1 Sun May 28 14:58:49 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
3 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to uip/scansbr.c for more
4 checks for write failures.
5 * Unlink temporary file properly in uip/rcvtty.c.
6 * Moved viamail from bindir to libdir.
7 * Changed sendfiles into sendfiles.in, so that path to viamail
9 * Added gzip support to sendfiles.
10 * Added References header to replcomps and replgroupcomps.
12 Sun May 28 14:39:31 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
14 * Fixed m_getfld bug which caused segmentation faults when
15 incorporating messages which ended in multiple linefeeds crossing
18 Fri May 26 13:21:59 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
20 * msh has been unable to show MIME messages ever since 1.0. Alec
21 Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu> tracked down the problem to the
22 -show flag being passed to mhshow. mhshow is equivalent to the
23 old mhn -show, so we don't need the -show anymore. Removed it.
25 Fri May 12 02:51:21 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
27 * zotnet/bboards is not longer built by default. Goal is to move
28 the assorted functions in zotnet into sbr or some more logical
31 * Moved zotnet/mf to sbr, and changed mf.h references accordingly,
34 Thu May 11 02:21:34 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
36 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that both SRCS and OBJS aren't
37 seperately and redundantly defined, but so that OBJS is a
38 pattern-substituted version of SRCS with suffix .c -> .o. This
39 should make maintainability easier.
41 * Added section to MACHINES indicating what platforms nmh is known
42 to compile and work on, just to give users peace of mind, or
43 something. This is by no means complete or exhaustive, so add
44 whatever you know works.
46 Tue May 09 20:38:04 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
48 * Alphabetized Shantonu's $pop_kinds output on configure's "pop is
49 enabled" line. If POP3 is the only kind of POP enabled, say so,
50 rather than just saying "yes" (which is ambiguous).
52 * Fixed four warnings in Shantonu's new getpass.c. Needed to
53 #include <stdlib.h> for calloc(), <unistd.h> for ttyname(), and
54 "h/mh.h" for adios(). Also changed ch from char to int to get rid
55 of "comparison is always 1 due to limited range of data type" on EOF.
57 * Added steps to README.developers saying to change the version
58 number to X.Y.Z+dev. Did a little rearranging and changed the FTP
59 dir from /home/ftp to /var/ftp to reflect Doug's new machine.
61 * Changed configure.in to use gcc -Wall even without
62 --enable-debug, to prevent developers compiling optimized from
63 introducing warnings, and to give end-users a warm, fuzzy feeling
64 as they (hopefully) see no warnings come out (except perhaps on
65 the lex output file) even with -Wall.
67 * Renamed getpass() to nmh_getpass() since the prototype for
68 getpass() varies from OS to OS, and we want to _always_ use our
69 version of the function. Fixed all the callers to use
70 nmh_getpass() and added it to prototypes.h. Semi-arbitrarily
71 upped MAX_PASSWORD_LEN from 128 to 256. buf was being calloc()'d
72 and the memory leaked -- should have just been declared as static
73 char array. Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the
74 copyright message, as this version has been changed significantly
77 * Added "nmh-local functions to use in preference to OS versions"
78 section to README.developers (currently just says to use
79 nmh_getpass() instead of system getpass()).
81 * Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the copyright message
84 * Added mts.conf.5 page per Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s
87 This happens on solaris:
90 windex entry incorrect: mts.conf(5) not found.
91 No manual entry for mts.conf.
95 % echo ".so man5/mh-tailor.5" > mts.conf.5
97 done in the man5 directory. We need to add 'mts.conf.5' as a
98 reference sourcing mh-tailor.5.
100 Mon May 08 23:51:55 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
102 * Doug informed me that the way I had restored the "lost" version
103 histories was wrong, because `cvs checkout's of old versions of
104 nmh wouldn't work properly. It occurs to me that this could be
105 fixed by simply deleting those tags in the new-location *,v files,
106 but oh well. I'm putting everything back to the way Doug
107 originally had it. To get the old version history for a file that
108 used to be in the top directory, you'll need to "blindly" do a
109 `cvs log' there (even though you won't have a local copy of the
110 file in that directory). `cvs diff' will no longer be able to
111 diff pre-move versions vs. post-move versions -- you'll have to do
112 a lot of manual gyrations with `cvs checkout' and then use `diff'.
114 * I had alphabetized the --configure options in the --help output
115 awhile back, but Shantonu added --enable-apop just under
116 --enable-pop. Put it in alphabetical order and clarified what
117 --enable-apop does vs. --enable-pop and --with-krb4. Also changed
118 --with-mts help line from "mail transport agent" to "mail
119 transport agent/service" so the 's' in "mts" doesn't seem to come
122 * Added two steps to "releasing nmh" in README.developers. After
123 making the tarball, it's a good idea to diff the tree vs. the CVS
124 tree to make sure no files got left out, and then to chown the
125 files so that they're owned by root, preventing a Trojaning attack
126 by a malicious remote user with a UID matching yours.
128 * Changed DIFFERENCES to say that RPOP is not currently supported
129 rather than implying it by saying that APOP, KPOP, and POP[3] are.
131 Sun May 07 18:16:43 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
133 * Imported NetBSD version of getpass() and made extensive
134 revisions for compatibility with programs that pipe the password
135 to stdin, such as exmh.
137 * Removed tests for system ruserpass() which sometimes gave
138 phantom positive results. Also, bext to use internal functions if
139 we ever want to change .netrc format to something else, or access
142 Sat May 06 08:28:09 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
144 * Restored lost version histories for those moved files by doing a
145 manual `mv' in the CVSROOT on mhost. CVS badly needs a `cvs mv'
146 command so that you can move files (without having physical access
147 to the CVSROOT) without losing versioning. Put MACHINES back at
148 the top level as it needs to be read before building. Fixed DIST
149 variable in {.,docs}/Makefile.in to reflect that and to add
150 missing entry for "INSTALL" file.
152 Sat May 06 13:13:07 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
154 * Re-cleaned up nmh documentation (by moving things to docs
155 subdir) and modified Makefile & configure.in to handle the change.
157 Mon Apr 17 21:28:40 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
159 * Scott Blachowicz pointed out that the configure --help output
160 for --enable-masquerade was misleading. Clarified.
162 Mon Apr 17 19:01:00 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
164 * APOP support can be compiled in to inc and msgchk using
167 * To access an APOP host, specify -apop on the command line
168 along with any -host or -user option.
170 Fri Apr 14 23:10:44 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
172 * Upped the version number to 1.0.4+dev until the next nmh release.
174 * Added a "releasing nmh" section to README.developers, while the
175 process was fresh in my mind.
177 Fri Apr 14 18:21:34 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
179 * Added new files README.developers, ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6, and
180 ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html to DIST target in Makefile.in.
182 * Released nmh-1.0.4.
184 Tue Apr 11 21:37:03 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
186 * Applied Brian Campbell <bacam@tardis.ed.ac.uk>'s mhn.defaults.sh
189 It appears that there shouldn't be quotes around the %s in the
190 iso-8859-1 charset entry; xterm passes the remaining arguments
191 to the program, quoting them means that xterm thinks they're
192 part of the program's name.
194 This %s isn't the same as the "Insert content subtype" one from
195 mhshow-show-* -- it doesn't come from MIME headers and is safe not
198 Sun Apr 09 13:03:59 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
200 * added check in fmt_compile() to handle a single-character
201 format string. fmt_compile() depends on having an array of
202 format characters with an empty item at the end. A
203 single-character format would cause programs using this
204 function to segfault because the algorithm used to decide on
205 the length of the array mistakenly created a single-item array
206 when the format string was one character. This eventually
207 caused problems when the program attempted to test item+1
210 Thu Apr 06 21:53:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
212 * Richard Coleman threw out a lot of old MH-specific files in nmh.
213 Much of the stuff, indeed, is not worth saving, but there are
214 nuggets that are very worthwhile, and should probably be added
215 back in. Most important, IMHO, are the MH change logs, as they
216 can help answer questions like "Why is this code like this?" or
217 "How long has this been broken?" or "What was this ever used for?"
219 I've added a new file to the nmh tree called
220 ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6. It's cobbled together from the
221 mh-6.8.4/papers/mh*/MHCHANGES files. I've re-ordered the entries
222 to go from newest at the top to oldest at the bottom to match the
223 ChangeLog convention. Unfortunately there are no change logs for
224 versions of MH prior to 3 in the MH tar files available at
225 <ftp://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/mh>. Also, it appears to me that there
226 are MH-6.6 changes that aren't documented in the logs.
228 I've also added ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html. This is
229 based on mh-6.8.4/papers/changes/mh-changes.ms. The nroff format
230 and its "catman"-type output are a pain to deal with, but I was
231 loath to throw away the formatting, so I converted the file to
232 HTML. The only actual markup in the body are the "<B>" and "<U>"
233 tags, and "<" and ">" instead of '<' and '>', so it's quite
234 doable to view the file in plain ASCII mode as well. Note that
235 some of the changes this file documents as having been made in
236 MH-6.8.4 may not be present in nmh -- Richard started with 6.8.3
237 and later put in certain 6.8.4 stuff.
239 Wed Apr 05 21:09:28 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
241 * Applied Eric Schnoebelen <eric@cirr.com>'s mhshowsbr.c patch
242 fixing apparent bugs in Dan Winship's new security quoting code:
244 Since upgrading, I've been getting the following errors
245 while attempting to process some MIME messages:
247 (1) Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
252 (2) line 1/10 (END)Segmentation fault (core dumped)
254 (2) appears to be due to the testing of an unset pointer in
255 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux(). (1) appears to be caused by
256 mis-quoting a filename being handed to the shell in
257 mhshowsbr.c:show_content_aux().
259 Resolving the pointer reference issue in
260 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux() turned up a similar mis-quoting
261 problem in the routine.
263 Tue Mar 28 16:17:39 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
265 * Applied Todd.Miller@courtesan.com's patch to dropsbr.c to
266 prevent core dumping on packf. Here's the note from his message:
268 Since sizeof(buffer) == sizeof(tmpbuffer) packf will dump
269 core on a file w/o a From line with a line >= BUFSIZ.
270 I noticed this because I had a junk file in my mail
273 Fri Mar 17 11:59:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
275 * wesley.craig@umich.edu did not document his previous KPOP patch,
276 so I did so, and asked him to check what I wrote. Unfortunately
277 he didn't notice my misunderstanding of his patch. I wrote that
278 if you #define POPSERVICE "kpop", inc and msgchk will use KPOP
279 exclusively, but if you leave it as "pop3", you can use Wesley's
280 new -kpop switch on a given invocation. Instead, however, -kpop
281 turned out to be necessary on every invocation, and a KPOP user
282 complained. Applied Wesley's new patch, which makes things work
283 like I thought his original patch did. After that, did one more
284 clarifying pass to the documentation in inc.man and msgchk.man.
286 Wed Mar 15 18:45:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
288 * When I fixed the long-standing makedir() bugs in January, I had
289 the code call strtoul(..., 0), which I believed to be safe as all
290 modes specified as ASCII constants in the nmh code started with a
291 leading zero (signifying octal), which I did as it would work if
292 internal constants were ever changed to hex. Unfortunately I was
293 unaware of the "Folder-Protect:" .mh_profile entry, which
294 mh-profile.man documents as an octal-only constant, with no
295 leading zero required. I've changed the strtoul() call to an
296 atooi() call and removed the misleading leading zeroes on the
297 ASCII octal constants in the code and man pages. Also changed the
298 "Folder-Protect:" example in the man page to something more
299 interesting than a duplication of the default.
301 * When I added my --enable-masquerade option, you'll note that I
302 didn't make it --enable-nmh-masquerade. I find the --enable-nmh-*
303 options too wordy and I'm not sure why Richard went that route.
304 I've renamed them to just --enable-*, but the old versions will
305 still work as well (they just aren't advertised).
307 * Added a line to the "nmh configuration" output saying whether
310 * Added a new README.developers file. From the file:
312 This file is intended to provide a few tips for anyone doing
313 development on nmh. Developers who learn things "the hard
314 way" about the nmh codebase (as opposed to local info best
315 encoded in a comment) are encouraged to share their wisdom
318 Currently the topics are "autoconf files" and "directory structure".
320 Tue Mar 14 12:41:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
322 * Applied, after some finessing,
323 Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s --with-smtpservers patch:
325 Here's a patch that allows you to add
327 --with-smtpservers=<some.host.name>
329 to the ./configure command line to set the "servers: " line in
330 etc/mts.conf. Around here, we use "mailhost" so that all
331 machines in the current domain just talk to a central machine
332 and nothing else runs an MTA. Now, I can use
334 --with-smtpservers=mailhost
336 instead of having to remember to fix this by hand (and often
337 forgetting to do so!).
339 * Inspired by Simon's patch, added an --enable-masquerade option
340 to configure. It will set the "masquerade:" line of mts.conf.
341 You may specify a subset of the three types of masquerading, like
342 --enable-masquerade="draft_from mmailid", or leave off explicit
343 arguments to enable all three types.
345 * Alphabetized the --enable and --with options in configure.in and
346 INSTALL and added documentation of the two new options to the latter.
348 * Added new dependency for mts.conf: Makefile. If this isn't
349 done, then when you reconfigure nmh with new values for
350 --enable-masquerade or --with-smtpservers, you'll fail to get an
351 updated copy of mts.conf.
353 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtimep.lex patch:
355 It seems that some MUA's didn't handle y2k very well - ELM
356 seems to be one of them, and Ultrix's DXmail (based on MH!).
357 I've got a few emails this month that look like:
359 575 Jan 00 Xxxxxx Xxxx 3603 ...
361 22+ Jan 00 Xxx Xxxxx 1771 ...
363 The first has "15 Jan 100" as the date and the second has
364 "19 Jan 00" as the date. The following works around this so
365 that scan, show, sortm, etc work ok.
367 I put Simon's patch under the control of a new #define called
368 FIX_NON_Y2K_COMPLIANT_MUA_DATES. There's some commentary in
369 acconfig.h about when you might not want to #define it.
371 * Created new dtimep.c-lexed with Simon's change using dtimep.lex
372 lexed on Solaris 2.6. Added missing dependency in
373 zotnet/tws/Makefile.in for dtimep.c: dtimep.c-lexed.
375 * Added scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD format files.
377 Mon Mar 13 21:32:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
379 * Applied Sullivan N. Beck <sbeck@cise.ufl.edu>'s mhshow-suffix patch:
381 With the patch below, you can add lines like:
383 mhshow-suffix-application/msword: .doc
384 mhshow-suffix-application/PostScript: .ps
386 to the mhn.defaults file to append the given suffix to a
387 scratch file. This allows applications which require a
388 certain suffix to run properly.
390 * Removed -force_html from lynx entry in mhn.defaults.sh (I
391 believe older versions of lynx lack that option) and added
392 "mhshow-suffix-text/html: .html".
394 * Modified username_extension masquerading to only use the
395 extended address on generated [Resent-]From: lines and SMTP
396 envelope From:. With Neil's original implementation, nmh's global
397 idea of the username was changed, which would result in inc lying
398 and saying you had no new mail because it was looking for a
399 mailbox called, for instance, "dan-nmh" (where username was "dan"
400 and $USERNAME_EXTENSION was "-nmh").
402 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtime.c patch:
404 There's a wrap-around problem that affects the implementation
405 of Zeller's congruence in dtime.c. This causes the day-of-week
406 calculations to fail for dates after Feb 29, 2000 (probably up
407 until some year far in the future).
409 Mon Mar 06 12:20:20 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
411 * Applied Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s msh.c patch:
413 I finally tracked down the problem in msh that was causing
414 errors whenever I tried to examine a 'mmdf' style mailbox.
416 It turns out that not enough memory was being allocated with
417 calloc(), causing memory pointers to be overwritten and
420 Fri Mar 03 16:07:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
422 * Changed the new "plussed_user" option to mts.conf's
423 "masquerade:" to "username_extension" after getting feedback from
424 qmail users, who use '-' as a separator rather than '+'. Removed
425 checking of $USERPLUS variable. Now check $USERNAME_EXTENSION,
426 which needs to include the appropriate separator for your MTA
427 ('-', '+', or whatever) as its first character.
429 Thu Mar 02 23:04:30 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
431 * Added a new "boolean" type to mh.h and TRUE and FALSE constants.
433 * Added a note to DIFFERENCES stating that it's out-of-date
434 (Richard was the last one to update it) and that we should
435 consider only documenting incompatibilities with MH there.
437 * Implemented (and documented) a third kind of username
438 masquerading: "plussed user" masquerading. This one was suggested
439 by Neil Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>. It's based on sendmail's
440 "plussed user" feature, where mail sent to <user>+<string> will be
441 delivered to <user>. When it's enabled, it's controlled by the
442 $USERPLUS environment variable. How is it enabled? Well, that
445 * Renamed the "mmailid:" setting in mts.conf to "masquerade:", and
446 changed it so that rather than being a boolean, it can be set to
447 any combination of the three values "draft_from", "mmailid", and
448 "plussed_user". Thus it is now possible to enable the three types
449 of masquerading individually.
451 * Fixed a bug with "mmailid" masquerading (dating back to MH?)
452 where if it was turned on, ','s would no longer be considered
453 GECOS field delimiters.
455 Wed Mar 01 23:30:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
457 * Changed the GECOS-field '&' translation behavior to be
458 controlled by the BSD42 #define rather than GCOS_HACK, since it's
459 apparently always appropriate on OSes where BSD42 is #defined, and
460 never appropriate on any other OSes. Thanks to Kimmo Suominen for
461 responding to my "What is this code here for?" comment in mts.c
462 and explaining the feature.
464 Mon Feb 28 21:50:29 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
466 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3+dev (ideally this should be
467 done by whoever makes a release tar file, immediately after doing
470 * Applied Paul Fox <pgf-spam@foxharp.boston.ma.us>'s scansbr.c
471 patch, posted to comp.mail.mh, which he says prevents loss of mail
472 when inc'ing into a full filesystem.
474 * Changed "echo > stamp-h.in" in Makefile.in to "date > stamp-h.in"
475 so that stamp-h.in will be different each time configure.in and
476 related files are changed, making it easier to check it in (which
477 is necessary to prevent unnecessary autoconf calls).
479 * My declaration of initgroups() in slocal.c to eliminate the "no
480 prototype" warning wasn't portable (FreeBSD 3.[23] choked). Now
481 use AC_EGREP_HEADER to see where initgroups() is declared, if
484 Sun Feb 20 12:17:15 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
486 * Fix security hole in mhshowsbr.c which allowed untrusted shell
489 * Released nmh 1.0.3.
491 Thu Feb 10 10:54:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
493 * Oops. %-escapes on mhstore lines in mhn.defaults.sh should not
494 be surrounded by single quotes, as a shell is not spawned when
495 just saving files, and the filenames will end up with literal
496 quotes embedded in them.
498 Fri Feb 04 12:29:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
500 * Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
501 got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
502 the -help output. One theory is that they were making reference
503 to the fact that clearly you know about the -help option since
504 you're currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea
505 to overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
506 supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
509 The other theory is that because you can say something like
510 "mhstore -" and get "mhstore: - ambiguous. It matches" followed
511 by the same list of switches you get with -help, they were saying
512 you can "sorta" abbreviate "-help" as "-". You don't get the
513 "Usage:" string, though, so it's not really the same thing.
515 Thu Feb 03 17:52:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
517 * Applied wesley.craig@umich.edu's KPOP patches. According to him:
519 The following patch fixes a problem with requesting a
520 service key for a machine that has multiple 'A' records. It
521 also makes "-kpop" a command line option, for users who
522 would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".
524 Did no testing of the new features, as I don't have access to a
527 * Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
529 * Modified INSTALL and config.h.in to reflect the new -kpop feature.
531 Fri Jan 28 17:39:24 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
533 * All %-escapes in mhn.defaults that actually expand to something
534 should be surrounded by single quotes. Added quotes to the ones
535 in mhn.defaults.sh that were missing them.
537 * Added check for lynx to write mhshow-show-text/html line in
540 Thu Jan 27 12:22:25 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
542 * makedir() had multiple bugs dating back to MH. An octal
543 constant was apparently being interpreted as decimal, resulting in
544 directories with no user read or execute permissions, making
545 nested directory creation fail. And there wasn't even an
546 _attempt_ to set desired permissions (e.g. from "Folder-Protect:"
547 in .mh_profile) on the outer directories of a nested directory.
549 * A second `make install' would always fail because the check for
550 whether mh_profile.5 existed was written incorrectly.
552 Wed Jan 26 02:22:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
554 * Added documentation on both types of masquerading to post's man
557 Tue Jan 25 22:58:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
559 * Doug's portability fix of my setgid inc autodetection had a
560 caching bug -- if you re-ran configure, uip/Makefile would be
561 corrupted, and installation would bomb out on OSes where inc needs
564 * Implemented a new kind of email address masquerading. Usually,
565 when a user writes a custom "From:" header in a draft, nmh uses it
566 rather than generating one. However, the user's true address is
567 used in the SMTP envelope "From:" and is revealed in the "Sender:"
568 header. Now, when mmailid is set to non-zero, the envelope
569 "From:" uses the address specified in the draft "From:" header,
570 and there is no "Sender:" header. This is useful when sending on
571 behalf of a remote POP3 account or when remote mail robots
572 incorrectly use the envelope "From:" in preference to the body
573 "From:". This processing has only been implemented for post, not
574 for the undocumented spost (which was already missing some "From:"
575 processing that post has).
577 Mon Jan 24 22:26:06 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
579 * Got rid of the rest of the gcc -Wall warnings that I didn't have
580 time for on 1999-07-15 (and, it would seem, some new ones people
581 introduced since then). The primary ones were the warnings that
582 default prototypes were being used for [v]snprintf() and
583 str[n]casecmp(). As of right now, there are _no_ compilation
584 warnings except on dtimep.c-lexed (at least under AIX 4.1.5 and
587 Sun Jan 2 23:42:18 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
589 * Move mhtest from bindir to libdir.
591 * Move sendfiles from libdir to bindir.
593 * Updated sendfiles manpage to reflect this change.
595 * Added documentation for -build and -file switches to repl and
596 forw manpages (patch from Peter Maydell).
598 * Fixed interaction between specifying -cc in profile and -group on
601 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
603 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
604 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
605 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
608 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
610 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
611 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
612 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
613 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
614 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
615 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).
617 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
619 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
621 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
623 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
624 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
625 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
626 caught again. This works for now.
628 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
630 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
632 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
633 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
635 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
637 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
638 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
640 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
642 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
644 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
646 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
647 changes. Both need more cleanup.
649 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
651 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
652 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
653 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
654 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
655 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
658 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
660 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
661 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
662 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
664 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
665 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
668 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
670 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
671 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
672 to a directory on another device with more free space.
674 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
676 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
677 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
679 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
681 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
684 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
685 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
687 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
688 macros, regardless of platform.
690 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
691 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
693 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
694 with x-conversions=gzip.
696 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
698 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
701 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
702 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
703 implicit definition of ioctl().
705 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
706 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
707 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
708 want to mess with them.
710 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
712 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
713 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
715 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
716 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
718 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
719 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
720 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
722 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
723 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
724 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
726 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
729 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
732 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
733 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
736 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
737 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
740 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
741 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
745 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
747 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
748 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
749 preventing compilation on at least linux.
751 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
752 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
754 Thu Sep 09 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
756 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
758 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
759 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
760 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
761 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
763 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
764 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
766 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
768 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
770 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
772 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
773 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
775 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
777 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
778 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
780 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
781 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
782 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
783 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
785 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
786 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
788 Sat Jun 09 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
790 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
791 substitute it for mktemp if available.
793 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
795 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
796 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
799 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
801 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
803 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
805 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
806 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
808 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
809 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
810 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
812 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
813 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
814 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
816 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
817 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
818 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
820 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
821 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
824 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
825 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
827 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
828 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
830 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
833 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
834 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
835 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
837 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
838 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
840 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
841 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
842 <elleron@servtech.com>.
844 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
845 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
848 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
849 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
851 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
852 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
853 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
854 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
856 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
857 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
859 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
863 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
864 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
865 would not be changed.
867 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
868 one from the Apache web server.
870 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
871 (this should have been done a long time ago).
873 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
874 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
875 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
877 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
879 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
881 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
882 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
885 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
886 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
887 removes a bad race condition.
889 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
892 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
893 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
894 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
896 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
897 sequence information.
899 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
900 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
902 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
905 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
908 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
910 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
911 interpret 034 as octal.
913 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
915 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
916 mhstore, and mhbuild.
918 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
919 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
921 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
922 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
924 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
925 in the c_cefile structure when building.
927 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
928 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
930 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
931 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
932 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
934 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
935 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
936 and mhshow. Updated man pages
938 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
940 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
942 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
943 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
946 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
948 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
949 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
951 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
952 header field information.
954 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
955 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
957 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
958 values when parsing a content.
960 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
961 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
963 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
964 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
966 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
967 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
969 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
970 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
972 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
974 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
976 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
978 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
980 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
981 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
984 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
985 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
987 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
988 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
989 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
990 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
991 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
992 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
995 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
997 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
998 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
999 buffer length checks for this parameter.
1001 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
1002 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
1004 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1006 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
1007 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
1008 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
1009 of the limits on the length of command lines.
1011 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
1012 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
1015 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
1016 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
1017 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
1018 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
1021 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1023 * Released nmh-0.27.
1025 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
1026 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
1028 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
1029 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
1030 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
1031 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
1034 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
1035 mhbuild returns an error.
1037 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
1038 rename the draft file.
1040 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
1041 use a global variable.
1043 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
1044 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
1046 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
1047 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
1049 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
1050 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
1051 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
1053 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
1054 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
1056 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
1057 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
1060 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
1061 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
1064 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
1065 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
1067 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
1068 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
1069 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
1071 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
1072 to new function output_content_folder.
1074 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
1075 new function output_content_file.
1077 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
1078 to new function parse_format_string.
1080 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
1081 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
1082 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
1083 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
1085 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
1086 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
1087 message/external file from ftp.
1089 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
1090 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
1091 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
1093 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
1094 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
1097 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
1100 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
1101 new file mhstoresbr.c
1103 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
1106 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
1107 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
1109 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
1110 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
1112 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
1113 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
1114 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
1116 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
1118 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
1120 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
1121 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
1124 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
1125 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
1127 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
1130 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
1132 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1134 * Released nmh-0.26.
1136 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
1137 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
1138 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
1139 is still the same (dashstuffing).
1141 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
1142 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
1143 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
1144 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
1145 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
1147 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
1148 But it is not on by default.
1150 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
1151 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
1153 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
1155 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
1157 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
1159 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
1161 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
1162 number of the "cur" message when packing.
1164 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1166 * Released nmh-0.25.
1168 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
1169 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
1170 uses the original name of the library.
1172 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
1173 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
1176 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
1177 list_content and list_debug.
1179 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
1181 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
1182 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.
1184 1998-02-27 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1186 * Released nmh-0.24.
1188 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
1190 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
1191 are given, that order doesn't matter.
1193 * Fix bug in seq_list.c when realloc'ing for
1194 large sequence line.
1196 1998-02-23 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1198 * Released nmh-0.23.
1200 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
1202 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
1203 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan
1204 content, decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary
1205 string). I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
1207 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
1208 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
1211 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
1213 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
1215 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
1217 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
1218 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
1220 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
1221 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.
1223 * Add note to MACHINES file that on Linux, configure
1224 doesn't find the functions sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
1226 * Fix configuration for machines that don't have (or find)
1227 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
1229 1998-02-11 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1231 * Released nmh-0.22.
1233 * Add a configure check for sigsetjmp. Add some conditional
1234 #define's in h/signals.h in case it's not found.
1236 * Added additional notes about -auto switch in mhn man page.
1238 * Added note about MM_CHARSET environment variable to
1239 mh-profile(5) man page.
1241 * Fix signal problem in mhn.c (change setjmp/longjmp to
1242 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp).
1244 1998-02-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1246 * Released nmh-0.22-pre1.
1248 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
1249 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
1251 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
1253 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
1254 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
1255 entry point for parsing MIME files.
1257 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
1258 source message on the standard input.
1260 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
1262 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
1263 rather than -rfc934mode.
1265 * Fix mhbuild, so that Content-Description and RFC-822 comments
1266 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
1269 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
1270 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).
1272 * Restore HP specific code to zotnet/tws/lexstring.c. Apparently
1275 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1277 * Released nmh-0.21.
1279 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
1280 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.
1282 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what transfer
1285 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what character set
1286 to use for text contents.
1288 * Removed old hpux specific code from zotnet/tws/lexstring.c
1290 1998-02-02 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1292 * Released nmh-0.21-pre2.
1294 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
1296 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
1297 header fields as per RFC-2047.
1299 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
1300 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
1301 spaces between encoded word are.
1303 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
1305 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
1306 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
1308 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
1309 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
1310 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
1312 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
1314 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
1315 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
1317 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.
1319 * Added support for %(decode) to fmtdump.c.
1321 * check_charset() now accepts US-ASCII as a subset of any
1322 ISO-8859-X character set.
1324 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
1327 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
1328 permissions, not write permissions.
1330 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
1331 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
1333 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
1336 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1338 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
1340 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
1341 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
1343 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
1344 message contains valid character set.
1346 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
1347 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
1349 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
1350 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
1352 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
1353 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
1354 between an encoded word and normal text.
1356 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
1357 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
1359 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
1360 as a RFC-2047 header field.
1362 * The command install-mh now recognizes the switches -version
1365 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
1366 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
1369 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
1370 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
1372 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
1373 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
1375 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
1377 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1379 * Released nmh-0.20.
1381 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
1383 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.
1385 * Changed the default format file for mhl (mhl.format) to
1386 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
1387 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
1389 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
1390 and the To: line was missing.
1392 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
1394 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1396 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
1398 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
1399 watch the POP transaction.
1401 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
1402 first, and use it if available.
1404 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
1405 first, and use it if available.
1407 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1409 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
1411 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
1412 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
1413 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
1416 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
1417 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
1418 returns the state FLDPLUS.
1420 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
1421 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
1424 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
1426 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
1427 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
1429 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
1431 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
1432 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
1434 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
1435 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
1436 message to which you are replying.
1438 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
1439 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
1440 making group replies.
1442 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
1444 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1446 * Released nmh-0.19.
1448 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
1449 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
1451 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
1452 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
1453 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
1454 to the end of the man page.
1456 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
1457 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
1458 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
1459 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
1460 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
1461 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
1463 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
1466 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
1467 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
1468 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
1470 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
1471 the next available number above the message number you wish
1474 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
1475 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
1477 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
1478 file sbr/seq_print.c
1480 * flist will now update the current folder.
1482 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
1483 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
1484 but now undocumented.
1486 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
1489 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
1490 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
1492 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
1494 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
1495 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
1497 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1499 * Released nmh-0.18.
1501 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
1502 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
1503 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
1505 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
1506 retains the public/private status of sequences.
1508 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
1509 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
1510 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
1511 previous public/private status.
1513 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
1516 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
1519 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
1520 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
1521 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
1523 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
1524 take option to determine whether it should get current
1525 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
1526 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
1528 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
1530 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
1531 wait for stopped processes.
1533 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
1534 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
1536 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1538 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
1540 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
1541 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
1543 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
1544 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
1546 * Change the way that memory for message status is
1547 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
1548 the folder/message structure. This required changing
1549 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
1551 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
1554 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
1557 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
1559 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
1560 the debugging output.
1562 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
1563 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
1565 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1567 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
1569 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
1570 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
1572 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
1574 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
1575 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
1576 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
1577 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
1578 in the given sequence.
1580 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
1581 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
1582 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
1583 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
1584 subdirectories of a given directory.
1586 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
1587 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
1588 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
1590 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
1591 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
1593 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
1595 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
1598 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
1599 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
1600 fields are now calculated at runtime.
1602 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
1603 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
1604 are calculated at runtime.
1606 Sun Nov 30 19:14:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1608 * Released nmh-0.18-pre2.
1610 * Add paragraph to man page for install-mh and to INSTALL file
1611 about checking for global mh.profile.
1613 * Renamed m_find() to context_find().
1614 Renamed m_replace() to context_replace().
1615 Renamed m_delete() to context_del().
1616 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
1617 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
1618 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
1620 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
1621 adding message to folder itself.
1623 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
1624 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
1625 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
1628 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
1629 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
1632 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
1633 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
1634 is the same as the direct smtp code).
1636 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
1637 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
1639 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
1640 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
1641 code to use it yet).
1643 Thu Nov 13 18:42:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1645 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.
1647 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never
1648 called with a value larger than 30 mintues.
1650 * Fixed race condition in rmm and refile, so that
1651 context is updated before external rmmproc is called.
1653 * Removed all the OVERHEAD code.
1655 * Move code to add message to folder from refile.c
1658 Fri Jul 25 19:39:29 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1660 * Did some rearranging of the internals of inc.c.
1662 * Make -inplace the default for anno, forw, dist, and repl.
1664 * Changed --enable-smtp to --with-mts={smtp,sendmail}
1666 * Created new directory mts/sendmail for direct sendmail
1667 interface (although it currently still uses SMTP).
1669 * Removed all the TMA (trusted mail agent) code
1671 * Removed all the TTYD (terminal access daemon) code
1673 * Removed all the MF (uucp filtering) code.
1675 * Removed all the code for BERK.
1677 * Removed all the code for stand-alone delivery (MHMTS).
1679 * Split the file mts/sendmail/smail.c into sendmail.c and
1680 smtp.c. Changed the name of the directory to mts/smtp.
1682 * Changed autoconf to use @sysconfdir@ for location of
1683 configuration files.
1685 * Changed #define in mhn.c from FTP to BUILTIN_FTP.
1687 Mon Jul 21 03:22:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1689 * Released nmh-0.17.
1691 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
1693 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
1694 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
1696 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
1699 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
1700 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
1702 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
1703 number of refiled message.
1705 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
1707 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
1708 for return value of wait().
1710 * Change configure to also check /bin for "more".
1712 Sat Jul 12 00:02:23 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1714 * Released nmh-0.16.
1716 Mon Jun 23 20:13:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1718 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
1720 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
1721 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
1722 deal with binary messages, yet).
1724 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
1726 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
1728 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
1729 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
1730 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
1731 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
1732 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
1733 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
1735 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
1736 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
1738 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
1739 From MH-6.8.4 patch.
1741 * Fix double free of ctinfo in user_content when using
1742 #forw with single message. From John MacMillan (and
1745 * Changed -mhnproc switch for show, to -showmimeproc.
1747 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".
1749 * Added "mime" option to "whatnow", which calls the program
1750 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
1753 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
1756 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
1758 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
1759 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
1760 which used unsigned chars by default.
1762 Sat Jun 21 01:21:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1764 * Released nmh-0.15.
1766 * Added new form "scan.unseen" to distribution. It marks messages
1767 which are in any sequence in Unseen-Sequence.
1769 * Do some rearranging of date/time code in zotnet/tws/dtime.c
1771 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
1773 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
1776 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
1777 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
1778 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
1780 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
1781 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
1783 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
1785 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
1786 they conflict with defines on AIX.
1788 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
1789 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
1790 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
1791 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
1793 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
1794 and put in own subroutine.
1796 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
1797 and put in own subroutine.

1811 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
1812 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
1814 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
1817 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before

1832 selected messages to a sequence.
1834 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,
1837 Thu May 15 00:53:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

1885 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
1886 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
1889 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
1890 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
1892 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1894 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if
1895 necessary. So `folders' can now handle more than 300 folders.
1897 Tue Apr 22 14:01:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1899 * Change configure to use a compile check to see if the tm struct

1928 will suppress the display of the message header.
1930 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
1932 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c

1944 * Add note to man page for mhmail that zero length messages are
1945 not sent. Need to use -body "" to send empty messages.

1949 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
1951 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
1952 folder/message structure when done with folder.
1954 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is
1955 defined even if message is missing "From " line.

2017 * Released nmh-0.08.
2019 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
2020 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of
2021 locking database itself.

2025 * Added slocal action `mmdf' to deliver to a file in mmdf format.
2027 * Changed the slocal actions `file' and `>' to always deliver in
2028 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
2031 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
2032 rather than mmdf format.
2034 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
2035 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
2036 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
2037 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
2039 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
2041 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2043 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
2046 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2047 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2048 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
2050 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2051 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2052 rcvpack so you can choose the preferred format.
2054 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2056 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
2057 can still easily change this in config.h).
2059 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
2060 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
2061 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
2063 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2065 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather

2080 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
2082 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
2083 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
2086 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
2087 built-in FTP client in mhn.

2100 * Released nmh-0.06.
2102 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
2103 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
2105 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
2106 many such machines around anymore.
2108 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
2109 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
2111 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
2112 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
2114 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2116 * Check lex generated file in zotnet/tws and use
2117 pre-generated version if necessary.
2119 * Released nmh-0.05.
2121 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
2122 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
2123 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
2124 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
2126 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
2127 be linked in one pass.
2129 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2131 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
2132 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
2134 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2136 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
2138 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2140 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
2141 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
2142 become the current folder.
2144 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2146 * Released nmh-0.04.

2151 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2153 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
2154 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
2155 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
2157 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2159 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
2160 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
2162 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2164 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
2165 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
2168 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
2169 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
2171 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2173 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
2174 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
2175 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
2176 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
2177 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
2178 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
2180 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2182 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
2183 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
2185 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
2186 a file (currently need to specify full path).
2188 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2190 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
2191 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
2193 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2195 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
2196 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
2197 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
2199 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2201 * Released nmh-0.03.
2203 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
2204 .mh_sequence file existed.
2206 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
2207 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
2209 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
2210 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
2213 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2215 * Changed flist option -unseen to -[no]all. Cleaned up
2218 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2220 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
2221 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
2222 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
2224 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2226 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
2227 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
2228 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
2230 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2232 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL
2233 and allocate its own buffer. Borrowed from zsh.
2235 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
2237 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2239 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
2240 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
2241 directory from where the source code is located.
2243 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2245 * Released nmh-0.02.

2255 and sys_nerr directly.
2257 Mon Dec 30 02:15:25 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2259 * -compat switch from install-mh removed.
2261 * Changed the default POP port from "pop" to "pop3".
2263 Sat Dec 28 13:25:05 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2265 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
2266 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
2267 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
2268 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
2269 rather than in script.
2271 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2273 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
2275 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with
2276 macro defined on Solaris.

2280 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
2281 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
2283 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
2284 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
2285 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
2286 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
2289 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2291 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
2292 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.
2294 * Fixed configure test so that termcap variable ospeed is
2297 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2299 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
2301 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included
2302 in mhn.c. Changed md5 to use memset and memcpy.
2304 Fri Dec 20 02:29:37 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2306 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
2307 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
2309 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2311 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
2312 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
2313 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
2314 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
2315 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
2316 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
2318 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2320 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
2322 * Released nmh-0.01.
2324 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
2325 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
2326 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
2329 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2331 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
2334 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2336 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
2337 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
2339 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2341 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
2342 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
2343 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
2344 script to find_program.
2346 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2348 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
2349 speed up -recurse option.
2351 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
2352 yet, but it compiles :-)
2354 * Changed default location for install to
2355 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
2356 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
2357 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
2360 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
2361 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
2362 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
