3 * sbr/mf.c: fix buffer overrun with absurdly long addresses
4 (only causes crashes if scan is run with '-width 16536' or similar)
6 2005-11-13 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
8 * bug #7833: uip/Makefile.in: remove link to install-mh that caused
9 problems on some systems
11 * bug #739: Makefile.in: install target now depends on all to avoid
12 problem on case-insensitive file systems with the INSTALL file
14 2005-11-10 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
16 * Fedora Bug #172838: configure.in: Fix the AC_PATH_PROG default when
17 sendmail isn't found during build.
19 2005-11-09 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
21 * h/aliasbr.h: fix a non-ANSI prototype.
23 2005-11-08 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
25 * Simon Burge: acconfig.h, configure.in, uip/rcvtty.c, uip/slocal.c:
26 fix to handle getutent() on NetBSD
28 * INSTALL, README, docs/README.about, man/nmh.man: update most
29 references to the web page and mailing list locations
31 * bug #10230: etc/Makefile.in, man/Makefile.in, uip/Makefile.in:
32 Michael De La Rue: prepend DESTDIR to install locations
34 * configure.in, */Makefile.in, mts/smtp/smtp.c: replace obsolete
37 2005-11-06 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
39 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, sbr/fmt_scan.c, h/prototypes.h: fix various
40 possible overruns of the buffers in fmt_scan() which would cause
41 crashes if scan was run with '-width 16536' or similar.
43 * uip/popsbr.c: fix compile error which only showed up if nmh
44 was configured with --enable-apop.
46 * Debian Bug# 245932, RedHat Bug# 172388: uip/mhparse.c: don't
47 crash when handling a multipart MIME message with an invalid
48 Content-Type header (file handle was being fclose()d twice).
50 * sbr/Makefile.in: adjust lex command to work on both old and
53 * configure.in: add an AC_PREREQ() so autoconf 2.13 gives a helpful
54 error message and the Debian autoconf-version-guessing wrapper
55 doesn't guess wrongly.
57 2005-11-02 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
59 * Debian Bug# 320069: Nick Rusnov: uip/popsbr.c: fail when
60 kpop connection attempted without KPOP support compiled in
62 * Debian Bug# 320090: Nick Rusnov: sbr/Makefile.in: fix for newer
63 version of flex and remove autogenerated file from cvs
65 * patch #1155: uip/flist.c: speed up flist by skipping stat on
66 files with numbers as names
68 * docs/Makefile.in: include new files in distribution
70 2005-10-11 Bill Wohler <wohler@newt.com>
72 * docs/FAQ: fold questions into MH FAQ and distribute that instead
74 2005-10-05 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
76 * Harald Geyer: h/mh.h, uip/replsbr.c: back out previous change
77 (fork/vfork) and replace with code that handles the issue directly
79 2005-05-18 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
81 * Debian Bug# 143485: Nick Rusnov: h/mh.h: use fork instead of
84 * Debian Bug# 261592: Harald Geyer: uip/mhlsbr.c, uip/replsbr.c:
85 test/report error writing to stdout
87 * mts/smtp/smtp.c, uip/popsbr.c: correct SASL include file locations
89 * docs/COMPLETION-BASH: bash completion definitions from Debian
91 * patch #2863: savannah@brisammon.fastmail.fm: sbr/folder_read.c:
92 fix a bug affecting AFS where nmh was setting the READONLY flag
93 for a folder even when you do have write access to the folder
95 * Carl Mummert: h/fmt_compile.h, man/mh-format.man,
96 sbr/fmt_compile.c, sbr/fmt_scan.c: add unquote() function for
97 removing quotes from RFC-2822 encoded headers
99 2005-02-23 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
101 * use iconv to convert RFC-2047 encoded headers to the
102 character set used by the current locale
104 * sbr/folder_read.c fix Debian bug #202667: crash when a
105 message's filename overflows an int when converted
107 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
108 versions (from automake 1.9.5)
110 2005-02-21 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
112 * sbr/getpass.c fix bug where inc crashed on failing to reopen
115 2005-01-27 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
117 * Added -proxy option to inc and msgchk. Based on old patch
118 from Michael Richardson.
120 * On systems where it is available, use nl_langinfo to get the
121 character set if MM_CHARSET is unset
123 2005-01-21 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
125 * sbr/check_charset.c US-ASCII is a subset of UTF-8 so can be
126 handled directly when UTF-8 is being used
128 2004-12-17 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
130 * uip/mhmisc.c Fix -part option to mhshow/mhlist/mhstore to
131 find sub-parts of the specified part
133 2004-11-19 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
135 * h/prototypes.h, sbr/folder_addmsg.c, uip/mhstoresbr.c,
136 uip/rcvstore.c, uip/refile.c: Added mail directory argument to
137 folder_addmsg in order to make it possible to provide a path to
138 the ext_hook call that is mailpath-based. A problem existed when
139 a folder was a symbolic link and the pwd call would return the
140 path relative to the filesystem, not to mailpath. A new argument
141 was needed because there was otherwise no reasonable way to get
144 2004-11-16 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
146 * sbr/folder_pack.c: Fixed problem where the refile hook was being
147 called after a message was renamed so that it wasn't around for
148 the hook. The hook is now called before the message file is
151 * sbr/folder_addmsg.c: Fixed wrong directory for hook when
152 refiling with -src option.
154 2004-10-15 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
156 * uip/sortm.c: Fixed calling of external hooks.
158 2004-10-12 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
160 * uip/inc.c: Fixed another weird bug caused by the static
161 mailpath being overwritten.
163 * uip/sendsbr.c: Fixed bug that caused anno to mangle headers.
165 * sbr/lock_file.c: Fixed strange bug that prevented a lock from
166 ever being obtained if getting it failed the first time. The
167 problem was that the string of XXXXXX that is required by
168 mkstemp() was overwritten the first time through, and so all
169 subsequent times failed because mkstemp() failed. The fix
170 reinitializes the tmp file string.
172 * uip/inc.c: Fixed bug in which the static maildir was overwritted
173 if a format string was read from the profile.
175 * sbr/folder_delmsgs.c: Fixed bug that was producing an incorrect
176 path for the external hook.
178 2003-10-06 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
180 * uip/slocal.c, configure.in: db configuration fix for Debian; yet
181 another location for ndbm.
183 2003-09-30 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
185 * Fix 'pick' so handling of options "-list" and "-seq" are
187 * Fix 'inc' realloc error when bringing in more than 100 msgs
189 * Patches submitted by Nick Rusnov from Debian archive applied:
192 136976 - Handle binary content messages
193 143427 - mh-format.man typo
194 144098 - 'spost; should have same behavior as 'post'
195 w.r.t. mts.conf masquerade line
196 149745 - slocal ignores 'N' result of previous command
197 152728 - increase SMTP timeouts to conform to RFC 1123
198 The timeouts suggested by the RFC seem long
199 to me - but the RFC is still listed as active.
200 181867 - typo for nmh.man
202 2003-08-10 Jeffrey C Honig <jch@honig.net>
204 * Fix problem where parsing of address/date fields in fmt_compile
205 is optimized to the first instance. The first instance may be in
206 contitional code which will result in cached data to
207 be used. Instead, convert c_flags to a flags field from a boolean
208 and parse on the first use.
209 * Remove some unused flag bits.
211 Fri Jul 01 22:02:00 2003 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
213 * Applied fixes for configuration problems with Solaris and
214 systems with gdbm instead of db1 (includes bug #2024)
216 #578 - repl leaks umask
217 #1393 - sortm core dumps
218 #1650 - msh leaks file descriptors
219 #1730 - Double free() in mhfree.c:free_encoding()
220 #3356 - In-Reply-To header in default replcomps should be
222 * Revised man page for mh-format (bug #2031)
223 * New replcomps, etc, with Fcc: +outbox in default versions
225 Sat Mar 17 03:18:15 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
227 * Ken Hornstein's configure.in Cyrus SASL checks were doing
228 `x"$with_cyrus_sasl" != "no"' instead of `... != x"no"'.
230 Tue Mar 06 21:04:27 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
232 * Found some historical information about MH in RFC 808.
233 Supplemented it with info from Jerry Peek's MH book and added it
234 to docs/README.about.
236 Tue Feb 6 20:35:40 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
238 * sbr/dtime.c Use the same Y2K correction code as dtimep.lex
240 * sbr/dtimep.lex Restrict the parser to accept either
241 a numerical timezone offset, or a symbolic one (e.g. EST),
242 but not both (Since "2000 -400 EDT" might cause a double
243 subtraction of 60 minutes if both are parsed. One should be
246 Mon Feb 05 20:22:54 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
248 * -L isn't sufficient for specifying the path of the Cyrus SASL
249 shared library. That'll allow us to link successfully, but on
250 many/most OSes that won't allow us to find libsasl at runtime. On
251 Solaris, we need to specify the library path with -R as well (or
252 else the user will have to use the $LD_LIBRARY_PATH kludge, which
253 is considered harmful). This fix should be extended to other OSes
256 * Print whether we have SASL support in the "nmh configuration"
257 summary configure prints out.
259 * Say in README.developers to use `\date' in case anyone is like
260 me and has `date' aliased in their shell to use a nonstandard (but
261 subjectively more readable) format.
263 Thu Jan 25 21:15:52 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
265 * man/mh-chart.man has updated synposes of
268 Tue Jan 23 20:26:15 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
270 * etc/digestcomps tried to force dates into a
271 19xx when it's not necessary.
273 Fri Jan 19 21:22:08 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
275 * First round of manpage updates finished. They
276 are standardized on -man macros, with minimal
279 * man/tmac.h.in is no longer needed, since the
280 manpages do not depend on them anymore. Note:
281 strict "man" programs that didn't allow ".so"
282 sourcing outside the man tree will now format
283 the man pages correctly.
285 * man/vmh.1 is no longer built, since uip/vmh isn't
287 Tue Jan 9 6:01:22 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
289 * Finished manpages ali-prev
291 * Removed deprecated files from the repository.
292 Specifically, those rooted in zotnet/ and mts/sendmail
293 mts/mmdf. "cvs update -dP" will give a pruned directory
296 * Updated docs/Makefile.in to include README.manpages, and
297 uip/Makefile.in to include popi.c (which isn't being built,
298 though). This allows "make nmhdist" to create an archive that
299 is file-for-file identical to the current cvs repository.
301 Sun Dec 31 20:48:50 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
303 * Create docs/README.manpages, which details
304 the formatting rules I've been using.
308 Sat Dec 30 9:50:13 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
310 * Created a new file "DATE" to hold the date
311 of the most recent nmh release. This date will be
312 used in the manpages.
314 * Updated docs/README.developers to add the step
315 of updating DATE. Also, updated configure to
316 read in the contents of the file as the variable
319 * Started work on updating man pages, with only
320 ali finished so far. Changes: 1) no dependence
321 on an external macro file, 2) uses only
322 -man macros (although I may be mistaken in this),
323 3) syntax in the SYNOPSIS is a little more
324 in line with standard UNIX documentation, such as
325 bold flags and italicized parameters.
327 Sun Dec 24 10:06:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
329 * Updated INSTALL with information about the
330 --with-locking option.
332 * Fixed the Hesiod tests in configure.in. In
333 systems where res_send was in -lresolv, this
334 information was not being communicated to the
335 HESIOD_LIBS var. Now, if res_send is not found
336 in the default libraries, it's assumed to be
337 in -lresolv, and thus -lresolv is appended to
338 HESIOD_LIBS, which will need that to avoid
339 undefined symbols problems.
341 * Fixed the Kerberos tests in configure.in. New
342 versions of Kerberos 5 have renamed -lcrypto
343 to -lk5crypto (circa krb5 1.1 or thereabouts). The
344 new test tries to determine if -lk5crypto exists. If so,
345 this is a new krb5 system. If not, test for -lcrypto
346 and the rest of old krb5. If that fails, look
347 for a genuine krb4 installation.
349 Fri Dec 22 22:08:51 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
351 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in msgchk.man.
352 -snoop was documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
354 Fri Dec 22 23:42:16 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
356 * Made a new ./configure option called
357 "--with-locking" that allows the file
358 locking mechanism to be chosen there instead of
359 requiring a manual edit of config.h.
361 * If the option is not explicitly set, or an
362 invalid option is specified, "dot" locking is
363 chosen. Valid options are "dot", "fcntl",
364 "flock", and "lockf". We need a way to tell
365 the user that these are the valid options, and
366 change the flag "--with-locking" if it's not
369 Fri Dec 22 19:21:29 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
371 * Remove the lex-specific memory hints at the
372 beginning of sbr/dtimep.lex. We've already
373 committed to supporting flex only, since
374 lex does not easily allow us to parse a single
375 string, as well as other problems documented
376 below and on nmh-workers.
378 * Added a switch statement to configure.in to
379 test for Mac OS X. If this is the case, LDFLAGS
380 should not contain "-s" since the linker rejects
383 * Updated MACHINES to include Mac OS X Public Beta,
384 as well as Linux 2.4 running glibc 2.2.
386 Wed Dec 20 16:00:46 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
388 * Marked deprecated directories in docs/README.developers
389 as deprecated, with pointers to the new code location.
390 Eventually these deprecated directories should go away.
392 Tue Dec 19 19:16:37 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
394 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in inc.man. -snoop was
395 documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
397 Thu Dec 14 14:32:09 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
399 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
400 versions on ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/config, dated
401 12-07-00. This should prevent configure from failing
402 on newer operating systems because config.{guess,sub}
403 couldn't correctly identify them.
405 Thu Dec 14 1:30:44 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
407 * Fixed the circular dependency created when I moved
408 zotnet/mts to mts/generic and merged them into libmts.
409 mts/generic/client.c and mts/generic/mts.c are now in sbr/
410 (and thus in libmh), which makes libmh self-contained and
411 not depending on an external archive.
413 * All include statements now look for mts.h in h/. The
414 Makefiles and configure script have been modified so that
415 mts/generic is no longer built.
417 Mon Dec 11 22:08:07 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
419 * When Shantonu made the new libmts.a, he swapped $(MTSLIB) and
420 libmh.a in sbr/Makefile.in so that libmh.a comes first, but this
421 causes the build to fail on Solaris, because libmts.a has to get
422 ruserpass() out of libmh.a. Swapping them back to the way Ken
423 Hornstein's patch (which I applied on Jul 20) put them, with
424 libmh.a correctly coming second. If there are times when libmts.a
425 needs to come second, then it would appear there's a circular
426 dependency and someone (Shantonu?) did an mts merge incorrectly.
428 Fri Sep 8 01:36:23 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
430 * Took out bad time textual time zones like BST and JST.
431 I found them online somewhere, but am not sure if they're
434 Fri Sep 8 00:36:48 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
436 * Moved zotnet/mts to mts/generic. This code reorganization
437 makes the entire zotnet tree deprecated -- bboards is unneeded,
438 mf was was moved to sbr, tws was rewritten and moved to sbr, and
441 * Created a new static library called libmts.a used during
442 compilation which includes the generic mts code and the
443 smtp/sendmail code. This supercedes the functionality of the
444 old libsmtp.a and the remains of libzot.a.
446 * Updated header includes to reference the new location of mts.h
447 in mts/generic/mts.h. Also, update the configure and top-level
448 Makefile not to descend into zotnet. Also, they don't descend
449 into mts/mmdf and mts/sendmail (the sendmail code has been
450 merged into the smtp code).
452 * Added #include <h/nmh.h> to h/md5.h, since my compile was
453 complaining about implicitly-declared memcpy and memset, which
454 appear to be in strings.h. In any event, nmh.h should take care
457 * When doing a "make nmhdist", notice that the generated
458 snapshot does not include zotnet of the mts directories as noted
459 above. Since they are no longer compiled, and I don't see any
460 obvious code path to get to them, end-users should probably
461 not need them. If you think otherwise, turn Makefile generation
462 back on in configure.in and turn on recursion into those dirs
463 in the appropriate Makefile.in
465 Wed Sep 6 22:40:03 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
467 * Tracked down the problem in the new dtimep where time
468 zones were being radically misreported. It was because the
469 parser knew about military time zones (such as M or E) but in
470 some cases did not know about the textual representation of
471 some zones (like MET). When it encountered one of these, the
472 date parser misread MET as the military time zone T (well, first
473 zone M, then E, and finally T). I took military zones out, and
474 things seem much better. Also, the default behavior of parsing
475 time zones appears to default to GMT in the absence of better
476 info, which is less bogus than assuming the mail came from the
477 current time zone, which was the behavior in 1.04.
479 Thu Aug 10 13:22:13 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
481 * Decided that limiting the message number columns to 3 on my
482 scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD (to try to regain space taken by
483 extra date info) was ill-conceived. It's not that tough to get
484 past 999 messages, though I imagine it's rather rare to exceed
485 9999. Changed these to 4. Also put the "replied / encrypted"
486 column back in YYYYMMDD -- I've never seen it show anything but a
487 space, but that space is useful if you use scan, grep, and awk
488 (with the default field separator) to grab message numbers (I know
489 -- pick should really be used for these purposes...).
491 Mon Aug 7 20:11:09 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
493 * Modify umask set by mhshow to enable user execute bit, so that
494 viewers that create temporary directories (e.g., lynx) will be
497 Thu Aug 03 17:14:08 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
499 * TODO: Allow multiple simultaneous differing contexts, probably
500 each tied to a parent (terminal) process.
502 Tue Aug 1 10:48:05 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
504 * Makefile install rules should not look for generated files in
505 the source tree -- this will happen to work when configuring and
506 building inside the source tree but will fail when using an
507 external build tree. Fixed etc/Makefile.in.
509 Mon Jul 24 16:20:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
511 * When Shantonu wrote the new, more portable dtimep.lex, he left
512 out the #ifdef DSTXXX stuff for some reason. Not a good idea, as
513 that code is required for proper printing of numeric-offset
514 timezones that have daylight saving time. Without that code,
515 -0700 during DST gets printed as MST instead of PDT.
517 * Renamed DSTXXX as ADJUST_NUMERIC_ONLY_TZ_OFFSETS_WRT_DST and
518 added an explanatory comment by its #definition.
520 * Updated README.developers with the fact that zotnet/tws is going away.
522 Thu Jul 20 20:30:52 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
524 * Moved Kimmo's new "--with-hash-backup" to be output with the
525 rest of the --with options in the configure --help output. Also,
526 people did not preserve my alphabetization of the --with options
527 when they added new ones. Re-alphabetized.
529 * One more pass at README.developers now that it's clear that my
530 previously-suggested one-line autoconf-file commit can cause
531 unnecessary local makes and an out-of-sync stamp-h.in file, but
532 would not cause problems for other people using the CVS files.
534 * Ken Hornstein's SASL patch was not integrated properly with
535 Ruud's new merged mts/sendmail code. Kimmo has since fixed nmh so
536 it compiles, but according to Ken, the SASL stuff still does not
537 work. Integrating a patch from him for this.
539 * Last pass at README.developers -- Kimmo's 5-step commit was
540 overkill. You only need 3 steps, since configure.in is the only
541 autoconf file with the RCS $Id keyword.
543 * Applied Kurt J. Lidl <lidl@eng.us.uu.net>'s $MAILHOST patch:
545 I have a small patch that would be nice to be included --
546 basically, it allows the usage of the "MAILHOST" environment
547 variable, without having to have HESIOD turned on. I need
548 this functionality for my environment, where we have identical
549 /usr/local on all my machines (so I cannot just hardcode into
550 the mts.conf file), and I have multiple POP mail servers for
553 Modified inc.man to reflect that along with "pophost:" and -host,
554 $MAILHOST can now activate POP mail inclusion as well.
556 * Fixed warnings from diff on first-time install of nmh. Also
557 added 'echo's clarifying the etc file installation activities.
559 Tue Jul 18 19:36:59 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
561 * Added the answer to Dan's question in README.developers.
563 Mon Jul 17 19:10:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
565 * Clarified and made some corrections to Kimmo's README.developers
566 changes (BTW, if anyone can explain why the RCS Ids are able to cause
567 problems with the dependencies, please fill in the explanation --
568 I never encountered a problem with the old single-commit method).
570 Sat Jul 15 23:13:49 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
572 * Add configure option --with-hash-backup so the backup prefix can
573 be easily changed from "," to "#".
575 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that it works with any make.
577 * Use mkstemp in sbr/lock_file.c.
579 * Commits of autoconf-related files apparently can't all be done
580 in one shot due to RCS Ids changing when committing -- updated
583 Tue Jul 11 14:18:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
585 * Clarified post.man and send.man for those not completely up on
586 SASL terminology. "SASL encryption layers are not supported for
587 SMTP" means that encryption is supported for the authentication
588 but not for the subsequent data stream.
590 Sat Jul 8 01:36:19 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
592 * Applied Ken Hornstein <kenh@cmf.nrl.navy.mil>'s patches
593 implementing SASL support for POP3 and SMTP. If nmh is compiled
594 with SASL support, using the -sasl switch on the inc, msgchk,
595 post, and send commands will enable authentication encryption for
596 SMTP, and both authentication and data stream encryption for POP3.
598 Sat Jun 10 18:37:59 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
600 * Merged mts/sendmail functionality into mts/smtp; switching between
601 smtp and sendmail delivery method is now controlled by mts.conf.
603 * If tsort cannot deal with loops, in addition to defining tsort as
604 cat, also define lorder as echo.
606 * Removed uip/popi.c from list of sources.
608 Thu Jun 08 19:36:57 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
610 * New dtimep.lex didn't parse day names properly. Fixed. Also
611 clarified ambiguous comments preceding day_map[] array (from old
612 dtimep.lex) that probably led to the erroneous cp++ being added.
614 Wed Jun 7 20:52:33 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
616 * Added one more mkstemp invocation to uip/spost.c (which was in a
619 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to clean up permissions handling
620 and error handling in uip/inc.c.
622 Mon Jun 5 22:10:07 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
624 * Use cat instead of tsort if tsort cannot deal with loops in its
625 input (which is the case for tsort from GNU textutils).
627 Mon Jun 5 21:14:36 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
629 * If lockfile is present, and its dotlockfile program is setgid,
630 inc does not need to be setgid.
632 Sun Jun 4 21:35:40 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
634 * Added autoconf test for Miquel van Smoorenburg's liblockfile
635 library, as found on Debian systems.
637 * Added liblockfile support to sbr/lock_file.c.
639 Wed May 31 7:19:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
641 * Fixed up dtimep.lex a bit. Added back memory options for AIX to
642 increase available memory. Took out %option noyywrap, which
643 wasn't understood by AT&T lex, as well as the -i
644 case-insensitivity flag.
646 Wed May 31 07:40:45 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
648 * Added a lint target to the Makefiles and a check in autoconf
649 to determine whether lint or lclint exists on the system.
651 Fri May 30 19:21:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
653 * etc/Makefile.in was incorrectly installing mts.conf.in and
654 sendfiles.in -- fixed. Generated sendfiles script was not a
655 dependency of the `all' target, and was incorrectly included in
656 the distribution. Changed the suffix for the backed-up previous
657 versions of the etc files from the ambiguous .old to .prev. Added
658 call to diff -- only keep the .prev files around if different from
659 the newly-installed versions (intentionally didn't redirect output
660 to /dev/null so you'll notice when your changed versions are
661 getting moved aside).
663 * INSTALL never documented the etc/*.old thing. Documented the
664 new etc/*.prev thing (including a note to watch for diff output).
666 * Applied Alec Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu>'s dropsbr.c patch:
668 In the map_write routine, a call is made to map_open and this
669 call is supposed to set the "clear" variable to 0 or 1,
670 depending on whether the map file is empty or not. In
671 mh6.8.3, this worked because map_open would set "clear" by
672 calling the mbx_Xopen routine. In nmh, the code for mbx_Xopen
673 was merged into mbx_open, but the interface for mbx_open
674 doesn't support the clear variable, so that functionality was
675 lost. The map_open interface still contains "int *clear" in
676 the prototype, but never sets it.
678 My patch eliminates "clear" from the map_open interface (I
679 checked to make sure that map_write is the only client of
680 map_open). Furthermore, my patch also sets the "clear"
681 variable properly at the beginning of map_write by calling
682 fstat(). This eliminates the bug in that the value of "clear"
683 being used later in the routine was just stack garbage.
685 Having a bad value of clear causes this next bug to be
686 triggered: The fp file pointer was being opened with fdopen,
687 but in two of the three switch cases it wasn't being closed.
688 In certain cases, this was causing packf to run out of file
689 descriptors if you attempted to pack a large folder.
691 Mon May 29 7:48:15 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
693 * Moved the date parsing routines from zotnet/tws to sbr/ (and
694 tws.h to h/). Updated all source files to reflect to new location
697 * Rewrote dparsetime (in dtimep.lex -> dtimep.c) to replace the
698 old zotnet/tws/dtimep.c, dtimep.lex, lexstring.c, lexedit.c, and
699 dtimep.c-lexed. It should now work with flex (although untested
700 with lex), and requires no sed-ing. For now, I have the lexed
701 version in the distribution, so that end-users don't need to worry
702 about running it through flex/lex. I have not added back support
703 for guessing the time zone when it's not specified.
705 Sun May 28 17:44:15 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
707 * Added autoconf check for getutent().
709 * Changed uip/rcvtty.c and uip/slocal.c to use getutent() and
710 friends. Since I can only check on Linux, please check if
711 this works on other systems.
713 Sun May 28 14:58:49 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
715 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to uip/scansbr.c for more
716 checks for write failures.
718 * Unlink temporary file properly in uip/rcvtty.c.
720 * Moved viamail from bindir to libdir.
722 * Changed sendfiles into sendfiles.in, so that path to viamail
725 * Added gzip support to sendfiles.
727 * Added References header to replcomps and replgroupcomps.
729 Sun May 28 14:39:31 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
731 * Fixed m_getfld bug which caused segmentation faults when
732 incorporating messages which ended in multiple linefeeds crossing
735 Fri May 26 13:21:59 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
737 * msh has been unable to show MIME messages ever since 1.0. Alec
738 Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu> tracked down the problem to the
739 -show flag being passed to mhshow. mhshow is equivalent to the
740 old mhn -show, so we don't need the -show anymore. Removed it.
742 Fri May 12 02:51:21 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
744 * zotnet/bboards is not longer built by default. Goal is to move
745 the assorted functions in zotnet into sbr or some more logical
748 * Moved zotnet/mf to sbr, and changed mf.h references accordingly,
749 as well as Makefiles.
751 Thu May 11 02:21:34 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
753 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that both SRCS and OBJS aren't
754 seperately and redundantly defined, but so that OBJS is a
755 pattern-substituted version of SRCS with suffix .c -> .o. This
756 should make maintainability easier.
758 * Added section to MACHINES indicating what platforms nmh is known
759 to compile and work on, just to give users peace of mind, or
760 something. This is by no means complete or exhaustive, so add
761 whatever you know works.
763 Tue May 09 20:38:04 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
765 * Alphabetized Shantonu's $pop_kinds output on configure's "pop is
766 enabled" line. If POP3 is the only kind of POP enabled, say so,
767 rather than just saying "yes" (which is ambiguous).
769 * Fixed four warnings in Shantonu's new getpass.c. Needed to
770 #include <stdlib.h> for calloc(), <unistd.h> for ttyname(), and
771 "h/mh.h" for adios(). Also changed ch from char to int to get rid
772 of "comparison is always 1 due to limited range of data type" on EOF.
774 * Added steps to README.developers saying to change the version
775 number to X.Y.Z+dev. Did a little rearranging and changed the FTP
776 dir from /home/ftp to /var/ftp to reflect Doug's new machine.
778 * Changed configure.in to use gcc -Wall even without
779 --enable-debug, to prevent developers compiling optimized from
780 introducing warnings, and to give end-users a warm, fuzzy feeling
781 as they (hopefully) see no warnings come out (except perhaps on
782 the lex output file) even with -Wall.
784 * Renamed getpass() to nmh_getpass() since the prototype for
785 getpass() varies from OS to OS, and we want to _always_ use our
786 version of the function. Fixed all the callers to use
787 nmh_getpass() and added it to prototypes.h. Semi-arbitrarily
788 upped MAX_PASSWORD_LEN from 128 to 256. buf was being calloc()'d
789 and the memory leaked -- should have just been declared as static
790 char array. Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the
791 copyright message, as this version has been changed significantly
792 from the BSD version.
794 * Added "nmh-local functions to use in preference to OS versions"
795 section to README.developers (currently just says to use
796 nmh_getpass() instead of system getpass()).
798 * Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the copyright message
801 * Added mts.conf.5 page per Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s
804 This happens on solaris:
807 windex entry incorrect: mts.conf(5) not found.
808 No manual entry for mts.conf.
812 % echo ".so man5/mh-tailor.5" > mts.conf.5
814 done in the man5 directory. We need to add 'mts.conf.5' as a
815 reference sourcing mh-tailor.5.
817 Mon May 08 23:51:55 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
819 * Doug informed me that the way I had restored the "lost" version
820 histories was wrong, because `cvs checkout's of old versions of
821 nmh wouldn't work properly. It occurs to me that this could be
822 fixed by simply deleting those tags in the new-location *,v files,
823 but oh well. I'm putting everything back to the way Doug
824 originally had it. To get the old version history for a file that
825 used to be in the top directory, you'll need to "blindly" do a
826 `cvs log' there (even though you won't have a local copy of the
827 file in that directory). `cvs diff' will no longer be able to
828 diff pre-move versions vs. post-move versions -- you'll have to do
829 a lot of manual gyrations with `cvs checkout' and then use `diff'.
831 * I had alphabetized the --configure options in the --help output
832 awhile back, but Shantonu added --enable-apop just under
833 --enable-pop. Put it in alphabetical order and clarified what
834 --enable-apop does vs. --enable-pop and --with-krb4. Also changed
835 --with-mts help line from "mail transport agent" to "mail
836 transport agent/service" so the 's' in "mts" doesn't seem to come
839 * Added two steps to "releasing nmh" in README.developers. After
840 making the tarball, it's a good idea to diff the tree vs. the CVS
841 tree to make sure no files got left out, and then to chown the
842 files so that they're owned by root, preventing a Trojaning attack
843 by a malicious remote user with a UID matching yours.
845 * Changed DIFFERENCES to say that RPOP is not currently supported
846 rather than implying it by saying that APOP, KPOP, and POP[3] are.
848 Sun May 07 18:16:43 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
850 * Imported NetBSD version of getpass() and made extensive
851 revisions for compatibility with programs that pipe the password
852 to stdin, such as exmh.
854 * Removed tests for system ruserpass() which sometimes gave
855 phantom positive results. Also, bext to use internal functions if
856 we ever want to change .netrc format to something else, or access
859 Sat May 06 08:28:09 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
861 * Restored lost version histories for those moved files by doing a
862 manual `mv' in the CVSROOT on mhost. CVS badly needs a `cvs mv'
863 command so that you can move files (without having physical access
864 to the CVSROOT) without losing versioning. Put MACHINES back at
865 the top level as it needs to be read before building. Fixed DIST
866 variable in {.,docs}/Makefile.in to reflect that and to add
867 missing entry for "INSTALL" file.
869 Sat May 06 13:13:07 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
871 * Re-cleaned up nmh documentation (by moving things to docs
872 subdir) and modified Makefile & configure.in to handle the change.
874 Mon Apr 17 21:28:40 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
876 * Scott Blachowicz pointed out that the configure --help output
877 for --enable-masquerade was misleading. Clarified.
879 Mon Apr 17 19:01:00 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
881 * APOP support can be compiled in to inc and msgchk using
884 * To access an APOP host, specify -apop on the command line
885 along with any -host or -user option.
887 Fri Apr 14 23:10:44 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
889 * Upped the version number to 1.0.4+dev until the next nmh release.
891 * Added a "releasing nmh" section to README.developers, while the
892 process was fresh in my mind.
894 Fri Apr 14 18:21:34 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
896 * Added new files README.developers, ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6, and
897 ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html to DIST target in Makefile.in.
899 * Released nmh-1.0.4.
901 Tue Apr 11 21:37:03 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
903 * Applied Brian Campbell <bacam@tardis.ed.ac.uk>'s mhn.defaults.sh
906 It appears that there shouldn't be quotes around the %s in the
907 iso-8859-1 charset entry; xterm passes the remaining arguments
908 to the program, quoting them means that xterm thinks they're
909 part of the program's name.
911 This %s isn't the same as the "Insert content subtype" one from
912 mhshow-show-* -- it doesn't come from MIME headers and is safe not
915 Sun Apr 09 13:03:59 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
917 * added check in fmt_compile() to handle a single-character
918 format string. fmt_compile() depends on having an array of
919 format characters with an empty item at the end. A
920 single-character format would cause programs using this
921 function to segfault because the algorithm used to decide on
922 the length of the array mistakenly created a single-item array
923 when the format string was one character. This eventually
924 caused problems when the program attempted to test item+1
927 Thu Apr 06 21:53:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
929 * Richard Coleman threw out a lot of old MH-specific files in nmh.
930 Much of the stuff, indeed, is not worth saving, but there are
931 nuggets that are very worthwhile, and should probably be added
932 back in. Most important, IMHO, are the MH change logs, as they
933 can help answer questions like "Why is this code like this?" or
934 "How long has this been broken?" or "What was this ever used for?"
936 I've added a new file to the nmh tree called
937 ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6. It's cobbled together from the
938 mh-6.8.4/papers/mh*/MHCHANGES files. I've re-ordered the entries
939 to go from newest at the top to oldest at the bottom to match the
940 ChangeLog convention. Unfortunately there are no change logs for
941 versions of MH prior to 3 in the MH tar files available at
942 <ftp://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/mh>. Also, it appears to me that there
943 are MH-6.6 changes that aren't documented in the logs.
945 I've also added ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html. This is
946 based on mh-6.8.4/papers/changes/mh-changes.ms. The nroff format
947 and its "catman"-type output are a pain to deal with, but I was
948 loath to throw away the formatting, so I converted the file to
949 HTML. The only actual markup in the body are the "<B>" and "<U>"
950 tags, and "<" and ">" instead of '<' and '>', so it's quite
951 doable to view the file in plain ASCII mode as well. Note that
952 some of the changes this file documents as having been made in
953 MH-6.8.4 may not be present in nmh -- Richard started with 6.8.3
954 and later put in certain 6.8.4 stuff.
956 Wed Apr 05 21:09:28 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
958 * Applied Eric Schnoebelen <eric@cirr.com>'s mhshowsbr.c patch
959 fixing apparent bugs in Dan Winship's new security quoting code:
961 Since upgrading, I've been getting the following errors
962 while attempting to process some MIME messages:
964 (1) Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
969 (2) line 1/10 (END)Segmentation fault (core dumped)
971 (2) appears to be due to the testing of an unset pointer in
972 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux(). (1) appears to be caused by
973 mis-quoting a filename being handed to the shell in
974 mhshowsbr.c:show_content_aux().
976 Resolving the pointer reference issue in
977 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux() turned up a similar mis-quoting
978 problem in the routine.
980 Tue Mar 28 16:17:39 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
982 * Applied Todd.Miller@courtesan.com's patch to dropsbr.c to
983 prevent core dumping on packf. Here's the note from his message:
985 Since sizeof(buffer) == sizeof(tmpbuffer) packf will dump
986 core on a file w/o a From line with a line >= BUFSIZ.
987 I noticed this because I had a junk file in my mail
990 Fri Mar 17 11:59:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
992 * wesley.craig@umich.edu did not document his previous KPOP patch,
993 so I did so, and asked him to check what I wrote. Unfortunately
994 he didn't notice my misunderstanding of his patch. I wrote that
995 if you #define POPSERVICE "kpop", inc and msgchk will use KPOP
996 exclusively, but if you leave it as "pop3", you can use Wesley's
997 new -kpop switch on a given invocation. Instead, however, -kpop
998 turned out to be necessary on every invocation, and a KPOP user
999 complained. Applied Wesley's new patch, which makes things work
1000 like I thought his original patch did. After that, did one more
1001 clarifying pass to the documentation in inc.man and msgchk.man.
1003 Wed Mar 15 18:45:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1005 * When I fixed the long-standing makedir() bugs in January, I had
1006 the code call strtoul(..., 0), which I believed to be safe as all
1007 modes specified as ASCII constants in the nmh code started with a
1008 leading zero (signifying octal), which I did as it would work if
1009 internal constants were ever changed to hex. Unfortunately I was
1010 unaware of the "Folder-Protect:" .mh_profile entry, which
1011 mh-profile.man documents as an octal-only constant, with no
1012 leading zero required. I've changed the strtoul() call to an
1013 atooi() call and removed the misleading leading zeroes on the
1014 ASCII octal constants in the code and man pages. Also changed the
1015 "Folder-Protect:" example in the man page to something more
1016 interesting than a duplication of the default.
1018 * When I added my --enable-masquerade option, you'll note that I
1019 didn't make it --enable-nmh-masquerade. I find the --enable-nmh-*
1020 options too wordy and I'm not sure why Richard went that route.
1021 I've renamed them to just --enable-*, but the old versions will
1022 still work as well (they just aren't advertised).
1024 * Added a line to the "nmh configuration" output saying whether
1027 * Added a new README.developers file. From the file:
1029 This file is intended to provide a few tips for anyone doing
1030 development on nmh. Developers who learn things "the hard
1031 way" about the nmh codebase (as opposed to local info best
1032 encoded in a comment) are encouraged to share their wisdom
1035 Currently the topics are "autoconf files" and "directory structure".
1037 Tue Mar 14 12:41:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1039 * Applied, after some finessing,
1040 Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s --with-smtpservers patch:
1042 Here's a patch that allows you to add
1044 --with-smtpservers=<some.host.name>
1046 to the ./configure command line to set the "servers: " line in
1047 etc/mts.conf. Around here, we use "mailhost" so that all
1048 machines in the current domain just talk to a central machine
1049 and nothing else runs an MTA. Now, I can use
1051 --with-smtpservers=mailhost
1053 instead of having to remember to fix this by hand (and often
1054 forgetting to do so!).
1056 * Inspired by Simon's patch, added an --enable-masquerade option
1057 to configure. It will set the "masquerade:" line of mts.conf.
1058 You may specify a subset of the three types of masquerading, like
1059 --enable-masquerade="draft_from mmailid", or leave off explicit
1060 arguments to enable all three types.
1062 * Alphabetized the --enable and --with options in configure.in and
1063 INSTALL and added documentation of the two new options to the latter.
1065 * Added new dependency for mts.conf: Makefile. If this isn't
1066 done, then when you reconfigure nmh with new values for
1067 --enable-masquerade or --with-smtpservers, you'll fail to get an
1068 updated copy of mts.conf.
1070 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtimep.lex patch:
1072 It seems that some MUA's didn't handle y2k very well - ELM
1073 seems to be one of them, and Ultrix's DXmail (based on MH!).
1074 I've got a few emails this month that look like:
1076 575 Jan 00 Xxxxxx Xxxx 3603 ...
1078 22+ Jan 00 Xxx Xxxxx 1771 ...
1080 The first has "15 Jan 100" as the date and the second has
1081 "19 Jan 00" as the date. The following works around this so
1082 that scan, show, sortm, etc work ok.
1084 I put Simon's patch under the control of a new #define called
1085 FIX_NON_Y2K_COMPLIANT_MUA_DATES. There's some commentary in
1086 acconfig.h about when you might not want to #define it.
1088 * Created new dtimep.c-lexed with Simon's change using dtimep.lex
1089 lexed on Solaris 2.6. Added missing dependency in
1090 zotnet/tws/Makefile.in for dtimep.c: dtimep.c-lexed.
1092 * Added scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD format files.
1094 Mon Mar 13 21:32:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1096 * Applied Sullivan N. Beck <sbeck@cise.ufl.edu>'s mhshow-suffix patch:
1098 With the patch below, you can add lines like:
1100 mhshow-suffix-application/msword: .doc
1101 mhshow-suffix-application/PostScript: .ps
1103 to the mhn.defaults file to append the given suffix to a
1104 scratch file. This allows applications which require a
1105 certain suffix to run properly.
1107 * Removed -force_html from lynx entry in mhn.defaults.sh (I
1108 believe older versions of lynx lack that option) and added
1109 "mhshow-suffix-text/html: .html".
1111 * Modified username_extension masquerading to only use the
1112 extended address on generated [Resent-]From: lines and SMTP
1113 envelope From:. With Neil's original implementation, nmh's global
1114 idea of the username was changed, which would result in inc lying
1115 and saying you had no new mail because it was looking for a
1116 mailbox called, for instance, "dan-nmh" (where username was "dan"
1117 and $USERNAME_EXTENSION was "-nmh").
1119 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtime.c patch:
1121 There's a wrap-around problem that affects the implementation
1122 of Zeller's congruence in dtime.c. This causes the day-of-week
1123 calculations to fail for dates after Feb 29, 2000 (probably up
1124 until some year far in the future).
1126 Mon Mar 06 12:20:20 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1128 * Applied Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s msh.c patch:
1130 I finally tracked down the problem in msh that was causing
1131 errors whenever I tried to examine a 'mmdf' style mailbox.
1133 It turns out that not enough memory was being allocated with
1134 calloc(), causing memory pointers to be overwritten and
1137 Fri Mar 03 16:07:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1139 * Changed the new "plussed_user" option to mts.conf's
1140 "masquerade:" to "username_extension" after getting feedback from
1141 qmail users, who use '-' as a separator rather than '+'. Removed
1142 checking of $USERPLUS variable. Now check $USERNAME_EXTENSION,
1143 which needs to include the appropriate separator for your MTA
1144 ('-', '+', or whatever) as its first character.
1146 Thu Mar 02 23:04:30 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1148 * Added a new "boolean" type to mh.h and TRUE and FALSE constants.
1150 * Added a note to DIFFERENCES stating that it's out-of-date
1151 (Richard was the last one to update it) and that we should
1152 consider only documenting incompatibilities with MH there.
1154 * Implemented (and documented) a third kind of username
1155 masquerading: "plussed user" masquerading. This one was suggested
1156 by Neil Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>. It's based on sendmail's
1157 "plussed user" feature, where mail sent to <user>+<string> will be
1158 delivered to <user>. When it's enabled, it's controlled by the
1159 $USERPLUS environment variable. How is it enabled? Well, that
1162 * Renamed the "mmailid:" setting in mts.conf to "masquerade:", and
1163 changed it so that rather than being a boolean, it can be set to
1164 any combination of the three values "draft_from", "mmailid", and
1165 "plussed_user". Thus it is now possible to enable the three types
1166 of masquerading individually.
1168 * Fixed a bug with "mmailid" masquerading (dating back to MH?)
1169 where if it was turned on, ','s would no longer be considered
1170 GECOS field delimiters.
1172 Wed Mar 01 23:30:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1174 * Changed the GECOS-field '&' translation behavior to be
1175 controlled by the BSD42 #define rather than GCOS_HACK, since it's
1176 apparently always appropriate on OSes where BSD42 is #defined, and
1177 never appropriate on any other OSes. Thanks to Kimmo Suominen for
1178 responding to my "What is this code here for?" comment in mts.c
1179 and explaining the feature.
1181 Mon Feb 28 21:50:29 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1183 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3+dev (ideally this should be
1184 done by whoever makes a release tar file, immediately after doing
1187 * Applied Paul Fox <pgf-spam@foxharp.boston.ma.us>'s scansbr.c
1188 patch, posted to comp.mail.mh, which he says prevents loss of mail
1189 when inc'ing into a full filesystem.
1191 * Changed "echo > stamp-h.in" in Makefile.in to "date > stamp-h.in"
1192 so that stamp-h.in will be different each time configure.in and
1193 related files are changed, making it easier to check it in (which
1194 is necessary to prevent unnecessary autoconf calls).
1196 * My declaration of initgroups() in slocal.c to eliminate the "no
1197 prototype" warning wasn't portable (FreeBSD 3.[23] choked). Now
1198 use AC_EGREP_HEADER to see where initgroups() is declared, if
1201 Sun Feb 20 12:17:15 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1203 * Fix security hole in mhshowsbr.c which allowed untrusted shell
1204 code to be executed.
1206 * Released nmh 1.0.3.
1208 Thu Feb 10 10:54:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1210 * Oops. %-escapes on mhstore lines in mhn.defaults.sh should not
1211 be surrounded by single quotes, as a shell is not spawned when
1212 just saving files, and the filenames will end up with literal
1213 quotes embedded in them.
1215 Fri Feb 04 12:29:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1217 * Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
1218 got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
1219 the -help output. One theory is that they were making reference
1220 to the fact that clearly you know about the -help option since
1221 you're currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea
1222 to overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
1223 supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
1226 The other theory is that because you can say something like
1227 "mhstore -" and get "mhstore: - ambiguous. It matches" followed
1228 by the same list of switches you get with -help, they were saying
1229 you can "sorta" abbreviate "-help" as "-". You don't get the
1230 "Usage:" string, though, so it's not really the same thing.
1232 Thu Feb 03 17:52:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1234 * Applied wesley.craig@umich.edu's KPOP patches. According to him:
1236 The following patch fixes a problem with requesting a
1237 service key for a machine that has multiple 'A' records. It
1238 also makes "-kpop" a command line option, for users who
1239 would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".
1241 Did no testing of the new features, as I don't have access to a
1244 * Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
1246 * Modified INSTALL and config.h.in to reflect the new -kpop feature.
1248 Fri Jan 28 17:39:24 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1250 * All %-escapes in mhn.defaults that actually expand to something
1251 should be surrounded by single quotes. Added quotes to the ones
1252 in mhn.defaults.sh that were missing them.
1254 * Added check for lynx to write mhshow-show-text/html line in
1257 Thu Jan 27 12:22:25 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1259 * makedir() had multiple bugs dating back to MH. An octal
1260 constant was apparently being interpreted as decimal, resulting in
1261 directories with no user read or execute permissions, making
1262 nested directory creation fail. And there wasn't even an
1263 _attempt_ to set desired permissions (e.g. from "Folder-Protect:"
1264 in .mh_profile) on the outer directories of a nested directory.
1266 * A second `make install' would always fail because the check for
1267 whether mh_profile.5 existed was written incorrectly.
1269 Wed Jan 26 02:22:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1271 * Added documentation on both types of masquerading to post's man
1274 Tue Jan 25 22:58:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1276 * Doug's portability fix of my setgid inc autodetection had a
1277 caching bug -- if you re-ran configure, uip/Makefile would be
1278 corrupted, and installation would bomb out on OSes where inc needs
1281 * Implemented a new kind of email address masquerading. Usually,
1282 when a user writes a custom "From:" header in a draft, nmh uses it
1283 rather than generating one. However, the user's true address is
1284 used in the SMTP envelope "From:" and is revealed in the "Sender:"
1285 header. Now, when mmailid is set to non-zero, the envelope
1286 "From:" uses the address specified in the draft "From:" header,
1287 and there is no "Sender:" header. This is useful when sending on
1288 behalf of a remote POP3 account or when remote mail robots
1289 incorrectly use the envelope "From:" in preference to the body
1290 "From:". This processing has only been implemented for post, not
1291 for the undocumented spost (which was already missing some "From:"
1292 processing that post has).
1294 Mon Jan 24 22:26:06 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1296 * Got rid of the rest of the gcc -Wall warnings that I didn't have
1297 time for on 1999-07-15 (and, it would seem, some new ones people
1298 introduced since then). The primary ones were the warnings that
1299 default prototypes were being used for [v]snprintf() and
1300 str[n]casecmp(). As of right now, there are _no_ compilation
1301 warnings except on dtimep.c-lexed (at least under AIX 4.1.5 and
1304 Sun Jan 2 23:42:18 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1306 * Move mhtest from bindir to libdir.
1308 * Move sendfiles from libdir to bindir.
1310 * Updated sendfiles manpage to reflect this change.
1312 * Added documentation for -build and -file switches to repl and
1313 forw manpages (patch from Peter Maydell).
1315 * Fixed interaction between specifying -cc in profile and -group on
1318 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1320 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
1321 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
1322 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
1325 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1327 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
1328 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
1329 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
1330 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
1331 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
1332 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).
1334 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1336 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
1338 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1340 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
1341 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
1342 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
1343 caught again. This works for now.
1345 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
1347 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1349 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
1350 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
1352 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1354 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
1355 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
1357 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
1359 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
1361 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1363 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
1364 changes. Both need more cleanup.
1366 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1368 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
1369 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
1370 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
1371 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
1372 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
1375 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1377 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
1378 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
1379 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
1381 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
1382 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
1385 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1387 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
1388 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
1389 to a directory on another device with more free space.
1391 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1393 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
1394 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
1396 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1398 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
1401 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
1402 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
1404 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
1405 macros, regardless of platform.
1407 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
1408 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1410 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
1411 with x-conversions=gzip.
1413 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1415 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
1418 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
1419 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
1420 implicit definition of ioctl().
1422 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
1423 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
1424 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
1425 want to mess with them.
1427 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1429 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
1430 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
1432 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
1433 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
1435 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
1436 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
1437 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
1439 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
1440 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
1441 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
1443 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
1444 function initgroups.
1446 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
1449 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
1450 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
1453 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
1454 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
1457 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
1458 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
1462 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1464 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
1465 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
1466 preventing compilation on at least linux.
1468 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
1469 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
1471 Thu Sep 09 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1473 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
1475 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
1476 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
1477 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
1478 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
1480 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
1481 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
1483 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1485 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
1487 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1489 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
1490 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
1492 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1494 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
1495 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
1497 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
1498 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
1499 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
1500 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
1502 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
1503 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
1505 Sat Jun 09 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1507 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
1508 substitute it for mktemp if available.
1510 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1512 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
1513 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
1516 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
1518 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
1520 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
1522 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
1523 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
1525 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
1526 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
1527 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
1529 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
1530 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
1531 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
1533 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
1534 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
1535 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1537 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
1538 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
1541 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
1542 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1544 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
1545 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1547 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
1548 <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1550 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
1551 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
1552 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1554 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
1555 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1557 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
1558 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
1559 <elleron@servtech.com>.
1561 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
1562 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
1565 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
1566 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
1568 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
1569 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
1570 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
1571 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
1573 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
1574 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
1576 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1580 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
1581 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
1582 would not be changed.
1584 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
1585 one from the Apache web server.
1587 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
1588 (this should have been done a long time ago).
1590 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
1591 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
1592 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
1594 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
1596 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
1598 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
1599 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
1602 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
1603 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
1604 removes a bad race condition.
1606 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
1609 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
1610 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
1611 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
1613 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
1614 sequence information.
1616 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
1617 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
1619 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
1622 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
1625 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
1627 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
1628 interpret 034 as octal.
1630 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
1632 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
1633 mhstore, and mhbuild.
1635 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
1636 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
1638 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
1639 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
1641 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
1642 in the c_cefile structure when building.
1644 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
1645 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
1647 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
1648 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
1649 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
1651 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
1652 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
1653 and mhshow. Updated man pages
1655 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
1657 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
1659 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
1660 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
1663 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
1665 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
1666 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
1668 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
1669 header field information.
1671 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
1672 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
1674 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
1675 values when parsing a content.
1677 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
1678 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
1680 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
1681 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
1683 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
1684 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1686 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
1687 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
1689 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
1691 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
1693 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
1695 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
1697 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
1698 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
1701 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
1702 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
1704 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
1705 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
1706 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
1707 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
1708 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
1709 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
1712 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1714 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
1715 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
1716 buffer length checks for this parameter.
1718 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
1719 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
1721 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1723 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
1724 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
1725 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
1726 of the limits on the length of command lines.
1728 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
1729 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
1732 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
1733 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
1734 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
1735 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
1738 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1740 * Released nmh-0.27.
1742 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
1743 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
1745 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
1746 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
1747 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
1748 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
1751 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
1752 mhbuild returns an error.
1754 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
1755 rename the draft file.
1757 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
1758 use a global variable.
1760 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
1761 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
1763 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
1764 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
1766 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
1767 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
1768 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
1770 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
1771 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
1773 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
1774 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
1777 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
1778 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
1781 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
1782 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
1784 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
1785 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
1786 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
1788 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
1789 to new function output_content_folder.
1791 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
1792 new function output_content_file.
1794 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
1795 to new function parse_format_string.
1797 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
1798 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
1799 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
1800 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
1802 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
1803 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
1804 message/external file from ftp.
1806 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
1807 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
1808 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
1810 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
1811 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
1814 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
1817 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
1818 new file mhstoresbr.c
1820 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
1823 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
1824 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
1826 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
1827 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
1829 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
1830 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
1831 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
1833 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
1835 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
1837 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
1838 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
1841 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
1842 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
1844 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
1847 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
1849 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1851 * Released nmh-0.26.
1853 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
1854 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
1855 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
1856 is still the same (dashstuffing).
1858 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
1859 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
1860 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
1861 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
1862 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
1864 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
1865 But it is not on by default.
1867 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
1868 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
1870 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
1872 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
1874 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
1876 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
1878 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
1879 number of the "cur" message when packing.
1881 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1883 * Released nmh-0.25.
1885 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
1886 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
1887 uses the original name of the library.
1889 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
1890 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
1893 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
1894 list_content and list_debug.
1896 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
1898 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
1899 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.
1901 1998-02-27 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1903 * Released nmh-0.24.
1905 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
1907 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
1908 are given, that order doesn't matter.
1910 * Fix bug in seq_list.c when realloc'ing for
1911 large sequence line.
1913 1998-02-23 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1915 * Released nmh-0.23.
1917 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
1919 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
1920 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan
1921 content, decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary
1922 string). I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
1924 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
1925 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
1928 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
1930 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
1932 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
1934 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
1935 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
1937 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
1938 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.
1940 * Add note to MACHINES file that on Linux, configure
1941 doesn't find the functions sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
1943 * Fix configuration for machines that don't have (or find)
1944 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
1946 1998-02-11 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1948 * Released nmh-0.22.
1950 * Add a configure check for sigsetjmp. Add some conditional
1951 #define's in h/signals.h in case it's not found.
1953 * Added additional notes about -auto switch in mhn man page.
1955 * Added note about MM_CHARSET environment variable to
1956 mh-profile(5) man page.
1958 * Fix signal problem in mhn.c (change setjmp/longjmp to
1959 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp).
1961 1998-02-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1963 * Released nmh-0.22-pre1.
1965 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
1966 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
1968 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
1970 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
1971 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
1972 entry point for parsing MIME files.
1974 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
1975 source message on the standard input.
1977 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
1979 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
1980 rather than -rfc934mode.
1982 * Fix mhbuild, so that Content-Description and RFC-822 comments
1983 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
1986 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
1987 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).
1989 * Restore HP specific code to zotnet/tws/lexstring.c. Apparently
1992 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1994 * Released nmh-0.21.
1996 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
1997 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.
1999 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what transfer
2002 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what character set
2003 to use for text contents.
2005 * Removed old hpux specific code from zotnet/tws/lexstring.c
2007 1998-02-02 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2009 * Released nmh-0.21-pre2.
2011 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
2013 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
2014 header fields as per RFC-2047.
2016 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
2017 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
2018 spaces between encoded word are.
2020 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
2022 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
2023 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
2025 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
2026 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
2027 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
2029 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
2031 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
2032 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
2034 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.
2036 * Added support for %(decode) to fmtdump.c.
2038 * check_charset() now accepts US-ASCII as a subset of any
2039 ISO-8859-X character set.
2041 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
2044 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
2045 permissions, not write permissions.
2047 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
2048 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
2050 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
2053 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2055 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
2057 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
2058 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
2060 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
2061 message contains valid character set.
2063 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
2064 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
2066 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
2067 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
2069 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
2070 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
2071 between an encoded word and normal text.
2073 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
2074 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
2076 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
2077 as a RFC-2047 header field.
2079 * The command install-mh now recognizes the switches -version
2082 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
2083 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
2086 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
2087 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
2089 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
2090 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
2092 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
2094 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2096 * Released nmh-0.20.
2098 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
2100 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.
2102 * Changed the default format file for mhl (mhl.format) to
2103 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
2104 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
2106 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
2107 and the To: line was missing.
2109 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
2111 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2113 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
2115 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
2116 watch the POP transaction.
2118 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
2119 first, and use it if available.
2121 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
2122 first, and use it if available.
2124 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2126 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
2128 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
2129 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
2130 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
2133 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
2134 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
2135 returns the state FLDPLUS.
2137 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
2138 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
2141 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
2143 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
2144 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
2146 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
2148 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
2149 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
2151 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
2152 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
2153 message to which you are replying.
2155 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
2156 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
2157 making group replies.
2159 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
2161 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2163 * Released nmh-0.19.
2165 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
2166 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
2168 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
2169 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
2170 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
2171 to the end of the man page.
2173 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
2174 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
2175 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
2176 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
2177 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
2178 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
2180 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
2183 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
2184 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
2185 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
2187 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
2188 the next available number above the message number you wish
2191 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
2192 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
2194 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
2195 file sbr/seq_print.c
2197 * flist will now update the current folder.
2199 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
2200 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
2201 but now undocumented.
2203 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
2206 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
2207 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
2209 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
2211 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
2212 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
2214 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2216 * Released nmh-0.18.
2218 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
2219 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
2220 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
2222 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
2223 retains the public/private status of sequences.
2225 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
2226 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
2227 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
2228 previous public/private status.
2230 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
2233 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
2236 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
2237 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
2238 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
2240 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
2241 take option to determine whether it should get current
2242 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
2243 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
2245 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
2247 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
2248 wait for stopped processes.
2250 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
2251 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
2253 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2255 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
2257 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
2258 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
2260 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
2261 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
2263 * Change the way that memory for message status is
2264 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
2265 the folder/message structure. This required changing
2266 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
2268 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
2271 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
2274 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
2276 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
2277 the debugging output.
2279 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
2280 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
2282 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2284 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
2286 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
2287 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
2289 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
2291 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
2292 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
2293 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
2294 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
2295 in the given sequence.
2297 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
2298 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
2299 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
2300 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
2301 subdirectories of a given directory.
2303 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
2304 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
2305 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
2307 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
2308 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
2310 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
2312 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
2315 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
2316 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
2317 fields are now calculated at runtime.
2319 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
2320 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
2321 are calculated at runtime.
2323 Sun Nov 30 19:14:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2325 * Released nmh-0.18-pre2.
2327 * Add paragraph to man page for install-mh and to INSTALL file
2328 about checking for global mh.profile.
2330 * Renamed m_find() to context_find().
2331 Renamed m_replace() to context_replace().
2332 Renamed m_delete() to context_del().
2333 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
2334 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
2335 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
2337 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
2338 adding message to folder itself.
2340 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
2341 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
2342 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
2345 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
2346 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
2349 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
2350 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
2351 is the same as the direct smtp code).
2353 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
2354 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
2356 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
2357 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
2358 code to use it yet).
2360 Thu Nov 13 18:42:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2362 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.
2364 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never
2365 called with a value larger than 30 mintues.
2367 * Fixed race condition in rmm and refile, so that
2368 context is updated before external rmmproc is called.
2370 * Removed all the OVERHEAD code.
2372 * Move code to add message to folder from refile.c
2375 Fri Jul 25 19:39:29 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2377 * Did some rearranging of the internals of inc.c.

2381 * Changed --enable-smtp to --with-mts={smtp,sendmail}
2383 * Created new directory mts/sendmail for direct sendmail
2384 interface (although it currently still uses SMTP).

2388 * Removed all the TTYD (terminal access daemon) code
2390 * Removed all the MF (uucp filtering) code.
2392 * Removed all the code for BERK.
2394 * Removed all the code for stand-alone delivery (MHMTS).
2396 * Split the file mts/sendmail/smail.c into sendmail.c and
2397 smtp.c. Changed the name of the directory to mts/smtp.
2399 * Changed autoconf to use @sysconfdir@ for location of
2400 configuration files.
2402 * Changed #define in mhn.c from FTP to BUILTIN_FTP.

2408 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
2410 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
2411 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
2413 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
2416 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
2417 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
2419 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
2420 number of refiled message.
2422 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
2424 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
2425 for return value of wait().
2427 * Change configure to also check /bin for "more".
2429 Sat Jul 12 00:02:23 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2431 * Released nmh-0.16.
2433 Mon Jun 23 20:13:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2435 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
2437 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
2438 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
2439 deal with binary messages, yet).
2441 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
2443 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
2445 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
2446 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
2447 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
2448 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
2449 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
2450 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
2452 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
2453 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
2455 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
2456 From MH-6.8.4 patch.
2458 * Fix double free of ctinfo in user_content when using
2459 #forw with single message. From John MacMillan (and
2462 * Changed -mhnproc switch for show, to -showmimeproc.
2464 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".
2466 * Added "mime" option to "whatnow", which calls the program
2467 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
2470 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
2473 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
2475 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
2476 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
2477 which used unsigned chars by default.
2479 Sat Jun 21 01:21:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2481 * Released nmh-0.15.
2483 * Added new form "scan.unseen" to distribution. It marks messages

2488 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
2490 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
2493 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
2494 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
2495 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
2497 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
2498 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
2500 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
2502 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
2503 they conflict with defines on AIX.
2505 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
2506 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
2507 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
2508 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
2510 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
2511 and put in own subroutine.
2513 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
2514 and put in own subroutine.
2516 * Moved code to remove messages from folder into own
2517 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and
2518 refile.c to use new routine.
2520 Fri May 16 06:09:31 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2522 * Renamed m_seqok to seq_nameok.
2524 * Changed m_setunseen, msh, mshcmds, flist, and scan to use
2527 * Changed m_seqflag to return the number of a sequence rather
2528 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
2529 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
2531 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
2534 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before
2535 adding message to sequence.
2537 * Renamed function m_setvis to m_setunseen, and renamed
2538 corresponding file in sbr.
2540 * Renamed function m_setseq to m_setprev, and renamed corresponding
2543 * Changed mark.c and pick.c to use m_seqaddsel and m_seqdelsel.
2545 * Added new function m_seqdelsel to m_seqdel.c, which deletes
2546 all selected messages from a sequence.
2548 * Added new function m_seqaddsel to m_seqadd.c, which adds all
2549 selected messages to a sequence.
2551 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,
2554 Thu May 15 00:53:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2556 * Renamed function pack_folder to m_packfolder, and moved it
2557 from uip/folder.c into its own file sbr/m_packfolder.c
2559 Wed May 14 23:38:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2561 * Changed function m_gmsg to m_readfolder. Renamed file

2578 * Added new options `-checkmime', `-nocheckmime', and `-mhnproc'
2579 to show. Restructured code to handle options to various
2580 `procs' better. Deprecated `-noshowproc' option and NOMHNPROC
2581 environment variable.
2583 * Added new man page `mh-draft' which documents the
2584 draft folder facility in nmh.
2586 * Renamed fmtsbr.h to fmt_scan.h. Renamed fmtcompile.h

2598 * Released nmh-0.13.
2600 * Changed mhpath so it doesn't abort if a message sequence
2601 such as "mhpath all" expands to more than 1000 messages.
2602 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
2603 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
2606 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
2607 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
2609 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2611 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if
2612 necessary. So `folders' can now handle more than 300 folders.
2614 Tue Apr 22 14:01:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2616 * Change configure to use a compile check to see if the tm struct
2617 has tm_gmtoff, rather than using egrep.

2633 mp->attrstats with macros.
2635 * If system doesn't have SIGEMT (like Linux), then use SIGTERM
2638 * Change fstat to stat in m_gmsg.c since Linux wants
2641 * Merge Linux patch sent in by Michel Oosterhof (original
2642 patch from bsa@kf8nh.wariat.org).
2644 * Document an undocumented MH feature. mhn -form mhl.null
2645 will suppress the display of the message header.
2647 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
2649 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c
2650 and mshcmds.c, rather than hard coding in /bin/cat.
2652 * Add mhnproc to the list of `procs' in mh-profile.man.
2654 * Add configure test for lorder and tsort commands.
2656 * Commented out the padding in the `msgs` struct in h/mh.h
2658 * Change m_gmsg.c to allocate elements to the `info' array by
2659 500 elements at a time (rather than MAXFOLDERS / 5).
2661 * Add note to man page for mhmail that zero length messages are
2662 not sent. Need to use -body "" to send empty messages.
2664 * zotnet/mts/mts.c : compare character with '\0', not NULL.
2666 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
2668 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
2669 folder/message structure when done with folder.
2671 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is
2672 defined even if message is missing "From " line.
2674 Mon Mar 31 03:37:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2676 * Released nmh-0.10.
2678 Sun Mar 30 21:46:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

2683 Thu Mar 20 03:21:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2685 * Reversed previous decision to retain "From " lines in slocal.
2686 The "From " line is now removed from all messages.
2688 * inc now saves the date from the "From " envelope in the
2689 Delivery-Date header for all messages.
2691 * sbr/m_getfld.c: Clean up processing of Return-Path and
2692 Delivery-Date from the "From " envelope.
2694 Mon Mar 17 19:03:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2696 * client.c: cast iaddr to int before comparing return value
2697 of inet_addr with NOTOK.
2699 Tue Mar 11 04:38:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2701 * Grep test for signal names was failing on some OS'es because

2722 Tue Mar 4 03:10:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2724 * ruserpass.c : removed conflicting prototypes.
2726 * rcvtty.c : Fixed rcvtty to obey terminal permissions granted
2727 by `mesg' command. Previously only worked on BSD machines.
2729 Mon Mar 3 00:18:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2731 * rcvtty.c : Changed to use #define UTMP_FILE (if exists) rather
2732 than hard coded "/etc/utmp".
2734 * Released nmh-0.08.
2736 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
2737 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of
2738 locking database itself.

2742 * Added slocal action `mmdf' to deliver to a file in mmdf format.
2744 * Changed the slocal actions `file' and `>' to always deliver in
2745 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
2748 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
2749 rather than mmdf format.
2751 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
2752 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
2753 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
2754 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
2756 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
2758 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2760 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
2763 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2764 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2765 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
2767 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2768 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2769 rcvpack so you can choose the preferred format.
2771 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2773 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
2774 can still easily change this in config.h).
2776 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
2777 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
2778 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
2780 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2782 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather
2783 than tzset and external timezone variable.

2794 Tue Feb 11 01:29:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2796 * Add check to configure, so that if ruserpass, or _ruserpass
2797 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
2799 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
2800 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
2803 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
2804 built-in FTP client in mhn.
2806 * Added configure check for ushort and ulong. Change code
2807 to use ushort/ulong rather than u_short/u_long.
2809 * A couple of small cleanups in locking code.
2811 * Added configure check for gmtoff element in struct tm.
2813 * Added configure check for tzset.
2815 Fri Feb 7 03:01:57 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2817 * Released nmh-0.06.
2819 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
2820 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
2822 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
2823 many such machines around anymore.
2825 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
2826 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
2828 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
2829 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
2831 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2833 * Check lex generated file in zotnet/tws and use
2834 pre-generated version if necessary.
2836 * Released nmh-0.05.
2838 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
2839 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
2840 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
2841 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
2843 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
2844 be linked in one pass.
2846 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2848 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
2849 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
2851 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2853 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
2855 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2857 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
2858 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
2859 become the current folder.
2861 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2863 * Released nmh-0.04.
2865 * Define ospeed and PC in termsbr.c is OS doesn't have
2868 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2870 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
2871 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
2872 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
2874 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2876 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
2877 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
2879 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2881 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
2882 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
2885 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
2886 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
2888 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2890 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
2891 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
2892 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
2893 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
2894 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
2895 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
2897 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2899 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
2900 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
2902 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
2903 a file (currently need to specify full path).
2905 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2907 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
2908 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
2910 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2912 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
2913 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
2914 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
2916 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2918 * Released nmh-0.03.
2920 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
2921 .mh_sequence file existed.
2923 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
2924 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
2926 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
2927 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
2930 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2932 * Changed flist option -unseen to -[no]all. Cleaned up
2935 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2937 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
2938 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
2939 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
2941 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2943 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
2944 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
2945 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
2947 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2949 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL
2950 and allocate its own buffer. Borrowed from zsh.
2952 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
2954 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2956 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
2957 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
2958 directory from where the source code is located.
2960 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2962 * Released nmh-0.02.
2964 Wed Jan 1 17:41:52 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2966 * Split mhook man page into man pages for rcvdist, rcvpack,
2969 Tue Dec 31 03:07:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2971 * Changed code to use strerror, rather than using sys_errlist
2972 and sys_nerr directly.
2974 Mon Dec 30 02:15:25 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2976 * -compat switch from install-mh removed.
2978 * Changed the default POP port from "pop" to "pop3".
2980 Sat Dec 28 13:25:05 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2982 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
2983 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
2984 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
2985 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
2986 rather than in script.
2988 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2990 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
2992 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with
2993 macro defined on Solaris.
2995 Thu Dec 26 02:50:15 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2997 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
2998 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
3000 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
3001 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
3002 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
3003 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
3006 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3008 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
3009 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.
3011 * Fixed configure test so that termcap variable ospeed is
3014 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3016 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
3018 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included
3019 in mhn.c. Changed md5 to use memset and memcpy.
3021 Fri Dec 20 02:29:37 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3023 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
3024 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
3026 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3028 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
3029 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
3030 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
3031 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
3032 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
3033 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
3035 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3037 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
3039 * Released nmh-0.01.
3041 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
3042 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
3043 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
3046 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3048 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
3051 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3053 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
3054 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
3056 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3058 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
3059 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
3060 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
3061 script to find_program.
3063 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3065 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
3066 speed up -recurse option.
3068 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
3069 yet, but it compiles :-)
3071 * Changed default location for install to
3072 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
3073 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
3074 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
3077 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
3078 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
3079 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
