3 * Alphabetized Shantonu's $pop_kinds output on configure's "pop is
4 enabled" line. If POP3 is the only kind of POP enabled, say so,
5 rather than just saying "yes" (which is ambiguous).
7 * Got rid of four warnings in Shantonu's new getpass.c. Needed to
8 #include <stdlib.h> for calloc(), <unistd.h> for ttyname(), and
9 "h/mh.h" for adios(). Also changed ch from char to int to get rid
10 of "comparison is always 1 due to limited range of data type" on EOF.
12 Mon May 08 23:51:55 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
14 * Doug informed me that the way I had restored the "lost" version
15 histories was wrong, because `cvs checkout's of old versions of
16 nmh wouldn't work properly. It occurs to me that this could be
17 fixed by simply deleting those tags in the new-location *,v files,
18 but oh well. I'm putting everything back to the way Doug
19 originally had it. To get the old version history for a file that
20 used to be in the top directory, you'll need to "blindly" do a
21 `cvs log' there (even though you won't have a local copy of the
22 file in that directory). `cvs diff' will no longer be able to
23 diff pre-move versions vs. post-move versions -- you'll have to do
24 a lot of manual gyrations with `cvs checkout' and then use `diff'.
26 * I had alphabetized the --configure options in the --help output
27 awhile back, but Shantonu added --enable-apop just under
28 --enable-pop. Put it in alphabetical order and clarified what
29 --enable-apop does vs. --enable-pop and --with-krb4. Also changed
30 --with-mts help line from "mail transport agent" to "mail
31 transport agent/service" so the 's' in "mts" doesn't seem to come
34 * Added two steps to "releasing nmh" in README.developers. After
35 making the tarball, it's a good idea to diff the tree vs. the CVS
36 tree to make sure no files got left out, and then to chown the
37 files so that they're owned by root, preventing a Trojaning attack
38 by a malicious remote user with a UID matching yours.
40 * Changed DIFFERENCES to say that RPOP is not currently supported
41 rather than implying it by saying that APOP, KPOP, and POP[3] are.
43 Sat May 06 08:28:09 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
45 * Restored lost version histories for those moved files by doing a
46 manual `mv' in the CVSROOT on mhost. CVS badly needs a `cvs mv'
47 command so that you can move files (without having physical access
48 to the CVSROOT) without losing versioning. Put MACHINES back at
49 the top level as it needs to be read before building. Fixed DIST
50 variable in {.,docs}/Makefile.in to reflect that and to add
51 missing entry for "INSTALL" file.
53 Sat May 06 13:13:07 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
55 * Re-cleaned up nmh documentation (by moving things to docs
56 subdir) and modified Makefile & configure.in to handle the change.
58 Mon Apr 17 21:28:40 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
60 * Scott Blachowicz pointed out that the configure --help output
61 for --enable-masquerade was misleading. Clarified.
63 Mon Apr 17 19:01:00 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
65 * APOP support can be compiled in to inc and msgchk using
68 * To access an APOP host, specify -apop on the command line
69 along with any -host or -user option.
71 Fri Apr 14 23:10:44 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
73 * Upped the version number to 1.0.4+dev until the next nmh release.
75 * Added a "releasing nmh" section to README.developers, while the
76 process was fresh in my mind.
78 Fri Apr 14 18:21:34 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
80 * Added new files README.developers, ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6, and
81 ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html to DIST target in Makefile.in.
85 Tue Apr 11 21:37:03 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
87 * Applied Brian Campbell <bacam@tardis.ed.ac.uk>'s mhn.defaults.sh
90 It appears that there shouldn't be quotes around the %s in the
91 iso-8859-1 charset entry; xterm passes the remaining arguments
92 to the program, quoting them means that xterm thinks they're
93 part of the program's name.
95 This %s isn't the same as the "Insert content subtype" one from
96 mhshow-show-* -- it doesn't come from MIME headers and is safe not
99 Sun Apr 09 13:03:59 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
101 * added check in fmt_compile() to handle a single-character
102 format string. fmt_compile() depends on having an array of
103 format characters with an empty item at the end. A
104 single-character format would cause programs using this
105 function to segfault because the algorithm used to decide on
106 the length of the array mistakenly created a single-item array
107 when the format string was one character. This eventually
108 caused problems when the program attempted to test item+1
111 Thu Apr 06 21:53:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
113 * Richard Coleman threw out a lot of old MH-specific files in nmh.
114 Much of the stuff, indeed, is not worth saving, but there are
115 nuggets that are very worthwhile, and should probably be added
116 back in. Most important, IMHO, are the MH change logs, as they
117 can help answer questions like "Why is this code like this?" or
118 "How long has this been broken?" or "What was this ever used for?"
120 I've added a new file to the nmh tree called
121 ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6. It's cobbled together from the
122 mh-6.8.4/papers/mh*/MHCHANGES files. I've re-ordered the entries
123 to go from newest at the top to oldest at the bottom to match the
124 ChangeLog convention. Unfortunately there are no change logs for
125 versions of MH prior to 3 in the MH tar files available at
126 <ftp://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/mh>. Also, it appears to me that there
127 are MH-6.6 changes that aren't documented in the logs.
129 I've also added ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html. This is
130 based on mh-6.8.4/papers/changes/mh-changes.ms. The nroff format
131 and its "catman"-type output are a pain to deal with, but I was
132 loath to throw away the formatting, so I converted the file to
133 HTML. The only actual markup in the body are the "<B>" and "<U>"
134 tags, and "<" and ">" instead of '<' and '>', so it's quite
135 doable to view the file in plain ASCII mode as well. Note that
136 some of the changes this file documents as having been made in
137 MH-6.8.4 may not be present in nmh -- Richard started with 6.8.3
138 and later put in certain 6.8.4 stuff.
140 Wed Apr 05 21:09:28 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
142 * Applied Eric Schnoebelen <eric@cirr.com>'s mhshowsbr.c patch
143 fixing apparent bugs in Dan Winship's new security quoting code:
145 Since upgrading, I've been getting the following errors
146 while attempting to process some MIME messages:
148 (1) Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
153 (2) line 1/10 (END)Segmentation fault (core dumped)
155 (2) appears to be due to the testing of an unset pointer in
156 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux(). (1) appears to be caused by
157 mis-quoting a filename being handed to the shell in
158 mhshowsbr.c:show_content_aux().
160 Resolving the pointer reference issue in
161 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux() turned up a similar mis-quoting
162 problem in the routine.
164 Tue Mar 28 16:17:39 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
166 * Applied Todd.Miller@courtesan.com's patch to dropsbr.c to
167 prevent core dumping on packf. Here's the note from his message:
169 Since sizeof(buffer) == sizeof(tmpbuffer) packf will dump
170 core on a file w/o a From line with a line >= BUFSIZ.
171 I noticed this because I had a junk file in my mail
174 Fri Mar 17 11:59:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
176 * wesley.craig@umich.edu did not document his previous KPOP patch,
177 so I did so, and asked him to check what I wrote. Unfortunately
178 he didn't notice my misunderstanding of his patch. I wrote that
179 if you #define POPSERVICE "kpop", inc and msgchk will use KPOP
180 exclusively, but if you leave it as "pop3", you can use Wesley's
181 new -kpop switch on a given invocation. Instead, however, -kpop
182 turned out to be necessary on every invocation, and a KPOP user
183 complained. Applied Wesley's new patch, which makes things work
184 like I thought his original patch did. After that, did one more
185 clarifying pass to the documentation in inc.man and msgchk.man.
187 Wed Mar 15 18:45:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
189 * When I fixed the long-standing makedir() bugs in January, I had
190 the code call strtoul(..., 0), which I believed to be safe as all
191 modes specified as ASCII constants in the nmh code started with a
192 leading zero (signifying octal), which I did as it would work if
193 internal constants were ever changed to hex. Unfortunately I was
194 unaware of the "Folder-Protect:" .mh_profile entry, which
195 mh-profile.man documents as an octal-only constant, with no
196 leading zero required. I've changed the strtoul() call to an
197 atooi() call and removed the misleading leading zeroes on the
198 ASCII octal constants in the code and man pages. Also changed the
199 "Folder-Protect:" example in the man page to something more
200 interesting than a duplication of the default.
202 * When I added my --enable-masquerade option, you'll note that I
203 didn't make it --enable-nmh-masquerade. I find the --enable-nmh-*
204 options too wordy and I'm not sure why Richard went that route.
205 I've renamed them to just --enable-*, but the old versions will
206 still work as well (they just aren't advertised).
208 * Added a line to the "nmh configuration" output saying whether
211 * Added a new README.developers file. From the file:
213 This file is intended to provide a few tips for anyone doing
214 development on nmh. Developers who learn things "the hard
215 way" about the nmh codebase (as opposed to local info best
216 encoded in a comment) are encouraged to share their wisdom
219 Currently the topics are "autoconf files" and "directory structure".
221 Tue Mar 14 12:41:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
223 * Applied, after some finessing,
224 Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s --with-smtpservers patch:
226 Here's a patch that allows you to add
228 --with-smtpservers=<some.host.name>
230 to the ./configure command line to set the "servers: " line in
231 etc/mts.conf. Around here, we use "mailhost" so that all
232 machines in the current domain just talk to a central machine
233 and nothing else runs an MTA. Now, I can use
235 --with-smtpservers=mailhost
237 instead of having to remember to fix this by hand (and often
238 forgetting to do so!).
240 * Inspired by Simon's patch, added an --enable-masquerade option
241 to configure. It will set the "masquerade:" line of mts.conf.
242 You may specify a subset of the three types of masquerading, like
243 --enable-masquerade="draft_from mmailid", or leave off explicit
244 arguments to enable all three types.
246 * Alphabetized the --enable and --with options in configure.in and
247 INSTALL and added documentation of the two new options to the latter.
249 * Added new dependency for mts.conf: Makefile. If this isn't
250 done, then when you reconfigure nmh with new values for
251 --enable-masquerade or --with-smtpservers, you'll fail to get an
252 updated copy of mts.conf.
254 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtimep.lex patch:
256 It seems that some MUA's didn't handle y2k very well - ELM
257 seems to be one of them, and Ultrix's DXmail (based on MH!).
258 I've got a few emails this month that look like:
260 575 Jan 00 Xxxxxx Xxxx 3603 ...
262 22+ Jan 00 Xxx Xxxxx 1771 ...
264 The first has "15 Jan 100" as the date and the second has
265 "19 Jan 00" as the date. The following works around this so
266 that scan, show, sortm, etc work ok.
268 I put Simon's patch under the control of a new #define called
269 FIX_NON_Y2K_COMPLIANT_MUA_DATES. There's some commentary in
270 acconfig.h about when you might not want to #define it.
272 * Created new dtimep.c-lexed with Simon's change using dtimep.lex
273 lexed on Solaris 2.6. Added missing dependency in
274 zotnet/tws/Makefile.in for dtimep.c: dtimep.c-lexed.
276 * Added scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD format files.
278 Mon Mar 13 21:32:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
280 * Applied Sullivan N. Beck <sbeck@cise.ufl.edu>'s mhshow-suffix patch:
282 With the patch below, you can add lines like:
284 mhshow-suffix-application/msword: .doc
285 mhshow-suffix-application/PostScript: .ps
287 to the mhn.defaults file to append the given suffix to a
288 scratch file. This allows applications which require a
289 certain suffix to run properly.
291 * Removed -force_html from lynx entry in mhn.defaults.sh (I
292 believe older versions of lynx lack that option) and added
293 "mhshow-suffix-text/html: .html".
295 * Modified username_extension masquerading to only use the
296 extended address on generated [Resent-]From: lines and SMTP
297 envelope From:. With Neil's original implementation, nmh's global
298 idea of the username was changed, which would result in inc lying
299 and saying you had no new mail because it was looking for a
300 mailbox called, for instance, "dan-nmh" (where username was "dan"
301 and $USERNAME_EXTENSION was "-nmh").
303 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtime.c patch:
305 There's a wrap-around problem that affects the implementation
306 of Zeller's congruence in dtime.c. This causes the day-of-week
307 calculations to fail for dates after Feb 29, 2000 (probably up
308 until some year far in the future).
310 Mon Mar 06 12:20:20 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
312 * Applied Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s msh.c patch:
314 I finally tracked down the problem in msh that was causing
315 errors whenever I tried to examine a 'mmdf' style mailbox.
317 It turns out that not enough memory was being allocated with
318 calloc(), causing memory pointers to be overwritten and
321 Fri Mar 03 16:07:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
323 * Changed the new "plussed_user" option to mts.conf's
324 "masquerade:" to "username_extension" after getting feedback from
325 qmail users, who use '-' as a separator rather than '+'. Removed
326 checking of $USERPLUS variable. Now check $USERNAME_EXTENSION,
327 which needs to include the appropriate separator for your MTA
328 ('-', '+', or whatever) as its first character.
330 Thu Mar 02 23:04:30 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
332 * Added a new "boolean" type to mh.h and TRUE and FALSE constants.
334 * Added a note to DIFFERENCES stating that it's out-of-date
335 (Richard was the last one to update it) and that we should
336 consider only documenting incompatibilities with MH there.
338 * Implemented (and documented) a third kind of username
339 masquerading: "plussed user" masquerading. This one was suggested
340 by Neil Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>. It's based on sendmail's
341 "plussed user" feature, where mail sent to <user>+<string> will be
342 delivered to <user>. When it's enabled, it's controlled by the
343 $USERPLUS environment variable. How is it enabled? Well, that
346 * Renamed the "mmailid:" setting in mts.conf to "masquerade:", and
347 changed it so that rather than being a boolean, it can be set to
348 any combination of the three values "draft_from", "mmailid", and
349 "plussed_user". Thus it is now possible to enable the three types
350 of masquerading individually.
352 * Fixed a bug with "mmailid" masquerading (dating back to MH?)
353 where if it was turned on, ','s would no longer be considered
354 GECOS field delimiters.
356 Wed Mar 01 23:30:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
358 * Changed the GECOS-field '&' translation behavior to be
359 controlled by the BSD42 #define rather than GCOS_HACK, since it's
360 apparently always appropriate on OSes where BSD42 is #defined, and
361 never appropriate on any other OSes. Thanks to Kimmo Suominen for
362 responding to my "What is this code here for?" comment in mts.c
363 and explaining the feature.
365 Mon Feb 28 21:50:29 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
367 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3+dev (ideally this should be
368 done by whoever makes a release tar file, immediately after doing
371 * Applied Paul Fox <pgf-spam@foxharp.boston.ma.us>'s scansbr.c
372 patch, posted to comp.mail.mh, which he says prevents loss of mail
373 when inc'ing into a full filesystem.
375 * Changed "echo > stamp-h.in" in Makefile.in to "date > stamp-h.in"
376 so that stamp-h.in will be different each time configure.in and
377 related files are changed, making it easier to check it in (which
378 is necessary to prevent unnecessary autoconf calls).
380 * My declaration of initgroups() in slocal.c to eliminate the "no
381 prototype" warning wasn't portable (FreeBSD 3.[23] choked). Now
382 use AC_EGREP_HEADER to see where initgroups() is declared, if
385 Sun Feb 20 12:17:15 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
387 * Fix security hole in mhshowsbr.c which allowed untrusted shell
390 * Released nmh 1.0.3.
392 Thu Feb 10 10:54:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
394 * Oops. %-escapes on mhstore lines in mhn.defaults.sh should not
395 be surrounded by single quotes, as a shell is not spawned when
396 just saving files, and the filenames will end up with literal
397 quotes embedded in them.
399 Fri Feb 04 12:29:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
401 * Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
402 got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
403 the -help output. One theory is that they were making reference
404 to the fact that clearly you know about the -help option since
405 you're currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea
406 to overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
407 supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
410 The other theory is that because you can say something like
411 "mhstore -" and get "mhstore: - ambiguous. It matches" followed
412 by the same list of switches you get with -help, they were saying
413 you can "sorta" abbreviate "-help" as "-". You don't get the
414 "Usage:" string, though, so it's not really the same thing.
416 Thu Feb 03 17:52:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
418 * Applied wesley.craig@umich.edu's KPOP patches. According to him:
420 The following patch fixes a problem with requesting a
421 service key for a machine that has multiple 'A' records. It
422 also makes "-kpop" a command line option, for users who
423 would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".
425 Did no testing of the new features, as I don't have access to a
428 * Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
430 * Modified INSTALL and config.h.in to reflect the new -kpop feature.
432 Fri Jan 28 17:39:24 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
434 * All %-escapes in mhn.defaults that actually expand to something
435 should be surrounded by single quotes. Added quotes to the ones
436 in mhn.defaults.sh that were missing them.
438 * Added check for lynx to write mhshow-show-text/html line in
441 Thu Jan 27 12:22:25 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
443 * makedir() had multiple bugs dating back to MH. An octal
444 constant was apparently being interpreted as decimal, resulting in
445 directories with no user read or execute permissions, making
446 nested directory creation fail. And there wasn't even an
447 _attempt_ to set desired permissions (e.g. from "Folder-Protect:"
448 in .mh_profile) on the outer directories of a nested directory.
450 * A second `make install' would always fail because the check for
451 whether mh_profile.5 existed was written incorrectly.
453 Wed Jan 26 02:22:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
455 * Added documentation on both types of masquerading to post's man
458 Tue Jan 25 22:58:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
460 * Doug's portability fix of my setgid inc autodetection had a
461 caching bug -- if you re-ran configure, uip/Makefile would be
462 corrupted, and installation would bomb out on OSes where inc needs
465 * Implemented a new kind of email address masquerading. Usually,
466 when a user writes a custom "From:" header in a draft, nmh uses it
467 rather than generating one. However, the user's true address is
468 used in the SMTP envelope "From:" and is revealed in the "Sender:"
469 header. Now, when mmailid is set to non-zero, the envelope
470 "From:" uses the address specified in the draft "From:" header,
471 and there is no "Sender:" header. This is useful when sending on
472 behalf of a remote POP3 account or when remote mail robots
473 incorrectly use the envelope "From:" in preference to the body
474 "From:". This processing has only been implemented for post, not
475 for the undocumented spost (which was already missing some "From:"
476 processing that post has).
478 Mon Jan 24 22:26:06 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
480 * Got rid of the rest of the gcc -Wall warnings that I didn't have
481 time for on 1999-07-15 (and, it would seem, some new ones people
482 introduced since then). The primary ones were the warnings that
483 default prototypes were being used for [v]snprintf() and
484 str[n]casecmp(). As of right now, there are _no_ compilation
485 warnings except on dtimep.c-lexed (at least under AIX 4.1.5 and
488 Sun Jan 2 23:42:18 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
490 * Move mhtest from bindir to libdir.
492 * Move sendfiles from libdir to bindir.
494 * Updated sendfiles manpage to reflect this change.
496 * Added documentation for -build and -file switches to repl and
497 forw manpages (patch from Peter Maydell).
499 * Fixed interaction between specifying -cc in profile and -group on
502 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
504 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
505 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
506 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
509 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
511 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
512 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
513 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
514 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
515 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
516 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).
518 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
520 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
522 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
524 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
525 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
526 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
527 caught again. This works for now.
529 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
531 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
533 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
534 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
536 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
538 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
539 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
541 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
543 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
545 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
547 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
548 changes. Both need more cleanup.
550 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
552 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
553 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
554 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
555 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
556 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
559 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
561 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
562 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
563 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
565 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
566 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
569 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
571 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
572 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
573 to a directory on another device with more free space.
575 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
577 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
578 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
580 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
582 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
585 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
586 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
588 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
589 macros, regardless of platform.
591 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
592 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
594 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
595 with x-conversions=gzip.
597 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
599 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
602 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
603 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
604 implicit definition of ioctl().
606 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
607 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
608 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
609 want to mess with them.
611 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
613 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
614 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
616 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
617 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
619 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
620 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
621 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
623 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
624 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
625 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
627 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
630 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
633 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
634 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
637 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
638 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
641 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
642 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
646 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
648 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
649 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
650 preventing compilation on at least linux.
652 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
653 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
655 Thu Sep 09 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
657 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
659 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
660 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
661 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
662 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
664 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
665 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
667 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
669 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
671 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
673 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
674 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
676 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
678 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
679 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
681 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
682 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
683 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
684 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
686 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
687 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
689 Sat Jun 09 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
691 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
692 substitute it for mktemp if available.
694 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
696 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
697 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
700 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
702 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
704 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
706 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
707 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
709 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
710 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
711 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
713 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
714 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
715 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
717 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
718 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
719 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
721 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
722 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
725 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
726 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
728 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
729 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
731 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
734 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
735 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
736 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
738 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
739 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
741 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
742 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
743 <elleron@servtech.com>.
745 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
746 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
749 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
750 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
752 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
753 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
754 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
755 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
757 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
758 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
760 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
764 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
765 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
766 would not be changed.
768 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
769 one from the Apache web server.
771 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
772 (this should have been done a long time ago).
774 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
775 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
776 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
778 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
780 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
782 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
783 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
786 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
787 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
788 removes a bad race condition.
790 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
793 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
794 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
795 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
797 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
798 sequence information.
800 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
801 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
803 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
806 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
809 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
811 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
812 interpret 034 as octal.
814 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
816 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
817 mhstore, and mhbuild.
819 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
820 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
822 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
823 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
825 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
826 in the c_cefile structure when building.
828 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
829 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
831 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
832 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
833 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
835 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
836 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
837 and mhshow. Updated man pages
839 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
841 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
843 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
844 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
847 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
849 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
850 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
852 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
853 header field information.
855 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
856 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
858 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
859 values when parsing a content.
861 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
862 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
864 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
865 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
867 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
868 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
870 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
871 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
873 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
875 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
877 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
879 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
881 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
882 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
885 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
886 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
888 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
889 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
890 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
891 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
892 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
893 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
896 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
898 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
899 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
900 buffer length checks for this parameter.
902 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
903 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
905 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
907 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
908 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
909 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
910 of the limits on the length of command lines.
912 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
913 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
916 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
917 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
918 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
919 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
922 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
926 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
927 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
929 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
930 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
931 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
932 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
935 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
936 mhbuild returns an error.
938 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
939 rename the draft file.
941 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
942 use a global variable.
944 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
945 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
947 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
948 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
950 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
951 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
952 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
954 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
955 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
957 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
958 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
961 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
962 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
965 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
966 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
968 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
969 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
970 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
972 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
973 to new function output_content_folder.
975 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
976 new function output_content_file.
978 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
979 to new function parse_format_string.
981 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
982 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
983 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
984 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
986 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
987 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
988 message/external file from ftp.
990 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
991 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
992 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
994 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
995 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
998 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
1001 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
1002 new file mhstoresbr.c
1004 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
1007 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
1008 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
1010 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
1011 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
1013 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
1014 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
1015 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
1017 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
1019 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
1021 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
1022 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
1025 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
1026 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
1028 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
1031 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
1033 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1035 * Released nmh-0.26.
1037 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
1038 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
1039 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
1040 is still the same (dashstuffing).
1042 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
1043 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
1044 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
1045 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
1046 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
1048 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
1049 But it is not on by default.
1051 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
1052 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
1054 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
1056 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
1058 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
1060 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
1062 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
1063 number of the "cur" message when packing.
1065 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1067 * Released nmh-0.25.
1069 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
1070 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
1071 uses the original name of the library.
1073 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
1074 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
1077 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
1078 list_content and list_debug.
1080 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
1082 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
1083 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.
1085 1998-02-27 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1087 * Released nmh-0.24.
1089 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
1091 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
1092 are given, that order doesn't matter.
1094 * Fix bug in seq_list.c when realloc'ing for
1095 large sequence line.
1097 1998-02-23 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1099 * Released nmh-0.23.
1101 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
1103 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
1104 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan
1105 content, decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary
1106 string). I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
1108 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
1109 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
1112 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
1114 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
1116 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
1118 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
1119 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
1121 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
1122 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.
1124 * Add note to MACHINES file that on Linux, configure
1125 doesn't find the functions sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
1127 * Fix configuration for machines that don't have (or find)
1128 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
1130 1998-02-11 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1132 * Released nmh-0.22.
1134 * Add a configure check for sigsetjmp. Add some conditional
1135 #define's in h/signals.h in case it's not found.
1137 * Added additional notes about -auto switch in mhn man page.
1139 * Added note about MM_CHARSET environment variable to
1140 mh-profile(5) man page.
1142 * Fix signal problem in mhn.c (change setjmp/longjmp to
1143 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp).
1145 1998-02-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1147 * Released nmh-0.22-pre1.
1149 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
1150 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
1152 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
1154 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
1155 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
1156 entry point for parsing MIME files.
1158 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
1159 source message on the standard input.
1161 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
1163 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
1164 rather than -rfc934mode.
1166 * Fix mhbuild, so that Content-Description and RFC-822 comments
1167 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
1170 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
1171 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).
1173 * Restore HP specific code to zotnet/tws/lexstring.c. Apparently
1176 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1178 * Released nmh-0.21.
1180 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
1181 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.
1183 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what transfer
1186 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what character set
1187 to use for text contents.
1189 * Removed old hpux specific code from zotnet/tws/lexstring.c
1191 1998-02-02 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1193 * Released nmh-0.21-pre2.
1195 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
1197 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
1198 header fields as per RFC-2047.
1200 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
1201 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
1202 spaces between encoded word are.
1204 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
1206 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
1207 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
1209 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
1210 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
1211 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
1213 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
1215 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
1216 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
1218 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.
1220 * Added support for %(decode) to fmtdump.c.
1222 * check_charset() now accepts US-ASCII as a subset of any
1223 ISO-8859-X character set.
1225 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
1228 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
1229 permissions, not write permissions.
1231 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
1232 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
1234 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
1237 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1239 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
1241 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
1242 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
1244 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
1245 message contains valid character set.
1247 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
1248 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
1250 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
1251 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
1253 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
1254 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
1255 between an encoded word and normal text.
1257 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
1258 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
1260 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
1261 as a RFC-2047 header field.
1263 * The command install-mh now recognizes the switches -version
1266 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
1267 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
1270 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
1271 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
1273 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
1274 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
1276 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
1278 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1280 * Released nmh-0.20.
1282 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
1284 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.
1286 * Changed the default format file for mhl (mhl.format) to
1287 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
1288 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
1290 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
1291 and the To: line was missing.
1293 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
1295 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1297 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
1299 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
1300 watch the POP transaction.
1302 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
1303 first, and use it if available.
1305 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
1306 first, and use it if available.
1308 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1310 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
1312 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
1313 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
1314 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
1317 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
1318 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
1319 returns the state FLDPLUS.
1321 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
1322 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
1325 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
1327 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
1328 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
1330 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
1332 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
1333 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
1335 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
1336 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
1337 message to which you are replying.
1339 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
1340 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
1341 making group replies.
1343 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
1345 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1347 * Released nmh-0.19.
1349 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
1350 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
1352 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
1353 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
1354 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
1355 to the end of the man page.
1357 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
1358 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
1359 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
1360 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
1361 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
1362 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
1364 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
1367 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
1368 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
1369 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
1371 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
1372 the next available number above the message number you wish
1375 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
1376 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
1378 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
1379 file sbr/seq_print.c
1381 * flist will now update the current folder.
1383 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
1384 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
1385 but now undocumented.
1387 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
1390 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
1391 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
1393 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
1395 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
1396 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
1398 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1400 * Released nmh-0.18.
1402 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
1403 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
1404 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
1406 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
1407 retains the public/private status of sequences.
1409 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
1410 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
1411 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
1412 previous public/private status.
1414 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
1417 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
1420 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
1421 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
1422 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
1424 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
1425 take option to determine whether it should get current
1426 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
1427 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
1429 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
1431 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
1432 wait for stopped processes.
1434 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
1435 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
1437 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1439 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
1441 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
1442 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
1444 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
1445 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
1447 * Change the way that memory for message status is
1448 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
1449 the folder/message structure. This required changing
1450 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
1452 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
1455 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
1458 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
1460 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
1461 the debugging output.
1463 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
1464 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
1466 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1468 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
1470 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
1471 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
1473 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
1475 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
1476 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
1477 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
1478 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
1479 in the given sequence.
1481 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
1482 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
1483 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
1484 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
1485 subdirectories of a given directory.
1487 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
1488 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
1489 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
1491 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
1492 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
1494 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
1496 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
1499 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
1500 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
1501 fields are now calculated at runtime.
1503 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
1504 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
1505 are calculated at runtime.
1507 Sun Nov 30 19:14:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1509 * Released nmh-0.18-pre2.
1511 * Add paragraph to man page for install-mh and to INSTALL file
1512 about checking for global mh.profile.
1514 * Renamed m_find() to context_find().
1515 Renamed m_replace() to context_replace().
1516 Renamed m_delete() to context_del().
1517 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
1518 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
1519 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
1521 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
1522 adding message to folder itself.
1524 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
1525 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
1526 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
1529 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
1530 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
1533 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
1534 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
1535 is the same as the direct smtp code).
1537 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
1538 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
1540 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
1541 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
1542 code to use it yet).
1544 Thu Nov 13 18:42:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1546 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.
1548 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never
1549 called with a value larger than 30 mintues.
1551 * Fixed race condition in rmm and refile, so that
1552 context is updated before external rmmproc is called.
1554 * Removed all the OVERHEAD code.
1556 * Move code to add message to folder from refile.c
1559 Fri Jul 25 19:39:29 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1561 * Did some rearranging of the internals of inc.c.
1563 * Make -inplace the default for anno, forw, dist, and repl.
1565 * Changed --enable-smtp to --with-mts={smtp,sendmail}
1567 * Created new directory mts/sendmail for direct sendmail
1568 interface (although it currently still uses SMTP).
1570 * Removed all the TMA (trusted mail agent) code
1572 * Removed all the TTYD (terminal access daemon) code
1574 * Removed all the MF (uucp filtering) code.
1576 * Removed all the code for BERK.
1578 * Removed all the code for stand-alone delivery (MHMTS).
1580 * Split the file mts/sendmail/smail.c into sendmail.c and
1581 smtp.c. Changed the name of the directory to mts/smtp.
1583 * Changed autoconf to use @sysconfdir@ for location of
1584 configuration files.
1586 * Changed #define in mhn.c from FTP to BUILTIN_FTP.
1588 Mon Jul 21 03:22:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1590 * Released nmh-0.17.
1592 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
1594 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
1595 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
1597 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
1600 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
1601 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
1603 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
1604 number of refiled message.
1606 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
1608 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
1609 for return value of wait().
1611 * Change configure to also check /bin for "more".
1613 Sat Jul 12 00:02:23 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1615 * Released nmh-0.16.
1617 Mon Jun 23 20:13:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1619 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
1621 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
1622 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
1623 deal with binary messages, yet).
1625 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
1627 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
1629 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
1630 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
1631 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
1632 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
1633 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
1634 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
1636 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
1637 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
1639 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
1640 From MH-6.8.4 patch.
1642 * Fix double free of ctinfo in user_content when using
1643 #forw with single message. From John MacMillan (and
1646 * Changed -mhnproc switch for show, to -showmimeproc.
1648 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".
1650 * Added "mime" option to "whatnow", which calls the program
1651 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
1654 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
1657 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
1659 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
1660 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
1661 which used unsigned chars by default.
1663 Sat Jun 21 01:21:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1665 * Released nmh-0.15.
1667 * Added new form "scan.unseen" to distribution. It marks messages
1668 which are in any sequence in Unseen-Sequence.

1672 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
1674 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
1677 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
1678 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
1679 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
1681 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
1682 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
1684 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
1686 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
1687 they conflict with defines on AIX.
1689 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
1690 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
1691 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
1692 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
1694 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
1695 and put in own subroutine.
1697 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
1698 and put in own subroutine.
1700 * Moved code to remove messages from folder into own
1701 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and
1702 refile.c to use new routine.
1704 Fri May 16 06:09:31 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1706 * Renamed m_seqok to seq_nameok.
1708 * Changed m_setunseen, msh, mshcmds, flist, and scan to use
1711 * Changed m_seqflag to return the number of a sequence rather
1712 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
1713 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
1715 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
1718 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before
1719 adding message to sequence.
1721 * Renamed function m_setvis to m_setunseen, and renamed
1722 corresponding file in sbr.
1724 * Renamed function m_setseq to m_setprev, and renamed corresponding
1727 * Changed mark.c and pick.c to use m_seqaddsel and m_seqdelsel.
1729 * Added new function m_seqdelsel to m_seqdel.c, which deletes
1730 all selected messages from a sequence.
1732 * Added new function m_seqaddsel to m_seqadd.c, which adds all
1733 selected messages to a sequence.
1735 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,
1738 Thu May 15 00:53:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1740 * Renamed function pack_folder to m_packfolder, and moved it
1741 from uip/folder.c into its own file sbr/m_packfolder.c
1743 Wed May 14 23:38:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1745 * Changed function m_gmsg to m_readfolder. Renamed file
1746 sbr/m_gmsg.c to sbr/m_readfolder.c.
1748 Mon May 5 19:57:11 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1750 * Expanded rcvtty man page, and added small patch from
1751 MH-6.8.4 distribution.

1755 * Released nmh-0.14.
1757 * Comment out configure test and code for tgetent to allocate its
1758 own termcap buffer when passed a NULL argument.
1760 Sat Apr 26 03:46:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1762 * Added new options `-checkmime', `-nocheckmime', and `-mhnproc'
1763 to show. Restructured code to handle options to various
1764 `procs' better. Deprecated `-noshowproc' option and NOMHNPROC
1765 environment variable.
1767 * Added new man page `mh-draft' which documents the
1768 draft folder facility in nmh.
1770 * Renamed fmtsbr.h to fmt_scan.h. Renamed fmtcompile.h
1773 * split fmtsbr.c into fmt_scan.c and fmt_new.c. Renamed

1777 * `send -help' wasn't showing the -(no)mime and -split
1780 Fri Apr 25 02:50:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1782 * Released nmh-0.13.
1784 * Changed mhpath so it doesn't abort if a message sequence
1785 such as "mhpath all" expands to more than 1000 messages.
1786 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
1787 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
1790 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
1791 that checks for folder information, and prints it.

1829 will suppress the display of the message header.
1831 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
1833 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c

1846 not sent. Need to use -body "" to send empty messages.
1848 * zotnet/mts/mts.c : compare character with '\0', not NULL.
1850 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
1852 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
1853 folder/message structure when done with folder.
1855 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is
1856 defined even if message is missing "From " line.

1870 The "From " line is now removed from all messages.
1872 * inc now saves the date from the "From " envelope in the
1873 Delivery-Date header for all messages.
1875 * sbr/m_getfld.c: Clean up processing of Return-Path and

1880 * client.c: cast iaddr to int before comparing return value
1881 of inet_addr with NOTOK.
1883 Tue Mar 11 04:38:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1885 * Grep test for signal names was failing on some OS'es because

1915 * rcvtty.c : Changed to use #define UTMP_FILE (if exists) rather
1916 than hard coded "/etc/utmp".
1918 * Released nmh-0.08.
1920 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
1921 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of
1922 locking database itself.
1924 Thu Feb 27 05:28:09 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1926 * Added slocal action `mmdf' to deliver to a file in mmdf format.
1928 * Changed the slocal actions `file' and `>' to always deliver in
1929 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
1932 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
1933 rather than mmdf format.
1935 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
1936 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
1937 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
1938 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
1940 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
1942 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1944 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
1947 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
1948 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
1949 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
1951 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
1952 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
1953 rcvpack so you can choose the preferred format.
1955 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1957 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
1958 can still easily change this in config.h).
1960 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
1961 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
1962 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
1964 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1966 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather

1981 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
1983 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
1984 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
1987 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
1988 built-in FTP client in mhn.

2001 * Released nmh-0.06.
2003 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
2004 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
2006 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
2007 many such machines around anymore.
2009 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
2010 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
2012 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
2013 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
2015 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2017 * Check lex generated file in zotnet/tws and use
2018 pre-generated version if necessary.
2020 * Released nmh-0.05.
2022 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
2023 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
2024 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
2025 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
2027 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
2028 be linked in one pass.
2030 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2032 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
2033 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
2035 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2037 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
2039 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2041 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
2042 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
2043 become the current folder.
2045 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2047 * Released nmh-0.04.
2049 * Define ospeed and PC in termsbr.c is OS doesn't have
2052 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2054 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
2055 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
2056 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
2058 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2060 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
2061 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
2063 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2065 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
2066 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
2069 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
2070 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
2072 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2074 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
2075 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
2076 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
2077 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
2078 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
2079 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
2081 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2083 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
2084 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
2086 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
2087 a file (currently need to specify full path).
2089 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2091 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
2092 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
2094 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2096 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
2097 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
2098 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
2100 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2102 * Released nmh-0.03.
2104 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
2105 .mh_sequence file existed.
2107 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
2108 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
2110 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
2111 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
2114 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2116 * Changed flist option -unseen to -[no]all. Cleaned up
2119 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2121 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
2122 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
2123 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
2125 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2127 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
2128 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
2129 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
2131 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2133 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL
2134 and allocate its own buffer. Borrowed from zsh.
2136 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
2138 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2140 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
2141 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
2142 directory from where the source code is located.
2144 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2146 * Released nmh-0.02.
2148 Wed Jan 1 17:41:52 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

2153 Tue Dec 31 03:07:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2155 * Changed code to use strerror, rather than using sys_errlist
2156 and sys_nerr directly.

2160 * -compat switch from install-mh removed.
2162 * Changed the default POP port from "pop" to "pop3".
2164 Sat Dec 28 13:25:05 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2166 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
2167 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
2168 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
2169 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
2170 rather than in script.
2172 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2174 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
2176 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with
2177 macro defined on Solaris.
2179 Thu Dec 26 02:50:15 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2181 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
2182 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
2184 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
2185 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
2186 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
2187 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
2190 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2192 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
2193 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.
2195 * Fixed configure test so that termcap variable ospeed is
2198 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2200 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
2202 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included
2203 in mhn.c. Changed md5 to use memset and memcpy.
2205 Fri Dec 20 02:29:37 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2207 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
2208 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
2210 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2212 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
2213 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
2214 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
2215 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
2216 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
2217 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
2219 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2221 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
2223 * Released nmh-0.01.
2225 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
2226 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
2227 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
2230 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2232 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
2235 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2237 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
2238 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
2240 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2242 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
2243 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
2244 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
2245 script to find_program.
2247 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2249 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
2250 speed up -recurse option.
2252 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
2253 yet, but it compiles :-)
2255 * Changed default location for install to
2256 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
2257 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
2258 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
2261 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
2262 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
2263 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
