3 * Doug informed me that the way I had restored the "lost" version
4 histories was wrong, because `cvs checkout's of old versions of
5 nmh wouldn't work properly. It occurs to me that this could be
6 fixed by simply deleting those tags in the new-location *,v files,
7 but oh well. I'm putting everything back to the way Doug
8 originally had it. To get the old version history for a file that
9 used to be in the top directory, you'll need to "blindly" do a
10 `cvs log' there (even though you won't have a local copy of the
11 file in that directory). `cvs diff' will no longer be able to
12 diff pre-move versions vs. post-move versions -- you'll have to do
13 a lot of manual gyrations with `cvs checkout' and then use `diff'.
15 Sat May 06 08:28:09 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
17 * Restored lost version histories for those moved files by doing a
18 manual `mv' in the CVSROOT on mhost. CVS badly needs a `cvs mv'
19 command so that you can move files (without having physical access
20 to the CVSROOT) without losing versioning. Put MACHINES back at
21 the top level as it needs to be read before building. Fixed DIST
22 variable in {.,docs}/Makefile.in to reflect that and to add
23 missing entry for "INSTALL" file.
25 Sat May 06 13:13:07 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
27 * Re-cleaned up nmh documentation (by moving things to docs
28 subdir) and modified Makefile & configure.in to handle the change.
30 Mon Apr 17 21:28:40 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
32 * Scott Blachowicz pointed out that the configure --help output
33 for --enable-masquerade was misleading. Clarified.
35 Mon Apr 17 19:01:00 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
37 * APOP support can be compiled in to inc and msgchk using
40 * To access an APOP host, specify -apop on the command line
41 along with any -host or -user option.
43 Fri Apr 14 23:10:44 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
45 * Upped the version number to 1.0.4+dev until the next nmh release.
47 * Added a "releasing nmh" section to README.developers, while the
48 process was fresh in my mind.
50 Fri Apr 14 18:21:34 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
52 * Added new files README.developers, ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6, and
53 ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html to DIST target in Makefile.in.
57 Tue Apr 11 21:37:03 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
59 * Applied Brian Campbell <bacam@tardis.ed.ac.uk>'s mhn.defaults.sh
62 It appears that there shouldn't be quotes around the %s in the
63 iso-8859-1 charset entry; xterm passes the remaining arguments
64 to the program, quoting them means that xterm thinks they're
65 part of the program's name.
67 This %s isn't the same as the "Insert content subtype" one from
68 mhshow-show-* -- it doesn't come from MIME headers and is safe not
71 Sun Apr 09 13:03:59 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
73 * added check in fmt_compile() to handle a single-character
74 format string. fmt_compile() depends on having an array of
75 format characters with an empty item at the end. A
76 single-character format would cause programs using this
77 function to segfault because the algorithm used to decide on
78 the length of the array mistakenly created a single-item array
79 when the format string was one character. This eventually
80 caused problems when the program attempted to test item+1
83 Thu Apr 06 21:53:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
85 * Richard Coleman threw out a lot of old MH-specific files in nmh.
86 Much of the stuff, indeed, is not worth saving, but there are
87 nuggets that are very worthwhile, and should probably be added
88 back in. Most important, IMHO, are the MH change logs, as they
89 can help answer questions like "Why is this code like this?" or
90 "How long has this been broken?" or "What was this ever used for?"
92 I've added a new file to the nmh tree called
93 ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6. It's cobbled together from the
94 mh-6.8.4/papers/mh*/MHCHANGES files. I've re-ordered the entries
95 to go from newest at the top to oldest at the bottom to match the
96 ChangeLog convention. Unfortunately there are no change logs for
97 versions of MH prior to 3 in the MH tar files available at
98 <ftp://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/mh>. Also, it appears to me that there
99 are MH-6.6 changes that aren't documented in the logs.
101 I've also added ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html. This is
102 based on mh-6.8.4/papers/changes/mh-changes.ms. The nroff format
103 and its "catman"-type output are a pain to deal with, but I was
104 loath to throw away the formatting, so I converted the file to
105 HTML. The only actual markup in the body are the "<B>" and "<U>"
106 tags, and "<" and ">" instead of '<' and '>', so it's quite
107 doable to view the file in plain ASCII mode as well. Note that
108 some of the changes this file documents as having been made in
109 MH-6.8.4 may not be present in nmh -- Richard started with 6.8.3
110 and later put in certain 6.8.4 stuff.
112 Wed Apr 05 21:09:28 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
114 * Applied Eric Schnoebelen <eric@cirr.com>'s mhshowsbr.c patch
115 fixing apparent bugs in Dan Winship's new security quoting code:
117 Since upgrading, I've been getting the following errors
118 while attempting to process some MIME messages:
120 (1) Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
125 (2) line 1/10 (END)Segmentation fault (core dumped)
127 (2) appears to be due to the testing of an unset pointer in
128 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux(). (1) appears to be caused by
129 mis-quoting a filename being handed to the shell in
130 mhshowsbr.c:show_content_aux().
132 Resolving the pointer reference issue in
133 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux() turned up a similar mis-quoting
134 problem in the routine.
136 Tue Mar 28 16:17:39 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
138 * Applied Todd.Miller@courtesan.com's patch to dropsbr.c to
139 prevent core dumping on packf. Here's the note from his message:
141 Since sizeof(buffer) == sizeof(tmpbuffer) packf will dump
142 core on a file w/o a From line with a line >= BUFSIZ.
143 I noticed this because I had a junk file in my mail
146 Fri Mar 17 11:59:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
148 * wesley.craig@umich.edu did not document his previous KPOP patch,
149 so I did so, and asked him to check what I wrote. Unfortunately
150 he didn't notice my misunderstanding of his patch. I wrote that
151 if you #define POPSERVICE "kpop", inc and msgchk will use KPOP
152 exclusively, but if you leave it as "pop3", you can use Wesley's
153 new -kpop switch on a given invocation. Instead, however, -kpop
154 turned out to be necessary on every invocation, and a KPOP user
155 complained. Applied Wesley's new patch, which makes things work
156 like I thought his original patch did. After that, did one more
157 clarifying pass to the documentation in inc.man and msgchk.man.
159 Wed Mar 15 18:45:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
161 * When I fixed the long-standing makedir() bugs in January, I had
162 the code call strtoul(..., 0), which I believed to be safe as all
163 modes specified as ASCII constants in the nmh code started with a
164 leading zero (signifying octal), which I did as it would work if
165 internal constants were ever changed to hex. Unfortunately I was
166 unaware of the "Folder-Protect:" .mh_profile entry, which
167 mh-profile.man documents as an octal-only constant, with no
168 leading zero required. I've changed the strtoul() call to an
169 atooi() call and removed the misleading leading zeroes on the
170 ASCII octal constants in the code and man pages. Also changed the
171 "Folder-Protect:" example in the man page to something more
172 interesting than a duplication of the default.
174 * When I added my --enable-masquerade option, you'll note that I
175 didn't make it --enable-nmh-masquerade. I find the --enable-nmh-*
176 options too wordy and I'm not sure why Richard went that route.
177 I've renamed them to just --enable-*, but the old versions will
178 still work as well (they just aren't advertised).
180 * Added a line to the "nmh configuration" output saying whether
183 * Added a new README.developers file. From the file:
185 This file is intended to provide a few tips for anyone doing
186 development on nmh. Developers who learn things "the hard
187 way" about the nmh codebase (as opposed to local info best
188 encoded in a comment) are encouraged to share their wisdom
191 Currently the topics are "autoconf files" and "directory structure".
193 Tue Mar 14 12:41:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
195 * Applied, after some finessing,
196 Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s --with-smtpservers patch:
198 Here's a patch that allows you to add
200 --with-smtpservers=<some.host.name>
202 to the ./configure command line to set the "servers: " line in
203 etc/mts.conf. Around here, we use "mailhost" so that all
204 machines in the current domain just talk to a central machine
205 and nothing else runs an MTA. Now, I can use
207 --with-smtpservers=mailhost
209 instead of having to remember to fix this by hand (and often
210 forgetting to do so!).
212 * Inspired by Simon's patch, added an --enable-masquerade option
213 to configure. It will set the "masquerade:" line of mts.conf.
214 You may specify a subset of the three types of masquerading, like
215 --enable-masquerade="draft_from mmailid", or leave off explicit
216 arguments to enable all three types.
218 * Alphabetized the --enable and --with options in configure.in and
219 INSTALL and added documentation of the two new options to the latter.
221 * Added new dependency for mts.conf: Makefile. If this isn't
222 done, then when you reconfigure nmh with new values for
223 --enable-masquerade or --with-smtpservers, you'll fail to get an
224 updated copy of mts.conf.
226 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtimep.lex patch:
228 It seems that some MUA's didn't handle y2k very well - ELM
229 seems to be one of them, and Ultrix's DXmail (based on MH!).
230 I've got a few emails this month that look like:
232 575 Jan 00 Xxxxxx Xxxx 3603 ...
234 22+ Jan 00 Xxx Xxxxx 1771 ...
236 The first has "15 Jan 100" as the date and the second has
237 "19 Jan 00" as the date. The following works around this so
238 that scan, show, sortm, etc work ok.
240 I put Simon's patch under the control of a new #define called
241 FIX_NON_Y2K_COMPLIANT_MUA_DATES. There's some commentary in
242 acconfig.h about when you might not want to #define it.
244 * Created new dtimep.c-lexed with Simon's change using dtimep.lex
245 lexed on Solaris 2.6. Added missing dependency in
246 zotnet/tws/Makefile.in for dtimep.c: dtimep.c-lexed.
248 * Added scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD format files.
250 Mon Mar 13 21:32:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
252 * Applied Sullivan N. Beck <sbeck@cise.ufl.edu>'s mhshow-suffix patch:
254 With the patch below, you can add lines like:
256 mhshow-suffix-application/msword: .doc
257 mhshow-suffix-application/PostScript: .ps
259 to the mhn.defaults file to append the given suffix to a
260 scratch file. This allows applications which require a
261 certain suffix to run properly.
263 * Removed -force_html from lynx entry in mhn.defaults.sh (I
264 believe older versions of lynx lack that option) and added
265 "mhshow-suffix-text/html: .html".
267 * Modified username_extension masquerading to only use the
268 extended address on generated [Resent-]From: lines and SMTP
269 envelope From:. With Neil's original implementation, nmh's global
270 idea of the username was changed, which would result in inc lying
271 and saying you had no new mail because it was looking for a
272 mailbox called, for instance, "dan-nmh" (where username was "dan"
273 and $USERNAME_EXTENSION was "-nmh").
275 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtime.c patch:
277 There's a wrap-around problem that affects the implementation
278 of Zeller's congruence in dtime.c. This causes the day-of-week
279 calculations to fail for dates after Feb 29, 2000 (probably up
280 until some year far in the future).
282 Mon Mar 06 12:20:20 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
284 * Applied Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s msh.c patch:
286 I finally tracked down the problem in msh that was causing
287 errors whenever I tried to examine a 'mmdf' style mailbox.
289 It turns out that not enough memory was being allocated with
290 calloc(), causing memory pointers to be overwritten and
293 Fri Mar 03 16:07:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
295 * Changed the new "plussed_user" option to mts.conf's
296 "masquerade:" to "username_extension" after getting feedback from
297 qmail users, who use '-' as a separator rather than '+'. Removed
298 checking of $USERPLUS variable. Now check $USERNAME_EXTENSION,
299 which needs to include the appropriate separator for your MTA
300 ('-', '+', or whatever) as its first character.
302 Thu Mar 02 23:04:30 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
304 * Added a new "boolean" type to mh.h and TRUE and FALSE constants.
306 * Added a note to DIFFERENCES stating that it's out-of-date
307 (Richard was the last one to update it) and that we should
308 consider only documenting incompatibilities with MH there.
310 * Implemented (and documented) a third kind of username
311 masquerading: "plussed user" masquerading. This one was suggested
312 by Neil Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>. It's based on sendmail's
313 "plussed user" feature, where mail sent to <user>+<string> will be
314 delivered to <user>. When it's enabled, it's controlled by the
315 $USERPLUS environment variable. How is it enabled? Well, that
318 * Renamed the "mmailid:" setting in mts.conf to "masquerade:", and
319 changed it so that rather than being a boolean, it can be set to
320 any combination of the three values "draft_from", "mmailid", and
321 "plussed_user". Thus it is now possible to enable the three types
322 of masquerading individually.
324 * Fixed a bug with "mmailid" masquerading (dating back to MH?)
325 where if it was turned on, ','s would no longer be considered
326 GECOS field delimiters.
328 Wed Mar 01 23:30:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
330 * Changed the GECOS-field '&' translation behavior to be
331 controlled by the BSD42 #define rather than GCOS_HACK, since it's
332 apparently always appropriate on OSes where BSD42 is #defined, and
333 never appropriate on any other OSes. Thanks to Kimmo Suominen for
334 responding to my "What is this code here for?" comment in mts.c
335 and explaining the feature.
337 Mon Feb 28 21:50:29 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
339 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3+dev (ideally this should be
340 done by whoever makes a release tar file, immediately after doing
343 * Applied Paul Fox <pgf-spam@foxharp.boston.ma.us>'s scansbr.c
344 patch, posted to comp.mail.mh, which he says prevents loss of mail
345 when inc'ing into a full filesystem.
347 * Changed "echo > stamp-h.in" in Makefile.in to "date > stamp-h.in"
348 so that stamp-h.in will be different each time configure.in and
349 related files are changed, making it easier to check it in (which
350 is necessary to prevent unnecessary autoconf calls).
352 * My declaration of initgroups() in slocal.c to eliminate the "no
353 prototype" warning wasn't portable (FreeBSD 3.[23] choked). Now
354 use AC_EGREP_HEADER to see where initgroups() is declared, if
357 Sun Feb 20 12:17:15 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
359 * Fix security hole in mhshowsbr.c which allowed untrusted shell
362 * Released nmh 1.0.3.
364 Thu Feb 10 10:54:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
366 * Oops. %-escapes on mhstore lines in mhn.defaults.sh should not
367 be surrounded by single quotes, as a shell is not spawned when
368 just saving files, and the filenames will end up with literal
369 quotes embedded in them.
371 Fri Feb 04 12:29:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
373 * Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
374 got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
375 the -help output. One theory is that they were making reference
376 to the fact that clearly you know about the -help option since
377 you're currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea
378 to overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
379 supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
382 The other theory is that because you can say something like
383 "mhstore -" and get "mhstore: - ambiguous. It matches" followed
384 by the same list of switches you get with -help, they were saying
385 you can "sorta" abbreviate "-help" as "-". You don't get the
386 "Usage:" string, though, so it's not really the same thing.
388 Thu Feb 03 17:52:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
390 * Applied wesley.craig@umich.edu's KPOP patches. According to him:
392 The following patch fixes a problem with requesting a
393 service key for a machine that has multiple 'A' records. It
394 also makes "-kpop" a command line option, for users who
395 would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".
397 Did no testing of the new features, as I don't have access to a
400 * Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
402 * Modified INSTALL and config.h.in to reflect the new -kpop feature.
404 Fri Jan 28 17:39:24 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
406 * All %-escapes in mhn.defaults that actually expand to something
407 should be surrounded by single quotes. Added quotes to the ones
408 in mhn.defaults.sh that were missing them.
410 * Added check for lynx to write mhshow-show-text/html line in
413 Thu Jan 27 12:22:25 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
415 * makedir() had multiple bugs dating back to MH. An octal
416 constant was apparently being interpreted as decimal, resulting in
417 directories with no user read or execute permissions, making
418 nested directory creation fail. And there wasn't even an
419 _attempt_ to set desired permissions (e.g. from "Folder-Protect:"
420 in .mh_profile) on the outer directories of a nested directory.
422 * A second `make install' would always fail because the check for
423 whether mh_profile.5 existed was written incorrectly.
425 Wed Jan 26 02:22:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
427 * Added documentation on both types of masquerading to post's man
430 Tue Jan 25 22:58:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
432 * Doug's portability fix of my setgid inc autodetection had a
433 caching bug -- if you re-ran configure, uip/Makefile would be
434 corrupted, and installation would bomb out on OSes where inc needs
437 * Implemented a new kind of email address masquerading. Usually,
438 when a user writes a custom "From:" header in a draft, nmh uses it
439 rather than generating one. However, the user's true address is
440 used in the SMTP envelope "From:" and is revealed in the "Sender:"
441 header. Now, when mmailid is set to non-zero, the envelope
442 "From:" uses the address specified in the draft "From:" header,
443 and there is no "Sender:" header. This is useful when sending on
444 behalf of a remote POP3 account or when remote mail robots
445 incorrectly use the envelope "From:" in preference to the body
446 "From:". This processing has only been implemented for post, not
447 for the undocumented spost (which was already missing some "From:"
448 processing that post has).
450 Mon Jan 24 22:26:06 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
452 * Got rid of the rest of the gcc -Wall warnings that I didn't have
453 time for on 1999-07-15 (and, it would seem, some new ones people
454 introduced since then). The primary ones were the warnings that
455 default prototypes were being used for [v]snprintf() and
456 str[n]casecmp(). As of right now, there are _no_ compilation
457 warnings except on dtimep.c-lexed (at least under AIX 4.1.5 and
460 Sun Jan 2 23:42:18 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
462 * Move mhtest from bindir to libdir.
464 * Move sendfiles from libdir to bindir.
466 * Updated sendfiles manpage to reflect this change.
468 * Added documentation for -build and -file switches to repl and
469 forw manpages (patch from Peter Maydell).
471 * Fixed interaction between specifying -cc in profile and -group on
474 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
476 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
477 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
478 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
481 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
483 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
484 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
485 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
486 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
487 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
488 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).
490 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
492 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
494 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
496 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
497 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
498 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
499 caught again. This works for now.
501 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
503 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
505 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
506 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
508 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
510 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
511 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
513 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
515 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
517 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
519 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
520 changes. Both need more cleanup.
522 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
524 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
525 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
526 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
527 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
528 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
531 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
533 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
534 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
535 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
537 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
538 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
541 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
543 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
544 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
545 to a directory on another device with more free space.
547 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
549 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
550 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
552 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
554 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
557 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
558 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
560 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
561 macros, regardless of platform.
563 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
564 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
566 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
567 with x-conversions=gzip.
569 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
571 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
574 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
575 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
576 implicit definition of ioctl().
578 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
579 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
580 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
581 want to mess with them.
583 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
585 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
586 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
588 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
589 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
591 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
592 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
593 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
595 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
596 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
597 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
599 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
602 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
605 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
606 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
609 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
610 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
613 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
614 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
618 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
620 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
621 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
622 preventing compilation on at least linux.
624 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
625 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
627 Thu Sep 09 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
629 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
631 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
632 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
633 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
634 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
636 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
637 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
639 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
641 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
643 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
645 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
646 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
648 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
650 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
651 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
653 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
654 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
655 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
656 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
658 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
659 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
661 Sat Jun 09 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
663 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
664 substitute it for mktemp if available.
666 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
668 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
669 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
672 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
674 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
676 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
678 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
679 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
681 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
682 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
683 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
685 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
686 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
687 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
689 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
690 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
691 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
693 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
694 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
697 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
698 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
700 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
701 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
703 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
706 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
707 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
708 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
710 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
711 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
713 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
714 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
715 <elleron@servtech.com>.
717 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
718 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
721 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
722 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
724 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
725 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
726 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
727 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
729 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
730 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
732 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
736 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
737 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
738 would not be changed.
740 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
741 one from the Apache web server.
743 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
744 (this should have been done a long time ago).
746 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
747 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
748 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
750 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
752 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
754 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
755 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
758 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
759 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
760 removes a bad race condition.
762 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
765 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
766 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
767 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
769 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
770 sequence information.
772 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
773 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
775 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
778 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
781 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
783 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
784 interpret 034 as octal.
786 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
788 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
789 mhstore, and mhbuild.
791 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
792 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
794 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
795 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
797 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
798 in the c_cefile structure when building.
800 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
801 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
803 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
804 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
805 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
807 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
808 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
809 and mhshow. Updated man pages
811 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
813 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
815 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
816 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
819 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
821 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
822 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
824 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
825 header field information.
827 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
828 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
830 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
831 values when parsing a content.
833 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
834 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
836 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
837 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
839 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
840 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
842 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
843 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
845 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
847 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
849 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
851 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
853 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
854 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
857 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
858 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
860 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
861 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
862 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
863 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
864 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
865 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
868 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
870 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
871 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
872 buffer length checks for this parameter.
874 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
875 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
877 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
879 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
880 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
881 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
882 of the limits on the length of command lines.
884 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
885 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
888 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
889 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
890 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
891 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
894 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
898 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
899 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
901 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
902 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
903 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
904 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
907 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
908 mhbuild returns an error.
910 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
911 rename the draft file.
913 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
914 use a global variable.
916 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
917 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
919 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
920 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
922 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
923 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
924 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
926 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
927 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
929 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
930 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
933 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
934 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
937 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
938 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
940 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
941 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
942 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
944 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
945 to new function output_content_folder.
947 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
948 new function output_content_file.
950 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
951 to new function parse_format_string.
953 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
954 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
955 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
956 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
958 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
959 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
960 message/external file from ftp.
962 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
963 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
964 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
966 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
967 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
970 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
973 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
974 new file mhstoresbr.c
976 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
979 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
980 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
982 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
983 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
985 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
986 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
987 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
989 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
991 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
993 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
994 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
997 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
998 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
1000 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
1003 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
1005 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1007 * Released nmh-0.26.
1009 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
1010 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
1011 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
1012 is still the same (dashstuffing).
1014 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
1015 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
1016 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
1017 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
1018 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
1020 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
1021 But it is not on by default.
1023 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
1024 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
1026 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
1028 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
1030 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
1032 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
1034 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
1035 number of the "cur" message when packing.
1037 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1039 * Released nmh-0.25.
1041 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
1042 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
1043 uses the original name of the library.
1045 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
1046 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
1049 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
1050 list_content and list_debug.
1052 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
1054 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
1055 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.
1057 1998-02-27 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1059 * Released nmh-0.24.
1061 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
1063 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
1064 are given, that order doesn't matter.
1066 * Fix bug in seq_list.c when realloc'ing for
1067 large sequence line.
1069 1998-02-23 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1071 * Released nmh-0.23.
1073 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
1075 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
1076 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan
1077 content, decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary
1078 string). I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
1080 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
1081 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
1084 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
1086 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
1088 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
1090 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
1091 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
1093 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
1094 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.
1096 * Add note to MACHINES file that on Linux, configure
1097 doesn't find the functions sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
1099 * Fix configuration for machines that don't have (or find)
1100 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
1102 1998-02-11 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1104 * Released nmh-0.22.
1106 * Add a configure check for sigsetjmp. Add some conditional
1107 #define's in h/signals.h in case it's not found.
1109 * Added additional notes about -auto switch in mhn man page.
1111 * Added note about MM_CHARSET environment variable to
1112 mh-profile(5) man page.
1114 * Fix signal problem in mhn.c (change setjmp/longjmp to
1115 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp).
1117 1998-02-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1119 * Released nmh-0.22-pre1.
1121 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
1122 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
1124 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
1126 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
1127 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
1128 entry point for parsing MIME files.
1130 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
1131 source message on the standard input.
1133 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
1135 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
1136 rather than -rfc934mode.
1138 * Fix mhbuild, so that Content-Description and RFC-822 comments
1139 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
1142 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
1143 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).
1145 * Restore HP specific code to zotnet/tws/lexstring.c. Apparently
1148 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1150 * Released nmh-0.21.
1152 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
1153 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.
1155 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what transfer
1158 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what character set
1159 to use for text contents.
1161 * Removed old hpux specific code from zotnet/tws/lexstring.c
1163 1998-02-02 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1165 * Released nmh-0.21-pre2.
1167 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
1169 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
1170 header fields as per RFC-2047.
1172 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
1173 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
1174 spaces between encoded word are.
1176 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
1178 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
1179 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
1181 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
1182 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
1183 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
1185 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
1187 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
1188 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
1190 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.
1192 * Added support for %(decode) to fmtdump.c.
1194 * check_charset() now accepts US-ASCII as a subset of any
1195 ISO-8859-X character set.
1197 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
1200 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
1201 permissions, not write permissions.
1203 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
1204 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
1206 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
1209 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1211 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
1213 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
1214 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
1216 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
1217 message contains valid character set.
1219 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
1220 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
1222 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
1223 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
1225 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
1226 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
1227 between an encoded word and normal text.
1229 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
1230 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
1232 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
1233 as a RFC-2047 header field.
1235 * The command install-mh now recognizes the switches -version
1238 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
1239 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
1242 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
1243 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
1245 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
1246 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
1248 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
1250 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1252 * Released nmh-0.20.
1254 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
1256 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.
1258 * Changed the default format file for mhl (mhl.format) to
1259 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
1260 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
1262 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
1263 and the To: line was missing.
1265 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
1267 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1269 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
1271 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
1272 watch the POP transaction.
1274 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
1275 first, and use it if available.
1277 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
1278 first, and use it if available.
1280 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1282 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
1284 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
1285 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
1286 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
1289 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
1290 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
1291 returns the state FLDPLUS.
1293 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
1294 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
1297 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
1299 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
1300 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
1302 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
1304 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
1305 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
1307 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
1308 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
1309 message to which you are replying.
1311 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
1312 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
1313 making group replies.
1315 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
1317 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1319 * Released nmh-0.19.
1321 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
1322 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
1324 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
1325 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
1326 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
1327 to the end of the man page.
1329 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
1330 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
1331 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
1332 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
1333 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
1334 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
1336 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
1339 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
1340 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
1341 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
1343 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
1344 the next available number above the message number you wish
1347 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
1348 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
1350 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
1351 file sbr/seq_print.c
1353 * flist will now update the current folder.
1355 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
1356 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
1357 but now undocumented.
1359 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
1362 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
1363 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
1365 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
1367 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
1368 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
1370 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1372 * Released nmh-0.18.
1374 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
1375 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
1376 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
1378 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
1379 retains the public/private status of sequences.
1381 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
1382 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
1383 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
1384 previous public/private status.
1386 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
1389 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
1392 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
1393 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
1394 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
1396 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
1397 take option to determine whether it should get current
1398 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
1399 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
1401 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
1403 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
1404 wait for stopped processes.
1406 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
1407 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
1409 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1411 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
1413 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
1414 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
1416 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
1417 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
1419 * Change the way that memory for message status is
1420 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
1421 the folder/message structure. This required changing
1422 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
1424 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
1427 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
1430 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
1432 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
1433 the debugging output.
1435 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
1436 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
1438 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1440 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
1442 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
1443 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
1445 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
1447 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
1448 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
1449 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
1450 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
1451 in the given sequence.
1453 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
1454 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
1455 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
1456 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
1457 subdirectories of a given directory.
1459 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
1460 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
1461 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
1463 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
1464 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
1466 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
1468 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
1471 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
1472 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
1473 fields are now calculated at runtime.
1475 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
1476 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
1477 are calculated at runtime.
1479 Sun Nov 30 19:14:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1481 * Released nmh-0.18-pre2.
1483 * Add paragraph to man page for install-mh and to INSTALL file
1484 about checking for global mh.profile.
1486 * Renamed m_find() to context_find().
1487 Renamed m_replace() to context_replace().
1488 Renamed m_delete() to context_del().
1489 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
1490 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
1491 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
1493 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
1494 adding message to folder itself.
1496 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
1497 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
1498 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
1501 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
1502 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
1505 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
1506 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
1507 is the same as the direct smtp code).
1509 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
1510 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
1512 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
1513 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
1514 code to use it yet).
1516 Thu Nov 13 18:42:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1518 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.
1520 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never
1521 called with a value larger than 30 mintues.
1523 * Fixed race condition in rmm and refile, so that
1524 context is updated before external rmmproc is called.
1526 * Removed all the OVERHEAD code.
1528 * Move code to add message to folder from refile.c
1531 Fri Jul 25 19:39:29 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1533 * Did some rearranging of the internals of inc.c.
1535 * Make -inplace the default for anno, forw, dist, and repl.
1537 * Changed --enable-smtp to --with-mts={smtp,sendmail}
1539 * Created new directory mts/sendmail for direct sendmail
1540 interface (although it currently still uses SMTP).
1542 * Removed all the TMA (trusted mail agent) code
1544 * Removed all the TTYD (terminal access daemon) code
1546 * Removed all the MF (uucp filtering) code.
1548 * Removed all the code for BERK.
1550 * Removed all the code for stand-alone delivery (MHMTS).
1552 * Split the file mts/sendmail/smail.c into sendmail.c and
1553 smtp.c. Changed the name of the directory to mts/smtp.
1555 * Changed autoconf to use @sysconfdir@ for location of
1556 configuration files.
1558 * Changed #define in mhn.c from FTP to BUILTIN_FTP.
1560 Mon Jul 21 03:22:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1562 * Released nmh-0.17.
1564 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
1566 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
1567 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
1569 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
1572 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
1573 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
1575 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
1576 number of refiled message.
1578 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
1580 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
1581 for return value of wait().
1583 * Change configure to also check /bin for "more".
1585 Sat Jul 12 00:02:23 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1587 * Released nmh-0.16.
1589 Mon Jun 23 20:13:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1591 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
1593 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
1594 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
1595 deal with binary messages, yet).
1597 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
1599 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
1601 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
1602 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
1603 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
1604 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
1605 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
1606 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
1608 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
1609 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
1611 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
1612 From MH-6.8.4 patch.
1614 * Fix double free of ctinfo in user_content when using
1615 #forw with single message. From John MacMillan (and
1618 * Changed -mhnproc switch for show, to -showmimeproc.
1620 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".
1622 * Added "mime" option to "whatnow", which calls the program
1623 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
1626 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
1629 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
1631 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
1632 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
1633 which used unsigned chars by default.
1635 Sat Jun 21 01:21:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1637 * Released nmh-0.15.
1639 * Added new form "scan.unseen" to distribution. It marks messages
1640 which are in any sequence in Unseen-Sequence.

1644 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
1646 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
1649 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
1650 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
1651 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
1653 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
1654 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
1656 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
1658 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
1659 they conflict with defines on AIX.
1661 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
1662 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
1663 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
1664 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
1666 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
1667 and put in own subroutine.
1669 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
1670 and put in own subroutine.
1672 * Moved code to remove messages from folder into own
1673 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and
1674 refile.c to use new routine.
1676 Fri May 16 06:09:31 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1678 * Renamed m_seqok to seq_nameok.
1680 * Changed m_setunseen, msh, mshcmds, flist, and scan to use
1683 * Changed m_seqflag to return the number of a sequence rather
1684 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
1685 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
1687 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
1690 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before
1691 adding message to sequence.
1693 * Renamed function m_setvis to m_setunseen, and renamed
1694 corresponding file in sbr.
1696 * Renamed function m_setseq to m_setprev, and renamed corresponding
1699 * Changed mark.c and pick.c to use m_seqaddsel and m_seqdelsel.
1701 * Added new function m_seqdelsel to m_seqdel.c, which deletes
1702 all selected messages from a sequence.
1704 * Added new function m_seqaddsel to m_seqadd.c, which adds all
1705 selected messages to a sequence.
1707 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,
1710 Thu May 15 00:53:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1712 * Renamed function pack_folder to m_packfolder, and moved it
1713 from uip/folder.c into its own file sbr/m_packfolder.c
1715 Wed May 14 23:38:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1717 * Changed function m_gmsg to m_readfolder. Renamed file
1718 sbr/m_gmsg.c to sbr/m_readfolder.c.
1720 Mon May 5 19:57:11 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1722 * Expanded rcvtty man page, and added small patch from
1723 MH-6.8.4 distribution.

1727 * Released nmh-0.14.
1729 * Comment out configure test and code for tgetent to allocate its
1730 own termcap buffer when passed a NULL argument.
1732 Sat Apr 26 03:46:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1734 * Added new options `-checkmime', `-nocheckmime', and `-mhnproc'
1735 to show. Restructured code to handle options to various
1736 `procs' better. Deprecated `-noshowproc' option and NOMHNPROC
1737 environment variable.
1739 * Added new man page `mh-draft' which documents the
1740 draft folder facility in nmh.
1742 * Renamed fmtsbr.h to fmt_scan.h. Renamed fmtcompile.h

1749 * `send -help' wasn't showing the -(no)mime and -split
1752 Fri Apr 25 02:50:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1754 * Released nmh-0.13.
1756 * Changed mhpath so it doesn't abort if a message sequence
1757 such as "mhpath all" expands to more than 1000 messages.
1758 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
1759 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
1762 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
1763 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
1765 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1767 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if
1768 necessary. So `folders' can now handle more than 300 folders.
1770 Tue Apr 22 14:01:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1772 * Change configure to use a compile check to see if the tm struct
1773 has tm_gmtoff, rather than using egrep.
1775 Mon Apr 21 02:19:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1777 * Released nmh-0.12.
1779 * Had set_exists and unset_exists macros backwards.
1781 * Released nmh-0.11.
1783 Thu Apr 10 02:39:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1785 * Added documentation to mh-profile.man about the various
1786 `procs' (mhlproc, showproc, lproc, etc...).
1788 * Replace the bit twiddling for SELECTED, UNSEEN, and
1789 mp->attrstats with macros.
1791 * If system doesn't have SIGEMT (like Linux), then use SIGTERM
1794 * Change fstat to stat in m_gmsg.c since Linux wants
1797 * Merge Linux patch sent in by Michel Oosterhof (original
1798 patch from bsa@kf8nh.wariat.org).
1800 * Document an undocumented MH feature. mhn -form mhl.null
1801 will suppress the display of the message header.
1803 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
1805 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c
1806 and mshcmds.c, rather than hard coding in /bin/cat.

1815 500 elements at a time (rather than MAXFOLDERS / 5).
1817 * Add note to man page for mhmail that zero length messages are
1818 not sent. Need to use -body "" to send empty messages.
1820 * zotnet/mts/mts.c : compare character with '\0', not NULL.
1822 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
1824 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
1825 folder/message structure when done with folder.
1827 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is
1828 defined even if message is missing "From " line.

1842 The "From " line is now removed from all messages.
1844 * inc now saves the date from the "From " envelope in the
1845 Delivery-Date header for all messages.
1847 * sbr/m_getfld.c: Clean up processing of Return-Path and

1852 * client.c: cast iaddr to int before comparing return value
1853 of inet_addr with NOTOK.
1855 Tue Mar 11 04:38:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1857 * Grep test for signal names was failing on some OS'es because
1858 of missing tabs in regex.

1887 * rcvtty.c : Changed to use #define UTMP_FILE (if exists) rather
1888 than hard coded "/etc/utmp".
1890 * Released nmh-0.08.
1892 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
1893 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of
1894 locking database itself.
1896 Thu Feb 27 05:28:09 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1898 * Added slocal action `mmdf' to deliver to a file in mmdf format.
1900 * Changed the slocal actions `file' and `>' to always deliver in
1901 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
1904 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
1905 rather than mmdf format.
1907 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
1908 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
1909 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
1910 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
1912 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
1914 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1916 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
1919 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
1920 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
1921 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
1923 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
1924 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
1925 rcvpack so you can choose the preferred format.
1927 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1929 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
1930 can still easily change this in config.h).
1932 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
1933 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
1934 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
1936 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1938 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather
1939 than tzset and external timezone variable.

1953 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
1955 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
1956 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
1959 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
1960 built-in FTP client in mhn.

1973 * Released nmh-0.06.
1975 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
1976 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
1978 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
1979 many such machines around anymore.
1981 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
1982 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
1984 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
1985 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
1987 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1989 * Check lex generated file in zotnet/tws and use
1990 pre-generated version if necessary.
1992 * Released nmh-0.05.
1994 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
1995 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
1996 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
1997 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
1999 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
2000 be linked in one pass.
2002 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2004 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
2005 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
2007 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2009 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
2011 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2013 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
2014 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
2015 become the current folder.
2017 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2019 * Released nmh-0.04.

2024 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2026 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
2027 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
2028 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
2030 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2032 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
2033 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
2035 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2037 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
2038 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
2041 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
2042 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
2044 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2046 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
2047 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
2048 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
2049 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
2050 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
2051 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
2053 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2055 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
2056 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
2058 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
2059 a file (currently need to specify full path).
2061 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2063 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
2064 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
2066 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2068 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
2069 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
2070 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
2072 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2074 * Released nmh-0.03.
2076 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
2077 .mh_sequence file existed.
2079 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
2080 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
2082 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
2083 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
2086 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2088 * Changed flist option -unseen to -[no]all. Cleaned up
2091 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2093 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
2094 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
2095 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
2097 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2099 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
2100 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
2101 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
2103 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2105 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL
2106 and allocate its own buffer. Borrowed from zsh.
2108 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
2110 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2112 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
2113 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
2114 directory from where the source code is located.
2116 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2118 * Released nmh-0.02.
2120 Wed Jan 1 17:41:52 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

2125 Tue Dec 31 03:07:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2127 * Changed code to use strerror, rather than using sys_errlist
2128 and sys_nerr directly.

2132 * -compat switch from install-mh removed.
2134 * Changed the default POP port from "pop" to "pop3".
2136 Sat Dec 28 13:25:05 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2138 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
2139 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
2140 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
2141 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
2142 rather than in script.
2144 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2146 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
2148 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with
2149 macro defined on Solaris.
2151 Thu Dec 26 02:50:15 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2153 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
2154 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
2156 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
2157 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
2158 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
2159 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
2162 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2164 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
2165 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.
2167 * Fixed configure test so that termcap variable ospeed is
2170 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2172 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
2174 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included
2175 in mhn.c. Changed md5 to use memset and memcpy.
2177 Fri Dec 20 02:29:37 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2179 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
2180 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
2182 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2184 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
2185 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
2186 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
2187 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
2188 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
2189 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
2191 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2193 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
2195 * Released nmh-0.01.
2197 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
2198 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
2199 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
2202 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2204 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
2207 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2209 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
2210 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
2212 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2214 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
2215 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
2216 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
2217 script to find_program.
2219 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2221 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
2222 speed up -recurse option.
2224 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
2225 yet, but it compiles :-)
2227 * Changed default location for install to
2228 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
2229 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
2230 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
2233 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
2234 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
2235 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
