1 Tue Mar 14 12:41:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
3 * Applied, after some finessing,
4 Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s --with-smtpservers patch:
6 Here's a patch that allows you to add
8 --with-smtpservers=<some.host.name>
10 to the ./configure command line to set the "servers: " line in
11 etc/mts.conf. Around here, we use "mailhost" so that all
12 machines in the current domain just talk to a central machine
13 and nothing else runs an MTA. Now, I can use
15 --with-smtpservers=mailhost
17 instead of having to remember to fix this by hand (and often
18 forgetting to do so!).
20 * Inspired by Simon's patch, added an --enable-masquerade option
21 to configure. It will set the "masquerade:" line of mts.conf.
22 You may specify a subset of the three types of masquerading, like
23 --enable-masquerade="draft_from mmailid", or leave off explicit
24 arguments to enable all three types.
26 * Alphabetized the --enable and --with options in configure.in and
27 INSTALL and added documentation of the two new options to the latter.
29 * Added new dependency for mts.conf: Makefile. If this isn't
30 done, then when you reconfigure nmh with new values for
31 --enable-masquerade or --with-smtpservers, you'll fail to get an
32 updated copy of mts.conf.
34 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtimep.lex patch:
36 It seems that some MUA's didn't handle y2k very well - ELM
37 seems to be one of them, and Ultrix's DXmail (based on MH!).
38 I've got a few emails this month that look like:
40 575 Jan 00 Xxxxxx Xxxx 3603 ...
42 22+ Jan 00 Xxx Xxxxx 1771 ...
44 The first has "15 Jan 100" as the date and the second has
45 "19 Jan 00" as the date. The following works around this so
46 that scan, show, sortm, etc work ok.
48 I put Simon's patch under the control of a new #define called
49 FIX_NON_Y2K_COMPLIANT_MUA_DATES. There's some commentary in
50 acconfig.h about when you might not want to #define it.
52 * Created new dtimep.c-lexed with Simon's change using dtimep.lex
53 lexed on Solaris 2.6. Added missing dependency in
54 zotnet/tws/Makefile.in for dtimep.c: dtimep.c-lexed.
56 * Added scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD format files.
58 Mon Mar 13 21:32:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
60 * Applied Sullivan N. Beck <sbeck@cise.ufl.edu>'s mhshow-suffix patch:
62 With the patch below, you can add lines like:
64 mhshow-suffix-application/msword: .doc
65 mhshow-suffix-application/PostScript: .ps
67 to the mhn.defaults file to append the given suffix to a
68 scratch file. This allows applications which require a
69 certain suffix to run properly.
71 * Removed -force_html from lynx entry in mhn.defaults.sh (I
72 believe older versions of lynx lack that option) and added
73 "mhshow-suffix-text/html: .html".
75 * Modified username_extension masquerading to only use the
76 extended address on generated [Resent-]From: lines and SMTP
77 envelope From:. With Neil's original implementation, nmh's global
78 idea of the username was changed, which would result in inc lying
79 and saying you had no new mail because it was looking for a
80 mailbox called, for instance, "dan-nmh" (where username was "dan"
81 and $USERNAME_EXTENSION was "-nmh").
83 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtime.c patch:
85 There's a wrap-around problem that affects the implementation
86 of Zeller's congruence in dtime.c. This causes the day-of-week
87 calculations to fail for dates after Feb 29, 2000 (probably up
88 until some year far in the future).
90 Mon Mar 06 12:20:20 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
92 * Applied Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s msh.c patch:
94 I finally tracked down the problem in msh that was causing
95 errors whenever I tried to examine a 'mmdf' style mailbox.
97 It turns out that not enough memory was being allocated with
98 calloc(), causing memory pointers to be overwritten and
101 Fri Mar 03 16:07:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
103 * Changed the new "plussed_user" option to mts.conf's
104 "masquerade:" to "username_extension" after getting feedback from
105 qmail users, who use '-' as a separator rather than '+'. Removed
106 checking of $USERPLUS variable. Now check $USERNAME_EXTENSION,
107 which needs to include the appropriate separator for your MTA
108 ('-', '+', or whatever) as its first character.
110 Thu Mar 02 23:04:30 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
112 * Added a new "boolean" type to mh.h and TRUE and FALSE constants.
114 * Added a note to DIFFERENCES stating that it's out-of-date
115 (Richard was the last one to update it) and that we should
116 consider only documenting incompatibilities with MH there.
118 * Implemented (and documented) a third kind of username
119 masquerading: "plussed user" masquerading. This one was suggested
120 by Neil Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>. It's based on sendmail's
121 "plussed user" feature, where mail sent to <user>+<string> will be
122 delivered to <user>. When it's enabled, it's controlled by the
123 $USERPLUS environment variable. How is it enabled? Well, that
126 * Renamed the "mmailid:" setting in mts.conf to "masquerade:", and
127 changed it so that rather than being a boolean, it can be set to
128 any combination of the three values "draft_from", "mmailid", and
129 "plussed_user". Thus it is now possible to enable the three types
130 of masquerading individually.
132 * Fixed a bug with "mmailid" masquerading (dating back to MH?)
133 where if it was turned on, ','s would no longer be considered
134 GECOS field delimiters.
136 Wed Mar 01 23:30:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
138 * Changed the GECOS-field '&' translation behavior to be
139 controlled by the BSD42 #define rather than GCOS_HACK, since it's
140 apparently always appropriate on OSes where BSD42 is #defined, and
141 never appropriate on any other OSes. Thanks to Kimmo Suominen for
142 responding to my "What is this code here for?" comment in mts.c
143 and explaining the feature.
145 Mon Feb 28 21:50:29 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
147 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3+dev (ideally this should be
148 done by whoever makes a release tar file, immediately after doing
151 * Applied Paul Fox <pgf-spam@foxharp.boston.ma.us>'s scansbr.c
152 patch, posted to comp.mail.mh, which he says prevents loss of mail
153 when inc'ing into a full filesystem.
155 * Changed "echo > stamp-h.in" in Makefile.in to "date > stamp-h.in"
156 so that stamp-h.in will be different each time configure.in and
157 related files are changed, making it easier to check it in (which
158 is necessary to prevent unnecessary autoconf calls).
160 * My declaration of initgroups() in slocal.c to eliminate the "no
161 prototype" warning wasn't portable (FreeBSD 3.[23] choked). Now
162 use AC_EGREP_HEADER to see where initgroups() is declared, if
165 Sun Feb 20 12:17:15 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
167 * Fix security hole in mhshowsbr.c which allowed untrusted shell
170 * Released nmh 1.0.3.
172 Thu Feb 10 10:54:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
174 * Oops. %-escapes on mhstore lines in mhn.defaults.sh should not
175 be surrounded by single quotes, as a shell is not spawned when
176 just saving files, and the filenames will end up with literal
177 quotes embedded in them.
179 Fri Feb 04 12:29:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
181 * Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
182 got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
183 the -help output. I guess the idea was to make reference to the
184 fact that clearly you know about the -help option since you're
185 currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea to
186 overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
187 supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
188 allowed to specify. It doesn't make sense to show that you're
189 allowed to "abbreviate" the switch to its entire length.
191 Thu Feb 03 17:52:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
193 * Applied wesley.craig@umich.edu's KPOP patches. According to him:
195 The following patch fixes a problem with requesting a
196 service key for a machine that has multiple 'A' records. It
197 also makes "-kpop" a command line option, for users who
198 would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".
200 Did no testing of the new features, as I don't have access to a
203 * Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
205 * Modified INSTALL and config.h.in to reflect the new -kpop feature.
207 Fri Jan 28 17:39:24 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
209 * All %-escapes in mhn.defaults that actually expand to something
210 should be surrounded by single quotes. Added quotes to the ones
211 in mhn.defaults.sh that were missing them.
213 * Added check for lynx to write mhshow-show-text/html line in
216 Thu Jan 27 12:22:25 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
218 * makedir() had multiple bugs dating back to MH. It passed an
219 octal constant to atoi(), which interpreted it as decimal,
220 resulting in directories with no user read or execute permissions,
221 making nested directory creation fail. Also, when creating a
222 nested directory, correct permissions were only set on the inner one.
224 * A second `make install' would always fail because the check for
225 whether mh_profile.5 existed was written incorrectly.
227 Wed Jan 26 02:22:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
229 * Added documentation on both types of masquerading to post's man
232 Tue Jan 25 22:58:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
234 * Doug's portability fix of my setgid inc autodetection had a
235 caching bug -- if you re-ran configure, uip/Makefile would be
236 corrupted, and installation would bomb out on OSes where inc needs
239 * Implemented a new kind of email address masquerading. Usually,
240 when a user writes a custom "From:" header in a draft, nmh uses it
241 rather than generating one. However, the user's true address is
242 used in the SMTP envelope "From:" and is revealed in the "Sender:"
243 header. Now, when mmailid is set to non-zero, the envelope
244 "From:" uses the address specified in the draft "From:" header,
245 and there is no "Sender:" header. This is useful when sending on
246 behalf of a remote POP3 account or when remote mail robots
247 incorrectly use the envelope "From:" in preference to the body
248 "From:". This processing has only been implemented for post, not
249 for the undocumented spost (which was already missing some "From:"
250 processing that post has).
252 Mon Jan 24 22:26:06 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
254 * Got rid of the rest of the gcc -Wall warnings that I didn't have
255 time for on 1999-07-15 (and, it would seem, some new ones people
256 introduced since then). The primary ones were the warnings that
257 default prototypes were being used for [v]snprintf() and
258 str[n]casecmp(). As of right now, there are _no_ compilation
259 warnings except on dtimep.c-lexed (at least under AIX 4.1.5 and
262 Sun Jan 2 23:42:18 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
264 * Move mhtest from bindir to libdir.
266 * Move sendfiles from libdir to bindir.
268 * Updated sendfiles manpage to reflect this change.
270 * Added documentation for -build and -file switches to repl and
271 forw manpages (patch from Peter Maydell).
273 * Fixed interaction between specifying -cc in profile and -group on
276 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
278 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
279 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
280 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
283 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
285 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
286 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
287 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
288 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
289 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
290 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).
292 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
294 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
296 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
298 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
299 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
300 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
301 caught again. This works for now.
303 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
305 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
307 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
308 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
310 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
312 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
313 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
315 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
317 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
319 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
321 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
322 changes. Both need more cleanup.
324 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
326 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
327 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
328 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
329 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
330 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
333 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
335 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
336 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
337 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
339 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
340 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
343 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
345 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
346 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
347 to a directory on another device with more free space.
349 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
351 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
352 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
354 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
356 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
359 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
360 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
362 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
363 macros, regardless of platform.
365 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
366 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
368 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
369 with x-conversions=gzip.
371 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
373 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
376 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
377 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
378 implicit definition of ioctl().
380 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
381 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
382 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
383 want to mess with them.
385 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
387 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
388 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
390 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
391 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
393 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
394 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
395 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
397 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
398 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
399 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
401 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
404 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
407 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
408 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
411 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
412 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
415 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
416 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
420 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
422 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
423 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
424 preventing compilation on at least linux.
426 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
427 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
429 Thu Sep 9 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
431 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
433 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
434 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
435 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
436 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
438 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
439 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
441 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
443 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
445 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
447 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
448 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
450 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
452 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
453 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
455 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
456 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
457 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
458 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
460 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
461 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
463 Sat Jun 9 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
465 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
466 substitute it for mktemp if available.
468 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
470 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
471 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
474 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
476 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
478 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
480 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
481 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
483 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
484 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
485 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
487 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
488 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
489 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
491 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
492 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
493 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
495 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
496 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
499 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
500 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
502 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
503 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
505 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
508 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
509 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
510 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
512 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
513 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
515 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
516 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
517 <elleron@servtech.com>.
519 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
520 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
523 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
524 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
526 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
527 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
528 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
529 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
531 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
532 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
534 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
538 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
539 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
540 would not be changed.
542 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
543 one from the Apache web server.
545 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
546 (this should have been done a long time ago).
548 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
549 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
550 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
552 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
554 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
556 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
557 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
560 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
561 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
562 removes a bad race condition.
564 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
567 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
568 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
569 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
571 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
572 sequence information.
574 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
575 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
577 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
580 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
583 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
585 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
586 interpret 034 as octal.
588 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
590 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
591 mhstore, and mhbuild.
593 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
594 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
596 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
597 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
599 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
600 in the c_cefile structure when building.
602 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
603 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
605 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
606 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
607 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
609 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
610 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
611 and mhshow. Updated man pages
613 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
615 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
617 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
618 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
621 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
623 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
624 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
626 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
627 header field information.
629 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
630 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
632 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
633 values when parsing a content.
635 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
636 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
638 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
639 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
641 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
642 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
644 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
645 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
647 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
649 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
651 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
653 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
655 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
656 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
659 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
660 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
662 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
663 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
664 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
665 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
666 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
667 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
670 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
672 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
673 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
674 buffer length checks for this parameter.
676 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
677 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
679 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
681 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
682 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
683 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
684 of the limits on the length of command lines.
686 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
687 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
690 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
691 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
692 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
693 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
696 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
700 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
701 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
703 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
704 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
705 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
706 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
709 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
710 mhbuild returns an error.
712 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
713 rename the draft file.
715 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
716 use a global variable.
718 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
719 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
721 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
722 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
724 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
725 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
726 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
728 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
729 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
731 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
732 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
735 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
736 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
739 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
740 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
742 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
743 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
744 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
746 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
747 to new function output_content_folder.
749 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
750 new function output_content_file.
752 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
753 to new function parse_format_string.
755 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
756 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
757 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
758 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
760 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
761 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
762 message/external file from ftp.
764 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
765 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
766 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
768 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
769 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
772 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
775 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
776 new file mhstoresbr.c
778 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
781 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
782 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
784 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
785 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
787 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
788 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
789 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
791 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
793 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
795 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
796 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
799 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
800 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
802 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
805 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
807 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
811 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
812 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
813 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
814 is still the same (dashstuffing).
816 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
817 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
818 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
819 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
820 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
822 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
823 But it is not on by default.
825 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
826 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
828 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
830 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
832 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
834 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
836 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
837 number of the "cur" message when packing.
839 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
843 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
844 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
845 uses the original name of the library.
847 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
848 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
851 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
852 list_content and list_debug.
854 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
856 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
857 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.
859 1998-02-27 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
863 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
865 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
866 are given, that order doesn't matter.
868 * Fix bug in seq_list.c when realloc'ing for
871 1998-02-23 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
875 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
877 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
878 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan
879 content, decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary
880 string). I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
882 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
883 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
886 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
888 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
890 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
892 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
893 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
895 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
896 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.
898 * Add note to MACHINES file that on Linux, configure
899 doesn't find the functions sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
901 * Fix configuration for machines that don't have (or find)
902 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
904 1998-02-11 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
908 * Add a configure check for sigsetjmp. Add some conditional
909 #define's in h/signals.h in case it's not found.
911 * Added additional notes about -auto switch in mhn man page.
913 * Added note about MM_CHARSET environment variable to
914 mh-profile(5) man page.
916 * Fix signal problem in mhn.c (change setjmp/longjmp to
917 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp).
919 1998-02-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
921 * Released nmh-0.22-pre1.
923 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
924 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
926 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
928 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
929 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
930 entry point for parsing MIME files.
932 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
933 source message on the standard input.
935 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
937 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
938 rather than -rfc934mode.
940 * Fix mhbuild, so that Content-Description and RFC-822 comments
941 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
944 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
945 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).
947 * Restore HP specific code to zotnet/tws/lexstring.c. Apparently
950 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
954 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
955 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.
957 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what transfer
960 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what character set
961 to use for text contents.
963 * Removed old hpux specific code from zotnet/tws/lexstring.c
965 1998-02-02 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
967 * Released nmh-0.21-pre2.
969 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
971 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
972 header fields as per RFC-2047.
974 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
975 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
976 spaces between encoded word are.
978 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
980 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
981 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
983 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
984 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
985 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
987 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
989 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
990 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
992 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.
994 * Added support for %(decode) to fmtdump.c.
996 * check_charset() now accepts US-ASCII as a subset of any
997 ISO-8859-X character set.
999 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
1002 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
1003 permissions, not write permissions.
1005 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
1006 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
1008 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
1011 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1013 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
1015 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
1016 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
1018 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
1019 message contains valid character set.
1021 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
1022 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
1024 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
1025 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
1027 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
1028 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
1029 between an encoded word and normal text.
1031 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
1032 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
1034 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
1035 as a RFC-2047 header field.
1037 * The command install-mh now recognizes the switches -version
1040 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
1041 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
1044 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
1045 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
1047 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
1048 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
1050 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
1052 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1054 * Released nmh-0.20.
1056 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
1058 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.
1060 * Changed the default format file for mhl (mhl.format) to
1061 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
1062 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
1064 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
1065 and the To: line was missing.
1067 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
1069 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1071 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
1073 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
1074 watch the POP transaction.
1076 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
1077 first, and use it if available.
1079 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
1080 first, and use it if available.
1082 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1084 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
1086 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
1087 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
1088 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
1091 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
1092 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
1093 returns the state FLDPLUS.
1095 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
1096 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
1099 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
1101 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
1102 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
1104 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
1106 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
1107 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
1109 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
1110 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
1111 message to which you are replying.
1113 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
1114 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
1115 making group replies.
1117 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
1119 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1121 * Released nmh-0.19.
1123 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
1124 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
1126 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
1127 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
1128 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
1129 to the end of the man page.
1131 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
1132 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
1133 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
1134 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
1135 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
1136 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
1138 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
1141 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
1142 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
1143 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
1145 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
1146 the next available number above the message number you wish
1149 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
1150 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
1152 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
1153 file sbr/seq_print.c
1155 * flist will now update the current folder.
1157 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
1158 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
1159 but now undocumented.
1161 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
1164 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
1165 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
1167 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
1169 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
1170 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
1172 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1174 * Released nmh-0.18.
1176 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
1177 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
1178 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
1180 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
1181 retains the public/private status of sequences.
1183 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
1184 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
1185 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
1186 previous public/private status.
1188 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
1191 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
1194 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
1195 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
1196 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
1198 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
1199 take option to determine whether it should get current
1200 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
1201 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
1203 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
1205 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
1206 wait for stopped processes.
1208 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
1209 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
1211 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1213 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
1215 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
1216 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
1218 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
1219 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
1221 * Change the way that memory for message status is
1222 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
1223 the folder/message structure. This required changing
1224 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
1226 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
1229 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
1232 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
1234 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
1235 the debugging output.
1237 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
1238 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
1240 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1242 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
1244 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
1245 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
1247 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
1249 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
1250 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
1251 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
1252 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
1253 in the given sequence.
1255 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
1256 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
1257 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
1258 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
1259 subdirectories of a given directory.
1261 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
1262 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
1263 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
1265 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
1266 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
1268 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
1270 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
1273 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
1274 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
1275 fields are now calculated at runtime.
1277 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
1278 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
1279 are calculated at runtime.
1281 Sun Nov 30 19:14:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

1285 * Add paragraph to man page for install-mh and to INSTALL file
1286 about checking for global mh.profile.
1288 * Renamed m_find() to context_find().
1289 Renamed m_replace() to context_replace().
1290 Renamed m_delete() to context_del().
1291 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
1292 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
1293 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
1295 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
1296 adding message to folder itself.
1298 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
1299 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
1300 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
1303 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
1304 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
1307 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
1308 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
1309 is the same as the direct smtp code).
1311 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
1312 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
1314 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
1315 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
1316 code to use it yet).
1318 Thu Nov 13 18:42:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1320 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.
1322 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never
1323 called with a value larger than 30 mintues.

1326 context is updated before external rmmproc is called.
1328 * Removed all the OVERHEAD code.
1330 * Move code to add message to folder from refile.c
1333 Fri Jul 25 19:39:29 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

1346 * Removed all the TTYD (terminal access daemon) code
1348 * Removed all the MF (uucp filtering) code.
1350 * Removed all the code for BERK.
1352 * Removed all the code for stand-alone delivery (MHMTS).

1355 smtp.c. Changed the name of the directory to mts/smtp.
1357 * Changed autoconf to use @sysconfdir@ for location of
1358 configuration files.
1360 * Changed #define in mhn.c from FTP to BUILTIN_FTP.

1366 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
1368 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
1369 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
1371 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
1374 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
1375 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
1377 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
1378 number of refiled message.
1380 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
1382 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
1383 for return value of wait().
1385 * Change configure to also check /bin for "more".
1387 Sat Jul 12 00:02:23 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1389 * Released nmh-0.16.
1391 Mon Jun 23 20:13:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1393 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
1395 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
1396 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
1397 deal with binary messages, yet).
1399 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
1401 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
1403 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
1404 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
1405 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
1406 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
1407 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
1408 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
1410 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
1411 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
1413 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
1414 From MH-6.8.4 patch.
1416 * Fix double free of ctinfo in user_content when using
1417 #forw with single message. From John MacMillan (and
1420 * Changed -mhnproc switch for show, to -showmimeproc.
1422 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".
1424 * Added "mime" option to "whatnow", which calls the program
1425 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
1428 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
1431 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
1433 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
1434 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
1435 which used unsigned chars by default.
1437 Sat Jun 21 01:21:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1439 * Released nmh-0.15.
1441 * Added new form "scan.unseen" to distribution. It marks messages

1446 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
1448 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
1451 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
1452 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
1453 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
1455 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
1456 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
1458 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
1460 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
1461 they conflict with defines on AIX.
1463 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
1464 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
1465 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
1466 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
1468 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
1469 and put in own subroutine.
1471 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
1472 and put in own subroutine.
1474 * Moved code to remove messages from folder into own
1475 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and
1476 refile.c to use new routine.
1478 Fri May 16 06:09:31 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1480 * Renamed m_seqok to seq_nameok.
1482 * Changed m_setunseen, msh, mshcmds, flist, and scan to use
1485 * Changed m_seqflag to return the number of a sequence rather
1486 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
1487 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
1489 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
1492 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before
1493 adding message to sequence.
1495 * Renamed function m_setvis to m_setunseen, and renamed
1496 corresponding file in sbr.
1498 * Renamed function m_setseq to m_setprev, and renamed corresponding
1501 * Changed mark.c and pick.c to use m_seqaddsel and m_seqdelsel.
1503 * Added new function m_seqdelsel to m_seqdel.c, which deletes
1504 all selected messages from a sequence.
1506 * Added new function m_seqaddsel to m_seqadd.c, which adds all
1507 selected messages to a sequence.
1509 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,
1512 Thu May 15 00:53:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1514 * Renamed function pack_folder to m_packfolder, and moved it
1515 from uip/folder.c into its own file sbr/m_packfolder.c
1517 Wed May 14 23:38:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1519 * Changed function m_gmsg to m_readfolder. Renamed file

1536 * Added new options `-checkmime', `-nocheckmime', and `-mhnproc'
1537 to show. Restructured code to handle options to various
1538 `procs' better. Deprecated `-noshowproc' option and NOMHNPROC
1539 environment variable.
1541 * Added new man page `mh-draft' which documents the
1542 draft folder facility in nmh.
1544 * Renamed fmtsbr.h to fmt_scan.h. Renamed fmtcompile.h

1556 * Released nmh-0.13.
1558 * Changed mhpath so it doesn't abort if a message sequence
1559 such as "mhpath all" expands to more than 1000 messages.
1560 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
1561 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
1564 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
1565 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
1567 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1569 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if
1570 necessary. So `folders' can now handle more than 300 folders.
1572 Tue Apr 22 14:01:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1574 * Change configure to use a compile check to see if the tm struct
1575 has tm_gmtoff, rather than using egrep.

1588 `procs' (mhlproc, showproc, lproc, etc...).
1590 * Replace the bit twiddling for SELECTED, UNSEEN, and
1591 mp->attrstats with macros.
1593 * If system doesn't have SIGEMT (like Linux), then use SIGTERM
1596 * Change fstat to stat in m_gmsg.c since Linux wants
1599 * Merge Linux patch sent in by Michel Oosterhof (original
1600 patch from bsa@kf8nh.wariat.org).
1602 * Document an undocumented MH feature. mhn -form mhl.null
1603 will suppress the display of the message header.
1605 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
1607 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c
1608 and mshcmds.c, rather than hard coding in /bin/cat.
1610 * Add mhnproc to the list of `procs' in mh-profile.man.
1612 * Add configure test for lorder and tsort commands.
1614 * Commented out the padding in the `msgs` struct in h/mh.h
1616 * Change m_gmsg.c to allocate elements to the `info' array by
1617 500 elements at a time (rather than MAXFOLDERS / 5).
1619 * Add note to man page for mhmail that zero length messages are
1620 not sent. Need to use -body "" to send empty messages.
1622 * zotnet/mts/mts.c : compare character with '\0', not NULL.
1624 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
1626 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
1627 folder/message structure when done with folder.
1629 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is
1630 defined even if message is missing "From " line.
1632 Mon Mar 31 03:37:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1634 * Released nmh-0.10.
1636 Sun Mar 30 21:46:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

1641 Thu Mar 20 03:21:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1643 * Reversed previous decision to retain "From " lines in slocal.
1644 The "From " line is now removed from all messages.
1646 * inc now saves the date from the "From " envelope in the
1647 Delivery-Date header for all messages.
1649 * sbr/m_getfld.c: Clean up processing of Return-Path and
1650 Delivery-Date from the "From " envelope.
1652 Mon Mar 17 19:03:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1654 * client.c: cast iaddr to int before comparing return value
1655 of inet_addr with NOTOK.
1657 Tue Mar 11 04:38:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1659 * Grep test for signal names was failing on some OS'es because
1660 of missing tabs in regex.
1662 Sat Mar 8 01:58:22 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1664 * Released nmh-0.09.
1666 * Move config files and format files to *.old before installing.
1668 * Add configure check for killpg.

1677 * Added `-mime' and `-nomime' options to `repl'.
1680 Tue Mar 4 03:10:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1682 * ruserpass.c : removed conflicting prototypes.
1684 * rcvtty.c : Fixed rcvtty to obey terminal permissions granted
1685 by `mesg' command. Previously only worked on BSD machines.
1687 Mon Mar 3 00:18:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1689 * rcvtty.c : Changed to use #define UTMP_FILE (if exists) rather
1690 than hard coded "/etc/utmp".
1692 * Released nmh-0.08.
1694 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
1695 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of
1696 locking database itself.
1698 Thu Feb 27 05:28:09 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1700 * Added slocal action `mmdf' to deliver to a file in mmdf format.
1702 * Changed the slocal actions `file' and `>' to always deliver in
1703 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
1706 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
1707 rather than mmdf format.
1709 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
1710 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
1711 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
1712 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
1714 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
1716 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1718 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
1721 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
1722 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
1723 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
1725 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
1726 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
1727 rcvpack so you can choose the preferred format.
1729 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1731 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
1732 can still easily change this in config.h).
1734 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
1735 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
1736 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
1738 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1740 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather
1741 than tzset and external timezone variable.
1743 Thu Feb 13 00:35:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1745 * Fixed typo in ruserpass.c in the variable toktabs.
1747 * When ruserpass was added to LIBOBJS, it was missing
1750 * Released nmh-0.07.
1752 Tue Feb 11 01:29:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1754 * Add check to configure, so that if ruserpass, or _ruserpass
1755 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
1757 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
1758 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
1761 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
1762 built-in FTP client in mhn.
1764 * Added configure check for ushort and ulong. Change code
1765 to use ushort/ulong rather than u_short/u_long.
1767 * A couple of small cleanups in locking code.
1769 * Added configure check for gmtoff element in struct tm.
1771 * Added configure check for tzset.
1773 Fri Feb 7 03:01:57 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1775 * Released nmh-0.06.
1777 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
1778 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
1780 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
1781 many such machines around anymore.
1783 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
1784 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
1786 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
1787 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
1789 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1791 * Check lex generated file in zotnet/tws and use
1792 pre-generated version if necessary.
1794 * Released nmh-0.05.
1796 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
1797 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
1798 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
1799 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
1801 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
1802 be linked in one pass.
1804 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1806 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
1807 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
1809 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1811 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
1813 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1815 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
1816 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
1817 become the current folder.
1819 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1821 * Released nmh-0.04.
1823 * Define ospeed and PC in termsbr.c is OS doesn't have
1826 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1828 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
1829 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
1830 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
1832 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1834 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
1835 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
1837 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1839 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
1840 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
1843 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
1844 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
1846 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1848 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
1849 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
1850 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
1851 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
1852 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
1853 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
1855 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1857 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
1858 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
1860 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
1861 a file (currently need to specify full path).
1863 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

1868 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1870 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
1871 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
1872 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
1874 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1876 * Released nmh-0.03.
1878 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
1879 .mh_sequence file existed.
1881 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
1882 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
1884 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
1885 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
1888 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

1895 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
1896 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
1897 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
1899 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1901 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
1902 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
1903 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
1905 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

1941 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
1942 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path

1946 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1948 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
1950 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with
1951 macro defined on Solaris.
1953 Thu Dec 26 02:50:15 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1955 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
1956 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
1958 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
1959 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
1960 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
1961 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
1964 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1966 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
1967 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.

1981 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
1982 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
1984 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1986 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
1987 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
1988 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
1989 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
1990 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
1991 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
1993 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1995 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
1997 * Released nmh-0.01.
1999 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
2000 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
2001 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
2004 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2006 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
2009 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

2012 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
2014 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2016 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
2017 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
2018 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
2019 script to find_program.
2021 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2023 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
2024 speed up -recurse option.
2026 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
2027 yet, but it compiles :-)
2029 * Changed default location for install to
2030 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
2031 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
2032 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
2035 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
2036 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
2037 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
