3 * Oops. %-escapes on mhstore lines in mhn.defaults.sh should not
4 be surrounded by single quotes, as a shell is not spawned when
5 just saving files, and the filenames will end up with literal
6 quotes embedded in them.
8 Fri Feb 04 12:29:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
10 * Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
11 got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
12 the -help output. I guess the idea was to make reference to the
13 fact that clearly you know about the -help option since you're
14 currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea to
15 overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
16 supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
17 allowed to specify. It doesn't make sense to show that you're
18 allowed to "abbreviate" the switch to its entire length.
20 Thu Feb 03 17:52:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
22 * Applied wesley.craig@umich.edu's KPOP patches. According to him:
24 The following patch fixes a problem with requesting a
25 service key for a machine that has multiple 'A' records. It
26 also makes "-kpop" a command line option, for users who
27 would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".
29 Did no testing of the new features, as I don't have access to a
32 * Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
34 * Modified INSTALL and config.h.in to reflect the new -kpop feature.
36 Fri Jan 28 17:39:24 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
38 * All %-escapes in mhn.defaults that actually expand to something
39 should be surrounded by single quotes. Added quotes to the ones
40 in mhn.defaults.sh that were missing them.
42 * Added check for lynx to write mhshow-show-text/html line in
45 Thu Jan 27 12:22:25 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
47 * makedir() had multiple bugs dating back to MH. It passed an
48 octal constant to atoi(), which interpreted it as decimal,
49 resulting in directories with no user read or execute permissions,
50 making nested directory creation fail. Also, when creating a
51 nested directory, correct permissions were only set on the inner one.
53 * A second `make install' would always fail because the check for
54 whether mh_profile.5 existed was written incorrectly.
56 Wed Jan 26 02:22:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
58 * Added documentation on both types of masquerading to post's man
61 Tue Jan 25 22:58:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
63 * Doug's portability fix of my setgid inc autodetection had a
64 caching bug -- if you re-ran configure, uip/Makefile would be
65 corrupted, and installation would bomb out on OSes where inc needs
68 * Implemented a new kind of email address masquerading. When a
69 user writes a custom "From:" header in a draft, nmh uses it rather
70 than generating one. However, the user's true address is used in
71 the SMTP envelope "From:" and is revealed in the "Sender:" header.
72 Now, when mmailid is set to non-zero, the envelope "From:" uses
73 the address specified in the draft "From:" header, and there is no
74 "Sender:" header. This is useful when sending on behalf of a
75 remote POP3 account or when remote mail robots incorrectly use the
76 envelope "From:" in preference to the body "From:". This
77 processing has only been implemented for post, not for the
78 undocumented spost (which was already missing some "From:"
79 processing that post has).
81 Mon Jan 24 22:26:06 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
83 * Got rid of the rest of the gcc -Wall warnings that I didn't have
84 time for on 1999-07-15 (and, it would seem, some new ones people
85 introduced since then). The primary ones were the warnings that
86 default prototypes were being used for [v]snprintf() and
87 str[n]casecmp(). As of right now, there are _no_ compilation
88 warnings except on dtimep.c-lexed (at least under AIX 4.1.5 and
91 Sun Jan 2 23:42:18 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
93 * Move mhtest from bindir to libdir.
95 * Move sendfiles from libdir to bindir.
97 * Updated sendfiles manpage to reflect this change.
99 * Added documentation for -build and -file switches to repl and
100 forw manpages (patch from Peter Maydell).
102 * Fixed interaction between specifying -cc in profile and -group on
105 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
107 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
108 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
109 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
112 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
114 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
115 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
116 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
117 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
118 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
119 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).
121 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
123 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
125 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
127 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
128 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
129 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
130 caught again. This works for now.
132 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
134 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
136 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
137 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
139 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
141 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
142 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
144 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
146 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
148 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
150 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
151 changes. Both need more cleanup.
153 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
155 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
156 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
157 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
158 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
159 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
162 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
164 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
165 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
166 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
168 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
169 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
172 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
174 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
175 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
176 to a directory on another device with more free space.
178 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
180 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
181 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
183 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
185 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
188 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
189 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
191 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
192 macros, regardless of platform.
194 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
195 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
197 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
198 with x-conversions=gzip.
200 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
202 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
205 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
206 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
207 implicit definition of ioctl().
209 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
210 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
211 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
212 want to mess with them.
214 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
216 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
217 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
219 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
220 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
222 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
223 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
224 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
226 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
227 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
228 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
230 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
233 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
236 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
237 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
240 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
241 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
244 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
245 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
249 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
251 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
252 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
253 preventing compilation on at least linux.
255 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
256 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
258 Thu Sep 9 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
260 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
262 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
263 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
264 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
265 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
267 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
268 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
270 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
272 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
274 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
276 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
277 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
279 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
281 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
282 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
284 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
285 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
286 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
287 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
289 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
290 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
292 Sat Jun 9 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
294 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
295 substitute it for mktemp if available.
297 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
299 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
300 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
303 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
305 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
307 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
309 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
310 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
312 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
313 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
314 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
316 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
317 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
318 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
320 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
321 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
322 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
324 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
325 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
328 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
329 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
331 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
332 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
334 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
337 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
338 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
339 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
341 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
342 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
344 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
345 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
346 <elleron@servtech.com>.
348 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
349 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
352 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
353 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
355 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
356 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
357 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
358 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
360 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
361 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
363 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
367 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
368 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
369 would not be changed.
371 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
372 one from the Apache web server.
374 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
375 (this should have been done a long time ago).
377 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
378 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
379 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
381 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
383 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
385 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
386 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
389 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
390 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
391 removes a bad race condition.
393 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
396 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
397 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
398 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
400 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
401 sequence information.
403 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
404 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
406 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
409 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
412 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
414 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
415 interpret 034 as octal.
417 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
419 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
420 mhstore, and mhbuild.
422 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
423 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
425 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
426 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
428 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
429 in the c_cefile structure when building.
431 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
432 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
434 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
435 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
436 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
438 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
439 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
440 and mhshow. Updated man pages
442 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
444 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
446 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
447 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
450 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
452 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
453 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
455 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
456 header field information.
458 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
459 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
461 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
462 values when parsing a content.
464 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
465 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
467 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
468 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
470 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
471 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
473 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
474 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
476 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
478 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
480 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
482 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
484 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
485 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
488 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
489 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
491 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
492 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
493 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
494 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
495 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
496 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
499 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
501 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
502 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
503 buffer length checks for this parameter.
505 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
506 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
508 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
510 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
511 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
512 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
513 of the limits on the length of command lines.
515 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
516 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
519 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
520 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
521 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
522 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
525 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
529 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
530 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
532 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
533 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
534 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
535 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
538 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
539 mhbuild returns an error.
541 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
542 rename the draft file.
544 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
545 use a global variable.
547 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
548 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
550 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
551 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
553 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
554 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
555 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
557 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
558 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
560 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
561 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
564 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
565 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
568 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
569 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
571 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
572 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
573 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
575 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
576 to new function output_content_folder.
578 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
579 new function output_content_file.
581 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
582 to new function parse_format_string.
584 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
585 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
586 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
587 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
589 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
590 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
591 message/external file from ftp.
593 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
594 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
595 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
597 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
598 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
601 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
604 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
605 new file mhstoresbr.c
607 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
610 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
611 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
613 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
614 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
616 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
617 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
618 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
620 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
622 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
624 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
625 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
628 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
629 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
631 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
634 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
636 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
640 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
641 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
642 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
643 is still the same (dashstuffing).
645 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
646 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
647 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
648 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
649 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
651 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
652 But it is not on by default.
654 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
655 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
657 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
659 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
661 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
663 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
665 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
666 number of the "cur" message when packing.
668 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
672 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
673 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
674 uses the original name of the library.
676 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
677 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
680 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
681 list_content and list_debug.
683 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
685 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
686 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.
688 1998-02-27 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
692 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
694 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
695 are given, that order doesn't matter.
697 * Fix bug in seq_list.c when realloc'ing for
700 1998-02-23 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
704 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
706 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
707 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan
708 content, decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary
709 string). I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
711 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
712 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
715 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
717 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
719 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
721 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
722 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
724 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
725 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.
727 * Add note to MACHINES file that on Linux, configure
728 doesn't find the functions sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
730 * Fix configuration for machines that don't have (or find)
731 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
733 1998-02-11 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
737 * Add a configure check for sigsetjmp. Add some conditional
738 #define's in h/signals.h in case it's not found.
740 * Added additional notes about -auto switch in mhn man page.
742 * Added note about MM_CHARSET environment variable to
743 mh-profile(5) man page.
745 * Fix signal problem in mhn.c (change setjmp/longjmp to
746 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp).
748 1998-02-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
750 * Released nmh-0.22-pre1.
752 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
753 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
755 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
757 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
758 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
759 entry point for parsing MIME files.
761 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
762 source message on the standard input.
764 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
766 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
767 rather than -rfc934mode.
769 * Fix mhbuild, so that Content-Description and RFC-822 comments
770 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
773 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
774 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).
776 * Restore HP specific code to zotnet/tws/lexstring.c. Apparently
779 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
783 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
784 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.
786 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what transfer
789 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what character set
790 to use for text contents.
792 * Removed old hpux specific code from zotnet/tws/lexstring.c
794 1998-02-02 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
796 * Released nmh-0.21-pre2.
798 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
800 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
801 header fields as per RFC-2047.
803 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
804 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
805 spaces between encoded word are.
807 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
809 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
810 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
812 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
813 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
814 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
816 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
818 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
819 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
821 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.
823 * Added support for %(decode) to fmtdump.c.
825 * check_charset() now accepts US-ASCII as a subset of any
826 ISO-8859-X character set.
828 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
831 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
832 permissions, not write permissions.
834 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
835 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
837 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
840 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
842 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
844 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
845 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
847 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
848 message contains valid character set.
850 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
851 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
853 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
854 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
856 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
857 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
858 between an encoded word and normal text.
860 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
861 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
863 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
864 as a RFC-2047 header field.
866 * The command install-mh now recognizes the switches -version
869 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
870 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
873 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
874 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
876 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
877 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
879 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
881 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
885 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
887 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.
889 * Changed the default format file for mhl (mhl.format) to
890 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
891 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
893 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
894 and the To: line was missing.
896 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
898 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
900 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
902 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
903 watch the POP transaction.
905 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
906 first, and use it if available.
908 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
909 first, and use it if available.
911 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
913 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
915 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
916 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
917 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
920 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
921 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
922 returns the state FLDPLUS.
924 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
925 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
928 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
930 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
931 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
933 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
935 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
936 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
938 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
939 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
940 message to which you are replying.
942 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
943 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
944 making group replies.
946 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
948 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
952 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
953 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
955 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
956 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
957 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
958 to the end of the man page.
960 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
961 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
962 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
963 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
964 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
965 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
967 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
970 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
971 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
972 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
974 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
975 the next available number above the message number you wish
978 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
979 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
981 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
984 * flist will now update the current folder.
986 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
987 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
988 but now undocumented.
990 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
993 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
994 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
996 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
998 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
999 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
1001 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1003 * Released nmh-0.18.
1005 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
1006 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
1007 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
1009 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
1010 retains the public/private status of sequences.
1012 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
1013 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
1014 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
1015 previous public/private status.
1017 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
1020 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
1023 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
1024 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
1025 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
1027 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
1028 take option to determine whether it should get current
1029 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
1030 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
1032 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
1034 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
1035 wait for stopped processes.
1037 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
1038 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
1040 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1042 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
1044 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
1045 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
1047 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
1048 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
1050 * Change the way that memory for message status is
1051 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
1052 the folder/message structure. This required changing
1053 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
1055 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
1058 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
1061 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
1063 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
1064 the debugging output.
1066 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
1067 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
1069 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1071 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
1073 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
1074 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
1076 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
1078 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
1079 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
1080 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
1081 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
1082 in the given sequence.
1084 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
1085 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
1086 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
1087 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
1088 subdirectories of a given directory.
1090 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
1091 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
1092 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
1094 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
1095 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
1097 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
1099 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
1102 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
1103 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
1104 fields are now calculated at runtime.
1106 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
1107 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
1108 are calculated at runtime.
1110 Sun Nov 30 19:14:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1112 * Released nmh-0.18-pre2.
1114 * Add paragraph to man page for install-mh and to INSTALL file
1115 about checking for global mh.profile.
1117 * Renamed m_find() to context_find().
1118 Renamed m_replace() to context_replace().
1119 Renamed m_delete() to context_del().
1120 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
1121 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
1122 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
1124 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
1125 adding message to folder itself.
1127 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
1128 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
1129 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
1132 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
1133 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
1136 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
1137 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
1138 is the same as the direct smtp code).
1140 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
1141 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
1143 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
1144 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
1145 code to use it yet).
1147 Thu Nov 13 18:42:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1149 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.
1151 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never
1152 called with a value larger than 30 mintues.
1154 * Fixed race condition in rmm and refile, so that
1155 context is updated before external rmmproc is called.
1157 * Removed all the OVERHEAD code.
1159 * Move code to add message to folder from refile.c
1162 Fri Jul 25 19:39:29 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1164 * Did some rearranging of the internals of inc.c.
1166 * Make -inplace the default for anno, forw, dist, and repl.
1168 * Changed --enable-smtp to --with-mts={smtp,sendmail}
1170 * Created new directory mts/sendmail for direct sendmail
1171 interface (although it currently still uses SMTP).
1173 * Removed all the TMA (trusted mail agent) code
1175 * Removed all the TTYD (terminal access daemon) code
1177 * Removed all the MF (uucp filtering) code.
1179 * Removed all the code for BERK.
1181 * Removed all the code for stand-alone delivery (MHMTS).
1183 * Split the file mts/sendmail/smail.c into sendmail.c and
1184 smtp.c. Changed the name of the directory to mts/smtp.
1186 * Changed autoconf to use @sysconfdir@ for location of
1187 configuration files.
1189 * Changed #define in mhn.c from FTP to BUILTIN_FTP.
1191 Mon Jul 21 03:22:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1193 * Released nmh-0.17.
1195 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
1197 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
1198 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
1200 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
1203 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
1204 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
1206 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
1207 number of refiled message.
1209 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
1211 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
1212 for return value of wait().
1214 * Change configure to also check /bin for "more".
1216 Sat Jul 12 00:02:23 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1218 * Released nmh-0.16.
1220 Mon Jun 23 20:13:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1222 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
1224 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
1225 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
1226 deal with binary messages, yet).
1228 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
1230 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
1232 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
1233 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
1234 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
1235 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
1236 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
1237 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
1239 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
1240 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
1242 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
1243 From MH-6.8.4 patch.
1245 * Fix double free of ctinfo in user_content when using
1246 #forw with single message. From John MacMillan (and
1249 * Changed -mhnproc switch for show, to -showmimeproc.
1251 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".
1253 * Added "mime" option to "whatnow", which calls the program
1254 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
1257 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
1260 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
1262 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
1263 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
1264 which used unsigned chars by default.
1266 Sat Jun 21 01:21:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1268 * Released nmh-0.15.
1270 * Added new form "scan.unseen" to distribution. It marks messages
1271 which are in any sequence in Unseen-Sequence.
1273 * Do some rearranging of date/time code in zotnet/tws/dtime.c
1275 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
1277 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
1280 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
1281 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
1282 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
1284 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
1285 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
1287 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
1289 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
1290 they conflict with defines on AIX.
1292 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
1293 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
1294 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
1295 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
1297 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
1298 and put in own subroutine.
1300 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
1301 and put in own subroutine.

1315 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
1316 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
1318 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
1321 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before

1336 selected messages to a sequence.
1338 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,
1341 Thu May 15 00:53:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

1389 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
1390 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
1393 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
1394 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
1396 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1398 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if
1399 necessary. So `folders' can now handle more than 300 folders.
1401 Tue Apr 22 14:01:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1403 * Change configure to use a compile check to see if the tm struct

1432 will suppress the display of the message header.
1434 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
1436 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c

1453 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
1455 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
1456 folder/message structure when done with folder.
1458 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is
1459 defined even if message is missing "From " line.

1521 * Released nmh-0.08.
1523 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
1524 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of
1525 locking database itself.

1532 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
1535 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
1536 rather than mmdf format.
1538 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
1539 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
1540 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
1541 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
1543 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
1545 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1547 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
1550 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
1551 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
1552 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
1554 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
1555 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
1556 rcvpack so you can choose the preferred format.
1558 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1560 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
1561 can still easily change this in config.h).
1563 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
1564 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
1565 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
1567 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1569 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather

1584 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
1586 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
1587 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
1590 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
1591 built-in FTP client in mhn.

1604 * Released nmh-0.06.
1606 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
1607 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
1609 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
1610 many such machines around anymore.
1612 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
1613 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
1615 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
1616 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
1618 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1620 * Check lex generated file in zotnet/tws and use
1621 pre-generated version if necessary.
1623 * Released nmh-0.05.
1625 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
1626 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
1627 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
1628 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
1630 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
1631 be linked in one pass.
1633 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1635 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
1636 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
1638 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1640 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
1642 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1644 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
1645 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
1646 become the current folder.
1648 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1650 * Released nmh-0.04.

1655 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1657 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
1658 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
1659 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
1661 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1663 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
1664 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
1666 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1668 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
1669 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
1672 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
1673 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
1675 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1677 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
1678 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
1679 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
1680 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
1681 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
1682 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
1684 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1686 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
1687 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
1689 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
1690 a file (currently need to specify full path).
1692 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1694 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
1695 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
1697 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1699 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
1700 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
1701 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
1703 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1705 * Released nmh-0.03.
1707 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
1708 .mh_sequence file existed.
1710 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
1711 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
1713 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
1714 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
1717 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1719 * Changed flist option -unseen to -[no]all. Cleaned up
1722 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1724 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
1725 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
1726 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
1728 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1730 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
1731 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
1732 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
1734 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1736 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL
1737 and allocate its own buffer. Borrowed from zsh.
1739 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
1741 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1743 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
1744 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
1745 directory from where the source code is located.
1747 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1749 * Released nmh-0.02.

1759 and sys_nerr directly.
1761 Mon Dec 30 02:15:25 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1763 * -compat switch from install-mh removed.
1765 * Changed the default POP port from "pop" to "pop3".

1769 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
1770 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
1771 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
1772 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
1773 rather than in script.
1775 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1777 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
1779 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with
1780 macro defined on Solaris.

1784 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
1785 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
1787 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
1788 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
1789 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
1790 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
1793 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1795 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
1796 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.
1798 * Fixed configure test so that termcap variable ospeed is
1801 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1803 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
1805 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included
1806 in mhn.c. Changed md5 to use memset and memcpy.
1808 Fri Dec 20 02:29:37 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1810 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
1811 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
1813 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1815 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
1816 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
1817 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
1818 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
1819 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
1820 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
1822 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1824 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
1826 * Released nmh-0.01.
1828 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
1829 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
1830 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
1833 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1835 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
1838 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1840 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
1841 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
1843 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1845 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
1846 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
1847 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
1848 script to find_program.
1850 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1852 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
1853 speed up -recurse option.
1855 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
1856 yet, but it compiles :-)
1858 * Changed default location for install to
1859 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
1860 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
1861 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
1864 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
1865 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
1866 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
