1 2006-02-20 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
3 * h/mh.h, h/prototypes.h, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, uip/send.c,
4 uip/sendsbr.c, uip/viamail.c, uip/whatnowsbr.c, man/send.man:
5 added -attachformat switch to send, to support alternate MIME
6 header contents when using -attach. See send man page for
9 * man/mhbuild.man: wrapped one appearance of "Content-Disposition"
10 with quotes, to be consistent with others.
12 2006-02-20 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
14 * h/utils.h, sbr/utils.c, uip/flist.c, uip/folder.c: Move duplicate
15 function num_digits into utils.c
17 2006-02-19 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
19 * sbr/m_draft.c, sbr/utils.c, uip/folder.c, uip/inc.c,
20 uip/mhstoresbr.c, uip/popi.c, uip/refile.c: Add create_folder()
21 function, replacing duplicate code during folder creation.
23 2006-02-18 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
25 * h/mime.h, h/mhparse.h, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, uip/mhfree.c,
26 man/mhbuild.man, docs/TODO: added support for an optional
27 Content-Disposition header in mhbuild (only). Its contents
28 are supplied between {}, positioned after the optional [], in
29 a mhbuild directive. If the contents do not contain a
30 "filename=" parameter, and the directive has a filename, or
31 something else that ends with "name=", then that will be used
32 to add a "filename=" parameter to the header.
34 2006-02-12 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
36 * docs/TODO: added RFC2183 to reference of RFC1806 for
37 Content-Disposition header.
39 2006-01-31 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
41 * uip/mhbuild.c, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, man/mhbuild.man: added
42 -nocontentid switch, to disable generation of Content-ID:
43 header in MIME messages. (Also added -contentid for
44 symmetry.) The default configuration of Microsoft Outlook,
45 Build 10.0.3416 in particular, doesn't see attachments in
46 incoming messages if there are Content-ID headers, see
47 http://home.cwru.edu/~wrv/eudoraoutlookfix.html. This allows
48 users to easily accomodate that by adding
49 mhbuild: -nocontentid to their .mh_profile.
51 2006-01-29 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
53 * bug 4360: uip/replsbr.c: remove trailing newlines from components
54 to fix bug with spaces at the end of Subject/References in replies
56 2006-01-18 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
58 * configure.in: use AS_HELP_STRING for formatting help messages
60 * configure.in, sbr/fmt_scan.c: add autoconf magic to support
61 old systems that don't support multibyte character sets
63 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: fix bug with insertion of newline being wrong if
64 the num function was used at the end of the format buffer
66 2006-01-17 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
68 * uip/post.c, uip/spost.c: in make_bcc_file (), use same
69 logic as in finish_headers () to detect whether there is an
70 existing From: line in the draft. If draft_from masquerade
71 flag is enabled, this allows the From: to be obeyed in the
72 Bcc, instead of the old behavior of always replacing it with
75 2006-01-17 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
77 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: more robust multi-byte/column support for field
78 widths, restoring right justification feature
80 2006-01-16 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
82 * h/aliasbr.h, h/rcvmail.h, man/Makefile.in, man/slocal.man,
83 sbr/lock_file.c, uip/aliasbr.c, uip/dropsbr.c, uip/post.c,
84 uip/slocal.c, man/mh-mts.man: remove remnants of code for MMDF
86 * uip/scansbr.c: multiply buffer size by MB_CUR_MAX so multi-byte
89 2006-01-14 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
91 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: Turn the PUTSF macro into a function capable of
92 handling multi column characters.
94 2006-01-07 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
96 * Remove sbr/strerror.c -- strerror(3) is defined in C89.
98 2006-01-06 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
100 * patch #3968: Move the add() function from its own file (add.c) and
101 into utils.c. There was also a duplicate add() function in mf.c which
104 2006-01-02 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
106 * Remove sbr/pwd.c file, moving the pwd() function into sbr/utils.c.
108 2006-01-01 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
110 * patch #3967: Create a mh_xrealloc function to prevent mistakes when
113 2006-01-01 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
115 * patch #3966: Create a mh_xmalloc function to prevent mistakes when
118 2005-12-24 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
120 * Bug #15285: Don't use $< in target rules in makefiles, as POSIX
121 says it's only defined in inference rules. (BSD make was expanding
122 $< to the empty string in the rule for building sbr/dtimep.c, which
123 causes lex to apparently hang because it's reading from stdin.)
125 2005-12-24 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
127 * Completely redo db library checking -- we now check for working
128 (include file, library) pairs rather than checking for headers and
129 libraries separately. We also now provide --with-ndbm=lib and
130 --with-ndbmheader=header options to configure to handle situations
131 where configure's autodetection fails.
133 2005-12-21 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
135 * Fix stupid accidental dependence on a bash quirk in previous
136 configure script change.
138 2005-12-15 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
140 * Improve checking for Berkeley db libraries: configure should now
141 find a suitable library on systems with new gdbm where
142 compatibility functions are in the gdbm_compat library, and on
145 2005-12-13 Michael Forrest <mef@computer.org>
147 * Fedora Bug #163760: sbr/context_read.c (context_read): Ensure that
148 the context is only read once.
150 2005-12-12 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
152 * uip/sendsbr.c (annoaux): Fix the call to annotate() fixing a bug
153 which prevented repl from properly annotating messages.
155 2005-12-07 Jon Steinhart <nmh@fourwinds.com>
157 * Fixed a bug where anno -append put the headers in the wrong place
158 if applied to a message that didn't contain any headers.
160 * Added a special value of "all" to the -number option that causes
161 anno -delete to delete all matching components instead of just
164 * Added new -preserve and -nopreserve options. Using -preserve
165 retains the original last accessed and last modified times on
168 2005-12-05 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
170 * Fedora Bug #174983: configure.in: Fix the AC_PATH_PROG default when
171 vi isn't found during build.
173 2005-11-19 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
175 * bug #14977: sbr/context_read.c: special case an MHCONTEXT of
176 "/dev/null" and don't try to lock it.
178 * bug #9228, debian bug #146449: man/mh-profile.man: make it clearer
179 that lower case environment variables (and in particular mheditor)
180 are internal to nmh and not intended to be set by the user.
182 2005-11-09 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
184 * sbr/mf.c: fix buffer overrun with absurdly long addresses
185 (only causes crashes if scan is run with '-width 16536' or similar)
187 * bug #7917: sbr/context_foil.c, sbr/context_read.c,
188 sbr/context_save.c: mark 'no context' with NULL rather than
189 "/dev/null" so we don't inadvertently try to lock /dev/null (which
190 takes up to a minute in some locking configurations and makes post
193 * patch #3913: uip/post.c: pass some globals into sm_init() so that
194 it uses SASL if necessary. (This bug was preventing Bcc'd emails
195 from being sent via SASL authenticated SMTP.)
197 * bug #9813: uip/rmf.c: don't crash if there's no Current-Folder
198 entry in the context file.
200 2005-11-13 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
202 * bug #7833: uip/Makefile.in: remove link to install-mh that caused
203 problems on some systems
205 * bug #739: Makefile.in: install target now depends on all to avoid
206 problem on case-insensitive file systems with the INSTALL file
208 2005-11-10 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
210 * Fedora Bug #172838: configure.in: Fix the AC_PATH_PROG default when
211 sendmail isn't found during build.
213 2005-11-09 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
215 * h/aliasbr.h: fix a non-ANSI prototype.
217 2005-11-08 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
219 * Simon Burge: acconfig.h, configure.in, uip/rcvtty.c, uip/slocal.c:
220 fix to handle getutent() on NetBSD
222 * INSTALL, README, docs/README.about, man/nmh.man: update most
223 references to the web page and mailing list locations
225 * bug #10230: etc/Makefile.in, man/Makefile.in, uip/Makefile.in:
226 Michael De La Rue: prepend DESTDIR to install locations
228 * configure.in, */Makefile.in, mts/smtp/smtp.c: replace obsolete
231 2005-11-06 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
233 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, sbr/fmt_scan.c, h/prototypes.h: fix various
234 possible overruns of the buffers in fmt_scan() which would cause
235 crashes if scan was run with '-width 16536' or similar.
237 * uip/popsbr.c: fix compile error which only showed up if nmh
238 was configured with --enable-apop.
240 * Debian Bug# 245932, RedHat Bug# 172388: uip/mhparse.c: don't
241 crash when handling a multipart MIME message with an invalid
242 Content-Type header (file handle was being fclose()d twice).
244 * sbr/Makefile.in: adjust lex command to work on both old and
245 new versions of flex.
247 * configure.in: add an AC_PREREQ() so autoconf 2.13 gives a helpful
248 error message and the Debian autoconf-version-guessing wrapper
249 doesn't guess wrongly.
251 2005-11-02 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
253 * Debian Bug# 320069: Nick Rusnov: uip/popsbr.c: fail when
254 kpop connection attempted without KPOP support compiled in
256 * Debian Bug# 320090: Nick Rusnov: sbr/Makefile.in: fix for newer
257 version of flex and remove autogenerated file from cvs
259 * patch #1155: uip/flist.c: speed up flist by skipping stat on
260 files with numbers as names
262 * docs/Makefile.in: include new files in distribution
264 2005-10-11 Bill Wohler <wohler@newt.com>
266 * docs/FAQ: fold questions into MH FAQ and distribute that instead
268 2005-10-05 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
270 * Harald Geyer: h/mh.h, uip/replsbr.c: back out previous change
271 (fork/vfork) and replace with code that handles the issue directly
273 2005-05-18 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
275 * Debian Bug# 143485: Nick Rusnov: h/mh.h: use fork instead of
278 * Debian Bug# 261592: Harald Geyer: uip/mhlsbr.c, uip/replsbr.c:
279 test/report error writing to stdout
281 * mts/smtp/smtp.c, uip/popsbr.c: correct SASL include file locations
283 * docs/COMPLETION-BASH: bash completion definitions from Debian
285 * patch #2863: savannah@brisammon.fastmail.fm: sbr/folder_read.c:
286 fix a bug affecting AFS where nmh was setting the READONLY flag
287 for a folder even when you do have write access to the folder
289 * Carl Mummert: h/fmt_compile.h, man/mh-format.man,
290 sbr/fmt_compile.c, sbr/fmt_scan.c: add unquote() function for
291 removing quotes from RFC-2822 encoded headers
293 2005-02-23 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
295 * use iconv to convert RFC-2047 encoded headers to the
296 character set used by the current locale
298 * sbr/folder_read.c fix Debian bug #202667: crash when a
299 message's filename overflows an int when converted
301 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
302 versions (from automake 1.9.5)
304 2005-02-21 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
306 * sbr/getpass.c fix bug where inc crashed on failing to reopen
309 2005-01-27 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
311 * Added -proxy option to inc and msgchk. Based on old patch
312 from Michael Richardson.
314 * On systems where it is available, use nl_langinfo to get the
315 character set if MM_CHARSET is unset
317 2005-01-21 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
319 * sbr/check_charset.c US-ASCII is a subset of UTF-8 so can be
320 handled directly when UTF-8 is being used
322 2004-12-17 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
324 * uip/mhmisc.c Fix -part option to mhshow/mhlist/mhstore to
325 find sub-parts of the specified part
327 2004-11-19 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
329 * h/prototypes.h, sbr/folder_addmsg.c, uip/mhstoresbr.c,
330 uip/rcvstore.c, uip/refile.c: Added mail directory argument to
331 folder_addmsg in order to make it possible to provide a path to
332 the ext_hook call that is mailpath-based. A problem existed when
333 a folder was a symbolic link and the pwd call would return the
334 path relative to the filesystem, not to mailpath. A new argument
335 was needed because there was otherwise no reasonable way to get
338 2004-11-16 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
340 * sbr/folder_pack.c: Fixed problem where the refile hook was being
341 called after a message was renamed so that it wasn't around for
342 the hook. The hook is now called before the message file is
345 * sbr/folder_addmsg.c: Fixed wrong directory for hook when
346 refiling with -src option.
348 2004-10-15 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
350 * uip/sortm.c: Fixed calling of external hooks.
352 2004-10-12 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
354 * uip/inc.c: Fixed another weird bug caused by the static
355 mailpath being overwritten.
357 * uip/sendsbr.c: Fixed bug that caused anno to mangle headers.
359 * sbr/lock_file.c: Fixed strange bug that prevented a lock from
360 ever being obtained if getting it failed the first time. The
361 problem was that the string of XXXXXX that is required by
362 mkstemp() was overwritten the first time through, and so all
363 subsequent times failed because mkstemp() failed. The fix
364 reinitializes the tmp file string.
366 * uip/inc.c: Fixed bug in which the static maildir was overwritted
367 if a format string was read from the profile.
369 * sbr/folder_delmsgs.c: Fixed bug that was producing an incorrect
370 path for the external hook.
372 2003-10-06 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
374 * uip/slocal.c, configure.in: db configuration fix for Debian; yet
375 another location for ndbm.
377 2003-09-30 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
379 * Fix 'pick' so handling of options "-list" and "-seq" are
381 * Fix 'inc' realloc error when bringing in more than 100 msgs
383 * Patches submitted by Nick Rusnov from Debian archive applied:
386 136976 - Handle binary content messages
387 143427 - mh-format.man typo
388 144098 - 'spost; should have same behavior as 'post'
389 w.r.t. mts.conf masquerade line
390 149745 - slocal ignores 'N' result of previous command
391 152728 - increase SMTP timeouts to conform to RFC 1123
392 The timeouts suggested by the RFC seem long
393 to me - but the RFC is still listed as active.
394 181867 - typo for nmh.man
396 2003-08-10 Jeffrey C Honig <jch@honig.net>
398 * Fix problem where parsing of address/date fields in fmt_compile
399 is optimized to the first instance. The first instance may be in
400 contitional code which will result in cached data to
401 be used. Instead, convert c_flags to a flags field from a boolean
402 and parse on the first use.
403 * Remove some unused flag bits.
405 Fri Jul 01 22:02:00 2003 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
407 * Applied fixes for configuration problems with Solaris and
408 systems with gdbm instead of db1 (includes bug #2024)
410 #578 - repl leaks umask
411 #1393 - sortm core dumps
412 #1650 - msh leaks file descriptors
413 #1730 - Double free() in mhfree.c:free_encoding()
414 #3356 - In-Reply-To header in default replcomps should be
416 * Revised man page for mh-format (bug #2031)
417 * New replcomps, etc, with Fcc: +outbox in default versions
419 Sat Mar 17 03:18:15 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
421 * Ken Hornstein's configure.in Cyrus SASL checks were doing
422 `x"$with_cyrus_sasl" != "no"' instead of `... != x"no"'.
424 Tue Mar 06 21:04:27 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
426 * Found some historical information about MH in RFC 808.
427 Supplemented it with info from Jerry Peek's MH book and added it
428 to docs/README.about.
430 Tue Feb 6 20:35:40 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
432 * sbr/dtime.c Use the same Y2K correction code as dtimep.lex
434 * sbr/dtimep.lex Restrict the parser to accept either
435 a numerical timezone offset, or a symbolic one (e.g. EST),
436 but not both (Since "2000 -400 EDT" might cause a double
437 subtraction of 60 minutes if both are parsed. One should be
440 Mon Feb 05 20:22:54 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
442 * -L isn't sufficient for specifying the path of the Cyrus SASL
443 shared library. That'll allow us to link successfully, but on
444 many/most OSes that won't allow us to find libsasl at runtime. On
445 Solaris, we need to specify the library path with -R as well (or
446 else the user will have to use the $LD_LIBRARY_PATH kludge, which
447 is considered harmful). This fix should be extended to other OSes
450 * Print whether we have SASL support in the "nmh configuration"
451 summary configure prints out.
453 * Say in README.developers to use `\date' in case anyone is like
454 me and has `date' aliased in their shell to use a nonstandard (but
455 subjectively more readable) format.
457 Thu Jan 25 21:15:52 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
459 * man/mh-chart.man has updated synposes of
462 Tue Jan 23 20:26:15 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
464 * etc/digestcomps tried to force dates into a
465 19xx when it's not necessary.
467 Fri Jan 19 21:22:08 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
469 * First round of manpage updates finished. They
470 are standardized on -man macros, with minimal
473 * man/tmac.h.in is no longer needed, since the
474 manpages do not depend on them anymore. Note:
475 strict "man" programs that didn't allow ".so"
476 sourcing outside the man tree will now format
477 the man pages correctly.
479 * man/vmh.1 is no longer built, since uip/vmh isn't
481 Tue Jan 9 6:01:22 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
483 * Finished manpages ali-prev
485 * Removed deprecated files from the repository.
486 Specifically, those rooted in zotnet/ and mts/sendmail
487 mts/mmdf. "cvs update -dP" will give a pruned directory
490 * Updated docs/Makefile.in to include README.manpages, and
491 uip/Makefile.in to include popi.c (which isn't being built,
492 though). This allows "make nmhdist" to create an archive that
493 is file-for-file identical to the current cvs repository.
495 Sun Dec 31 20:48:50 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
497 * Create docs/README.manpages, which details
498 the formatting rules I've been using.
502 Sat Dec 30 9:50:13 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
504 * Created a new file "DATE" to hold the date
505 of the most recent nmh release. This date will be
506 used in the manpages.
508 * Updated docs/README.developers to add the step
509 of updating DATE. Also, updated configure to
510 read in the contents of the file as the variable
513 * Started work on updating man pages, with only
514 ali finished so far. Changes: 1) no dependence
515 on an external macro file, 2) uses only
516 -man macros (although I may be mistaken in this),
517 3) syntax in the SYNOPSIS is a little more
518 in line with standard UNIX documentation, such as
519 bold flags and italicized parameters.
521 Sun Dec 24 10:06:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
523 * Updated INSTALL with information about the
524 --with-locking option.
526 * Fixed the Hesiod tests in configure.in. In
527 systems where res_send was in -lresolv, this
528 information was not being communicated to the
529 HESIOD_LIBS var. Now, if res_send is not found
530 in the default libraries, it's assumed to be
531 in -lresolv, and thus -lresolv is appended to
532 HESIOD_LIBS, which will need that to avoid
533 undefined symbols problems.
535 * Fixed the Kerberos tests in configure.in. New
536 versions of Kerberos 5 have renamed -lcrypto
537 to -lk5crypto (circa krb5 1.1 or thereabouts). The
538 new test tries to determine if -lk5crypto exists. If so,
539 this is a new krb5 system. If not, test for -lcrypto
540 and the rest of old krb5. If that fails, look
541 for a genuine krb4 installation.
543 Fri Dec 22 22:08:51 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
545 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in msgchk.man.
546 -snoop was documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
548 Fri Dec 22 23:42:16 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
550 * Made a new ./configure option called
551 "--with-locking" that allows the file
552 locking mechanism to be chosen there instead of
553 requiring a manual edit of config.h.
555 * If the option is not explicitly set, or an
556 invalid option is specified, "dot" locking is
557 chosen. Valid options are "dot", "fcntl",
558 "flock", and "lockf". We need a way to tell
559 the user that these are the valid options, and
560 change the flag "--with-locking" if it's not
563 Fri Dec 22 19:21:29 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
565 * Remove the lex-specific memory hints at the
566 beginning of sbr/dtimep.lex. We've already
567 committed to supporting flex only, since
568 lex does not easily allow us to parse a single
569 string, as well as other problems documented
570 below and on nmh-workers.
572 * Added a switch statement to configure.in to
573 test for Mac OS X. If this is the case, LDFLAGS
574 should not contain "-s" since the linker rejects
577 * Updated MACHINES to include Mac OS X Public Beta,
578 as well as Linux 2.4 running glibc 2.2.
580 Wed Dec 20 16:00:46 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
582 * Marked deprecated directories in docs/README.developers
583 as deprecated, with pointers to the new code location.
584 Eventually these deprecated directories should go away.
586 Tue Dec 19 19:16:37 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
588 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in inc.man. -snoop was
589 documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
591 Thu Dec 14 14:32:09 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
593 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
594 versions on ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/config, dated
595 12-07-00. This should prevent configure from failing
596 on newer operating systems because config.{guess,sub}
597 couldn't correctly identify them.
599 Thu Dec 14 1:30:44 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
601 * Fixed the circular dependency created when I moved
602 zotnet/mts to mts/generic and merged them into libmts.
603 mts/generic/client.c and mts/generic/mts.c are now in sbr/
604 (and thus in libmh), which makes libmh self-contained and
605 not depending on an external archive.
607 * All include statements now look for mts.h in h/. The
608 Makefiles and configure script have been modified so that
609 mts/generic is no longer built.
611 Mon Dec 11 22:08:07 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
613 * When Shantonu made the new libmts.a, he swapped $(MTSLIB) and
614 libmh.a in sbr/Makefile.in so that libmh.a comes first, but this
615 causes the build to fail on Solaris, because libmts.a has to get
616 ruserpass() out of libmh.a. Swapping them back to the way Ken
617 Hornstein's patch (which I applied on Jul 20) put them, with
618 libmh.a correctly coming second. If there are times when libmts.a
619 needs to come second, then it would appear there's a circular
620 dependency and someone (Shantonu?) did an mts merge incorrectly.
622 Fri Sep 8 01:36:23 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
624 * Took out bad time textual time zones like BST and JST.
625 I found them online somewhere, but am not sure if they're
628 Fri Sep 8 00:36:48 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
630 * Moved zotnet/mts to mts/generic. This code reorganization
631 makes the entire zotnet tree deprecated -- bboards is unneeded,
632 mf was was moved to sbr, tws was rewritten and moved to sbr, and
635 * Created a new static library called libmts.a used during
636 compilation which includes the generic mts code and the
637 smtp/sendmail code. This supercedes the functionality of the
638 old libsmtp.a and the remains of libzot.a.
640 * Updated header includes to reference the new location of mts.h
641 in mts/generic/mts.h. Also, update the configure and top-level
642 Makefile not to descend into zotnet. Also, they don't descend
643 into mts/mmdf and mts/sendmail (the sendmail code has been
644 merged into the smtp code).
646 * Added #include <h/nmh.h> to h/md5.h, since my compile was
647 complaining about implicitly-declared memcpy and memset, which
648 appear to be in strings.h. In any event, nmh.h should take care
651 * When doing a "make nmhdist", notice that the generated
652 snapshot does not include zotnet of the mts directories as noted
653 above. Since they are no longer compiled, and I don't see any
654 obvious code path to get to them, end-users should probably
655 not need them. If you think otherwise, turn Makefile generation
656 back on in configure.in and turn on recursion into those dirs
657 in the appropriate Makefile.in
659 Wed Sep 6 22:40:03 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
661 * Tracked down the problem in the new dtimep where time
662 zones were being radically misreported. It was because the
663 parser knew about military time zones (such as M or E) but in
664 some cases did not know about the textual representation of
665 some zones (like MET). When it encountered one of these, the
666 date parser misread MET as the military time zone T (well, first
667 zone M, then E, and finally T). I took military zones out, and
668 things seem much better. Also, the default behavior of parsing
669 time zones appears to default to GMT in the absence of better
670 info, which is less bogus than assuming the mail came from the
671 current time zone, which was the behavior in 1.04.
673 Thu Aug 10 13:22:13 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
675 * Decided that limiting the message number columns to 3 on my
676 scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD (to try to regain space taken by
677 extra date info) was ill-conceived. It's not that tough to get
678 past 999 messages, though I imagine it's rather rare to exceed
679 9999. Changed these to 4. Also put the "replied / encrypted"
680 column back in YYYYMMDD -- I've never seen it show anything but a
681 space, but that space is useful if you use scan, grep, and awk
682 (with the default field separator) to grab message numbers (I know
683 -- pick should really be used for these purposes...).
685 Mon Aug 7 20:11:09 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
687 * Modify umask set by mhshow to enable user execute bit, so that
688 viewers that create temporary directories (e.g., lynx) will be
691 Thu Aug 03 17:14:08 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
693 * TODO: Allow multiple simultaneous differing contexts, probably
694 each tied to a parent (terminal) process.
696 Tue Aug 1 10:48:05 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
698 * Makefile install rules should not look for generated files in
699 the source tree -- this will happen to work when configuring and
700 building inside the source tree but will fail when using an
701 external build tree. Fixed etc/Makefile.in.
703 Mon Jul 24 16:20:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
705 * When Shantonu wrote the new, more portable dtimep.lex, he left
706 out the #ifdef DSTXXX stuff for some reason. Not a good idea, as
707 that code is required for proper printing of numeric-offset
708 timezones that have daylight saving time. Without that code,
709 -0700 during DST gets printed as MST instead of PDT.
711 * Renamed DSTXXX as ADJUST_NUMERIC_ONLY_TZ_OFFSETS_WRT_DST and
712 added an explanatory comment by its #definition.
714 * Updated README.developers with the fact that zotnet/tws is going away.
716 Thu Jul 20 20:30:52 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
718 * Moved Kimmo's new "--with-hash-backup" to be output with the
719 rest of the --with options in the configure --help output. Also,
720 people did not preserve my alphabetization of the --with options
721 when they added new ones. Re-alphabetized.
723 * One more pass at README.developers now that it's clear that my
724 previously-suggested one-line autoconf-file commit can cause
725 unnecessary local makes and an out-of-sync stamp-h.in file, but
726 would not cause problems for other people using the CVS files.
728 * Ken Hornstein's SASL patch was not integrated properly with
729 Ruud's new merged mts/sendmail code. Kimmo has since fixed nmh so
730 it compiles, but according to Ken, the SASL stuff still does not
731 work. Integrating a patch from him for this.
733 * Last pass at README.developers -- Kimmo's 5-step commit was
734 overkill. You only need 3 steps, since configure.in is the only
735 autoconf file with the RCS $Id keyword.
737 * Applied Kurt J. Lidl <lidl@eng.us.uu.net>'s $MAILHOST patch:
739 I have a small patch that would be nice to be included --
740 basically, it allows the usage of the "MAILHOST" environment
741 variable, without having to have HESIOD turned on. I need
742 this functionality for my environment, where we have identical
743 /usr/local on all my machines (so I cannot just hardcode into
744 the mts.conf file), and I have multiple POP mail servers for
747 Modified inc.man to reflect that along with "pophost:" and -host,
748 $MAILHOST can now activate POP mail inclusion as well.
750 * Fixed warnings from diff on first-time install of nmh. Also
751 added 'echo's clarifying the etc file installation activities.
753 Tue Jul 18 19:36:59 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
755 * Added the answer to Dan's question in README.developers.
757 Mon Jul 17 19:10:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
759 * Clarified and made some corrections to Kimmo's README.developers
760 changes (BTW, if anyone can explain why the RCS Ids are able to cause
761 problems with the dependencies, please fill in the explanation --
762 I never encountered a problem with the old single-commit method).
764 Sat Jul 15 23:13:49 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
766 * Add configure option --with-hash-backup so the backup prefix can
767 be easily changed from "," to "#".
769 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that it works with any make.
771 * Use mkstemp in sbr/lock_file.c.
773 * Commits of autoconf-related files apparently can't all be done
774 in one shot due to RCS Ids changing when committing -- updated
777 Tue Jul 11 14:18:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
779 * Clarified post.man and send.man for those not completely up on
780 SASL terminology. "SASL encryption layers are not supported for
781 SMTP" means that encryption is supported for the authentication
782 but not for the subsequent data stream.
784 Sat Jul 8 01:36:19 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
786 * Applied Ken Hornstein <kenh@cmf.nrl.navy.mil>'s patches
787 implementing SASL support for POP3 and SMTP. If nmh is compiled
788 with SASL support, using the -sasl switch on the inc, msgchk,
789 post, and send commands will enable authentication encryption for
790 SMTP, and both authentication and data stream encryption for POP3.
792 Sat Jun 10 18:37:59 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
794 * Merged mts/sendmail functionality into mts/smtp; switching between
795 smtp and sendmail delivery method is now controlled by mts.conf.
797 * If tsort cannot deal with loops, in addition to defining tsort as
798 cat, also define lorder as echo.
800 * Removed uip/popi.c from list of sources.
802 Thu Jun 08 19:36:57 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
804 * New dtimep.lex didn't parse day names properly. Fixed. Also
805 clarified ambiguous comments preceding day_map[] array (from old
806 dtimep.lex) that probably led to the erroneous cp++ being added.
808 Wed Jun 7 20:52:33 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
810 * Added one more mkstemp invocation to uip/spost.c (which was in a
813 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to clean up permissions handling
814 and error handling in uip/inc.c.
816 Mon Jun 5 22:10:07 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
818 * Use cat instead of tsort if tsort cannot deal with loops in its
819 input (which is the case for tsort from GNU textutils).
821 Mon Jun 5 21:14:36 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
823 * If lockfile is present, and its dotlockfile program is setgid,
824 inc does not need to be setgid.
826 Sun Jun 4 21:35:40 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
828 * Added autoconf test for Miquel van Smoorenburg's liblockfile
829 library, as found on Debian systems.
831 * Added liblockfile support to sbr/lock_file.c.
833 Wed May 31 7:19:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
835 * Fixed up dtimep.lex a bit. Added back memory options for AIX to
836 increase available memory. Took out %option noyywrap, which
837 wasn't understood by AT&T lex, as well as the -i
838 case-insensitivity flag.
840 Wed May 31 07:40:45 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
842 * Added a lint target to the Makefiles and a check in autoconf
843 to determine whether lint or lclint exists on the system.
845 Fri May 30 19:21:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
847 * etc/Makefile.in was incorrectly installing mts.conf.in and
848 sendfiles.in -- fixed. Generated sendfiles script was not a
849 dependency of the `all' target, and was incorrectly included in
850 the distribution. Changed the suffix for the backed-up previous
851 versions of the etc files from the ambiguous .old to .prev. Added
852 call to diff -- only keep the .prev files around if different from
853 the newly-installed versions (intentionally didn't redirect output
854 to /dev/null so you'll notice when your changed versions are
855 getting moved aside).
857 * INSTALL never documented the etc/*.old thing. Documented the
858 new etc/*.prev thing (including a note to watch for diff output).
860 * Applied Alec Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu>'s dropsbr.c patch:
862 In the map_write routine, a call is made to map_open and this
863 call is supposed to set the "clear" variable to 0 or 1,
864 depending on whether the map file is empty or not. In
865 mh6.8.3, this worked because map_open would set "clear" by
866 calling the mbx_Xopen routine. In nmh, the code for mbx_Xopen
867 was merged into mbx_open, but the interface for mbx_open
868 doesn't support the clear variable, so that functionality was
869 lost. The map_open interface still contains "int *clear" in
870 the prototype, but never sets it.
872 My patch eliminates "clear" from the map_open interface (I
873 checked to make sure that map_write is the only client of
874 map_open). Furthermore, my patch also sets the "clear"
875 variable properly at the beginning of map_write by calling
876 fstat(). This eliminates the bug in that the value of "clear"
877 being used later in the routine was just stack garbage.
879 Having a bad value of clear causes this next bug to be
880 triggered: The fp file pointer was being opened with fdopen,
881 but in two of the three switch cases it wasn't being closed.
882 In certain cases, this was causing packf to run out of file
883 descriptors if you attempted to pack a large folder.
885 Mon May 29 7:48:15 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
887 * Moved the date parsing routines from zotnet/tws to sbr/ (and
888 tws.h to h/). Updated all source files to reflect to new location
891 * Rewrote dparsetime (in dtimep.lex -> dtimep.c) to replace the
892 old zotnet/tws/dtimep.c, dtimep.lex, lexstring.c, lexedit.c, and
893 dtimep.c-lexed. It should now work with flex (although untested
894 with lex), and requires no sed-ing. For now, I have the lexed
895 version in the distribution, so that end-users don't need to worry
896 about running it through flex/lex. I have not added back support
897 for guessing the time zone when it's not specified.
899 Sun May 28 17:44:15 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
901 * Added autoconf check for getutent().
903 * Changed uip/rcvtty.c and uip/slocal.c to use getutent() and
904 friends. Since I can only check on Linux, please check if
905 this works on other systems.
907 Sun May 28 14:58:49 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
909 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to uip/scansbr.c for more
910 checks for write failures.
912 * Unlink temporary file properly in uip/rcvtty.c.
914 * Moved viamail from bindir to libdir.
916 * Changed sendfiles into sendfiles.in, so that path to viamail
919 * Added gzip support to sendfiles.
921 * Added References header to replcomps and replgroupcomps.
923 Sun May 28 14:39:31 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
925 * Fixed m_getfld bug which caused segmentation faults when
926 incorporating messages which ended in multiple linefeeds crossing
929 Fri May 26 13:21:59 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
931 * msh has been unable to show MIME messages ever since 1.0. Alec
932 Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu> tracked down the problem to the
933 -show flag being passed to mhshow. mhshow is equivalent to the
934 old mhn -show, so we don't need the -show anymore. Removed it.
936 Fri May 12 02:51:21 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
938 * zotnet/bboards is not longer built by default. Goal is to move
939 the assorted functions in zotnet into sbr or some more logical
942 * Moved zotnet/mf to sbr, and changed mf.h references accordingly,
943 as well as Makefiles.
945 Thu May 11 02:21:34 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
947 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that both SRCS and OBJS aren't
948 seperately and redundantly defined, but so that OBJS is a
949 pattern-substituted version of SRCS with suffix .c -> .o. This
950 should make maintainability easier.
952 * Added section to MACHINES indicating what platforms nmh is known
953 to compile and work on, just to give users peace of mind, or
954 something. This is by no means complete or exhaustive, so add
955 whatever you know works.
957 Tue May 09 20:38:04 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
959 * Alphabetized Shantonu's $pop_kinds output on configure's "pop is
960 enabled" line. If POP3 is the only kind of POP enabled, say so,
961 rather than just saying "yes" (which is ambiguous).
963 * Fixed four warnings in Shantonu's new getpass.c. Needed to
964 #include <stdlib.h> for calloc(), <unistd.h> for ttyname(), and
965 "h/mh.h" for adios(). Also changed ch from char to int to get rid
966 of "comparison is always 1 due to limited range of data type" on EOF.
968 * Added steps to README.developers saying to change the version
969 number to X.Y.Z+dev. Did a little rearranging and changed the FTP
970 dir from /home/ftp to /var/ftp to reflect Doug's new machine.
972 * Changed configure.in to use gcc -Wall even without
973 --enable-debug, to prevent developers compiling optimized from
974 introducing warnings, and to give end-users a warm, fuzzy feeling
975 as they (hopefully) see no warnings come out (except perhaps on
976 the lex output file) even with -Wall.
978 * Renamed getpass() to nmh_getpass() since the prototype for
979 getpass() varies from OS to OS, and we want to _always_ use our
980 version of the function. Fixed all the callers to use
981 nmh_getpass() and added it to prototypes.h. Semi-arbitrarily
982 upped MAX_PASSWORD_LEN from 128 to 256. buf was being calloc()'d
983 and the memory leaked -- should have just been declared as static
984 char array. Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the
985 copyright message, as this version has been changed significantly
986 from the BSD version.
988 * Added "nmh-local functions to use in preference to OS versions"
989 section to README.developers (currently just says to use
990 nmh_getpass() instead of system getpass()).
992 * Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the copyright message
995 * Added mts.conf.5 page per Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s
998 This happens on solaris:
1001 windex entry incorrect: mts.conf(5) not found.
1002 No manual entry for mts.conf.
1006 % echo ".so man5/mh-tailor.5" > mts.conf.5
1008 done in the man5 directory. We need to add 'mts.conf.5' as a
1009 reference sourcing mh-tailor.5.
1011 Mon May 08 23:51:55 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1013 * Doug informed me that the way I had restored the "lost" version
1014 histories was wrong, because `cvs checkout's of old versions of
1015 nmh wouldn't work properly. It occurs to me that this could be
1016 fixed by simply deleting those tags in the new-location *,v files,
1017 but oh well. I'm putting everything back to the way Doug
1018 originally had it. To get the old version history for a file that
1019 used to be in the top directory, you'll need to "blindly" do a
1020 `cvs log' there (even though you won't have a local copy of the
1021 file in that directory). `cvs diff' will no longer be able to
1022 diff pre-move versions vs. post-move versions -- you'll have to do
1023 a lot of manual gyrations with `cvs checkout' and then use `diff'.
1025 * I had alphabetized the --configure options in the --help output
1026 awhile back, but Shantonu added --enable-apop just under
1027 --enable-pop. Put it in alphabetical order and clarified what
1028 --enable-apop does vs. --enable-pop and --with-krb4. Also changed
1029 --with-mts help line from "mail transport agent" to "mail
1030 transport agent/service" so the 's' in "mts" doesn't seem to come
1033 * Added two steps to "releasing nmh" in README.developers. After
1034 making the tarball, it's a good idea to diff the tree vs. the CVS
1035 tree to make sure no files got left out, and then to chown the
1036 files so that they're owned by root, preventing a Trojaning attack
1037 by a malicious remote user with a UID matching yours.
1039 * Changed DIFFERENCES to say that RPOP is not currently supported
1040 rather than implying it by saying that APOP, KPOP, and POP[3] are.
1042 Sun May 07 18:16:43 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1044 * Imported NetBSD version of getpass() and made extensive
1045 revisions for compatibility with programs that pipe the password
1046 to stdin, such as exmh.
1048 * Removed tests for system ruserpass() which sometimes gave
1049 phantom positive results. Also, bext to use internal functions if
1050 we ever want to change .netrc format to something else, or access
1053 Sat May 06 08:28:09 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1055 * Restored lost version histories for those moved files by doing a
1056 manual `mv' in the CVSROOT on mhost. CVS badly needs a `cvs mv'
1057 command so that you can move files (without having physical access
1058 to the CVSROOT) without losing versioning. Put MACHINES back at
1059 the top level as it needs to be read before building. Fixed DIST
1060 variable in {.,docs}/Makefile.in to reflect that and to add
1061 missing entry for "INSTALL" file.
1063 Sat May 06 13:13:07 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1065 * Re-cleaned up nmh documentation (by moving things to docs
1066 subdir) and modified Makefile & configure.in to handle the change.
1068 Mon Apr 17 21:28:40 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1070 * Scott Blachowicz pointed out that the configure --help output
1071 for --enable-masquerade was misleading. Clarified.
1073 Mon Apr 17 19:01:00 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1075 * APOP support can be compiled in to inc and msgchk using
1078 * To access an APOP host, specify -apop on the command line
1079 along with any -host or -user option.
1081 Fri Apr 14 23:10:44 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1083 * Upped the version number to 1.0.4+dev until the next nmh release.
1085 * Added a "releasing nmh" section to README.developers, while the
1086 process was fresh in my mind.
1088 Fri Apr 14 18:21:34 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1090 * Added new files README.developers, ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6, and
1091 ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html to DIST target in Makefile.in.
1093 * Released nmh-1.0.4.
1095 Tue Apr 11 21:37:03 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1097 * Applied Brian Campbell <bacam@tardis.ed.ac.uk>'s mhn.defaults.sh
1100 It appears that there shouldn't be quotes around the %s in the
1101 iso-8859-1 charset entry; xterm passes the remaining arguments
1102 to the program, quoting them means that xterm thinks they're
1103 part of the program's name.
1105 This %s isn't the same as the "Insert content subtype" one from
1106 mhshow-show-* -- it doesn't come from MIME headers and is safe not
1109 Sun Apr 09 13:03:59 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1111 * added check in fmt_compile() to handle a single-character
1112 format string. fmt_compile() depends on having an array of
1113 format characters with an empty item at the end. A
1114 single-character format would cause programs using this
1115 function to segfault because the algorithm used to decide on
1116 the length of the array mistakenly created a single-item array
1117 when the format string was one character. This eventually
1118 caused problems when the program attempted to test item+1
1121 Thu Apr 06 21:53:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1123 * Richard Coleman threw out a lot of old MH-specific files in nmh.
1124 Much of the stuff, indeed, is not worth saving, but there are
1125 nuggets that are very worthwhile, and should probably be added
1126 back in. Most important, IMHO, are the MH change logs, as they
1127 can help answer questions like "Why is this code like this?" or
1128 "How long has this been broken?" or "What was this ever used for?"
1130 I've added a new file to the nmh tree called
1131 ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6. It's cobbled together from the
1132 mh-6.8.4/papers/mh*/MHCHANGES files. I've re-ordered the entries
1133 to go from newest at the top to oldest at the bottom to match the
1134 ChangeLog convention. Unfortunately there are no change logs for
1135 versions of MH prior to 3 in the MH tar files available at
1136 <ftp://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/mh>. Also, it appears to me that there
1137 are MH-6.6 changes that aren't documented in the logs.
1139 I've also added ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html. This is
1140 based on mh-6.8.4/papers/changes/mh-changes.ms. The nroff format
1141 and its "catman"-type output are a pain to deal with, but I was
1142 loath to throw away the formatting, so I converted the file to
1143 HTML. The only actual markup in the body are the "<B>" and "<U>"
1144 tags, and "<" and ">" instead of '<' and '>', so it's quite
1145 doable to view the file in plain ASCII mode as well. Note that
1146 some of the changes this file documents as having been made in
1147 MH-6.8.4 may not be present in nmh -- Richard started with 6.8.3
1148 and later put in certain 6.8.4 stuff.
1150 Wed Apr 05 21:09:28 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1152 * Applied Eric Schnoebelen <eric@cirr.com>'s mhshowsbr.c patch
1153 fixing apparent bugs in Dan Winship's new security quoting code:
1155 Since upgrading, I've been getting the following errors
1156 while attempting to process some MIME messages:
1158 (1) Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
1163 (2) line 1/10 (END)Segmentation fault (core dumped)
1165 (2) appears to be due to the testing of an unset pointer in
1166 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux(). (1) appears to be caused by
1167 mis-quoting a filename being handed to the shell in
1168 mhshowsbr.c:show_content_aux().
1170 Resolving the pointer reference issue in
1171 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux() turned up a similar mis-quoting
1172 problem in the routine.
1174 Tue Mar 28 16:17:39 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1176 * Applied Todd.Miller@courtesan.com's patch to dropsbr.c to
1177 prevent core dumping on packf. Here's the note from his message:
1179 Since sizeof(buffer) == sizeof(tmpbuffer) packf will dump
1180 core on a file w/o a From line with a line >= BUFSIZ.
1181 I noticed this because I had a junk file in my mail
1184 Fri Mar 17 11:59:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1186 * wesley.craig@umich.edu did not document his previous KPOP patch,
1187 so I did so, and asked him to check what I wrote. Unfortunately
1188 he didn't notice my misunderstanding of his patch. I wrote that
1189 if you #define POPSERVICE "kpop", inc and msgchk will use KPOP
1190 exclusively, but if you leave it as "pop3", you can use Wesley's
1191 new -kpop switch on a given invocation. Instead, however, -kpop
1192 turned out to be necessary on every invocation, and a KPOP user
1193 complained. Applied Wesley's new patch, which makes things work
1194 like I thought his original patch did. After that, did one more
1195 clarifying pass to the documentation in inc.man and msgchk.man.
1197 Wed Mar 15 18:45:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1199 * When I fixed the long-standing makedir() bugs in January, I had
1200 the code call strtoul(..., 0), which I believed to be safe as all
1201 modes specified as ASCII constants in the nmh code started with a
1202 leading zero (signifying octal), which I did as it would work if
1203 internal constants were ever changed to hex. Unfortunately I was
1204 unaware of the "Folder-Protect:" .mh_profile entry, which
1205 mh-profile.man documents as an octal-only constant, with no
1206 leading zero required. I've changed the strtoul() call to an
1207 atooi() call and removed the misleading leading zeroes on the
1208 ASCII octal constants in the code and man pages. Also changed the
1209 "Folder-Protect:" example in the man page to something more
1210 interesting than a duplication of the default.
1212 * When I added my --enable-masquerade option, you'll note that I
1213 didn't make it --enable-nmh-masquerade. I find the --enable-nmh-*
1214 options too wordy and I'm not sure why Richard went that route.
1215 I've renamed them to just --enable-*, but the old versions will
1216 still work as well (they just aren't advertised).
1218 * Added a line to the "nmh configuration" output saying whether
1221 * Added a new README.developers file. From the file:
1223 This file is intended to provide a few tips for anyone doing
1224 development on nmh. Developers who learn things "the hard
1225 way" about the nmh codebase (as opposed to local info best
1226 encoded in a comment) are encouraged to share their wisdom
1229 Currently the topics are "autoconf files" and "directory structure".
1231 Tue Mar 14 12:41:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1233 * Applied, after some finessing,
1234 Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s --with-smtpservers patch:
1236 Here's a patch that allows you to add
1238 --with-smtpservers=<some.host.name>
1240 to the ./configure command line to set the "servers: " line in
1241 etc/mts.conf. Around here, we use "mailhost" so that all
1242 machines in the current domain just talk to a central machine
1243 and nothing else runs an MTA. Now, I can use
1245 --with-smtpservers=mailhost
1247 instead of having to remember to fix this by hand (and often
1248 forgetting to do so!).
1250 * Inspired by Simon's patch, added an --enable-masquerade option
1251 to configure. It will set the "masquerade:" line of mts.conf.
1252 You may specify a subset of the three types of masquerading, like
1253 --enable-masquerade="draft_from mmailid", or leave off explicit
1254 arguments to enable all three types.
1256 * Alphabetized the --enable and --with options in configure.in and
1257 INSTALL and added documentation of the two new options to the latter.
1259 * Added new dependency for mts.conf: Makefile. If this isn't
1260 done, then when you reconfigure nmh with new values for
1261 --enable-masquerade or --with-smtpservers, you'll fail to get an
1262 updated copy of mts.conf.
1264 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtimep.lex patch:
1266 It seems that some MUA's didn't handle y2k very well - ELM
1267 seems to be one of them, and Ultrix's DXmail (based on MH!).
1268 I've got a few emails this month that look like:
1270 575 Jan 00 Xxxxxx Xxxx 3603 ...
1272 22+ Jan 00 Xxx Xxxxx 1771 ...
1274 The first has "15 Jan 100" as the date and the second has
1275 "19 Jan 00" as the date. The following works around this so
1276 that scan, show, sortm, etc work ok.
1278 I put Simon's patch under the control of a new #define called
1279 FIX_NON_Y2K_COMPLIANT_MUA_DATES. There's some commentary in
1280 acconfig.h about when you might not want to #define it.
1282 * Created new dtimep.c-lexed with Simon's change using dtimep.lex
1283 lexed on Solaris 2.6. Added missing dependency in
1284 zotnet/tws/Makefile.in for dtimep.c: dtimep.c-lexed.
1286 * Added scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD format files.
1288 Mon Mar 13 21:32:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1290 * Applied Sullivan N. Beck <sbeck@cise.ufl.edu>'s mhshow-suffix patch:
1292 With the patch below, you can add lines like:
1294 mhshow-suffix-application/msword: .doc
1295 mhshow-suffix-application/PostScript: .ps
1297 to the mhn.defaults file to append the given suffix to a
1298 scratch file. This allows applications which require a
1299 certain suffix to run properly.
1301 * Removed -force_html from lynx entry in mhn.defaults.sh (I
1302 believe older versions of lynx lack that option) and added
1303 "mhshow-suffix-text/html: .html".
1305 * Modified username_extension masquerading to only use the
1306 extended address on generated [Resent-]From: lines and SMTP
1307 envelope From:. With Neil's original implementation, nmh's global
1308 idea of the username was changed, which would result in inc lying
1309 and saying you had no new mail because it was looking for a
1310 mailbox called, for instance, "dan-nmh" (where username was "dan"
1311 and $USERNAME_EXTENSION was "-nmh").
1313 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtime.c patch:
1315 There's a wrap-around problem that affects the implementation
1316 of Zeller's congruence in dtime.c. This causes the day-of-week
1317 calculations to fail for dates after Feb 29, 2000 (probably up
1318 until some year far in the future).
1320 Mon Mar 06 12:20:20 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1322 * Applied Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s msh.c patch:
1324 I finally tracked down the problem in msh that was causing
1325 errors whenever I tried to examine a 'mmdf' style mailbox.
1327 It turns out that not enough memory was being allocated with
1328 calloc(), causing memory pointers to be overwritten and
1331 Fri Mar 03 16:07:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1333 * Changed the new "plussed_user" option to mts.conf's
1334 "masquerade:" to "username_extension" after getting feedback from
1335 qmail users, who use '-' as a separator rather than '+'. Removed
1336 checking of $USERPLUS variable. Now check $USERNAME_EXTENSION,
1337 which needs to include the appropriate separator for your MTA
1338 ('-', '+', or whatever) as its first character.
1340 Thu Mar 02 23:04:30 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1342 * Added a new "boolean" type to mh.h and TRUE and FALSE constants.
1344 * Added a note to DIFFERENCES stating that it's out-of-date
1345 (Richard was the last one to update it) and that we should
1346 consider only documenting incompatibilities with MH there.
1348 * Implemented (and documented) a third kind of username
1349 masquerading: "plussed user" masquerading. This one was suggested
1350 by Neil Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>. It's based on sendmail's
1351 "plussed user" feature, where mail sent to <user>+<string> will be
1352 delivered to <user>. When it's enabled, it's controlled by the
1353 $USERPLUS environment variable. How is it enabled? Well, that
1356 * Renamed the "mmailid:" setting in mts.conf to "masquerade:", and
1357 changed it so that rather than being a boolean, it can be set to
1358 any combination of the three values "draft_from", "mmailid", and
1359 "plussed_user". Thus it is now possible to enable the three types
1360 of masquerading individually.
1362 * Fixed a bug with "mmailid" masquerading (dating back to MH?)
1363 where if it was turned on, ','s would no longer be considered
1364 GECOS field delimiters.
1366 Wed Mar 01 23:30:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1368 * Changed the GECOS-field '&' translation behavior to be
1369 controlled by the BSD42 #define rather than GCOS_HACK, since it's
1370 apparently always appropriate on OSes where BSD42 is #defined, and
1371 never appropriate on any other OSes. Thanks to Kimmo Suominen for
1372 responding to my "What is this code here for?" comment in mts.c
1373 and explaining the feature.
1375 Mon Feb 28 21:50:29 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1377 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3+dev (ideally this should be
1378 done by whoever makes a release tar file, immediately after doing
1381 * Applied Paul Fox <pgf-spam@foxharp.boston.ma.us>'s scansbr.c
1382 patch, posted to comp.mail.mh, which he says prevents loss of mail
1383 when inc'ing into a full filesystem.
1385 * Changed "echo > stamp-h.in" in Makefile.in to "date > stamp-h.in"
1386 so that stamp-h.in will be different each time configure.in and
1387 related files are changed, making it easier to check it in (which
1388 is necessary to prevent unnecessary autoconf calls).
1390 * My declaration of initgroups() in slocal.c to eliminate the "no
1391 prototype" warning wasn't portable (FreeBSD 3.[23] choked). Now
1392 use AC_EGREP_HEADER to see where initgroups() is declared, if
1395 Sun Feb 20 12:17:15 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1397 * Fix security hole in mhshowsbr.c which allowed untrusted shell
1398 code to be executed.
1400 * Released nmh 1.0.3.
1402 Thu Feb 10 10:54:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1404 * Oops. %-escapes on mhstore lines in mhn.defaults.sh should not
1405 be surrounded by single quotes, as a shell is not spawned when
1406 just saving files, and the filenames will end up with literal
1407 quotes embedded in them.
1409 Fri Feb 04 12:29:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1411 * Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
1412 got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
1413 the -help output. One theory is that they were making reference
1414 to the fact that clearly you know about the -help option since
1415 you're currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea
1416 to overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
1417 supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
1420 The other theory is that because you can say something like
1421 "mhstore -" and get "mhstore: - ambiguous. It matches" followed
1422 by the same list of switches you get with -help, they were saying
1423 you can "sorta" abbreviate "-help" as "-". You don't get the
1424 "Usage:" string, though, so it's not really the same thing.
1426 Thu Feb 03 17:52:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1428 * Applied wesley.craig@umich.edu's KPOP patches. According to him:
1430 The following patch fixes a problem with requesting a
1431 service key for a machine that has multiple 'A' records. It
1432 also makes "-kpop" a command line option, for users who
1433 would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".
1435 Did no testing of the new features, as I don't have access to a
1438 * Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
1440 * Modified INSTALL and config.h.in to reflect the new -kpop feature.
1442 Fri Jan 28 17:39:24 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1444 * All %-escapes in mhn.defaults that actually expand to something
1445 should be surrounded by single quotes. Added quotes to the ones
1446 in mhn.defaults.sh that were missing them.
1448 * Added check for lynx to write mhshow-show-text/html line in
1451 Thu Jan 27 12:22:25 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1453 * makedir() had multiple bugs dating back to MH. An octal
1454 constant was apparently being interpreted as decimal, resulting in
1455 directories with no user read or execute permissions, making
1456 nested directory creation fail. And there wasn't even an
1457 _attempt_ to set desired permissions (e.g. from "Folder-Protect:"
1458 in .mh_profile) on the outer directories of a nested directory.
1460 * A second `make install' would always fail because the check for
1461 whether mh_profile.5 existed was written incorrectly.
1463 Wed Jan 26 02:22:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1465 * Added documentation on both types of masquerading to post's man
1468 Tue Jan 25 22:58:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1470 * Doug's portability fix of my setgid inc autodetection had a
1471 caching bug -- if you re-ran configure, uip/Makefile would be
1472 corrupted, and installation would bomb out on OSes where inc needs
1475 * Implemented a new kind of email address masquerading. Usually,
1476 when a user writes a custom "From:" header in a draft, nmh uses it
1477 rather than generating one. However, the user's true address is
1478 used in the SMTP envelope "From:" and is revealed in the "Sender:"
1479 header. Now, when mmailid is set to non-zero, the envelope
1480 "From:" uses the address specified in the draft "From:" header,
1481 and there is no "Sender:" header. This is useful when sending on
1482 behalf of a remote POP3 account or when remote mail robots
1483 incorrectly use the envelope "From:" in preference to the body
1484 "From:". This processing has only been implemented for post, not
1485 for the undocumented spost (which was already missing some "From:"
1486 processing that post has).
1488 Mon Jan 24 22:26:06 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1490 * Got rid of the rest of the gcc -Wall warnings that I didn't have
1491 time for on 1999-07-15 (and, it would seem, some new ones people
1492 introduced since then). The primary ones were the warnings that
1493 default prototypes were being used for [v]snprintf() and
1494 str[n]casecmp(). As of right now, there are _no_ compilation
1495 warnings except on dtimep.c-lexed (at least under AIX 4.1.5 and
1498 Sun Jan 2 23:42:18 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1500 * Move mhtest from bindir to libdir.
1502 * Move sendfiles from libdir to bindir.
1504 * Updated sendfiles manpage to reflect this change.
1506 * Added documentation for -build and -file switches to repl and
1507 forw manpages (patch from Peter Maydell).
1509 * Fixed interaction between specifying -cc in profile and -group on
1512 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1514 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
1515 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
1516 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
1519 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1521 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
1522 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
1523 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
1524 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
1525 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
1526 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).
1528 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1530 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
1532 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1534 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
1535 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
1536 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
1537 caught again. This works for now.
1539 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
1541 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1543 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
1544 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
1546 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1548 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
1549 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
1551 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
1553 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
1555 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1557 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
1558 changes. Both need more cleanup.
1560 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1562 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
1563 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
1564 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
1565 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
1566 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
1569 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1571 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
1572 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
1573 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
1575 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
1576 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
1579 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1581 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
1582 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
1583 to a directory on another device with more free space.
1585 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1587 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
1588 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
1590 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1592 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
1595 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
1596 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
1598 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
1599 macros, regardless of platform.
1601 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
1602 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1604 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
1605 with x-conversions=gzip.
1607 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1609 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
1612 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
1613 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
1614 implicit definition of ioctl().
1616 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
1617 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
1618 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
1619 want to mess with them.
1621 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1623 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
1624 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
1626 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
1627 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
1629 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
1630 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
1631 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
1633 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
1634 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
1635 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
1637 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
1638 function initgroups.
1640 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
1643 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
1644 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
1647 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
1648 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
1651 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
1652 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
1656 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1658 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
1659 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
1660 preventing compilation on at least linux.
1662 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
1663 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
1665 Thu Sep 09 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1667 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
1669 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
1670 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
1671 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
1672 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
1674 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
1675 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
1677 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1679 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
1681 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1683 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
1684 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
1686 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1688 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
1689 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
1691 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
1692 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
1693 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
1694 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
1696 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
1697 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
1699 Sat Jun 09 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1701 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
1702 substitute it for mktemp if available.
1704 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1706 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
1707 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
1710 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
1712 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
1714 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
1716 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
1717 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
1719 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
1720 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
1721 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
1723 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
1724 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
1725 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
1727 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
1728 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
1729 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1731 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
1732 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
1735 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
1736 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1738 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
1739 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1741 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
1742 <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1744 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
1745 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
1746 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1748 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
1749 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1751 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
1752 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
1753 <elleron@servtech.com>.
1755 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
1756 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
1759 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
1760 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
1762 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
1763 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
1764 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
1765 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
1767 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
1768 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
1770 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1774 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
1775 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
1776 would not be changed.
1778 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
1779 one from the Apache web server.
1781 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
1782 (this should have been done a long time ago).
1784 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
1785 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
1786 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
1788 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
1790 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
1792 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
1793 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
1796 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
1797 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
1798 removes a bad race condition.
1800 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
1803 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
1804 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
1805 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
1807 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
1808 sequence information.
1810 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
1811 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
1813 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
1816 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
1819 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
1821 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
1822 interpret 034 as octal.
1824 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
1826 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
1827 mhstore, and mhbuild.
1829 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
1830 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
1832 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
1833 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
1835 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
1836 in the c_cefile structure when building.
1838 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
1839 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
1841 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
1842 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
1843 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
1845 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
1846 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
1847 and mhshow. Updated man pages
1849 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
1851 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
1853 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
1854 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
1857 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
1859 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
1860 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
1862 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
1863 header field information.
1865 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
1866 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
1868 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
1869 values when parsing a content.
1871 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
1872 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
1874 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
1875 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
1877 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
1878 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1880 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
1881 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
1883 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
1885 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
1887 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
1889 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
1891 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
1892 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
1895 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
1896 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
1898 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
1899 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
1900 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
1901 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
1902 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
1903 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
1906 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1908 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
1909 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
1910 buffer length checks for this parameter.
1912 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
1913 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
1915 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1917 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
1918 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
1919 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
1920 of the limits on the length of command lines.
1922 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
1923 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
1926 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
1927 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
1928 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
1929 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
1932 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1934 * Released nmh-0.27.
1936 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
1937 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
1939 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
1940 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
1941 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
1942 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
1945 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
1946 mhbuild returns an error.
1948 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
1949 rename the draft file.
1951 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
1952 use a global variable.
1954 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
1955 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
1957 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
1958 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
1960 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
1961 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
1962 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
1964 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
1965 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
1967 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
1968 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
1971 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
1972 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
1975 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
1976 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
1978 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
1979 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
1980 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
1982 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
1983 to new function output_content_folder.
1985 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
1986 new function output_content_file.
1988 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
1989 to new function parse_format_string.
1991 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
1992 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
1993 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
1994 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
1996 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
1997 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
1998 message/external file from ftp.
2000 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
2001 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
2002 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
2004 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
2005 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
2008 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
2011 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
2012 new file mhstoresbr.c
2014 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
2017 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
2018 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
2020 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
2021 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
2023 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
2024 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
2025 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
2027 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
2029 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
2031 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
2032 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
2035 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
2036 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
2038 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
2041 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
2043 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2045 * Released nmh-0.26.
2047 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
2048 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
2049 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
2050 is still the same (dashstuffing).
2052 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
2053 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
2054 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
2055 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
2056 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
2058 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
2059 But it is not on by default.
2061 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
2062 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
2064 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
2066 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
2068 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
2070 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
2072 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
2073 number of the "cur" message when packing.
2075 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2077 * Released nmh-0.25.
2079 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
2080 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
2081 uses the original name of the library.
2083 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
2084 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
2087 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
2088 list_content and list_debug.
2090 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
2092 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
2093 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.
2095 1998-02-27 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2097 * Released nmh-0.24.
2099 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
2101 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
2102 are given, that order doesn't matter.
2104 * Fix bug in seq_list.c when realloc'ing for
2105 large sequence line.
2107 1998-02-23 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2109 * Released nmh-0.23.
2111 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
2113 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
2114 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan
2115 content, decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary
2116 string). I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
2118 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
2119 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
2122 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
2124 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
2126 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
2128 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
2129 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
2131 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
2132 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.
2134 * Add note to MACHINES file that on Linux, configure
2135 doesn't find the functions sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
2137 * Fix configuration for machines that don't have (or find)
2138 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
2140 1998-02-11 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2142 * Released nmh-0.22.
2144 * Add a configure check for sigsetjmp. Add some conditional
2145 #define's in h/signals.h in case it's not found.
2147 * Added additional notes about -auto switch in mhn man page.
2149 * Added note about MM_CHARSET environment variable to
2150 mh-profile(5) man page.
2152 * Fix signal problem in mhn.c (change setjmp/longjmp to
2153 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp).
2155 1998-02-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2157 * Released nmh-0.22-pre1.
2159 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
2160 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
2162 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
2164 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
2165 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
2166 entry point for parsing MIME files.
2168 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
2169 source message on the standard input.
2171 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
2173 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
2174 rather than -rfc934mode.
2176 * Fix mhbuild, so that Content-Description and RFC-822 comments
2177 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
2180 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
2181 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).
2183 * Restore HP specific code to zotnet/tws/lexstring.c. Apparently
2186 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2188 * Released nmh-0.21.
2190 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
2191 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.
2193 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what transfer
2196 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what character set
2197 to use for text contents.
2199 * Removed old hpux specific code from zotnet/tws/lexstring.c
2201 1998-02-02 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2203 * Released nmh-0.21-pre2.
2205 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
2207 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
2208 header fields as per RFC-2047.
2210 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
2211 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
2212 spaces between encoded word are.
2214 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
2216 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
2217 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
2219 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
2220 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
2221 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
2223 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
2225 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
2226 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
2228 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.
2230 * Added support for %(decode) to fmtdump.c.
2232 * check_charset() now accepts US-ASCII as a subset of any
2233 ISO-8859-X character set.
2235 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
2238 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
2239 permissions, not write permissions.
2241 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
2242 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
2244 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
2247 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2249 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
2251 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
2252 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
2254 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
2255 message contains valid character set.
2257 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
2258 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
2260 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
2261 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
2263 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
2264 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
2265 between an encoded word and normal text.
2267 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
2268 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
2270 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
2271 as a RFC-2047 header field.
2273 * The command install-mh now recognizes the switches -version
2276 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
2277 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
2280 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
2281 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
2283 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
2284 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
2286 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
2288 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2290 * Released nmh-0.20.
2292 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
2294 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.
2296 * Changed the default format file for mhl (mhl.format) to
2297 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
2298 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
2300 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
2301 and the To: line was missing.
2303 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
2305 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2307 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
2309 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
2310 watch the POP transaction.
2312 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
2313 first, and use it if available.
2315 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
2316 first, and use it if available.
2318 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2320 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
2322 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
2323 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
2324 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
2327 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
2328 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
2329 returns the state FLDPLUS.
2331 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
2332 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
2335 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
2337 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
2338 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
2340 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
2342 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
2343 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
2345 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
2346 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
2347 message to which you are replying.
2349 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
2350 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
2351 making group replies.
2353 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
2355 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2357 * Released nmh-0.19.
2359 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
2360 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
2362 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
2363 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
2364 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
2365 to the end of the man page.
2367 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
2368 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
2369 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
2370 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
2371 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
2372 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
2374 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
2377 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
2378 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
2379 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
2381 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
2382 the next available number above the message number you wish
2385 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
2386 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
2388 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
2389 file sbr/seq_print.c
2391 * flist will now update the current folder.
2393 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
2394 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
2395 but now undocumented.
2397 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
2400 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
2401 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
2403 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
2405 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
2406 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
2408 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2410 * Released nmh-0.18.
2412 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
2413 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
2414 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
2416 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
2417 retains the public/private status of sequences.
2419 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
2420 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
2421 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
2422 previous public/private status.
2424 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
2427 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
2430 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
2431 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
2432 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
2434 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
2435 take option to determine whether it should get current
2436 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
2437 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
2439 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
2441 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
2442 wait for stopped processes.
2444 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
2445 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
2447 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2449 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
2451 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
2452 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
2454 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
2455 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
2457 * Change the way that memory for message status is
2458 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
2459 the folder/message structure. This required changing
2460 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
2462 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
2465 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
2468 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
2470 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
2471 the debugging output.
2473 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
2474 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
2476 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2478 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
2480 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
2481 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
2483 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
2485 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
2486 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
2487 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
2488 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
2489 in the given sequence.
2491 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
2492 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
2493 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
2494 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
2495 subdirectories of a given directory.
2497 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
2498 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
2499 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
2501 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
2502 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
2504 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
2506 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
2509 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
2510 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
2511 fields are now calculated at runtime.
2513 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
2514 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
2515 are calculated at runtime.
2517 Sun Nov 30 19:14:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2519 * Released nmh-0.18-pre2.
2521 * Add paragraph to man page for install-mh and to INSTALL file
2522 about checking for global mh.profile.
2524 * Renamed m_find() to context_find().
2525 Renamed m_replace() to context_replace().
2526 Renamed m_delete() to context_del().
2527 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
2528 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
2529 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
2531 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
2532 adding message to folder itself.
2534 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
2535 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
2536 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
2539 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
2540 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
2543 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
2544 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
2545 is the same as the direct smtp code).
2547 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
2548 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
2550 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
2551 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
2552 code to use it yet).
2554 Thu Nov 13 18:42:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2556 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.
2558 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never
2559 called with a value larger than 30 mintues.
2561 * Fixed race condition in rmm and refile, so that
2562 context is updated before external rmmproc is called.
2564 * Removed all the OVERHEAD code.
2566 * Move code to add message to folder from refile.c
2569 Fri Jul 25 19:39:29 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2571 * Did some rearranging of the internals of inc.c.
2573 * Make -inplace the default for anno, forw, dist, and repl.
2575 * Changed --enable-smtp to --with-mts={smtp,sendmail}
2577 * Created new directory mts/sendmail for direct sendmail
2578 interface (although it currently still uses SMTP).
2580 * Removed all the TMA (trusted mail agent) code
2582 * Removed all the TTYD (terminal access daemon) code
2584 * Removed all the MF (uucp filtering) code.
2586 * Removed all the code for BERK.
2588 * Removed all the code for stand-alone delivery (MHMTS).
2590 * Split the file mts/sendmail/smail.c into sendmail.c and
2591 smtp.c. Changed the name of the directory to mts/smtp.
2593 * Changed autoconf to use @sysconfdir@ for location of
2594 configuration files.
2596 * Changed #define in mhn.c from FTP to BUILTIN_FTP.
2598 Mon Jul 21 03:22:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2600 * Released nmh-0.17.
2602 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
2604 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
2605 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
2607 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
2610 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
2611 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
2613 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
2614 number of refiled message.
2616 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
2618 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
2619 for return value of wait().
2621 * Change configure to also check /bin for "more".
2623 Sat Jul 12 00:02:23 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2625 * Released nmh-0.16.
2627 Mon Jun 23 20:13:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2629 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
2631 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
2632 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
2633 deal with binary messages, yet).
2635 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
2637 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
2639 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
2640 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
2641 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
2642 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
2643 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
2644 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
2646 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
2647 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
2649 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
2650 From MH-6.8.4 patch.
2652 * Fix double free of ctinfo in user_content when using
2653 #forw with single message. From John MacMillan (and
2656 * Changed -mhnproc switch for show, to -showmimeproc.
2658 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".
2660 * Added "mime" option to "whatnow", which calls the program
2661 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
2664 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
2667 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
2669 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
2670 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
2671 which used unsigned chars by default.
2673 Sat Jun 21 01:21:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2675 * Released nmh-0.15.
2677 * Added new form "scan.unseen" to distribution. It marks messages
2678 which are in any sequence in Unseen-Sequence.
2680 * Do some rearranging of date/time code in zotnet/tws/dtime.c
2682 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
2684 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
2687 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
2688 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
2689 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
2691 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
2692 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
2694 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
2696 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
2697 they conflict with defines on AIX.
2699 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
2700 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
2701 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
2702 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
2704 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
2705 and put in own subroutine.
2707 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
2708 and put in own subroutine.
2710 * Moved code to remove messages from folder into own
2711 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and
2712 refile.c to use new routine.
2714 Fri May 16 06:09:31 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2716 * Renamed m_seqok to seq_nameok.
2718 * Changed m_setunseen, msh, mshcmds, flist, and scan to use
2721 * Changed m_seqflag to return the number of a sequence rather
2722 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
2723 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
2725 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
2728 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before
2729 adding message to sequence.
2731 * Renamed function m_setvis to m_setunseen, and renamed
2732 corresponding file in sbr.
2734 * Renamed function m_setseq to m_setprev, and renamed corresponding
2737 * Changed mark.c and pick.c to use m_seqaddsel and m_seqdelsel.
2739 * Added new function m_seqdelsel to m_seqdel.c, which deletes
2740 all selected messages from a sequence.
2742 * Added new function m_seqaddsel to m_seqadd.c, which adds all
2743 selected messages to a sequence.
2745 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,
2748 Thu May 15 00:53:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2750 * Renamed function pack_folder to m_packfolder, and moved it
2751 from uip/folder.c into its own file sbr/m_packfolder.c
2753 Wed May 14 23:38:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2755 * Changed function m_gmsg to m_readfolder. Renamed file
2756 sbr/m_gmsg.c to sbr/m_readfolder.c.
2758 Mon May 5 19:57:11 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2760 * Expanded rcvtty man page, and added small patch from
2761 MH-6.8.4 distribution.

2765 * Released nmh-0.14.
2767 * Comment out configure test and code for tgetent to allocate its
2768 own termcap buffer when passed a NULL argument.
2770 Sat Apr 26 03:46:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2772 * Added new options `-checkmime', `-nocheckmime', and `-mhnproc'
2773 to show. Restructured code to handle options to various
2774 `procs' better. Deprecated `-noshowproc' option and NOMHNPROC
2775 environment variable.
2777 * Added new man page `mh-draft' which documents the
2778 draft folder facility in nmh.
2780 * Renamed fmtsbr.h to fmt_scan.h. Renamed fmtcompile.h
2783 * split fmtsbr.c into fmt_scan.c and fmt_new.c. Renamed

2787 * `send -help' wasn't showing the -(no)mime and -split
2790 Fri Apr 25 02:50:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2792 * Released nmh-0.13.
2794 * Changed mhpath so it doesn't abort if a message sequence
2795 such as "mhpath all" expands to more than 1000 messages.
2796 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
2797 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
2800 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
2801 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
2803 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2805 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if
2806 necessary. So `folders' can now handle more than 300 folders.
2808 Tue Apr 22 14:01:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2810 * Change configure to use a compile check to see if the tm struct
2811 has tm_gmtoff, rather than using egrep.
2813 Mon Apr 21 02:19:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2815 * Released nmh-0.12.
2817 * Had set_exists and unset_exists macros backwards.
2819 * Released nmh-0.11.
2821 Thu Apr 10 02:39:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2823 * Added documentation to mh-profile.man about the various
2824 `procs' (mhlproc, showproc, lproc, etc...).
2826 * Replace the bit twiddling for SELECTED, UNSEEN, and
2827 mp->attrstats with macros.
2829 * If system doesn't have SIGEMT (like Linux), then use SIGTERM
2832 * Change fstat to stat in m_gmsg.c since Linux wants
2835 * Merge Linux patch sent in by Michel Oosterhof (original
2836 patch from bsa@kf8nh.wariat.org).
2838 * Document an undocumented MH feature. mhn -form mhl.null
2839 will suppress the display of the message header.
2841 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
2843 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c
2844 and mshcmds.c, rather than hard coding in /bin/cat.
2846 * Add mhnproc to the list of `procs' in mh-profile.man.
2848 * Add configure test for lorder and tsort commands.
2850 * Commented out the padding in the `msgs` struct in h/mh.h
2852 * Change m_gmsg.c to allocate elements to the `info' array by
2853 500 elements at a time (rather than MAXFOLDERS / 5).
2855 * Add note to man page for mhmail that zero length messages are
2856 not sent. Need to use -body "" to send empty messages.
2858 * zotnet/mts/mts.c : compare character with '\0', not NULL.
2860 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
2862 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
2863 folder/message structure when done with folder.
2865 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is
2866 defined even if message is missing "From " line.
2868 Mon Mar 31 03:37:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2870 * Released nmh-0.10.

2880 The "From " line is now removed from all messages.
2882 * inc now saves the date from the "From " envelope in the
2883 Delivery-Date header for all messages.
2885 * sbr/m_getfld.c: Clean up processing of Return-Path and

2888 Mon Mar 17 19:03:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2890 * client.c: cast iaddr to int before comparing return value
2891 of inet_addr with NOTOK.
2893 Tue Mar 11 04:38:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2895 * Grep test for signal names was failing on some OS'es because
2896 of missing tabs in regex.
2898 Sat Mar 8 01:58:22 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2900 * Released nmh-0.09.
2902 * Move config files and format files to *.old before installing.

2918 * ruserpass.c : removed conflicting prototypes.
2920 * rcvtty.c : Fixed rcvtty to obey terminal permissions granted

2923 Mon Mar 3 00:18:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2925 * rcvtty.c : Changed to use #define UTMP_FILE (if exists) rather
2926 than hard coded "/etc/utmp".
2928 * Released nmh-0.08.
2930 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
2931 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of
2932 locking database itself.
2934 Thu Feb 27 05:28:09 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2936 * Added slocal action `mmdf' to deliver to a file in mmdf format.
2938 * Changed the slocal actions `file' and `>' to always deliver in
2939 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
2942 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
2943 rather than mmdf format.
2945 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
2946 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
2947 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
2948 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
2950 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
2952 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2954 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
2957 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2958 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2959 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
2961 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2962 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2963 rcvpack so you can choose the preferred format.
2965 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2967 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
2968 can still easily change this in config.h).
2970 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
2971 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
2972 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
2974 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2976 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather
2977 than tzset and external timezone variable.
2979 Thu Feb 13 00:35:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2981 * Fixed typo in ruserpass.c in the variable toktabs.
2983 * When ruserpass was added to LIBOBJS, it was missing

2988 Tue Feb 11 01:29:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2990 * Add check to configure, so that if ruserpass, or _ruserpass
2991 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
2993 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
2994 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
2997 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
2998 built-in FTP client in mhn.

3011 * Released nmh-0.06.
3013 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
3014 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
3016 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
3017 many such machines around anymore.
3019 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
3020 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
3022 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
3023 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
3025 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3027 * Check lex generated file in zotnet/tws and use
3028 pre-generated version if necessary.
3030 * Released nmh-0.05.
3032 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
3033 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
3034 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
3035 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
3037 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
3038 be linked in one pass.
3040 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3042 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
3043 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
3045 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3047 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
3049 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3051 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
3052 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
3053 become the current folder.
3055 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3057 * Released nmh-0.04.
3059 * Define ospeed and PC in termsbr.c is OS doesn't have
3062 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3064 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
3065 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
3066 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
3068 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3070 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
3071 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
3073 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3075 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
3076 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
3079 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
3080 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
3082 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3084 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
3085 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
3086 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
3087 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
3088 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
3089 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
3091 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3093 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
3094 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
3096 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
3097 a file (currently need to specify full path).
3099 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3101 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
3102 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
3104 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3106 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
3107 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
3108 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
3110 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3112 * Released nmh-0.03.
3114 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
3115 .mh_sequence file existed.
3117 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
3118 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
3120 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
3121 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
3124 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3126 * Changed flist option -unseen to -[no]all. Cleaned up
3129 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3131 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
3132 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
3133 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
3135 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3137 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
3138 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
3139 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
3141 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3143 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL
3144 and allocate its own buffer. Borrowed from zsh.
3146 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
3148 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3150 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
3151 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
3152 directory from where the source code is located.
3154 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3156 * Released nmh-0.02.
3158 Wed Jan 1 17:41:52 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

3163 Tue Dec 31 03:07:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3165 * Changed code to use strerror, rather than using sys_errlist
3166 and sys_nerr directly.
3168 Mon Dec 30 02:15:25 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3170 * -compat switch from install-mh removed.
3172 * Changed the default POP port from "pop" to "pop3".
3174 Sat Dec 28 13:25:05 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3176 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
3177 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
3178 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
3179 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
3180 rather than in script.
3182 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3184 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
3186 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with
3187 macro defined on Solaris.
3189 Thu Dec 26 02:50:15 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3191 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
3192 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
3194 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
3195 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
3196 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
3197 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
3200 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3202 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
3203 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.
3205 * Fixed configure test so that termcap variable ospeed is
3208 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3210 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
3212 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included
3213 in mhn.c. Changed md5 to use memset and memcpy.
3215 Fri Dec 20 02:29:37 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3217 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
3218 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
3220 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3222 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
3223 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
3224 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
3225 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
3226 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
3227 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
3229 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3231 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
3233 * Released nmh-0.01.
3235 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
3236 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
3237 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
3240 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3242 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
3245 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3247 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
3248 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
3250 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3252 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
3253 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
3254 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
3255 script to find_program.
3257 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3259 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
3260 speed up -recurse option.
3262 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
3263 yet, but it compiles :-)
3265 * Changed default location for install to
3266 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
3267 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
3268 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
3271 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
3272 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
3273 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
