1 2008-08-13 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
3 * uip/pick.c: Print matching messages immediately, instead of
4 waiting until the very end to print anything.
6 2008-08-13 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
8 * uip/Makefile.in, uip/popi.c: Remove popi.c, which has been dead
9 since PatchSet 257 (2000/06/12 11:07:34 UTC).
11 2008-08-13 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
13 * h/mhparse.h: Move interfaces also used by mhbuildsbr.c here
16 * uip/Makefile.in (mhbuild): Build with mhparse.o.
18 * uip/mhbuildsbr.c: Drop the duplication of mhparse.c.
20 * uip/mhbuild.c, uip/mhlist.c, uip/mhn.c, uip/mhshow.c,
21 uip/mhstore.c, uip/mhtest.c: Drop check swdeclaration, which is
24 * uip/mhparse.c: Move some declarations to mhparse.h, and remove
25 'static' from the definitions here.
26 (get_ctinfo): Take magic mhbuild support from mhbuildsbr.c's copy,
28 (incl_name_value, extract_name_value): Move from mhbuildsbr.c to
29 support get_ctinfo change).
30 (get_content, open7Bit): Add Content-Disposition support, added to
31 mhbuildsbr.c's copy in mhbuildsbr.c r1.12 (PatchSet 549).
32 (InitText): Default to CHARSET_UNSPECIFIED instead of "US-ASCII",
33 as mhbuildsbr.c's copy did. Explain termproc.
34 (openBase64, openQuoted, open7Bit): Fix comment from r1.5:
35 suffixes, not prefixes.
36 (openMail): Explain showproc.
38 * test/tests/mhshow/test-cte-binary: Add test for
39 Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary (Debian #136976).
41 * test/tests/mhbuild/test-forw: Add an mhbuild test, testing forw
42 with and without RFC-934 mode. More mhbuild tests would be nice.
44 2008-08-13 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
46 * test/tests/bad-input/test-header: Add test for it.
48 * sbr/m_getfld.c: If we reach the end of the line without finding
49 a ':' when parsing a header field, treat that line as the
50 beginning of the body rather than blowing up. These messages are
51 usually spam, but it's nice to be able to at least scan them.
53 2008-08-12 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
55 * test/tests/mhshow/test-qp: Test various valid and invalid
58 * uip/mhparse.c (openQuoted): Simplify the decode-or-show for loop by
59 peeking ahead to the next byte(s) when encountering '=', and just let
60 invalid escape sequences through as literals (fixes bug #15245).
62 2008-08-12 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
64 * autogen.sh (new file): add script for running the GNU
65 autotools in the right order
66 * INSTALL: mention that you need to run autogen.sh if you
68 * docs/README.developers: mention autogen.sh rather than
69 suggesting running autoheader and autoconf by hand.
70 * test/setup-test: run autotools via autogen.sh
72 2008-08-08 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
74 * sbr/discard.c, sbr/m_getfld.c, uip/scansbr.c: Add support for
75 DragonFlyBSD stdio (from NetBSD pkgsrc).
77 2008-08-05 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
79 * uip/folder.c: chdir(nmhdir) in main rather than in dodir, which
80 is called many times. Drop the chdir in get_folder_info, which
81 served no purpose at all. If struct stat has d_type (BSD), use
82 that to skip processing (strcmp, stat, and so on) of message
83 files, mostly undoing the slow-down from the last change.
85 * configure.in: Call CHECK_TYPE_STRUCT_DIRENT_D_TYPE.
87 * aclocal.m4: Add CHECK_TYPE_STRUCT_DIRENT_D_TYPE from
90 2008-08-04 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
92 * uip/folder.c: Simplify dodir/addir/addfold. Dump hacky
93 over-optimization in addir that tried to avoid readdir after all
94 child directories had been read; this was also trying to support
95 symlinks to directories, but would have been failing (because
96 nlink may have gone to 0 with symlinks to directories remaining)
97 had the lstat usage been correct (lstat doesn't fail for normal
98 directories; should have used S_ISLNK).
100 2008-08-03 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
102 * test/setup-test: use 'set -e' so we stop on compile failure.
103 Configure --enable-debug for convenience in debugging.
105 * uip/whatnowsbr.c: bug #23319: rework the way we handle the working
106 directory when invoking the user's shell, so that we don't have
107 issues when the cwd contains a space or shell special character.
108 * test/tests/whatnow/test-attach-detach, test/tests/whatnow/test-cd,
109 test/tests/whatnow/test-ls: test cases for this.
111 * sbr/fmt_compile.c: add 'do { ... } while (0)' wrappers
112 to various multi-statement macros to avoid nasty surprises
113 if the macros are used in if() clauses.
115 * bug #23436: man/scan.man, man/forw.man, man/inc.man,
116 man/mh-chart.man, man/mhmail.man, man/mhshow.man,
117 man/mhstore.man, man/msgchk.man, man/packf.man, man/scan.man:
118 fix minor syntax errors groff warns about.
119 * test/runtest, test/README: allow test cases to report
120 that they have been SKIPped as well as PASS/FAIL
121 * test/tests/manpages/test-manpages - new test which runs groff
122 on the manpages and checks that there are no warnings.
123 * test/runalltests: ignore editor backup files
125 2008-08-03 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
127 * etc/replcomps, etc/replgroupcomps: Trim trailing whitespace from
130 2008-08-03 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
132 * sbr/fmt_compile.c: when doing an if-test on the result
133 of a function which returns a string result, check whether
134 the string is non-empty (as the documentation says we do).
135 Previously we were always testing the integer 'value'. Bug
136 spotted by Eric Gillespie.
137 * test/tests/repl/test-if-str: test case for this bug
139 2008-07-24 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
141 * test/setup-test: Run 'make clean' before building
143 2008-07-24 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
145 * test/runtest: cat test-temp-dir only once. Destroy and create
146 test Mail hierarchy here, so each test has its own independent
149 * test/setup-test: Drop needless pushd/popd, which don't exist in
150 sh anyway. Don't use aclocal, which is part of automake.
151 Don't create Mail hierarchy here (see test/runtest).
153 * test/tests/folder/test-create, tests/folder/test-total: Drop
156 * tests/pick/test-pick: Remove failing no-op test.
158 * test/tests/scan/test-scan: Write expected and actual output to
159 files and diff them. This way, if the output differs, diff
160 provides the FAILing exit code and shows the differences.
162 2008-06-12 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
163 * man/repl.man, etc/mhl.reply:
164 Add an attribution line when replying to messages.
166 2008-06-02 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
168 * h/mh.h, h/prototypes.h, sbr/done.c, uip/inc.c,
169 uip/mhbuild.c, uip/mhlist.c, uip/mhn.c, uip/mhshow.c,
170 uip/mhstore.c, uip/mhtest.c, uip/packf.c, uip/pick.c,
171 uip/rcvdist.c, uip/rcvstore.c, uip/sendsbr.c: when
172 building on gcc, use the noreturn attribute on various
173 functions (should improve code and avoid some spurious
174 'uninitialized variable' warnings).
176 2008-06-01 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
178 * docs/README.developers: update the bits about doing a
179 release announcement, now I've actually done one.
181 2008-05-22 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
183 * uip/scansbr.c: don't use MB_CUR_MAX if we aren't compiled
184 with multibyte support.
186 * uip/whatnowsbr.c: factor out common code for writing ls
187 shell command, and make it do more sensible buffer length
188 checks. Also avoid relying on the return value of sprintf(),
189 as some old systems don't return number of characters written.
191 2008-05-21 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
193 * sbr/utils.c (mh_xrealloc): don't assume realloc() can
194 handle NULL pointers; some non-POSIX realloc()s can't.
196 * sbr/dtimep.lex: add some table size declarations for the
197 benefit of elderly lexes with small defaults.
199 2008-05-18 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
201 * sbr/addrsbr.c: removed "err" from conditional, because gcc
202 correctly warned that it would always evaluate as true. It's
203 the address of a static array.
205 2008-05-16 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
207 * sbr/Makefile.in, config/Makefile.in: Don't use $< in target rules
208 in makefiles, as POSIX says it's only defined in inference rules.
210 2008-05-13 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
212 * configure.in, INSTALL: if --enable-masquerade is not
213 specified to configure, enable all supported masquerade forms.
214 This allows users to masquerade with the default
215 configuration. That seems to be more worthwhile now than
216 trying to prevent users from using it, especially with
217 single-user installations or those where a user can edit
220 2008-05-04 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
222 * bug #23167: sbr/ruserpass.c (ruserpass): make bad permissions
223 on .netrc be an instantly fatal error. Previously we returned
224 an error value; however, no caller was checking it. So now
225 ruserpass() has a void return type.
227 * bug #23163: various minor fixes for the benefit of
228 older Unixes (specifically SunOS 4):
229 reintroduce strerror() substitute implementation
230 provide memmove() substitute implementation
232 * bug #23163: fix accidentally broken 'build outside
233 source directory' feature
235 * bug #23162: sbr/dtime.c: fix stray HAVE_TM_GMTOFF that
236 wasn't updated to the new macro name.
238 2008-04-30 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
240 * mts/smtp/smtp.c: provide a callback for SASL_CB_AUTHNAME
241 (fixes issue with SASL sending the wrong username in some
242 circumstances). Thanks to <der_wachtmeister@freenet.de>
245 2008-04-29 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
247 * Revert previous attempt at fix for SASL issue as it
248 is the wrong approach.
250 * Fix in correct manner, by making sm_rrecord() and thus
251 sm_hear() set the length of the reply string correctly
252 (the SASL libraries now care if you pass in the wrong
255 * Correct various places in smtp.c where the reply string
256 might not have been correctly NUL-terminated. Includes a
257 fix for a particularly nasty and long standing screwup
258 where the buffer length counting in smhear() was totally
259 broken for continued lines from the server.
261 2008-04-29 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
263 * Cope with sasl_decode64() returning SASL_CONTINUE, as
264 happens with newer sasl libraries and LOGIN auth.
266 2008-04-27 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
268 * Updated some of the 'how to do a release' documentation.
270 * Upped the VERSION string to '1.3-dev', since 1.3-RC1 has
273 2008-04-27 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
275 * Released nmh-1.3 RC1.
277 2008-04-11 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
279 * acconfig.h, configure.in, sbr/dtime.c, sbr/pidwait.c,
280 uip/mhshowsbr.c, uip/rcvtty.c, uip/slocal.c, uip/termsbr.c:
281 move most remaining macros out of acconfig.h which is an
282 obsolete feature of autoconf
284 2008-04-05 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
286 * bug #18655: fix use of admonish() for a fatal error (should
287 be adios(); only actual effect would be wrong exit code).
288 Thanks to Craig Leres for spotting this.
290 2008-04-05 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
292 * bug #20028 (Debian bug 399271): fix code assuming that pointer
293 differences were 32 bits -- thanks to Dean Gaudet for the patch.
295 2008-01-25 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
297 * uip/mhshowsbr.c (show_all_messages): Be more generous when parsing
300 2007-11-04 Joel Reicher <joel@panacea.null.org>
302 * Changed done() link overriding to function pointer. Return type
303 is now void so that exit() can be used as done() callback. Dead
304 code return from all done()s removed, with return 1 in main()
305 following done() (should never be reached).
307 2007-08-21 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
309 * Red Hat Bug #253342: inc.c, utils.c, utils.h: When inc is run with
310 the -silent flag, don't exit(1) for no apparent reason.
312 2007-03-12 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
314 * bug #18630, #18631, #18632, #18634: various patches from
315 Craig Leres fixing error message argument problems.
317 2007-03-12 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
319 * bug #15212: configure.in, acconfig.h: remove configure test for
320 broken AT&T vi. This test was broken (it was always returning
321 failure even for non-broken vi implementations) and
322 unfixable. Nobody should be using AT&T vi any more so I have
323 simply moved it back to being a setting you can put manually into
324 acconfig.h if you must.
326 2006-10-24 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
328 * uip/sendsbr.c: with attachformat values of 1 or 2, add
329 name= portion to Content-Type header. This makes them
330 consistent with attachformat value 0. And it allows mhstore
331 to use that (file)name when extracting attachments.
333 2006-08-26 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
335 * configure.in: If we're not using dotlocking, there is no need to set
338 2006-03-30 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
340 * uip/sendsbr.c: with attachformat values of 1 or 2, only
341 generate Content-Disposition headers for MIME attachments, not
342 for the message contents themselves. Microsoft Outlook Build
343 10.0.6626, at least, doesn't show the message contents if they
344 have Content-Disposition.
346 2006-03-09 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
348 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c (decode_rfc2047): Don't close the iconv descriptor
351 2006-03-08 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
353 * (mh_strcasecmp): Rename the private strcasecmp function to
354 mh_strcasecmp. This keeps the newer gnu linker happy.
356 2006-03-05 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
358 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c: don't try to malloc 0 bytes if an RFC2047
359 encoded block is empty
361 2006-03-04 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
363 * etc/Makefile.in: use INSTALL_SCRIPT to install scripts;
364 this allows INSTALL_PROGRAM to be set to 'install -s' so
365 binaries are stripped on installation. Apparently the BSDs
368 2006-02-25 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
370 * uip/sendsbr.c: replaced st_mtim with st_mtime, that's what
371 it should have been. Added #include of h/tws.h to pick up
374 2006-02-20 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
376 * h/mh.h, h/prototypes.h, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, uip/send.c,
377 uip/sendsbr.c, uip/viamail.c, uip/whatnowsbr.c, man/send.man:
378 added -attachformat switch to send, to support alternate MIME
379 header contents when using -attach. See send man page for
382 * man/mhbuild.man: wrapped one appearance of "Content-Disposition"
383 with quotes, to be consistent with others.
385 2006-02-20 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
387 * h/utils.h, sbr/utils.c, uip/flist.c, uip/folder.c: Move duplicate
388 function num_digits into utils.c
390 2006-02-19 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
392 * sbr/m_draft.c, sbr/utils.c, uip/folder.c, uip/inc.c,
393 uip/mhstoresbr.c, uip/popi.c, uip/refile.c: Add create_folder()
394 function, replacing duplicate code during folder creation.
396 2006-02-18 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
398 * h/mime.h, h/mhparse.h, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, uip/mhfree.c,
399 man/mhbuild.man, docs/TODO: added support for an optional
400 Content-Disposition header in mhbuild (only). Its contents
401 are supplied between {}, positioned after the optional [], in
402 a mhbuild directive. If the contents do not contain a
403 "filename=" parameter, and the directive has a filename, or
404 something else that ends with "name=", then that will be used
405 to add a "filename=" parameter to the header.
407 2006-02-12 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
409 * docs/TODO: added RFC2183 to reference of RFC1806 for
410 Content-Disposition header.
412 2006-01-31 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
414 * uip/mhbuild.c, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, man/mhbuild.man: added
415 -nocontentid switch, to disable generation of Content-ID:
416 header in MIME messages. (Also added -contentid for
417 symmetry.) The default configuration of Microsoft Outlook,
418 Build 10.0.3416 in particular, doesn't see attachments in
419 incoming messages if there are Content-ID headers, see
420 http://home.cwru.edu/~wrv/eudoraoutlookfix.html. This allows
421 users to easily accomodate that by adding
422 mhbuild: -nocontentid to their .mh_profile.
424 2006-01-29 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
426 * bug 4360: uip/replsbr.c: remove trailing newlines from components
427 to fix bug with spaces at the end of Subject/References in replies
429 2006-01-18 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
431 * configure.in: use AS_HELP_STRING for formatting help messages
433 * configure.in, sbr/fmt_scan.c: add autoconf magic to support
434 old systems that don't support multibyte character sets
436 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: fix bug with insertion of newline being wrong if
437 the num function was used at the end of the format buffer
439 2006-01-17 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
441 * uip/post.c, uip/spost.c: in make_bcc_file (), use same
442 logic as in finish_headers () to detect whether there is an
443 existing From: line in the draft. If draft_from masquerade
444 flag is enabled, this allows the From: to be obeyed in the
445 Bcc, instead of the old behavior of always replacing it with
448 2006-01-17 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
450 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: more robust multi-byte/column support for field
451 widths, restoring right justification feature
453 2006-01-16 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
455 * h/aliasbr.h, h/rcvmail.h, man/Makefile.in, man/slocal.man,
456 sbr/lock_file.c, uip/aliasbr.c, uip/dropsbr.c, uip/post.c,
457 uip/slocal.c, man/mh-mts.man: remove remnants of code for MMDF
459 * uip/scansbr.c: multiply buffer size by MB_CUR_MAX so multi-byte
462 2006-01-14 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
464 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: Turn the PUTSF macro into a function capable of
465 handling multi column characters.
467 2006-01-07 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
469 * Remove sbr/strerror.c -- strerror(3) is defined in C89.
471 2006-01-06 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
473 * patch #3968: Move the add() function from its own file (add.c) and
474 into utils.c. There was also a duplicate add() function in mf.c which
477 2006-01-02 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
479 * Remove sbr/pwd.c file, moving the pwd() function into sbr/utils.c.
481 2006-01-01 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
483 * patch #3967: Create a mh_xrealloc function to prevent mistakes when
486 2006-01-01 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
488 * patch #3966: Create a mh_xmalloc function to prevent mistakes when
491 2005-12-24 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
493 * Bug #15285: Don't use $< in target rules in makefiles, as POSIX
494 says it's only defined in inference rules. (BSD make was expanding
495 $< to the empty string in the rule for building sbr/dtimep.c, which
496 causes lex to apparently hang because it's reading from stdin.)
498 2005-12-24 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
500 * Completely redo db library checking -- we now check for working
501 (include file, library) pairs rather than checking for headers and
502 libraries separately. We also now provide --with-ndbm=lib and
503 --with-ndbmheader=header options to configure to handle situations
504 where configure's autodetection fails.
506 2005-12-21 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
508 * Fix stupid accidental dependence on a bash quirk in previous
509 configure script change.
511 2005-12-15 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
513 * Improve checking for Berkeley db libraries: configure should now
514 find a suitable library on systems with new gdbm where
515 compatibility functions are in the gdbm_compat library, and on
518 2005-12-13 Michael Forrest <mef@computer.org>
520 * Fedora Bug #163760: sbr/context_read.c (context_read): Ensure that
521 the context is only read once.
523 2005-12-12 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
525 * uip/sendsbr.c (annoaux): Fix the call to annotate() fixing a bug
526 which prevented repl from properly annotating messages.
528 2005-12-07 Jon Steinhart <nmh@fourwinds.com>
530 * Fixed a bug where anno -append put the headers in the wrong place
531 if applied to a message that didn't contain any headers.
533 * Added a special value of "all" to the -number option that causes
534 anno -delete to delete all matching components instead of just
537 * Added new -preserve and -nopreserve options. Using -preserve
538 retains the original last accessed and last modified times on
541 2005-12-05 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
543 * Fedora Bug #174983: configure.in: Fix the AC_PATH_PROG default when
544 vi isn't found during build.
546 2005-11-19 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
548 * bug #14977: sbr/context_read.c: special case an MHCONTEXT of
549 "/dev/null" and don't try to lock it.
551 * bug #9228, debian bug #146449: man/mh-profile.man: make it clearer
552 that lower case environment variables (and in particular mheditor)
553 are internal to nmh and not intended to be set by the user.
555 2005-11-09 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
557 * sbr/mf.c: fix buffer overrun with absurdly long addresses
558 (only causes crashes if scan is run with '-width 16536' or similar)
560 * bug #7917: sbr/context_foil.c, sbr/context_read.c,
561 sbr/context_save.c: mark 'no context' with NULL rather than
562 "/dev/null" so we don't inadvertently try to lock /dev/null (which
563 takes up to a minute in some locking configurations and makes post
566 * patch #3913: uip/post.c: pass some globals into sm_init() so that
567 it uses SASL if necessary. (This bug was preventing Bcc'd emails
568 from being sent via SASL authenticated SMTP.)
570 * bug #9813: uip/rmf.c: don't crash if there's no Current-Folder
571 entry in the context file.
573 2005-11-13 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
575 * bug #7833: uip/Makefile.in: remove link to install-mh that caused
576 problems on some systems
578 * bug #739: Makefile.in: install target now depends on all to avoid
579 problem on case-insensitive file systems with the INSTALL file
581 2005-11-10 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
583 * Fedora Bug #172838: configure.in: Fix the AC_PATH_PROG default when
584 sendmail isn't found during build.
586 2005-11-09 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
588 * h/aliasbr.h: fix a non-ANSI prototype.
590 2005-11-08 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
592 * Simon Burge: acconfig.h, configure.in, uip/rcvtty.c, uip/slocal.c:
593 fix to handle getutent() on NetBSD
595 * INSTALL, README, docs/README.about, man/nmh.man: update most
596 references to the web page and mailing list locations
598 * bug #10230: etc/Makefile.in, man/Makefile.in, uip/Makefile.in:
599 Michael De La Rue: prepend DESTDIR to install locations
601 * configure.in, */Makefile.in, mts/smtp/smtp.c: replace obsolete
604 2005-11-06 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
606 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, sbr/fmt_scan.c, h/prototypes.h: fix various
607 possible overruns of the buffers in fmt_scan() which would cause
608 crashes if scan was run with '-width 16536' or similar.
610 * uip/popsbr.c: fix compile error which only showed up if nmh
611 was configured with --enable-apop.
613 * Debian Bug# 245932, RedHat Bug# 172388: uip/mhparse.c: don't
614 crash when handling a multipart MIME message with an invalid
615 Content-Type header (file handle was being fclose()d twice).
617 * sbr/Makefile.in: adjust lex command to work on both old and
618 new versions of flex.
620 * configure.in: add an AC_PREREQ() so autoconf 2.13 gives a helpful
621 error message and the Debian autoconf-version-guessing wrapper
622 doesn't guess wrongly.
624 2005-11-02 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
626 * Debian Bug# 320069: Nick Rusnov: uip/popsbr.c: fail when
627 kpop connection attempted without KPOP support compiled in
629 * Debian Bug# 320090: Nick Rusnov: sbr/Makefile.in: fix for newer
630 version of flex and remove autogenerated file from cvs
632 * patch #1155: uip/flist.c: speed up flist by skipping stat on
633 files with numbers as names
635 * docs/Makefile.in: include new files in distribution
637 2005-10-11 Bill Wohler <wohler@newt.com>
639 * docs/FAQ: fold questions into MH FAQ and distribute that instead
641 2005-10-05 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
643 * Harald Geyer: h/mh.h, uip/replsbr.c: back out previous change
644 (fork/vfork) and replace with code that handles the issue directly
646 2005-05-18 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
648 * Debian Bug# 143485: Nick Rusnov: h/mh.h: use fork instead of
651 * Debian Bug# 261592: Harald Geyer: uip/mhlsbr.c, uip/replsbr.c:
652 test/report error writing to stdout
654 * mts/smtp/smtp.c, uip/popsbr.c: correct SASL include file locations
656 * docs/COMPLETION-BASH: bash completion definitions from Debian
658 * patch #2863: savannah@brisammon.fastmail.fm: sbr/folder_read.c:
659 fix a bug affecting AFS where nmh was setting the READONLY flag
660 for a folder even when you do have write access to the folder
662 * Carl Mummert: h/fmt_compile.h, man/mh-format.man,
663 sbr/fmt_compile.c, sbr/fmt_scan.c: add unquote() function for
664 removing quotes from RFC-2822 encoded headers
666 2005-02-23 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
668 * use iconv to convert RFC-2047 encoded headers to the
669 character set used by the current locale
671 * sbr/folder_read.c fix Debian bug #202667: crash when a
672 message's filename overflows an int when converted
674 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
675 versions (from automake 1.9.5)
677 2005-02-21 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
679 * sbr/getpass.c fix bug where inc crashed on failing to reopen
682 2005-01-27 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
684 * Added -proxy option to inc and msgchk. Based on old patch
685 from Michael Richardson.
687 * On systems where it is available, use nl_langinfo to get the
688 character set if MM_CHARSET is unset
690 2005-01-21 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
692 * sbr/check_charset.c US-ASCII is a subset of UTF-8 so can be
693 handled directly when UTF-8 is being used
695 2004-12-17 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
697 * uip/mhmisc.c Fix -part option to mhshow/mhlist/mhstore to
698 find sub-parts of the specified part
700 2004-11-19 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
702 * h/prototypes.h, sbr/folder_addmsg.c, uip/mhstoresbr.c,
703 uip/rcvstore.c, uip/refile.c: Added mail directory argument to
704 folder_addmsg in order to make it possible to provide a path to
705 the ext_hook call that is mailpath-based. A problem existed when
706 a folder was a symbolic link and the pwd call would return the
707 path relative to the filesystem, not to mailpath. A new argument
708 was needed because there was otherwise no reasonable way to get
711 2004-11-16 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
713 * sbr/folder_pack.c: Fixed problem where the refile hook was being
714 called after a message was renamed so that it wasn't around for
715 the hook. The hook is now called before the message file is
718 * sbr/folder_addmsg.c: Fixed wrong directory for hook when
719 refiling with -src option.
721 2004-10-15 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
723 * uip/sortm.c: Fixed calling of external hooks.
725 2004-10-12 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
727 * uip/inc.c: Fixed another weird bug caused by the static
728 mailpath being overwritten.
730 * uip/sendsbr.c: Fixed bug that caused anno to mangle headers.
732 * sbr/lock_file.c: Fixed strange bug that prevented a lock from
733 ever being obtained if getting it failed the first time. The
734 problem was that the string of XXXXXX that is required by
735 mkstemp() was overwritten the first time through, and so all
736 subsequent times failed because mkstemp() failed. The fix
737 reinitializes the tmp file string.
739 * uip/inc.c: Fixed bug in which the static maildir was overwritted
740 if a format string was read from the profile.
742 * sbr/folder_delmsgs.c: Fixed bug that was producing an incorrect
743 path for the external hook.
745 2003-10-06 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
747 * uip/slocal.c, configure.in: db configuration fix for Debian; yet
748 another location for ndbm.
750 2003-09-30 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
752 * Fix 'pick' so handling of options "-list" and "-seq" are
754 * Fix 'inc' realloc error when bringing in more than 100 msgs
756 * Patches submitted by Nick Rusnov from Debian archive applied:
759 136976 - Handle binary content messages
760 143427 - mh-format.man typo
761 144098 - 'spost; should have same behavior as 'post'
762 w.r.t. mts.conf masquerade line
763 149745 - slocal ignores 'N' result of previous command
764 152728 - increase SMTP timeouts to conform to RFC 1123
765 The timeouts suggested by the RFC seem long
766 to me - but the RFC is still listed as active.
767 181867 - typo for nmh.man
769 2003-08-10 Jeffrey C Honig <jch@honig.net>
771 * Fix problem where parsing of address/date fields in fmt_compile
772 is optimized to the first instance. The first instance may be in
773 contitional code which will result in cached data to
774 be used. Instead, convert c_flags to a flags field from a boolean
775 and parse on the first use.
776 * Remove some unused flag bits.
778 Fri Jul 01 22:02:00 2003 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
780 * Applied fixes for configuration problems with Solaris and
781 systems with gdbm instead of db1 (includes bug #2024)
783 #578 - repl leaks umask
784 #1393 - sortm core dumps
785 #1650 - msh leaks file descriptors
786 #1730 - Double free() in mhfree.c:free_encoding()
787 #3356 - In-Reply-To header in default replcomps should be
789 * Revised man page for mh-format (bug #2031)
790 * New replcomps, etc, with Fcc: +outbox in default versions
792 Sat Mar 17 03:18:15 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
794 * Ken Hornstein's configure.in Cyrus SASL checks were doing
795 `x"$with_cyrus_sasl" != "no"' instead of `... != x"no"'.
797 Tue Mar 06 21:04:27 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
799 * Found some historical information about MH in RFC 808.
800 Supplemented it with info from Jerry Peek's MH book and added it
801 to docs/README.about.
803 Tue Feb 6 20:35:40 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
805 * sbr/dtime.c Use the same Y2K correction code as dtimep.lex
807 * sbr/dtimep.lex Restrict the parser to accept either
808 a numerical timezone offset, or a symbolic one (e.g. EST),
809 but not both (Since "2000 -400 EDT" might cause a double
810 subtraction of 60 minutes if both are parsed. One should be
813 Mon Feb 05 20:22:54 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
815 * -L isn't sufficient for specifying the path of the Cyrus SASL
816 shared library. That'll allow us to link successfully, but on
817 many/most OSes that won't allow us to find libsasl at runtime. On
818 Solaris, we need to specify the library path with -R as well (or
819 else the user will have to use the $LD_LIBRARY_PATH kludge, which
820 is considered harmful). This fix should be extended to other OSes
823 * Print whether we have SASL support in the "nmh configuration"
824 summary configure prints out.
826 * Say in README.developers to use `\date' in case anyone is like
827 me and has `date' aliased in their shell to use a nonstandard (but
828 subjectively more readable) format.
830 Thu Jan 25 21:15:52 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
832 * man/mh-chart.man has updated synposes of
835 Tue Jan 23 20:26:15 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
837 * etc/digestcomps tried to force dates into a
838 19xx when it's not necessary.
840 Fri Jan 19 21:22:08 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
842 * First round of manpage updates finished. They
843 are standardized on -man macros, with minimal
846 * man/tmac.h.in is no longer needed, since the
847 manpages do not depend on them anymore. Note:
848 strict "man" programs that didn't allow ".so"
849 sourcing outside the man tree will now format
850 the man pages correctly.
852 * man/vmh.1 is no longer built, since uip/vmh isn't
854 Tue Jan 9 6:01:22 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
856 * Finished manpages ali-prev
858 * Removed deprecated files from the repository.
859 Specifically, those rooted in zotnet/ and mts/sendmail
860 mts/mmdf. "cvs update -dP" will give a pruned directory
863 * Updated docs/Makefile.in to include README.manpages, and
864 uip/Makefile.in to include popi.c (which isn't being built,
865 though). This allows "make nmhdist" to create an archive that
866 is file-for-file identical to the current cvs repository.
868 Sun Dec 31 20:48:50 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
870 * Create docs/README.manpages, which details
871 the formatting rules I've been using.
875 Sat Dec 30 9:50:13 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
877 * Created a new file "DATE" to hold the date
878 of the most recent nmh release. This date will be
879 used in the manpages.
881 * Updated docs/README.developers to add the step
882 of updating DATE. Also, updated configure to
883 read in the contents of the file as the variable
886 * Started work on updating man pages, with only
887 ali finished so far. Changes: 1) no dependence
888 on an external macro file, 2) uses only
889 -man macros (although I may be mistaken in this),
890 3) syntax in the SYNOPSIS is a little more
891 in line with standard UNIX documentation, such as
892 bold flags and italicized parameters.
894 Sun Dec 24 10:06:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
896 * Updated INSTALL with information about the
897 --with-locking option.
899 * Fixed the Hesiod tests in configure.in. In
900 systems where res_send was in -lresolv, this
901 information was not being communicated to the
902 HESIOD_LIBS var. Now, if res_send is not found
903 in the default libraries, it's assumed to be
904 in -lresolv, and thus -lresolv is appended to
905 HESIOD_LIBS, which will need that to avoid
906 undefined symbols problems.
908 * Fixed the Kerberos tests in configure.in. New
909 versions of Kerberos 5 have renamed -lcrypto
910 to -lk5crypto (circa krb5 1.1 or thereabouts). The
911 new test tries to determine if -lk5crypto exists. If so,
912 this is a new krb5 system. If not, test for -lcrypto
913 and the rest of old krb5. If that fails, look
914 for a genuine krb4 installation.
916 Fri Dec 22 22:08:51 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
918 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in msgchk.man.
919 -snoop was documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
921 Fri Dec 22 23:42:16 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
923 * Made a new ./configure option called
924 "--with-locking" that allows the file
925 locking mechanism to be chosen there instead of
926 requiring a manual edit of config.h.
928 * If the option is not explicitly set, or an
929 invalid option is specified, "dot" locking is
930 chosen. Valid options are "dot", "fcntl",
931 "flock", and "lockf". We need a way to tell
932 the user that these are the valid options, and
933 change the flag "--with-locking" if it's not
936 Fri Dec 22 19:21:29 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
938 * Remove the lex-specific memory hints at the
939 beginning of sbr/dtimep.lex. We've already
940 committed to supporting flex only, since
941 lex does not easily allow us to parse a single
942 string, as well as other problems documented
943 below and on nmh-workers.
945 * Added a switch statement to configure.in to
946 test for Mac OS X. If this is the case, LDFLAGS
947 should not contain "-s" since the linker rejects
950 * Updated MACHINES to include Mac OS X Public Beta,
951 as well as Linux 2.4 running glibc 2.2.
953 Wed Dec 20 16:00:46 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
955 * Marked deprecated directories in docs/README.developers
956 as deprecated, with pointers to the new code location.
957 Eventually these deprecated directories should go away.
959 Tue Dec 19 19:16:37 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
961 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in inc.man. -snoop was
962 documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
964 Thu Dec 14 14:32:09 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
966 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
967 versions on ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/config, dated
968 12-07-00. This should prevent configure from failing
969 on newer operating systems because config.{guess,sub}
970 couldn't correctly identify them.
972 Thu Dec 14 1:30:44 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
974 * Fixed the circular dependency created when I moved
975 zotnet/mts to mts/generic and merged them into libmts.
976 mts/generic/client.c and mts/generic/mts.c are now in sbr/
977 (and thus in libmh), which makes libmh self-contained and
978 not depending on an external archive.
980 * All include statements now look for mts.h in h/. The
981 Makefiles and configure script have been modified so that
982 mts/generic is no longer built.
984 Mon Dec 11 22:08:07 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
986 * When Shantonu made the new libmts.a, he swapped $(MTSLIB) and
987 libmh.a in sbr/Makefile.in so that libmh.a comes first, but this
988 causes the build to fail on Solaris, because libmts.a has to get
989 ruserpass() out of libmh.a. Swapping them back to the way Ken
990 Hornstein's patch (which I applied on Jul 20) put them, with
991 libmh.a correctly coming second. If there are times when libmts.a
992 needs to come second, then it would appear there's a circular
993 dependency and someone (Shantonu?) did an mts merge incorrectly.
995 Fri Sep 8 01:36:23 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
997 * Took out bad time textual time zones like BST and JST.
998 I found them online somewhere, but am not sure if they're
1001 Fri Sep 8 00:36:48 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1003 * Moved zotnet/mts to mts/generic. This code reorganization
1004 makes the entire zotnet tree deprecated -- bboards is unneeded,
1005 mf was was moved to sbr, tws was rewritten and moved to sbr, and
1008 * Created a new static library called libmts.a used during
1009 compilation which includes the generic mts code and the
1010 smtp/sendmail code. This supercedes the functionality of the
1011 old libsmtp.a and the remains of libzot.a.
1013 * Updated header includes to reference the new location of mts.h
1014 in mts/generic/mts.h. Also, update the configure and top-level
1015 Makefile not to descend into zotnet. Also, they don't descend
1016 into mts/mmdf and mts/sendmail (the sendmail code has been
1017 merged into the smtp code).
1019 * Added #include <h/nmh.h> to h/md5.h, since my compile was
1020 complaining about implicitly-declared memcpy and memset, which
1021 appear to be in strings.h. In any event, nmh.h should take care
1024 * When doing a "make nmhdist", notice that the generated
1025 snapshot does not include zotnet of the mts directories as noted
1026 above. Since they are no longer compiled, and I don't see any
1027 obvious code path to get to them, end-users should probably
1028 not need them. If you think otherwise, turn Makefile generation
1029 back on in configure.in and turn on recursion into those dirs
1030 in the appropriate Makefile.in
1032 Wed Sep 6 22:40:03 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1034 * Tracked down the problem in the new dtimep where time
1035 zones were being radically misreported. It was because the
1036 parser knew about military time zones (such as M or E) but in
1037 some cases did not know about the textual representation of
1038 some zones (like MET). When it encountered one of these, the
1039 date parser misread MET as the military time zone T (well, first
1040 zone M, then E, and finally T). I took military zones out, and
1041 things seem much better. Also, the default behavior of parsing
1042 time zones appears to default to GMT in the absence of better
1043 info, which is less bogus than assuming the mail came from the
1044 current time zone, which was the behavior in 1.04.
1046 Thu Aug 10 13:22:13 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1048 * Decided that limiting the message number columns to 3 on my
1049 scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD (to try to regain space taken by
1050 extra date info) was ill-conceived. It's not that tough to get
1051 past 999 messages, though I imagine it's rather rare to exceed
1052 9999. Changed these to 4. Also put the "replied / encrypted"
1053 column back in YYYYMMDD -- I've never seen it show anything but a
1054 space, but that space is useful if you use scan, grep, and awk
1055 (with the default field separator) to grab message numbers (I know
1056 -- pick should really be used for these purposes...).
1058 Mon Aug 7 20:11:09 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1060 * Modify umask set by mhshow to enable user execute bit, so that
1061 viewers that create temporary directories (e.g., lynx) will be
1062 able to access them.
1064 Thu Aug 03 17:14:08 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1066 * TODO: Allow multiple simultaneous differing contexts, probably
1067 each tied to a parent (terminal) process.
1069 Tue Aug 1 10:48:05 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
1071 * Makefile install rules should not look for generated files in
1072 the source tree -- this will happen to work when configuring and
1073 building inside the source tree but will fail when using an
1074 external build tree. Fixed etc/Makefile.in.
1076 Mon Jul 24 16:20:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1078 * When Shantonu wrote the new, more portable dtimep.lex, he left
1079 out the #ifdef DSTXXX stuff for some reason. Not a good idea, as
1080 that code is required for proper printing of numeric-offset
1081 timezones that have daylight saving time. Without that code,
1082 -0700 during DST gets printed as MST instead of PDT.
1084 * Renamed DSTXXX as ADJUST_NUMERIC_ONLY_TZ_OFFSETS_WRT_DST and
1085 added an explanatory comment by its #definition.
1087 * Updated README.developers with the fact that zotnet/tws is going away.
1089 Thu Jul 20 20:30:52 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1091 * Moved Kimmo's new "--with-hash-backup" to be output with the
1092 rest of the --with options in the configure --help output. Also,
1093 people did not preserve my alphabetization of the --with options
1094 when they added new ones. Re-alphabetized.
1096 * One more pass at README.developers now that it's clear that my
1097 previously-suggested one-line autoconf-file commit can cause
1098 unnecessary local makes and an out-of-sync stamp-h.in file, but
1099 would not cause problems for other people using the CVS files.
1101 * Ken Hornstein's SASL patch was not integrated properly with
1102 Ruud's new merged mts/sendmail code. Kimmo has since fixed nmh so
1103 it compiles, but according to Ken, the SASL stuff still does not
1104 work. Integrating a patch from him for this.
1106 * Last pass at README.developers -- Kimmo's 5-step commit was
1107 overkill. You only need 3 steps, since configure.in is the only
1108 autoconf file with the RCS $Id keyword.
1110 * Applied Kurt J. Lidl <lidl@eng.us.uu.net>'s $MAILHOST patch:
1112 I have a small patch that would be nice to be included --
1113 basically, it allows the usage of the "MAILHOST" environment
1114 variable, without having to have HESIOD turned on. I need
1115 this functionality for my environment, where we have identical
1116 /usr/local on all my machines (so I cannot just hardcode into
1117 the mts.conf file), and I have multiple POP mail servers for
1120 Modified inc.man to reflect that along with "pophost:" and -host,
1121 $MAILHOST can now activate POP mail inclusion as well.
1123 * Fixed warnings from diff on first-time install of nmh. Also
1124 added 'echo's clarifying the etc file installation activities.
1126 Tue Jul 18 19:36:59 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
1128 * Added the answer to Dan's question in README.developers.
1130 Mon Jul 17 19:10:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1132 * Clarified and made some corrections to Kimmo's README.developers
1133 changes (BTW, if anyone can explain why the RCS Ids are able to cause
1134 problems with the dependencies, please fill in the explanation --
1135 I never encountered a problem with the old single-commit method).
1137 Sat Jul 15 23:13:49 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
1139 * Add configure option --with-hash-backup so the backup prefix can
1140 be easily changed from "," to "#".
1142 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that it works with any make.
1144 * Use mkstemp in sbr/lock_file.c.
1146 * Commits of autoconf-related files apparently can't all be done
1147 in one shot due to RCS Ids changing when committing -- updated
1150 Tue Jul 11 14:18:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1152 * Clarified post.man and send.man for those not completely up on
1153 SASL terminology. "SASL encryption layers are not supported for
1154 SMTP" means that encryption is supported for the authentication
1155 but not for the subsequent data stream.
1157 Sat Jul 8 01:36:19 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
1159 * Applied Ken Hornstein <kenh@cmf.nrl.navy.mil>'s patches
1160 implementing SASL support for POP3 and SMTP. If nmh is compiled
1161 with SASL support, using the -sasl switch on the inc, msgchk,
1162 post, and send commands will enable authentication encryption for
1163 SMTP, and both authentication and data stream encryption for POP3.
1165 Sat Jun 10 18:37:59 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1167 * Merged mts/sendmail functionality into mts/smtp; switching between
1168 smtp and sendmail delivery method is now controlled by mts.conf.
1170 * If tsort cannot deal with loops, in addition to defining tsort as
1171 cat, also define lorder as echo.
1173 * Removed uip/popi.c from list of sources.
1175 Thu Jun 08 19:36:57 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1177 * New dtimep.lex didn't parse day names properly. Fixed. Also
1178 clarified ambiguous comments preceding day_map[] array (from old
1179 dtimep.lex) that probably led to the erroneous cp++ being added.
1181 Wed Jun 7 20:52:33 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1183 * Added one more mkstemp invocation to uip/spost.c (which was in a
1186 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to clean up permissions handling
1187 and error handling in uip/inc.c.
1189 Mon Jun 5 22:10:07 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1191 * Use cat instead of tsort if tsort cannot deal with loops in its
1192 input (which is the case for tsort from GNU textutils).
1194 Mon Jun 5 21:14:36 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1196 * If lockfile is present, and its dotlockfile program is setgid,
1197 inc does not need to be setgid.
1199 Sun Jun 4 21:35:40 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1201 * Added autoconf test for Miquel van Smoorenburg's liblockfile
1202 library, as found on Debian systems.
1204 * Added liblockfile support to sbr/lock_file.c.
1206 Wed May 31 7:19:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1208 * Fixed up dtimep.lex a bit. Added back memory options for AIX to
1209 increase available memory. Took out %option noyywrap, which
1210 wasn't understood by AT&T lex, as well as the -i
1211 case-insensitivity flag.
1213 Wed May 31 07:40:45 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1215 * Added a lint target to the Makefiles and a check in autoconf
1216 to determine whether lint or lclint exists on the system.
1218 Fri May 30 19:21:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1220 * etc/Makefile.in was incorrectly installing mts.conf.in and
1221 sendfiles.in -- fixed. Generated sendfiles script was not a
1222 dependency of the `all' target, and was incorrectly included in
1223 the distribution. Changed the suffix for the backed-up previous
1224 versions of the etc files from the ambiguous .old to .prev. Added
1225 call to diff -- only keep the .prev files around if different from
1226 the newly-installed versions (intentionally didn't redirect output
1227 to /dev/null so you'll notice when your changed versions are
1228 getting moved aside).
1230 * INSTALL never documented the etc/*.old thing. Documented the
1231 new etc/*.prev thing (including a note to watch for diff output).
1233 * Applied Alec Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu>'s dropsbr.c patch:
1235 In the map_write routine, a call is made to map_open and this
1236 call is supposed to set the "clear" variable to 0 or 1,
1237 depending on whether the map file is empty or not. In
1238 mh6.8.3, this worked because map_open would set "clear" by
1239 calling the mbx_Xopen routine. In nmh, the code for mbx_Xopen
1240 was merged into mbx_open, but the interface for mbx_open
1241 doesn't support the clear variable, so that functionality was
1242 lost. The map_open interface still contains "int *clear" in
1243 the prototype, but never sets it.
1245 My patch eliminates "clear" from the map_open interface (I
1246 checked to make sure that map_write is the only client of
1247 map_open). Furthermore, my patch also sets the "clear"
1248 variable properly at the beginning of map_write by calling
1249 fstat(). This eliminates the bug in that the value of "clear"
1250 being used later in the routine was just stack garbage.
1252 Having a bad value of clear causes this next bug to be
1253 triggered: The fp file pointer was being opened with fdopen,
1254 but in two of the three switch cases it wasn't being closed.
1255 In certain cases, this was causing packf to run out of file
1256 descriptors if you attempted to pack a large folder.
1258 Mon May 29 7:48:15 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1260 * Moved the date parsing routines from zotnet/tws to sbr/ (and
1261 tws.h to h/). Updated all source files to reflect to new location
1264 * Rewrote dparsetime (in dtimep.lex -> dtimep.c) to replace the
1265 old zotnet/tws/dtimep.c, dtimep.lex, lexstring.c, lexedit.c, and
1266 dtimep.c-lexed. It should now work with flex (although untested
1267 with lex), and requires no sed-ing. For now, I have the lexed
1268 version in the distribution, so that end-users don't need to worry
1269 about running it through flex/lex. I have not added back support
1270 for guessing the time zone when it's not specified.
1272 Sun May 28 17:44:15 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1274 * Added autoconf check for getutent().
1276 * Changed uip/rcvtty.c and uip/slocal.c to use getutent() and
1277 friends. Since I can only check on Linux, please check if
1278 this works on other systems.
1280 Sun May 28 14:58:49 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1282 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to uip/scansbr.c for more
1283 checks for write failures.
1285 * Unlink temporary file properly in uip/rcvtty.c.
1287 * Moved viamail from bindir to libdir.
1289 * Changed sendfiles into sendfiles.in, so that path to viamail
1292 * Added gzip support to sendfiles.
1294 * Added References header to replcomps and replgroupcomps.
1296 Sun May 28 14:39:31 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1298 * Fixed m_getfld bug which caused segmentation faults when
1299 incorporating messages which ended in multiple linefeeds crossing
1302 Fri May 26 13:21:59 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1304 * msh has been unable to show MIME messages ever since 1.0. Alec
1305 Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu> tracked down the problem to the
1306 -show flag being passed to mhshow. mhshow is equivalent to the
1307 old mhn -show, so we don't need the -show anymore. Removed it.
1309 Fri May 12 02:51:21 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1311 * zotnet/bboards is not longer built by default. Goal is to move
1312 the assorted functions in zotnet into sbr or some more logical
1315 * Moved zotnet/mf to sbr, and changed mf.h references accordingly,
1316 as well as Makefiles.
1318 Thu May 11 02:21:34 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1320 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that both SRCS and OBJS aren't
1321 seperately and redundantly defined, but so that OBJS is a
1322 pattern-substituted version of SRCS with suffix .c -> .o. This
1323 should make maintainability easier.
1325 * Added section to MACHINES indicating what platforms nmh is known
1326 to compile and work on, just to give users peace of mind, or
1327 something. This is by no means complete or exhaustive, so add
1328 whatever you know works.
1330 Tue May 09 20:38:04 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1332 * Alphabetized Shantonu's $pop_kinds output on configure's "pop is
1333 enabled" line. If POP3 is the only kind of POP enabled, say so,
1334 rather than just saying "yes" (which is ambiguous).
1336 * Fixed four warnings in Shantonu's new getpass.c. Needed to
1337 #include <stdlib.h> for calloc(), <unistd.h> for ttyname(), and
1338 "h/mh.h" for adios(). Also changed ch from char to int to get rid
1339 of "comparison is always 1 due to limited range of data type" on EOF.
1341 * Added steps to README.developers saying to change the version
1342 number to X.Y.Z+dev. Did a little rearranging and changed the FTP
1343 dir from /home/ftp to /var/ftp to reflect Doug's new machine.
1345 * Changed configure.in to use gcc -Wall even without
1346 --enable-debug, to prevent developers compiling optimized from
1347 introducing warnings, and to give end-users a warm, fuzzy feeling
1348 as they (hopefully) see no warnings come out (except perhaps on
1349 the lex output file) even with -Wall.
1351 * Renamed getpass() to nmh_getpass() since the prototype for
1352 getpass() varies from OS to OS, and we want to _always_ use our
1353 version of the function. Fixed all the callers to use
1354 nmh_getpass() and added it to prototypes.h. Semi-arbitrarily
1355 upped MAX_PASSWORD_LEN from 128 to 256. buf was being calloc()'d
1356 and the memory leaked -- should have just been declared as static
1357 char array. Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the
1358 copyright message, as this version has been changed significantly
1359 from the BSD version.
1361 * Added "nmh-local functions to use in preference to OS versions"
1362 section to README.developers (currently just says to use
1363 nmh_getpass() instead of system getpass()).
1365 * Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the copyright message
1366 in ruserpass.c also.
1368 * Added mts.conf.5 page per Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s
1371 This happens on solaris:
1374 windex entry incorrect: mts.conf(5) not found.
1375 No manual entry for mts.conf.
1379 % echo ".so man5/mh-tailor.5" > mts.conf.5
1381 done in the man5 directory. We need to add 'mts.conf.5' as a
1382 reference sourcing mh-tailor.5.
1384 Mon May 08 23:51:55 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1386 * Doug informed me that the way I had restored the "lost" version
1387 histories was wrong, because `cvs checkout's of old versions of
1388 nmh wouldn't work properly. It occurs to me that this could be
1389 fixed by simply deleting those tags in the new-location *,v files,
1390 but oh well. I'm putting everything back to the way Doug
1391 originally had it. To get the old version history for a file that
1392 used to be in the top directory, you'll need to "blindly" do a
1393 `cvs log' there (even though you won't have a local copy of the
1394 file in that directory). `cvs diff' will no longer be able to
1395 diff pre-move versions vs. post-move versions -- you'll have to do
1396 a lot of manual gyrations with `cvs checkout' and then use `diff'.
1398 * I had alphabetized the --configure options in the --help output
1399 awhile back, but Shantonu added --enable-apop just under
1400 --enable-pop. Put it in alphabetical order and clarified what
1401 --enable-apop does vs. --enable-pop and --with-krb4. Also changed
1402 --with-mts help line from "mail transport agent" to "mail
1403 transport agent/service" so the 's' in "mts" doesn't seem to come
1406 * Added two steps to "releasing nmh" in README.developers. After
1407 making the tarball, it's a good idea to diff the tree vs. the CVS
1408 tree to make sure no files got left out, and then to chown the
1409 files so that they're owned by root, preventing a Trojaning attack
1410 by a malicious remote user with a UID matching yours.
1412 * Changed DIFFERENCES to say that RPOP is not currently supported
1413 rather than implying it by saying that APOP, KPOP, and POP[3] are.
1415 Sun May 07 18:16:43 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1417 * Imported NetBSD version of getpass() and made extensive
1418 revisions for compatibility with programs that pipe the password
1419 to stdin, such as exmh.
1421 * Removed tests for system ruserpass() which sometimes gave
1422 phantom positive results. Also, bext to use internal functions if
1423 we ever want to change .netrc format to something else, or access
1426 Sat May 06 08:28:09 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1428 * Restored lost version histories for those moved files by doing a
1429 manual `mv' in the CVSROOT on mhost. CVS badly needs a `cvs mv'
1430 command so that you can move files (without having physical access
1431 to the CVSROOT) without losing versioning. Put MACHINES back at
1432 the top level as it needs to be read before building. Fixed DIST
1433 variable in {.,docs}/Makefile.in to reflect that and to add
1434 missing entry for "INSTALL" file.
1436 Sat May 06 13:13:07 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1438 * Re-cleaned up nmh documentation (by moving things to docs
1439 subdir) and modified Makefile & configure.in to handle the change.
1441 Mon Apr 17 21:28:40 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1443 * Scott Blachowicz pointed out that the configure --help output
1444 for --enable-masquerade was misleading. Clarified.
1446 Mon Apr 17 19:01:00 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1448 * APOP support can be compiled in to inc and msgchk using
1451 * To access an APOP host, specify -apop on the command line
1452 along with any -host or -user option.
1454 Fri Apr 14 23:10:44 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1456 * Upped the version number to 1.0.4+dev until the next nmh release.
1458 * Added a "releasing nmh" section to README.developers, while the
1459 process was fresh in my mind.
1461 Fri Apr 14 18:21:34 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1463 * Added new files README.developers, ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6, and
1464 ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html to DIST target in Makefile.in.
1466 * Released nmh-1.0.4.
1468 Tue Apr 11 21:37:03 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1470 * Applied Brian Campbell <bacam@tardis.ed.ac.uk>'s mhn.defaults.sh
1473 It appears that there shouldn't be quotes around the %s in the
1474 iso-8859-1 charset entry; xterm passes the remaining arguments
1475 to the program, quoting them means that xterm thinks they're
1476 part of the program's name.
1478 This %s isn't the same as the "Insert content subtype" one from
1479 mhshow-show-* -- it doesn't come from MIME headers and is safe not
1482 Sun Apr 09 13:03:59 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1484 * added check in fmt_compile() to handle a single-character
1485 format string. fmt_compile() depends on having an array of
1486 format characters with an empty item at the end. A
1487 single-character format would cause programs using this
1488 function to segfault because the algorithm used to decide on
1489 the length of the array mistakenly created a single-item array
1490 when the format string was one character. This eventually
1491 caused problems when the program attempted to test item+1
1494 Thu Apr 06 21:53:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1496 * Richard Coleman threw out a lot of old MH-specific files in nmh.
1497 Much of the stuff, indeed, is not worth saving, but there are
1498 nuggets that are very worthwhile, and should probably be added
1499 back in. Most important, IMHO, are the MH change logs, as they
1500 can help answer questions like "Why is this code like this?" or
1501 "How long has this been broken?" or "What was this ever used for?"
1503 I've added a new file to the nmh tree called
1504 ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6. It's cobbled together from the
1505 mh-6.8.4/papers/mh*/MHCHANGES files. I've re-ordered the entries
1506 to go from newest at the top to oldest at the bottom to match the
1507 ChangeLog convention. Unfortunately there are no change logs for
1508 versions of MH prior to 3 in the MH tar files available at
1509 <ftp://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/mh>. Also, it appears to me that there
1510 are MH-6.6 changes that aren't documented in the logs.
1512 I've also added ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html. This is
1513 based on mh-6.8.4/papers/changes/mh-changes.ms. The nroff format
1514 and its "catman"-type output are a pain to deal with, but I was
1515 loath to throw away the formatting, so I converted the file to
1516 HTML. The only actual markup in the body are the "<B>" and "<U>"
1517 tags, and "<" and ">" instead of '<' and '>', so it's quite
1518 doable to view the file in plain ASCII mode as well. Note that
1519 some of the changes this file documents as having been made in
1520 MH-6.8.4 may not be present in nmh -- Richard started with 6.8.3
1521 and later put in certain 6.8.4 stuff.
1523 Wed Apr 05 21:09:28 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1525 * Applied Eric Schnoebelen <eric@cirr.com>'s mhshowsbr.c patch
1526 fixing apparent bugs in Dan Winship's new security quoting code:
1528 Since upgrading, I've been getting the following errors
1529 while attempting to process some MIME messages:
1531 (1) Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
1536 (2) line 1/10 (END)Segmentation fault (core dumped)
1538 (2) appears to be due to the testing of an unset pointer in
1539 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux(). (1) appears to be caused by
1540 mis-quoting a filename being handed to the shell in
1541 mhshowsbr.c:show_content_aux().
1543 Resolving the pointer reference issue in
1544 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux() turned up a similar mis-quoting
1545 problem in the routine.
1547 Tue Mar 28 16:17:39 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1549 * Applied Todd.Miller@courtesan.com's patch to dropsbr.c to
1550 prevent core dumping on packf. Here's the note from his message:
1552 Since sizeof(buffer) == sizeof(tmpbuffer) packf will dump
1553 core on a file w/o a From line with a line >= BUFSIZ.
1554 I noticed this because I had a junk file in my mail
1557 Fri Mar 17 11:59:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1559 * wesley.craig@umich.edu did not document his previous KPOP patch,
1560 so I did so, and asked him to check what I wrote. Unfortunately
1561 he didn't notice my misunderstanding of his patch. I wrote that
1562 if you #define POPSERVICE "kpop", inc and msgchk will use KPOP
1563 exclusively, but if you leave it as "pop3", you can use Wesley's
1564 new -kpop switch on a given invocation. Instead, however, -kpop
1565 turned out to be necessary on every invocation, and a KPOP user
1566 complained. Applied Wesley's new patch, which makes things work
1567 like I thought his original patch did. After that, did one more
1568 clarifying pass to the documentation in inc.man and msgchk.man.
1570 Wed Mar 15 18:45:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1572 * When I fixed the long-standing makedir() bugs in January, I had
1573 the code call strtoul(..., 0), which I believed to be safe as all
1574 modes specified as ASCII constants in the nmh code started with a
1575 leading zero (signifying octal), which I did as it would work if
1576 internal constants were ever changed to hex. Unfortunately I was
1577 unaware of the "Folder-Protect:" .mh_profile entry, which
1578 mh-profile.man documents as an octal-only constant, with no
1579 leading zero required. I've changed the strtoul() call to an
1580 atooi() call and removed the misleading leading zeroes on the
1581 ASCII octal constants in the code and man pages. Also changed the
1582 "Folder-Protect:" example in the man page to something more
1583 interesting than a duplication of the default.
1585 * When I added my --enable-masquerade option, you'll note that I
1586 didn't make it --enable-nmh-masquerade. I find the --enable-nmh-*
1587 options too wordy and I'm not sure why Richard went that route.
1588 I've renamed them to just --enable-*, but the old versions will
1589 still work as well (they just aren't advertised).
1591 * Added a line to the "nmh configuration" output saying whether
1594 * Added a new README.developers file. From the file:
1596 This file is intended to provide a few tips for anyone doing
1597 development on nmh. Developers who learn things "the hard
1598 way" about the nmh codebase (as opposed to local info best
1599 encoded in a comment) are encouraged to share their wisdom
1602 Currently the topics are "autoconf files" and "directory structure".
1604 Tue Mar 14 12:41:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1606 * Applied, after some finessing,
1607 Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s --with-smtpservers patch:
1609 Here's a patch that allows you to add
1611 --with-smtpservers=<some.host.name>
1613 to the ./configure command line to set the "servers: " line in
1614 etc/mts.conf. Around here, we use "mailhost" so that all
1615 machines in the current domain just talk to a central machine
1616 and nothing else runs an MTA. Now, I can use
1618 --with-smtpservers=mailhost
1620 instead of having to remember to fix this by hand (and often
1621 forgetting to do so!).
1623 * Inspired by Simon's patch, added an --enable-masquerade option
1624 to configure. It will set the "masquerade:" line of mts.conf.
1625 You may specify a subset of the three types of masquerading, like
1626 --enable-masquerade="draft_from mmailid", or leave off explicit
1627 arguments to enable all three types.
1629 * Alphabetized the --enable and --with options in configure.in and
1630 INSTALL and added documentation of the two new options to the latter.
1632 * Added new dependency for mts.conf: Makefile. If this isn't
1633 done, then when you reconfigure nmh with new values for
1634 --enable-masquerade or --with-smtpservers, you'll fail to get an
1635 updated copy of mts.conf.
1637 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtimep.lex patch:
1639 It seems that some MUA's didn't handle y2k very well - ELM
1640 seems to be one of them, and Ultrix's DXmail (based on MH!).
1641 I've got a few emails this month that look like:
1643 575 Jan 00 Xxxxxx Xxxx 3603 ...
1645 22+ Jan 00 Xxx Xxxxx 1771 ...
1647 The first has "15 Jan 100" as the date and the second has
1648 "19 Jan 00" as the date. The following works around this so
1649 that scan, show, sortm, etc work ok.
1651 I put Simon's patch under the control of a new #define called
1652 FIX_NON_Y2K_COMPLIANT_MUA_DATES. There's some commentary in
1653 acconfig.h about when you might not want to #define it.
1655 * Created new dtimep.c-lexed with Simon's change using dtimep.lex
1656 lexed on Solaris 2.6. Added missing dependency in
1657 zotnet/tws/Makefile.in for dtimep.c: dtimep.c-lexed.
1659 * Added scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD format files.
1661 Mon Mar 13 21:32:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1663 * Applied Sullivan N. Beck <sbeck@cise.ufl.edu>'s mhshow-suffix patch:
1665 With the patch below, you can add lines like:
1667 mhshow-suffix-application/msword: .doc
1668 mhshow-suffix-application/PostScript: .ps
1670 to the mhn.defaults file to append the given suffix to a
1671 scratch file. This allows applications which require a
1672 certain suffix to run properly.
1674 * Removed -force_html from lynx entry in mhn.defaults.sh (I
1675 believe older versions of lynx lack that option) and added
1676 "mhshow-suffix-text/html: .html".
1678 * Modified username_extension masquerading to only use the
1679 extended address on generated [Resent-]From: lines and SMTP
1680 envelope From:. With Neil's original implementation, nmh's global
1681 idea of the username was changed, which would result in inc lying
1682 and saying you had no new mail because it was looking for a
1683 mailbox called, for instance, "dan-nmh" (where username was "dan"
1684 and $USERNAME_EXTENSION was "-nmh").
1686 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtime.c patch:
1688 There's a wrap-around problem that affects the implementation
1689 of Zeller's congruence in dtime.c. This causes the day-of-week
1690 calculations to fail for dates after Feb 29, 2000 (probably up
1691 until some year far in the future).
1693 Mon Mar 06 12:20:20 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1695 * Applied Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s msh.c patch:
1697 I finally tracked down the problem in msh that was causing
1698 errors whenever I tried to examine a 'mmdf' style mailbox.
1700 It turns out that not enough memory was being allocated with
1701 calloc(), causing memory pointers to be overwritten and
1704 Fri Mar 03 16:07:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1706 * Changed the new "plussed_user" option to mts.conf's
1707 "masquerade:" to "username_extension" after getting feedback from
1708 qmail users, who use '-' as a separator rather than '+'. Removed
1709 checking of $USERPLUS variable. Now check $USERNAME_EXTENSION,
1710 which needs to include the appropriate separator for your MTA
1711 ('-', '+', or whatever) as its first character.
1713 Thu Mar 02 23:04:30 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1715 * Added a new "boolean" type to mh.h and TRUE and FALSE constants.
1717 * Added a note to DIFFERENCES stating that it's out-of-date
1718 (Richard was the last one to update it) and that we should
1719 consider only documenting incompatibilities with MH there.
1721 * Implemented (and documented) a third kind of username
1722 masquerading: "plussed user" masquerading. This one was suggested
1723 by Neil Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>. It's based on sendmail's
1724 "plussed user" feature, where mail sent to <user>+<string> will be
1725 delivered to <user>. When it's enabled, it's controlled by the
1726 $USERPLUS environment variable. How is it enabled? Well, that
1729 * Renamed the "mmailid:" setting in mts.conf to "masquerade:", and
1730 changed it so that rather than being a boolean, it can be set to
1731 any combination of the three values "draft_from", "mmailid", and
1732 "plussed_user". Thus it is now possible to enable the three types
1733 of masquerading individually.
1735 * Fixed a bug with "mmailid" masquerading (dating back to MH?)
1736 where if it was turned on, ','s would no longer be considered
1737 GECOS field delimiters.
1739 Wed Mar 01 23:30:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1741 * Changed the GECOS-field '&' translation behavior to be
1742 controlled by the BSD42 #define rather than GCOS_HACK, since it's
1743 apparently always appropriate on OSes where BSD42 is #defined, and
1744 never appropriate on any other OSes. Thanks to Kimmo Suominen for
1745 responding to my "What is this code here for?" comment in mts.c
1746 and explaining the feature.
1748 Mon Feb 28 21:50:29 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1750 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3+dev (ideally this should be
1751 done by whoever makes a release tar file, immediately after doing
1754 * Applied Paul Fox <pgf-spam@foxharp.boston.ma.us>'s scansbr.c
1755 patch, posted to comp.mail.mh, which he says prevents loss of mail
1756 when inc'ing into a full filesystem.
1758 * Changed "echo > stamp-h.in" in Makefile.in to "date > stamp-h.in"
1759 so that stamp-h.in will be different each time configure.in and
1760 related files are changed, making it easier to check it in (which
1761 is necessary to prevent unnecessary autoconf calls).
1763 * My declaration of initgroups() in slocal.c to eliminate the "no
1764 prototype" warning wasn't portable (FreeBSD 3.[23] choked). Now
1765 use AC_EGREP_HEADER to see where initgroups() is declared, if
1768 Sun Feb 20 12:17:15 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1770 * Fix security hole in mhshowsbr.c which allowed untrusted shell
1771 code to be executed.
1773 * Released nmh 1.0.3.
1775 Thu Feb 10 10:54:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1777 * Oops. %-escapes on mhstore lines in mhn.defaults.sh should not
1778 be surrounded by single quotes, as a shell is not spawned when
1779 just saving files, and the filenames will end up with literal
1780 quotes embedded in them.
1782 Fri Feb 04 12:29:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1784 * Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
1785 got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
1786 the -help output. One theory is that they were making reference
1787 to the fact that clearly you know about the -help option since
1788 you're currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea
1789 to overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
1790 supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
1793 The other theory is that because you can say something like
1794 "mhstore -" and get "mhstore: - ambiguous. It matches" followed
1795 by the same list of switches you get with -help, they were saying
1796 you can "sorta" abbreviate "-help" as "-". You don't get the
1797 "Usage:" string, though, so it's not really the same thing.
1799 Thu Feb 03 17:52:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1801 * Applied wesley.craig@umich.edu's KPOP patches. According to him:
1803 The following patch fixes a problem with requesting a
1804 service key for a machine that has multiple 'A' records. It
1805 also makes "-kpop" a command line option, for users who
1806 would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".
1808 Did no testing of the new features, as I don't have access to a
1811 * Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
1813 * Modified INSTALL and config.h.in to reflect the new -kpop feature.
1815 Fri Jan 28 17:39:24 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1817 * All %-escapes in mhn.defaults that actually expand to something
1818 should be surrounded by single quotes. Added quotes to the ones
1819 in mhn.defaults.sh that were missing them.
1821 * Added check for lynx to write mhshow-show-text/html line in
1824 Thu Jan 27 12:22:25 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1826 * makedir() had multiple bugs dating back to MH. An octal
1827 constant was apparently being interpreted as decimal, resulting in
1828 directories with no user read or execute permissions, making
1829 nested directory creation fail. And there wasn't even an
1830 _attempt_ to set desired permissions (e.g. from "Folder-Protect:"
1831 in .mh_profile) on the outer directories of a nested directory.
1833 * A second `make install' would always fail because the check for
1834 whether mh_profile.5 existed was written incorrectly.
1836 Wed Jan 26 02:22:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1838 * Added documentation on both types of masquerading to post's man
1841 Tue Jan 25 22:58:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1843 * Doug's portability fix of my setgid inc autodetection had a
1844 caching bug -- if you re-ran configure, uip/Makefile would be
1845 corrupted, and installation would bomb out on OSes where inc needs
1848 * Implemented a new kind of email address masquerading. Usually,
1849 when a user writes a custom "From:" header in a draft, nmh uses it
1850 rather than generating one. However, the user's true address is
1851 used in the SMTP envelope "From:" and is revealed in the "Sender:"
1852 header. Now, when mmailid is set to non-zero, the envelope
1853 "From:" uses the address specified in the draft "From:" header,
1854 and there is no "Sender:" header. This is useful when sending on
1855 behalf of a remote POP3 account or when remote mail robots
1856 incorrectly use the envelope "From:" in preference to the body
1857 "From:". This processing has only been implemented for post, not
1858 for the undocumented spost (which was already missing some "From:"
1859 processing that post has).
1861 Mon Jan 24 22:26:06 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1863 * Got rid of the rest of the gcc -Wall warnings that I didn't have
1864 time for on 1999-07-15 (and, it would seem, some new ones people
1865 introduced since then). The primary ones were the warnings that
1866 default prototypes were being used for [v]snprintf() and
1867 str[n]casecmp(). As of right now, there are _no_ compilation
1868 warnings except on dtimep.c-lexed (at least under AIX 4.1.5 and
1871 Sun Jan 2 23:42:18 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1873 * Move mhtest from bindir to libdir.
1875 * Move sendfiles from libdir to bindir.
1877 * Updated sendfiles manpage to reflect this change.
1879 * Added documentation for -build and -file switches to repl and
1880 forw manpages (patch from Peter Maydell).
1882 * Fixed interaction between specifying -cc in profile and -group on
1885 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1887 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
1888 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
1889 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
1892 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1894 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
1895 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
1896 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
1897 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
1898 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
1899 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).
1901 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1903 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
1905 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1907 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
1908 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
1909 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
1910 caught again. This works for now.
1912 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
1914 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1916 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
1917 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
1919 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1921 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
1922 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
1924 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
1926 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
1928 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1930 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
1931 changes. Both need more cleanup.
1933 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1935 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
1936 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
1937 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
1938 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
1939 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
1942 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1944 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
1945 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
1946 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
1948 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
1949 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
1952 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1954 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
1955 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
1956 to a directory on another device with more free space.
1958 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1960 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
1961 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
1963 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1965 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
1968 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
1969 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
1971 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
1972 macros, regardless of platform.
1974 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
1975 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1977 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
1978 with x-conversions=gzip.
1980 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1982 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
1985 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
1986 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
1987 implicit definition of ioctl().
1989 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
1990 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
1991 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
1992 want to mess with them.
1994 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1996 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
1997 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
1999 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
2000 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
2002 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
2003 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
2004 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
2006 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
2007 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
2008 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
2010 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
2011 function initgroups.
2013 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
2016 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
2017 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
2020 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
2021 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
2024 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
2025 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
2029 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2031 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
2032 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
2033 preventing compilation on at least linux.
2035 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
2036 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
2038 Thu Sep 09 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2040 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
2042 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
2043 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
2044 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
2045 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
2047 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
2048 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
2050 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
2052 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
2054 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
2056 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
2057 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
2059 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
2061 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
2062 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
2064 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
2065 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
2066 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
2067 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
2069 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
2070 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
2072 Sat Jun 09 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2074 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
2075 substitute it for mktemp if available.
2077 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2079 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
2080 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
2083 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
2085 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
2087 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
2089 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
2090 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
2092 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
2093 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
2094 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
2096 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
2097 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
2098 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
2100 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
2101 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
2102 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
2104 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
2105 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
2108 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
2109 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
2111 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
2112 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
2114 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
2115 <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
2117 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
2118 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
2119 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
2121 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
2122 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
2124 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
2125 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
2126 <elleron@servtech.com>.
2128 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
2129 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
2132 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
2133 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
2135 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
2136 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
2137 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
2138 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
2140 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
2141 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
2143 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2147 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
2148 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
2149 would not be changed.
2151 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
2152 one from the Apache web server.
2154 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
2155 (this should have been done a long time ago).
2157 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
2158 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
2159 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
2161 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
2163 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
2165 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
2166 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
2169 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
2170 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
2171 removes a bad race condition.
2173 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
2176 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
2177 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
2178 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
2180 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
2181 sequence information.
2183 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
2184 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
2186 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
2189 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
2192 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
2194 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
2195 interpret 034 as octal.
2197 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
2199 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
2200 mhstore, and mhbuild.
2202 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
2203 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
2205 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
2206 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
2208 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
2209 in the c_cefile structure when building.
2211 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
2212 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
2214 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
2215 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
2216 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
2218 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
2219 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
2220 and mhshow. Updated man pages
2222 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
2224 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
2226 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
2227 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
2230 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
2232 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
2233 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
2235 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
2236 header field information.
2238 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
2239 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
2241 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
2242 values when parsing a content.
2244 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
2245 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
2247 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
2248 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
2250 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
2251 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
2253 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
2254 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
2256 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
2258 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
2260 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
2262 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
2264 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
2265 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
2268 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
2269 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
2271 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
2272 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
2273 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
2274 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
2275 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
2276 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
2279 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
2281 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
2282 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
2283 buffer length checks for this parameter.
2285 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
2286 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
2288 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
2290 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
2291 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
2292 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
2293 of the limits on the length of command lines.
2295 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
2296 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
2299 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
2300 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
2301 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
2302 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
2305 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2307 * Released nmh-0.27.
2309 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
2310 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
2312 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
2313 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
2314 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
2315 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
2318 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
2319 mhbuild returns an error.
2321 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
2322 rename the draft file.
2324 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
2325 use a global variable.
2327 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
2328 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
2330 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
2331 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
2333 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
2334 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
2335 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
2337 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
2338 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
2340 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
2341 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
2344 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
2345 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
2348 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
2349 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
2351 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
2352 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
2353 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
2355 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
2356 to new function output_content_folder.
2358 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
2359 new function output_content_file.
2361 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
2362 to new function parse_format_string.
2364 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
2365 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
2366 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
2367 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
2369 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
2370 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
2371 message/external file from ftp.
2373 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
2374 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
2375 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
2377 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
2378 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
2381 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
2384 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
2385 new file mhstoresbr.c
2387 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
2390 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
2391 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
2393 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
2394 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
2396 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
2397 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
2398 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
2400 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
2402 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
2404 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
2405 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
2408 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
2409 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
2411 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
2414 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
2416 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2418 * Released nmh-0.26.
2420 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
2421 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
2422 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
2423 is still the same (dashstuffing).
2425 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
2426 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
2427 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
2428 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
2429 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
2431 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
2432 But it is not on by default.
2434 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
2435 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
2437 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
2439 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
2441 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
2443 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
2445 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
2446 number of the "cur" message when packing.
2448 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2450 * Released nmh-0.25.
2452 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
2453 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
2454 uses the original name of the library.
2456 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
2457 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
2460 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
2461 list_content and list_debug.
2463 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
2465 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
2466 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.
2468 1998-02-27 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2470 * Released nmh-0.24.
2472 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
2474 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
2475 are given, that order doesn't matter.
2477 * Fix bug in seq_list.c when realloc'ing for
2478 large sequence line.
2480 1998-02-23 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2482 * Released nmh-0.23.
2484 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
2486 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
2487 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan
2488 content, decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary
2489 string). I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
2491 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
2492 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
2495 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
2497 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
2499 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
2501 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
2502 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
2504 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
2505 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.
2507 * Add note to MACHINES file that on Linux, configure
2508 doesn't find the functions sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
2510 * Fix configuration for machines that don't have (or find)
2511 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
2513 1998-02-11 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2515 * Released nmh-0.22.
2517 * Add a configure check for sigsetjmp. Add some conditional
2518 #define's in h/signals.h in case it's not found.
2520 * Added additional notes about -auto switch in mhn man page.
2522 * Added note about MM_CHARSET environment variable to
2523 mh-profile(5) man page.
2525 * Fix signal problem in mhn.c (change setjmp/longjmp to
2526 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp).
2528 1998-02-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2530 * Released nmh-0.22-pre1.
2532 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
2533 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
2535 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
2537 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
2538 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
2539 entry point for parsing MIME files.
2541 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
2542 source message on the standard input.
2544 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
2546 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
2547 rather than -rfc934mode.
2549 * Fix mhbuild, so that Content-Description and RFC-822 comments
2550 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
2553 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
2554 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).
2556 * Restore HP specific code to zotnet/tws/lexstring.c. Apparently
2559 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2561 * Released nmh-0.21.
2563 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
2564 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.
2566 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what transfer
2569 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what character set
2570 to use for text contents.
2572 * Removed old hpux specific code from zotnet/tws/lexstring.c
2574 1998-02-02 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2576 * Released nmh-0.21-pre2.
2578 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
2580 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
2581 header fields as per RFC-2047.
2583 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
2584 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
2585 spaces between encoded word are.
2587 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
2589 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
2590 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
2592 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
2593 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
2594 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
2596 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
2598 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
2599 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
2601 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.
2603 * Added support for %(decode) to fmtdump.c.
2605 * check_charset() now accepts US-ASCII as a subset of any
2606 ISO-8859-X character set.
2608 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
2611 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
2612 permissions, not write permissions.
2614 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
2615 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
2617 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
2620 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2622 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
2624 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
2625 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
2627 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
2628 message contains valid character set.
2630 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
2631 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
2633 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
2634 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
2636 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
2637 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
2638 between an encoded word and normal text.
2640 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
2641 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
2643 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
2644 as a RFC-2047 header field.
2646 * The command install-mh now recognizes the switches -version
2649 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
2650 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
2653 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
2654 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
2656 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
2657 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
2659 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
2661 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2663 * Released nmh-0.20.
2665 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
2667 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.
2669 * Changed the default format file for mhl (mhl.format) to
2670 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
2671 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
2673 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
2674 and the To: line was missing.
2676 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
2678 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2680 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
2682 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
2683 watch the POP transaction.
2685 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
2686 first, and use it if available.
2688 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
2689 first, and use it if available.
2691 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2693 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
2695 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
2696 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
2697 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
2700 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
2701 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
2702 returns the state FLDPLUS.
2704 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
2705 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
2708 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
2710 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
2711 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
2713 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
2715 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
2716 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
2718 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
2719 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
2720 message to which you are replying.
2722 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
2723 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
2724 making group replies.
2726 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
2728 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2730 * Released nmh-0.19.
2732 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
2733 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
2735 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
2736 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
2737 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
2738 to the end of the man page.
2740 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
2741 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
2742 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
2743 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
2744 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
2745 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
2747 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
2750 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
2751 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
2752 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
2754 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
2755 the next available number above the message number you wish
2758 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
2759 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
2761 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
2762 file sbr/seq_print.c
2764 * flist will now update the current folder.
2766 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
2767 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
2768 but now undocumented.
2770 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
2773 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
2774 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
2776 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
2778 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
2779 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
2781 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2783 * Released nmh-0.18.
2785 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
2786 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
2787 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
2789 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
2790 retains the public/private status of sequences.
2792 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
2793 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
2794 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
2795 previous public/private status.
2797 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
2800 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
2803 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
2804 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
2805 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
2807 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
2808 take option to determine whether it should get current
2809 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
2810 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
2812 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
2814 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
2815 wait for stopped processes.
2817 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
2818 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
2820 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2822 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
2824 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
2825 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
2827 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
2828 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
2830 * Change the way that memory for message status is
2831 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
2832 the folder/message structure. This required changing
2833 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
2835 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
2838 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
2841 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
2843 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
2844 the debugging output.
2846 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
2847 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
2849 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2851 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
2853 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
2854 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
2856 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
2858 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
2859 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
2860 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
2861 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
2862 in the given sequence.
2864 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
2865 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
2866 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
2867 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
2868 subdirectories of a given directory.
2870 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
2871 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
2872 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
2874 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
2875 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
2877 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
2879 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
2882 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
2883 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
2884 fields are now calculated at runtime.
2886 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
2887 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
2888 are calculated at runtime.
2890 Sun Nov 30 19:14:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2892 * Released nmh-0.18-pre2.
2894 * Add paragraph to man page for install-mh and to INSTALL file
2895 about checking for global mh.profile.
2897 * Renamed m_find() to context_find().
2898 Renamed m_replace() to context_replace().
2899 Renamed m_delete() to context_del().
2900 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
2901 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
2902 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
2904 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
2905 adding message to folder itself.
2907 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
2908 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
2909 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
2912 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
2913 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
2916 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
2917 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
2918 is the same as the direct smtp code).
2920 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
2921 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
2923 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
2924 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
2925 code to use it yet).
2927 Thu Nov 13 18:42:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2929 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.
2931 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never
2932 called with a value larger than 30 mintues.
2934 * Fixed race condition in rmm and refile, so that
2935 context is updated before external rmmproc is called.
2937 * Removed all the OVERHEAD code.
2939 * Move code to add message to folder from refile.c
2942 Fri Jul 25 19:39:29 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2944 * Did some rearranging of the internals of inc.c.
2946 * Make -inplace the default for anno, forw, dist, and repl.
2948 * Changed --enable-smtp to --with-mts={smtp,sendmail}
2950 * Created new directory mts/sendmail for direct sendmail
2951 interface (although it currently still uses SMTP).
2953 * Removed all the TMA (trusted mail agent) code
2955 * Removed all the TTYD (terminal access daemon) code
2957 * Removed all the MF (uucp filtering) code.
2959 * Removed all the code for BERK.
2961 * Removed all the code for stand-alone delivery (MHMTS).
2963 * Split the file mts/sendmail/smail.c into sendmail.c and
2964 smtp.c. Changed the name of the directory to mts/smtp.
2966 * Changed autoconf to use @sysconfdir@ for location of
2967 configuration files.
2969 * Changed #define in mhn.c from FTP to BUILTIN_FTP.
2971 Mon Jul 21 03:22:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2973 * Released nmh-0.17.
2975 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
2977 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
2978 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
2980 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
2983 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
2984 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
2986 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
2987 number of refiled message.
2989 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
2991 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
2992 for return value of wait().
2994 * Change configure to also check /bin for "more".
2996 Sat Jul 12 00:02:23 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2998 * Released nmh-0.16.
3000 Mon Jun 23 20:13:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3002 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
3004 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
3005 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
3006 deal with binary messages, yet).
3008 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
3010 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
3012 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
3013 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
3014 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
3015 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
3016 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
3017 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
3019 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
3020 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
3022 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
3023 From MH-6.8.4 patch.
3025 * Fix double free of ctinfo in user_content when using
3026 #forw with single message. From John MacMillan (and
3029 * Changed -mhnproc switch for show, to -showmimeproc.
3031 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".
3033 * Added "mime" option to "whatnow", which calls the program
3034 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
3037 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
3040 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
3042 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
3043 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
3044 which used unsigned chars by default.
3046 Sat Jun 21 01:21:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3048 * Released nmh-0.15.
3050 * Added new form "scan.unseen" to distribution. It marks messages

3053 * Do some rearranging of date/time code in zotnet/tws/dtime.c
3055 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
3057 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
3060 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
3061 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
3062 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
3064 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
3065 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
3067 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
3069 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
3070 they conflict with defines on AIX.
3072 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
3073 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
3074 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
3075 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
3077 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
3078 and put in own subroutine.
3080 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
3081 and put in own subroutine.
3083 * Moved code to remove messages from folder into own
3084 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and
3085 refile.c to use new routine.
3087 Fri May 16 06:09:31 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3089 * Renamed m_seqok to seq_nameok.
3091 * Changed m_setunseen, msh, mshcmds, flist, and scan to use
3094 * Changed m_seqflag to return the number of a sequence rather
3095 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
3096 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
3098 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
3101 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before
3102 adding message to sequence.
3104 * Renamed function m_setvis to m_setunseen, and renamed
3105 corresponding file in sbr.
3107 * Renamed function m_setseq to m_setprev, and renamed corresponding
3110 * Changed mark.c and pick.c to use m_seqaddsel and m_seqdelsel.
3112 * Added new function m_seqdelsel to m_seqdel.c, which deletes
3113 all selected messages from a sequence.
3115 * Added new function m_seqaddsel to m_seqadd.c, which adds all
3116 selected messages to a sequence.
3118 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,
3121 Thu May 15 00:53:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3123 * Renamed function pack_folder to m_packfolder, and moved it
3124 from uip/folder.c into its own file sbr/m_packfolder.c
3126 Wed May 14 23:38:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3128 * Changed function m_gmsg to m_readfolder. Renamed file
3129 sbr/m_gmsg.c to sbr/m_readfolder.c.
3131 Mon May 5 19:57:11 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3133 * Expanded rcvtty man page, and added small patch from
3134 MH-6.8.4 distribution.

3138 * Released nmh-0.14.
3140 * Comment out configure test and code for tgetent to allocate its
3141 own termcap buffer when passed a NULL argument.
3143 Sat Apr 26 03:46:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3145 * Added new options `-checkmime', `-nocheckmime', and `-mhnproc'
3146 to show. Restructured code to handle options to various
3147 `procs' better. Deprecated `-noshowproc' option and NOMHNPROC
3148 environment variable.
3150 * Added new man page `mh-draft' which documents the
3151 draft folder facility in nmh.
3153 * Renamed fmtsbr.h to fmt_scan.h. Renamed fmtcompile.h
3156 * split fmtsbr.c into fmt_scan.c and fmt_new.c. Renamed
3157 fmtcompile.c to fmt_compile.c, and formataddr.c to
3160 * `send -help' wasn't showing the -(no)mime and -split
3163 Fri Apr 25 02:50:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3165 * Released nmh-0.13.
3167 * Changed mhpath so it doesn't abort if a message sequence
3168 such as "mhpath all" expands to more than 1000 messages.
3169 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
3170 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
3173 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
3174 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
3176 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3178 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if
3179 necessary. So `folders' can now handle more than 300 folders.
3181 Tue Apr 22 14:01:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3183 * Change configure to use a compile check to see if the tm struct
3184 has tm_gmtoff, rather than using egrep.
3186 Mon Apr 21 02:19:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3188 * Released nmh-0.12.
3190 * Had set_exists and unset_exists macros backwards.

3196 * Added documentation to mh-profile.man about the various
3197 `procs' (mhlproc, showproc, lproc, etc...).
3199 * Replace the bit twiddling for SELECTED, UNSEEN, and
3200 mp->attrstats with macros.
3202 * If system doesn't have SIGEMT (like Linux), then use SIGTERM
3205 * Change fstat to stat in m_gmsg.c since Linux wants
3208 * Merge Linux patch sent in by Michel Oosterhof (original
3209 patch from bsa@kf8nh.wariat.org).
3211 * Document an undocumented MH feature. mhn -form mhl.null
3212 will suppress the display of the message header.
3214 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
3216 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c
3217 and mshcmds.c, rather than hard coding in /bin/cat.
3219 * Add mhnproc to the list of `procs' in mh-profile.man.
3221 * Add configure test for lorder and tsort commands.
3223 * Commented out the padding in the `msgs` struct in h/mh.h
3225 * Change m_gmsg.c to allocate elements to the `info' array by
3226 500 elements at a time (rather than MAXFOLDERS / 5).
3228 * Add note to man page for mhmail that zero length messages are
3229 not sent. Need to use -body "" to send empty messages.
3231 * zotnet/mts/mts.c : compare character with '\0', not NULL.
3233 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
3235 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
3236 folder/message structure when done with folder.
3238 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is
3239 defined even if message is missing "From " line.
3241 Mon Mar 31 03:37:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3243 * Released nmh-0.10.

3250 Thu Mar 20 03:21:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3252 * Reversed previous decision to retain "From " lines in slocal.
3253 The "From " line is now removed from all messages.
3255 * inc now saves the date from the "From " envelope in the
3256 Delivery-Date header for all messages.
3258 * sbr/m_getfld.c: Clean up processing of Return-Path and
3259 Delivery-Date from the "From " envelope.
3261 Mon Mar 17 19:03:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3263 * client.c: cast iaddr to int before comparing return value
3264 of inet_addr with NOTOK.
3266 Tue Mar 11 04:38:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3268 * Grep test for signal names was failing on some OS'es because

3271 Sat Mar 8 01:58:22 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3273 * Released nmh-0.09.
3275 * Move config files and format files to *.old before installing.
3277 * Add configure check for killpg.

3289 Tue Mar 4 03:10:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3291 * ruserpass.c : removed conflicting prototypes.
3293 * rcvtty.c : Fixed rcvtty to obey terminal permissions granted
3294 by `mesg' command. Previously only worked on BSD machines.
3296 Mon Mar 3 00:18:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3298 * rcvtty.c : Changed to use #define UTMP_FILE (if exists) rather
3299 than hard coded "/etc/utmp".
3301 * Released nmh-0.08.
3303 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
3304 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of
3305 locking database itself.
3307 Thu Feb 27 05:28:09 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3309 * Added slocal action `mmdf' to deliver to a file in mmdf format.
3311 * Changed the slocal actions `file' and `>' to always deliver in
3312 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
3315 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
3316 rather than mmdf format.
3318 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
3319 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
3320 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
3321 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
3323 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
3325 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3327 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
3330 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
3331 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
3332 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
3334 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
3335 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
3336 rcvpack so you can choose the preferred format.
3338 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3340 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
3341 can still easily change this in config.h).
3343 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
3344 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
3345 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
3347 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3349 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather
3350 than tzset and external timezone variable.
3352 Thu Feb 13 00:35:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3354 * Fixed typo in ruserpass.c in the variable toktabs.
3356 * When ruserpass was added to LIBOBJS, it was missing
3359 * Released nmh-0.07.
3361 Tue Feb 11 01:29:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3363 * Add check to configure, so that if ruserpass, or _ruserpass
3364 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
3366 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
3367 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
3370 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
3371 built-in FTP client in mhn.
3373 * Added configure check for ushort and ulong. Change code
3374 to use ushort/ulong rather than u_short/u_long.
3376 * A couple of small cleanups in locking code.
3378 * Added configure check for gmtoff element in struct tm.
3380 * Added configure check for tzset.
3382 Fri Feb 7 03:01:57 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3384 * Released nmh-0.06.
3386 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
3387 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
3389 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
3390 many such machines around anymore.
3392 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
3393 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
3395 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
3396 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
3398 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3400 * Check lex generated file in zotnet/tws and use
3401 pre-generated version if necessary.
3403 * Released nmh-0.05.
3405 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
3406 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
3407 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
3408 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
3410 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
3411 be linked in one pass.
3413 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3415 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
3416 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
3418 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3420 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
3422 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3424 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
3425 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
3426 become the current folder.
3428 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3430 * Released nmh-0.04.
3432 * Define ospeed and PC in termsbr.c is OS doesn't have
3435 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3437 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
3438 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
3439 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
3441 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3443 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
3444 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
3446 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3448 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
3449 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
3452 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
3453 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
3455 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3457 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
3458 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
3459 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
3460 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
3461 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
3462 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
3464 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3466 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
3467 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
3469 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
3470 a file (currently need to specify full path).
3472 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3474 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
3475 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
3477 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3479 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
3480 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
3481 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
3483 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3485 * Released nmh-0.03.
3487 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
3488 .mh_sequence file existed.
3490 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
3491 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
3493 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
3494 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
3497 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3499 * Changed flist option -unseen to -[no]all. Cleaned up
3502 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3504 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
3505 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
3506 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
3508 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3510 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
3511 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
3512 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
3514 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3516 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL
3517 and allocate its own buffer. Borrowed from zsh.
3519 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
3521 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3523 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
3524 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
3525 directory from where the source code is located.
3527 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3529 * Released nmh-0.02.
3531 Wed Jan 1 17:41:52 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3533 * Split mhook man page into man pages for rcvdist, rcvpack,
3536 Tue Dec 31 03:07:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3538 * Changed code to use strerror, rather than using sys_errlist
3539 and sys_nerr directly.
3541 Mon Dec 30 02:15:25 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3543 * -compat switch from install-mh removed.
3545 * Changed the default POP port from "pop" to "pop3".
3547 Sat Dec 28 13:25:05 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3549 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
3550 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
3551 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
3552 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
3553 rather than in script.
3555 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3557 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
3559 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with
3560 macro defined on Solaris.
3562 Thu Dec 26 02:50:15 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3564 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
3565 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
3567 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
3568 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
3569 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
3570 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
3573 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3575 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
3576 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.
3578 * Fixed configure test so that termcap variable ospeed is
3581 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3583 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
3585 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included
3586 in mhn.c. Changed md5 to use memset and memcpy.
3588 Fri Dec 20 02:29:37 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3590 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
3591 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
3593 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3595 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
3596 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
3597 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
3598 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
3599 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
3600 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
3602 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3604 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
3606 * Released nmh-0.01.
3608 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
3609 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
3610 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
3613 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3615 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
3618 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3620 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
3621 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
3623 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3625 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
3626 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
3627 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
3628 script to find_program.
3630 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3632 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
3633 speed up -recurse option.
3635 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
3636 yet, but it compiles :-)
3638 * Changed default location for install to
3639 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
3640 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
3641 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
3644 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
3645 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
3646 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
