3 * etc/Makefile.in was incorrectly installing mts.conf.in and
4 sendfiles.in -- fixed. Changed the suffix for the backed-up
5 previous versions of the etc files from the ambiguous .old to
6 .prev. Added call to diff -- only keep the .prev files around if
7 different from the newly-installed versions (intentionally didn't
8 redirect output to /dev/null so you'll notice when your changed
9 versions are getting moved aside).
11 Mon May 29 7:48:15 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
13 * Moved the date parsing routines from zotnet/tws to sbr/ (and
14 tws.h to h/). Updated all source files to reflect to new location
17 * Rewrote dparsetime (dtimep.c) to replace the old
18 zotnet/tws/dtimep.c, lexstring.c, lexedit.c, and
19 dtimep.c-lexed. It should now work with flex (although untested
20 with lex), and requires no sed-ing. For now, I have the lexed
21 version in the distribution, so that end-users don't need to worry
22 about running it through flex/lex. I have not added back support
23 for guessing the time zone when it's not specified.
25 Sun May 28 17:44:15 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
27 * Added autoconf check for getutent().
29 * Changed uip/rcvtty.c and uip/slocal.c to use getutent() and
30 friends. Since I can only check on Linux, please check if
31 this works on other systems.
33 Sun May 28 14:58:49 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
35 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to uip/scansbr.c for more
36 checks for write failures.
38 * Unlink temporary file properly in uip/rcvtty.c.
40 * Moved viamail from bindir to libdir.
42 * Changed sendfiles into sendfiles.in, so that path to viamail
45 * Added gzip support to sendfiles.
47 * Added References header to replcomps and replgroupcomps.
49 Sun May 28 14:39:31 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
51 * Fixed m_getfld bug which caused segmentation faults when
52 incorporating messages which ended in multiple linefeeds crossing
55 Fri May 26 13:21:59 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
57 * msh has been unable to show MIME messages ever since 1.0. Alec
58 Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu> tracked down the problem to the
59 -show flag being passed to mhshow. mhshow is equivalent to the
60 old mhn -show, so we don't need the -show anymore. Removed it.
62 Fri May 12 02:51:21 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
64 * zotnet/bboards is not longer built by default. Goal is to move
65 the assorted functions in zotnet into sbr or some more logical
68 * Moved zotnet/mf to sbr, and changed mf.h references accordingly,
71 Thu May 11 02:21:34 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
73 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that both SRCS and OBJS aren't
74 seperately and redundantly defined, but so that OBJS is a
75 pattern-substituted version of SRCS with suffix .c -> .o. This
76 should make maintainability easier.
78 * Added section to MACHINES indicating what platforms nmh is known
79 to compile and work on, just to give users peace of mind, or
80 something. This is by no means complete or exhaustive, so add
81 whatever you know works.
83 Tue May 09 20:38:04 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
85 * Alphabetized Shantonu's $pop_kinds output on configure's "pop is
86 enabled" line. If POP3 is the only kind of POP enabled, say so,
87 rather than just saying "yes" (which is ambiguous).
89 * Fixed four warnings in Shantonu's new getpass.c. Needed to
90 #include <stdlib.h> for calloc(), <unistd.h> for ttyname(), and
91 "h/mh.h" for adios(). Also changed ch from char to int to get rid
92 of "comparison is always 1 due to limited range of data type" on EOF.
94 * Added steps to README.developers saying to change the version
95 number to X.Y.Z+dev. Did a little rearranging and changed the FTP
96 dir from /home/ftp to /var/ftp to reflect Doug's new machine.
98 * Changed configure.in to use gcc -Wall even without
99 --enable-debug, to prevent developers compiling optimized from
100 introducing warnings, and to give end-users a warm, fuzzy feeling
101 as they (hopefully) see no warnings come out (except perhaps on
102 the lex output file) even with -Wall.
104 * Renamed getpass() to nmh_getpass() since the prototype for
105 getpass() varies from OS to OS, and we want to _always_ use our
106 version of the function. Fixed all the callers to use
107 nmh_getpass() and added it to prototypes.h. Semi-arbitrarily
108 upped MAX_PASSWORD_LEN from 128 to 256. buf was being calloc()'d
109 and the memory leaked -- should have just been declared as static
110 char array. Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the
111 copyright message, as this version has been changed significantly
112 from the BSD version.
114 * Added "nmh-local functions to use in preference to OS versions"
115 section to README.developers (currently just says to use
116 nmh_getpass() instead of system getpass()).
118 * Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the copyright message
121 * Added mts.conf.5 page per Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s
124 This happens on solaris:
127 windex entry incorrect: mts.conf(5) not found.
128 No manual entry for mts.conf.
132 % echo ".so man5/mh-tailor.5" > mts.conf.5
134 done in the man5 directory. We need to add 'mts.conf.5' as a
135 reference sourcing mh-tailor.5.
137 Mon May 08 23:51:55 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
139 * Doug informed me that the way I had restored the "lost" version
140 histories was wrong, because `cvs checkout's of old versions of
141 nmh wouldn't work properly. It occurs to me that this could be
142 fixed by simply deleting those tags in the new-location *,v files,
143 but oh well. I'm putting everything back to the way Doug
144 originally had it. To get the old version history for a file that
145 used to be in the top directory, you'll need to "blindly" do a
146 `cvs log' there (even though you won't have a local copy of the
147 file in that directory). `cvs diff' will no longer be able to
148 diff pre-move versions vs. post-move versions -- you'll have to do
149 a lot of manual gyrations with `cvs checkout' and then use `diff'.
151 * I had alphabetized the --configure options in the --help output
152 awhile back, but Shantonu added --enable-apop just under
153 --enable-pop. Put it in alphabetical order and clarified what
154 --enable-apop does vs. --enable-pop and --with-krb4. Also changed
155 --with-mts help line from "mail transport agent" to "mail
156 transport agent/service" so the 's' in "mts" doesn't seem to come
159 * Added two steps to "releasing nmh" in README.developers. After
160 making the tarball, it's a good idea to diff the tree vs. the CVS
161 tree to make sure no files got left out, and then to chown the
162 files so that they're owned by root, preventing a Trojaning attack
163 by a malicious remote user with a UID matching yours.
165 * Changed DIFFERENCES to say that RPOP is not currently supported
166 rather than implying it by saying that APOP, KPOP, and POP[3] are.
168 Sun May 07 18:16:43 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
170 * Imported NetBSD version of getpass() and made extensive
171 revisions for compatibility with programs that pipe the password
172 to stdin, such as exmh.
174 * Removed tests for system ruserpass() which sometimes gave
175 phantom positive results. Also, bext to use internal functions if
176 we ever want to change .netrc format to something else, or access
179 Sat May 06 08:28:09 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
181 * Restored lost version histories for those moved files by doing a
182 manual `mv' in the CVSROOT on mhost. CVS badly needs a `cvs mv'
183 command so that you can move files (without having physical access
184 to the CVSROOT) without losing versioning. Put MACHINES back at
185 the top level as it needs to be read before building. Fixed DIST
186 variable in {.,docs}/Makefile.in to reflect that and to add
187 missing entry for "INSTALL" file.
189 Sat May 06 13:13:07 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
191 * Re-cleaned up nmh documentation (by moving things to docs
192 subdir) and modified Makefile & configure.in to handle the change.
194 Mon Apr 17 21:28:40 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
196 * Scott Blachowicz pointed out that the configure --help output
197 for --enable-masquerade was misleading. Clarified.
199 Mon Apr 17 19:01:00 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
201 * APOP support can be compiled in to inc and msgchk using
204 * To access an APOP host, specify -apop on the command line
205 along with any -host or -user option.
207 Fri Apr 14 23:10:44 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
209 * Upped the version number to 1.0.4+dev until the next nmh release.
211 * Added a "releasing nmh" section to README.developers, while the
212 process was fresh in my mind.
214 Fri Apr 14 18:21:34 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
216 * Added new files README.developers, ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6, and
217 ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html to DIST target in Makefile.in.
219 * Released nmh-1.0.4.
221 Tue Apr 11 21:37:03 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
223 * Applied Brian Campbell <bacam@tardis.ed.ac.uk>'s mhn.defaults.sh
226 It appears that there shouldn't be quotes around the %s in the
227 iso-8859-1 charset entry; xterm passes the remaining arguments
228 to the program, quoting them means that xterm thinks they're
229 part of the program's name.
231 This %s isn't the same as the "Insert content subtype" one from
232 mhshow-show-* -- it doesn't come from MIME headers and is safe not
235 Sun Apr 09 13:03:59 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
237 * added check in fmt_compile() to handle a single-character
238 format string. fmt_compile() depends on having an array of
239 format characters with an empty item at the end. A
240 single-character format would cause programs using this
241 function to segfault because the algorithm used to decide on
242 the length of the array mistakenly created a single-item array
243 when the format string was one character. This eventually
244 caused problems when the program attempted to test item+1
247 Thu Apr 06 21:53:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
249 * Richard Coleman threw out a lot of old MH-specific files in nmh.
250 Much of the stuff, indeed, is not worth saving, but there are
251 nuggets that are very worthwhile, and should probably be added
252 back in. Most important, IMHO, are the MH change logs, as they
253 can help answer questions like "Why is this code like this?" or
254 "How long has this been broken?" or "What was this ever used for?"
256 I've added a new file to the nmh tree called
257 ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6. It's cobbled together from the
258 mh-6.8.4/papers/mh*/MHCHANGES files. I've re-ordered the entries
259 to go from newest at the top to oldest at the bottom to match the
260 ChangeLog convention. Unfortunately there are no change logs for
261 versions of MH prior to 3 in the MH tar files available at
262 <ftp://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/mh>. Also, it appears to me that there
263 are MH-6.6 changes that aren't documented in the logs.
265 I've also added ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html. This is
266 based on mh-6.8.4/papers/changes/mh-changes.ms. The nroff format
267 and its "catman"-type output are a pain to deal with, but I was
268 loath to throw away the formatting, so I converted the file to
269 HTML. The only actual markup in the body are the "<B>" and "<U>"
270 tags, and "<" and ">" instead of '<' and '>', so it's quite
271 doable to view the file in plain ASCII mode as well. Note that
272 some of the changes this file documents as having been made in
273 MH-6.8.4 may not be present in nmh -- Richard started with 6.8.3
274 and later put in certain 6.8.4 stuff.
276 Wed Apr 05 21:09:28 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
278 * Applied Eric Schnoebelen <eric@cirr.com>'s mhshowsbr.c patch
279 fixing apparent bugs in Dan Winship's new security quoting code:
281 Since upgrading, I've been getting the following errors
282 while attempting to process some MIME messages:
284 (1) Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
289 (2) line 1/10 (END)Segmentation fault (core dumped)
291 (2) appears to be due to the testing of an unset pointer in
292 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux(). (1) appears to be caused by
293 mis-quoting a filename being handed to the shell in
294 mhshowsbr.c:show_content_aux().
296 Resolving the pointer reference issue in
297 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux() turned up a similar mis-quoting
298 problem in the routine.
300 Tue Mar 28 16:17:39 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
302 * Applied Todd.Miller@courtesan.com's patch to dropsbr.c to
303 prevent core dumping on packf. Here's the note from his message:
305 Since sizeof(buffer) == sizeof(tmpbuffer) packf will dump
306 core on a file w/o a From line with a line >= BUFSIZ.
307 I noticed this because I had a junk file in my mail
310 Fri Mar 17 11:59:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
312 * wesley.craig@umich.edu did not document his previous KPOP patch,
313 so I did so, and asked him to check what I wrote. Unfortunately
314 he didn't notice my misunderstanding of his patch. I wrote that
315 if you #define POPSERVICE "kpop", inc and msgchk will use KPOP
316 exclusively, but if you leave it as "pop3", you can use Wesley's
317 new -kpop switch on a given invocation. Instead, however, -kpop
318 turned out to be necessary on every invocation, and a KPOP user
319 complained. Applied Wesley's new patch, which makes things work
320 like I thought his original patch did. After that, did one more
321 clarifying pass to the documentation in inc.man and msgchk.man.
323 Wed Mar 15 18:45:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
325 * When I fixed the long-standing makedir() bugs in January, I had
326 the code call strtoul(..., 0), which I believed to be safe as all
327 modes specified as ASCII constants in the nmh code started with a
328 leading zero (signifying octal), which I did as it would work if
329 internal constants were ever changed to hex. Unfortunately I was
330 unaware of the "Folder-Protect:" .mh_profile entry, which
331 mh-profile.man documents as an octal-only constant, with no
332 leading zero required. I've changed the strtoul() call to an
333 atooi() call and removed the misleading leading zeroes on the
334 ASCII octal constants in the code and man pages. Also changed the
335 "Folder-Protect:" example in the man page to something more
336 interesting than a duplication of the default.
338 * When I added my --enable-masquerade option, you'll note that I
339 didn't make it --enable-nmh-masquerade. I find the --enable-nmh-*
340 options too wordy and I'm not sure why Richard went that route.
341 I've renamed them to just --enable-*, but the old versions will
342 still work as well (they just aren't advertised).
344 * Added a line to the "nmh configuration" output saying whether
347 * Added a new README.developers file. From the file:
349 This file is intended to provide a few tips for anyone doing
350 development on nmh. Developers who learn things "the hard
351 way" about the nmh codebase (as opposed to local info best
352 encoded in a comment) are encouraged to share their wisdom
355 Currently the topics are "autoconf files" and "directory structure".
357 Tue Mar 14 12:41:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
359 * Applied, after some finessing,
360 Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s --with-smtpservers patch:
362 Here's a patch that allows you to add
364 --with-smtpservers=<some.host.name>
366 to the ./configure command line to set the "servers: " line in
367 etc/mts.conf. Around here, we use "mailhost" so that all
368 machines in the current domain just talk to a central machine
369 and nothing else runs an MTA. Now, I can use
371 --with-smtpservers=mailhost
373 instead of having to remember to fix this by hand (and often
374 forgetting to do so!).
376 * Inspired by Simon's patch, added an --enable-masquerade option
377 to configure. It will set the "masquerade:" line of mts.conf.
378 You may specify a subset of the three types of masquerading, like
379 --enable-masquerade="draft_from mmailid", or leave off explicit
380 arguments to enable all three types.
382 * Alphabetized the --enable and --with options in configure.in and
383 INSTALL and added documentation of the two new options to the latter.
385 * Added new dependency for mts.conf: Makefile. If this isn't
386 done, then when you reconfigure nmh with new values for
387 --enable-masquerade or --with-smtpservers, you'll fail to get an
388 updated copy of mts.conf.
390 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtimep.lex patch:
392 It seems that some MUA's didn't handle y2k very well - ELM
393 seems to be one of them, and Ultrix's DXmail (based on MH!).
394 I've got a few emails this month that look like:
396 575 Jan 00 Xxxxxx Xxxx 3603 ...
398 22+ Jan 00 Xxx Xxxxx 1771 ...
400 The first has "15 Jan 100" as the date and the second has
401 "19 Jan 00" as the date. The following works around this so
402 that scan, show, sortm, etc work ok.
404 I put Simon's patch under the control of a new #define called
405 FIX_NON_Y2K_COMPLIANT_MUA_DATES. There's some commentary in
406 acconfig.h about when you might not want to #define it.
408 * Created new dtimep.c-lexed with Simon's change using dtimep.lex
409 lexed on Solaris 2.6. Added missing dependency in
410 zotnet/tws/Makefile.in for dtimep.c: dtimep.c-lexed.
412 * Added scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD format files.
414 Mon Mar 13 21:32:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
416 * Applied Sullivan N. Beck <sbeck@cise.ufl.edu>'s mhshow-suffix patch:
418 With the patch below, you can add lines like:
420 mhshow-suffix-application/msword: .doc
421 mhshow-suffix-application/PostScript: .ps
423 to the mhn.defaults file to append the given suffix to a
424 scratch file. This allows applications which require a
425 certain suffix to run properly.
427 * Removed -force_html from lynx entry in mhn.defaults.sh (I
428 believe older versions of lynx lack that option) and added
429 "mhshow-suffix-text/html: .html".
431 * Modified username_extension masquerading to only use the
432 extended address on generated [Resent-]From: lines and SMTP
433 envelope From:. With Neil's original implementation, nmh's global
434 idea of the username was changed, which would result in inc lying
435 and saying you had no new mail because it was looking for a
436 mailbox called, for instance, "dan-nmh" (where username was "dan"
437 and $USERNAME_EXTENSION was "-nmh").
439 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtime.c patch:
441 There's a wrap-around problem that affects the implementation
442 of Zeller's congruence in dtime.c. This causes the day-of-week
443 calculations to fail for dates after Feb 29, 2000 (probably up
444 until some year far in the future).
446 Mon Mar 06 12:20:20 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
448 * Applied Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s msh.c patch:
450 I finally tracked down the problem in msh that was causing
451 errors whenever I tried to examine a 'mmdf' style mailbox.
453 It turns out that not enough memory was being allocated with
454 calloc(), causing memory pointers to be overwritten and
457 Fri Mar 03 16:07:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
459 * Changed the new "plussed_user" option to mts.conf's
460 "masquerade:" to "username_extension" after getting feedback from
461 qmail users, who use '-' as a separator rather than '+'. Removed
462 checking of $USERPLUS variable. Now check $USERNAME_EXTENSION,
463 which needs to include the appropriate separator for your MTA
464 ('-', '+', or whatever) as its first character.
466 Thu Mar 02 23:04:30 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
468 * Added a new "boolean" type to mh.h and TRUE and FALSE constants.
470 * Added a note to DIFFERENCES stating that it's out-of-date
471 (Richard was the last one to update it) and that we should
472 consider only documenting incompatibilities with MH there.
474 * Implemented (and documented) a third kind of username
475 masquerading: "plussed user" masquerading. This one was suggested
476 by Neil Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>. It's based on sendmail's
477 "plussed user" feature, where mail sent to <user>+<string> will be
478 delivered to <user>. When it's enabled, it's controlled by the
479 $USERPLUS environment variable. How is it enabled? Well, that
482 * Renamed the "mmailid:" setting in mts.conf to "masquerade:", and
483 changed it so that rather than being a boolean, it can be set to
484 any combination of the three values "draft_from", "mmailid", and
485 "plussed_user". Thus it is now possible to enable the three types
486 of masquerading individually.
488 * Fixed a bug with "mmailid" masquerading (dating back to MH?)
489 where if it was turned on, ','s would no longer be considered
490 GECOS field delimiters.
492 Wed Mar 01 23:30:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
494 * Changed the GECOS-field '&' translation behavior to be
495 controlled by the BSD42 #define rather than GCOS_HACK, since it's
496 apparently always appropriate on OSes where BSD42 is #defined, and
497 never appropriate on any other OSes. Thanks to Kimmo Suominen for
498 responding to my "What is this code here for?" comment in mts.c
499 and explaining the feature.
501 Mon Feb 28 21:50:29 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
503 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3+dev (ideally this should be
504 done by whoever makes a release tar file, immediately after doing
507 * Applied Paul Fox <pgf-spam@foxharp.boston.ma.us>'s scansbr.c
508 patch, posted to comp.mail.mh, which he says prevents loss of mail
509 when inc'ing into a full filesystem.
511 * Changed "echo > stamp-h.in" in Makefile.in to "date > stamp-h.in"
512 so that stamp-h.in will be different each time configure.in and
513 related files are changed, making it easier to check it in (which
514 is necessary to prevent unnecessary autoconf calls).
516 * My declaration of initgroups() in slocal.c to eliminate the "no
517 prototype" warning wasn't portable (FreeBSD 3.[23] choked). Now
518 use AC_EGREP_HEADER to see where initgroups() is declared, if
521 Sun Feb 20 12:17:15 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
523 * Fix security hole in mhshowsbr.c which allowed untrusted shell
526 * Released nmh 1.0.3.
528 Thu Feb 10 10:54:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
530 * Oops. %-escapes on mhstore lines in mhn.defaults.sh should not
531 be surrounded by single quotes, as a shell is not spawned when
532 just saving files, and the filenames will end up with literal
533 quotes embedded in them.
535 Fri Feb 04 12:29:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
537 * Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
538 got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
539 the -help output. One theory is that they were making reference
540 to the fact that clearly you know about the -help option since
541 you're currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea
542 to overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
543 supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
546 The other theory is that because you can say something like
547 "mhstore -" and get "mhstore: - ambiguous. It matches" followed
548 by the same list of switches you get with -help, they were saying
549 you can "sorta" abbreviate "-help" as "-". You don't get the
550 "Usage:" string, though, so it's not really the same thing.
552 Thu Feb 03 17:52:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
554 * Applied wesley.craig@umich.edu's KPOP patches. According to him:
556 The following patch fixes a problem with requesting a
557 service key for a machine that has multiple 'A' records. It
558 also makes "-kpop" a command line option, for users who
559 would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".
561 Did no testing of the new features, as I don't have access to a
564 * Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
566 * Modified INSTALL and config.h.in to reflect the new -kpop feature.
568 Fri Jan 28 17:39:24 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
570 * All %-escapes in mhn.defaults that actually expand to something
571 should be surrounded by single quotes. Added quotes to the ones
572 in mhn.defaults.sh that were missing them.
574 * Added check for lynx to write mhshow-show-text/html line in
577 Thu Jan 27 12:22:25 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
579 * makedir() had multiple bugs dating back to MH. An octal
580 constant was apparently being interpreted as decimal, resulting in
581 directories with no user read or execute permissions, making
582 nested directory creation fail. And there wasn't even an
583 _attempt_ to set desired permissions (e.g. from "Folder-Protect:"
584 in .mh_profile) on the outer directories of a nested directory.
586 * A second `make install' would always fail because the check for
587 whether mh_profile.5 existed was written incorrectly.
589 Wed Jan 26 02:22:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
591 * Added documentation on both types of masquerading to post's man
594 Tue Jan 25 22:58:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
596 * Doug's portability fix of my setgid inc autodetection had a
597 caching bug -- if you re-ran configure, uip/Makefile would be
598 corrupted, and installation would bomb out on OSes where inc needs
601 * Implemented a new kind of email address masquerading. Usually,
602 when a user writes a custom "From:" header in a draft, nmh uses it
603 rather than generating one. However, the user's true address is
604 used in the SMTP envelope "From:" and is revealed in the "Sender:"
605 header. Now, when mmailid is set to non-zero, the envelope
606 "From:" uses the address specified in the draft "From:" header,
607 and there is no "Sender:" header. This is useful when sending on
608 behalf of a remote POP3 account or when remote mail robots
609 incorrectly use the envelope "From:" in preference to the body
610 "From:". This processing has only been implemented for post, not
611 for the undocumented spost (which was already missing some "From:"
612 processing that post has).
614 Mon Jan 24 22:26:06 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
616 * Got rid of the rest of the gcc -Wall warnings that I didn't have
617 time for on 1999-07-15 (and, it would seem, some new ones people
618 introduced since then). The primary ones were the warnings that
619 default prototypes were being used for [v]snprintf() and
620 str[n]casecmp(). As of right now, there are _no_ compilation
621 warnings except on dtimep.c-lexed (at least under AIX 4.1.5 and
624 Sun Jan 2 23:42:18 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
626 * Move mhtest from bindir to libdir.
628 * Move sendfiles from libdir to bindir.
630 * Updated sendfiles manpage to reflect this change.
632 * Added documentation for -build and -file switches to repl and
633 forw manpages (patch from Peter Maydell).
635 * Fixed interaction between specifying -cc in profile and -group on
638 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
640 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
641 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
642 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
645 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
647 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
648 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
649 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
650 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
651 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
652 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).
654 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
656 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
658 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
660 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
661 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
662 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
663 caught again. This works for now.
665 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
667 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
669 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
670 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
672 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
674 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
675 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
677 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
679 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
681 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
683 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
684 changes. Both need more cleanup.
686 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
688 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
689 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
690 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
691 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
692 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
695 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
697 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
698 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
699 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
701 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
702 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
705 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
707 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
708 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
709 to a directory on another device with more free space.
711 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
713 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
714 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
716 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
718 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
721 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
722 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
724 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
725 macros, regardless of platform.
727 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
728 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
730 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
731 with x-conversions=gzip.
733 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
735 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
738 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
739 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
740 implicit definition of ioctl().
742 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
743 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
744 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
745 want to mess with them.
747 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
749 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
750 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
752 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
753 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
755 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
756 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
757 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
759 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
760 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
761 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
763 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
766 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
769 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
770 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
773 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
774 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
777 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
778 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
782 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
784 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
785 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
786 preventing compilation on at least linux.
788 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
789 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
791 Thu Sep 09 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
793 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
795 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
796 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
797 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
798 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
800 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
801 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
803 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
805 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
807 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
809 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
810 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
812 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
814 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
815 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
817 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
818 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
819 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
820 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
822 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
823 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
825 Sat Jun 09 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
827 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
828 substitute it for mktemp if available.
830 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
832 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
833 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
836 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
838 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
840 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
842 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
843 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
845 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
846 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
847 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
849 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
850 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
851 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
853 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
854 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
855 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
857 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
858 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
861 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
862 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
864 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
865 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
867 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
870 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
871 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
872 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
874 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
875 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
877 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
878 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
879 <elleron@servtech.com>.
881 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
882 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
885 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
886 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
888 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
889 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
890 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
891 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
893 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
894 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
896 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
900 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
901 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
902 would not be changed.
904 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
905 one from the Apache web server.
907 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
908 (this should have been done a long time ago).
910 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
911 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
912 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
914 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
916 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
918 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
919 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
922 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
923 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
924 removes a bad race condition.
926 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
929 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
930 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
931 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
933 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
934 sequence information.
936 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
937 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
939 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
942 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
945 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
947 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
948 interpret 034 as octal.
950 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
952 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
953 mhstore, and mhbuild.
955 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
956 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
958 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
959 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
961 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
962 in the c_cefile structure when building.
964 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
965 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
967 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
968 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
969 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
971 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
972 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
973 and mhshow. Updated man pages
975 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
977 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
979 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
980 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
983 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
985 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
986 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
988 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
989 header field information.
991 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
992 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
994 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
995 values when parsing a content.
997 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
998 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
1000 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
1001 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
1003 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
1004 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1006 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
1007 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
1009 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
1011 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
1013 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
1015 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
1017 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
1018 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
1021 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
1022 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
1024 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
1025 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
1026 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
1027 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
1028 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
1029 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
1032 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1034 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
1035 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
1036 buffer length checks for this parameter.
1038 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
1039 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
1041 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1043 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
1044 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
1045 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
1046 of the limits on the length of command lines.
1048 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
1049 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
1052 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
1053 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
1054 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
1055 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
1058 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1060 * Released nmh-0.27.
1062 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
1063 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
1065 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
1066 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
1067 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
1068 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
1071 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
1072 mhbuild returns an error.
1074 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
1075 rename the draft file.
1077 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
1078 use a global variable.
1080 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
1081 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
1083 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
1084 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
1086 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
1087 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
1088 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
1090 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
1091 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
1093 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
1094 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
1097 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
1098 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
1101 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
1102 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
1104 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
1105 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
1106 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
1108 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
1109 to new function output_content_folder.
1111 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
1112 new function output_content_file.
1114 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
1115 to new function parse_format_string.
1117 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
1118 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
1119 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
1120 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
1122 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
1123 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
1124 message/external file from ftp.
1126 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
1127 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
1128 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
1130 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
1131 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
1134 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
1137 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
1138 new file mhstoresbr.c
1140 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
1143 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
1144 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
1146 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
1147 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
1149 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
1150 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
1151 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
1153 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
1155 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
1157 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
1158 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
1161 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
1162 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
1164 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
1167 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
1169 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1171 * Released nmh-0.26.
1173 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
1174 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
1175 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
1176 is still the same (dashstuffing).
1178 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
1179 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
1180 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
1181 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
1182 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
1184 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
1185 But it is not on by default.
1187 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
1188 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
1190 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
1192 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
1194 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
1196 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
1198 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
1199 number of the "cur" message when packing.
1201 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1203 * Released nmh-0.25.
1205 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
1206 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
1207 uses the original name of the library.
1209 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
1210 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
1213 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
1214 list_content and list_debug.
1216 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
1218 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
1219 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.
1221 1998-02-27 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1223 * Released nmh-0.24.
1225 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
1227 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
1228 are given, that order doesn't matter.
1230 * Fix bug in seq_list.c when realloc'ing for
1231 large sequence line.
1233 1998-02-23 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1235 * Released nmh-0.23.
1237 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
1239 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
1240 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan
1241 content, decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary
1242 string). I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
1244 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
1245 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
1248 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
1250 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
1252 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
1254 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
1255 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
1257 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
1258 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.
1260 * Add note to MACHINES file that on Linux, configure
1261 doesn't find the functions sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
1263 * Fix configuration for machines that don't have (or find)
1264 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
1266 1998-02-11 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1268 * Released nmh-0.22.
1270 * Add a configure check for sigsetjmp. Add some conditional
1271 #define's in h/signals.h in case it's not found.
1273 * Added additional notes about -auto switch in mhn man page.
1275 * Added note about MM_CHARSET environment variable to
1276 mh-profile(5) man page.
1278 * Fix signal problem in mhn.c (change setjmp/longjmp to
1279 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp).
1281 1998-02-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1283 * Released nmh-0.22-pre1.
1285 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
1286 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
1288 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
1290 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
1291 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
1292 entry point for parsing MIME files.
1294 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
1295 source message on the standard input.
1297 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
1299 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
1300 rather than -rfc934mode.
1302 * Fix mhbuild, so that Content-Description and RFC-822 comments
1303 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
1306 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
1307 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).
1309 * Restore HP specific code to zotnet/tws/lexstring.c. Apparently
1312 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1314 * Released nmh-0.21.
1316 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
1317 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.
1319 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what transfer
1322 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what character set
1323 to use for text contents.
1325 * Removed old hpux specific code from zotnet/tws/lexstring.c
1327 1998-02-02 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1329 * Released nmh-0.21-pre2.
1331 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
1333 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
1334 header fields as per RFC-2047.
1336 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
1337 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
1338 spaces between encoded word are.
1340 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
1342 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
1343 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
1345 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
1346 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
1347 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
1349 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
1351 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
1352 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
1354 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.
1356 * Added support for %(decode) to fmtdump.c.
1358 * check_charset() now accepts US-ASCII as a subset of any
1359 ISO-8859-X character set.
1361 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
1364 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
1365 permissions, not write permissions.
1367 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
1368 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
1370 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
1373 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1375 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
1377 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
1378 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
1380 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
1381 message contains valid character set.
1383 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
1384 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
1386 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
1387 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
1389 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
1390 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
1391 between an encoded word and normal text.
1393 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
1394 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
1396 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
1397 as a RFC-2047 header field.
1399 * The command install-mh now recognizes the switches -version
1402 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
1403 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
1406 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
1407 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
1409 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
1410 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
1412 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
1414 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1416 * Released nmh-0.20.
1418 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
1420 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.
1422 * Changed the default format file for mhl (mhl.format) to
1423 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
1424 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
1426 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
1427 and the To: line was missing.
1429 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
1431 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1433 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
1435 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
1436 watch the POP transaction.
1438 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
1439 first, and use it if available.
1441 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
1442 first, and use it if available.
1444 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1446 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
1448 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
1449 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
1450 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
1453 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
1454 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
1455 returns the state FLDPLUS.
1457 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
1458 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
1461 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
1463 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
1464 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
1466 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
1468 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
1469 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
1471 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
1472 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
1473 message to which you are replying.
1475 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
1476 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
1477 making group replies.
1479 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
1481 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1483 * Released nmh-0.19.
1485 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
1486 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
1488 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
1489 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
1490 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
1491 to the end of the man page.
1493 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
1494 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
1495 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
1496 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
1497 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
1498 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
1500 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
1503 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
1504 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
1505 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
1507 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
1508 the next available number above the message number you wish
1511 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
1512 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
1514 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
1515 file sbr/seq_print.c
1517 * flist will now update the current folder.
1519 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
1520 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
1521 but now undocumented.
1523 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
1526 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
1527 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
1529 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
1531 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
1532 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
1534 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1536 * Released nmh-0.18.
1538 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
1539 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
1540 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
1542 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
1543 retains the public/private status of sequences.
1545 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
1546 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
1547 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
1548 previous public/private status.
1550 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
1553 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
1556 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
1557 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
1558 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
1560 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
1561 take option to determine whether it should get current
1562 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
1563 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
1565 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
1567 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
1568 wait for stopped processes.
1570 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
1571 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
1573 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1575 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
1577 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
1578 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
1580 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
1581 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
1583 * Change the way that memory for message status is
1584 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
1585 the folder/message structure. This required changing
1586 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
1588 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
1591 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
1594 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
1596 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
1597 the debugging output.
1599 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
1600 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
1602 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1604 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
1606 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
1607 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
1609 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
1611 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
1612 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
1613 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
1614 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
1615 in the given sequence.
1617 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
1618 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
1619 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
1620 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
1621 subdirectories of a given directory.
1623 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
1624 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
1625 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
1627 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
1628 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
1630 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
1632 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
1635 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
1636 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
1637 fields are now calculated at runtime.
1639 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
1640 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
1641 are calculated at runtime.
1643 Sun Nov 30 19:14:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1645 * Released nmh-0.18-pre2.
1647 * Add paragraph to man page for install-mh and to INSTALL file
1648 about checking for global mh.profile.
1650 * Renamed m_find() to context_find().
1651 Renamed m_replace() to context_replace().
1652 Renamed m_delete() to context_del().
1653 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
1654 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
1655 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
1657 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
1658 adding message to folder itself.
1660 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
1661 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
1662 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
1665 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
1666 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
1669 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
1670 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
1671 is the same as the direct smtp code).
1673 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
1674 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
1676 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
1677 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
1678 code to use it yet).
1680 Thu Nov 13 18:42:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1682 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.
1684 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never
1685 called with a value larger than 30 mintues.
1687 * Fixed race condition in rmm and refile, so that
1688 context is updated before external rmmproc is called.
1690 * Removed all the OVERHEAD code.
1692 * Move code to add message to folder from refile.c
1695 Fri Jul 25 19:39:29 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1697 * Did some rearranging of the internals of inc.c.
1699 * Make -inplace the default for anno, forw, dist, and repl.
1701 * Changed --enable-smtp to --with-mts={smtp,sendmail}
1703 * Created new directory mts/sendmail for direct sendmail
1704 interface (although it currently still uses SMTP).
1706 * Removed all the TMA (trusted mail agent) code
1708 * Removed all the TTYD (terminal access daemon) code
1710 * Removed all the MF (uucp filtering) code.
1712 * Removed all the code for BERK.
1714 * Removed all the code for stand-alone delivery (MHMTS).
1716 * Split the file mts/sendmail/smail.c into sendmail.c and
1717 smtp.c. Changed the name of the directory to mts/smtp.
1719 * Changed autoconf to use @sysconfdir@ for location of
1720 configuration files.
1722 * Changed #define in mhn.c from FTP to BUILTIN_FTP.
1724 Mon Jul 21 03:22:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1726 * Released nmh-0.17.
1728 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
1730 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
1731 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
1733 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
1736 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
1737 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
1739 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
1740 number of refiled message.
1742 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
1744 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
1745 for return value of wait().
1747 * Change configure to also check /bin for "more".
1749 Sat Jul 12 00:02:23 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1751 * Released nmh-0.16.
1753 Mon Jun 23 20:13:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1755 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
1757 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
1758 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
1759 deal with binary messages, yet).
1761 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
1763 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
1765 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
1766 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
1767 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
1768 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
1769 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
1770 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
1772 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
1773 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
1775 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
1776 From MH-6.8.4 patch.

1793 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
1795 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to

1814 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
1815 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
1817 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
1818 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
1820 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
1822 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since

1825 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
1826 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
1827 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
1828 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
1830 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
1831 and put in own subroutine.
1833 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
1834 and put in own subroutine.

1869 selected messages to a sequence.
1871 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,
1874 Thu May 15 00:53:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1876 * Renamed function pack_folder to m_packfolder, and moved it

1918 * Released nmh-0.13.
1920 * Changed mhpath so it doesn't abort if a message sequence
1921 such as "mhpath all" expands to more than 1000 messages.
1922 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
1923 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
1926 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
1927 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
1929 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1931 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if
1932 necessary. So `folders' can now handle more than 300 folders.
1934 Tue Apr 22 14:01:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1936 * Change configure to use a compile check to see if the tm struct

1965 will suppress the display of the message header.
1967 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
1969 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c
1970 and mshcmds.c, rather than hard coding in /bin/cat.

1981 * Add note to man page for mhmail that zero length messages are
1982 not sent. Need to use -body "" to send empty messages.
1984 * zotnet/mts/mts.c : compare character with '\0', not NULL.
1986 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
1988 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
1989 folder/message structure when done with folder.
1991 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is
1992 defined even if message is missing "From " line.

2016 * client.c: cast iaddr to int before comparing return value
2017 of inet_addr with NOTOK.
2019 Tue Mar 11 04:38:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2021 * Grep test for signal names was failing on some OS'es because

2054 * Released nmh-0.08.
2056 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
2057 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of

2065 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
2068 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
2069 rather than mmdf format.
2071 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
2072 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
2073 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
2074 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
2076 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
2078 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2080 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
2083 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2084 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2085 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
2087 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2088 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to

2091 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2093 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
2094 can still easily change this in config.h).
2096 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
2097 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
2098 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
2100 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2102 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather

2117 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
2119 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
2120 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
2123 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
2124 built-in FTP client in mhn.

2137 * Released nmh-0.06.
2139 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
2140 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
2142 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
2143 many such machines around anymore.
2145 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
2146 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
2148 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
2149 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
2151 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2153 * Check lex generated file in zotnet/tws and use
2154 pre-generated version if necessary.
2156 * Released nmh-0.05.
2158 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
2159 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
2160 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
2161 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
2163 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
2164 be linked in one pass.
2166 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2168 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
2169 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
2171 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2173 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
2175 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2177 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
2178 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
2179 become the current folder.
2181 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2183 * Released nmh-0.04.

2188 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2190 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
2191 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
2192 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
2194 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2196 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
2197 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
2199 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2201 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
2202 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
2205 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
2206 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
2208 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2210 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
2211 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
2212 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
2213 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
2214 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
2215 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
2217 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2219 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
2220 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
2222 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
2223 a file (currently need to specify full path).
2225 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2227 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
2228 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
2230 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2232 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
2233 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
2234 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
2236 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2238 * Released nmh-0.03.
2240 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
2241 .mh_sequence file existed.
2243 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
2244 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
2246 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
2247 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
2250 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2252 * Changed flist option -unseen to -[no]all. Cleaned up
2255 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2257 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
2258 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
2259 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
2261 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2263 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
2264 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
2265 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
2267 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2269 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL
2270 and allocate its own buffer. Borrowed from zsh.
2272 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
2274 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2276 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
2277 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
2278 directory from where the source code is located.
2280 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2282 * Released nmh-0.02.

2302 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
2303 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
2304 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
2305 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
2306 rather than in script.
2308 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2310 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
2312 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with

2317 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
2318 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
2320 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
2321 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
2322 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
2323 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
2326 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2328 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
2329 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.
2331 * Fixed configure test so that termcap variable ospeed is
2334 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2336 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
2338 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included
2339 in mhn.c. Changed md5 to use memset and memcpy.
2341 Fri Dec 20 02:29:37 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2343 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
2344 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
2346 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2348 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
2349 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
2350 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
2351 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
2352 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
2353 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
2355 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2357 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
2359 * Released nmh-0.01.
