun Dec 24 10:06:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
251 * Updated INSTALL with information about the
252 --with-locking option.
254 * Fixed the Hesiod tests in configure.in. In
255 systems where res_send was in -lresolv, this
256 information was not being communicated to the
257 HESIOD_LIBS var. Now, if res_send is not found
258 in the default libraries, it's assumed to be
259 in -lresolv, and thus -lresolv is appended to
260 HESIOD_LIBS, which will need that to avoid
261 undefined symbols problems.
263 * Fixed the Kerberos tests in configure.in. New
264 versions of Kerberos 5 have renamed -lcrypto
265 to -lk5crypto (circa krb5 1.1 or thereabouts). The
266 new test tries to determine if -lk5crypto exists. If so,
267 this is a new krb5 system. If not, test for -lcrypto
268 and the rest of old krb5. If that fails, look
269 for a genuine krb4 installation.
271 Fri Dec 22 22:08:51 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
273 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in msgchk.man.
274 -snoop was documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
276 Fri Dec 22 23:42:16 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
278 * Made a new ./configure option called
279 "--with-locking" that allows the file
280 locking mechanism to be chosen there instead of
281 requiring a manual edit of config.h.
283 * If the option is not explicitly set, or an
284 invalid option is specified, "dot" locking is
285 chosen. Valid options are "dot", "fcntl",
286 "flock", and "lockf". We need a way to tell
287 the user that these are the valid options, and
288 change the flag "--with-locking" if it's not
291 Fri Dec 22 19:21:29 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
293 * Remove the lex-specific memory hints at the
294 beginning of sbr/dtimep.lex. We've already
295 committed to supporting flex only, since
296 lex does not easily allow us to parse a single
297 string, as well as other problems documented
298 below and on nmh-workers.
300 * Added a switch statement to configure.in to
301 test for Mac OS X. If this is the case, LDFLAGS
302 should not contain "-s" since the linker rejects
305 * Updated MACHINES to include Mac OS X Public Beta,
306 as well as Linux 2.4 running glibc 2.2.
308 Wed Dec 20 16:00:46 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
310 * Marked deprecated directories in docs/README.developers
311 as deprecated, with pointers to the new code location.
312 Eventually these deprecated directories should go away.
314 Tue Dec 19 19:16:37 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
316 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in inc.man. -snoop was
317 documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
319 Thu Dec 14 14:32:09 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
321 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
322 versions on ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/config, dated
323 12-07-00. This should prevent configure from failing
324 on newer operating systems because config.{guess,sub}
325 couldn't correctly identify them.
327 Thu Dec 14 1:30:44 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
329 * Fixed the circular dependency created when I moved
330 zotnet/mts to mts/generic and merged them into libmts.
331 mts/generic/client.c and mts/generic/mts.c are now in sbr/
332 (and thus in libmh), which makes libmh self-contained and
333 not depending on an external archive.
335 * All include statements now look for mts.h in h/. The
336 Makefiles and configure script have been modified so that
337 mts/generic is no longer built.
339 Mon Dec 11 22:08:07 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
341 * When Shantonu made the new libmts.a, he swapped $(MTSLIB) and
342 libmh.a in sbr/Makefile.in so that libmh.a comes first, but this
343 causes the build to fail on Solaris, because libmts.a has to get
344 ruserpass() out of libmh.a. Swapping them back to the way Ken
345 Hornstein's patch (which I applied on Jul 20) put them, with
346 libmh.a correctly coming second. If there are times when libmts.a
347 needs to come second, then it would appear there's a circular
348 dependency and someone (Shantonu?) did an mts merge incorrectly.
350 Fri Sep 8 01:36:23 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
352 * Took out bad time textual time zones like BST and JST.
353 I found them online somewhere, but am not sure if they're
356 Fri Sep 8 00:36:48 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
358 * Moved zotnet/mts to mts/generic. This code reorganization
359 makes the entire zotnet tree deprecated -- bboards is unneeded,
360 mf was was moved to sbr, tws was rewritten and moved to sbr, and
363 * Created a new static library called libmts.a used during
364 compilation which includes the generic mts code and the
365 smtp/sendmail code. This supercedes the functionality of the
366 old libsmtp.a and the remains of libzot.a.
368 * Updated header includes to reference the new location of mts.h
369 in mts/generic/mts.h. Also, update the configure and top-level
370 Makefile not to descend into zotnet. Also, they don't descend
371 into mts/mmdf and mts/sendmail (the sendmail code has been
372 merged into the smtp code).
374 * Added #include <h/nmh.h> to h/md5.h, since my compile was
375 complaining about implicitly-declared memcpy and memset, which
376 appear to be in strings.h. In any event, nmh.h should take care
379 * When doing a "make nmhdist", notice that the generated
380 snapshot does not include zotnet of the mts directories as noted
381 above. Since they are no longer compiled, and I don't see any
382 obvious code path to get to them, end-users should probably
383 not need them. If you think otherwise, turn Makefile generation
384 back on in configure.in and turn on recursion into those dirs
385 in the appropriate Makefile.in
387 Wed Sep 6 22:40:03 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
389 * Tracked down the problem in the new dtimep where time
390 zones were being radically misreported. It was because the
391 parser knew about military time zones (such as M or E) but in
392 some cases did not know about the textual representation of
393 some zones (like MET). When it encountered one of these, the
394 date parser misread MET as the military time zone T (well, first
395 zone M, then E, and finally T). I took military zones out, and
396 things seem much better. Also, the default behavior of parsing
397 time zones appears to default to GMT in the absence of better
398 info, which is less bogus than assuming the mail came from the
399 current time zone, which was the behavior in 1.04.
401 Thu Aug 10 13:22:13 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
403 * Decided that limiting the message number columns to 3 on my
404 scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD (to try to regain space taken by
405 extra date info) was ill-conceived. It's not that tough to get
406 past 999 messages, though I imagine it's rather rare to exceed
407 9999. Changed these to 4. Also put the "replied / encrypted"
408 column back in YYYYMMDD -- I've never seen it show anything but a
409 space, but that space is useful if you use scan, grep, and awk
410 (with the default field separator) to grab message numbers (I know
411 -- pick should really be used for these purposes...).
413 Mon Aug 7 20:11:09 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
415 * Modify umask set by mhshow to enable user execute bit, so that
416 viewers that create temporary directories (e.g., lynx) will be
419 Thu Aug 03 17:14:08 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
421 * TODO: Allow multiple simultaneous differing contexts, probably
422 each tied to a parent (terminal) process.
424 Tue Aug 1 10:48:05 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
426 * Makefile install rules should not look for generated files in
427 the source tree -- this will happen to work when configuring and
428 building inside the source tree but will fail when using an
429 external build tree. Fixed etc/Makefile.in.
431 Mon Jul 24 16:20:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
433 * When Shantonu wrote the new, more portable dtimep.lex, he left
434 out the #ifdef DSTXXX stuff for some reason. Not a good idea, as
435 that code is required for proper printing of numeric-offset
436 timezones that have daylight saving time. Without that code,
437 -0700 during DST gets printed as MST instead of PDT.
439 * Renamed DSTXXX as ADJUST_NUMERIC_ONLY_TZ_OFFSETS_WRT_DST and
440 added an explanatory comment by its #definition.
442 * Updated README.developers with the fact that zotnet/tws is going away.
444 Thu Jul 20 20:30:52 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
446 * Moved Kimmo's new "--with-hash-backup" to be output with the
447 rest of the --with options in the configure --help output. Also,
448 people did not preserve my alphabetization of the --with options
449 when they added new ones. Re-alphabetized.
451 * One more pass at README.developers now that it's clear that my
452 previously-suggested one-line autoconf-file commit can cause
453 unnecessary local makes and an out-of-sync stamp-h.in file, but
454 would not cause problems for other people using the CVS files.
456 * Ken Hornstein's SASL patch was not integrated properly with
457 Ruud's new merged mts/sendmail code. Kimmo has since fixed nmh so
458 it compiles, but according to Ken, the SASL stuff still does not
459 work. Integrating a patch from him for this.
461 * Last pass at README.developers -- Kimmo's 5-step commit was
462 overkill. You only need 3 steps, since configure.in is the only
463 autoconf file with the RCS $Id keyword.
465 * Applied Kurt J. Lidl <lidl@eng.us.uu.net>'s $MAILHOST patch:
467 I have a small patch that would be nice to be included --
468 basically, it allows the usage of the "MAILHOST" environment
469 variable, without having to have HESIOD turned on. I need
470 this functionality for my environment, where we have identical
471 /usr/local on all my machines (so I cannot just hardcode into
472 the mts.conf file), and I have multiple POP mail servers for
475 Modified inc.man to reflect that along with "pophost:" and -host,
476 $MAILHOST can now activate POP mail inclusion as well.
478 * Fixed warnings from diff on first-time install of nmh. Also
479 added 'echo's clarifying the etc file installation activities.
481 Tue Jul 18 19:36:59 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
483 * Added the answer to Dan's question in README.developers.
485 Mon Jul 17 19:10:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
487 * Clarified and made some corrections to Kimmo's README.developers
488 changes (BTW, if anyone can explain why the RCS Ids are able to cause
489 problems with the dependencies, please fill in the explanation --
490 I never encountered a problem with the old single-commit method).
492 Sat Jul 15 23:13:49 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
494 * Add configure option --with-hash-backup so the backup prefix can
495 be easily changed from "," to "#".
497 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that it works with any make.
499 * Use mkstemp in sbr/lock_file.c.
501 * Commits of autoconf-related files apparently can't all be done
502 in one shot due to RCS Ids changing when committing -- updated
505 Tue Jul 11 14:18:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
507 * Clarified post.man and send.man for those not completely up on
508 SASL terminology. "SASL encryption layers are not supported for
509 SMTP" means that encryption is supported for the authentication
510 but not for the subsequent data stream.
512 Sat Jul 8 01:36:19 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
514 * Applied Ken Hornstein <kenh@cmf.nrl.navy.mil>'s patches
515 implementing SASL support for POP3 and SMTP. If nmh is compiled
516 with SASL support, using the -sasl switch on the inc, msgchk,
517 post, and send commands will enable authentication encryption for
518 SMTP, and both authentication and data stream encryption for POP3.
520 Sat Jun 10 18:37:59 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
522 * Merged mts/sendmail functionality into mts/smtp; switching between
523 smtp and sendmail delivery method is now controlled by mts.conf.
525 * If tsort cannot deal with loops, in addition to defining tsort as
526 cat, also define lorder as echo.
528 * Removed uip/popi.c from list of sources.
530 Thu Jun 08 19:36:57 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
532 * New dtimep.lex didn't parse day names properly. Fixed. Also
533 clarified ambiguous comments preceding day_map[] array (from old
534 dtimep.lex) that probably led to the erroneous cp++ being added.
536 Wed Jun 7 20:52:33 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
538 * Added one more mkstemp invocation to uip/spost.c (which was in a
541 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to clean up permissions handling
542 and error handling in uip/inc.c.
544 Mon Jun 5 22:10:07 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
546 * Use cat instead of tsort if tsort cannot deal with loops in its
547 input (which is the case for tsort from GNU textutils).
549 Mon Jun 5 21:14:36 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
551 * If lockfile is present, and its dotlockfile program is setgid,
552 inc does not need to be setgid.
554 Sun Jun 4 21:35:40 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
556 * Added autoconf test for Miquel van Smoorenburg's liblockfile
557 library, as found on Debian systems.
559 * Added liblockfile support to sbr/lock_file.c.
561 Wed May 31 7:19:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
563 * Fixed up dtimep.lex a bit. Added back memory options for AIX to
564 increase available memory. Took out %option noyywrap, which
565 wasn't understood by AT&T lex, as well as the -i
566 case-insensitivity flag.
568 Wed May 31 07:40:45 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
570 * Added a lint target to the Makefiles and a check in autoconf
571 to determine whether lint or lclint exists on the system.
573 Fri May 30 19:21:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
575 * etc/Makefile.in was incorrectly installing mts.conf.in and
576 sendfiles.in -- fixed. Generated sendfiles script was not a
577 dependency of the `all' target, and was incorrectly included in
578 the distribution. Changed the suffix for the backed-up previous
579 versions of the etc files from the ambiguous .old to .prev. Added
580 call to diff -- only keep the .prev files around if different from
581 the newly-installed versions (intentionally didn't redirect output
582 to /dev/null so you'll notice when your changed versions are
583 getting moved aside).
585 * INSTALL never documented the etc/*.old thing. Documented the
586 new etc/*.prev thing (including a note to watch for diff output).
588 * Applied Alec Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu>'s dropsbr.c patch:
590 In the map_write routine, a call is made to map_open and this
591 call is supposed to set the "clear" variable to 0 or 1,
592 depending on whether the map file is empty or not. In
593 mh6.8.3, this worked because map_open would set "clear" by
594 calling the mbx_Xopen routine. In nmh, the code for mbx_Xopen
595 was merged into mbx_open, but the interface for mbx_open
596 doesn't support the clear variable, so that functionality was
597 lost. The map_open interface still contains "int *clear" in
598 the prototype, but never sets it.
600 My patch eliminates "clear" from the map_open interface (I
601 checked to make sure that map_write is the only client of
602 map_open). Furthermore, my patch also sets the "clear"
603 variable properly at the beginning of map_write by calling
604 fstat(). This eliminates the bug in that the value of "clear"
605 being used later in the routine was just stack garbage.
607 Having a bad value of clear causes this next bug to be
608 triggered: The fp file pointer was being opened with fdopen,
609 but in two of the three switch cases it wasn't being closed.
610 In certain cases, this was causing packf to run out of file
611 descriptors if you attempted to pack a large folder.
613 Mon May 29 7:48:15 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
615 * Moved the date parsing routines from zotnet/tws to sbr/ (and
616 tws.h to h/). Updated all source files to reflect to new location
619 * Rewrote dparsetime (in dtimep.lex -> dtimep.c) to replace the
620 old zotnet/tws/dtimep.c, dtimep.lex, lexstring.c, lexedit.c, and
621 dtimep.c-lexed. It should now work with flex (although untested
622 with lex), and requires no sed-ing. For now, I have the lexed
623 version in the distribution, so that end-users don't need to worry
624 about running it through flex/lex. I have not added back support
625 for guessing the time zone when it's not specified.
627 Sun May 28 17:44:15 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
629 * Added autoconf check for getutent().
631 * Changed uip/rcvtty.c and uip/slocal.c to use getutent() and
632 friends. Since I can only check on Linux, please check if
633 this works on other systems.
635 Sun May 28 14:58:49 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
637 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to uip/scansbr.c for more
638 checks for write failures.
640 * Unlink temporary file properly in uip/rcvtty.c.
642 * Moved viamail from bindir to libdir.
644 * Changed sendfiles into sendfiles.in, so that path to viamail
647 * Added gzip support to sendfiles.
649 * Added References header to replcomps and replgroupcomps.
651 Sun May 28 14:39:31 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
653 * Fixed m_getfld bug which caused segmentation faults when
654 incorporating messages which ended in multiple linefeeds crossing
657 Fri May 26 13:21:59 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
659 * msh has been unable to show MIME messages ever since 1.0. Alec
660 Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu> tracked down the problem to the
661 -show flag being passed to mhshow. mhshow is equivalent to the
662 old mhn -show, so we don't need the -show anymore. Removed it.
664 Fri May 12 02:51:21 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
666 * zotnet/bboards is not longer built by default. Goal is to move
667 the assorted functions in zotnet into sbr or some more logical
670 * Moved zotnet/mf to sbr, and changed mf.h references accordingly,
671 as well as Makefiles.
673 Thu May 11 02:21:34 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
675 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that both SRCS and OBJS aren't
676 seperately and redundantly defined, but so that OBJS is a
677 pattern-substituted version of SRCS with suffix .c -> .o. This
678 should make maintainability easier.
680 * Added section to MACHINES indicating what platforms nmh is known
681 to compile and work on, just to give users peace of mind, or
682 something. This is by no means complete or exhaustive, so add
683 whatever you know works.
685 Tue May 09 20:38:04 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
687 * Alphabetized Shantonu's $pop_kinds output on configure's "pop is
688 enabled" line. If POP3 is the only kind of POP enabled, say so,
689 rather than just saying "yes" (which is ambiguous).
691 * Fixed four warnings in Shantonu's new getpass.c. Needed to
692 #include <stdlib.h> for calloc(), <unistd.h> for ttyname(), and
693 "h/mh.h" for adios(). Also changed ch from char to int to get rid
694 of "comparison is always 1 due to limited range of data type" on EOF.
696 * Added steps to README.developers saying to change the version
697 number to X.Y.Z+dev. Did a little rearranging and changed the FTP
698 dir from /home/ftp to /var/ftp to reflect Doug's new machine.
700 * Changed configure.in to use gcc -Wall even without
701 --enable-debug, to prevent developers compiling optimized from
702 introducing warnings, and to give end-users a warm, fuzzy feeling
703 as they (hopefully) see no warnings come out (except perhaps on
704 the lex output file) even with -Wall.
706 * Renamed getpass() to nmh_getpass() since the prototype for
707 getpass() varies from OS to OS, and we want to _always_ use our
708 version of the function. Fixed all the callers to use
709 nmh_getpass() and added it to prototypes.h. Semi-arbitrarily
710 upped MAX_PASSWORD_LEN from 128 to 256. buf was being calloc()'d
711 and the memory leaked -- should have just been declared as static
712 char array. Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the
713 copyright message, as this version has been changed significantly
714 from the BSD version.
716 * Added "nmh-local functions to use in preference to OS versions"
717 section to README.developers (currently just says to use
718 nmh_getpass() instead of system getpass()).
720 * Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the copyright message
723 * Added mts.conf.5 page per Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s
726 This happens on solaris:
729 windex entry incorrect: mts.conf(5) not found.
730 No manual entry for mts.conf.
734 % echo ".so man5/mh-tailor.5" > mts.conf.5
736 done in the man5 directory. We need to add 'mts.conf.5' as a
737 reference sourcing mh-tailor.5.
739 Mon May 08 23:51:55 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
741 * Doug informed me that the way I had restored the "lost" version
742 histories was wrong, because `cvs checkout's of old versions of
743 nmh wouldn't work properly. It occurs to me that this could be
744 fixed by simply deleting those tags in the new-location *,v files,
745 but oh well. I'm putting everything back to the way Doug
746 originally had it. To get the old version history for a file that
747 used to be in the top directory, you'll need to "blindly" do a
748 `cvs log' there (even though you won't have a local copy of the
749 file in that directory). `cvs diff' will no longer be able to
750 diff pre-move versions vs. post-move versions -- you'll have to do
751 a lot of manual gyrations with `cvs checkout' and then use `diff'.
753 * I had alphabetized the --configure options in the --help output
754 awhile back, but Shantonu added --enable-apop just under
755 --enable-pop. Put it in alphabetical order and clarified what
756 --enable-apop does vs. --enable-pop and --with-krb4. Also changed
757 --with-mts help line from "mail transport agent" to "mail
758 transport agent/service" so the 's' in "mts" doesn't seem to come
761 * Added two steps to "releasing nmh" in README.developers. After
762 making the tarball, it's a good idea to diff the tree vs. the CVS
763 tree to make sure no files got left out, and then to chown the
764 files so that they're owned by root, preventing a Trojaning attack
765 by a malicious remote user with a UID matching yours.
767 * Changed DIFFERENCES to say that RPOP is not currently supported
768 rather than implying it by saying that APOP, KPOP, and POP[3] are.
770 Sun May 07 18:16:43 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
772 * Imported NetBSD version of getpass() and made extensive
773 revisions for compatibility with programs that pipe the password
774 to stdin, such as exmh.
776 * Removed tests for system ruserpass() which sometimes gave
777 phantom positive results. Also, bext to use internal functions if
778 we ever want to change .netrc format to something else, or access
781 Sat May 06 08:28:09 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
783 * Restored lost version histories for those moved files by doing a
784 manual `mv' in the CVSROOT on mhost. CVS badly needs a `cvs mv'
785 command so that you can move files (without having physical access
786 to the CVSROOT) without losing versioning. Put MACHINES back at
787 the top level as it needs to be read before building. Fixed DIST
788 variable in {.,docs}/Makefile.in to reflect that and to add
789 missing entry for "INSTALL" file.
791 Sat May 06 13:13:07 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
793 * Re-cleaned up nmh documentation (by moving things to docs
794 subdir) and modified Makefile & configure.in to handle the change.
796 Mon Apr 17 21:28:40 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
798 * Scott Blachowicz pointed out that the configure --help output
799 for --enable-masquerade was misleading. Clarified.
801 Mon Apr 17 19:01:00 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
803 * APOP support can be compiled in to inc and msgchk using
806 * To access an APOP host, specify -apop on the command line
807 along with any -host or -user option.
809 Fri Apr 14 23:10:44 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
811 * Upped the version number to 1.0.4+dev until the next nmh release.
813 * Added a "releasing nmh" section to README.developers, while the
814 process was fresh in my mind.
816 Fri Apr 14 18:21:34 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
818 * Added new files README.developers, ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6, and
819 ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html to DIST target in Makefile.in.
821 * Released nmh-1.0.4.
823 Tue Apr 11 21:37:03 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
825 * Applied Brian Campbell <bacam@tardis.ed.ac.uk>'s mhn.defaults.sh
828 It appears that there shouldn't be quotes around the %s in the
829 iso-8859-1 charset entry; xterm passes the remaining arguments
830 to the program, quoting them means that xterm thinks they're
831 part of the program's name.
833 This %s isn't the same as the "Insert content subtype" one from
834 mhshow-show-* -- it doesn't come from MIME headers and is safe not
837 Sun Apr 09 13:03:59 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
839 * added check in fmt_compile() to handle a single-character
840 format string. fmt_compile() depends on having an array of
841 format characters with an empty item at the end. A
842 single-character format would cause programs using this
843 function to segfault because the algorithm used to decide on
844 the length of the array mistakenly created a single-item array
845 when the format string was one character. This eventually
846 caused problems when the program attempted to test item+1
849 Thu Apr 06 21:53:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
851 * Richard Coleman threw out a lot of old MH-specific files in nmh.
852 Much of the stuff, indeed, is not worth saving, but there are
853 nuggets that are very worthwhile, and should probably be added
854 back in. Most important, IMHO, are the MH change logs, as they
855 can help answer questions like "Why is this code like this?" or
856 "How long has this been broken?" or "What was this ever used for?"
858 I've added a new file to the nmh tree called
859 ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6. It's cobbled together from the
860 mh-6.8.4/papers/mh*/MHCHANGES files. I've re-ordered the entries
861 to go from newest at the top to oldest at the bottom to match the
862 ChangeLog convention. Unfortunately there are no change logs for
863 versions of MH prior to 3 in the MH tar files available at
864 <ftp://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/mh>. Also, it appears to me that there
865 are MH-6.6 changes that aren't documented in the logs.
867 I've also added ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html. This is
868 based on mh-6.8.4/papers/changes/mh-changes.ms. The nroff format
869 and its "catman"-type output are a pain to deal with, but I was
870 loath to throw away the formatting, so I converted the file to
871 HTML. The only actual markup in the body are the "<B>" and "<U>"
872 tags, and "<" and ">" instead of '<' and '>', so it's quite
873 doable to view the file in plain ASCII mode as well. Note that
874 some of the changes this file documents as having been made in
875 MH-6.8.4 may not be present in nmh -- Richard started with 6.8.3
876 and later put in certain 6.8.4 stuff.
878 Wed Apr 05 21:09:28 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
880 * Applied Eric Schnoebelen <eric@cirr.com>'s mhshowsbr.c patch
881 fixing apparent bugs in Dan Winship's new security quoting code:
883 Since upgrading, I've been getting the following errors
884 while attempting to process some MIME messages:
886 (1) Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
891 (2) line 1/10 (END)Segmentation fault (core dumped)
893 (2) appears to be due to the testing of an unset pointer in
894 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux(). (1) appears to be caused by
895 mis-quoting a filename being handed to the shell in
896 mhshowsbr.c:show_content_aux().
898 Resolving the pointer reference issue in
899 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux() turned up a similar mis-quoting
900 problem in the routine.
902 Tue Mar 28 16:17:39 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
904 * Applied Todd.Miller@courtesan.com's patch to dropsbr.c to
905 prevent core dumping on packf. Here's the note from his message:
907 Since sizeof(buffer) == sizeof(tmpbuffer) packf will dump
908 core on a file w/o a From line with a line >= BUFSIZ.
909 I noticed this because I had a junk file in my mail
912 Fri Mar 17 11:59:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
914 * wesley.craig@umich.edu did not document his previous KPOP patch,
915 so I did so, and asked him to check what I wrote. Unfortunately
916 he didn't notice my misunderstanding of his patch. I wrote that
917 if you #define POPSERVICE "kpop", inc and msgchk will use KPOP
918 exclusively, but if you leave it as "pop3", you can use Wesley's
919 new -kpop switch on a given invocation. Instead, however, -kpop
920 turned out to be necessary on every invocation, and a KPOP user
921 complained. Applied Wesley's new patch, which makes things work
922 like I thought his original patch did. After that, did one more
923 clarifying pass to the documentation in inc.man and msgchk.man.
925 Wed Mar 15 18:45:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
927 * When I fixed the long-standing makedir() bugs in January, I had
928 the code call strtoul(..., 0), which I believed to be safe as all
929 modes specified as ASCII constants in the nmh code started with a
930 leading zero (signifying octal), which I did as it would work if
931 internal constants were ever changed to hex. Unfortunately I was
932 unaware of the "Folder-Protect:" .mh_profile entry, which
933 mh-profile.man documents as an octal-only constant, with no
934 leading zero required. I've changed the strtoul() call to an
935 atooi() call and removed the misleading leading zeroes on the
936 ASCII octal constants in the code and man pages. Also changed the
937 "Folder-Protect:" example in the man page to something more
938 interesting than a duplication of the default.
940 * When I added my --enable-masquerade option, you'll note that I
941 didn't make it --enable-nmh-masquerade. I find the --enable-nmh-*
942 options too wordy and I'm not sure why Richard went that route.
943 I've renamed them to just --enable-*, but the old versions will
944 still work as well (they just aren't advertised).
946 * Added a line to the "nmh configuration" output saying whether
949 * Added a new README.developers file. From the file:
951 This file is intended to provide a few tips for anyone doing
952 development on nmh. Developers who learn things "the hard
953 way" about the nmh codebase (as opposed to local info best
954 encoded in a comment) are encouraged to share their wisdom
957 Currently the topics are "autoconf files" and "directory structure".
959 Tue Mar 14 12:41:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
961 * Applied, after some finessing,
962 Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s --with-smtpservers patch:
964 Here's a patch that allows you to add
966 --with-smtpservers=<some.host.name>
968 to the ./configure command line to set the "servers: " line in
969 etc/mts.conf. Around here, we use "mailhost" so that all
970 machines in the current domain just talk to a central machine
971 and nothing else runs an MTA. Now, I can use
973 --with-smtpservers=mailhost
975 instead of having to remember to fix this by hand (and often
976 forgetting to do so!).
978 * Inspired by Simon's patch, added an --enable-masquerade option
979 to configure. It will set the "masquerade:" line of mts.conf.
980 You may specify a subset of the three types of masquerading, like
981 --enable-masquerade="draft_from mmailid", or leave off explicit
982 arguments to enable all three types.
984 * Alphabetized the --enable and --with options in configure.in and
985 INSTALL and added documentation of the two new options to the latter.
987 * Added new dependency for mts.conf: Makefile. If this isn't
988 done, then when you reconfigure nmh with new values for
989 --enable-masquerade or --with-smtpservers, you'll fail to get an
990 updated copy of mts.conf.
992 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtimep.lex patch:
994 It seems that some MUA's didn't handle y2k very well - ELM
995 seems to be one of them, and Ultrix's DXmail (based on MH!).
996 I've got a few emails this month that look like:
998 575 Jan 00 Xxxxxx Xxxx 3603 ...
1000 22+ Jan 00 Xxx Xxxxx 1771 ...
1002 The first has "15 Jan 100" as the date and the second has
1003 "19 Jan 00" as the date. The following works around this so
1004 that scan, show, sortm, etc work ok.
1006 I put Simon's patch under the control of a new #define called
1007 FIX_NON_Y2K_COMPLIANT_MUA_DATES. There's some commentary in
1008 acconfig.h about when you might not want to #define it.
1010 * Created new dtimep.c-lexed with Simon's change using dtimep.lex
1011 lexed on Solaris 2.6. Added missing dependency in
1012 zotnet/tws/Makefile.in for dtimep.c: dtimep.c-lexed.
1014 * Added scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD format files.
1016 Mon Mar 13 21:32:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1018 * Applied Sullivan N. Beck <sbeck@cise.ufl.edu>'s mhshow-suffix patch:
1020 With the patch below, you can add lines like:
1022 mhshow-suffix-application/msword: .doc
1023 mhshow-suffix-application/PostScript: .ps
1025 to the mhn.defaults file to append the given suffix to a
1026 scratch file. This allows applications which require a
1027 certain suffix to run properly.
1029 * Removed -force_html from lynx entry in mhn.defaults.sh (I
1030 believe older versions of lynx lack that option) and added
1031 "mhshow-suffix-text/html: .html".
1033 * Modified username_extension masquerading to only use the
1034 extended address on generated [Resent-]From: lines and SMTP
1035 envelope From:. With Neil's original implementation, nmh's global
1036 idea of the username was changed, which would result in inc lying
1037 and saying you had no new mail because it was looking for a
1038 mailbox called, for instance, "dan-nmh" (where username was "dan"
1039 and $USERNAME_EXTENSION was "-nmh").
1041 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtime.c patch:
1043 There's a wrap-around problem that affects the implementation
1044 of Zeller's congruence in dtime.c. This causes the day-of-week
1045 calculations to fail for dates after Feb 29, 2000 (probably up
1046 until some year far in the future).
1048 Mon Mar 06 12:20:20 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1050 * Applied Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s msh.c patch:
1052 I finally tracked down the problem in msh that was causing
1053 errors whenever I tried to examine a 'mmdf' style mailbox.
1055 It turns out that not enough memory was being allocated with
1056 calloc(), causing memory pointers to be overwritten and
1059 Fri Mar 03 16:07:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1061 * Changed the new "plussed_user" option to mts.conf's
1062 "masquerade:" to "username_extension" after getting feedback from
1063 qmail users, who use '-' as a separator rather than '+'. Removed
1064 checking of $USERPLUS variable. Now check $USERNAME_EXTENSION,
1065 which needs to include the appropriate separator for your MTA
1066 ('-', '+', or whatever) as its first character.
1068 Thu Mar 02 23:04:30 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1070 * Added a new "boolean" type to mh.h and TRUE and FALSE constants.
1072 * Added a note to DIFFERENCES stating that it's out-of-date
1073 (Richard was the last one to update it) and that we should
1074 consider only documenting incompatibilities with MH there.
1076 * Implemented (and documented) a third kind of username
1077 masquerading: "plussed user" masquerading. This one was suggested
1078 by Neil Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>. It's based on sendmail's
1079 "plussed user" feature, where mail sent to <user>+<string> will be
1080 delivered to <user>. When it's enabled, it's controlled by the
1081 $USERPLUS environment variable. How is it enabled? Well, that
1084 * Renamed the "mmailid:" setting in mts.conf to "masquerade:", and
1085 changed it so that rather than being a boolean, it can be set to
1086 any combination of the three values "draft_from", "mmailid", and
1087 "plussed_user". Thus it is now possible to enable the three types
1088 of masquerading individually.
1090 * Fixed a bug with "mmailid" masquerading (dating back to MH?)
1091 where if it was turned on, ','s would no longer be considered
1092 GECOS field delimiters.
1094 Wed Mar 01 23:30:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1096 * Changed the GECOS-field '&' translation behavior to be
1097 controlled by the BSD42 #define rather than GCOS_HACK, since it's
1098 apparently always appropriate on OSes where BSD42 is #defined, and
1099 never appropriate on any other OSes. Thanks to Kimmo Suominen for
1100 responding to my "What is this code here for?" comment in mts.c
1101 and explaining the feature.
1103 Mon Feb 28 21:50:29 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1105 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3+dev (ideally this should be
1106 done by whoever makes a release tar file, immediately after doing
1109 * Applied Paul Fox <pgf-spam@foxharp.boston.ma.us>'s scansbr.c
1110 patch, posted to comp.mail.mh, which he says prevents loss of mail
1111 when inc'ing into a full filesystem.
1113 * Changed "echo > stamp-h.in" in Makefile.in to "date > stamp-h.in"
1114 so that stamp-h.in will be different each time configure.in and
1115 related files are changed, making it easier to check it in (which
1116 is necessary to prevent unnecessary autoconf calls).
1118 * My declaration of initgroups() in slocal.c to eliminate the "no
1119 prototype" warning wasn't portable (FreeBSD 3.[23] choked). Now
1120 use AC_EGREP_HEADER to see where initgroups() is declared, if
1123 Sun Feb 20 12:17:15 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1125 * Fix security hole in mhshowsbr.c which allowed untrusted shell
1126 code to be executed.
1128 * Released nmh 1.0.3.
1130 Thu Feb 10 10:54:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1132 * Oops. %-escapes on mhstore lines in mhn.defaults.sh should not
1133 be surrounded by single quotes, as a shell is not spawned when
1134 just saving files, and the filenames will end up with literal
1135 quotes embedded in them.
1137 Fri Feb 04 12:29:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1139 * Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
1140 got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
1141 the -help output. One theory is that they were making reference
1142 to the fact that clearly you know about the -help option since
1143 you're currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea
1144 to overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
1145 supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
1148 The other theory is that because you can say something like
1149 "mhstore -" and get "mhstore: - ambiguous. It matches" followed
1150 by the same list of switches you get with -help, they were saying
1151 you can "sorta" abbreviate "-help" as "-". You don't get the
1152 "Usage:" string, though, so it's not really the same thing.
1154 Thu Feb 03 17:52:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1156 * Applied wesley.craig@umich.edu's KPOP patches. According to him:
1158 The following patch fixes a problem with requesting a
1159 service key for a machine that has multiple 'A' records. It
1160 also makes "-kpop" a command line option, for users who
1161 would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".
1163 Did no testing of the new features, as I don't have access to a
1166 * Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
1168 * Modified INSTALL and config.h.in to reflect the new -kpop feature.
1170 Fri Jan 28 17:39:24 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1172 * All %-escapes in mhn.defaults that actually expand to something
1173 should be surrounded by single quotes. Added quotes to the ones
1174 in mhn.defaults.sh that were missing them.
1176 * Added check for lynx to write mhshow-show-text/html line in
1179 Thu Jan 27 12:22:25 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1181 * makedir() had multiple bugs dating back to MH. An octal
1182 constant was apparently being interpreted as decimal, resulting in
1183 directories with no user read or execute permissions, making
1184 nested directory creation fail. And there wasn't even an
1185 _attempt_ to set desired permissions (e.g. from "Folder-Protect:"
1186 in .mh_profile) on the outer directories of a nested directory.
1188 * A second `make install' would always fail because the check for
1189 whether mh_profile.5 existed was written incorrectly.
1191 Wed Jan 26 02:22:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1193 * Added documentation on both types of masquerading to post's man
1196 Tue Jan 25 22:58:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1198 * Doug's portability fix of my setgid inc autodetection had a
1199 caching bug -- if you re-ran configure, uip/Makefile would be
1200 corrupted, and installation would bomb out on OSes where inc needs
1203 * Implemented a new kind of email address masquerading. Usually,
1204 when a user writes a custom "From:" header in a draft, nmh uses it
1205 rather than generating one. However, the user's true address is
1206 used in the SMTP envelope "From:" and is revealed in the "Sender:"
1207 header. Now, when mmailid is set to non-zero, the envelope
1208 "From:" uses the address specified in the draft "From:" header,
1209 and there is no "Sender:" header. This is useful when sending on
1210 behalf of a remote POP3 account or when remote mail robots
1211 incorrectly use the envelope "From:" in preference to the body
1212 "From:". This processing has only been implemented for post, not
1213 for the undocumented spost (which was already missing some "From:"
1214 processing that post has).
1216 Mon Jan 24 22:26:06 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1218 * Got rid of the rest of the gcc -Wall warnings that I didn't have
1219 time for on 1999-07-15 (and, it would seem, some new ones people
1220 introduced since then). The primary ones were the warnings that
1221 default prototypes were being used for [v]snprintf() and
1222 str[n]casecmp(). As of right now, there are _no_ compilation
1223 warnings except on dtimep.c-lexed (at least under AIX 4.1.5 and
1226 Sun Jan 2 23:42:18 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1228 * Move mhtest from bindir to libdir.
1230 * Move sendfiles from libdir to bindir.
1232 * Updated sendfiles manpage to reflect this change.
1234 * Added documentation for -build and -file switches to repl and
1235 forw manpages (patch from Peter Maydell).
1237 * Fixed interaction between specifying -cc in profile and -group on
1240 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1242 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
1243 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
1244 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
1247 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1249 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
1250 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
1251 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
1252 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
1253 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
1254 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).
1256 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1258 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
1260 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1262 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
1263 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
1264 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
1265 caught again. This works for now.
1267 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
1269 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1271 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
1272 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
1274 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1276 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
1277 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
1279 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
1281 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
1283 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1285 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
1286 changes. Both need more cleanup.
1288 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1290 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
1291 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
1292 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
1293 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
1294 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
1297 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1299 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
1300 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
1301 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
1303 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
1304 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
1307 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1309 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
1310 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
1311 to a directory on another device with more free space.
1313 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1315 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
1316 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
1318 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1320 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
1323 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
1324 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
1326 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
1327 macros, regardless of platform.
1329 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
1330 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1332 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
1333 with x-conversions=gzip.
1335 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1337 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
1340 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
1341 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
1342 implicit definition of ioctl().
1344 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
1345 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
1346 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
1347 want to mess with them.
1349 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1351 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
1352 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
1354 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
1355 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
1357 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
1358 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
1359 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
1361 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
1362 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
1363 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
1365 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
1366 function initgroups.
1368 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
1371 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
1372 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
1375 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
1376 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
1379 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
1380 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
1384 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1386 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
1387 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
1388 preventing compilation on at least linux.
1390 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
1391 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
1393 Thu Sep 09 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1395 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
1397 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
1398 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
1399 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
1400 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
1402 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
1403 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
1405 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1407 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
1409 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1411 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
1412 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
1414 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1416 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
1417 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
1419 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
1420 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
1421 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
1422 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
1424 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
1425 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
1427 Sat Jun 09 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1429 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
1430 substitute it for mktemp if available.
1432 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1434 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
1435 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
1438 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
1440 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
1442 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
1444 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
1445 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
1447 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
1448 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
1449 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
1451 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
1452 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
1453 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
1455 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
1456 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
1457 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1459 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
1460 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
1463 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
1464 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1466 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
1467 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1469 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
1470 <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1472 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
1473 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
1474 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1476 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
1477 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1479 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
1480 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
1481 <elleron@servtech.com>.
1483 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
1484 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
1487 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
1488 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
1490 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
1491 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
1492 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
1493 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
1495 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
1496 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
1498 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1502 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
1503 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
1504 would not be changed.
1506 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
1507 one from the Apache web server.
1509 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
1510 (this should have been done a long time ago).
1512 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
1513 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
1514 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
1516 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
1518 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
1520 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
1521 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
1524 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
1525 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
1526 removes a bad race condition.
1528 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
1531 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
1532 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
1533 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
1535 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
1536 sequence information.
1538 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
1539 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
1541 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
1544 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
1547 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
1549 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
1550 interpret 034 as octal.
1552 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
1554 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
1555 mhstore, and mhbuild.
1557 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
1558 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
1560 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
1561 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
1563 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
1564 in the c_cefile structure when building.
1566 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
1567 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
1569 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
1570 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
1571 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
1573 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
1574 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
1575 and mhshow. Updated man pages
1577 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
1579 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
1581 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
1582 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
1585 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
1587 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
1588 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
1590 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
1591 header field information.
1593 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
1594 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
1596 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
1597 values when parsing a content.
1599 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
1600 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
1602 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
1603 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
1605 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
1606 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1608 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
1609 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
1611 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
1613 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
1615 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
1617 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
1619 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
1620 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
1623 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
1624 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
1626 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
1627 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
1628 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
1629 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
1630 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
1631 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
1634 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1636 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
1637 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
1638 buffer length checks for this parameter.
1640 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
1641 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
1643 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1645 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
1646 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
1647 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
1648 of the limits on the length of command lines.
1650 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
1651 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
1654 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
1655 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
1656 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
1657 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
1660 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1662 * Released nmh-0.27.
1664 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
1665 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
1667 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
1668 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
1669 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
1670 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
1673 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
1674 mhbuild returns an error.
1676 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
1677 rename the draft file.
1679 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
1680 use a global variable.
1682 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
1683 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
1685 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
1686 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
1688 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
1689 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
1690 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
1692 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
1693 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
1695 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
1696 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
1699 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
1700 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
1703 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
1704 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
1706 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
1707 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
1708 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
1710 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
1711 to new function output_content_folder.
1713 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
1714 new function output_content_file.
1716 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
1717 to new function parse_format_string.
1719 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
1720 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
1721 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
1722 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
1724 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
1725 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
1726 message/external file from ftp.
1728 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
1729 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
1730 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
1732 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
1733 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
1736 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
1739 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
1740 new file mhstoresbr.c
1742 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
1745 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
1746 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
1748 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
1749 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
1751 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
1752 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
1753 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
1755 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
1757 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
1759 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
1760 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
1763 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
1764 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
1766 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
1769 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
1771 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1773 * Released nmh-0.26.
1775 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
1776 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
1777 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
1778 is still the same (dashstuffing).
1780 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
1781 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
1782 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
1783 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
1784 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
1786 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
1787 But it is not on by default.
1789 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
1790 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
1792 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
1794 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
1796 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
1798 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
1800 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
1801 number of the "cur" message when packing.
1803 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1805 * Released nmh-0.25.
1807 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
1808 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
1809 uses the original name of the library.
1811 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
1812 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
1815 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
1816 list_content and list_debug.
1818 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
1820 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
1821 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.
1823 1998-02-27 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1825 * Released nmh-0.24.
1827 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
1829 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
1830 are given, that order doesn't matter.
1832 * Fix bug in seq_list.c when realloc'ing for
1833 large sequence line.
1835 1998-02-23 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1837 * Released nmh-0.23.
1839 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
1841 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
1842 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan
1843 content, decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary
1844 string). I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
1846 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
1847 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
1850 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
1852 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
1854 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
1856 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
1857 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
1859 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
1860 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.
1862 * Add note to MACHINES file that on Linux, configure
1863 doesn't find the functions sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
1865 * Fix configuration for machines that don't have (or find)
1866 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
1868 1998-02-11 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1870 * Released nmh-0.22.
1872 * Add a configure check for sigsetjmp. Add some conditional
1873 #define's in h/signals.h in case it's not found.
1875 * Added additional notes about -auto switch in mhn man page.
1877 * Added note about MM_CHARSET environment variable to
1878 mh-profile(5) man page.
1880 * Fix signal problem in mhn.c (change setjmp/longjmp to
1881 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp).
1883 1998-02-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1885 * Released nmh-0.22-pre1.
1887 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
1888 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
1890 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
1892 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
1893 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
1894 entry point for parsing MIME files.
1896 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
1897 source message on the standard input.
1899 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
1901 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
1902 rather than -rfc934mode.
1904 * Fix mhbuild, so that Content-Description and RFC-822 comments
1905 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
1908 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
1909 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).
1911 * Restore HP specific code to zotnet/tws/lexstring.c. Apparently
1914 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1916 * Released nmh-0.21.
1918 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
1919 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.
1921 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what transfer
1924 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what character set
1925 to use for text contents.
1927 * Removed old hpux specific code from zotnet/tws/lexstring.c
1929 1998-02-02 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1931 * Released nmh-0.21-pre2.
1933 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
1935 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
1936 header fields as per RFC-2047.
1938 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
1939 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
1940 spaces between encoded word are.
1942 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
1944 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
1945 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
1947 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
1948 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
1949 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
1951 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
1953 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
1954 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
1956 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.
1958 * Added support for %(decode) to fmtdump.c.
1960 * check_charset() now accepts US-ASCII as a subset of any
1961 ISO-8859-X character set.
1963 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
1966 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
1967 permissions, not write permissions.
1969 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
1970 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
1972 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
1975 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1977 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
1979 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
1980 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
1982 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
1983 message contains valid character set.
1985 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
1986 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
1988 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
1989 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
1991 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
1992 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
1993 between an encoded word and normal text.
1995 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
1996 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
1998 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
1999 as a RFC-2047 header field.
2001 * The command install-mh now recognizes the switches -version
2004 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
2005 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
2008 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
2009 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
2011 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
2012 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
2014 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
2016 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2018 * Released nmh-0.20.
2020 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
2022 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.
2024 * Changed the default format file for mhl (mhl.format) to
2025 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
2026 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
2028 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
2029 and the To: line was missing.
2031 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
2033 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2035 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
2037 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
2038 watch the POP transaction.
2040 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
2041 first, and use it if available.
2043 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
2044 first, and use it if available.
2046 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2048 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
2050 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
2051 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
2052 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
2055 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
2056 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
2057 returns the state FLDPLUS.
2059 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
2060 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
2063 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
2065 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
2066 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
2068 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
2070 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
2071 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
2073 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
2074 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
2075 message to which you are replying.
2077 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
2078 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
2079 making group replies.
2081 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
2083 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2085 * Released nmh-0.19.
2087 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
2088 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
2090 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
2091 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
2092 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
2093 to the end of the man page.
2095 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
2096 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
2097 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
2098 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
2099 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
2100 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
2102 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
2105 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
2106 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
2107 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
2109 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
2110 the next available number above the message number you wish
2113 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
2114 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
2116 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
2117 file sbr/seq_print.c
2119 * flist will now update the current folder.
2121 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
2122 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
2123 but now undocumented.
2125 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
2128 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
2129 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
2131 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
2133 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
2134 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
2136 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2138 * Released nmh-0.18.
2140 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
2141 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
2142 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
2144 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
2145 retains the public/private status of sequences.
2147 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
2148 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
2149 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
2150 previous public/private status.
2152 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
2155 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
2158 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
2159 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
2160 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
2162 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
2163 take option to determine whether it should get current
2164 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
2165 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
2167 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
2169 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
2170 wait for stopped processes.
2172 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
2173 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
2175 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2177 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
2179 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
2180 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
2182 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
2183 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
2185 * Change the way that memory for message status is
2186 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
2187 the folder/message structure. This required changing
2188 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
2190 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
2193 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
2196 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
2198 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
2199 the debugging output.
2201 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
2202 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
2204 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2206 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
2208 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
2209 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
2211 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
2213 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
2214 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
2215 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
2216 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
2217 in the given sequence.
2219 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
2220 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
2221 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
2222 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
2223 subdirectories of a given directory.
2225 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
2226 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
2227 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
2229 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
2230 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
2232 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
2234 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
2237 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
2238 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
2239 fields are now calculated at runtime.
2241 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
2242 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
2243 are calculated at runtime.
2245 Sun Nov 30 19:14:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2247 * Released nmh-0.18-pre2.
2249 * Add paragraph to man page for install-mh and to INSTALL file
2250 about checking for global mh.profile.
2252 * Renamed m_find() to context_find().
2253 Renamed m_replace() to context_replace().
2254 Renamed m_delete() to context_del().
2255 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
2256 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
2257 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
2259 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
2260 adding message to folder itself.
2262 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
2263 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
2264 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
2267 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
2268 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
2271 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
2272 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
2273 is the same as the direct smtp code).
2275 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
2276 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
2278 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
2279 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
2280 code to use it yet).

2284 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.
2286 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never

2290 context is updated before external rmmproc is called.
2292 * Removed all the OVERHEAD code.
2294 * Move code to add message to folder from refile.c
2297 Fri Jul 25 19:39:29 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2299 * Did some rearranging of the internals of inc.c.
2301 * Make -inplace the default for anno, forw, dist, and repl.
2303 * Changed --enable-smtp to --with-mts={smtp,sendmail}

2330 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
2332 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
2333 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
2335 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
2338 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
2339 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
2341 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
2342 number of refiled message.
2344 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
2346 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
2347 for return value of wait().

2351 Sat Jul 12 00:02:23 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2353 * Released nmh-0.16.
2355 Mon Jun 23 20:13:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2357 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
2359 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
2360 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
2361 deal with binary messages, yet).
2363 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
2365 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
2367 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
2368 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
2369 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
2370 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
2371 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
2372 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
2374 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
2375 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
2377 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
2378 From MH-6.8.4 patch.

2381 #forw with single message. From John MacMillan (and
2384 * Changed -mhnproc switch for show, to -showmimeproc.
2386 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".
2388 * Added "mime" option to "whatnow", which calls the program
2389 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
2392 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
2395 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
2397 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
2398 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
2399 which used unsigned chars by default.
2401 Sat Jun 21 01:21:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2403 * Released nmh-0.15.
2405 * Added new form "scan.unseen" to distribution. It marks messages

2410 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
2412 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
2415 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
2416 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
2417 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
2419 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
2420 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
2422 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
2424 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
2425 they conflict with defines on AIX.
2427 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
2428 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
2429 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
2430 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
2432 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
2433 and put in own subroutine.
2435 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
2436 and put in own subroutine.
2438 * Moved code to remove messages from folder into own
2439 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and
2440 refile.c to use new routine.
2442 Fri May 16 06:09:31 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2444 * Renamed m_seqok to seq_nameok.
2446 * Changed m_setunseen, msh, mshcmds, flist, and scan to use
2449 * Changed m_seqflag to return the number of a sequence rather
2450 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
2451 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
2453 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
2456 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before
2457 adding message to sequence.

2460 corresponding file in sbr.
2462 * Renamed function m_setseq to m_setprev, and renamed corresponding
2465 * Changed mark.c and pick.c to use m_seqaddsel and m_seqdelsel.
2467 * Added new function m_seqdelsel to m_seqdel.c, which deletes
2468 all selected messages from a sequence.
2470 * Added new function m_seqaddsel to m_seqadd.c, which adds all
2471 selected messages to a sequence.
2473 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,
2476 Thu May 15 00:53:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2478 * Renamed function pack_folder to m_packfolder, and moved it
2479 from uip/folder.c into its own file sbr/m_packfolder.c
2481 Wed May 14 23:38:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2483 * Changed function m_gmsg to m_readfolder. Renamed file

2500 * Added new options `-checkmime', `-nocheckmime', and `-mhnproc'
2501 to show. Restructured code to handle options to various
2502 `procs' better. Deprecated `-noshowproc' option and NOMHNPROC
2503 environment variable.
2505 * Added new man page `mh-draft' which documents the
2506 draft folder facility in nmh.
2508 * Renamed fmtsbr.h to fmt_scan.h. Renamed fmtcompile.h

2520 * Released nmh-0.13.
2522 * Changed mhpath so it doesn't abort if a message sequence
2523 such as "mhpath all" expands to more than 1000 messages.
2524 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
2525 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
2528 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
2529 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
2531 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2533 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if
2534 necessary. So `folders' can now handle more than 300 folders.
2536 Tue Apr 22 14:01:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2538 * Change configure to use a compile check to see if the tm struct
2539 has tm_gmtoff, rather than using egrep.

2555 mp->attrstats with macros.
2557 * If system doesn't have SIGEMT (like Linux), then use SIGTERM
2560 * Change fstat to stat in m_gmsg.c since Linux wants
2563 * Merge Linux patch sent in by Michel Oosterhof (original
2564 patch from bsa@kf8nh.wariat.org).
2566 * Document an undocumented MH feature. mhn -form mhl.null
2567 will suppress the display of the message header.
2569 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
2571 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c
2572 and mshcmds.c, rather than hard coding in /bin/cat.
2574 * Add mhnproc to the list of `procs' in mh-profile.man.
2576 * Add configure test for lorder and tsort commands.
2578 * Commented out the padding in the `msgs` struct in h/mh.h
2580 * Change m_gmsg.c to allocate elements to the `info' array by
2581 500 elements at a time (rather than MAXFOLDERS / 5).
2583 * Add note to man page for mhmail that zero length messages are
2584 not sent. Need to use -body "" to send empty messages.
2586 * zotnet/mts/mts.c : compare character with '\0', not NULL.
2588 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
2590 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
2591 folder/message structure when done with folder.
2593 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is
2594 defined even if message is missing "From " line.
2596 Mon Mar 31 03:37:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2598 * Released nmh-0.10.

2605 Thu Mar 20 03:21:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2607 * Reversed previous decision to retain "From " lines in slocal.
2608 The "From " line is now removed from all messages.
2610 * inc now saves the date from the "From " envelope in the
2611 Delivery-Date header for all messages.
2613 * sbr/m_getfld.c: Clean up processing of Return-Path and
2614 Delivery-Date from the "From " envelope.
2616 Mon Mar 17 19:03:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2618 * client.c: cast iaddr to int before comparing return value
2619 of inet_addr with NOTOK.
2621 Tue Mar 11 04:38:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2623 * Grep test for signal names was failing on some OS'es because
2624 of missing tabs in regex.

2646 * ruserpass.c : removed conflicting prototypes.
2648 * rcvtty.c : Fixed rcvtty to obey terminal permissions granted
2649 by `mesg' command. Previously only worked on BSD machines.
2651 Mon Mar 3 00:18:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2653 * rcvtty.c : Changed to use #define UTMP_FILE (if exists) rather
2654 than hard coded "/etc/utmp".
2656 * Released nmh-0.08.
2658 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
2659 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of
2660 locking database itself.
2662 Thu Feb 27 05:28:09 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2664 * Added slocal action `mmdf' to deliver to a file in mmdf format.
2666 * Changed the slocal actions `file' and `>' to always deliver in
2667 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
2670 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
2671 rather than mmdf format.
2673 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
2674 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
2675 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
2676 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
2678 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
2680 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2682 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
2685 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2686 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2687 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
2689 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2690 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2691 rcvpack so you can choose the preferred format.
2693 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2695 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
2696 can still easily change this in config.h).
2698 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
2699 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
2700 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
2702 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2704 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather
2705 than tzset and external timezone variable.

2714 * Released nmh-0.07.
2716 Tue Feb 11 01:29:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2718 * Add check to configure, so that if ruserpass, or _ruserpass
2719 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
2721 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
2722 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
2725 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
2726 built-in FTP client in mhn.
2728 * Added configure check for ushort and ulong. Change code
2729 to use ushort/ulong rather than u_short/u_long.
2731 * A couple of small cleanups in locking code.
2733 * Added configure check for gmtoff element in struct tm.
2735 * Added configure check for tzset.
2737 Fri Feb 7 03:01:57 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2739 * Released nmh-0.06.
2741 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
2742 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
2744 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
2745 many such machines around anymore.
2747 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
2748 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
2750 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
2751 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
2753 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2755 * Check lex generated file in zotnet/tws and use
2756 pre-generated version if necessary.
2758 * Released nmh-0.05.
2760 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
2761 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
2762 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
2763 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
2765 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
2766 be linked in one pass.
2768 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2770 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
2771 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
2773 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2775 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
2777 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2779 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
2780 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
2781 become the current folder.
2783 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2785 * Released nmh-0.04.
2787 * Define ospeed and PC in termsbr.c is OS doesn't have
2790 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2792 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
2793 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
2794 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
2796 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2798 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
2799 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
2801 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2803 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
2804 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
2807 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
2808 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
2810 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2812 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
2813 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
2814 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
2815 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
2816 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
2817 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
2819 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2821 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
2822 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
2824 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
2825 a file (currently need to specify full path).
2827 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2829 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
2830 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
2832 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2834 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
2835 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
2836 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
2838 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2840 * Released nmh-0.03.
2842 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
2843 .mh_sequence file existed.
2845 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
2846 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
2848 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
2849 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
2852 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2854 * Changed flist option -unseen to -[no]all. Cleaned up
2857 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2859 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
2860 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
2861 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
2863 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2865 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
2866 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
2867 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
2869 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2871 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL

2876 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2878 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
2879 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
2880 directory from where the source code is located.
2882 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2884 * Released nmh-0.02.

2905 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
2906 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path

2910 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2912 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
2914 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with
2915 macro defined on Solaris.
2917 Thu Dec 26 02:50:15 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2919 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
2920 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
2922 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
2923 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
2924 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man

2928 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2930 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker

2936 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2938 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
2940 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included

2945 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
2946 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
2948 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2950 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
2951 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
2952 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
2953 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
2954 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
2955 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
2957 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2959 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
2961 * Released nmh-0.01.
2963 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
2964 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
2965 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
2968 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2970 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
2973 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2975 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
2976 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
2978 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2980 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
2981 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
2982 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
2983 script to find_program.
2985 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2987 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
2988 speed up -recurse option.
2990 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
2991 yet, but it compiles :-)
2993 * Changed default location for install to
2994 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
2995 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
2996 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
2999 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
3000 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
3001 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
