3 * etc/Makefile.in was incorrectly installing mts.conf.in and
4 sendfiles.in -- fixed. Generated sendfiles script was not a
5 dependency of the `all' target, and was incorrectly included in
6 the distribution. Changed the suffix for the backed-up previous
7 versions of the etc files from the ambiguous .old to .prev. Added
8 call to diff -- only keep the .prev files around if different from
9 the newly-installed versions (intentionally didn't redirect output
10 to /dev/null so you'll notice when your changed versions are
13 * INSTALL never documented the etc/*.old thing. Documented the
14 new etc/*.prev thing (including a note to watch for diff output).
16 * Applied Alec Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu>'s dropsbr.c patch:
18 In the map_write routine, a call is made to map_open and this
19 call is supposed to set the "clear" variable to 0 or 1,
20 depending on whether the map file is empty or not. In
21 mh6.8.3, this worked because map_open would set "clear" by
22 calling the mbx_Xopen routine. In nmh, the code for mbx_Xopen
23 was merged into mbx_open, but the interface for mbx_open
24 doesn't support the clear variable, so that functionality was
25 lost. The map_open interface still contains "int *clear" in
26 the prototype, but never sets it.
28 My patch eliminates "clear" from the map_open interface (I
29 checked to make sure that map_write is the only client of
30 map_open). Furthermore, my patch also sets the "clear"
31 variable properly at the beginning of map_write by calling
32 fstat(). This eliminates the bug in that the value of "clear"
33 being used later in the routine was just stack garbage.
35 Having a bad value of clear causes this next bug to be
36 triggered: The fp file pointer was being opened with fdopen,
37 but in two of the three switch cases it wasn't being closed.
38 In certain cases, this was causing packf to run out of file
39 descriptors if you attempted to pack a large folder.
41 Mon May 29 7:48:15 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
43 * Moved the date parsing routines from zotnet/tws to sbr/ (and
44 tws.h to h/). Updated all source files to reflect to new location
47 * Rewrote dparsetime (dtimep.c) to replace the old
48 zotnet/tws/dtimep.c, lexstring.c, lexedit.c, and
49 dtimep.c-lexed. It should now work with flex (although untested
50 with lex), and requires no sed-ing. For now, I have the lexed
51 version in the distribution, so that end-users don't need to worry
52 about running it through flex/lex. I have not added back support
53 for guessing the time zone when it's not specified.
55 Sun May 28 17:44:15 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
57 * Added autoconf check for getutent().
59 * Changed uip/rcvtty.c and uip/slocal.c to use getutent() and
60 friends. Since I can only check on Linux, please check if
61 this works on other systems.
63 Sun May 28 14:58:49 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
65 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to uip/scansbr.c for more
66 checks for write failures.
68 * Unlink temporary file properly in uip/rcvtty.c.
70 * Moved viamail from bindir to libdir.
72 * Changed sendfiles into sendfiles.in, so that path to viamail
75 * Added gzip support to sendfiles.
77 * Added References header to replcomps and replgroupcomps.
79 Sun May 28 14:39:31 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
81 * Fixed m_getfld bug which caused segmentation faults when
82 incorporating messages which ended in multiple linefeeds crossing
85 Fri May 26 13:21:59 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
87 * msh has been unable to show MIME messages ever since 1.0. Alec
88 Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu> tracked down the problem to the
89 -show flag being passed to mhshow. mhshow is equivalent to the
90 old mhn -show, so we don't need the -show anymore. Removed it.
92 Fri May 12 02:51:21 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
94 * zotnet/bboards is not longer built by default. Goal is to move
95 the assorted functions in zotnet into sbr or some more logical
98 * Moved zotnet/mf to sbr, and changed mf.h references accordingly,
101 Thu May 11 02:21:34 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
103 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that both SRCS and OBJS aren't
104 seperately and redundantly defined, but so that OBJS is a
105 pattern-substituted version of SRCS with suffix .c -> .o. This
106 should make maintainability easier.
108 * Added section to MACHINES indicating what platforms nmh is known
109 to compile and work on, just to give users peace of mind, or
110 something. This is by no means complete or exhaustive, so add
111 whatever you know works.
113 Tue May 09 20:38:04 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
115 * Alphabetized Shantonu's $pop_kinds output on configure's "pop is
116 enabled" line. If POP3 is the only kind of POP enabled, say so,
117 rather than just saying "yes" (which is ambiguous).
119 * Fixed four warnings in Shantonu's new getpass.c. Needed to
120 #include <stdlib.h> for calloc(), <unistd.h> for ttyname(), and
121 "h/mh.h" for adios(). Also changed ch from char to int to get rid
122 of "comparison is always 1 due to limited range of data type" on EOF.
124 * Added steps to README.developers saying to change the version
125 number to X.Y.Z+dev. Did a little rearranging and changed the FTP
126 dir from /home/ftp to /var/ftp to reflect Doug's new machine.
128 * Changed configure.in to use gcc -Wall even without
129 --enable-debug, to prevent developers compiling optimized from
130 introducing warnings, and to give end-users a warm, fuzzy feeling
131 as they (hopefully) see no warnings come out (except perhaps on
132 the lex output file) even with -Wall.
134 * Renamed getpass() to nmh_getpass() since the prototype for
135 getpass() varies from OS to OS, and we want to _always_ use our
136 version of the function. Fixed all the callers to use
137 nmh_getpass() and added it to prototypes.h. Semi-arbitrarily
138 upped MAX_PASSWORD_LEN from 128 to 256. buf was being calloc()'d
139 and the memory leaked -- should have just been declared as static
140 char array. Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the
141 copyright message, as this version has been changed significantly
142 from the BSD version.
144 * Added "nmh-local functions to use in preference to OS versions"
145 section to README.developers (currently just says to use
146 nmh_getpass() instead of system getpass()).
148 * Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the copyright message
151 * Added mts.conf.5 page per Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s
154 This happens on solaris:
157 windex entry incorrect: mts.conf(5) not found.
158 No manual entry for mts.conf.
162 % echo ".so man5/mh-tailor.5" > mts.conf.5
164 done in the man5 directory. We need to add 'mts.conf.5' as a
165 reference sourcing mh-tailor.5.
167 Mon May 08 23:51:55 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
169 * Doug informed me that the way I had restored the "lost" version
170 histories was wrong, because `cvs checkout's of old versions of
171 nmh wouldn't work properly. It occurs to me that this could be
172 fixed by simply deleting those tags in the new-location *,v files,
173 but oh well. I'm putting everything back to the way Doug
174 originally had it. To get the old version history for a file that
175 used to be in the top directory, you'll need to "blindly" do a
176 `cvs log' there (even though you won't have a local copy of the
177 file in that directory). `cvs diff' will no longer be able to
178 diff pre-move versions vs. post-move versions -- you'll have to do
179 a lot of manual gyrations with `cvs checkout' and then use `diff'.
181 * I had alphabetized the --configure options in the --help output
182 awhile back, but Shantonu added --enable-apop just under
183 --enable-pop. Put it in alphabetical order and clarified what
184 --enable-apop does vs. --enable-pop and --with-krb4. Also changed
185 --with-mts help line from "mail transport agent" to "mail
186 transport agent/service" so the 's' in "mts" doesn't seem to come
189 * Added two steps to "releasing nmh" in README.developers. After
190 making the tarball, it's a good idea to diff the tree vs. the CVS
191 tree to make sure no files got left out, and then to chown the
192 files so that they're owned by root, preventing a Trojaning attack
193 by a malicious remote user with a UID matching yours.
195 * Changed DIFFERENCES to say that RPOP is not currently supported
196 rather than implying it by saying that APOP, KPOP, and POP[3] are.
198 Sun May 07 18:16:43 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
200 * Imported NetBSD version of getpass() and made extensive
201 revisions for compatibility with programs that pipe the password
202 to stdin, such as exmh.
204 * Removed tests for system ruserpass() which sometimes gave
205 phantom positive results. Also, bext to use internal functions if
206 we ever want to change .netrc format to something else, or access
209 Sat May 06 08:28:09 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
211 * Restored lost version histories for those moved files by doing a
212 manual `mv' in the CVSROOT on mhost. CVS badly needs a `cvs mv'
213 command so that you can move files (without having physical access
214 to the CVSROOT) without losing versioning. Put MACHINES back at
215 the top level as it needs to be read before building. Fixed DIST
216 variable in {.,docs}/Makefile.in to reflect that and to add
217 missing entry for "INSTALL" file.
219 Sat May 06 13:13:07 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
221 * Re-cleaned up nmh documentation (by moving things to docs
222 subdir) and modified Makefile & configure.in to handle the change.
224 Mon Apr 17 21:28:40 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
226 * Scott Blachowicz pointed out that the configure --help output
227 for --enable-masquerade was misleading. Clarified.
229 Mon Apr 17 19:01:00 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
231 * APOP support can be compiled in to inc and msgchk using
234 * To access an APOP host, specify -apop on the command line
235 along with any -host or -user option.
237 Fri Apr 14 23:10:44 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
239 * Upped the version number to 1.0.4+dev until the next nmh release.
241 * Added a "releasing nmh" section to README.developers, while the
242 process was fresh in my mind.
244 Fri Apr 14 18:21:34 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
246 * Added new files README.developers, ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6, and
247 ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html to DIST target in Makefile.in.
249 * Released nmh-1.0.4.
251 Tue Apr 11 21:37:03 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
253 * Applied Brian Campbell <bacam@tardis.ed.ac.uk>'s mhn.defaults.sh
256 It appears that there shouldn't be quotes around the %s in the
257 iso-8859-1 charset entry; xterm passes the remaining arguments
258 to the program, quoting them means that xterm thinks they're
259 part of the program's name.
261 This %s isn't the same as the "Insert content subtype" one from
262 mhshow-show-* -- it doesn't come from MIME headers and is safe not
265 Sun Apr 09 13:03:59 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
267 * added check in fmt_compile() to handle a single-character
268 format string. fmt_compile() depends on having an array of
269 format characters with an empty item at the end. A
270 single-character format would cause programs using this
271 function to segfault because the algorithm used to decide on
272 the length of the array mistakenly created a single-item array
273 when the format string was one character. This eventually
274 caused problems when the program attempted to test item+1
277 Thu Apr 06 21:53:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
279 * Richard Coleman threw out a lot of old MH-specific files in nmh.
280 Much of the stuff, indeed, is not worth saving, but there are
281 nuggets that are very worthwhile, and should probably be added
282 back in. Most important, IMHO, are the MH change logs, as they
283 can help answer questions like "Why is this code like this?" or
284 "How long has this been broken?" or "What was this ever used for?"
286 I've added a new file to the nmh tree called
287 ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6. It's cobbled together from the
288 mh-6.8.4/papers/mh*/MHCHANGES files. I've re-ordered the entries
289 to go from newest at the top to oldest at the bottom to match the
290 ChangeLog convention. Unfortunately there are no change logs for
291 versions of MH prior to 3 in the MH tar files available at
292 <ftp://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/mh>. Also, it appears to me that there
293 are MH-6.6 changes that aren't documented in the logs.
295 I've also added ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html. This is
296 based on mh-6.8.4/papers/changes/mh-changes.ms. The nroff format
297 and its "catman"-type output are a pain to deal with, but I was
298 loath to throw away the formatting, so I converted the file to
299 HTML. The only actual markup in the body are the "<B>" and "<U>"
300 tags, and "<" and ">" instead of '<' and '>', so it's quite
301 doable to view the file in plain ASCII mode as well. Note that
302 some of the changes this file documents as having been made in
303 MH-6.8.4 may not be present in nmh -- Richard started with 6.8.3
304 and later put in certain 6.8.4 stuff.
306 Wed Apr 05 21:09:28 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
308 * Applied Eric Schnoebelen <eric@cirr.com>'s mhshowsbr.c patch
309 fixing apparent bugs in Dan Winship's new security quoting code:
311 Since upgrading, I've been getting the following errors
312 while attempting to process some MIME messages:
314 (1) Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
319 (2) line 1/10 (END)Segmentation fault (core dumped)
321 (2) appears to be due to the testing of an unset pointer in
322 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux(). (1) appears to be caused by
323 mis-quoting a filename being handed to the shell in
324 mhshowsbr.c:show_content_aux().
326 Resolving the pointer reference issue in
327 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux() turned up a similar mis-quoting
328 problem in the routine.
330 Tue Mar 28 16:17:39 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
332 * Applied Todd.Miller@courtesan.com's patch to dropsbr.c to
333 prevent core dumping on packf. Here's the note from his message:
335 Since sizeof(buffer) == sizeof(tmpbuffer) packf will dump
336 core on a file w/o a From line with a line >= BUFSIZ.
337 I noticed this because I had a junk file in my mail
340 Fri Mar 17 11:59:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
342 * wesley.craig@umich.edu did not document his previous KPOP patch,
343 so I did so, and asked him to check what I wrote. Unfortunately
344 he didn't notice my misunderstanding of his patch. I wrote that
345 if you #define POPSERVICE "kpop", inc and msgchk will use KPOP
346 exclusively, but if you leave it as "pop3", you can use Wesley's
347 new -kpop switch on a given invocation. Instead, however, -kpop
348 turned out to be necessary on every invocation, and a KPOP user
349 complained. Applied Wesley's new patch, which makes things work
350 like I thought his original patch did. After that, did one more
351 clarifying pass to the documentation in inc.man and msgchk.man.
353 Wed Mar 15 18:45:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
355 * When I fixed the long-standing makedir() bugs in January, I had
356 the code call strtoul(..., 0), which I believed to be safe as all
357 modes specified as ASCII constants in the nmh code started with a
358 leading zero (signifying octal), which I did as it would work if
359 internal constants were ever changed to hex. Unfortunately I was
360 unaware of the "Folder-Protect:" .mh_profile entry, which
361 mh-profile.man documents as an octal-only constant, with no
362 leading zero required. I've changed the strtoul() call to an
363 atooi() call and removed the misleading leading zeroes on the
364 ASCII octal constants in the code and man pages. Also changed the
365 "Folder-Protect:" example in the man page to something more
366 interesting than a duplication of the default.
368 * When I added my --enable-masquerade option, you'll note that I
369 didn't make it --enable-nmh-masquerade. I find the --enable-nmh-*
370 options too wordy and I'm not sure why Richard went that route.
371 I've renamed them to just --enable-*, but the old versions will
372 still work as well (they just aren't advertised).
374 * Added a line to the "nmh configuration" output saying whether
377 * Added a new README.developers file. From the file:
379 This file is intended to provide a few tips for anyone doing
380 development on nmh. Developers who learn things "the hard
381 way" about the nmh codebase (as opposed to local info best
382 encoded in a comment) are encouraged to share their wisdom
385 Currently the topics are "autoconf files" and "directory structure".
387 Tue Mar 14 12:41:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
389 * Applied, after some finessing,
390 Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s --with-smtpservers patch:
392 Here's a patch that allows you to add
394 --with-smtpservers=<some.host.name>
396 to the ./configure command line to set the "servers: " line in
397 etc/mts.conf. Around here, we use "mailhost" so that all
398 machines in the current domain just talk to a central machine
399 and nothing else runs an MTA. Now, I can use
401 --with-smtpservers=mailhost
403 instead of having to remember to fix this by hand (and often
404 forgetting to do so!).
406 * Inspired by Simon's patch, added an --enable-masquerade option
407 to configure. It will set the "masquerade:" line of mts.conf.
408 You may specify a subset of the three types of masquerading, like
409 --enable-masquerade="draft_from mmailid", or leave off explicit
410 arguments to enable all three types.
412 * Alphabetized the --enable and --with options in configure.in and
413 INSTALL and added documentation of the two new options to the latter.
415 * Added new dependency for mts.conf: Makefile. If this isn't
416 done, then when you reconfigure nmh with new values for
417 --enable-masquerade or --with-smtpservers, you'll fail to get an
418 updated copy of mts.conf.
420 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtimep.lex patch:
422 It seems that some MUA's didn't handle y2k very well - ELM
423 seems to be one of them, and Ultrix's DXmail (based on MH!).
424 I've got a few emails this month that look like:
426 575 Jan 00 Xxxxxx Xxxx 3603 ...
428 22+ Jan 00 Xxx Xxxxx 1771 ...
430 The first has "15 Jan 100" as the date and the second has
431 "19 Jan 00" as the date. The following works around this so
432 that scan, show, sortm, etc work ok.
434 I put Simon's patch under the control of a new #define called
435 FIX_NON_Y2K_COMPLIANT_MUA_DATES. There's some commentary in
436 acconfig.h about when you might not want to #define it.
438 * Created new dtimep.c-lexed with Simon's change using dtimep.lex
439 lexed on Solaris 2.6. Added missing dependency in
440 zotnet/tws/Makefile.in for dtimep.c: dtimep.c-lexed.
442 * Added scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD format files.
444 Mon Mar 13 21:32:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
446 * Applied Sullivan N. Beck <sbeck@cise.ufl.edu>'s mhshow-suffix patch:
448 With the patch below, you can add lines like:
450 mhshow-suffix-application/msword: .doc
451 mhshow-suffix-application/PostScript: .ps
453 to the mhn.defaults file to append the given suffix to a
454 scratch file. This allows applications which require a
455 certain suffix to run properly.
457 * Removed -force_html from lynx entry in mhn.defaults.sh (I
458 believe older versions of lynx lack that option) and added
459 "mhshow-suffix-text/html: .html".
461 * Modified username_extension masquerading to only use the
462 extended address on generated [Resent-]From: lines and SMTP
463 envelope From:. With Neil's original implementation, nmh's global
464 idea of the username was changed, which would result in inc lying
465 and saying you had no new mail because it was looking for a
466 mailbox called, for instance, "dan-nmh" (where username was "dan"
467 and $USERNAME_EXTENSION was "-nmh").
469 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtime.c patch:
471 There's a wrap-around problem that affects the implementation
472 of Zeller's congruence in dtime.c. This causes the day-of-week
473 calculations to fail for dates after Feb 29, 2000 (probably up
474 until some year far in the future).
476 Mon Mar 06 12:20:20 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
478 * Applied Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s msh.c patch:
480 I finally tracked down the problem in msh that was causing
481 errors whenever I tried to examine a 'mmdf' style mailbox.
483 It turns out that not enough memory was being allocated with
484 calloc(), causing memory pointers to be overwritten and
487 Fri Mar 03 16:07:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
489 * Changed the new "plussed_user" option to mts.conf's
490 "masquerade:" to "username_extension" after getting feedback from
491 qmail users, who use '-' as a separator rather than '+'. Removed
492 checking of $USERPLUS variable. Now check $USERNAME_EXTENSION,
493 which needs to include the appropriate separator for your MTA
494 ('-', '+', or whatever) as its first character.
496 Thu Mar 02 23:04:30 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
498 * Added a new "boolean" type to mh.h and TRUE and FALSE constants.
500 * Added a note to DIFFERENCES stating that it's out-of-date
501 (Richard was the last one to update it) and that we should
502 consider only documenting incompatibilities with MH there.
504 * Implemented (and documented) a third kind of username
505 masquerading: "plussed user" masquerading. This one was suggested
506 by Neil Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>. It's based on sendmail's
507 "plussed user" feature, where mail sent to <user>+<string> will be
508 delivered to <user>. When it's enabled, it's controlled by the
509 $USERPLUS environment variable. How is it enabled? Well, that
512 * Renamed the "mmailid:" setting in mts.conf to "masquerade:", and
513 changed it so that rather than being a boolean, it can be set to
514 any combination of the three values "draft_from", "mmailid", and
515 "plussed_user". Thus it is now possible to enable the three types
516 of masquerading individually.
518 * Fixed a bug with "mmailid" masquerading (dating back to MH?)
519 where if it was turned on, ','s would no longer be considered
520 GECOS field delimiters.
522 Wed Mar 01 23:30:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
524 * Changed the GECOS-field '&' translation behavior to be
525 controlled by the BSD42 #define rather than GCOS_HACK, since it's
526 apparently always appropriate on OSes where BSD42 is #defined, and
527 never appropriate on any other OSes. Thanks to Kimmo Suominen for
528 responding to my "What is this code here for?" comment in mts.c
529 and explaining the feature.
531 Mon Feb 28 21:50:29 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
533 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3+dev (ideally this should be
534 done by whoever makes a release tar file, immediately after doing
537 * Applied Paul Fox <pgf-spam@foxharp.boston.ma.us>'s scansbr.c
538 patch, posted to comp.mail.mh, which he says prevents loss of mail
539 when inc'ing into a full filesystem.
541 * Changed "echo > stamp-h.in" in Makefile.in to "date > stamp-h.in"
542 so that stamp-h.in will be different each time configure.in and
543 related files are changed, making it easier to check it in (which
544 is necessary to prevent unnecessary autoconf calls).
546 * My declaration of initgroups() in slocal.c to eliminate the "no
547 prototype" warning wasn't portable (FreeBSD 3.[23] choked). Now
548 use AC_EGREP_HEADER to see where initgroups() is declared, if
551 Sun Feb 20 12:17:15 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
553 * Fix security hole in mhshowsbr.c which allowed untrusted shell
556 * Released nmh 1.0.3.
558 Thu Feb 10 10:54:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
560 * Oops. %-escapes on mhstore lines in mhn.defaults.sh should not
561 be surrounded by single quotes, as a shell is not spawned when
562 just saving files, and the filenames will end up with literal
563 quotes embedded in them.
565 Fri Feb 04 12:29:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
567 * Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
568 got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
569 the -help output. One theory is that they were making reference
570 to the fact that clearly you know about the -help option since
571 you're currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea
572 to overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
573 supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
576 The other theory is that because you can say something like
577 "mhstore -" and get "mhstore: - ambiguous. It matches" followed
578 by the same list of switches you get with -help, they were saying
579 you can "sorta" abbreviate "-help" as "-". You don't get the
580 "Usage:" string, though, so it's not really the same thing.
582 Thu Feb 03 17:52:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
584 * Applied wesley.craig@umich.edu's KPOP patches. According to him:
586 The following patch fixes a problem with requesting a
587 service key for a machine that has multiple 'A' records. It
588 also makes "-kpop" a command line option, for users who
589 would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".
591 Did no testing of the new features, as I don't have access to a
594 * Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
596 * Modified INSTALL and config.h.in to reflect the new -kpop feature.
598 Fri Jan 28 17:39:24 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
600 * All %-escapes in mhn.defaults that actually expand to something
601 should be surrounded by single quotes. Added quotes to the ones
602 in mhn.defaults.sh that were missing them.
604 * Added check for lynx to write mhshow-show-text/html line in
607 Thu Jan 27 12:22:25 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
609 * makedir() had multiple bugs dating back to MH. An octal
610 constant was apparently being interpreted as decimal, resulting in
611 directories with no user read or execute permissions, making
612 nested directory creation fail. And there wasn't even an
613 _attempt_ to set desired permissions (e.g. from "Folder-Protect:"
614 in .mh_profile) on the outer directories of a nested directory.
616 * A second `make install' would always fail because the check for
617 whether mh_profile.5 existed was written incorrectly.
619 Wed Jan 26 02:22:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
621 * Added documentation on both types of masquerading to post's man
624 Tue Jan 25 22:58:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
626 * Doug's portability fix of my setgid inc autodetection had a
627 caching bug -- if you re-ran configure, uip/Makefile would be
628 corrupted, and installation would bomb out on OSes where inc needs
631 * Implemented a new kind of email address masquerading. Usually,
632 when a user writes a custom "From:" header in a draft, nmh uses it
633 rather than generating one. However, the user's true address is
634 used in the SMTP envelope "From:" and is revealed in the "Sender:"
635 header. Now, when mmailid is set to non-zero, the envelope
636 "From:" uses the address specified in the draft "From:" header,
637 and there is no "Sender:" header. This is useful when sending on
638 behalf of a remote POP3 account or when remote mail robots
639 incorrectly use the envelope "From:" in preference to the body
640 "From:". This processing has only been implemented for post, not
641 for the undocumented spost (which was already missing some "From:"
642 processing that post has).
644 Mon Jan 24 22:26:06 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
646 * Got rid of the rest of the gcc -Wall warnings that I didn't have
647 time for on 1999-07-15 (and, it would seem, some new ones people
648 introduced since then). The primary ones were the warnings that
649 default prototypes were being used for [v]snprintf() and
650 str[n]casecmp(). As of right now, there are _no_ compilation
651 warnings except on dtimep.c-lexed (at least under AIX 4.1.5 and
654 Sun Jan 2 23:42:18 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
656 * Move mhtest from bindir to libdir.
658 * Move sendfiles from libdir to bindir.
660 * Updated sendfiles manpage to reflect this change.
662 * Added documentation for -build and -file switches to repl and
663 forw manpages (patch from Peter Maydell).
665 * Fixed interaction between specifying -cc in profile and -group on
668 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
670 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
671 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
672 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
675 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
677 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
678 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
679 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
680 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
681 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
682 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).
684 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
686 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
688 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
690 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
691 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
692 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
693 caught again. This works for now.
695 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
697 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
699 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
700 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
702 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
704 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
705 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
707 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
709 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
711 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
713 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
714 changes. Both need more cleanup.
716 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
718 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
719 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
720 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
721 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
722 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
725 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
727 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
728 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
729 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
731 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
732 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
735 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
737 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
738 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
739 to a directory on another device with more free space.
741 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
743 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
744 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
746 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
748 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
751 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
752 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
754 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
755 macros, regardless of platform.
757 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
758 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
760 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
761 with x-conversions=gzip.
763 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
765 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
768 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
769 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
770 implicit definition of ioctl().
772 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
773 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
774 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
775 want to mess with them.
777 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
779 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
780 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
782 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
783 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
785 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
786 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
787 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
789 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
790 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
791 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
793 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
796 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
799 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
800 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
803 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
804 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
807 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
808 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
812 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
814 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
815 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
816 preventing compilation on at least linux.
818 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
819 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
821 Thu Sep 09 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
823 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
825 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
826 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
827 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
828 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
830 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
831 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
833 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
835 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
837 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
839 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
840 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
842 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
844 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
845 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
847 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
848 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
849 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
850 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
852 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
853 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
855 Sat Jun 09 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
857 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
858 substitute it for mktemp if available.
860 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
862 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
863 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
866 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
868 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
870 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
872 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
873 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
875 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
876 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
877 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
879 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
880 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
881 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
883 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
884 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
885 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
887 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
888 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
891 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
892 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
894 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
895 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
897 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
900 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
901 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
902 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
904 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
905 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
907 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
908 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
909 <elleron@servtech.com>.
911 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
912 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
915 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
916 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
918 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
919 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
920 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
921 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
923 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
924 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
926 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
930 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
931 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
932 would not be changed.
934 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
935 one from the Apache web server.
937 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
938 (this should have been done a long time ago).
940 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
941 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
942 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
944 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
946 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
948 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
949 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
952 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
953 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
954 removes a bad race condition.
956 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
959 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
960 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
961 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
963 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
964 sequence information.
966 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
967 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
969 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
972 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
975 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
977 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
978 interpret 034 as octal.
980 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
982 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
983 mhstore, and mhbuild.
985 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
986 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
988 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
989 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
991 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
992 in the c_cefile structure when building.
994 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
995 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
997 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
998 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
999 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
1001 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
1002 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
1003 and mhshow. Updated man pages
1005 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
1007 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
1009 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
1010 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
1013 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
1015 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
1016 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
1018 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
1019 header field information.
1021 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
1022 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
1024 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
1025 values when parsing a content.
1027 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
1028 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
1030 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
1031 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
1033 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
1034 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1036 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
1037 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
1039 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
1041 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
1043 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
1045 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
1047 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
1048 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
1051 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
1052 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
1054 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
1055 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
1056 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
1057 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
1058 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
1059 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
1062 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1064 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
1065 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
1066 buffer length checks for this parameter.
1068 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
1069 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
1071 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1073 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
1074 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
1075 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
1076 of the limits on the length of command lines.
1078 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
1079 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
1082 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
1083 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
1084 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
1085 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
1088 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1090 * Released nmh-0.27.
1092 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
1093 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
1095 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
1096 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
1097 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
1098 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
1101 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
1102 mhbuild returns an error.
1104 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
1105 rename the draft file.
1107 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
1108 use a global variable.
1110 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
1111 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
1113 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
1114 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
1116 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
1117 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
1118 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
1120 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
1121 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
1123 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
1124 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
1127 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
1128 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
1131 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
1132 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
1134 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
1135 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
1136 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
1138 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
1139 to new function output_content_folder.
1141 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
1142 new function output_content_file.
1144 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
1145 to new function parse_format_string.
1147 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
1148 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
1149 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
1150 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
1152 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
1153 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
1154 message/external file from ftp.
1156 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
1157 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
1158 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
1160 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
1161 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
1164 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
1167 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
1168 new file mhstoresbr.c
1170 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
1173 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
1174 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
1176 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
1177 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
1179 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
1180 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
1181 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
1183 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
1185 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
1187 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
1188 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
1191 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
1192 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
1194 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
1197 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
1199 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1201 * Released nmh-0.26.
1203 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
1204 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
1205 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
1206 is still the same (dashstuffing).
1208 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
1209 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
1210 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
1211 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
1212 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
1214 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
1215 But it is not on by default.
1217 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
1218 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
1220 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
1222 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
1224 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
1226 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
1228 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
1229 number of the "cur" message when packing.
1231 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1233 * Released nmh-0.25.
1235 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
1236 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
1237 uses the original name of the library.
1239 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
1240 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
1243 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
1244 list_content and list_debug.
1246 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
1248 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
1249 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.
1251 1998-02-27 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1253 * Released nmh-0.24.
1255 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
1257 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
1258 are given, that order doesn't matter.
1260 * Fix bug in seq_list.c when realloc'ing for
1261 large sequence line.
1263 1998-02-23 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1265 * Released nmh-0.23.
1267 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
1269 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
1270 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan
1271 content, decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary
1272 string). I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
1274 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
1275 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
1278 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
1280 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
1282 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
1284 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
1285 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
1287 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
1288 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.
1290 * Add note to MACHINES file that on Linux, configure
1291 doesn't find the functions sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
1293 * Fix configuration for machines that don't have (or find)
1294 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
1296 1998-02-11 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1298 * Released nmh-0.22.
1300 * Add a configure check for sigsetjmp. Add some conditional
1301 #define's in h/signals.h in case it's not found.
1303 * Added additional notes about -auto switch in mhn man page.
1305 * Added note about MM_CHARSET environment variable to
1306 mh-profile(5) man page.
1308 * Fix signal problem in mhn.c (change setjmp/longjmp to
1309 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp).
1311 1998-02-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1313 * Released nmh-0.22-pre1.
1315 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
1316 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
1318 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
1320 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
1321 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
1322 entry point for parsing MIME files.
1324 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
1325 source message on the standard input.
1327 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
1329 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
1330 rather than -rfc934mode.
1332 * Fix mhbuild, so that Content-Description and RFC-822 comments
1333 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
1336 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
1337 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).
1339 * Restore HP specific code to zotnet/tws/lexstring.c. Apparently
1342 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1344 * Released nmh-0.21.
1346 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
1347 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.
1349 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what transfer
1352 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what character set
1353 to use for text contents.
1355 * Removed old hpux specific code from zotnet/tws/lexstring.c
1357 1998-02-02 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1359 * Released nmh-0.21-pre2.
1361 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
1363 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
1364 header fields as per RFC-2047.
1366 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
1367 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
1368 spaces between encoded word are.
1370 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
1372 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
1373 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
1375 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
1376 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
1377 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
1379 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
1381 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
1382 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
1384 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.
1386 * Added support for %(decode) to fmtdump.c.
1388 * check_charset() now accepts US-ASCII as a subset of any
1389 ISO-8859-X character set.
1391 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
1394 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
1395 permissions, not write permissions.
1397 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
1398 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
1400 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
1403 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1405 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
1407 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
1408 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
1410 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
1411 message contains valid character set.
1413 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
1414 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
1416 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
1417 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
1419 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
1420 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
1421 between an encoded word and normal text.
1423 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
1424 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
1426 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
1427 as a RFC-2047 header field.
1429 * The command install-mh now recognizes the switches -version
1432 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
1433 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
1436 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
1437 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
1439 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
1440 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
1442 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
1444 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1446 * Released nmh-0.20.
1448 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
1450 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.
1452 * Changed the default format file for mhl (mhl.format) to
1453 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
1454 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
1456 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
1457 and the To: line was missing.
1459 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
1461 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1463 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
1465 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
1466 watch the POP transaction.
1468 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
1469 first, and use it if available.
1471 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
1472 first, and use it if available.
1474 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1476 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
1478 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
1479 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
1480 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
1483 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
1484 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
1485 returns the state FLDPLUS.
1487 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
1488 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
1491 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
1493 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
1494 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
1496 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
1498 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
1499 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
1501 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
1502 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
1503 message to which you are replying.
1505 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
1506 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
1507 making group replies.
1509 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
1511 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1513 * Released nmh-0.19.
1515 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
1516 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
1518 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
1519 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
1520 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
1521 to the end of the man page.
1523 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
1524 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
1525 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
1526 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
1527 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
1528 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
1530 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
1533 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
1534 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
1535 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
1537 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
1538 the next available number above the message number you wish
1541 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
1542 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
1544 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
1545 file sbr/seq_print.c
1547 * flist will now update the current folder.
1549 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
1550 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
1551 but now undocumented.
1553 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
1556 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
1557 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
1559 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
1561 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
1562 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
1564 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1566 * Released nmh-0.18.
1568 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
1569 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
1570 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
1572 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
1573 retains the public/private status of sequences.
1575 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
1576 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
1577 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
1578 previous public/private status.
1580 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
1583 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
1586 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
1587 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
1588 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
1590 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
1591 take option to determine whether it should get current
1592 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
1593 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
1595 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
1597 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
1598 wait for stopped processes.
1600 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
1601 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
1603 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1605 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
1607 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
1608 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
1610 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
1611 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
1613 * Change the way that memory for message status is
1614 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
1615 the folder/message structure. This required changing
1616 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
1618 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
1621 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
1624 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
1626 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
1627 the debugging output.
1629 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
1630 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
1632 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1634 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
1636 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
1637 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
1639 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
1641 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
1642 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
1643 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
1644 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
1645 in the given sequence.
1647 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
1648 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
1649 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
1650 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
1651 subdirectories of a given directory.
1653 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
1654 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
1655 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
1657 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
1658 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
1660 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
1662 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
1665 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
1666 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
1667 fields are now calculated at runtime.
1669 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
1670 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
1671 are calculated at runtime.
1673 Sun Nov 30 19:14:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1675 * Released nmh-0.18-pre2.
1677 * Add paragraph to man page for install-mh and to INSTALL file
1678 about checking for global mh.profile.
1680 * Renamed m_find() to context_find().
1681 Renamed m_replace() to context_replace().
1682 Renamed m_delete() to context_del().
1683 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
1684 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
1685 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
1687 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
1688 adding message to folder itself.
1690 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
1691 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
1692 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
1695 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
1696 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
1699 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
1700 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
1701 is the same as the direct smtp code).
1703 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
1704 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
1706 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
1707 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
1708 code to use it yet).
1710 Thu Nov 13 18:42:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1712 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.
1714 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never
1715 called with a value larger than 30 mintues.
1717 * Fixed race condition in rmm and refile, so that
1718 context is updated before external rmmproc is called.
1720 * Removed all the OVERHEAD code.
1722 * Move code to add message to folder from refile.c
1725 Fri Jul 25 19:39:29 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1727 * Did some rearranging of the internals of inc.c.
1729 * Make -inplace the default for anno, forw, dist, and repl.
1731 * Changed --enable-smtp to --with-mts={smtp,sendmail}
1733 * Created new directory mts/sendmail for direct sendmail
1734 interface (although it currently still uses SMTP).
1736 * Removed all the TMA (trusted mail agent) code
1738 * Removed all the TTYD (terminal access daemon) code
1740 * Removed all the MF (uucp filtering) code.
1742 * Removed all the code for BERK.
1744 * Removed all the code for stand-alone delivery (MHMTS).
1746 * Split the file mts/sendmail/smail.c into sendmail.c and
1747 smtp.c. Changed the name of the directory to mts/smtp.
1749 * Changed autoconf to use @sysconfdir@ for location of
1750 configuration files.
1752 * Changed #define in mhn.c from FTP to BUILTIN_FTP.
1754 Mon Jul 21 03:22:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1756 * Released nmh-0.17.
1758 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
1760 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
1761 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
1763 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
1766 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
1767 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
1769 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
1770 number of refiled message.
1772 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
1774 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
1775 for return value of wait().

1785 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
1787 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
1788 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
1789 deal with binary messages, yet).
1791 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
1793 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
1795 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
1796 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
1797 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
1798 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
1799 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
1800 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
1802 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
1803 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
1805 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
1806 From MH-6.8.4 patch.
1808 * Fix double free of ctinfo in user_content when using
1809 #forw with single message. From John MacMillan (and
1812 * Changed -mhnproc switch for show, to -showmimeproc.
1814 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".
1816 * Added "mime" option to "whatnow", which calls the program
1817 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
1820 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
1823 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
1825 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
1826 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
1827 which used unsigned chars by default.

1831 * Released nmh-0.15.
1833 * Added new form "scan.unseen" to distribution. It marks messages

1838 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
1840 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
1843 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
1844 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
1845 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
1847 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
1848 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
1850 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
1852 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
1853 they conflict with defines on AIX.
1855 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
1856 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
1857 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
1858 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
1860 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
1861 and put in own subroutine.
1863 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
1864 and put in own subroutine.
1866 * Moved code to remove messages from folder into own
1867 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and
1868 refile.c to use new routine.

1872 * Renamed m_seqok to seq_nameok.
1874 * Changed m_setunseen, msh, mshcmds, flist, and scan to use
1877 * Changed m_seqflag to return the number of a sequence rather
1878 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
1879 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
1881 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
1884 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before
1885 adding message to sequence.

1893 * Changed mark.c and pick.c to use m_seqaddsel and m_seqdelsel.
1895 * Added new function m_seqdelsel to m_seqdel.c, which deletes
1896 all selected messages from a sequence.
1898 * Added new function m_seqaddsel to m_seqadd.c, which adds all
1899 selected messages to a sequence.
1901 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,
1904 Thu May 15 00:53:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1906 * Renamed function pack_folder to m_packfolder, and moved it
1907 from uip/folder.c into its own file sbr/m_packfolder.c
1909 Wed May 14 23:38:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1911 * Changed function m_gmsg to m_readfolder. Renamed file

1948 * Released nmh-0.13.
1950 * Changed mhpath so it doesn't abort if a message sequence
1951 such as "mhpath all" expands to more than 1000 messages.
1952 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
1953 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
1956 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
1957 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
1959 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1961 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if
1962 necessary. So `folders' can now handle more than 300 folders.
1964 Tue Apr 22 14:01:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1966 * Change configure to use a compile check to see if the tm struct

1991 * Merge Linux patch sent in by Michel Oosterhof (original
1992 patch from bsa@kf8nh.wariat.org).
1994 * Document an undocumented MH feature. mhn -form mhl.null
1995 will suppress the display of the message header.
1997 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
1999 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c
2000 and mshcmds.c, rather than hard coding in /bin/cat.
2002 * Add mhnproc to the list of `procs' in mh-profile.man.
2004 * Add configure test for lorder and tsort commands.
2006 * Commented out the padding in the `msgs` struct in h/mh.h

2009 500 elements at a time (rather than MAXFOLDERS / 5).
2011 * Add note to man page for mhmail that zero length messages are
2012 not sent. Need to use -body "" to send empty messages.
2014 * zotnet/mts/mts.c : compare character with '\0', not NULL.
2016 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
2018 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
2019 folder/message structure when done with folder.
2021 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is
2022 defined even if message is missing "From " line.
2024 Mon Mar 31 03:37:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2026 * Released nmh-0.10.

2036 The "From " line is now removed from all messages.
2038 * inc now saves the date from the "From " envelope in the
2039 Delivery-Date header for all messages.
2041 * sbr/m_getfld.c: Clean up processing of Return-Path and

2046 * client.c: cast iaddr to int before comparing return value
2047 of inet_addr with NOTOK.
2049 Tue Mar 11 04:38:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2051 * Grep test for signal names was failing on some OS'es because

2079 Mon Mar 3 00:18:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2081 * rcvtty.c : Changed to use #define UTMP_FILE (if exists) rather
2082 than hard coded "/etc/utmp".
2084 * Released nmh-0.08.
2086 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
2087 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of
2088 locking database itself.

2092 * Added slocal action `mmdf' to deliver to a file in mmdf format.
2094 * Changed the slocal actions `file' and `>' to always deliver in
2095 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
2098 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
2099 rather than mmdf format.
2101 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
2102 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
2103 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
2104 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
2106 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
2108 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2110 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
2113 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2114 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2115 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
2117 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2118 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2119 rcvpack so you can choose the preferred format.
2121 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2123 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
2124 can still easily change this in config.h).
2126 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
2127 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
2128 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
2130 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2132 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather

2147 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
2149 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
2150 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
2153 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
2154 built-in FTP client in mhn.
2156 * Added configure check for ushort and ulong. Change code
2157 to use ushort/ulong rather than u_short/u_long.
2159 * A couple of small cleanups in locking code.
2161 * Added configure check for gmtoff element in struct tm.
2163 * Added configure check for tzset.

2167 * Released nmh-0.06.
2169 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
2170 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
2172 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
2173 many such machines around anymore.
2175 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
2176 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
2178 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
2179 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
2181 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2183 * Check lex generated file in zotnet/tws and use
2184 pre-generated version if necessary.
2186 * Released nmh-0.05.
2188 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
2189 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
2190 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
2191 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
2193 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
2194 be linked in one pass.
2196 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2198 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
2199 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
2201 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2203 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
2205 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2207 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
2208 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
2209 become the current folder.
2211 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2213 * Released nmh-0.04.

2218 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2220 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
2221 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
2222 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
2224 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2226 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
2227 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
2229 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2231 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
2232 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
2235 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
2236 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
2238 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2240 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
2241 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
2242 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
2243 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
2244 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
2245 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
2247 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2249 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
2250 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
2252 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
2253 a file (currently need to specify full path).
2255 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2257 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
2258 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
2260 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2262 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
2263 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
2264 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
2266 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2268 * Released nmh-0.03.
2270 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
2271 .mh_sequence file existed.
2273 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
2274 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
2276 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
2277 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
2280 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2282 * Changed flist option -unseen to -[no]all. Cleaned up
2285 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2287 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
2288 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
2289 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
2291 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2293 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
2294 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
2295 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
2297 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2299 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL
2300 and allocate its own buffer. Borrowed from zsh.
2302 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
2304 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2306 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
2307 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
2308 directory from where the source code is located.
2310 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2312 * Released nmh-0.02.

2326 * -compat switch from install-mh removed.
2328 * Changed the default POP port from "pop" to "pop3".
2330 Sat Dec 28 13:25:05 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2332 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
2333 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
2334 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
2335 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
2336 rather than in script.
2338 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2340 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
2342 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with

2347 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
2348 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
2350 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
2351 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
2352 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
2353 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
2356 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2358 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
2359 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.
2361 * Fixed configure test so that termcap variable ospeed is
2364 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2366 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
2368 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included
2369 in mhn.c. Changed md5 to use memset and memcpy.
2371 Fri Dec 20 02:29:37 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2373 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
2374 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
2376 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2378 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
2379 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
2380 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
2381 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
2382 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
2383 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
2385 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2387 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
2389 * Released nmh-0.01.
2391 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
2392 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
2393 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
2396 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2398 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
2401 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2403 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
2404 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
2406 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2408 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
2409 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
2410 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
2411 script to find_program.
2413 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2415 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
2416 speed up -recurse option.
2418 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
2419 yet, but it compiles :-)
2421 * Changed default location for install to
2422 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
2423 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
2424 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
2427 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
2428 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
2429 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
