1 Fri Jul 01 22:02:00 2003 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
3 * Applied fixes for configuration problems with Solaris and
4 systems with gdbm instead of db1 (includes bug #2024)
5 * Fixes for bugs #578, 1393, 1650, 1730, 3356
6 * Revised man page for mh-format (bug #2031)
7 * New replcomps, etc, with Fcc: +outbox in default versions
9 Sat Mar 17 03:18:15 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
11 * Ken Hornstein's configure.in Cyrus SASL checks were doing
12 `x"$with_cyrus_sasl" != "no"' instead of `... != x"no"'.
14 Tue Mar 06 21:04:27 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
16 * Found some historical information about MH in RFC 808.
17 Supplemented it with info from Jerry Peek's MH book and added it
20 Tue Feb 6 20:35:40 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
22 * sbr/dtime.c Use the same Y2K correction code as dtimep.lex
24 * sbr/dtimep.lex Restrict the parser to accept either
25 a numerical timezone offset, or a symbolic one (e.g. EST),
26 but not both (Since "2000 -400 EDT" might cause a double
27 subtraction of 60 minutes if both are parsed. One should be
30 Mon Feb 05 20:22:54 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
32 * -L isn't sufficient for specifying the path of the Cyrus SASL
33 shared library. That'll allow us to link successfully, but on
34 many/most OSes that won't allow us to find libsasl at runtime. On
35 Solaris, we need to specify the library path with -R as well (or
36 else the user will have to use the $LD_LIBRARY_PATH kludge, which
37 is considered harmful). This fix should be extended to other OSes
40 * Print whether we have SASL support in the "nmh configuration"
41 summary configure prints out.
43 * Say in README.developers to use `\date' in case anyone is like
44 me and has `date' aliased in their shell to use a nonstandard (but
45 subjectively more readable) format.
47 Thu Jan 25 21:15:52 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
49 * man/mh-chart.man has updated synposes of
52 Tue Jan 23 20:26:15 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
54 * etc/digestcomps tried to force dates into a
55 19xx when it's not necessary.
57 Fri Jan 19 21:22:08 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
59 * First round of manpage updates finished. They
60 are standardized on -man macros, with minimal
63 * man/tmac.h.in is no longer needed, since the
64 manpages do not depend on them anymore. Note:
65 strict "man" programs that didn't allow ".so"
66 sourcing outside the man tree will now format
67 the man pages correctly.
69 * man/vmh.1 is no longer built, since uip/vmh isn't
71 Tue Jan 9 6:01:22 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
73 * Finished manpages ali-prev
75 * Removed deprecated files from the repository.
76 Specifically, those rooted in zotnet/ and mts/sendmail
77 mts/mmdf. "cvs update -dP" will give a pruned directory
80 * Updated docs/Makefile.in to include README.manpages, and
81 uip/Makefile.in to include popi.c (which isn't being built,
82 though). This allows "make nmhdist" to create an archive that
83 is file-for-file identical to the current cvs repository.
85 Sun Dec 31 20:48:50 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
87 * Create docs/README.manpages, which details
88 the formatting rules I've been using.
92 Sat Dec 30 9:50:13 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
94 * Created a new file "DATE" to hold the date
95 of the most recent nmh release. This date will be
98 * Updated docs/README.developers to add the step
99 of updating DATE. Also, updated configure to
100 read in the contents of the file as the variable
103 * Started work on updating man pages, with only
104 ali finished so far. Changes: 1) no dependence
105 on an external macro file, 2) uses only
106 -man macros (although I may be mistaken in this),
107 3) syntax in the SYNOPSIS is a little more
108 in line with standard UNIX documentation, such as
109 bold flags and italicized parameters.
111 Sun Dec 24 10:06:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
113 * Updated INSTALL with information about the
114 --with-locking option.
116 * Fixed the Hesiod tests in configure.in. In
117 systems where res_send was in -lresolv, this
118 information was not being communicated to the
119 HESIOD_LIBS var. Now, if res_send is not found
120 in the default libraries, it's assumed to be
121 in -lresolv, and thus -lresolv is appended to
122 HESIOD_LIBS, which will need that to avoid
123 undefined symbols problems.
125 * Fixed the Kerberos tests in configure.in. New
126 versions of Kerberos 5 have renamed -lcrypto
127 to -lk5crypto (circa krb5 1.1 or thereabouts). The
128 new test tries to determine if -lk5crypto exists. If so,
129 this is a new krb5 system. If not, test for -lcrypto
130 and the rest of old krb5. If that fails, look
131 for a genuine krb4 installation.
133 Fri Dec 22 22:08:51 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
135 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in msgchk.man.
136 -snoop was documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
138 Fri Dec 22 23:42:16 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
140 * Made a new ./configure option called
141 "--with-locking" that allows the file
142 locking mechanism to be chosen there instead of
143 requiring a manual edit of config.h.
145 * If the option is not explicitly set, or an
146 invalid option is specified, "dot" locking is
147 chosen. Valid options are "dot", "fcntl",
148 "flock", and "lockf". We need a way to tell
149 the user that these are the valid options, and
150 change the flag "--with-locking" if it's not
153 Fri Dec 22 19:21:29 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
155 * Remove the lex-specific memory hints at the
156 beginning of sbr/dtimep.lex. We've already
157 committed to supporting flex only, since
158 lex does not easily allow us to parse a single
159 string, as well as other problems documented
160 below and on nmh-workers.
162 * Added a switch statement to configure.in to
163 test for Mac OS X. If this is the case, LDFLAGS
164 should not contain "-s" since the linker rejects
167 * Updated MACHINES to include Mac OS X Public Beta,
168 as well as Linux 2.4 running glibc 2.2.
170 Wed Dec 20 16:00:46 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
172 * Marked deprecated directories in docs/README.developers
173 as deprecated, with pointers to the new code location.
174 Eventually these deprecated directories should go away.
176 Tue Dec 19 19:16:37 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
178 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in inc.man. -snoop was
179 documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
181 Thu Dec 14 14:32:09 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
183 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
184 versions on ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/config, dated
185 12-07-00. This should prevent configure from failing
186 on newer operating systems because config.{guess,sub}
187 couldn't correctly identify them.
189 Thu Dec 14 1:30:44 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
191 * Fixed the circular dependency created when I moved
192 zotnet/mts to mts/generic and merged them into libmts.
193 mts/generic/client.c and mts/generic/mts.c are now in sbr/
194 (and thus in libmh), which makes libmh self-contained and
195 not depending on an external archive.
197 * All include statements now look for mts.h in h/. The
198 Makefiles and configure script have been modified so that
199 mts/generic is no longer built.
201 Mon Dec 11 22:08:07 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
203 * When Shantonu made the new libmts.a, he swapped $(MTSLIB) and
204 libmh.a in sbr/Makefile.in so that libmh.a comes first, but this
205 causes the build to fail on Solaris, because libmts.a has to get
206 ruserpass() out of libmh.a. Swapping them back to the way Ken
207 Hornstein's patch (which I applied on Jul 20) put them, with
208 libmh.a correctly coming second. If there are times when libmts.a
209 needs to come second, then it would appear there's a circular
210 dependency and someone (Shantonu?) did an mts merge incorrectly.
212 Fri Sep 8 01:36:23 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
214 * Took out bad time textual time zones like BST and JST.
215 I found them online somewhere, but am not sure if they're
218 Fri Sep 8 00:36:48 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
220 * Moved zotnet/mts to mts/generic. This code reorganization
221 makes the entire zotnet tree deprecated -- bboards is unneeded,
222 mf was was moved to sbr, tws was rewritten and moved to sbr, and
225 * Created a new static library called libmts.a used during
226 compilation which includes the generic mts code and the
227 smtp/sendmail code. This supercedes the functionality of the
228 old libsmtp.a and the remains of libzot.a.
230 * Updated header includes to reference the new location of mts.h
231 in mts/generic/mts.h. Also, update the configure and top-level
232 Makefile not to descend into zotnet. Also, they don't descend
233 into mts/mmdf and mts/sendmail (the sendmail code has been
234 merged into the smtp code).
236 * Added #include <h/nmh.h> to h/md5.h, since my compile was
237 complaining about implicitly-declared memcpy and memset, which
238 appear to be in strings.h. In any event, nmh.h should take care
241 * When doing a "make nmhdist", notice that the generated
242 snapshot does not include zotnet of the mts directories as noted
243 above. Since they are no longer compiled, and I don't see any
244 obvious code path to get to them, end-users should probably
245 not need them. If you think otherwise, turn Makefile generation
246 back on in configure.in and turn on recursion into those dirs
247 in the appropriate Makefile.in
249 Wed Sep 6 22:40:03 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
251 * Tracked down the problem in the new dtimep where time
252 zones were being radically misreported. It was because the
253 parser knew about military time zones (such as M or E) but in
254 some cases did not know about the textual representation of
255 some zones (like MET). When it encountered one of these, the
256 date parser misread MET as the military time zone T (well, first
257 zone M, then E, and finally T). I took military zones out, and
258 things seem much better. Also, the default behavior of parsing
259 time zones appears to default to GMT in the absence of better
260 info, which is less bogus than assuming the mail came from the
261 current time zone, which was the behavior in 1.04.
263 Thu Aug 10 13:22:13 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
265 * Decided that limiting the message number columns to 3 on my
266 scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD (to try to regain space taken by
267 extra date info) was ill-conceived. It's not that tough to get
268 past 999 messages, though I imagine it's rather rare to exceed
269 9999. Changed these to 4. Also put the "replied / encrypted"
270 column back in YYYYMMDD -- I've never seen it show anything but a
271 space, but that space is useful if you use scan, grep, and awk
272 (with the default field separator) to grab message numbers (I know
273 -- pick should really be used for these purposes...).
275 Mon Aug 7 20:11:09 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
277 * Modify umask set by mhshow to enable user execute bit, so that
278 viewers that create temporary directories (e.g., lynx) will be
281 Thu Aug 03 17:14:08 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
283 * TODO: Allow multiple simultaneous differing contexts, probably
284 each tied to a parent (terminal) process.
286 Tue Aug 1 10:48:05 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
288 * Makefile install rules should not look for generated files in
289 the source tree -- this will happen to work when configuring and
290 building inside the source tree but will fail when using an
291 external build tree. Fixed etc/Makefile.in.
293 Mon Jul 24 16:20:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
295 * When Shantonu wrote the new, more portable dtimep.lex, he left
296 out the #ifdef DSTXXX stuff for some reason. Not a good idea, as
297 that code is required for proper printing of numeric-offset
298 timezones that have daylight saving time. Without that code,
299 -0700 during DST gets printed as MST instead of PDT.
301 * Renamed DSTXXX as ADJUST_NUMERIC_ONLY_TZ_OFFSETS_WRT_DST and
302 added an explanatory comment by its #definition.
304 * Updated README.developers with the fact that zotnet/tws is going away.
306 Thu Jul 20 20:30:52 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
308 * Moved Kimmo's new "--with-hash-backup" to be output with the
309 rest of the --with options in the configure --help output. Also,
310 people did not preserve my alphabetization of the --with options
311 when they added new ones. Re-alphabetized.
313 * One more pass at README.developers now that it's clear that my
314 previously-suggested one-line autoconf-file commit can cause
315 unnecessary local makes and an out-of-sync stamp-h.in file, but
316 would not cause problems for other people using the CVS files.
318 * Ken Hornstein's SASL patch was not integrated properly with
319 Ruud's new merged mts/sendmail code. Kimmo has since fixed nmh so
320 it compiles, but according to Ken, the SASL stuff still does not
321 work. Integrating a patch from him for this.
323 * Last pass at README.developers -- Kimmo's 5-step commit was
324 overkill. You only need 3 steps, since configure.in is the only
325 autoconf file with the RCS $Id keyword.
327 * Applied Kurt J. Lidl <lidl@eng.us.uu.net>'s $MAILHOST patch:
329 I have a small patch that would be nice to be included --
330 basically, it allows the usage of the "MAILHOST" environment
331 variable, without having to have HESIOD turned on. I need
332 this functionality for my environment, where we have identical
333 /usr/local on all my machines (so I cannot just hardcode into
334 the mts.conf file), and I have multiple POP mail servers for
337 Modified inc.man to reflect that along with "pophost:" and -host,
338 $MAILHOST can now activate POP mail inclusion as well.
340 * Fixed warnings from diff on first-time install of nmh. Also
341 added 'echo's clarifying the etc file installation activities.
343 Tue Jul 18 19:36:59 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
345 * Added the answer to Dan's question in README.developers.
347 Mon Jul 17 19:10:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
349 * Clarified and made some corrections to Kimmo's README.developers
350 changes (BTW, if anyone can explain why the RCS Ids are able to cause
351 problems with the dependencies, please fill in the explanation --
352 I never encountered a problem with the old single-commit method).
354 Sat Jul 15 23:13:49 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
356 * Add configure option --with-hash-backup so the backup prefix can
357 be easily changed from "," to "#".
359 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that it works with any make.
361 * Use mkstemp in sbr/lock_file.c.
363 * Commits of autoconf-related files apparently can't all be done
364 in one shot due to RCS Ids changing when committing -- updated
367 Tue Jul 11 14:18:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
369 * Clarified post.man and send.man for those not completely up on
370 SASL terminology. "SASL encryption layers are not supported for
371 SMTP" means that encryption is supported for the authentication
372 but not for the subsequent data stream.
374 Sat Jul 8 01:36:19 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
376 * Applied Ken Hornstein <kenh@cmf.nrl.navy.mil>'s patches
377 implementing SASL support for POP3 and SMTP. If nmh is compiled
378 with SASL support, using the -sasl switch on the inc, msgchk,
379 post, and send commands will enable authentication encryption for
380 SMTP, and both authentication and data stream encryption for POP3.
382 Sat Jun 10 18:37:59 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
384 * Merged mts/sendmail functionality into mts/smtp; switching between
385 smtp and sendmail delivery method is now controlled by mts.conf.
387 * If tsort cannot deal with loops, in addition to defining tsort as
388 cat, also define lorder as echo.
390 * Removed uip/popi.c from list of sources.
392 Thu Jun 08 19:36:57 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
394 * New dtimep.lex didn't parse day names properly. Fixed. Also
395 clarified ambiguous comments preceding day_map[] array (from old
396 dtimep.lex) that probably led to the erroneous cp++ being added.
398 Wed Jun 7 20:52:33 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
400 * Added one more mkstemp invocation to uip/spost.c (which was in a
403 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to clean up permissions handling
404 and error handling in uip/inc.c.
406 Mon Jun 5 22:10:07 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
408 * Use cat instead of tsort if tsort cannot deal with loops in its
409 input (which is the case for tsort from GNU textutils).
411 Mon Jun 5 21:14:36 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
413 * If lockfile is present, and its dotlockfile program is setgid,
414 inc does not need to be setgid.
416 Sun Jun 4 21:35:40 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
418 * Added autoconf test for Miquel van Smoorenburg's liblockfile
419 library, as found on Debian systems.
421 * Added liblockfile support to sbr/lock_file.c.
423 Wed May 31 7:19:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
425 * Fixed up dtimep.lex a bit. Added back memory options for AIX to
426 increase available memory. Took out %option noyywrap, which
427 wasn't understood by AT&T lex, as well as the -i
428 case-insensitivity flag.
430 Wed May 31 07:40:45 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
432 * Added a lint target to the Makefiles and a check in autoconf
433 to determine whether lint or lclint exists on the system.
435 Fri May 30 19:21:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
437 * etc/Makefile.in was incorrectly installing mts.conf.in and
438 sendfiles.in -- fixed. Generated sendfiles script was not a
439 dependency of the `all' target, and was incorrectly included in
440 the distribution. Changed the suffix for the backed-up previous
441 versions of the etc files from the ambiguous .old to .prev. Added
442 call to diff -- only keep the .prev files around if different from
443 the newly-installed versions (intentionally didn't redirect output
444 to /dev/null so you'll notice when your changed versions are
445 getting moved aside).
447 * INSTALL never documented the etc/*.old thing. Documented the
448 new etc/*.prev thing (including a note to watch for diff output).
450 * Applied Alec Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu>'s dropsbr.c patch:
452 In the map_write routine, a call is made to map_open and this
453 call is supposed to set the "clear" variable to 0 or 1,
454 depending on whether the map file is empty or not. In
455 mh6.8.3, this worked because map_open would set "clear" by
456 calling the mbx_Xopen routine. In nmh, the code for mbx_Xopen
457 was merged into mbx_open, but the interface for mbx_open
458 doesn't support the clear variable, so that functionality was
459 lost. The map_open interface still contains "int *clear" in
460 the prototype, but never sets it.
462 My patch eliminates "clear" from the map_open interface (I
463 checked to make sure that map_write is the only client of
464 map_open). Furthermore, my patch also sets the "clear"
465 variable properly at the beginning of map_write by calling
466 fstat(). This eliminates the bug in that the value of "clear"
467 being used later in the routine was just stack garbage.
469 Having a bad value of clear causes this next bug to be
470 triggered: The fp file pointer was being opened with fdopen,
471 but in two of the three switch cases it wasn't being closed.
472 In certain cases, this was causing packf to run out of file
473 descriptors if you attempted to pack a large folder.
475 Mon May 29 7:48:15 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
477 * Moved the date parsing routines from zotnet/tws to sbr/ (and
478 tws.h to h/). Updated all source files to reflect to new location
481 * Rewrote dparsetime (in dtimep.lex -> dtimep.c) to replace the
482 old zotnet/tws/dtimep.c, dtimep.lex, lexstring.c, lexedit.c, and
483 dtimep.c-lexed. It should now work with flex (although untested
484 with lex), and requires no sed-ing. For now, I have the lexed
485 version in the distribution, so that end-users don't need to worry
486 about running it through flex/lex. I have not added back support
487 for guessing the time zone when it's not specified.
489 Sun May 28 17:44:15 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
491 * Added autoconf check for getutent().
493 * Changed uip/rcvtty.c and uip/slocal.c to use getutent() and
494 friends. Since I can only check on Linux, please check if
495 this works on other systems.
497 Sun May 28 14:58:49 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
499 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to uip/scansbr.c for more
500 checks for write failures.
502 * Unlink temporary file properly in uip/rcvtty.c.
504 * Moved viamail from bindir to libdir.
506 * Changed sendfiles into sendfiles.in, so that path to viamail
509 * Added gzip support to sendfiles.
511 * Added References header to replcomps and replgroupcomps.
513 Sun May 28 14:39:31 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
515 * Fixed m_getfld bug which caused segmentation faults when
516 incorporating messages which ended in multiple linefeeds crossing
519 Fri May 26 13:21:59 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
521 * msh has been unable to show MIME messages ever since 1.0. Alec
522 Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu> tracked down the problem to the
523 -show flag being passed to mhshow. mhshow is equivalent to the
524 old mhn -show, so we don't need the -show anymore. Removed it.
526 Fri May 12 02:51:21 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
528 * zotnet/bboards is not longer built by default. Goal is to move
529 the assorted functions in zotnet into sbr or some more logical
532 * Moved zotnet/mf to sbr, and changed mf.h references accordingly,
533 as well as Makefiles.
535 Thu May 11 02:21:34 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
537 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that both SRCS and OBJS aren't
538 seperately and redundantly defined, but so that OBJS is a
539 pattern-substituted version of SRCS with suffix .c -> .o. This
540 should make maintainability easier.
542 * Added section to MACHINES indicating what platforms nmh is known
543 to compile and work on, just to give users peace of mind, or
544 something. This is by no means complete or exhaustive, so add
545 whatever you know works.
547 Tue May 09 20:38:04 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
549 * Alphabetized Shantonu's $pop_kinds output on configure's "pop is
550 enabled" line. If POP3 is the only kind of POP enabled, say so,
551 rather than just saying "yes" (which is ambiguous).
553 * Fixed four warnings in Shantonu's new getpass.c. Needed to
554 #include <stdlib.h> for calloc(), <unistd.h> for ttyname(), and
555 "h/mh.h" for adios(). Also changed ch from char to int to get rid
556 of "comparison is always 1 due to limited range of data type" on EOF.
558 * Added steps to README.developers saying to change the version
559 number to X.Y.Z+dev. Did a little rearranging and changed the FTP
560 dir from /home/ftp to /var/ftp to reflect Doug's new machine.
562 * Changed configure.in to use gcc -Wall even without
563 --enable-debug, to prevent developers compiling optimized from
564 introducing warnings, and to give end-users a warm, fuzzy feeling
565 as they (hopefully) see no warnings come out (except perhaps on
566 the lex output file) even with -Wall.
568 * Renamed getpass() to nmh_getpass() since the prototype for
569 getpass() varies from OS to OS, and we want to _always_ use our
570 version of the function. Fixed all the callers to use
571 nmh_getpass() and added it to prototypes.h. Semi-arbitrarily
572 upped MAX_PASSWORD_LEN from 128 to 256. buf was being calloc()'d
573 and the memory leaked -- should have just been declared as static
574 char array. Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the
575 copyright message, as this version has been changed significantly
576 from the BSD version.
578 * Added "nmh-local functions to use in preference to OS versions"
579 section to README.developers (currently just says to use
580 nmh_getpass() instead of system getpass()).
582 * Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the copyright message
585 * Added mts.conf.5 page per Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s
588 This happens on solaris:
591 windex entry incorrect: mts.conf(5) not found.
592 No manual entry for mts.conf.
596 % echo ".so man5/mh-tailor.5" > mts.conf.5
598 done in the man5 directory. We need to add 'mts.conf.5' as a
599 reference sourcing mh-tailor.5.
601 Mon May 08 23:51:55 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
603 * Doug informed me that the way I had restored the "lost" version
604 histories was wrong, because `cvs checkout's of old versions of
605 nmh wouldn't work properly. It occurs to me that this could be
606 fixed by simply deleting those tags in the new-location *,v files,
607 but oh well. I'm putting everything back to the way Doug
608 originally had it. To get the old version history for a file that
609 used to be in the top directory, you'll need to "blindly" do a
610 `cvs log' there (even though you won't have a local copy of the
611 file in that directory). `cvs diff' will no longer be able to
612 diff pre-move versions vs. post-move versions -- you'll have to do
613 a lot of manual gyrations with `cvs checkout' and then use `diff'.
615 * I had alphabetized the --configure options in the --help output
616 awhile back, but Shantonu added --enable-apop just under
617 --enable-pop. Put it in alphabetical order and clarified what
618 --enable-apop does vs. --enable-pop and --with-krb4. Also changed
619 --with-mts help line from "mail transport agent" to "mail
620 transport agent/service" so the 's' in "mts" doesn't seem to come
623 * Added two steps to "releasing nmh" in README.developers. After
624 making the tarball, it's a good idea to diff the tree vs. the CVS
625 tree to make sure no files got left out, and then to chown the
626 files so that they're owned by root, preventing a Trojaning attack
627 by a malicious remote user with a UID matching yours.
629 * Changed DIFFERENCES to say that RPOP is not currently supported
630 rather than implying it by saying that APOP, KPOP, and POP[3] are.
632 Sun May 07 18:16:43 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
634 * Imported NetBSD version of getpass() and made extensive
635 revisions for compatibility with programs that pipe the password
636 to stdin, such as exmh.
638 * Removed tests for system ruserpass() which sometimes gave
639 phantom positive results. Also, bext to use internal functions if
640 we ever want to change .netrc format to something else, or access
643 Sat May 06 08:28:09 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
645 * Restored lost version histories for those moved files by doing a
646 manual `mv' in the CVSROOT on mhost. CVS badly needs a `cvs mv'
647 command so that you can move files (without having physical access
648 to the CVSROOT) without losing versioning. Put MACHINES back at
649 the top level as it needs to be read before building. Fixed DIST
650 variable in {.,docs}/Makefile.in to reflect that and to add
651 missing entry for "INSTALL" file.
653 Sat May 06 13:13:07 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
655 * Re-cleaned up nmh documentation (by moving things to docs
656 subdir) and modified Makefile & configure.in to handle the change.
658 Mon Apr 17 21:28:40 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
660 * Scott Blachowicz pointed out that the configure --help output
661 for --enable-masquerade was misleading. Clarified.
663 Mon Apr 17 19:01:00 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
665 * APOP support can be compiled in to inc and msgchk using
668 * To access an APOP host, specify -apop on the command line
669 along with any -host or -user option.
671 Fri Apr 14 23:10:44 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
673 * Upped the version number to 1.0.4+dev until the next nmh release.
675 * Added a "releasing nmh" section to README.developers, while the
676 process was fresh in my mind.
678 Fri Apr 14 18:21:34 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
680 * Added new files README.developers, ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6, and
681 ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html to DIST target in Makefile.in.
683 * Released nmh-1.0.4.
685 Tue Apr 11 21:37:03 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
687 * Applied Brian Campbell <bacam@tardis.ed.ac.uk>'s mhn.defaults.sh
690 It appears that there shouldn't be quotes around the %s in the
691 iso-8859-1 charset entry; xterm passes the remaining arguments
692 to the program, quoting them means that xterm thinks they're
693 part of the program's name.
695 This %s isn't the same as the "Insert content subtype" one from
696 mhshow-show-* -- it doesn't come from MIME headers and is safe not
699 Sun Apr 09 13:03:59 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
701 * added check in fmt_compile() to handle a single-character
702 format string. fmt_compile() depends on having an array of
703 format characters with an empty item at the end. A
704 single-character format would cause programs using this
705 function to segfault because the algorithm used to decide on
706 the length of the array mistakenly created a single-item array
707 when the format string was one character. This eventually
708 caused problems when the program attempted to test item+1
711 Thu Apr 06 21:53:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
713 * Richard Coleman threw out a lot of old MH-specific files in nmh.
714 Much of the stuff, indeed, is not worth saving, but there are
715 nuggets that are very worthwhile, and should probably be added
716 back in. Most important, IMHO, are the MH change logs, as they
717 can help answer questions like "Why is this code like this?" or
718 "How long has this been broken?" or "What was this ever used for?"
720 I've added a new file to the nmh tree called
721 ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6. It's cobbled together from the
722 mh-6.8.4/papers/mh*/MHCHANGES files. I've re-ordered the entries
723 to go from newest at the top to oldest at the bottom to match the
724 ChangeLog convention. Unfortunately there are no change logs for
725 versions of MH prior to 3 in the MH tar files available at
726 <ftp://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/mh>. Also, it appears to me that there
727 are MH-6.6 changes that aren't documented in the logs.
729 I've also added ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html. This is
730 based on mh-6.8.4/papers/changes/mh-changes.ms. The nroff format
731 and its "catman"-type output are a pain to deal with, but I was
732 loath to throw away the formatting, so I converted the file to
733 HTML. The only actual markup in the body are the "<B>" and "<U>"
734 tags, and "<" and ">" instead of '<' and '>', so it's quite
735 doable to view the file in plain ASCII mode as well. Note that
736 some of the changes this file documents as having been made in
737 MH-6.8.4 may not be present in nmh -- Richard started with 6.8.3
738 and later put in certain 6.8.4 stuff.
740 Wed Apr 05 21:09:28 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
742 * Applied Eric Schnoebelen <eric@cirr.com>'s mhshowsbr.c patch
743 fixing apparent bugs in Dan Winship's new security quoting code:
745 Since upgrading, I've been getting the following errors
746 while attempting to process some MIME messages:
748 (1) Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
753 (2) line 1/10 (END)Segmentation fault (core dumped)
755 (2) appears to be due to the testing of an unset pointer in
756 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux(). (1) appears to be caused by
757 mis-quoting a filename being handed to the shell in
758 mhshowsbr.c:show_content_aux().
760 Resolving the pointer reference issue in
761 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux() turned up a similar mis-quoting
762 problem in the routine.
764 Tue Mar 28 16:17:39 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
766 * Applied Todd.Miller@courtesan.com's patch to dropsbr.c to
767 prevent core dumping on packf. Here's the note from his message:
769 Since sizeof(buffer) == sizeof(tmpbuffer) packf will dump
770 core on a file w/o a From line with a line >= BUFSIZ.
771 I noticed this because I had a junk file in my mail
774 Fri Mar 17 11:59:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
776 * wesley.craig@umich.edu did not document his previous KPOP patch,
777 so I did so, and asked him to check what I wrote. Unfortunately
778 he didn't notice my misunderstanding of his patch. I wrote that
779 if you #define POPSERVICE "kpop", inc and msgchk will use KPOP
780 exclusively, but if you leave it as "pop3", you can use Wesley's
781 new -kpop switch on a given invocation. Instead, however, -kpop
782 turned out to be necessary on every invocation, and a KPOP user
783 complained. Applied Wesley's new patch, which makes things work
784 like I thought his original patch did. After that, did one more
785 clarifying pass to the documentation in inc.man and msgchk.man.
787 Wed Mar 15 18:45:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
789 * When I fixed the long-standing makedir() bugs in January, I had
790 the code call strtoul(..., 0), which I believed to be safe as all
791 modes specified as ASCII constants in the nmh code started with a
792 leading zero (signifying octal), which I did as it would work if
793 internal constants were ever changed to hex. Unfortunately I was
794 unaware of the "Folder-Protect:" .mh_profile entry, which
795 mh-profile.man documents as an octal-only constant, with no
796 leading zero required. I've changed the strtoul() call to an
797 atooi() call and removed the misleading leading zeroes on the
798 ASCII octal constants in the code and man pages. Also changed the
799 "Folder-Protect:" example in the man page to something more
800 interesting than a duplication of the default.
802 * When I added my --enable-masquerade option, you'll note that I
803 didn't make it --enable-nmh-masquerade. I find the --enable-nmh-*
804 options too wordy and I'm not sure why Richard went that route.
805 I've renamed them to just --enable-*, but the old versions will
806 still work as well (they just aren't advertised).
808 * Added a line to the "nmh configuration" output saying whether
811 * Added a new README.developers file. From the file:
813 This file is intended to provide a few tips for anyone doing
814 development on nmh. Developers who learn things "the hard
815 way" about the nmh codebase (as opposed to local info best
816 encoded in a comment) are encouraged to share their wisdom
819 Currently the topics are "autoconf files" and "directory structure".
821 Tue Mar 14 12:41:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
823 * Applied, after some finessing,
824 Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s --with-smtpservers patch:
826 Here's a patch that allows you to add
828 --with-smtpservers=<some.host.name>
830 to the ./configure command line to set the "servers: " line in
831 etc/mts.conf. Around here, we use "mailhost" so that all
832 machines in the current domain just talk to a central machine
833 and nothing else runs an MTA. Now, I can use
835 --with-smtpservers=mailhost
837 instead of having to remember to fix this by hand (and often
838 forgetting to do so!).
840 * Inspired by Simon's patch, added an --enable-masquerade option
841 to configure. It will set the "masquerade:" line of mts.conf.
842 You may specify a subset of the three types of masquerading, like
843 --enable-masquerade="draft_from mmailid", or leave off explicit
844 arguments to enable all three types.
846 * Alphabetized the --enable and --with options in configure.in and
847 INSTALL and added documentation of the two new options to the latter.
849 * Added new dependency for mts.conf: Makefile. If this isn't
850 done, then when you reconfigure nmh with new values for
851 --enable-masquerade or --with-smtpservers, you'll fail to get an
852 updated copy of mts.conf.
854 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtimep.lex patch:
856 It seems that some MUA's didn't handle y2k very well - ELM
857 seems to be one of them, and Ultrix's DXmail (based on MH!).
858 I've got a few emails this month that look like:
860 575 Jan 00 Xxxxxx Xxxx 3603 ...
862 22+ Jan 00 Xxx Xxxxx 1771 ...
864 The first has "15 Jan 100" as the date and the second has
865 "19 Jan 00" as the date. The following works around this so
866 that scan, show, sortm, etc work ok.
868 I put Simon's patch under the control of a new #define called
869 FIX_NON_Y2K_COMPLIANT_MUA_DATES. There's some commentary in
870 acconfig.h about when you might not want to #define it.
872 * Created new dtimep.c-lexed with Simon's change using dtimep.lex
873 lexed on Solaris 2.6. Added missing dependency in
874 zotnet/tws/Makefile.in for dtimep.c: dtimep.c-lexed.
876 * Added scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD format files.
878 Mon Mar 13 21:32:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
880 * Applied Sullivan N. Beck <sbeck@cise.ufl.edu>'s mhshow-suffix patch:
882 With the patch below, you can add lines like:
884 mhshow-suffix-application/msword: .doc
885 mhshow-suffix-application/PostScript: .ps
887 to the mhn.defaults file to append the given suffix to a
888 scratch file. This allows applications which require a
889 certain suffix to run properly.
891 * Removed -force_html from lynx entry in mhn.defaults.sh (I
892 believe older versions of lynx lack that option) and added
893 "mhshow-suffix-text/html: .html".
895 * Modified username_extension masquerading to only use the
896 extended address on generated [Resent-]From: lines and SMTP
897 envelope From:. With Neil's original implementation, nmh's global
898 idea of the username was changed, which would result in inc lying
899 and saying you had no new mail because it was looking for a
900 mailbox called, for instance, "dan-nmh" (where username was "dan"
901 and $USERNAME_EXTENSION was "-nmh").
903 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtime.c patch:
905 There's a wrap-around problem that affects the implementation
906 of Zeller's congruence in dtime.c. This causes the day-of-week
907 calculations to fail for dates after Feb 29, 2000 (probably up
908 until some year far in the future).
910 Mon Mar 06 12:20:20 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
912 * Applied Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s msh.c patch:
914 I finally tracked down the problem in msh that was causing
915 errors whenever I tried to examine a 'mmdf' style mailbox.
917 It turns out that not enough memory was being allocated with
918 calloc(), causing memory pointers to be overwritten and
921 Fri Mar 03 16:07:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
923 * Changed the new "plussed_user" option to mts.conf's
924 "masquerade:" to "username_extension" after getting feedback from
925 qmail users, who use '-' as a separator rather than '+'. Removed
926 checking of $USERPLUS variable. Now check $USERNAME_EXTENSION,
927 which needs to include the appropriate separator for your MTA
928 ('-', '+', or whatever) as its first character.
930 Thu Mar 02 23:04:30 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
932 * Added a new "boolean" type to mh.h and TRUE and FALSE constants.
934 * Added a note to DIFFERENCES stating that it's out-of-date
935 (Richard was the last one to update it) and that we should
936 consider only documenting incompatibilities with MH there.
938 * Implemented (and documented) a third kind of username
939 masquerading: "plussed user" masquerading. This one was suggested
940 by Neil Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>. It's based on sendmail's
941 "plussed user" feature, where mail sent to <user>+<string> will be
942 delivered to <user>. When it's enabled, it's controlled by the
943 $USERPLUS environment variable. How is it enabled? Well, that
946 * Renamed the "mmailid:" setting in mts.conf to "masquerade:", and
947 changed it so that rather than being a boolean, it can be set to
948 any combination of the three values "draft_from", "mmailid", and
949 "plussed_user". Thus it is now possible to enable the three types
950 of masquerading individually.
952 * Fixed a bug with "mmailid" masquerading (dating back to MH?)
953 where if it was turned on, ','s would no longer be considered
954 GECOS field delimiters.
956 Wed Mar 01 23:30:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
958 * Changed the GECOS-field '&' translation behavior to be
959 controlled by the BSD42 #define rather than GCOS_HACK, since it's
960 apparently always appropriate on OSes where BSD42 is #defined, and
961 never appropriate on any other OSes. Thanks to Kimmo Suominen for
962 responding to my "What is this code here for?" comment in mts.c
963 and explaining the feature.
965 Mon Feb 28 21:50:29 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
967 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3+dev (ideally this should be
968 done by whoever makes a release tar file, immediately after doing
971 * Applied Paul Fox <pgf-spam@foxharp.boston.ma.us>'s scansbr.c
972 patch, posted to comp.mail.mh, which he says prevents loss of mail
973 when inc'ing into a full filesystem.
975 * Changed "echo > stamp-h.in" in Makefile.in to "date > stamp-h.in"
976 so that stamp-h.in will be different each time configure.in and
977 related files are changed, making it easier to check it in (which
978 is necessary to prevent unnecessary autoconf calls).
980 * My declaration of initgroups() in slocal.c to eliminate the "no
981 prototype" warning wasn't portable (FreeBSD 3.[23] choked). Now
982 use AC_EGREP_HEADER to see where initgroups() is declared, if
985 Sun Feb 20 12:17:15 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
987 * Fix security hole in mhshowsbr.c which allowed untrusted shell
990 * Released nmh 1.0.3.
992 Thu Feb 10 10:54:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
994 * Oops. %-escapes on mhstore lines in mhn.defaults.sh should not
995 be surrounded by single quotes, as a shell is not spawned when
996 just saving files, and the filenames will end up with literal
997 quotes embedded in them.
999 Fri Feb 04 12:29:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1001 * Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
1002 got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
1003 the -help output. One theory is that they were making reference
1004 to the fact that clearly you know about the -help option since
1005 you're currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea
1006 to overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
1007 supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
1010 The other theory is that because you can say something like
1011 "mhstore -" and get "mhstore: - ambiguous. It matches" followed
1012 by the same list of switches you get with -help, they were saying
1013 you can "sorta" abbreviate "-help" as "-". You don't get the
1014 "Usage:" string, though, so it's not really the same thing.
1016 Thu Feb 03 17:52:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1018 * Applied wesley.craig@umich.edu's KPOP patches. According to him:
1020 The following patch fixes a problem with requesting a
1021 service key for a machine that has multiple 'A' records. It
1022 also makes "-kpop" a command line option, for users who
1023 would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".
1025 Did no testing of the new features, as I don't have access to a
1028 * Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
1030 * Modified INSTALL and config.h.in to reflect the new -kpop feature.
1032 Fri Jan 28 17:39:24 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1034 * All %-escapes in mhn.defaults that actually expand to something
1035 should be surrounded by single quotes. Added quotes to the ones
1036 in mhn.defaults.sh that were missing them.
1038 * Added check for lynx to write mhshow-show-text/html line in
1041 Thu Jan 27 12:22:25 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1043 * makedir() had multiple bugs dating back to MH. An octal
1044 constant was apparently being interpreted as decimal, resulting in
1045 directories with no user read or execute permissions, making
1046 nested directory creation fail. And there wasn't even an
1047 _attempt_ to set desired permissions (e.g. from "Folder-Protect:"
1048 in .mh_profile) on the outer directories of a nested directory.
1050 * A second `make install' would always fail because the check for
1051 whether mh_profile.5 existed was written incorrectly.
1053 Wed Jan 26 02:22:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1055 * Added documentation on both types of masquerading to post's man
1058 Tue Jan 25 22:58:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1060 * Doug's portability fix of my setgid inc autodetection had a
1061 caching bug -- if you re-ran configure, uip/Makefile would be
1062 corrupted, and installation would bomb out on OSes where inc needs
1065 * Implemented a new kind of email address masquerading. Usually,
1066 when a user writes a custom "From:" header in a draft, nmh uses it
1067 rather than generating one. However, the user's true address is
1068 used in the SMTP envelope "From:" and is revealed in the "Sender:"
1069 header. Now, when mmailid is set to non-zero, the envelope
1070 "From:" uses the address specified in the draft "From:" header,
1071 and there is no "Sender:" header. This is useful when sending on
1072 behalf of a remote POP3 account or when remote mail robots
1073 incorrectly use the envelope "From:" in preference to the body
1074 "From:". This processing has only been implemented for post, not
1075 for the undocumented spost (which was already missing some "From:"
1076 processing that post has).
1078 Mon Jan 24 22:26:06 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1080 * Got rid of the rest of the gcc -Wall warnings that I didn't have
1081 time for on 1999-07-15 (and, it would seem, some new ones people
1082 introduced since then). The primary ones were the warnings that
1083 default prototypes were being used for [v]snprintf() and
1084 str[n]casecmp(). As of right now, there are _no_ compilation
1085 warnings except on dtimep.c-lexed (at least under AIX 4.1.5 and
1088 Sun Jan 2 23:42:18 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1090 * Move mhtest from bindir to libdir.
1092 * Move sendfiles from libdir to bindir.
1094 * Updated sendfiles manpage to reflect this change.
1096 * Added documentation for -build and -file switches to repl and
1097 forw manpages (patch from Peter Maydell).
1099 * Fixed interaction between specifying -cc in profile and -group on
1102 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1104 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
1105 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
1106 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
1109 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1111 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
1112 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
1113 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
1114 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
1115 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
1116 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).
1118 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1120 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
1122 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1124 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
1125 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
1126 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
1127 caught again. This works for now.
1129 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
1131 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1133 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
1134 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
1136 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1138 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
1139 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
1141 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
1143 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
1145 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1147 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
1148 changes. Both need more cleanup.
1150 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1152 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
1153 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
1154 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
1155 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
1156 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
1159 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1161 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
1162 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
1163 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
1165 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
1166 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
1169 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1171 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
1172 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
1173 to a directory on another device with more free space.
1175 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1177 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
1178 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
1180 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1182 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
1185 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
1186 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
1188 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
1189 macros, regardless of platform.
1191 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
1192 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1194 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
1195 with x-conversions=gzip.
1197 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1199 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
1202 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
1203 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
1204 implicit definition of ioctl().
1206 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
1207 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
1208 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
1209 want to mess with them.
1211 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1213 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
1214 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
1216 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
1217 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
1219 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
1220 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
1221 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
1223 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
1224 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
1225 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
1227 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
1228 function initgroups.
1230 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
1233 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
1234 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
1237 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
1238 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
1241 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
1242 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
1246 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1248 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
1249 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
1250 preventing compilation on at least linux.
1252 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
1253 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
1255 Thu Sep 09 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1257 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
1259 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
1260 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
1261 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
1262 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
1264 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
1265 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
1267 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1269 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
1271 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1273 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
1274 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
1276 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1278 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
1279 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
1281 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
1282 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
1283 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
1284 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
1286 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
1287 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
1289 Sat Jun 09 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1291 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
1292 substitute it for mktemp if available.
1294 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1296 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
1297 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
1300 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
1302 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
1304 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
1306 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
1307 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
1309 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
1310 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
1311 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
1313 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
1314 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
1315 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
1317 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
1318 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
1319 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1321 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
1322 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
1325 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
1326 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1328 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
1329 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1331 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
1332 <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1334 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
1335 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
1336 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1338 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
1339 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1341 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
1342 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
1343 <elleron@servtech.com>.
1345 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
1346 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
1349 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
1350 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
1352 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
1353 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
1354 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
1355 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
1357 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
1358 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
1360 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1364 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
1365 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
1366 would not be changed.
1368 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
1369 one from the Apache web server.
1371 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
1372 (this should have been done a long time ago).
1374 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
1375 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
1376 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
1378 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
1380 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
1382 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
1383 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
1386 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
1387 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
1388 removes a bad race condition.
1390 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
1393 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
1394 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
1395 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
1397 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
1398 sequence information.
1400 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
1401 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
1403 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
1406 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
1409 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
1411 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
1412 interpret 034 as octal.
1414 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
1416 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
1417 mhstore, and mhbuild.
1419 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
1420 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
1422 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
1423 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
1425 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
1426 in the c_cefile structure when building.
1428 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
1429 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
1431 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
1432 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
1433 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
1435 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
1436 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
1437 and mhshow. Updated man pages
1439 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
1441 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
1443 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
1444 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
1447 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
1449 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
1450 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
1452 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
1453 header field information.
1455 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
1456 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
1458 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
1459 values when parsing a content.
1461 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
1462 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
1464 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
1465 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
1467 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
1468 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1470 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
1471 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
1473 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
1475 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
1477 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
1479 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
1481 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
1482 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
1485 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
1486 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
1488 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
1489 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
1490 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
1491 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
1492 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
1493 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
1496 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1498 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
1499 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
1500 buffer length checks for this parameter.
1502 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
1503 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
1505 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1507 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
1508 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
1509 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
1510 of the limits on the length of command lines.
1512 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
1513 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
1516 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
1517 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
1518 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
1519 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
1522 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1524 * Released nmh-0.27.
1526 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
1527 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
1529 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
1530 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
1531 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
1532 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
1535 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
1536 mhbuild returns an error.
1538 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
1539 rename the draft file.
1541 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
1542 use a global variable.
1544 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
1545 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
1547 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
1548 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
1550 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
1551 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
1552 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
1554 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
1555 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
1557 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
1558 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
1561 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
1562 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
1565 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
1566 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
1568 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
1569 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
1570 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
1572 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
1573 to new function output_content_folder.
1575 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
1576 new function output_content_file.
1578 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
1579 to new function parse_format_string.
1581 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
1582 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
1583 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
1584 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
1586 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
1587 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
1588 message/external file from ftp.
1590 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
1591 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
1592 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
1594 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
1595 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
1598 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
1601 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
1602 new file mhstoresbr.c
1604 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
1607 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
1608 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
1610 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
1611 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
1613 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
1614 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
1615 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
1617 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
1619 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
1621 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
1622 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
1625 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
1626 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
1628 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
1631 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
1633 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1635 * Released nmh-0.26.
1637 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
1638 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
1639 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
1640 is still the same (dashstuffing).
1642 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
1643 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
1644 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
1645 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
1646 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
1648 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
1649 But it is not on by default.
1651 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
1652 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
1654 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
1656 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
1658 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
1660 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
1662 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
1663 number of the "cur" message when packing.
1665 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1667 * Released nmh-0.25.
1669 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
1670 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
1671 uses the original name of the library.
1673 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
1674 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
1677 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
1678 list_content and list_debug.
1680 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
1682 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
1683 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.

1687 * Released nmh-0.24.
1689 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
1691 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
1692 are given, that order doesn't matter.
1694 * Fix bug in seq_list.c when realloc'ing for
1695 large sequence line.
1697 1998-02-23 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1699 * Released nmh-0.23.
1701 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
1703 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
1704 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan
1705 content, decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary
1706 string). I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
1708 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
1709 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
1712 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
1714 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
1716 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
1718 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
1719 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
1721 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
1722 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.
1724 * Add note to MACHINES file that on Linux, configure
1725 doesn't find the functions sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
1727 * Fix configuration for machines that don't have (or find)
1728 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
1730 1998-02-11 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1732 * Released nmh-0.22.
1734 * Add a configure check for sigsetjmp. Add some conditional
1735 #define's in h/signals.h in case it's not found.
1737 * Added additional notes about -auto switch in mhn man page.
1739 * Added note about MM_CHARSET environment variable to
1740 mh-profile(5) man page.
1742 * Fix signal problem in mhn.c (change setjmp/longjmp to
1743 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp).
1745 1998-02-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1747 * Released nmh-0.22-pre1.
1749 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
1750 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
1752 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
1754 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
1755 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
1756 entry point for parsing MIME files.
1758 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
1759 source message on the standard input.
1761 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
1763 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
1764 rather than -rfc934mode.
1766 * Fix mhbuild, so that Content-Description and RFC-822 comments
1767 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
1770 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
1771 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).
1773 * Restore HP specific code to zotnet/tws/lexstring.c. Apparently
1776 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1778 * Released nmh-0.21.
1780 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
1781 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.
1783 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what transfer
1786 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what character set
1787 to use for text contents.
1789 * Removed old hpux specific code from zotnet/tws/lexstring.c
1791 1998-02-02 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1793 * Released nmh-0.21-pre2.
1795 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
1797 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
1798 header fields as per RFC-2047.
1800 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
1801 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
1802 spaces between encoded word are.
1804 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
1806 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
1807 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
1809 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
1810 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
1811 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
1813 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
1815 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
1816 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
1818 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.

1822 * check_charset() now accepts US-ASCII as a subset of any
1823 ISO-8859-X character set.
1825 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
1828 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
1829 permissions, not write permissions.
1831 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
1832 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
1834 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
1837 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1839 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
1841 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
1842 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
1844 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
1845 message contains valid character set.
1847 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
1848 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
1850 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
1851 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
1853 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
1854 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
1855 between an encoded word and normal text.
1857 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
1858 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
1860 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
1861 as a RFC-2047 header field.
1863 * The command install-mh now recognizes the switches -version
1866 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
1867 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
1870 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
1871 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
1873 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
1874 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
1876 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
1878 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1880 * Released nmh-0.20.
1882 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
1884 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.
1886 * Changed the default format file for mhl (mhl.format) to
1887 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
1888 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
1890 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
1891 and the To: line was missing.
1893 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
1895 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1897 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
1899 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
1900 watch the POP transaction.
1902 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
1903 first, and use it if available.
1905 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
1906 first, and use it if available.
1908 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1910 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
1912 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
1913 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
1914 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
1917 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
1918 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
1919 returns the state FLDPLUS.
1921 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
1922 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
1925 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
1927 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
1928 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
1930 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
1932 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
1933 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
1935 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
1936 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
1937 message to which you are replying.
1939 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
1940 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
1941 making group replies.
1943 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
1945 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1947 * Released nmh-0.19.
1949 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
1950 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
1952 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
1953 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
1954 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
1955 to the end of the man page.
1957 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
1958 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
1959 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
1960 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
1961 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
1962 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
1964 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
1967 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
1968 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
1969 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
1971 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
1972 the next available number above the message number you wish
1975 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
1976 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
1978 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
1979 file sbr/seq_print.c
1981 * flist will now update the current folder.
1983 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
1984 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
1985 but now undocumented.
1987 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
1990 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
1991 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
1993 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
1995 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
1996 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
1998 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2000 * Released nmh-0.18.
2002 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
2003 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
2004 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
2006 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
2007 retains the public/private status of sequences.
2009 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
2010 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
2011 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
2012 previous public/private status.
2014 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
2017 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
2020 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
2021 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
2022 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
2024 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
2025 take option to determine whether it should get current
2026 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
2027 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
2029 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
2031 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
2032 wait for stopped processes.
2034 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
2035 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
2037 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2039 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
2041 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
2042 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
2044 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
2045 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
2047 * Change the way that memory for message status is
2048 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
2049 the folder/message structure. This required changing
2050 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
2052 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
2055 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
2058 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
2060 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
2061 the debugging output.
2063 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
2064 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
2066 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2068 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
2070 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
2071 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
2073 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
2075 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
2076 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
2077 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
2078 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
2079 in the given sequence.
2081 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
2082 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
2083 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
2084 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
2085 subdirectories of a given directory.
2087 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
2088 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
2089 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
2091 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
2092 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
2094 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
2096 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
2099 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
2100 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
2101 fields are now calculated at runtime.
2103 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
2104 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
2105 are calculated at runtime.
2107 Sun Nov 30 19:14:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2109 * Released nmh-0.18-pre2.
2111 * Add paragraph to man page for install-mh and to INSTALL file
2112 about checking for global mh.profile.
2114 * Renamed m_find() to context_find().
2115 Renamed m_replace() to context_replace().
2116 Renamed m_delete() to context_del().
2117 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
2118 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
2119 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
2121 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
2122 adding message to folder itself.
2124 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
2125 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
2126 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
2129 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
2130 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
2133 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
2134 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
2135 is the same as the direct smtp code).
2137 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
2138 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
2140 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
2141 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
2142 code to use it yet).
2144 Thu Nov 13 18:42:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2146 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.
2148 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never
2149 called with a value larger than 30 mintues.
2151 * Fixed race condition in rmm and refile, so that
2152 context is updated before external rmmproc is called.
2154 * Removed all the OVERHEAD code.
2156 * Move code to add message to folder from refile.c
2159 Fri Jul 25 19:39:29 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2161 * Did some rearranging of the internals of inc.c.
2163 * Make -inplace the default for anno, forw, dist, and repl.
2165 * Changed --enable-smtp to --with-mts={smtp,sendmail}
2167 * Created new directory mts/sendmail for direct sendmail
2168 interface (although it currently still uses SMTP).
2170 * Removed all the TMA (trusted mail agent) code
2172 * Removed all the TTYD (terminal access daemon) code
2174 * Removed all the MF (uucp filtering) code.
2176 * Removed all the code for BERK.
2178 * Removed all the code for stand-alone delivery (MHMTS).
2180 * Split the file mts/sendmail/smail.c into sendmail.c and
2181 smtp.c. Changed the name of the directory to mts/smtp.
2183 * Changed autoconf to use @sysconfdir@ for location of
2184 configuration files.
2186 * Changed #define in mhn.c from FTP to BUILTIN_FTP.
2188 Mon Jul 21 03:22:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2190 * Released nmh-0.17.
2192 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
2194 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
2195 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
2197 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
2200 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
2201 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
2203 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
2204 number of refiled message.
2206 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
2208 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
2209 for return value of wait().
2211 * Change configure to also check /bin for "more".
2213 Sat Jul 12 00:02:23 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2215 * Released nmh-0.16.
2217 Mon Jun 23 20:13:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2219 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
2221 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
2222 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
2223 deal with binary messages, yet).
2225 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
2227 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
2229 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
2230 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
2231 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
2232 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
2233 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
2234 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
2236 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
2237 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
2239 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
2240 From MH-6.8.4 patch.
2242 * Fix double free of ctinfo in user_content when using
2243 #forw with single message. From John MacMillan (and
2246 * Changed -mhnproc switch for show, to -showmimeproc.
2248 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".
2250 * Added "mime" option to "whatnow", which calls the program
2251 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
2254 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
2257 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
2259 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
2260 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
2261 which used unsigned chars by default.
2263 Sat Jun 21 01:21:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2265 * Released nmh-0.15.
2267 * Added new form "scan.unseen" to distribution. It marks messages
2268 which are in any sequence in Unseen-Sequence.
2270 * Do some rearranging of date/time code in zotnet/tws/dtime.c
2272 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
2274 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
2277 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
2278 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
2279 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
2281 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
2282 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
2284 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
2286 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
2287 they conflict with defines on AIX.
2289 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
2290 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
2291 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
2292 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
2294 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
2295 and put in own subroutine.
2297 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,

2450 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
2452 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
2453 folder/message structure when done with folder.
2455 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is

2518 * Released nmh-0.08.
2520 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
2521 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of

2529 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
2532 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
2533 rather than mmdf format.
2535 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
2536 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
2537 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with

2547 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2548 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2549 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
2551 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2552 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to

2555 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2557 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
2558 can still easily change this in config.h).
2560 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
2561 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
2562 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
2564 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2566 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather

2581 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
2583 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
2584 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
2587 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
2588 built-in FTP client in mhn.

2601 * Released nmh-0.06.
2603 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
2604 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
2606 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
2607 many such machines around anymore.
2609 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
2610 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
2612 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
2613 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
2615 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2617 * Check lex generated file in zotnet/tws and use
2618 pre-generated version if necessary.
2620 * Released nmh-0.05.
2622 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
2623 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
2624 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
2625 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
2627 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
2628 be linked in one pass.
2630 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2632 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
2633 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
2635 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2637 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
2639 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2641 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
2642 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
2643 become the current folder.
2645 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2647 * Released nmh-0.04.

2652 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2654 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
2655 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
2656 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
2658 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2660 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
2661 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
2663 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2665 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
2666 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
2669 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
2670 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
2672 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2674 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
2675 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
2676 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
2677 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
2678 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
2679 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
2681 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2683 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
2684 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
2686 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
2687 a file (currently need to specify full path).
2689 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2691 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
2692 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
2694 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2696 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
2697 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
2698 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
2700 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2702 * Released nmh-0.03.
2704 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
2705 .mh_sequence file existed.
2707 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
2708 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
2710 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
2711 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
2714 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2716 * Changed flist option -unseen to -[no]all. Cleaned up
2719 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2721 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
2722 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
2723 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
2725 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2727 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
2728 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
2729 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
2731 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2733 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL
2734 and allocate its own buffer. Borrowed from zsh.
2736 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
2738 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2740 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
2741 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
2742 directory from where the source code is located.
2744 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2746 * Released nmh-0.02.

2766 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
2767 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
2768 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
2769 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
2770 rather than in script.
2772 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2774 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
2776 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with

2781 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
2782 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
2784 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
2785 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
2786 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
2787 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop

2807 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
2808 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
2810 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2812 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
2813 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
2814 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
2815 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
2816 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
2817 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
2819 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2821 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
2823 * Released nmh-0.01.

2826 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
2827 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
2830 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2832 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
2835 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2837 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
2838 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
2840 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2842 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
2843 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
2844 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
2845 script to find_program.
2847 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2849 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
2850 speed up -recurse option.
2852 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
2853 yet, but it compiles :-)
2855 * Changed default location for install to
2856 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
2857 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
2858 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
2861 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
2862 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
2863 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
