1 Tue Feb 6 20:35:40 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
3 * sbr/dtime.c Use the same Y2K correction code as dtimep.lex
5 * sbr/dtimep.lex Restrict the parser to accept either
6 a numerical timezone offset, or a symbolic one (e.g. EST),
7 but not both (Since "2000 -400 EDT" might cause a double
8 subtraction of 60 minutes if both are parsed. One should be
11 Mon Feb 05 20:22:54 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
13 * -L isn't sufficient for specifying the path of the Cyrus SASL
14 shared library. That'll allow us to link successfully, but on
15 many/most OSes that won't allow us to find libsasl at runtime. On
16 Solaris, we need to specify the library path with -R as well (or
17 else the user will have to use the $LD_LIBRARY_PATH kludge, which
18 is considered harmful). This fix should be extended to other OSes
21 * Print whether we have SASL support in the "nmh configuration"
22 summary configure prints out.
24 * Say in README.developers to use `\date' in case anyone is like
25 me and has `date' aliased in their shell to use a nonstandard (but
26 subjectively more readable) format.
28 Thu Jan 25 21:15:52 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
30 * man/mh-chart.man has updated synposes of
33 Tue Jan 23 20:26:15 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
35 * etc/digestcomps tried to force dates into a
36 19xx when it's not necessary.
38 Fri Jan 19 21:22:08 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
40 * First round of manpage updates finished. They
41 are standardized on -man macros, with minimal
44 * man/tmac.h.in is no longer needed, since the
45 manpages do not depend on them anymore. Note:
46 strict "man" programs that didn't allow ".so"
47 sourcing outside the man tree will now format
48 the man pages correctly.
50 * man/vmh.1 is no longer built, since uip/vmh isn't
52 Tue Jan 9 6:01:22 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
54 * Finished manpages ali-prev
56 * Removed deprecated files from the repository.
57 Specifically, those rooted in zotnet/ and mts/sendmail
58 mts/mmdf. "cvs update -dP" will give a pruned directory
61 * Updated docs/Makefile.in to include README.manpages, and
62 uip/Makefile.in to include popi.c (which isn't being built,
63 though). This allows "make nmhdist" to create an archive that
64 is file-for-file identical to the current cvs repository.
66 Sun Dec 31 20:48:50 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
68 * Create docs/README.manpages, which details
69 the formatting rules I've been using.
73 Sat Dec 30 9:50:13 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
75 * Created a new file "DATE" to hold the date
76 of the most recent nmh release. This date will be
79 * Updated docs/README.developers to add the step
80 of updating DATE. Also, updated configure to
81 read in the contents of the file as the variable
84 * Started work on updating man pages, with only
85 ali finished so far. Changes: 1) no dependence
86 on an external macro file, 2) uses only
87 -man macros (although I may be mistaken in this),
88 3) syntax in the SYNOPSIS is a little more
89 in line with standard UNIX documentation, such as
90 bold flags and italicized parameters.
92 Sun Dec 24 10:06:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
94 * Updated INSTALL with information about the
95 --with-locking option.
97 * Fixed the Hesiod tests in configure.in. In
98 systems where res_send was in -lresolv, this
99 information was not being communicated to the
100 HESIOD_LIBS var. Now, if res_send is not found
101 in the default libraries, it's assumed to be
102 in -lresolv, and thus -lresolv is appended to
103 HESIOD_LIBS, which will need that to avoid
104 undefined symbols problems.
106 * Fixed the Kerberos tests in configure.in. New
107 versions of Kerberos 5 have renamed -lcrypto
108 to -lk5crypto (circa krb5 1.1 or thereabouts). The
109 new test tries to determine if -lk5crypto exists. If so,
110 this is a new krb5 system. If not, test for -lcrypto
111 and the rest of old krb5. If that fails, look
112 for a genuine krb4 installation.
114 Fri Dec 22 22:08:51 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
116 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in msgchk.man.
117 -snoop was documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
119 Fri Dec 22 23:42:16 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
121 * Made a new ./configure option called
122 "--with-locking" that allows the file
123 locking mechanism to be chosen there instead of
124 requiring a manual edit of config.h.
126 * If the option is not explicitly set, or an
127 invalid option is specified, "dot" locking is
128 chosen. Valid options are "dot", "fcntl",
129 "flock", and "lockf". We need a way to tell
130 the user that these are the valid options, and
131 change the flag "--with-locking" if it's not
134 Fri Dec 22 19:21:29 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
136 * Remove the lex-specific memory hints at the
137 beginning of sbr/dtimep.lex. We've already
138 committed to supporting flex only, since
139 lex does not easily allow us to parse a single
140 string, as well as other problems documented
141 below and on nmh-workers.
143 * Added a switch statement to configure.in to
144 test for Mac OS X. If this is the case, LDFLAGS
145 should not contain "-s" since the linker rejects
148 * Updated MACHINES to include Mac OS X Public Beta,
149 as well as Linux 2.4 running glibc 2.2.
151 Wed Dec 20 16:00:46 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
153 * Marked deprecated directories in docs/README.developers
154 as deprecated, with pointers to the new code location.
155 Eventually these deprecated directories should go away.
157 Tue Dec 19 19:16:37 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
159 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in inc.man. -snoop was
160 documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
162 Thu Dec 14 14:32:09 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
164 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
165 versions on ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/config, dated
166 12-07-00. This should prevent configure from failing
167 on newer operating systems because config.{guess,sub}
168 couldn't correctly identify them.
170 Thu Dec 14 1:30:44 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
172 * Fixed the circular dependency created when I moved
173 zotnet/mts to mts/generic and merged them into libmts.
174 mts/generic/client.c and mts/generic/mts.c are now in sbr/
175 (and thus in libmh), which makes libmh self-contained and
176 not depending on an external archive.
178 * All include statements now look for mts.h in h/. The
179 Makefiles and configure script have been modified so that
180 mts/generic is no longer built.
182 Mon Dec 11 22:08:07 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
184 * When Shantonu made the new libmts.a, he swapped $(MTSLIB) and
185 libmh.a in sbr/Makefile.in so that libmh.a comes first, but this
186 causes the build to fail on Solaris, because libmts.a has to get
187 ruserpass() out of libmh.a. Swapping them back to the way Ken
188 Hornstein's patch (which I applied on Jul 20) put them, with
189 libmh.a correctly coming second. If there are times when libmts.a
190 needs to come second, then it would appear there's a circular
191 dependency and someone (Shantonu?) did an mts merge incorrectly.
193 Fri Sep 8 01:36:23 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
195 * Took out bad time textual time zones like BST and JST.
196 I found them online somewhere, but am not sure if they're
199 Fri Sep 8 00:36:48 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
201 * Moved zotnet/mts to mts/generic. This code reorganization
202 makes the entire zotnet tree deprecated -- bboards is unneeded,
203 mf was was moved to sbr, tws was rewritten and moved to sbr, and
206 * Created a new static library called libmts.a used during
207 compilation which includes the generic mts code and the
208 smtp/sendmail code. This supercedes the functionality of the
209 old libsmtp.a and the remains of libzot.a.
211 * Updated header includes to reference the new location of mts.h
212 in mts/generic/mts.h. Also, update the configure and top-level
213 Makefile not to descend into zotnet. Also, they don't descend
214 into mts/mmdf and mts/sendmail (the sendmail code has been
215 merged into the smtp code).
217 * Added #include <h/nmh.h> to h/md5.h, since my compile was
218 complaining about implicitly-declared memcpy and memset, which
219 appear to be in strings.h. In any event, nmh.h should take care
222 * When doing a "make nmhdist", notice that the generated
223 snapshot does not include zotnet of the mts directories as noted
224 above. Since they are no longer compiled, and I don't see any
225 obvious code path to get to them, end-users should probably
226 not need them. If you think otherwise, turn Makefile generation
227 back on in configure.in and turn on recursion into those dirs
228 in the appropriate Makefile.in
230 Wed Sep 6 22:40:03 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
232 * Tracked down the problem in the new dtimep where time
233 zones were being radically misreported. It was because the
234 parser knew about military time zones (such as M or E) but in
235 some cases did not know about the textual representation of
236 some zones (like MET). When it encountered one of these, the
237 date parser misread MET as the military time zone T (well, first
238 zone M, then E, and finally T). I took military zones out, and
239 things seem much better. Also, the default behavior of parsing
240 time zones appears to default to GMT in the absence of better
241 info, which is less bogus than assuming the mail came from the
242 current time zone, which was the behavior in 1.04.
244 Thu Aug 10 13:22:13 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
246 * Decided that limiting the message number columns to 3 on my
247 scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD (to try to regain space taken by
248 extra date info) was ill-conceived. It's not that tough to get
249 past 999 messages, though I imagine it's rather rare to exceed
250 9999. Changed these to 4. Also put the "replied / encrypted"
251 column back in YYYYMMDD -- I've never seen it show anything but a
252 space, but that space is useful if you use scan, grep, and awk
253 (with the default field separator) to grab message numbers (I know
254 -- pick should really be used for these purposes...).
256 Mon Aug 7 20:11:09 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
258 * Modify umask set by mhshow to enable user execute bit, so that
259 viewers that create temporary directories (e.g., lynx) will be
262 Thu Aug 03 17:14:08 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
264 * TODO: Allow multiple simultaneous differing contexts, probably
265 each tied to a parent (terminal) process.
267 Tue Aug 1 10:48:05 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
269 * Makefile install rules should not look for generated files in
270 the source tree -- this will happen to work when configuring and
271 building inside the source tree but will fail when using an
272 external build tree. Fixed etc/Makefile.in.
274 Mon Jul 24 16:20:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
276 * When Shantonu wrote the new, more portable dtimep.lex, he left
277 out the #ifdef DSTXXX stuff for some reason. Not a good idea, as
278 that code is required for proper printing of numeric-offset
279 timezones that have daylight saving time. Without that code,
280 -0700 during DST gets printed as MST instead of PDT.
282 * Renamed DSTXXX as ADJUST_NUMERIC_ONLY_TZ_OFFSETS_WRT_DST and
283 added an explanatory comment by its #definition.
285 * Updated README.developers with the fact that zotnet/tws is going away.
287 Thu Jul 20 20:30:52 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
289 * Moved Kimmo's new "--with-hash-backup" to be output with the
290 rest of the --with options in the configure --help output. Also,
291 people did not preserve my alphabetization of the --with options
292 when they added new ones. Re-alphabetized.
294 * One more pass at README.developers now that it's clear that my
295 previously-suggested one-line autoconf-file commit can cause
296 unnecessary local makes and an out-of-sync stamp-h.in file, but
297 would not cause problems for other people using the CVS files.
299 * Ken Hornstein's SASL patch was not integrated properly with
300 Ruud's new merged mts/sendmail code. Kimmo has since fixed nmh so
301 it compiles, but according to Ken, the SASL stuff still does not
302 work. Integrating a patch from him for this.
304 * Last pass at README.developers -- Kimmo's 5-step commit was
305 overkill. You only need 3 steps, since configure.in is the only
306 autoconf file with the RCS $Id keyword.
308 * Applied Kurt J. Lidl <lidl@eng.us.uu.net>'s $MAILHOST patch:
310 I have a small patch that would be nice to be included --
311 basically, it allows the usage of the "MAILHOST" environment
312 variable, without having to have HESIOD turned on. I need
313 this functionality for my environment, where we have identical
314 /usr/local on all my machines (so I cannot just hardcode into
315 the mts.conf file), and I have multiple POP mail servers for
318 Modified inc.man to reflect that along with "pophost:" and -host,
319 $MAILHOST can now activate POP mail inclusion as well.
321 * Fixed warnings from diff on first-time install of nmh. Also
322 added 'echo's clarifying the etc file installation activities.
324 Tue Jul 18 19:36:59 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
326 * Added the answer to Dan's question in README.developers.
328 Mon Jul 17 19:10:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
330 * Clarified and made some corrections to Kimmo's README.developers
331 changes (BTW, if anyone can explain why the RCS Ids are able to cause
332 problems with the dependencies, please fill in the explanation --
333 I never encountered a problem with the old single-commit method).
335 Sat Jul 15 23:13:49 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
337 * Add configure option --with-hash-backup so the backup prefix can
338 be easily changed from "," to "#".
340 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that it works with any make.
342 * Use mkstemp in sbr/lock_file.c.
344 * Commits of autoconf-related files apparently can't all be done
345 in one shot due to RCS Ids changing when committing -- updated
348 Tue Jul 11 14:18:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
350 * Clarified post.man and send.man for those not completely up on
351 SASL terminology. "SASL encryption layers are not supported for
352 SMTP" means that encryption is supported for the authentication
353 but not for the subsequent data stream.
355 Sat Jul 8 01:36:19 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
357 * Applied Ken Hornstein <kenh@cmf.nrl.navy.mil>'s patches
358 implementing SASL support for POP3 and SMTP. If nmh is compiled
359 with SASL support, using the -sasl switch on the inc, msgchk,
360 post, and send commands will enable authentication encryption for
361 SMTP, and both authentication and data stream encryption for POP3.
363 Sat Jun 10 18:37:59 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
365 * Merged mts/sendmail functionality into mts/smtp; switching between
366 smtp and sendmail delivery method is now controlled by mts.conf.
368 * If tsort cannot deal with loops, in addition to defining tsort as
369 cat, also define lorder as echo.
371 * Removed uip/popi.c from list of sources.
373 Thu Jun 08 19:36:57 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
375 * New dtimep.lex didn't parse day names properly. Fixed. Also
376 clarified ambiguous comments preceding day_map[] array (from old
377 dtimep.lex) that probably led to the erroneous cp++ being added.
379 Wed Jun 7 20:52:33 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
381 * Added one more mkstemp invocation to uip/spost.c (which was in a
384 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to clean up permissions handling
385 and error handling in uip/inc.c.
387 Mon Jun 5 22:10:07 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
389 * Use cat instead of tsort if tsort cannot deal with loops in its
390 input (which is the case for tsort from GNU textutils).
392 Mon Jun 5 21:14:36 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
394 * If lockfile is present, and its dotlockfile program is setgid,
395 inc does not need to be setgid.
397 Sun Jun 4 21:35:40 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
399 * Added autoconf test for Miquel van Smoorenburg's liblockfile
400 library, as found on Debian systems.
402 * Added liblockfile support to sbr/lock_file.c.
404 Wed May 31 7:19:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
406 * Fixed up dtimep.lex a bit. Added back memory options for AIX to
407 increase available memory. Took out %option noyywrap, which
408 wasn't understood by AT&T lex, as well as the -i
409 case-insensitivity flag.
411 Wed May 31 07:40:45 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
413 * Added a lint target to the Makefiles and a check in autoconf
414 to determine whether lint or lclint exists on the system.
416 Fri May 30 19:21:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
418 * etc/Makefile.in was incorrectly installing mts.conf.in and
419 sendfiles.in -- fixed. Generated sendfiles script was not a
420 dependency of the `all' target, and was incorrectly included in
421 the distribution. Changed the suffix for the backed-up previous
422 versions of the etc files from the ambiguous .old to .prev. Added
423 call to diff -- only keep the .prev files around if different from
424 the newly-installed versions (intentionally didn't redirect output
425 to /dev/null so you'll notice when your changed versions are
426 getting moved aside).
428 * INSTALL never documented the etc/*.old thing. Documented the
429 new etc/*.prev thing (including a note to watch for diff output).
431 * Applied Alec Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu>'s dropsbr.c patch:
433 In the map_write routine, a call is made to map_open and this
434 call is supposed to set the "clear" variable to 0 or 1,
435 depending on whether the map file is empty or not. In
436 mh6.8.3, this worked because map_open would set "clear" by
437 calling the mbx_Xopen routine. In nmh, the code for mbx_Xopen
438 was merged into mbx_open, but the interface for mbx_open
439 doesn't support the clear variable, so that functionality was
440 lost. The map_open interface still contains "int *clear" in
441 the prototype, but never sets it.
443 My patch eliminates "clear" from the map_open interface (I
444 checked to make sure that map_write is the only client of
445 map_open). Furthermore, my patch also sets the "clear"
446 variable properly at the beginning of map_write by calling
447 fstat(). This eliminates the bug in that the value of "clear"
448 being used later in the routine was just stack garbage.
450 Having a bad value of clear causes this next bug to be
451 triggered: The fp file pointer was being opened with fdopen,
452 but in two of the three switch cases it wasn't being closed.
453 In certain cases, this was causing packf to run out of file
454 descriptors if you attempted to pack a large folder.
456 Mon May 29 7:48:15 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
458 * Moved the date parsing routines from zotnet/tws to sbr/ (and
459 tws.h to h/). Updated all source files to reflect to new location
462 * Rewrote dparsetime (in dtimep.lex -> dtimep.c) to replace the
463 old zotnet/tws/dtimep.c, dtimep.lex, lexstring.c, lexedit.c, and
464 dtimep.c-lexed. It should now work with flex (although untested
465 with lex), and requires no sed-ing. For now, I have the lexed
466 version in the distribution, so that end-users don't need to worry
467 about running it through flex/lex. I have not added back support
468 for guessing the time zone when it's not specified.
470 Sun May 28 17:44:15 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
472 * Added autoconf check for getutent().
474 * Changed uip/rcvtty.c and uip/slocal.c to use getutent() and
475 friends. Since I can only check on Linux, please check if
476 this works on other systems.
478 Sun May 28 14:58:49 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
480 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to uip/scansbr.c for more
481 checks for write failures.
483 * Unlink temporary file properly in uip/rcvtty.c.
485 * Moved viamail from bindir to libdir.
487 * Changed sendfiles into sendfiles.in, so that path to viamail
490 * Added gzip support to sendfiles.
492 * Added References header to replcomps and replgroupcomps.
494 Sun May 28 14:39:31 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
496 * Fixed m_getfld bug which caused segmentation faults when
497 incorporating messages which ended in multiple linefeeds crossing
500 Fri May 26 13:21:59 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
502 * msh has been unable to show MIME messages ever since 1.0. Alec
503 Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu> tracked down the problem to the
504 -show flag being passed to mhshow. mhshow is equivalent to the
505 old mhn -show, so we don't need the -show anymore. Removed it.
507 Fri May 12 02:51:21 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
509 * zotnet/bboards is not longer built by default. Goal is to move
510 the assorted functions in zotnet into sbr or some more logical
513 * Moved zotnet/mf to sbr, and changed mf.h references accordingly,
514 as well as Makefiles.
516 Thu May 11 02:21:34 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
518 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that both SRCS and OBJS aren't
519 seperately and redundantly defined, but so that OBJS is a
520 pattern-substituted version of SRCS with suffix .c -> .o. This
521 should make maintainability easier.
523 * Added section to MACHINES indicating what platforms nmh is known
524 to compile and work on, just to give users peace of mind, or
525 something. This is by no means complete or exhaustive, so add
526 whatever you know works.
528 Tue May 09 20:38:04 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
530 * Alphabetized Shantonu's $pop_kinds output on configure's "pop is
531 enabled" line. If POP3 is the only kind of POP enabled, say so,
532 rather than just saying "yes" (which is ambiguous).
534 * Fixed four warnings in Shantonu's new getpass.c. Needed to
535 #include <stdlib.h> for calloc(), <unistd.h> for ttyname(), and
536 "h/mh.h" for adios(). Also changed ch from char to int to get rid
537 of "comparison is always 1 due to limited range of data type" on EOF.
539 * Added steps to README.developers saying to change the version
540 number to X.Y.Z+dev. Did a little rearranging and changed the FTP
541 dir from /home/ftp to /var/ftp to reflect Doug's new machine.
543 * Changed configure.in to use gcc -Wall even without
544 --enable-debug, to prevent developers compiling optimized from
545 introducing warnings, and to give end-users a warm, fuzzy feeling
546 as they (hopefully) see no warnings come out (except perhaps on
547 the lex output file) even with -Wall.
549 * Renamed getpass() to nmh_getpass() since the prototype for
550 getpass() varies from OS to OS, and we want to _always_ use our
551 version of the function. Fixed all the callers to use
552 nmh_getpass() and added it to prototypes.h. Semi-arbitrarily
553 upped MAX_PASSWORD_LEN from 128 to 256. buf was being calloc()'d
554 and the memory leaked -- should have just been declared as static
555 char array. Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the
556 copyright message, as this version has been changed significantly
557 from the BSD version.
559 * Added "nmh-local functions to use in preference to OS versions"
560 section to README.developers (currently just says to use
561 nmh_getpass() instead of system getpass()).
563 * Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the copyright message
566 * Added mts.conf.5 page per Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s
569 This happens on solaris:
572 windex entry incorrect: mts.conf(5) not found.
573 No manual entry for mts.conf.
577 % echo ".so man5/mh-tailor.5" > mts.conf.5
579 done in the man5 directory. We need to add 'mts.conf.5' as a
580 reference sourcing mh-tailor.5.
582 Mon May 08 23:51:55 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
584 * Doug informed me that the way I had restored the "lost" version
585 histories was wrong, because `cvs checkout's of old versions of
586 nmh wouldn't work properly. It occurs to me that this could be
587 fixed by simply deleting those tags in the new-location *,v files,
588 but oh well. I'm putting everything back to the way Doug
589 originally had it. To get the old version history for a file that
590 used to be in the top directory, you'll need to "blindly" do a
591 `cvs log' there (even though you won't have a local copy of the
592 file in that directory). `cvs diff' will no longer be able to
593 diff pre-move versions vs. post-move versions -- you'll have to do
594 a lot of manual gyrations with `cvs checkout' and then use `diff'.
596 * I had alphabetized the --configure options in the --help output
597 awhile back, but Shantonu added --enable-apop just under
598 --enable-pop. Put it in alphabetical order and clarified what
599 --enable-apop does vs. --enable-pop and --with-krb4. Also changed
600 --with-mts help line from "mail transport agent" to "mail
601 transport agent/service" so the 's' in "mts" doesn't seem to come
604 * Added two steps to "releasing nmh" in README.developers. After
605 making the tarball, it's a good idea to diff the tree vs. the CVS
606 tree to make sure no files got left out, and then to chown the
607 files so that they're owned by root, preventing a Trojaning attack
608 by a malicious remote user with a UID matching yours.
610 * Changed DIFFERENCES to say that RPOP is not currently supported
611 rather than implying it by saying that APOP, KPOP, and POP[3] are.
613 Sun May 07 18:16:43 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
615 * Imported NetBSD version of getpass() and made extensive
616 revisions for compatibility with programs that pipe the password
617 to stdin, such as exmh.
619 * Removed tests for system ruserpass() which sometimes gave
620 phantom positive results. Also, bext to use internal functions if
621 we ever want to change .netrc format to something else, or access
624 Sat May 06 08:28:09 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
626 * Restored lost version histories for those moved files by doing a
627 manual `mv' in the CVSROOT on mhost. CVS badly needs a `cvs mv'
628 command so that you can move files (without having physical access
629 to the CVSROOT) without losing versioning. Put MACHINES back at
630 the top level as it needs to be read before building. Fixed DIST
631 variable in {.,docs}/Makefile.in to reflect that and to add
632 missing entry for "INSTALL" file.
634 Sat May 06 13:13:07 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
636 * Re-cleaned up nmh documentation (by moving things to docs
637 subdir) and modified Makefile & configure.in to handle the change.
639 Mon Apr 17 21:28:40 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
641 * Scott Blachowicz pointed out that the configure --help output
642 for --enable-masquerade was misleading. Clarified.
644 Mon Apr 17 19:01:00 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
646 * APOP support can be compiled in to inc and msgchk using
649 * To access an APOP host, specify -apop on the command line
650 along with any -host or -user option.
652 Fri Apr 14 23:10:44 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
654 * Upped the version number to 1.0.4+dev until the next nmh release.
656 * Added a "releasing nmh" section to README.developers, while the
657 process was fresh in my mind.
659 Fri Apr 14 18:21:34 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
661 * Added new files README.developers, ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6, and
662 ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html to DIST target in Makefile.in.
664 * Released nmh-1.0.4.
666 Tue Apr 11 21:37:03 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
668 * Applied Brian Campbell <bacam@tardis.ed.ac.uk>'s mhn.defaults.sh
671 It appears that there shouldn't be quotes around the %s in the
672 iso-8859-1 charset entry; xterm passes the remaining arguments
673 to the program, quoting them means that xterm thinks they're
674 part of the program's name.
676 This %s isn't the same as the "Insert content subtype" one from
677 mhshow-show-* -- it doesn't come from MIME headers and is safe not
680 Sun Apr 09 13:03:59 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
682 * added check in fmt_compile() to handle a single-character
683 format string. fmt_compile() depends on having an array of
684 format characters with an empty item at the end. A
685 single-character format would cause programs using this
686 function to segfault because the algorithm used to decide on
687 the length of the array mistakenly created a single-item array
688 when the format string was one character. This eventually
689 caused problems when the program attempted to test item+1
692 Thu Apr 06 21:53:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
694 * Richard Coleman threw out a lot of old MH-specific files in nmh.
695 Much of the stuff, indeed, is not worth saving, but there are
696 nuggets that are very worthwhile, and should probably be added
697 back in. Most important, IMHO, are the MH change logs, as they
698 can help answer questions like "Why is this code like this?" or
699 "How long has this been broken?" or "What was this ever used for?"
701 I've added a new file to the nmh tree called
702 ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6. It's cobbled together from the
703 mh-6.8.4/papers/mh*/MHCHANGES files. I've re-ordered the entries
704 to go from newest at the top to oldest at the bottom to match the
705 ChangeLog convention. Unfortunately there are no change logs for
706 versions of MH prior to 3 in the MH tar files available at
707 <ftp://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/mh>. Also, it appears to me that there
708 are MH-6.6 changes that aren't documented in the logs.
710 I've also added ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html. This is
711 based on mh-6.8.4/papers/changes/mh-changes.ms. The nroff format
712 and its "catman"-type output are a pain to deal with, but I was
713 loath to throw away the formatting, so I converted the file to
714 HTML. The only actual markup in the body are the "<B>" and "<U>"
715 tags, and "<" and ">" instead of '<' and '>', so it's quite
716 doable to view the file in plain ASCII mode as well. Note that
717 some of the changes this file documents as having been made in
718 MH-6.8.4 may not be present in nmh -- Richard started with 6.8.3
719 and later put in certain 6.8.4 stuff.
721 Wed Apr 05 21:09:28 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
723 * Applied Eric Schnoebelen <eric@cirr.com>'s mhshowsbr.c patch
724 fixing apparent bugs in Dan Winship's new security quoting code:
726 Since upgrading, I've been getting the following errors
727 while attempting to process some MIME messages:
729 (1) Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
734 (2) line 1/10 (END)Segmentation fault (core dumped)
736 (2) appears to be due to the testing of an unset pointer in
737 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux(). (1) appears to be caused by
738 mis-quoting a filename being handed to the shell in
739 mhshowsbr.c:show_content_aux().
741 Resolving the pointer reference issue in
742 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux() turned up a similar mis-quoting
743 problem in the routine.
745 Tue Mar 28 16:17:39 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
747 * Applied Todd.Miller@courtesan.com's patch to dropsbr.c to
748 prevent core dumping on packf. Here's the note from his message:
750 Since sizeof(buffer) == sizeof(tmpbuffer) packf will dump
751 core on a file w/o a From line with a line >= BUFSIZ.
752 I noticed this because I had a junk file in my mail
755 Fri Mar 17 11:59:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
757 * wesley.craig@umich.edu did not document his previous KPOP patch,
758 so I did so, and asked him to check what I wrote. Unfortunately
759 he didn't notice my misunderstanding of his patch. I wrote that
760 if you #define POPSERVICE "kpop", inc and msgchk will use KPOP
761 exclusively, but if you leave it as "pop3", you can use Wesley's
762 new -kpop switch on a given invocation. Instead, however, -kpop
763 turned out to be necessary on every invocation, and a KPOP user
764 complained. Applied Wesley's new patch, which makes things work
765 like I thought his original patch did. After that, did one more
766 clarifying pass to the documentation in inc.man and msgchk.man.
768 Wed Mar 15 18:45:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
770 * When I fixed the long-standing makedir() bugs in January, I had
771 the code call strtoul(..., 0), which I believed to be safe as all
772 modes specified as ASCII constants in the nmh code started with a
773 leading zero (signifying octal), which I did as it would work if
774 internal constants were ever changed to hex. Unfortunately I was
775 unaware of the "Folder-Protect:" .mh_profile entry, which
776 mh-profile.man documents as an octal-only constant, with no
777 leading zero required. I've changed the strtoul() call to an
778 atooi() call and removed the misleading leading zeroes on the
779 ASCII octal constants in the code and man pages. Also changed the
780 "Folder-Protect:" example in the man page to something more
781 interesting than a duplication of the default.
783 * When I added my --enable-masquerade option, you'll note that I
784 didn't make it --enable-nmh-masquerade. I find the --enable-nmh-*
785 options too wordy and I'm not sure why Richard went that route.
786 I've renamed them to just --enable-*, but the old versions will
787 still work as well (they just aren't advertised).
789 * Added a line to the "nmh configuration" output saying whether
792 * Added a new README.developers file. From the file:
794 This file is intended to provide a few tips for anyone doing
795 development on nmh. Developers who learn things "the hard
796 way" about the nmh codebase (as opposed to local info best
797 encoded in a comment) are encouraged to share their wisdom
800 Currently the topics are "autoconf files" and "directory structure".
802 Tue Mar 14 12:41:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
804 * Applied, after some finessing,
805 Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s --with-smtpservers patch:
807 Here's a patch that allows you to add
809 --with-smtpservers=<some.host.name>
811 to the ./configure command line to set the "servers: " line in
812 etc/mts.conf. Around here, we use "mailhost" so that all
813 machines in the current domain just talk to a central machine
814 and nothing else runs an MTA. Now, I can use
816 --with-smtpservers=mailhost
818 instead of having to remember to fix this by hand (and often
819 forgetting to do so!).
821 * Inspired by Simon's patch, added an --enable-masquerade option
822 to configure. It will set the "masquerade:" line of mts.conf.
823 You may specify a subset of the three types of masquerading, like
824 --enable-masquerade="draft_from mmailid", or leave off explicit
825 arguments to enable all three types.
827 * Alphabetized the --enable and --with options in configure.in and
828 INSTALL and added documentation of the two new options to the latter.
830 * Added new dependency for mts.conf: Makefile. If this isn't
831 done, then when you reconfigure nmh with new values for
832 --enable-masquerade or --with-smtpservers, you'll fail to get an
833 updated copy of mts.conf.
835 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtimep.lex patch:
837 It seems that some MUA's didn't handle y2k very well - ELM
838 seems to be one of them, and Ultrix's DXmail (based on MH!).
839 I've got a few emails this month that look like:
841 575 Jan 00 Xxxxxx Xxxx 3603 ...
843 22+ Jan 00 Xxx Xxxxx 1771 ...
845 The first has "15 Jan 100" as the date and the second has
846 "19 Jan 00" as the date. The following works around this so
847 that scan, show, sortm, etc work ok.
849 I put Simon's patch under the control of a new #define called
850 FIX_NON_Y2K_COMPLIANT_MUA_DATES. There's some commentary in
851 acconfig.h about when you might not want to #define it.
853 * Created new dtimep.c-lexed with Simon's change using dtimep.lex
854 lexed on Solaris 2.6. Added missing dependency in
855 zotnet/tws/Makefile.in for dtimep.c: dtimep.c-lexed.
857 * Added scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD format files.
859 Mon Mar 13 21:32:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
861 * Applied Sullivan N. Beck <sbeck@cise.ufl.edu>'s mhshow-suffix patch:
863 With the patch below, you can add lines like:
865 mhshow-suffix-application/msword: .doc
866 mhshow-suffix-application/PostScript: .ps
868 to the mhn.defaults file to append the given suffix to a
869 scratch file. This allows applications which require a
870 certain suffix to run properly.
872 * Removed -force_html from lynx entry in mhn.defaults.sh (I
873 believe older versions of lynx lack that option) and added
874 "mhshow-suffix-text/html: .html".
876 * Modified username_extension masquerading to only use the
877 extended address on generated [Resent-]From: lines and SMTP
878 envelope From:. With Neil's original implementation, nmh's global
879 idea of the username was changed, which would result in inc lying
880 and saying you had no new mail because it was looking for a
881 mailbox called, for instance, "dan-nmh" (where username was "dan"
882 and $USERNAME_EXTENSION was "-nmh").
884 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtime.c patch:
886 There's a wrap-around problem that affects the implementation
887 of Zeller's congruence in dtime.c. This causes the day-of-week
888 calculations to fail for dates after Feb 29, 2000 (probably up
889 until some year far in the future).
891 Mon Mar 06 12:20:20 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
893 * Applied Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s msh.c patch:
895 I finally tracked down the problem in msh that was causing
896 errors whenever I tried to examine a 'mmdf' style mailbox.
898 It turns out that not enough memory was being allocated with
899 calloc(), causing memory pointers to be overwritten and
902 Fri Mar 03 16:07:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
904 * Changed the new "plussed_user" option to mts.conf's
905 "masquerade:" to "username_extension" after getting feedback from
906 qmail users, who use '-' as a separator rather than '+'. Removed
907 checking of $USERPLUS variable. Now check $USERNAME_EXTENSION,
908 which needs to include the appropriate separator for your MTA
909 ('-', '+', or whatever) as its first character.
911 Thu Mar 02 23:04:30 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
913 * Added a new "boolean" type to mh.h and TRUE and FALSE constants.
915 * Added a note to DIFFERENCES stating that it's out-of-date
916 (Richard was the last one to update it) and that we should
917 consider only documenting incompatibilities with MH there.
919 * Implemented (and documented) a third kind of username
920 masquerading: "plussed user" masquerading. This one was suggested
921 by Neil Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>. It's based on sendmail's
922 "plussed user" feature, where mail sent to <user>+<string> will be
923 delivered to <user>. When it's enabled, it's controlled by the
924 $USERPLUS environment variable. How is it enabled? Well, that
927 * Renamed the "mmailid:" setting in mts.conf to "masquerade:", and
928 changed it so that rather than being a boolean, it can be set to
929 any combination of the three values "draft_from", "mmailid", and
930 "plussed_user". Thus it is now possible to enable the three types
931 of masquerading individually.
933 * Fixed a bug with "mmailid" masquerading (dating back to MH?)
934 where if it was turned on, ','s would no longer be considered
935 GECOS field delimiters.
937 Wed Mar 01 23:30:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
939 * Changed the GECOS-field '&' translation behavior to be
940 controlled by the BSD42 #define rather than GCOS_HACK, since it's
941 apparently always appropriate on OSes where BSD42 is #defined, and
942 never appropriate on any other OSes. Thanks to Kimmo Suominen for
943 responding to my "What is this code here for?" comment in mts.c
944 and explaining the feature.
946 Mon Feb 28 21:50:29 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
948 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3+dev (ideally this should be
949 done by whoever makes a release tar file, immediately after doing
952 * Applied Paul Fox <pgf-spam@foxharp.boston.ma.us>'s scansbr.c
953 patch, posted to comp.mail.mh, which he says prevents loss of mail
954 when inc'ing into a full filesystem.
956 * Changed "echo > stamp-h.in" in Makefile.in to "date > stamp-h.in"
957 so that stamp-h.in will be different each time configure.in and
958 related files are changed, making it easier to check it in (which
959 is necessary to prevent unnecessary autoconf calls).
961 * My declaration of initgroups() in slocal.c to eliminate the "no
962 prototype" warning wasn't portable (FreeBSD 3.[23] choked). Now
963 use AC_EGREP_HEADER to see where initgroups() is declared, if
966 Sun Feb 20 12:17:15 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
968 * Fix security hole in mhshowsbr.c which allowed untrusted shell
971 * Released nmh 1.0.3.
973 Thu Feb 10 10:54:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
975 * Oops. %-escapes on mhstore lines in mhn.defaults.sh should not
976 be surrounded by single quotes, as a shell is not spawned when
977 just saving files, and the filenames will end up with literal
978 quotes embedded in them.
980 Fri Feb 04 12:29:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
982 * Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
983 got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
984 the -help output. One theory is that they were making reference
985 to the fact that clearly you know about the -help option since
986 you're currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea
987 to overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
988 supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
991 The other theory is that because you can say something like
992 "mhstore -" and get "mhstore: - ambiguous. It matches" followed
993 by the same list of switches you get with -help, they were saying
994 you can "sorta" abbreviate "-help" as "-". You don't get the
995 "Usage:" string, though, so it's not really the same thing.
997 Thu Feb 03 17:52:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
999 * Applied wesley.craig@umich.edu's KPOP patches. According to him:
1001 The following patch fixes a problem with requesting a
1002 service key for a machine that has multiple 'A' records. It
1003 also makes "-kpop" a command line option, for users who
1004 would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".
1006 Did no testing of the new features, as I don't have access to a
1009 * Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
1011 * Modified INSTALL and config.h.in to reflect the new -kpop feature.
1013 Fri Jan 28 17:39:24 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1015 * All %-escapes in mhn.defaults that actually expand to something
1016 should be surrounded by single quotes. Added quotes to the ones
1017 in mhn.defaults.sh that were missing them.
1019 * Added check for lynx to write mhshow-show-text/html line in
1022 Thu Jan 27 12:22:25 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1024 * makedir() had multiple bugs dating back to MH. An octal
1025 constant was apparently being interpreted as decimal, resulting in
1026 directories with no user read or execute permissions, making
1027 nested directory creation fail. And there wasn't even an
1028 _attempt_ to set desired permissions (e.g. from "Folder-Protect:"
1029 in .mh_profile) on the outer directories of a nested directory.
1031 * A second `make install' would always fail because the check for
1032 whether mh_profile.5 existed was written incorrectly.
1034 Wed Jan 26 02:22:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1036 * Added documentation on both types of masquerading to post's man
1039 Tue Jan 25 22:58:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1041 * Doug's portability fix of my setgid inc autodetection had a
1042 caching bug -- if you re-ran configure, uip/Makefile would be
1043 corrupted, and installation would bomb out on OSes where inc needs
1046 * Implemented a new kind of email address masquerading. Usually,
1047 when a user writes a custom "From:" header in a draft, nmh uses it
1048 rather than generating one. However, the user's true address is
1049 used in the SMTP envelope "From:" and is revealed in the "Sender:"
1050 header. Now, when mmailid is set to non-zero, the envelope
1051 "From:" uses the address specified in the draft "From:" header,
1052 and there is no "Sender:" header. This is useful when sending on
1053 behalf of a remote POP3 account or when remote mail robots
1054 incorrectly use the envelope "From:" in preference to the body
1055 "From:". This processing has only been implemented for post, not
1056 for the undocumented spost (which was already missing some "From:"
1057 processing that post has).
1059 Mon Jan 24 22:26:06 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1061 * Got rid of the rest of the gcc -Wall warnings that I didn't have
1062 time for on 1999-07-15 (and, it would seem, some new ones people
1063 introduced since then). The primary ones were the warnings that
1064 default prototypes were being used for [v]snprintf() and
1065 str[n]casecmp(). As of right now, there are _no_ compilation
1066 warnings except on dtimep.c-lexed (at least under AIX 4.1.5 and
1069 Sun Jan 2 23:42:18 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1071 * Move mhtest from bindir to libdir.
1073 * Move sendfiles from libdir to bindir.
1075 * Updated sendfiles manpage to reflect this change.
1077 * Added documentation for -build and -file switches to repl and
1078 forw manpages (patch from Peter Maydell).
1080 * Fixed interaction between specifying -cc in profile and -group on
1083 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1085 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
1086 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
1087 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
1090 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1092 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
1093 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
1094 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
1095 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
1096 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
1097 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).
1099 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1101 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
1103 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1105 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
1106 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
1107 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
1108 caught again. This works for now.
1110 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
1112 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1114 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
1115 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
1117 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1119 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
1120 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
1122 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
1124 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
1126 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1128 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
1129 changes. Both need more cleanup.
1131 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1133 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
1134 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
1135 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
1136 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
1137 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
1140 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1142 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
1143 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
1144 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
1146 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
1147 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
1150 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1152 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
1153 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
1154 to a directory on another device with more free space.
1156 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1158 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
1159 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
1161 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1163 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
1166 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
1167 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
1169 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
1170 macros, regardless of platform.
1172 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
1173 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1175 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
1176 with x-conversions=gzip.
1178 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1180 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
1183 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
1184 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
1185 implicit definition of ioctl().
1187 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
1188 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
1189 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
1190 want to mess with them.
1192 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1194 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
1195 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
1197 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
1198 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
1200 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
1201 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
1202 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
1204 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
1205 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
1206 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
1208 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
1209 function initgroups.
1211 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
1214 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
1215 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
1218 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
1219 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
1222 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
1223 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
1227 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1229 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
1230 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
1231 preventing compilation on at least linux.
1233 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
1234 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
1236 Thu Sep 09 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1238 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
1240 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
1241 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
1242 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
1243 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
1245 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
1246 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
1248 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1250 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
1252 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1254 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
1255 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
1257 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1259 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
1260 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
1262 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
1263 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
1264 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
1265 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
1267 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
1268 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
1270 Sat Jun 09 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1272 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
1273 substitute it for mktemp if available.
1275 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1277 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
1278 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
1281 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
1283 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
1285 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
1287 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
1288 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
1290 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
1291 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
1292 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
1294 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
1295 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
1296 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
1298 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
1299 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
1300 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1302 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
1303 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
1306 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
1307 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1309 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
1310 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1312 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
1313 <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1315 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
1316 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
1317 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1319 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
1320 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1322 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
1323 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
1324 <elleron@servtech.com>.
1326 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
1327 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
1330 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
1331 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
1333 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
1334 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
1335 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
1336 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
1338 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
1339 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
1341 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1345 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
1346 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
1347 would not be changed.
1349 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
1350 one from the Apache web server.
1352 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
1353 (this should have been done a long time ago).
1355 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
1356 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
1357 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
1359 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
1361 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
1363 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
1364 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
1367 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
1368 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
1369 removes a bad race condition.
1371 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
1374 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
1375 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
1376 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
1378 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
1379 sequence information.
1381 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
1382 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
1384 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
1387 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
1390 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
1392 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
1393 interpret 034 as octal.
1395 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
1397 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
1398 mhstore, and mhbuild.
1400 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
1401 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
1403 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
1404 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
1406 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
1407 in the c_cefile structure when building.
1409 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
1410 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
1412 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
1413 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
1414 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
1416 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
1417 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
1418 and mhshow. Updated man pages
1420 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
1422 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
1424 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
1425 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
1428 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
1430 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
1431 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
1433 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
1434 header field information.
1436 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
1437 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
1439 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
1440 values when parsing a content.
1442 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
1443 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
1445 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
1446 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
1448 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
1449 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1451 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
1452 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
1454 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
1456 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
1458 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
1460 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
1462 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
1463 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
1466 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
1467 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
1469 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
1470 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
1471 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
1472 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
1473 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
1474 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
1477 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1479 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
1480 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
1481 buffer length checks for this parameter.
1483 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
1484 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
1486 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1488 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
1489 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
1490 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
1491 of the limits on the length of command lines.
1493 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
1494 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
1497 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
1498 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
1499 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
1500 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
1503 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1505 * Released nmh-0.27.
1507 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
1508 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
1510 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
1511 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
1512 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
1513 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
1516 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
1517 mhbuild returns an error.
1519 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
1520 rename the draft file.
1522 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
1523 use a global variable.
1525 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
1526 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
1528 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
1529 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
1531 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
1532 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
1533 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
1535 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
1536 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
1538 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
1539 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
1542 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
1543 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
1546 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
1547 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
1549 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
1550 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
1551 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
1553 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
1554 to new function output_content_folder.
1556 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
1557 new function output_content_file.
1559 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
1560 to new function parse_format_string.
1562 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
1563 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
1564 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
1565 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
1567 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
1568 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
1569 message/external file from ftp.
1571 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
1572 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
1573 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
1575 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
1576 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
1579 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
1582 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
1583 new file mhstoresbr.c
1585 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
1588 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
1589 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
1591 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
1592 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
1594 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
1595 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
1596 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
1598 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
1600 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
1602 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
1603 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
1606 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
1607 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
1609 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
1612 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
1614 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1616 * Released nmh-0.26.
1618 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
1619 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
1620 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
1621 is still the same (dashstuffing).
1623 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
1624 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
1625 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
1626 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
1627 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
1629 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
1630 But it is not on by default.
1632 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
1633 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
1635 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
1637 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
1639 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
1641 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
1643 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
1644 number of the "cur" message when packing.
1646 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1648 * Released nmh-0.25.
1650 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
1651 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
1652 uses the original name of the library.
1654 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
1655 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
1658 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
1659 list_content and list_debug.
1661 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
1663 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,

1668 * Released nmh-0.24.
1670 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
1672 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
1673 are given, that order doesn't matter.
1675 * Fix bug in seq_list.c when realloc'ing for
1676 large sequence line.

1685 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan
1686 content, decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary
1687 string). I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
1689 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
1690 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
1693 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
1695 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
1697 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
1699 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
1700 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
1702 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
1703 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.

1730 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
1731 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
1733 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
1735 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
1736 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
1737 entry point for parsing MIME files.
1739 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
1740 source message on the standard input.
1742 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
1744 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
1745 rather than -rfc934mode.
1747 * Fix mhbuild, so that Content-Description and RFC-822 comments
1748 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
1751 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
1752 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).

1757 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1759 * Released nmh-0.21.
1761 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
1762 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.

1776 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
1778 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
1779 header fields as per RFC-2047.
1781 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
1782 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
1783 spaces between encoded word are.
1785 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
1787 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
1788 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
1790 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
1791 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
1792 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
1794 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
1796 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
1797 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
1799 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.

1806 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
1809 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
1810 permissions, not write permissions.
1812 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
1813 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
1815 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
1818 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1820 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
1822 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
1823 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
1825 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
1826 message contains valid character set.
1828 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
1829 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
1831 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
1832 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
1834 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
1835 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
1836 between an encoded word and normal text.
1838 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
1839 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
1841 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
1842 as a RFC-2047 header field.
1844 * The command install-mh now recognizes the switches -version
1847 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
1848 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
1851 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
1852 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
1854 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
1855 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
1857 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
1859 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1861 * Released nmh-0.20.
1863 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
1865 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.

1868 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
1869 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
1871 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
1872 and the To: line was missing.
1874 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
1876 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1878 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
1880 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
1881 watch the POP transaction.
1883 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
1884 first, and use it if available.
1886 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
1887 first, and use it if available.
1889 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1891 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
1893 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
1894 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
1895 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
1898 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
1899 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
1900 returns the state FLDPLUS.
1902 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
1903 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
1906 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
1908 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
1909 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
1911 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
1913 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
1914 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
1916 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
1917 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
1918 message to which you are replying.
1920 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
1921 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
1922 making group replies.
1924 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
1926 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1928 * Released nmh-0.19.
1930 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
1931 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
1933 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
1934 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
1935 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
1936 to the end of the man page.
1938 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
1939 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
1940 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
1941 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
1942 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
1943 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
1945 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
1948 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
1949 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
1950 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
1952 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
1953 the next available number above the message number you wish
1956 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
1957 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
1959 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
1960 file sbr/seq_print.c
1962 * flist will now update the current folder.
1964 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
1965 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
1966 but now undocumented.
1968 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
1971 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
1972 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
1974 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
1976 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
1977 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
1979 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1981 * Released nmh-0.18.
1983 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
1984 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
1985 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
1987 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
1988 retains the public/private status of sequences.
1990 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
1991 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
1992 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
1993 previous public/private status.
1995 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
1998 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
2001 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
2002 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
2003 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
2005 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
2006 take option to determine whether it should get current
2007 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
2008 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
2010 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
2012 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
2013 wait for stopped processes.
2015 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
2016 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
2018 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2020 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
2022 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
2023 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
2025 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
2026 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
2028 * Change the way that memory for message status is
2029 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
2030 the folder/message structure. This required changing
2031 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
2033 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
2036 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
2039 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
2041 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
2042 the debugging output.
2044 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
2045 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
2047 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2049 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
2051 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
2052 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
2054 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
2056 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
2057 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
2058 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
2059 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
2060 in the given sequence.
2062 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
2063 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
2064 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
2065 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
2066 subdirectories of a given directory.
2068 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
2069 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
2070 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
2072 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
2073 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
2075 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
2077 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
2080 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
2081 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
2082 fields are now calculated at runtime.
2084 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
2085 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
2086 are calculated at runtime.
2088 Sun Nov 30 19:14:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2090 * Released nmh-0.18-pre2.
2092 * Add paragraph to man page for install-mh and to INSTALL file
2093 about checking for global mh.profile.
2095 * Renamed m_find() to context_find().
2096 Renamed m_replace() to context_replace().
2097 Renamed m_delete() to context_del().
2098 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
2099 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
2100 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
2102 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
2103 adding message to folder itself.
2105 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
2106 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
2107 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
2110 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
2111 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
2114 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
2115 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
2116 is the same as the direct smtp code).
2118 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
2119 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
2121 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
2122 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
2123 code to use it yet).
2125 Thu Nov 13 18:42:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2127 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.
2129 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never
2130 called with a value larger than 30 mintues.
2132 * Fixed race condition in rmm and refile, so that
2133 context is updated before external rmmproc is called.
2135 * Removed all the OVERHEAD code.
2137 * Move code to add message to folder from refile.c
2140 Fri Jul 25 19:39:29 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2142 * Did some rearranging of the internals of inc.c.
2144 * Make -inplace the default for anno, forw, dist, and repl.
2146 * Changed --enable-smtp to --with-mts={smtp,sendmail}
2148 * Created new directory mts/sendmail for direct sendmail
2149 interface (although it currently still uses SMTP).
2151 * Removed all the TMA (trusted mail agent) code
2153 * Removed all the TTYD (terminal access daemon) code
2155 * Removed all the MF (uucp filtering) code.
2157 * Removed all the code for BERK.
2159 * Removed all the code for stand-alone delivery (MHMTS).
2161 * Split the file mts/sendmail/smail.c into sendmail.c and
2162 smtp.c. Changed the name of the directory to mts/smtp.
2164 * Changed autoconf to use @sysconfdir@ for location of
2165 configuration files.
2167 * Changed #define in mhn.c from FTP to BUILTIN_FTP.
2169 Mon Jul 21 03:22:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2171 * Released nmh-0.17.
2173 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
2175 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
2176 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
2178 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
2181 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
2182 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
2184 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
2185 number of refiled message.
2187 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
2189 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
2190 for return value of wait().
2192 * Change configure to also check /bin for "more".
2194 Sat Jul 12 00:02:23 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2196 * Released nmh-0.16.
2198 Mon Jun 23 20:13:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2200 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
2202 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
2203 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
2204 deal with binary messages, yet).
2206 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
2208 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
2210 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
2211 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
2212 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
2213 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
2214 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
2215 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
2217 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
2218 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
2220 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
2221 From MH-6.8.4 patch.
2223 * Fix double free of ctinfo in user_content when using
2224 #forw with single message. From John MacMillan (and
2227 * Changed -mhnproc switch for show, to -showmimeproc.
2229 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".
2231 * Added "mime" option to "whatnow", which calls the program
2232 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
2235 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
2238 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
2240 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
2241 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
2242 which used unsigned chars by default.
2244 Sat Jun 21 01:21:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2246 * Released nmh-0.15.
2248 * Added new form "scan.unseen" to distribution. It marks messages
2249 which are in any sequence in Unseen-Sequence.
2251 * Do some rearranging of date/time code in zotnet/tws/dtime.c
2253 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
2255 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
2258 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
2259 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
2260 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
2262 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
2263 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
2265 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
2267 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
2268 they conflict with defines on AIX.
2270 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
2271 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
2272 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
2273 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
2275 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
2276 and put in own subroutine.
2278 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
2279 and put in own subroutine.
2281 * Moved code to remove messages from folder into own
2282 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and
2283 refile.c to use new routine.
2285 Fri May 16 06:09:31 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2287 * Renamed m_seqok to seq_nameok.
2289 * Changed m_setunseen, msh, mshcmds, flist, and scan to use
2292 * Changed m_seqflag to return the number of a sequence rather
2293 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
2294 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
2296 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
2299 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before
2300 adding message to sequence.
2302 * Renamed function m_setvis to m_setunseen, and renamed

2410 will suppress the display of the message header.
2412 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
2414 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c

2431 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
2433 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
2434 folder/message structure when done with folder.
2436 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is

2499 * Released nmh-0.08.
2501 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
2502 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of

2510 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
2513 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
2514 rather than mmdf format.
2516 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
2517 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
2518 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
2519 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
2521 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
2523 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2525 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
2528 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2529 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2530 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
2532 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2533 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to

2536 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2538 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
2539 can still easily change this in config.h).
2541 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
2542 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
2543 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
2545 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2547 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather

2562 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
2564 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
2565 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
2568 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
2569 built-in FTP client in mhn.

2582 * Released nmh-0.06.
2584 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
2585 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
2587 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
2588 many such machines around anymore.
2590 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
2591 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
2593 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
2594 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
2596 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2598 * Check lex generated file in zotnet/tws and use
2599 pre-generated version if necessary.
2601 * Released nmh-0.05.
2603 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
2604 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
2605 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
2606 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
2608 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
2609 be linked in one pass.
2611 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2613 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
2614 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
2616 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2618 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
2620 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2622 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
2623 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
2624 become the current folder.
2626 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2628 * Released nmh-0.04.

2633 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2635 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
2636 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
2637 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
2639 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2641 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
2642 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
2644 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2646 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
2647 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
2650 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
2651 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
2653 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2655 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
2656 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
2657 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
2658 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
2659 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
2660 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
2662 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2664 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
2665 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
2667 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
2668 a file (currently need to specify full path).
2670 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2672 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
2673 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
2675 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2677 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
2678 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
2679 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
2681 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2683 * Released nmh-0.03.
2685 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
2686 .mh_sequence file existed.
2688 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
2689 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
2691 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
2692 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
2695 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2697 * Changed flist option -unseen to -[no]all. Cleaned up
2700 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2702 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
2703 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
2704 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
2706 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2708 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
2709 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
2710 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
2712 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2714 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL
2715 and allocate its own buffer. Borrowed from zsh.
2717 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
2719 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2721 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
2722 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
2723 directory from where the source code is located.
2725 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2727 * Released nmh-0.02.

2747 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
2748 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
2749 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
2750 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
2751 rather than in script.
2753 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2755 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
2757 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with

2762 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
2763 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
2765 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
2766 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
2767 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
2768 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
2771 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2773 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
2774 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.
2776 * Fixed configure test so that termcap variable ospeed is
2779 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2781 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
2783 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included

2786 Fri Dec 20 02:29:37 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2788 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
2789 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
2791 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2793 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
2794 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
2795 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
2796 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
2797 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
2798 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
2800 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2802 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
2804 * Released nmh-0.01.
2806 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
2807 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
2808 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
2811 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2813 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
2816 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2818 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
2819 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
2821 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2823 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
2824 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
2825 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
2826 script to find_program.
2828 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2830 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
2831 speed up -recurse option.
2833 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
2834 yet, but it compiles :-)
2836 * Changed default location for install to
2837 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
2838 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
2839 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
2842 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
2843 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
2844 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
