1 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
3 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
4 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
5 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
8 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
10 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
11 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
12 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
13 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
14 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
15 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).

21 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
23 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
24 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
25 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
26 caught again. This works for now.
28 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
30 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
32 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
33 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
35 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
37 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
38 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
40 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
42 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
44 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
46 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
47 changes. Both need more cleanup.
49 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
51 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
52 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
53 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
54 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
55 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
58 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
60 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
61 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
62 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
64 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
65 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
68 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
70 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
71 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
72 to a directory on another device with more free space.
74 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
76 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
77 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
79 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
81 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
84 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
85 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
87 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
88 macros, regardless of platform.
90 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
91 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
93 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
94 with x-conversions=gzip.
96 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
98 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
101 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
102 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
103 implicit definition of ioctl().
105 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
106 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
107 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
108 want to mess with them.
110 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
112 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
113 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
115 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
116 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
118 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
119 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
120 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
122 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
123 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
124 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
126 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
129 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
132 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
133 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
136 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
137 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
140 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
141 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
145 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
147 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
148 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
149 preventing compilation on at least linux.
151 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
152 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
154 Thu Sep 9 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
156 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
158 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
159 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
160 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
161 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
163 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
164 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
166 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
168 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
170 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
172 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
173 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
175 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
177 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
178 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
180 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
181 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
182 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
183 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
185 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
186 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
188 Sat Jun 9 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
190 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
191 substitute it for mktemp if available.
193 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
195 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
196 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
199 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
201 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
203 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
205 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
206 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
208 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
209 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
210 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
212 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
213 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
214 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
216 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
217 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
218 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
220 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
221 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
224 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
225 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
227 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
228 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
230 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
233 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
234 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
235 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
237 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
238 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
240 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
241 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
242 <elleron@servtech.com>.
244 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
245 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
248 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
249 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
251 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
252 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
253 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
254 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
256 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
257 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
259 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
263 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
264 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
265 would not be changed.
267 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
268 one from the Apache web server.
270 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
271 (this should have been done a long time ago).
273 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
274 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
275 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
277 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
279 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
281 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
282 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
285 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
286 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
287 removes a bad race condition.
289 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
292 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
293 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
294 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
296 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
297 sequence information.
299 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
300 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
302 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
305 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
308 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
310 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
311 interpret 034 as octal.
313 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
315 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
316 mhstore, and mhbuild.
318 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
319 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
321 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
322 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
324 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
325 in the c_cefile structure when building.
327 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
328 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
330 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
331 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
332 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
334 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
335 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
336 and mhshow. Updated man pages
338 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
340 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
342 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
343 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
346 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
348 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
349 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
351 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
352 header field information.
354 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
355 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
357 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
358 values when parsing a content.
360 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
361 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
363 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
364 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
366 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
367 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
369 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
370 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
372 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
374 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
376 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
378 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
380 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
381 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
384 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
385 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
387 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
388 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
389 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
390 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
391 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
392 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
395 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
397 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
398 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
399 buffer length checks for this parameter.
401 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
402 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
404 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
406 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
407 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
408 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
409 of the limits on the length of command lines.
411 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
412 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
415 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
416 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
417 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
418 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
421 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
425 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
426 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
428 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
429 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
430 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
431 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
434 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
435 mhbuild returns an error.
437 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
438 rename the draft file.
440 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
441 use a global variable.
443 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
444 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
446 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
447 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
449 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
450 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
451 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
453 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
454 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
456 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
457 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
460 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
461 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
464 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
465 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
467 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
468 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
469 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
471 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
472 to new function output_content_folder.
474 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
475 new function output_content_file.
477 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
478 to new function parse_format_string.
480 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
481 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
482 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
483 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
485 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
486 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
487 message/external file from ftp.
489 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
490 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
491 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
493 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
494 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
497 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
500 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
501 new file mhstoresbr.c
503 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
506 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
507 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
509 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
510 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
512 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
513 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
514 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
516 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
518 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
520 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
521 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
524 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
525 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
527 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
530 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
532 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
536 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
537 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
538 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
539 is still the same (dashstuffing).
541 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
542 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
543 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
544 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
545 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
547 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
548 But it is not on by default.
550 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
551 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
553 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
555 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
557 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
559 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
561 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
562 number of the "cur" message when packing.
564 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
568 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
569 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
570 uses the original name of the library.
572 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
573 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
576 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
577 list_content and list_debug.
579 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
581 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
582 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.
584 1998-02-27 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
588 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
590 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
591 are given, that order doesn't matter.
593 * Fix bug in seq_list.c when realloc'ing for
596 1998-02-23 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
600 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
602 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
603 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan content,
604 decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary string).
605 I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
607 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
608 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
611 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
613 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
615 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
617 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
618 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
620 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
621 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.
623 * Add note to MACHINES file that on Linux, configure
624 doesn't find the functions sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
626 * Fix configuration for machines that don't have (or find)
627 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
629 1998-02-11 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
633 * Add a configure check for sigsetjmp. Add some conditional
634 #define's in h/signals.h in case it's not found.
636 * Added additional notes about -auto switch in mhn man page.
638 * Added note about MM_CHARSET environment variable to
639 mh-profile(5) man page.
641 * Fix signal problem in mhn.c (change setjmp/longjmp to
642 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp).
644 1998-02-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
646 * Released nmh-0.22-pre1.
648 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
649 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
651 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
653 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
654 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
655 entry point for parsing MIME files.
657 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
658 source message on the standard input.
660 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
662 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
663 rather than -rfc934mode.
665 * Fix mhbuild, so that Content-Description and RFC-822 comments
666 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
669 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
670 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).
672 * Restore HP specific code to zotnet/tws/lexstring.c. Apparently
675 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
679 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
680 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.
682 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what transfer
685 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what character set
686 to use for text contents.
688 * Removed old hpux specific code from zotnet/tws/lexstring.c
690 1998-02-02 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
692 * Released nmh-0.21-pre2.
694 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
696 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
697 header fields as per RFC-2047.
699 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
700 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
701 spaces between encoded word are.
703 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
705 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
706 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
708 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
709 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
710 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
712 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
714 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
715 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
717 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.
719 * Added support for %(decode) to fmtdump.c.
721 * check_charset() now accepts US-ASCII as a subset of any
722 ISO-8859-X character set.
724 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
727 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
728 permissions, not write permissions.
730 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
731 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
733 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
736 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
738 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
740 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
741 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
743 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
744 message contains valid character set.
746 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
747 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
749 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
750 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
752 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
753 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
754 between an encoded word and normal text.
756 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
757 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
759 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
760 as a RFC-2047 header field.
762 * The command install-mh now recognizes the switches -version
765 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
766 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
769 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
770 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
772 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
773 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
775 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
777 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
781 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
783 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.
785 * Changed the default format file for mhl (mhl.format) to
786 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
787 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
789 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
790 and the To: line was missing.
792 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
794 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
796 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
798 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
799 watch the POP transaction.
801 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
802 first, and use it if available.
804 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
805 first, and use it if available.
807 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
809 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
811 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
812 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
813 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
816 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
817 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
818 returns the state FLDPLUS.
820 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
821 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
824 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
826 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
827 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
829 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
831 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
832 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
834 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
835 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
836 message to which you are replying.
838 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
839 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
840 making group replies.
842 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
844 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
848 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
849 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
851 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
852 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
853 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
854 to the end of the man page.
856 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
857 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
858 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
859 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
860 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
861 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
863 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
866 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
867 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
868 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
870 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
871 the next available number above the message number you wish
874 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
875 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
877 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
880 * flist will now update the current folder.
882 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
883 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
884 but now undocumented.
886 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
889 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
890 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
892 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
894 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
895 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
897 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
901 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
902 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
903 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
905 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
906 retains the public/private status of sequences.
908 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
909 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
910 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
911 previous public/private status.
913 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
916 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
919 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
920 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
921 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
923 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
924 take option to determine whether it should get current
925 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
926 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
928 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
930 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
931 wait for stopped processes.
933 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
934 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
936 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
938 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
940 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
941 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
943 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
944 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
946 * Change the way that memory for message status is
947 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
948 the folder/message structure. This required changing
949 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
951 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
954 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
957 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
959 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
960 the debugging output.
962 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
963 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
965 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
967 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
969 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
970 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
972 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
974 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
975 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
976 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
977 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
978 in the given sequence.
980 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
981 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
982 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
983 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
984 subdirectories of a given directory.
986 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
987 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
988 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
990 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
991 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
993 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
995 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
998 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
999 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
1000 fields are now calculated at runtime.
1002 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
1003 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
1004 are calculated at runtime.
1006 Sun Nov 30 19:14:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1008 * Released nmh-0.18-pre2.
1010 * Add paragraph to man page for install-mh and to INSTALL file
1011 about checking for global mh.profile.
1013 * Renamed m_find() to context_find().
1014 Renamed m_replace() to context_replace().
1015 Renamed m_delete() to context_del().
1016 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
1017 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
1018 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
1020 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
1021 adding message to folder itself.
1023 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
1024 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
1025 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
1028 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
1029 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
1032 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
1033 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
1034 is the same as the direct smtp code).
1036 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
1037 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
1039 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
1040 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
1041 code to use it yet).
1043 Thu Nov 13 18:42:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1045 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.
1047 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never
1048 called with a value larger than 30 mintues.
1050 * Fixed race condition in rmm and refile, so that
1051 context is updated before external rmmproc is called.
1053 * Removed all the OVERHEAD code.
1055 * Move code to add message to folder from refile.c
1058 Fri Jul 25 19:39:29 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1060 * Did some rearranging of the internals of inc.c.
1062 * Make -inplace the default for anno, forw, dist, and repl.
1064 * Changed --enable-smtp to --with-mts={smtp,sendmail}
1066 * Created new directory mts/sendmail for direct sendmail
1067 interface (although it currently still uses SMTP).
1069 * Removed all the TMA (trusted mail agent) code
1071 * Removed all the TTYD (terminal access daemon) code
1073 * Removed all the MF (uucp filtering) code.
1075 * Removed all the code for BERK.
1077 * Removed all the code for stand-alone delivery (MHMTS).
1079 * Split the file mts/sendmail/smail.c into sendmail.c and
1080 smtp.c. Changed the name of the directory to mts/smtp.
1082 * Changed autoconf to use @sysconfdir@ for location of
1083 configuration files.
1085 * Changed #define in mhn.c from FTP to BUILTIN_FTP.
1087 Mon Jul 21 03:22:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1089 * Released nmh-0.17.
1091 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
1093 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
1094 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
1096 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
1099 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
1100 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
1102 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
1103 number of refiled message.
1105 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
1107 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
1108 for return value of wait().
1110 * Change configure to also check /bin for "more".
1112 Sat Jul 12 00:02:23 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1114 * Released nmh-0.16.
1116 Mon Jun 23 20:13:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1118 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
1120 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
1121 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
1122 deal with binary messages, yet).
1124 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
1126 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
1128 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
1129 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
1130 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
1131 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
1132 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
1133 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
1135 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
1136 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
1138 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
1139 From MH-6.8.4 patch.
1141 * Fix double free of ctinfo in user_content when using
1142 #forw with single message. From John MacMillan (and
1145 * Changed -mhnproc switch for show, to -showmimeproc.
1147 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".
1149 * Added "mime" option to "whatnow", which calls the program
1150 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
1153 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
1156 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
1158 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
1159 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
1160 which used unsigned chars by default.
1162 Sat Jun 21 01:21:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1164 * Released nmh-0.15.
1166 * Added new form "scan.unseen" to distribution. It marks messages

1171 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
1173 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
1176 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
1177 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
1178 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
1180 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
1181 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
1183 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
1185 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
1186 they conflict with defines on AIX.
1188 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
1189 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
1190 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
1191 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
1193 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
1194 and put in own subroutine.
1196 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
1197 and put in own subroutine.
1199 * Moved code to remove messages from folder into own
1200 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and
1201 refile.c to use new routine.
1203 Fri May 16 06:09:31 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1205 * Renamed m_seqok to seq_nameok.
1207 * Changed m_setunseen, msh, mshcmds, flist, and scan to use
1210 * Changed m_seqflag to return the number of a sequence rather
1211 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
1212 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
1214 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
1217 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before
1218 adding message to sequence.
1220 * Renamed function m_setvis to m_setunseen, and renamed
1221 corresponding file in sbr.
1223 * Renamed function m_setseq to m_setprev, and renamed corresponding
1226 * Changed mark.c and pick.c to use m_seqaddsel and m_seqdelsel.
1228 * Added new function m_seqdelsel to m_seqdel.c, which deletes
1229 all selected messages from a sequence.
1231 * Added new function m_seqaddsel to m_seqadd.c, which adds all
1232 selected messages to a sequence.
1234 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,
1237 Thu May 15 00:53:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1239 * Renamed function pack_folder to m_packfolder, and moved it
1240 from uip/folder.c into its own file sbr/m_packfolder.c
1242 Wed May 14 23:38:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1244 * Changed function m_gmsg to m_readfolder. Renamed file

1254 * Released nmh-0.14.
1256 * Comment out configure test and code for tgetent to allocate its
1257 own termcap buffer when passed a NULL argument.
1259 Sat Apr 26 03:46:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1261 * Added new options `-checkmime', `-nocheckmime', and `-mhnproc'
1262 to show. Restructured code to handle options to various
1263 `procs' better. Deprecated `-noshowproc' option and NOMHNPROC
1264 environment variable.
1266 * Added new man page `mh-draft' which documents the
1267 draft folder facility in nmh.
1269 * Renamed fmtsbr.h to fmt_scan.h. Renamed fmtcompile.h
1272 * split fmtsbr.c into fmt_scan.c and fmt_new.c. Renamed

1276 * `send -help' wasn't showing the -(no)mime and -split
1279 Fri Apr 25 02:50:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1281 * Released nmh-0.13.
1283 * Changed mhpath so it doesn't abort if a message sequence
1284 such as "mhpath all" expands to more than 1000 messages.
1285 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
1286 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
1289 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
1290 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
1292 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1294 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if
1295 necessary. So `folders' can now handle more than 300 folders.
1297 Tue Apr 22 14:01:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1299 * Change configure to use a compile check to see if the tm struct
1300 has tm_gmtoff, rather than using egrep.
1302 Mon Apr 21 02:19:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1304 * Released nmh-0.12.
1306 * Had set_exists and unset_exists macros backwards.

1310 Thu Apr 10 02:39:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1312 * Added documentation to mh-profile.man about the various
1313 `procs' (mhlproc, showproc, lproc, etc...).
1315 * Replace the bit twiddling for SELECTED, UNSEEN, and
1316 mp->attrstats with macros.

1324 * Merge Linux patch sent in by Michel Oosterhof (original
1325 patch from bsa@kf8nh.wariat.org).
1327 * Document an undocumented MH feature. mhn -form mhl.null
1328 will suppress the display of the message header.
1330 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
1332 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c
1333 and mshcmds.c, rather than hard coding in /bin/cat.
1335 * Add mhnproc to the list of `procs' in mh-profile.man.
1337 * Add configure test for lorder and tsort commands.
1339 * Commented out the padding in the `msgs` struct in h/mh.h
1341 * Change m_gmsg.c to allocate elements to the `info' array by
1342 500 elements at a time (rather than MAXFOLDERS / 5).
1344 * Add note to man page for mhmail that zero length messages are
1345 not sent. Need to use -body "" to send empty messages.
1347 * zotnet/mts/mts.c : compare character with '\0', not NULL.
1349 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
1351 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
1352 folder/message structure when done with folder.
1354 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is
1355 defined even if message is missing "From " line.
1357 Mon Mar 31 03:37:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1359 * Released nmh-0.10.

1366 Thu Mar 20 03:21:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1368 * Reversed previous decision to retain "From " lines in slocal.
1369 The "From " line is now removed from all messages.
1371 * inc now saves the date from the "From " envelope in the
1372 Delivery-Date header for all messages.
1374 * sbr/m_getfld.c: Clean up processing of Return-Path and
1375 Delivery-Date from the "From " envelope.
1377 Mon Mar 17 19:03:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1379 * client.c: cast iaddr to int before comparing return value
1380 of inet_addr with NOTOK.
1382 Tue Mar 11 04:38:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1384 * Grep test for signal names was failing on some OS'es because
1385 of missing tabs in regex.
1387 Sat Mar 8 01:58:22 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1389 * Released nmh-0.09.
1391 * Move config files and format files to *.old before installing.

1407 * ruserpass.c : removed conflicting prototypes.
1409 * rcvtty.c : Fixed rcvtty to obey terminal permissions granted

1412 Mon Mar 3 00:18:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1414 * rcvtty.c : Changed to use #define UTMP_FILE (if exists) rather
1415 than hard coded "/etc/utmp".
1417 * Released nmh-0.08.
1419 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
1420 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of
1421 locking database itself.
1423 Thu Feb 27 05:28:09 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1425 * Added slocal action `mmdf' to deliver to a file in mmdf format.
1427 * Changed the slocal actions `file' and `>' to always deliver in
1428 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
1431 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
1432 rather than mmdf format.
1434 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
1435 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
1436 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
1437 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
1439 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
1441 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1443 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
1446 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
1447 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
1448 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
1450 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
1451 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
1452 rcvpack so you can choose the preferred format.
1454 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1456 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
1457 can still easily change this in config.h).
1459 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
1460 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
1461 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
1463 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1465 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather
1466 than tzset and external timezone variable.
1468 Thu Feb 13 00:35:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1470 * Fixed typo in ruserpass.c in the variable toktabs.
1472 * When ruserpass was added to LIBOBJS, it was missing
1475 * Released nmh-0.07.
1477 Tue Feb 11 01:29:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1479 * Add check to configure, so that if ruserpass, or _ruserpass
1480 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
1482 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
1483 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
1486 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
1487 built-in FTP client in mhn.
1489 * Added configure check for ushort and ulong. Change code
1490 to use ushort/ulong rather than u_short/u_long.
1492 * A couple of small cleanups in locking code.
1494 * Added configure check for gmtoff element in struct tm.
1496 * Added configure check for tzset.

1500 * Released nmh-0.06.
1502 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
1503 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
1505 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
1506 many such machines around anymore.
1508 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
1509 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
1511 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
1512 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
1514 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1516 * Check lex generated file in zotnet/tws and use
1517 pre-generated version if necessary.
1519 * Released nmh-0.05.
1521 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
1522 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
1523 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
1524 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
1526 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
1527 be linked in one pass.
1529 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1531 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
1532 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
1534 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1536 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
1538 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1540 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
1541 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
1542 become the current folder.
1544 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1546 * Released nmh-0.04.
1548 * Define ospeed and PC in termsbr.c is OS doesn't have
1551 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1553 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
1554 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
1555 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
1557 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1559 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
1560 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
1562 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1564 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
1565 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
1568 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
1569 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
1571 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1573 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
1574 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
1575 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
1576 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
1577 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
1578 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
1580 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1582 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
1583 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
1585 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
1586 a file (currently need to specify full path).
1588 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1590 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
1591 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
1593 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1595 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
1596 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
1597 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
1599 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1601 * Released nmh-0.03.
1603 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
1604 .mh_sequence file existed.
1606 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
1607 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
1609 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
1610 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
1613 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1615 * Changed flist option -unseen to -[no]all. Cleaned up
1618 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1620 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
1621 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
1622 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
1624 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1626 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
1627 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
1628 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
1630 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1632 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL
1633 and allocate its own buffer. Borrowed from zsh.
1635 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
1637 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1639 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
1640 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
1641 directory from where the source code is located.
1643 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1645 * Released nmh-0.02.
1647 Wed Jan 1 17:41:52 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1649 * Split mhook man page into man pages for rcvdist, rcvpack,
1652 Tue Dec 31 03:07:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1654 * Changed code to use strerror, rather than using sys_errlist
1655 and sys_nerr directly.
1657 Mon Dec 30 02:15:25 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1659 * -compat switch from install-mh removed.
1661 * Changed the default POP port from "pop" to "pop3".
1663 Sat Dec 28 13:25:05 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1665 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
1666 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
1667 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
1668 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
1669 rather than in script.
1671 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1673 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
1675 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with
1676 macro defined on Solaris.
1678 Thu Dec 26 02:50:15 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1680 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
1681 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
1683 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
1684 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
1685 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
1686 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
1689 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1691 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
1692 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.
1694 * Fixed configure test so that termcap variable ospeed is
1697 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1699 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
1701 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included
1702 in mhn.c. Changed md5 to use memset and memcpy.
1704 Fri Dec 20 02:29:37 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1706 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
1707 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
1709 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1711 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
1712 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
1713 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
1714 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
1715 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
1716 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
1718 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1720 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
1722 * Released nmh-0.01.
1724 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
1725 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
1726 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
1729 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1731 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
1734 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1736 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
1737 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
1739 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1741 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
1742 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
1743 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
1744 script to find_program.
1746 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1748 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
1749 speed up -recurse option.
1751 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
1752 yet, but it compiles :-)
1754 * Changed default location for install to /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}.
1755 Split files so that format and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and
1756 support binaries go in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed
1757 in the top level Makefile.
1759 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
1760 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
1761 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
