1 2006-02-20 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
3 * man/mhbuild.man: wrapped one appearance of "Content-Disposition"
4 with quotes, to be consistent with others.
6 2006-02-20 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
8 * h/utils.h, sbr/utils.c, uip/flist.c, uip/folder.c: Move duplicate
9 function num_digits into utils.c
11 2006-02-19 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
13 * sbr/m_draft.c, sbr/utils.c, uip/folder.c, uip/inc.c,
14 uip/mhstoresbr.c, uip/popi.c, uip/refile.c: Add create_folder()
15 function, replacing duplicate code during folder creation.
17 2006-02-18 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
19 * h/mime.h, h/mhparse.h, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, uip/mhfree.c,
20 man/mhbuild.man, docs/TODO: added support for an optional
21 Content-Disposition header in mhbuild (only). Its contents
22 are supplied between {}, positioned after the optional [], in
23 a mhbuild directive. If the contents do not contain a
24 "filename=" parameter, and the directive has a filename, or
25 something else that ends with "name=", then that will be used
26 to add a "filename=" parameter to the header.
28 2006-02-12 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
30 * docs/TODO: added RFC2183 to reference of RFC1806 for
31 Content-Disposition header.
33 2006-01-31 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
35 * uip/mhbuild.c, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, man/mhbuild.man: added
36 -nocontentid switch, to disable generation of Content-ID:
37 header in MIME messages. (Also added -contentid for
38 symmetry.) The default configuration of Microsoft Outlook,
39 Build 10.0.3416 in particular, doesn't see attachments in
40 incoming messages if there are Content-ID headers, see
41 http://home.cwru.edu/~wrv/eudoraoutlookfix.html. This allows
42 users to easily accomodate that by adding
43 mhbuild: -nocontentid to their .mh_profile.
45 2006-01-29 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
47 * bug 4360: uip/replsbr.c: remove trailing newlines from components
48 to fix bug with spaces at the end of Subject/References in replies
50 2006-01-18 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
52 * configure.in: use AS_HELP_STRING for formatting help messages
54 * configure.in, sbr/fmt_scan.c: add autoconf magic to support
55 old systems that don't support multibyte character sets
57 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: fix bug with insertion of newline being wrong if
58 the num function was used at the end of the format buffer
60 2006-01-17 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
62 * uip/post.c, uip/spost.c: in make_bcc_file (), use same
63 logic as in finish_headers () to detect whether there is an
64 existing From: line in the draft. If draft_from masquerade
65 flag is enabled, this allows the From: to be obeyed in the
66 Bcc, instead of the old behavior of always replacing it with
69 2006-01-17 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
71 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: more robust multi-byte/column support for field
72 widths, restoring right justification feature
74 2006-01-16 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
76 * h/aliasbr.h, h/rcvmail.h, man/Makefile.in, man/slocal.man,
77 sbr/lock_file.c, uip/aliasbr.c, uip/dropsbr.c, uip/post.c,
78 uip/slocal.c, man/mh-mts.man: remove remnants of code for MMDF
80 * uip/scansbr.c: multiply buffer size by MB_CUR_MAX so multi-byte
83 2006-01-14 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
85 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: Turn the PUTSF macro into a function capable of
86 handling multi column characters.
88 2006-01-07 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
90 * Remove sbr/strerror.c -- strerror(3) is defined in C89.
92 2006-01-06 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
94 * patch #3968: Move the add() function from its own file (add.c) and
95 into utils.c. There was also a duplicate add() function in mf.c which
98 2006-01-02 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
100 * Remove sbr/pwd.c file, moving the pwd() function into sbr/utils.c.
102 2006-01-01 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
104 * patch #3967: Create a mh_xrealloc function to prevent mistakes when
107 2006-01-01 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
109 * patch #3966: Create a mh_xmalloc function to prevent mistakes when
112 2005-12-24 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
114 * Bug #15285: Don't use $< in target rules in makefiles, as POSIX
115 says it's only defined in inference rules. (BSD make was expanding
116 $< to the empty string in the rule for building sbr/dtimep.c, which
117 causes lex to apparently hang because it's reading from stdin.)
119 2005-12-24 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
121 * Completely redo db library checking -- we now check for working
122 (include file, library) pairs rather than checking for headers and
123 libraries separately. We also now provide --with-ndbm=lib and
124 --with-ndbmheader=header options to configure to handle situations
125 where configure's autodetection fails.
127 2005-12-21 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
129 * Fix stupid accidental dependence on a bash quirk in previous
130 configure script change.
132 2005-12-15 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
134 * Improve checking for Berkeley db libraries: configure should now
135 find a suitable library on systems with new gdbm where
136 compatibility functions are in the gdbm_compat library, and on
139 2005-12-13 Michael Forrest <mef@computer.org>
141 * Fedora Bug #163760: sbr/context_read.c (context_read): Ensure that
142 the context is only read once.
144 2005-12-12 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
146 * uip/sendsbr.c (annoaux): Fix the call to annotate() fixing a bug
147 which prevented repl from properly annotating messages.
149 2005-12-07 Jon Steinhart <nmh@fourwinds.com>
151 * Fixed a bug where anno -append put the headers in the wrong place
152 if applied to a message that didn't contain any headers.
154 * Added a special value of "all" to the -number option that causes
155 anno -delete to delete all matching components instead of just
158 * Added new -preserve and -nopreserve options. Using -preserve
159 retains the original last accessed and last modified times on
162 2005-12-05 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
164 * Fedora Bug #174983: configure.in: Fix the AC_PATH_PROG default when
165 vi isn't found during build.
167 2005-11-19 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
169 * bug #14977: sbr/context_read.c: special case an MHCONTEXT of
170 "/dev/null" and don't try to lock it.
172 * bug #9228, debian bug #146449: man/mh-profile.man: make it clearer
173 that lower case environment variables (and in particular mheditor)
174 are internal to nmh and not intended to be set by the user.
176 2005-11-09 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
178 * sbr/mf.c: fix buffer overrun with absurdly long addresses
179 (only causes crashes if scan is run with '-width 16536' or similar)
181 * bug #7917: sbr/context_foil.c, sbr/context_read.c,
182 sbr/context_save.c: mark 'no context' with NULL rather than
183 "/dev/null" so we don't inadvertently try to lock /dev/null (which
184 takes up to a minute in some locking configurations and makes post
187 * patch #3913: uip/post.c: pass some globals into sm_init() so that
188 it uses SASL if necessary. (This bug was preventing Bcc'd emails
189 from being sent via SASL authenticated SMTP.)
191 * bug #9813: uip/rmf.c: don't crash if there's no Current-Folder
192 entry in the context file.
194 2005-11-13 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
196 * bug #7833: uip/Makefile.in: remove link to install-mh that caused
197 problems on some systems
199 * bug #739: Makefile.in: install target now depends on all to avoid
200 problem on case-insensitive file systems with the INSTALL file
202 2005-11-10 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
204 * Fedora Bug #172838: configure.in: Fix the AC_PATH_PROG default when
205 sendmail isn't found during build.
207 2005-11-09 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
209 * h/aliasbr.h: fix a non-ANSI prototype.
211 2005-11-08 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
213 * Simon Burge: acconfig.h, configure.in, uip/rcvtty.c, uip/slocal.c:
214 fix to handle getutent() on NetBSD
216 * INSTALL, README, docs/README.about, man/nmh.man: update most
217 references to the web page and mailing list locations
219 * bug #10230: etc/Makefile.in, man/Makefile.in, uip/Makefile.in:
220 Michael De La Rue: prepend DESTDIR to install locations
222 * configure.in, */Makefile.in, mts/smtp/smtp.c: replace obsolete
225 2005-11-06 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
227 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, sbr/fmt_scan.c, h/prototypes.h: fix various
228 possible overruns of the buffers in fmt_scan() which would cause
229 crashes if scan was run with '-width 16536' or similar.
231 * uip/popsbr.c: fix compile error which only showed up if nmh
232 was configured with --enable-apop.
234 * Debian Bug# 245932, RedHat Bug# 172388: uip/mhparse.c: don't
235 crash when handling a multipart MIME message with an invalid
236 Content-Type header (file handle was being fclose()d twice).
238 * sbr/Makefile.in: adjust lex command to work on both old and
239 new versions of flex.
241 * configure.in: add an AC_PREREQ() so autoconf 2.13 gives a helpful
242 error message and the Debian autoconf-version-guessing wrapper
243 doesn't guess wrongly.
245 2005-11-02 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
247 * Debian Bug# 320069: Nick Rusnov: uip/popsbr.c: fail when
248 kpop connection attempted without KPOP support compiled in
250 * Debian Bug# 320090: Nick Rusnov: sbr/Makefile.in: fix for newer
251 version of flex and remove autogenerated file from cvs
253 * patch #1155: uip/flist.c: speed up flist by skipping stat on
254 files with numbers as names
256 * docs/Makefile.in: include new files in distribution
258 2005-10-11 Bill Wohler <wohler@newt.com>
260 * docs/FAQ: fold questions into MH FAQ and distribute that instead
262 2005-10-05 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
264 * Harald Geyer: h/mh.h, uip/replsbr.c: back out previous change
265 (fork/vfork) and replace with code that handles the issue directly
267 2005-05-18 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
269 * Debian Bug# 143485: Nick Rusnov: h/mh.h: use fork instead of
272 * Debian Bug# 261592: Harald Geyer: uip/mhlsbr.c, uip/replsbr.c:
273 test/report error writing to stdout
275 * mts/smtp/smtp.c, uip/popsbr.c: correct SASL include file locations
277 * docs/COMPLETION-BASH: bash completion definitions from Debian
279 * patch #2863: savannah@brisammon.fastmail.fm: sbr/folder_read.c:
280 fix a bug affecting AFS where nmh was setting the READONLY flag
281 for a folder even when you do have write access to the folder
283 * Carl Mummert: h/fmt_compile.h, man/mh-format.man,
284 sbr/fmt_compile.c, sbr/fmt_scan.c: add unquote() function for
285 removing quotes from RFC-2822 encoded headers
287 2005-02-23 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
289 * use iconv to convert RFC-2047 encoded headers to the
290 character set used by the current locale
292 * sbr/folder_read.c fix Debian bug #202667: crash when a
293 message's filename overflows an int when converted
295 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
296 versions (from automake 1.9.5)
298 2005-02-21 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
300 * sbr/getpass.c fix bug where inc crashed on failing to reopen
303 2005-01-27 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
305 * Added -proxy option to inc and msgchk. Based on old patch
306 from Michael Richardson.
308 * On systems where it is available, use nl_langinfo to get the
309 character set if MM_CHARSET is unset
311 2005-01-21 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
313 * sbr/check_charset.c US-ASCII is a subset of UTF-8 so can be
314 handled directly when UTF-8 is being used
316 2004-12-17 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
318 * uip/mhmisc.c Fix -part option to mhshow/mhlist/mhstore to
319 find sub-parts of the specified part
321 2004-11-19 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
323 * h/prototypes.h, sbr/folder_addmsg.c, uip/mhstoresbr.c,
324 uip/rcvstore.c, uip/refile.c: Added mail directory argument to
325 folder_addmsg in order to make it possible to provide a path to
326 the ext_hook call that is mailpath-based. A problem existed when
327 a folder was a symbolic link and the pwd call would return the
328 path relative to the filesystem, not to mailpath. A new argument
329 was needed because there was otherwise no reasonable way to get
332 2004-11-16 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
334 * sbr/folder_pack.c: Fixed problem where the refile hook was being
335 called after a message was renamed so that it wasn't around for
336 the hook. The hook is now called before the message file is
339 * sbr/folder_addmsg.c: Fixed wrong directory for hook when
340 refiling with -src option.
342 2004-10-15 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
344 * uip/sortm.c: Fixed calling of external hooks.
346 2004-10-12 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
348 * uip/inc.c: Fixed another weird bug caused by the static
349 mailpath being overwritten.
351 * uip/sendsbr.c: Fixed bug that caused anno to mangle headers.
353 * sbr/lock_file.c: Fixed strange bug that prevented a lock from
354 ever being obtained if getting it failed the first time. The
355 problem was that the string of XXXXXX that is required by
356 mkstemp() was overwritten the first time through, and so all
357 subsequent times failed because mkstemp() failed. The fix
358 reinitializes the tmp file string.
360 * uip/inc.c: Fixed bug in which the static maildir was overwritted
361 if a format string was read from the profile.
363 * sbr/folder_delmsgs.c: Fixed bug that was producing an incorrect
364 path for the external hook.
366 2003-10-06 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
368 * uip/slocal.c, configure.in: db configuration fix for Debian; yet
369 another location for ndbm.
371 2003-09-30 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
373 * Fix 'pick' so handling of options "-list" and "-seq" are
375 * Fix 'inc' realloc error when bringing in more than 100 msgs
377 * Patches submitted by Nick Rusnov from Debian archive applied:
380 136976 - Handle binary content messages
381 143427 - mh-format.man typo
382 144098 - 'spost; should have same behavior as 'post'
383 w.r.t. mts.conf masquerade line
384 149745 - slocal ignores 'N' result of previous command
385 152728 - increase SMTP timeouts to conform to RFC 1123
386 The timeouts suggested by the RFC seem long
387 to me - but the RFC is still listed as active.
388 181867 - typo for nmh.man
390 2003-08-10 Jeffrey C Honig <jch@honig.net>
392 * Fix problem where parsing of address/date fields in fmt_compile
393 is optimized to the first instance. The first instance may be in
394 contitional code which will result in cached data to
395 be used. Instead, convert c_flags to a flags field from a boolean
396 and parse on the first use.
397 * Remove some unused flag bits.
399 Fri Jul 01 22:02:00 2003 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
401 * Applied fixes for configuration problems with Solaris and
402 systems with gdbm instead of db1 (includes bug #2024)
404 #578 - repl leaks umask
405 #1393 - sortm core dumps
406 #1650 - msh leaks file descriptors
407 #1730 - Double free() in mhfree.c:free_encoding()
408 #3356 - In-Reply-To header in default replcomps should be
410 * Revised man page for mh-format (bug #2031)
411 * New replcomps, etc, with Fcc: +outbox in default versions
413 Sat Mar 17 03:18:15 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
415 * Ken Hornstein's configure.in Cyrus SASL checks were doing
416 `x"$with_cyrus_sasl" != "no"' instead of `... != x"no"'.
418 Tue Mar 06 21:04:27 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
420 * Found some historical information about MH in RFC 808.
421 Supplemented it with info from Jerry Peek's MH book and added it
422 to docs/README.about.
424 Tue Feb 6 20:35:40 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
426 * sbr/dtime.c Use the same Y2K correction code as dtimep.lex
428 * sbr/dtimep.lex Restrict the parser to accept either
429 a numerical timezone offset, or a symbolic one (e.g. EST),
430 but not both (Since "2000 -400 EDT" might cause a double
431 subtraction of 60 minutes if both are parsed. One should be
434 Mon Feb 05 20:22:54 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
436 * -L isn't sufficient for specifying the path of the Cyrus SASL
437 shared library. That'll allow us to link successfully, but on
438 many/most OSes that won't allow us to find libsasl at runtime. On
439 Solaris, we need to specify the library path with -R as well (or
440 else the user will have to use the $LD_LIBRARY_PATH kludge, which
441 is considered harmful). This fix should be extended to other OSes
444 * Print whether we have SASL support in the "nmh configuration"
445 summary configure prints out.
447 * Say in README.developers to use `\date' in case anyone is like
448 me and has `date' aliased in their shell to use a nonstandard (but
449 subjectively more readable) format.
451 Thu Jan 25 21:15:52 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
453 * man/mh-chart.man has updated synposes of
456 Tue Jan 23 20:26:15 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
458 * etc/digestcomps tried to force dates into a
459 19xx when it's not necessary.
461 Fri Jan 19 21:22:08 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
463 * First round of manpage updates finished. They
464 are standardized on -man macros, with minimal
467 * man/tmac.h.in is no longer needed, since the
468 manpages do not depend on them anymore. Note:
469 strict "man" programs that didn't allow ".so"
470 sourcing outside the man tree will now format
471 the man pages correctly.
473 * man/vmh.1 is no longer built, since uip/vmh isn't
475 Tue Jan 9 6:01:22 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
477 * Finished manpages ali-prev
479 * Removed deprecated files from the repository.
480 Specifically, those rooted in zotnet/ and mts/sendmail
481 mts/mmdf. "cvs update -dP" will give a pruned directory
484 * Updated docs/Makefile.in to include README.manpages, and
485 uip/Makefile.in to include popi.c (which isn't being built,
486 though). This allows "make nmhdist" to create an archive that
487 is file-for-file identical to the current cvs repository.
489 Sun Dec 31 20:48:50 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
491 * Create docs/README.manpages, which details
492 the formatting rules I've been using.
496 Sat Dec 30 9:50:13 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
498 * Created a new file "DATE" to hold the date
499 of the most recent nmh release. This date will be
500 used in the manpages.
502 * Updated docs/README.developers to add the step
503 of updating DATE. Also, updated configure to
504 read in the contents of the file as the variable
507 * Started work on updating man pages, with only
508 ali finished so far. Changes: 1) no dependence
509 on an external macro file, 2) uses only
510 -man macros (although I may be mistaken in this),
511 3) syntax in the SYNOPSIS is a little more
512 in line with standard UNIX documentation, such as
513 bold flags and italicized parameters.
515 Sun Dec 24 10:06:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
517 * Updated INSTALL with information about the
518 --with-locking option.
520 * Fixed the Hesiod tests in configure.in. In
521 systems where res_send was in -lresolv, this
522 information was not being communicated to the
523 HESIOD_LIBS var. Now, if res_send is not found
524 in the default libraries, it's assumed to be
525 in -lresolv, and thus -lresolv is appended to
526 HESIOD_LIBS, which will need that to avoid
527 undefined symbols problems.
529 * Fixed the Kerberos tests in configure.in. New
530 versions of Kerberos 5 have renamed -lcrypto
531 to -lk5crypto (circa krb5 1.1 or thereabouts). The
532 new test tries to determine if -lk5crypto exists. If so,
533 this is a new krb5 system. If not, test for -lcrypto
534 and the rest of old krb5. If that fails, look
535 for a genuine krb4 installation.
537 Fri Dec 22 22:08:51 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
539 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in msgchk.man.
540 -snoop was documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
542 Fri Dec 22 23:42:16 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
544 * Made a new ./configure option called
545 "--with-locking" that allows the file
546 locking mechanism to be chosen there instead of
547 requiring a manual edit of config.h.
549 * If the option is not explicitly set, or an
550 invalid option is specified, "dot" locking is
551 chosen. Valid options are "dot", "fcntl",
552 "flock", and "lockf". We need a way to tell
553 the user that these are the valid options, and
554 change the flag "--with-locking" if it's not
557 Fri Dec 22 19:21:29 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
559 * Remove the lex-specific memory hints at the
560 beginning of sbr/dtimep.lex. We've already
561 committed to supporting flex only, since
562 lex does not easily allow us to parse a single
563 string, as well as other problems documented
564 below and on nmh-workers.
566 * Added a switch statement to configure.in to
567 test for Mac OS X. If this is the case, LDFLAGS
568 should not contain "-s" since the linker rejects
571 * Updated MACHINES to include Mac OS X Public Beta,
572 as well as Linux 2.4 running glibc 2.2.
574 Wed Dec 20 16:00:46 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
576 * Marked deprecated directories in docs/README.developers
577 as deprecated, with pointers to the new code location.
578 Eventually these deprecated directories should go away.
580 Tue Dec 19 19:16:37 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
582 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in inc.man. -snoop was
583 documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
585 Thu Dec 14 14:32:09 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
587 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
588 versions on ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/config, dated
589 12-07-00. This should prevent configure from failing
590 on newer operating systems because config.{guess,sub}
591 couldn't correctly identify them.
593 Thu Dec 14 1:30:44 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
595 * Fixed the circular dependency created when I moved
596 zotnet/mts to mts/generic and merged them into libmts.
597 mts/generic/client.c and mts/generic/mts.c are now in sbr/
598 (and thus in libmh), which makes libmh self-contained and
599 not depending on an external archive.
601 * All include statements now look for mts.h in h/. The
602 Makefiles and configure script have been modified so that
603 mts/generic is no longer built.
605 Mon Dec 11 22:08:07 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
607 * When Shantonu made the new libmts.a, he swapped $(MTSLIB) and
608 libmh.a in sbr/Makefile.in so that libmh.a comes first, but this
609 causes the build to fail on Solaris, because libmts.a has to get
610 ruserpass() out of libmh.a. Swapping them back to the way Ken
611 Hornstein's patch (which I applied on Jul 20) put them, with
612 libmh.a correctly coming second. If there are times when libmts.a
613 needs to come second, then it would appear there's a circular
614 dependency and someone (Shantonu?) did an mts merge incorrectly.
616 Fri Sep 8 01:36:23 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
618 * Took out bad time textual time zones like BST and JST.
619 I found them online somewhere, but am not sure if they're
622 Fri Sep 8 00:36:48 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
624 * Moved zotnet/mts to mts/generic. This code reorganization
625 makes the entire zotnet tree deprecated -- bboards is unneeded,
626 mf was was moved to sbr, tws was rewritten and moved to sbr, and
629 * Created a new static library called libmts.a used during
630 compilation which includes the generic mts code and the
631 smtp/sendmail code. This supercedes the functionality of the
632 old libsmtp.a and the remains of libzot.a.
634 * Updated header includes to reference the new location of mts.h
635 in mts/generic/mts.h. Also, update the configure and top-level
636 Makefile not to descend into zotnet. Also, they don't descend
637 into mts/mmdf and mts/sendmail (the sendmail code has been
638 merged into the smtp code).
640 * Added #include <h/nmh.h> to h/md5.h, since my compile was
641 complaining about implicitly-declared memcpy and memset, which
642 appear to be in strings.h. In any event, nmh.h should take care
645 * When doing a "make nmhdist", notice that the generated
646 snapshot does not include zotnet of the mts directories as noted
647 above. Since they are no longer compiled, and I don't see any
648 obvious code path to get to them, end-users should probably
649 not need them. If you think otherwise, turn Makefile generation
650 back on in configure.in and turn on recursion into those dirs
651 in the appropriate Makefile.in
653 Wed Sep 6 22:40:03 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
655 * Tracked down the problem in the new dtimep where time
656 zones were being radically misreported. It was because the
657 parser knew about military time zones (such as M or E) but in
658 some cases did not know about the textual representation of
659 some zones (like MET). When it encountered one of these, the
660 date parser misread MET as the military time zone T (well, first
661 zone M, then E, and finally T). I took military zones out, and
662 things seem much better. Also, the default behavior of parsing
663 time zones appears to default to GMT in the absence of better
664 info, which is less bogus than assuming the mail came from the
665 current time zone, which was the behavior in 1.04.
667 Thu Aug 10 13:22:13 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
669 * Decided that limiting the message number columns to 3 on my
670 scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD (to try to regain space taken by
671 extra date info) was ill-conceived. It's not that tough to get
672 past 999 messages, though I imagine it's rather rare to exceed
673 9999. Changed these to 4. Also put the "replied / encrypted"
674 column back in YYYYMMDD -- I've never seen it show anything but a
675 space, but that space is useful if you use scan, grep, and awk
676 (with the default field separator) to grab message numbers (I know
677 -- pick should really be used for these purposes...).
679 Mon Aug 7 20:11:09 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
681 * Modify umask set by mhshow to enable user execute bit, so that
682 viewers that create temporary directories (e.g., lynx) will be
685 Thu Aug 03 17:14:08 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
687 * TODO: Allow multiple simultaneous differing contexts, probably
688 each tied to a parent (terminal) process.
690 Tue Aug 1 10:48:05 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
692 * Makefile install rules should not look for generated files in
693 the source tree -- this will happen to work when configuring and
694 building inside the source tree but will fail when using an
695 external build tree. Fixed etc/Makefile.in.
697 Mon Jul 24 16:20:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
699 * When Shantonu wrote the new, more portable dtimep.lex, he left
700 out the #ifdef DSTXXX stuff for some reason. Not a good idea, as
701 that code is required for proper printing of numeric-offset
702 timezones that have daylight saving time. Without that code,
703 -0700 during DST gets printed as MST instead of PDT.
705 * Renamed DSTXXX as ADJUST_NUMERIC_ONLY_TZ_OFFSETS_WRT_DST and
706 added an explanatory comment by its #definition.
708 * Updated README.developers with the fact that zotnet/tws is going away.
710 Thu Jul 20 20:30:52 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
712 * Moved Kimmo's new "--with-hash-backup" to be output with the
713 rest of the --with options in the configure --help output. Also,
714 people did not preserve my alphabetization of the --with options
715 when they added new ones. Re-alphabetized.
717 * One more pass at README.developers now that it's clear that my
718 previously-suggested one-line autoconf-file commit can cause
719 unnecessary local makes and an out-of-sync stamp-h.in file, but
720 would not cause problems for other people using the CVS files.
722 * Ken Hornstein's SASL patch was not integrated properly with
723 Ruud's new merged mts/sendmail code. Kimmo has since fixed nmh so
724 it compiles, but according to Ken, the SASL stuff still does not
725 work. Integrating a patch from him for this.
727 * Last pass at README.developers -- Kimmo's 5-step commit was
728 overkill. You only need 3 steps, since configure.in is the only
729 autoconf file with the RCS $Id keyword.
731 * Applied Kurt J. Lidl <lidl@eng.us.uu.net>'s $MAILHOST patch:
733 I have a small patch that would be nice to be included --
734 basically, it allows the usage of the "MAILHOST" environment
735 variable, without having to have HESIOD turned on. I need
736 this functionality for my environment, where we have identical
737 /usr/local on all my machines (so I cannot just hardcode into
738 the mts.conf file), and I have multiple POP mail servers for
741 Modified inc.man to reflect that along with "pophost:" and -host,
742 $MAILHOST can now activate POP mail inclusion as well.
744 * Fixed warnings from diff on first-time install of nmh. Also
745 added 'echo's clarifying the etc file installation activities.
747 Tue Jul 18 19:36:59 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
749 * Added the answer to Dan's question in README.developers.
751 Mon Jul 17 19:10:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
753 * Clarified and made some corrections to Kimmo's README.developers
754 changes (BTW, if anyone can explain why the RCS Ids are able to cause
755 problems with the dependencies, please fill in the explanation --
756 I never encountered a problem with the old single-commit method).
758 Sat Jul 15 23:13:49 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
760 * Add configure option --with-hash-backup so the backup prefix can
761 be easily changed from "," to "#".
763 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that it works with any make.
765 * Use mkstemp in sbr/lock_file.c.
767 * Commits of autoconf-related files apparently can't all be done
768 in one shot due to RCS Ids changing when committing -- updated
771 Tue Jul 11 14:18:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
773 * Clarified post.man and send.man for those not completely up on
774 SASL terminology. "SASL encryption layers are not supported for
775 SMTP" means that encryption is supported for the authentication
776 but not for the subsequent data stream.
778 Sat Jul 8 01:36:19 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
780 * Applied Ken Hornstein <kenh@cmf.nrl.navy.mil>'s patches
781 implementing SASL support for POP3 and SMTP. If nmh is compiled
782 with SASL support, using the -sasl switch on the inc, msgchk,
783 post, and send commands will enable authentication encryption for
784 SMTP, and both authentication and data stream encryption for POP3.
786 Sat Jun 10 18:37:59 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
788 * Merged mts/sendmail functionality into mts/smtp; switching between
789 smtp and sendmail delivery method is now controlled by mts.conf.
791 * If tsort cannot deal with loops, in addition to defining tsort as
792 cat, also define lorder as echo.
794 * Removed uip/popi.c from list of sources.
796 Thu Jun 08 19:36:57 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
798 * New dtimep.lex didn't parse day names properly. Fixed. Also
799 clarified ambiguous comments preceding day_map[] array (from old
800 dtimep.lex) that probably led to the erroneous cp++ being added.
802 Wed Jun 7 20:52:33 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
804 * Added one more mkstemp invocation to uip/spost.c (which was in a
807 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to clean up permissions handling
808 and error handling in uip/inc.c.
810 Mon Jun 5 22:10:07 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
812 * Use cat instead of tsort if tsort cannot deal with loops in its
813 input (which is the case for tsort from GNU textutils).
815 Mon Jun 5 21:14:36 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
817 * If lockfile is present, and its dotlockfile program is setgid,
818 inc does not need to be setgid.
820 Sun Jun 4 21:35:40 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
822 * Added autoconf test for Miquel van Smoorenburg's liblockfile
823 library, as found on Debian systems.
825 * Added liblockfile support to sbr/lock_file.c.
827 Wed May 31 7:19:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
829 * Fixed up dtimep.lex a bit. Added back memory options for AIX to
830 increase available memory. Took out %option noyywrap, which
831 wasn't understood by AT&T lex, as well as the -i
832 case-insensitivity flag.
834 Wed May 31 07:40:45 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
836 * Added a lint target to the Makefiles and a check in autoconf
837 to determine whether lint or lclint exists on the system.
839 Fri May 30 19:21:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
841 * etc/Makefile.in was incorrectly installing mts.conf.in and
842 sendfiles.in -- fixed. Generated sendfiles script was not a
843 dependency of the `all' target, and was incorrectly included in
844 the distribution. Changed the suffix for the backed-up previous
845 versions of the etc files from the ambiguous .old to .prev. Added
846 call to diff -- only keep the .prev files around if different from
847 the newly-installed versions (intentionally didn't redirect output
848 to /dev/null so you'll notice when your changed versions are
849 getting moved aside).
851 * INSTALL never documented the etc/*.old thing. Documented the
852 new etc/*.prev thing (including a note to watch for diff output).
854 * Applied Alec Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu>'s dropsbr.c patch:
856 In the map_write routine, a call is made to map_open and this
857 call is supposed to set the "clear" variable to 0 or 1,
858 depending on whether the map file is empty or not. In
859 mh6.8.3, this worked because map_open would set "clear" by
860 calling the mbx_Xopen routine. In nmh, the code for mbx_Xopen
861 was merged into mbx_open, but the interface for mbx_open
862 doesn't support the clear variable, so that functionality was
863 lost. The map_open interface still contains "int *clear" in
864 the prototype, but never sets it.
866 My patch eliminates "clear" from the map_open interface (I
867 checked to make sure that map_write is the only client of
868 map_open). Furthermore, my patch also sets the "clear"
869 variable properly at the beginning of map_write by calling
870 fstat(). This eliminates the bug in that the value of "clear"
871 being used later in the routine was just stack garbage.
873 Having a bad value of clear causes this next bug to be
874 triggered: The fp file pointer was being opened with fdopen,
875 but in two of the three switch cases it wasn't being closed.
876 In certain cases, this was causing packf to run out of file
877 descriptors if you attempted to pack a large folder.
879 Mon May 29 7:48:15 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
881 * Moved the date parsing routines from zotnet/tws to sbr/ (and
882 tws.h to h/). Updated all source files to reflect to new location
885 * Rewrote dparsetime (in dtimep.lex -> dtimep.c) to replace the
886 old zotnet/tws/dtimep.c, dtimep.lex, lexstring.c, lexedit.c, and
887 dtimep.c-lexed. It should now work with flex (although untested
888 with lex), and requires no sed-ing. For now, I have the lexed
889 version in the distribution, so that end-users don't need to worry
890 about running it through flex/lex. I have not added back support
891 for guessing the time zone when it's not specified.
893 Sun May 28 17:44:15 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
895 * Added autoconf check for getutent().
897 * Changed uip/rcvtty.c and uip/slocal.c to use getutent() and
898 friends. Since I can only check on Linux, please check if
899 this works on other systems.
901 Sun May 28 14:58:49 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
903 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to uip/scansbr.c for more
904 checks for write failures.
906 * Unlink temporary file properly in uip/rcvtty.c.
908 * Moved viamail from bindir to libdir.
910 * Changed sendfiles into sendfiles.in, so that path to viamail
913 * Added gzip support to sendfiles.
915 * Added References header to replcomps and replgroupcomps.
917 Sun May 28 14:39:31 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
919 * Fixed m_getfld bug which caused segmentation faults when
920 incorporating messages which ended in multiple linefeeds crossing
923 Fri May 26 13:21:59 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
925 * msh has been unable to show MIME messages ever since 1.0. Alec
926 Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu> tracked down the problem to the
927 -show flag being passed to mhshow. mhshow is equivalent to the
928 old mhn -show, so we don't need the -show anymore. Removed it.
930 Fri May 12 02:51:21 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
932 * zotnet/bboards is not longer built by default. Goal is to move
933 the assorted functions in zotnet into sbr or some more logical
936 * Moved zotnet/mf to sbr, and changed mf.h references accordingly,
937 as well as Makefiles.
939 Thu May 11 02:21:34 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
941 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that both SRCS and OBJS aren't
942 seperately and redundantly defined, but so that OBJS is a
943 pattern-substituted version of SRCS with suffix .c -> .o. This
944 should make maintainability easier.
946 * Added section to MACHINES indicating what platforms nmh is known
947 to compile and work on, just to give users peace of mind, or
948 something. This is by no means complete or exhaustive, so add
949 whatever you know works.
951 Tue May 09 20:38:04 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
953 * Alphabetized Shantonu's $pop_kinds output on configure's "pop is
954 enabled" line. If POP3 is the only kind of POP enabled, say so,
955 rather than just saying "yes" (which is ambiguous).
957 * Fixed four warnings in Shantonu's new getpass.c. Needed to
958 #include <stdlib.h> for calloc(), <unistd.h> for ttyname(), and
959 "h/mh.h" for adios(). Also changed ch from char to int to get rid
960 of "comparison is always 1 due to limited range of data type" on EOF.
962 * Added steps to README.developers saying to change the version
963 number to X.Y.Z+dev. Did a little rearranging and changed the FTP
964 dir from /home/ftp to /var/ftp to reflect Doug's new machine.
966 * Changed configure.in to use gcc -Wall even without
967 --enable-debug, to prevent developers compiling optimized from
968 introducing warnings, and to give end-users a warm, fuzzy feeling
969 as they (hopefully) see no warnings come out (except perhaps on
970 the lex output file) even with -Wall.
972 * Renamed getpass() to nmh_getpass() since the prototype for
973 getpass() varies from OS to OS, and we want to _always_ use our
974 version of the function. Fixed all the callers to use
975 nmh_getpass() and added it to prototypes.h. Semi-arbitrarily
976 upped MAX_PASSWORD_LEN from 128 to 256. buf was being calloc()'d
977 and the memory leaked -- should have just been declared as static
978 char array. Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the
979 copyright message, as this version has been changed significantly
980 from the BSD version.
982 * Added "nmh-local functions to use in preference to OS versions"
983 section to README.developers (currently just says to use
984 nmh_getpass() instead of system getpass()).
986 * Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the copyright message
989 * Added mts.conf.5 page per Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s
992 This happens on solaris:
995 windex entry incorrect: mts.conf(5) not found.
996 No manual entry for mts.conf.
1000 % echo ".so man5/mh-tailor.5" > mts.conf.5
1002 done in the man5 directory. We need to add 'mts.conf.5' as a
1003 reference sourcing mh-tailor.5.
1005 Mon May 08 23:51:55 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1007 * Doug informed me that the way I had restored the "lost" version
1008 histories was wrong, because `cvs checkout's of old versions of
1009 nmh wouldn't work properly. It occurs to me that this could be
1010 fixed by simply deleting those tags in the new-location *,v files,
1011 but oh well. I'm putting everything back to the way Doug
1012 originally had it. To get the old version history for a file that
1013 used to be in the top directory, you'll need to "blindly" do a
1014 `cvs log' there (even though you won't have a local copy of the
1015 file in that directory). `cvs diff' will no longer be able to
1016 diff pre-move versions vs. post-move versions -- you'll have to do
1017 a lot of manual gyrations with `cvs checkout' and then use `diff'.
1019 * I had alphabetized the --configure options in the --help output
1020 awhile back, but Shantonu added --enable-apop just under
1021 --enable-pop. Put it in alphabetical order and clarified what
1022 --enable-apop does vs. --enable-pop and --with-krb4. Also changed
1023 --with-mts help line from "mail transport agent" to "mail
1024 transport agent/service" so the 's' in "mts" doesn't seem to come
1027 * Added two steps to "releasing nmh" in README.developers. After
1028 making the tarball, it's a good idea to diff the tree vs. the CVS
1029 tree to make sure no files got left out, and then to chown the
1030 files so that they're owned by root, preventing a Trojaning attack
1031 by a malicious remote user with a UID matching yours.
1033 * Changed DIFFERENCES to say that RPOP is not currently supported
1034 rather than implying it by saying that APOP, KPOP, and POP[3] are.
1036 Sun May 07 18:16:43 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1038 * Imported NetBSD version of getpass() and made extensive
1039 revisions for compatibility with programs that pipe the password
1040 to stdin, such as exmh.
1042 * Removed tests for system ruserpass() which sometimes gave
1043 phantom positive results. Also, bext to use internal functions if
1044 we ever want to change .netrc format to something else, or access
1047 Sat May 06 08:28:09 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1049 * Restored lost version histories for those moved files by doing a
1050 manual `mv' in the CVSROOT on mhost. CVS badly needs a `cvs mv'
1051 command so that you can move files (without having physical access
1052 to the CVSROOT) without losing versioning. Put MACHINES back at
1053 the top level as it needs to be read before building. Fixed DIST
1054 variable in {.,docs}/Makefile.in to reflect that and to add
1055 missing entry for "INSTALL" file.
1057 Sat May 06 13:13:07 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1059 * Re-cleaned up nmh documentation (by moving things to docs
1060 subdir) and modified Makefile & configure.in to handle the change.
1062 Mon Apr 17 21:28:40 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1064 * Scott Blachowicz pointed out that the configure --help output
1065 for --enable-masquerade was misleading. Clarified.
1067 Mon Apr 17 19:01:00 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1069 * APOP support can be compiled in to inc and msgchk using
1072 * To access an APOP host, specify -apop on the command line
1073 along with any -host or -user option.
1075 Fri Apr 14 23:10:44 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1077 * Upped the version number to 1.0.4+dev until the next nmh release.
1079 * Added a "releasing nmh" section to README.developers, while the
1080 process was fresh in my mind.
1082 Fri Apr 14 18:21:34 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1084 * Added new files README.developers, ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6, and
1085 ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html to DIST target in Makefile.in.
1087 * Released nmh-1.0.4.
1089 Tue Apr 11 21:37:03 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1091 * Applied Brian Campbell <bacam@tardis.ed.ac.uk>'s mhn.defaults.sh
1094 It appears that there shouldn't be quotes around the %s in the
1095 iso-8859-1 charset entry; xterm passes the remaining arguments
1096 to the program, quoting them means that xterm thinks they're
1097 part of the program's name.
1099 This %s isn't the same as the "Insert content subtype" one from
1100 mhshow-show-* -- it doesn't come from MIME headers and is safe not
1103 Sun Apr 09 13:03:59 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1105 * added check in fmt_compile() to handle a single-character
1106 format string. fmt_compile() depends on having an array of
1107 format characters with an empty item at the end. A
1108 single-character format would cause programs using this
1109 function to segfault because the algorithm used to decide on
1110 the length of the array mistakenly created a single-item array
1111 when the format string was one character. This eventually
1112 caused problems when the program attempted to test item+1
1115 Thu Apr 06 21:53:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1117 * Richard Coleman threw out a lot of old MH-specific files in nmh.
1118 Much of the stuff, indeed, is not worth saving, but there are
1119 nuggets that are very worthwhile, and should probably be added
1120 back in. Most important, IMHO, are the MH change logs, as they
1121 can help answer questions like "Why is this code like this?" or
1122 "How long has this been broken?" or "What was this ever used for?"
1124 I've added a new file to the nmh tree called
1125 ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6. It's cobbled together from the
1126 mh-6.8.4/papers/mh*/MHCHANGES files. I've re-ordered the entries
1127 to go from newest at the top to oldest at the bottom to match the
1128 ChangeLog convention. Unfortunately there are no change logs for
1129 versions of MH prior to 3 in the MH tar files available at
1130 <ftp://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/mh>. Also, it appears to me that there
1131 are MH-6.6 changes that aren't documented in the logs.
1133 I've also added ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html. This is
1134 based on mh-6.8.4/papers/changes/mh-changes.ms. The nroff format
1135 and its "catman"-type output are a pain to deal with, but I was
1136 loath to throw away the formatting, so I converted the file to
1137 HTML. The only actual markup in the body are the "<B>" and "<U>"
1138 tags, and "<" and ">" instead of '<' and '>', so it's quite
1139 doable to view the file in plain ASCII mode as well. Note that
1140 some of the changes this file documents as having been made in
1141 MH-6.8.4 may not be present in nmh -- Richard started with 6.8.3
1142 and later put in certain 6.8.4 stuff.
1144 Wed Apr 05 21:09:28 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1146 * Applied Eric Schnoebelen <eric@cirr.com>'s mhshowsbr.c patch
1147 fixing apparent bugs in Dan Winship's new security quoting code:
1149 Since upgrading, I've been getting the following errors
1150 while attempting to process some MIME messages:
1152 (1) Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
1157 (2) line 1/10 (END)Segmentation fault (core dumped)
1159 (2) appears to be due to the testing of an unset pointer in
1160 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux(). (1) appears to be caused by
1161 mis-quoting a filename being handed to the shell in
1162 mhshowsbr.c:show_content_aux().
1164 Resolving the pointer reference issue in
1165 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux() turned up a similar mis-quoting
1166 problem in the routine.
1168 Tue Mar 28 16:17:39 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1170 * Applied Todd.Miller@courtesan.com's patch to dropsbr.c to
1171 prevent core dumping on packf. Here's the note from his message:
1173 Since sizeof(buffer) == sizeof(tmpbuffer) packf will dump
1174 core on a file w/o a From line with a line >= BUFSIZ.
1175 I noticed this because I had a junk file in my mail
1178 Fri Mar 17 11:59:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1180 * wesley.craig@umich.edu did not document his previous KPOP patch,
1181 so I did so, and asked him to check what I wrote. Unfortunately
1182 he didn't notice my misunderstanding of his patch. I wrote that
1183 if you #define POPSERVICE "kpop", inc and msgchk will use KPOP
1184 exclusively, but if you leave it as "pop3", you can use Wesley's
1185 new -kpop switch on a given invocation. Instead, however, -kpop
1186 turned out to be necessary on every invocation, and a KPOP user
1187 complained. Applied Wesley's new patch, which makes things work
1188 like I thought his original patch did. After that, did one more
1189 clarifying pass to the documentation in inc.man and msgchk.man.
1191 Wed Mar 15 18:45:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1193 * When I fixed the long-standing makedir() bugs in January, I had
1194 the code call strtoul(..., 0), which I believed to be safe as all
1195 modes specified as ASCII constants in the nmh code started with a
1196 leading zero (signifying octal), which I did as it would work if
1197 internal constants were ever changed to hex. Unfortunately I was
1198 unaware of the "Folder-Protect:" .mh_profile entry, which
1199 mh-profile.man documents as an octal-only constant, with no
1200 leading zero required. I've changed the strtoul() call to an
1201 atooi() call and removed the misleading leading zeroes on the
1202 ASCII octal constants in the code and man pages. Also changed the
1203 "Folder-Protect:" example in the man page to something more
1204 interesting than a duplication of the default.
1206 * When I added my --enable-masquerade option, you'll note that I
1207 didn't make it --enable-nmh-masquerade. I find the --enable-nmh-*
1208 options too wordy and I'm not sure why Richard went that route.
1209 I've renamed them to just --enable-*, but the old versions will
1210 still work as well (they just aren't advertised).
1212 * Added a line to the "nmh configuration" output saying whether
1215 * Added a new README.developers file. From the file:
1217 This file is intended to provide a few tips for anyone doing
1218 development on nmh. Developers who learn things "the hard
1219 way" about the nmh codebase (as opposed to local info best
1220 encoded in a comment) are encouraged to share their wisdom
1223 Currently the topics are "autoconf files" and "directory structure".
1225 Tue Mar 14 12:41:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1227 * Applied, after some finessing,
1228 Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s --with-smtpservers patch:
1230 Here's a patch that allows you to add
1232 --with-smtpservers=<some.host.name>
1234 to the ./configure command line to set the "servers: " line in
1235 etc/mts.conf. Around here, we use "mailhost" so that all
1236 machines in the current domain just talk to a central machine
1237 and nothing else runs an MTA. Now, I can use
1239 --with-smtpservers=mailhost
1241 instead of having to remember to fix this by hand (and often
1242 forgetting to do so!).
1244 * Inspired by Simon's patch, added an --enable-masquerade option
1245 to configure. It will set the "masquerade:" line of mts.conf.
1246 You may specify a subset of the three types of masquerading, like
1247 --enable-masquerade="draft_from mmailid", or leave off explicit
1248 arguments to enable all three types.
1250 * Alphabetized the --enable and --with options in configure.in and
1251 INSTALL and added documentation of the two new options to the latter.
1253 * Added new dependency for mts.conf: Makefile. If this isn't
1254 done, then when you reconfigure nmh with new values for
1255 --enable-masquerade or --with-smtpservers, you'll fail to get an
1256 updated copy of mts.conf.
1258 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtimep.lex patch:
1260 It seems that some MUA's didn't handle y2k very well - ELM
1261 seems to be one of them, and Ultrix's DXmail (based on MH!).
1262 I've got a few emails this month that look like:
1264 575 Jan 00 Xxxxxx Xxxx 3603 ...
1266 22+ Jan 00 Xxx Xxxxx 1771 ...
1268 The first has "15 Jan 100" as the date and the second has
1269 "19 Jan 00" as the date. The following works around this so
1270 that scan, show, sortm, etc work ok.
1272 I put Simon's patch under the control of a new #define called
1273 FIX_NON_Y2K_COMPLIANT_MUA_DATES. There's some commentary in
1274 acconfig.h about when you might not want to #define it.
1276 * Created new dtimep.c-lexed with Simon's change using dtimep.lex
1277 lexed on Solaris 2.6. Added missing dependency in
1278 zotnet/tws/Makefile.in for dtimep.c: dtimep.c-lexed.
1280 * Added scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD format files.
1282 Mon Mar 13 21:32:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1284 * Applied Sullivan N. Beck <sbeck@cise.ufl.edu>'s mhshow-suffix patch:
1286 With the patch below, you can add lines like:
1288 mhshow-suffix-application/msword: .doc
1289 mhshow-suffix-application/PostScript: .ps
1291 to the mhn.defaults file to append the given suffix to a
1292 scratch file. This allows applications which require a
1293 certain suffix to run properly.
1295 * Removed -force_html from lynx entry in mhn.defaults.sh (I
1296 believe older versions of lynx lack that option) and added
1297 "mhshow-suffix-text/html: .html".
1299 * Modified username_extension masquerading to only use the
1300 extended address on generated [Resent-]From: lines and SMTP
1301 envelope From:. With Neil's original implementation, nmh's global
1302 idea of the username was changed, which would result in inc lying
1303 and saying you had no new mail because it was looking for a
1304 mailbox called, for instance, "dan-nmh" (where username was "dan"
1305 and $USERNAME_EXTENSION was "-nmh").
1307 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtime.c patch:
1309 There's a wrap-around problem that affects the implementation
1310 of Zeller's congruence in dtime.c. This causes the day-of-week
1311 calculations to fail for dates after Feb 29, 2000 (probably up
1312 until some year far in the future).
1314 Mon Mar 06 12:20:20 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1316 * Applied Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s msh.c patch:
1318 I finally tracked down the problem in msh that was causing
1319 errors whenever I tried to examine a 'mmdf' style mailbox.
1321 It turns out that not enough memory was being allocated with
1322 calloc(), causing memory pointers to be overwritten and
1325 Fri Mar 03 16:07:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1327 * Changed the new "plussed_user" option to mts.conf's
1328 "masquerade:" to "username_extension" after getting feedback from
1329 qmail users, who use '-' as a separator rather than '+'. Removed
1330 checking of $USERPLUS variable. Now check $USERNAME_EXTENSION,
1331 which needs to include the appropriate separator for your MTA
1332 ('-', '+', or whatever) as its first character.
1334 Thu Mar 02 23:04:30 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1336 * Added a new "boolean" type to mh.h and TRUE and FALSE constants.
1338 * Added a note to DIFFERENCES stating that it's out-of-date
1339 (Richard was the last one to update it) and that we should
1340 consider only documenting incompatibilities with MH there.
1342 * Implemented (and documented) a third kind of username
1343 masquerading: "plussed user" masquerading. This one was suggested
1344 by Neil Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>. It's based on sendmail's
1345 "plussed user" feature, where mail sent to <user>+<string> will be
1346 delivered to <user>. When it's enabled, it's controlled by the
1347 $USERPLUS environment variable. How is it enabled? Well, that
1350 * Renamed the "mmailid:" setting in mts.conf to "masquerade:", and
1351 changed it so that rather than being a boolean, it can be set to
1352 any combination of the three values "draft_from", "mmailid", and
1353 "plussed_user". Thus it is now possible to enable the three types
1354 of masquerading individually.
1356 * Fixed a bug with "mmailid" masquerading (dating back to MH?)
1357 where if it was turned on, ','s would no longer be considered
1358 GECOS field delimiters.
1360 Wed Mar 01 23:30:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1362 * Changed the GECOS-field '&' translation behavior to be
1363 controlled by the BSD42 #define rather than GCOS_HACK, since it's
1364 apparently always appropriate on OSes where BSD42 is #defined, and
1365 never appropriate on any other OSes. Thanks to Kimmo Suominen for
1366 responding to my "What is this code here for?" comment in mts.c
1367 and explaining the feature.
1369 Mon Feb 28 21:50:29 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1371 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3+dev (ideally this should be
1372 done by whoever makes a release tar file, immediately after doing
1375 * Applied Paul Fox <pgf-spam@foxharp.boston.ma.us>'s scansbr.c
1376 patch, posted to comp.mail.mh, which he says prevents loss of mail
1377 when inc'ing into a full filesystem.
1379 * Changed "echo > stamp-h.in" in Makefile.in to "date > stamp-h.in"
1380 so that stamp-h.in will be different each time configure.in and
1381 related files are changed, making it easier to check it in (which
1382 is necessary to prevent unnecessary autoconf calls).
1384 * My declaration of initgroups() in slocal.c to eliminate the "no
1385 prototype" warning wasn't portable (FreeBSD 3.[23] choked). Now
1386 use AC_EGREP_HEADER to see where initgroups() is declared, if
1389 Sun Feb 20 12:17:15 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1391 * Fix security hole in mhshowsbr.c which allowed untrusted shell
1392 code to be executed.
1394 * Released nmh 1.0.3.
1396 Thu Feb 10 10:54:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1398 * Oops. %-escapes on mhstore lines in mhn.defaults.sh should not
1399 be surrounded by single quotes, as a shell is not spawned when
1400 just saving files, and the filenames will end up with literal
1401 quotes embedded in them.
1403 Fri Feb 04 12:29:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1405 * Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
1406 got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
1407 the -help output. One theory is that they were making reference
1408 to the fact that clearly you know about the -help option since
1409 you're currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea
1410 to overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
1411 supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
1414 The other theory is that because you can say something like
1415 "mhstore -" and get "mhstore: - ambiguous. It matches" followed
1416 by the same list of switches you get with -help, they were saying
1417 you can "sorta" abbreviate "-help" as "-". You don't get the
1418 "Usage:" string, though, so it's not really the same thing.
1420 Thu Feb 03 17:52:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1422 * Applied wesley.craig@umich.edu's KPOP patches. According to him:
1424 The following patch fixes a problem with requesting a
1425 service key for a machine that has multiple 'A' records. It
1426 also makes "-kpop" a command line option, for users who
1427 would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".
1429 Did no testing of the new features, as I don't have access to a
1432 * Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
1434 * Modified INSTALL and config.h.in to reflect the new -kpop feature.
1436 Fri Jan 28 17:39:24 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1438 * All %-escapes in mhn.defaults that actually expand to something
1439 should be surrounded by single quotes. Added quotes to the ones
1440 in mhn.defaults.sh that were missing them.
1442 * Added check for lynx to write mhshow-show-text/html line in
1445 Thu Jan 27 12:22:25 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1447 * makedir() had multiple bugs dating back to MH. An octal
1448 constant was apparently being interpreted as decimal, resulting in
1449 directories with no user read or execute permissions, making
1450 nested directory creation fail. And there wasn't even an
1451 _attempt_ to set desired permissions (e.g. from "Folder-Protect:"
1452 in .mh_profile) on the outer directories of a nested directory.
1454 * A second `make install' would always fail because the check for
1455 whether mh_profile.5 existed was written incorrectly.
1457 Wed Jan 26 02:22:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1459 * Added documentation on both types of masquerading to post's man
1462 Tue Jan 25 22:58:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1464 * Doug's portability fix of my setgid inc autodetection had a
1465 caching bug -- if you re-ran configure, uip/Makefile would be
1466 corrupted, and installation would bomb out on OSes where inc needs
1469 * Implemented a new kind of email address masquerading. Usually,
1470 when a user writes a custom "From:" header in a draft, nmh uses it
1471 rather than generating one. However, the user's true address is
1472 used in the SMTP envelope "From:" and is revealed in the "Sender:"
1473 header. Now, when mmailid is set to non-zero, the envelope
1474 "From:" uses the address specified in the draft "From:" header,
1475 and there is no "Sender:" header. This is useful when sending on
1476 behalf of a remote POP3 account or when remote mail robots
1477 incorrectly use the envelope "From:" in preference to the body
1478 "From:". This processing has only been implemented for post, not
1479 for the undocumented spost (which was already missing some "From:"
1480 processing that post has).
1482 Mon Jan 24 22:26:06 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1484 * Got rid of the rest of the gcc -Wall warnings that I didn't have
1485 time for on 1999-07-15 (and, it would seem, some new ones people
1486 introduced since then). The primary ones were the warnings that
1487 default prototypes were being used for [v]snprintf() and
1488 str[n]casecmp(). As of right now, there are _no_ compilation
1489 warnings except on dtimep.c-lexed (at least under AIX 4.1.5 and
1492 Sun Jan 2 23:42:18 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1494 * Move mhtest from bindir to libdir.
1496 * Move sendfiles from libdir to bindir.
1498 * Updated sendfiles manpage to reflect this change.
1500 * Added documentation for -build and -file switches to repl and
1501 forw manpages (patch from Peter Maydell).
1503 * Fixed interaction between specifying -cc in profile and -group on
1506 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1508 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
1509 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
1510 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
1513 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1515 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
1516 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
1517 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
1518 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
1519 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
1520 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).
1522 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1524 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
1526 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1528 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
1529 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
1530 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
1531 caught again. This works for now.
1533 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
1535 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1537 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
1538 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
1540 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1542 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
1543 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
1545 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
1547 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
1549 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1551 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
1552 changes. Both need more cleanup.
1554 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1556 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
1557 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
1558 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
1559 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
1560 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
1563 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1565 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
1566 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
1567 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
1569 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
1570 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
1573 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1575 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
1576 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
1577 to a directory on another device with more free space.
1579 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1581 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
1582 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
1584 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1586 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
1589 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
1590 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
1592 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
1593 macros, regardless of platform.
1595 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
1596 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1598 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
1599 with x-conversions=gzip.
1601 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1603 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
1606 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
1607 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
1608 implicit definition of ioctl().
1610 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
1611 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
1612 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
1613 want to mess with them.
1615 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1617 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
1618 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
1620 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
1621 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
1623 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
1624 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
1625 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
1627 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
1628 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
1629 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
1631 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
1632 function initgroups.
1634 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
1637 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
1638 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
1641 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
1642 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
1645 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
1646 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
1650 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1652 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
1653 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
1654 preventing compilation on at least linux.
1656 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
1657 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
1659 Thu Sep 09 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1661 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
1663 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
1664 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
1665 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
1666 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
1668 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
1669 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
1671 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1673 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
1675 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1677 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
1678 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
1680 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1682 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
1683 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
1685 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
1686 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
1687 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
1688 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
1690 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
1691 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
1693 Sat Jun 09 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1695 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
1696 substitute it for mktemp if available.
1698 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1700 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
1701 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
1704 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
1706 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
1708 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
1710 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
1711 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
1713 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
1714 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
1715 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
1717 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
1718 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
1719 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
1721 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
1722 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
1723 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1725 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
1726 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
1729 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
1730 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1732 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
1733 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1735 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
1736 <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1738 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
1739 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
1740 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1742 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
1743 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1745 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
1746 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
1747 <elleron@servtech.com>.
1749 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
1750 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
1753 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
1754 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
1756 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
1757 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
1758 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
1759 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
1761 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
1762 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
1764 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1768 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
1769 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
1770 would not be changed.
1772 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
1773 one from the Apache web server.
1775 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
1776 (this should have been done a long time ago).
1778 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
1779 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
1780 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
1782 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
1784 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
1786 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
1787 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
1790 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
1791 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
1792 removes a bad race condition.
1794 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
1797 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
1798 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
1799 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
1801 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
1802 sequence information.
1804 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
1805 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
1807 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
1810 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
1813 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
1815 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
1816 interpret 034 as octal.
1818 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
1820 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
1821 mhstore, and mhbuild.
1823 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
1824 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
1826 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
1827 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
1829 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
1830 in the c_cefile structure when building.
1832 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
1833 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
1835 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
1836 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
1837 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
1839 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
1840 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
1841 and mhshow. Updated man pages
1843 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
1845 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
1847 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
1848 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
1851 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
1853 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
1854 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
1856 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
1857 header field information.
1859 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
1860 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
1862 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
1863 values when parsing a content.
1865 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
1866 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
1868 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
1869 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
1871 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
1872 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1874 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
1875 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
1877 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
1879 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
1881 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
1883 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
1885 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
1886 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
1889 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
1890 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
1892 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
1893 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
1894 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
1895 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
1896 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
1897 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
1900 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1902 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
1903 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
1904 buffer length checks for this parameter.
1906 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
1907 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
1909 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1911 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
1912 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
1913 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
1914 of the limits on the length of command lines.
1916 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
1917 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
1920 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
1921 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
1922 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
1923 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
1926 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1928 * Released nmh-0.27.
1930 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
1931 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
1933 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
1934 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
1935 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
1936 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
1939 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
1940 mhbuild returns an error.
1942 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
1943 rename the draft file.
1945 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
1946 use a global variable.
1948 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
1949 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
1951 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
1952 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
1954 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
1955 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
1956 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
1958 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
1959 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
1961 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
1962 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
1965 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
1966 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
1969 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
1970 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
1972 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
1973 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
1974 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
1976 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
1977 to new function output_content_folder.
1979 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
1980 new function output_content_file.
1982 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
1983 to new function parse_format_string.
1985 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
1986 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
1987 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
1988 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
1990 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
1991 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
1992 message/external file from ftp.
1994 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
1995 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
1996 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
1998 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
1999 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
2002 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
2005 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
2006 new file mhstoresbr.c
2008 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
2011 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
2012 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
2014 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
2015 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
2017 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
2018 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
2019 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
2021 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
2023 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
2025 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
2026 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
2029 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
2030 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
2032 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
2035 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
2037 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2039 * Released nmh-0.26.
2041 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
2042 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
2043 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
2044 is still the same (dashstuffing).
2046 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
2047 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
2048 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
2049 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
2050 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
2052 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
2053 But it is not on by default.
2055 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
2056 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
2058 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
2060 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
2062 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
2064 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
2066 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
2067 number of the "cur" message when packing.
2069 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2071 * Released nmh-0.25.
2073 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
2074 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
2075 uses the original name of the library.
2077 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
2078 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
2081 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
2082 list_content and list_debug.
2084 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
2086 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
2087 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.
2089 1998-02-27 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2091 * Released nmh-0.24.
2093 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
2095 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
2096 are given, that order doesn't matter.
2098 * Fix bug in seq_list.c when realloc'ing for
2099 large sequence line.
2101 1998-02-23 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2103 * Released nmh-0.23.
2105 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
2107 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
2108 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan
2109 content, decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary
2110 string). I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
2112 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
2113 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
2116 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
2118 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
2120 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
2122 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
2123 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
2125 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
2126 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.
2128 * Add note to MACHINES file that on Linux, configure
2129 doesn't find the functions sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
2131 * Fix configuration for machines that don't have (or find)
2132 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
2134 1998-02-11 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2136 * Released nmh-0.22.
2138 * Add a configure check for sigsetjmp. Add some conditional
2139 #define's in h/signals.h in case it's not found.
2141 * Added additional notes about -auto switch in mhn man page.
2143 * Added note about MM_CHARSET environment variable to
2144 mh-profile(5) man page.
2146 * Fix signal problem in mhn.c (change setjmp/longjmp to
2147 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp).
2149 1998-02-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2151 * Released nmh-0.22-pre1.
2153 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
2154 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
2156 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
2158 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
2159 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
2160 entry point for parsing MIME files.
2162 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
2163 source message on the standard input.
2165 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
2167 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
2168 rather than -rfc934mode.
2170 * Fix mhbuild, so that Content-Description and RFC-822 comments
2171 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
2174 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
2175 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).
2177 * Restore HP specific code to zotnet/tws/lexstring.c. Apparently
2180 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2182 * Released nmh-0.21.
2184 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
2185 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.
2187 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what transfer
2190 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what character set
2191 to use for text contents.
2193 * Removed old hpux specific code from zotnet/tws/lexstring.c
2195 1998-02-02 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2197 * Released nmh-0.21-pre2.
2199 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
2201 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
2202 header fields as per RFC-2047.
2204 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
2205 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
2206 spaces between encoded word are.
2208 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
2210 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
2211 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
2213 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
2214 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
2215 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
2217 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
2219 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
2220 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
2222 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.
2224 * Added support for %(decode) to fmtdump.c.
2226 * check_charset() now accepts US-ASCII as a subset of any
2227 ISO-8859-X character set.
2229 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
2232 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
2233 permissions, not write permissions.
2235 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
2236 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
2238 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
2241 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2243 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
2245 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
2246 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
2248 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
2249 message contains valid character set.
2251 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
2252 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
2254 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
2255 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
2257 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
2258 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
2259 between an encoded word and normal text.
2261 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
2262 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
2264 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
2265 as a RFC-2047 header field.
2267 * The command install-mh now recognizes the switches -version
2270 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
2271 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
2274 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
2275 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
2277 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
2278 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
2280 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
2282 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2284 * Released nmh-0.20.
2286 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
2288 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.
2290 * Changed the default format file for mhl (mhl.format) to
2291 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
2292 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
2294 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
2295 and the To: line was missing.
2297 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
2299 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2301 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
2303 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
2304 watch the POP transaction.
2306 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
2307 first, and use it if available.
2309 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
2310 first, and use it if available.
2312 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2314 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
2316 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
2317 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
2318 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
2321 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
2322 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
2323 returns the state FLDPLUS.
2325 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
2326 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
2329 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
2331 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
2332 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
2334 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
2336 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
2337 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
2339 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
2340 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
2341 message to which you are replying.
2343 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
2344 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
2345 making group replies.
2347 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
2349 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2351 * Released nmh-0.19.
2353 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
2354 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
2356 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
2357 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
2358 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
2359 to the end of the man page.
2361 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
2362 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
2363 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
2364 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
2365 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
2366 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
2368 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
2371 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
2372 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
2373 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
2375 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
2376 the next available number above the message number you wish
2379 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
2380 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
2382 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
2383 file sbr/seq_print.c
2385 * flist will now update the current folder.
2387 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
2388 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
2389 but now undocumented.
2391 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
2394 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
2395 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
2397 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
2399 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
2400 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
2402 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2404 * Released nmh-0.18.
2406 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
2407 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
2408 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
2410 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
2411 retains the public/private status of sequences.
2413 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
2414 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
2415 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
2416 previous public/private status.
2418 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
2421 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
2424 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
2425 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
2426 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
2428 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
2429 take option to determine whether it should get current
2430 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
2431 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
2433 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
2435 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
2436 wait for stopped processes.
2438 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
2439 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
2441 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2443 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
2445 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
2446 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
2448 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
2449 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
2451 * Change the way that memory for message status is
2452 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
2453 the folder/message structure. This required changing
2454 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
2456 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
2459 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
2462 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
2464 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
2465 the debugging output.
2467 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
2468 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
2470 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2472 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
2474 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
2475 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
2477 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
2479 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
2480 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
2481 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
2482 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
2483 in the given sequence.
2485 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
2486 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
2487 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
2488 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
2489 subdirectories of a given directory.
2491 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
2492 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
2493 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
2495 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
2496 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
2498 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
2500 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
2503 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
2504 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
2505 fields are now calculated at runtime.
2507 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
2508 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
2509 are calculated at runtime.
2511 Sun Nov 30 19:14:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2513 * Released nmh-0.18-pre2.
2515 * Add paragraph to man page for install-mh and to INSTALL file
2516 about checking for global mh.profile.
2518 * Renamed m_find() to context_find().
2519 Renamed m_replace() to context_replace().
2520 Renamed m_delete() to context_del().
2521 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
2522 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
2523 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
2525 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
2526 adding message to folder itself.
2528 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
2529 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
2530 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
2533 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
2534 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
2537 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
2538 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
2539 is the same as the direct smtp code).
2541 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
2542 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
2544 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
2545 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
2546 code to use it yet).
2548 Thu Nov 13 18:42:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2550 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.
2552 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never
2553 called with a value larger than 30 mintues.
2555 * Fixed race condition in rmm and refile, so that
2556 context is updated before external rmmproc is called.
2558 * Removed all the OVERHEAD code.
2560 * Move code to add message to folder from refile.c
2563 Fri Jul 25 19:39:29 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2565 * Did some rearranging of the internals of inc.c.
2567 * Make -inplace the default for anno, forw, dist, and repl.
2569 * Changed --enable-smtp to --with-mts={smtp,sendmail}
2571 * Created new directory mts/sendmail for direct sendmail
2572 interface (although it currently still uses SMTP).
2574 * Removed all the TMA (trusted mail agent) code
2576 * Removed all the TTYD (terminal access daemon) code
2578 * Removed all the MF (uucp filtering) code.
2580 * Removed all the code for BERK.
2582 * Removed all the code for stand-alone delivery (MHMTS).
2584 * Split the file mts/sendmail/smail.c into sendmail.c and
2585 smtp.c. Changed the name of the directory to mts/smtp.
2587 * Changed autoconf to use @sysconfdir@ for location of
2588 configuration files.
2590 * Changed #define in mhn.c from FTP to BUILTIN_FTP.
2592 Mon Jul 21 03:22:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2594 * Released nmh-0.17.
2596 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
2598 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
2599 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
2601 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
2604 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
2605 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
2607 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
2608 number of refiled message.
2610 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
2612 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
2613 for return value of wait().
2615 * Change configure to also check /bin for "more".
2617 Sat Jul 12 00:02:23 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2619 * Released nmh-0.16.
2621 Mon Jun 23 20:13:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2623 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
2625 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
2626 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
2627 deal with binary messages, yet).
2629 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
2631 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
2633 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
2634 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
2635 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
2636 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
2637 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
2638 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
2640 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
2641 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
2643 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
2644 From MH-6.8.4 patch.
2646 * Fix double free of ctinfo in user_content when using
2647 #forw with single message. From John MacMillan (and
2650 * Changed -mhnproc switch for show, to -showmimeproc.
2652 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".
2654 * Added "mime" option to "whatnow", which calls the program
2655 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
2658 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
2661 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
2663 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
2664 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
2665 which used unsigned chars by default.
2667 Sat Jun 21 01:21:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2669 * Released nmh-0.15.
2671 * Added new form "scan.unseen" to distribution. It marks messages
2672 which are in any sequence in Unseen-Sequence.
2674 * Do some rearranging of date/time code in zotnet/tws/dtime.c
2676 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
2678 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
2681 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
2682 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
2683 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
2685 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
2686 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
2688 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
2690 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
2691 they conflict with defines on AIX.
2693 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
2694 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
2695 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
2696 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
2698 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
2699 and put in own subroutine.
2701 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
2702 and put in own subroutine.
2704 * Moved code to remove messages from folder into own
2705 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and
2706 refile.c to use new routine.
2708 Fri May 16 06:09:31 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2710 * Renamed m_seqok to seq_nameok.
2712 * Changed m_setunseen, msh, mshcmds, flist, and scan to use
2715 * Changed m_seqflag to return the number of a sequence rather
2716 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
2717 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
2719 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
2722 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before
2723 adding message to sequence.
2725 * Renamed function m_setvis to m_setunseen, and renamed
2726 corresponding file in sbr.
2728 * Renamed function m_setseq to m_setprev, and renamed corresponding
2731 * Changed mark.c and pick.c to use m_seqaddsel and m_seqdelsel.
2733 * Added new function m_seqdelsel to m_seqdel.c, which deletes
2734 all selected messages from a sequence.
2736 * Added new function m_seqaddsel to m_seqadd.c, which adds all
2737 selected messages to a sequence.
2739 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,
2742 Thu May 15 00:53:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2744 * Renamed function pack_folder to m_packfolder, and moved it
2745 from uip/folder.c into its own file sbr/m_packfolder.c
2747 Wed May 14 23:38:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2749 * Changed function m_gmsg to m_readfolder. Renamed file
2750 sbr/m_gmsg.c to sbr/m_readfolder.c.
2752 Mon May 5 19:57:11 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2754 * Expanded rcvtty man page, and added small patch from
2755 MH-6.8.4 distribution.

2759 * Released nmh-0.14.
2761 * Comment out configure test and code for tgetent to allocate its
2762 own termcap buffer when passed a NULL argument.
2764 Sat Apr 26 03:46:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2766 * Added new options `-checkmime', `-nocheckmime', and `-mhnproc'
2767 to show. Restructured code to handle options to various
2768 `procs' better. Deprecated `-noshowproc' option and NOMHNPROC
2769 environment variable.
2771 * Added new man page `mh-draft' which documents the
2772 draft folder facility in nmh.
2774 * Renamed fmtsbr.h to fmt_scan.h. Renamed fmtcompile.h
2777 * split fmtsbr.c into fmt_scan.c and fmt_new.c. Renamed

2781 * `send -help' wasn't showing the -(no)mime and -split
2784 Fri Apr 25 02:50:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2786 * Released nmh-0.13.
2788 * Changed mhpath so it doesn't abort if a message sequence
2789 such as "mhpath all" expands to more than 1000 messages.
2790 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
2791 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
2794 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
2795 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
2797 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2799 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if
2800 necessary. So `folders' can now handle more than 300 folders.
2802 Tue Apr 22 14:01:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2804 * Change configure to use a compile check to see if the tm struct
2805 has tm_gmtoff, rather than using egrep.
2807 Mon Apr 21 02:19:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2809 * Released nmh-0.12.
2811 * Had set_exists and unset_exists macros backwards.
2813 * Released nmh-0.11.
2815 Thu Apr 10 02:39:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2817 * Added documentation to mh-profile.man about the various
2818 `procs' (mhlproc, showproc, lproc, etc...).
2820 * Replace the bit twiddling for SELECTED, UNSEEN, and
2821 mp->attrstats with macros.
2823 * If system doesn't have SIGEMT (like Linux), then use SIGTERM
2826 * Change fstat to stat in m_gmsg.c since Linux wants
2829 * Merge Linux patch sent in by Michel Oosterhof (original
2830 patch from bsa@kf8nh.wariat.org).
2832 * Document an undocumented MH feature. mhn -form mhl.null
2833 will suppress the display of the message header.
2835 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
2837 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c
2838 and mshcmds.c, rather than hard coding in /bin/cat.
2840 * Add mhnproc to the list of `procs' in mh-profile.man.
2842 * Add configure test for lorder and tsort commands.
2844 * Commented out the padding in the `msgs` struct in h/mh.h
2846 * Change m_gmsg.c to allocate elements to the `info' array by
2847 500 elements at a time (rather than MAXFOLDERS / 5).
2849 * Add note to man page for mhmail that zero length messages are
2850 not sent. Need to use -body "" to send empty messages.
2852 * zotnet/mts/mts.c : compare character with '\0', not NULL.
2854 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
2856 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
2857 folder/message structure when done with folder.
2859 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is
2860 defined even if message is missing "From " line.
2862 Mon Mar 31 03:37:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2864 * Released nmh-0.10.

2871 Thu Mar 20 03:21:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2873 * Reversed previous decision to retain "From " lines in slocal.
2874 The "From " line is now removed from all messages.
2876 * inc now saves the date from the "From " envelope in the
2877 Delivery-Date header for all messages.
2879 * sbr/m_getfld.c: Clean up processing of Return-Path and
2880 Delivery-Date from the "From " envelope.
2882 Mon Mar 17 19:03:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2884 * client.c: cast iaddr to int before comparing return value
2885 of inet_addr with NOTOK.
2887 Tue Mar 11 04:38:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2889 * Grep test for signal names was failing on some OS'es because
2890 of missing tabs in regex.
2892 Sat Mar 8 01:58:22 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2894 * Released nmh-0.09.
2896 * Move config files and format files to *.old before installing.

2912 * ruserpass.c : removed conflicting prototypes.
2914 * rcvtty.c : Fixed rcvtty to obey terminal permissions granted

2917 Mon Mar 3 00:18:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2919 * rcvtty.c : Changed to use #define UTMP_FILE (if exists) rather
2920 than hard coded "/etc/utmp".
2922 * Released nmh-0.08.
2924 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
2925 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of
2926 locking database itself.
2928 Thu Feb 27 05:28:09 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2930 * Added slocal action `mmdf' to deliver to a file in mmdf format.
2932 * Changed the slocal actions `file' and `>' to always deliver in
2933 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
2936 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
2937 rather than mmdf format.
2939 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
2940 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
2941 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
2942 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
2944 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
2946 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2948 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
2951 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2952 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2953 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
2955 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2956 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2957 rcvpack so you can choose the preferred format.
2959 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2961 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
2962 can still easily change this in config.h).
2964 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
2965 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
2966 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
2968 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2970 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather
2971 than tzset and external timezone variable.
2973 Thu Feb 13 00:35:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2975 * Fixed typo in ruserpass.c in the variable toktabs.
2977 * When ruserpass was added to LIBOBJS, it was missing

2982 Tue Feb 11 01:29:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2984 * Add check to configure, so that if ruserpass, or _ruserpass
2985 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
2987 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
2988 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
2991 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
2992 built-in FTP client in mhn.
2994 * Added configure check for ushort and ulong. Change code
2995 to use ushort/ulong rather than u_short/u_long.
2997 * A couple of small cleanups in locking code.
2999 * Added configure check for gmtoff element in struct tm.
3001 * Added configure check for tzset.

3005 * Released nmh-0.06.
3007 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
3008 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
3010 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
3011 many such machines around anymore.
3013 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
3014 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
3016 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
3017 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
3019 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3021 * Check lex generated file in zotnet/tws and use
3022 pre-generated version if necessary.
3024 * Released nmh-0.05.
3026 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
3027 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
3028 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
3029 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
3031 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
3032 be linked in one pass.
3034 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3036 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
3037 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
3039 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3041 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
3043 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3045 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
3046 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
3047 become the current folder.
3049 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3051 * Released nmh-0.04.
3053 * Define ospeed and PC in termsbr.c is OS doesn't have
3056 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3058 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
3059 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
3060 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
3062 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3064 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
3065 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
3067 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3069 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
3070 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
3073 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
3074 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
3076 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3078 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
3079 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
3080 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
3081 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
3082 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
3083 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
3085 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3087 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
3088 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
3090 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
3091 a file (currently need to specify full path).
3093 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3095 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
3096 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
3098 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3100 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
3101 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
3102 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
3104 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3106 * Released nmh-0.03.
3108 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
3109 .mh_sequence file existed.
3111 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
3112 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
3114 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
3115 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
3118 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3120 * Changed flist option -unseen to -[no]all. Cleaned up
3123 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3125 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
3126 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
3127 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
3129 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3131 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
3132 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
3133 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
3135 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3137 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL
3138 and allocate its own buffer. Borrowed from zsh.
3140 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
3142 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3144 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
3145 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
3146 directory from where the source code is located.
3148 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3150 * Released nmh-0.02.
3152 Wed Jan 1 17:41:52 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3154 * Split mhook man page into man pages for rcvdist, rcvpack,
3157 Tue Dec 31 03:07:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3159 * Changed code to use strerror, rather than using sys_errlist
3160 and sys_nerr directly.
3162 Mon Dec 30 02:15:25 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3164 * -compat switch from install-mh removed.
3166 * Changed the default POP port from "pop" to "pop3".
3168 Sat Dec 28 13:25:05 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3170 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
3171 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
3172 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
3173 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
3174 rather than in script.
3176 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3178 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
3180 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with
3181 macro defined on Solaris.
3183 Thu Dec 26 02:50:15 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3185 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
3186 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
3188 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
3189 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
3190 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
3191 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
3194 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3196 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
3197 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.
3199 * Fixed configure test so that termcap variable ospeed is
3202 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3204 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
3206 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included
3207 in mhn.c. Changed md5 to use memset and memcpy.
3209 Fri Dec 20 02:29:37 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3211 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
3212 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
3214 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3216 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
3217 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
3218 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
3219 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
3220 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
3221 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
3223 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3225 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
3227 * Released nmh-0.01.
3229 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
3230 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
3231 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
3234 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3236 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
3239 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3241 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
3242 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
3244 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3246 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
3247 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
3248 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
3249 script to find_program.
3251 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3253 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
3254 speed up -recurse option.
3256 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
3257 yet, but it compiles :-)
3259 * Changed default location for install to
3260 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
3261 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
3262 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
3265 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
3266 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
3267 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
