1 2005-11-08 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
3 * configure.in, */Makefile.in, mts/smtp/smtp.c: replace obsolete
6 2005-11-06 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
8 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, sbr/fmt_scan.c, h/prototypes.h: fix various
9 possible overruns of the buffers in fmt_scan() which would cause
10 crashes if scan was run with '-width 16536' or similar.
12 * uip/popsbr.c: fix compile error which only showed up if nmh
13 was configured with --enable-apop.
15 * Debian Bug# 245932, RedHat Bug# 172388: uip/mhparse.c: don't
16 crash when handling a multipart MIME message with an invalid
17 Content-Type header (file handle was being fclose()d twice).
19 * sbr/Makefile.in: adjust lex command to work on both old and
22 * configure.in: add an AC_PREREQ() so autoconf 2.13 gives a helpful
23 error message and the Debian autoconf-version-guessing wrapper
24 doesn't guess wrongly.
26 2005-11-02 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
28 * Debian Bug# 320069: Nick Rusnov: uip/popsbr.c: fail when
29 kpop connection attempted without KPOP support compiled in
31 * Debian Bug# 320090: Nick Rusnov: sbr/Makefile.in: fix for newer
32 version of flex and remove autogenerated file from cvs
34 * patch #1155: uip/flist.c: speed up flist by skipping stat on
35 files with numbers as names
37 * docs/Makefile.in: include new files in distribution
39 2005-10-11 Bill Wohler <wohler@newt.com>
41 * docs/FAQ: fold questions into MH FAQ and distribute that instead
43 2005-10-05 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
45 * Harald Geyer: h/mh.h, uip/replsbr.c: back out previous change
46 (fork/vfork) and replace with code that handles the issue directly
48 2005-05-18 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
50 * Debian Bug# 143485: Nick Rusnov: h/mh.h: use fork instead of
53 * Debian Bug# 261592: Harald Geyer: uip/mhlsbr.c, uip/replsbr.c:
54 test/report error writing to stdout
56 * mts/smtp/smtp.c, uip/popsbr.c: correct SASL include file locations
58 * docs/COMPLETION-BASH: bash completion definitions from Debian
60 * patch #2863: savannah@brisammon.fastmail.fm: sbr/folder_read.c:
61 fix a bug affecting AFS where nmh was setting the READONLY flag
62 for a folder even when you do have write access to the folder
64 * Carl Mummert: h/fmt_compile.h, man/mh-format.man,
65 sbr/fmt_compile.c, sbr/fmt_scan.c: add unquote() function for
66 removing quotes from RFC-2822 encoded headers
68 2005-02-23 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
70 * use iconv to convert RFC-2047 encoded headers to the
71 character set used by the current locale
73 * sbr/folder_read.c fix Debian bug #202667: crash when a
74 message's filename overflows an int when converted
76 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
77 versions (from automake 1.9.5)
79 2005-02-21 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
81 * sbr/getpass.c fix bug where inc crashed on failing to reopen
84 2005-01-27 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
86 * Added -proxy option to inc and msgchk. Based on old patch
87 from Michael Richardson.
89 * On systems where it is available, use nl_langinfo to get the
90 character set if MM_CHARSET is unset
92 2005-01-21 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
94 * sbr/check_charset.c US-ASCII is a subset of UTF-8 so can be
95 handled directly when UTF-8 is being used
97 2004-12-17 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
99 * uip/mhmisc.c Fix -part option to mhshow/mhlist/mhstore to
100 find sub-parts of the specified part
102 2004-11-19 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
104 * h/prototypes.h, sbr/folder_addmsg.c, uip/mhstoresbr.c,
105 uip/rcvstore.c, uip/refile.c: Added mail directory argument to
106 folder_addmsg in order to make it possible to provide a path to
107 the ext_hook call that is mailpath-based. A problem existed when
108 a folder was a symbolic link and the pwd call would return the
109 path relative to the filesystem, not to mailpath. A new argument
110 was needed because there was otherwise no reasonable way to get
113 2004-11-16 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
115 * sbr/folder_pack.c: Fixed problem where the refile hook was being
116 called after a message was renamed so that it wasn't around for
117 the hook. The hook is now called before the message file is
120 * sbr/folder_addmsg.c: Fixed wrong directory for hook when
121 refiling with -src option.
123 2004-10-15 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
125 * uip/sortm.c: Fixed calling of external hooks.
127 2004-10-12 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
129 * uip/inc.c: Fixed another weird bug caused by the static
130 mailpath being overwritten.
132 * uip/sendsbr.c: Fixed bug that caused anno to mangle headers.
134 * sbr/lock_file.c: Fixed strange bug that prevented a lock from
135 ever being obtained if getting it failed the first time. The
136 problem was that the string of XXXXXX that is required by
137 mkstemp() was overwritten the first time through, and so all
138 subsequent times failed because mkstemp() failed. The fix
139 reinitializes the tmp file string.
141 * uip/inc.c: Fixed bug in which the static maildir was overwritted
142 if a format string was read from the profile.
144 * sbr/folder_delmsgs.c: Fixed bug that was producing an incorrect
145 path for the external hook.
147 2003-10-06 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
149 * uip/slocal.c, configure.in: db configuration fix for Debian; yet
150 another location for ndbm.
152 2003-09-30 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
154 * Fix 'pick' so handling of options "-list" and "-seq" are
156 * Fix 'inc' realloc error when bringing in more than 100 msgs
158 * Patches submitted by Nick Rusnov from Debian archive applied:
161 136976 - Handle binary content messages
162 143427 - mh-format.man typo
163 144098 - 'spost; should have same behavior as 'post'
164 w.r.t. mts.conf masquerade line
165 149745 - slocal ignores 'N' result of previous command
166 152728 - increase SMTP timeouts to conform to RFC 1123
167 The timeouts suggested by the RFC seem long
168 to me - but the RFC is still listed as active.
169 181867 - typo for nmh.man
171 2003-08-10 Jeffrey C Honig <jch@honig.net>
173 * Fix problem where parsing of address/date fields in fmt_compile
174 is optimized to the first instance. The first instance may be in
175 contitional code which will result in cached data to
176 be used. Instead, convert c_flags to a flags field from a boolean
177 and parse on the first use.
178 * Remove some unused flag bits.
180 Fri Jul 01 22:02:00 2003 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
182 * Applied fixes for configuration problems with Solaris and
183 systems with gdbm instead of db1 (includes bug #2024)
185 #578 - repl leaks umask
186 #1393 - sortm core dumps
187 #1650 - msh leaks file descriptors
188 #1730 - Double free() in mhfree.c:free_encoding()
189 #3356 - In-Reply-To header in default replcomps should be
191 * Revised man page for mh-format (bug #2031)
192 * New replcomps, etc, with Fcc: +outbox in default versions
194 Sat Mar 17 03:18:15 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
196 * Ken Hornstein's configure.in Cyrus SASL checks were doing
197 `x"$with_cyrus_sasl" != "no"' instead of `... != x"no"'.
199 Tue Mar 06 21:04:27 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
201 * Found some historical information about MH in RFC 808.
202 Supplemented it with info from Jerry Peek's MH book and added it
203 to docs/README.about.
205 Tue Feb 6 20:35:40 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
207 * sbr/dtime.c Use the same Y2K correction code as dtimep.lex
209 * sbr/dtimep.lex Restrict the parser to accept either
210 a numerical timezone offset, or a symbolic one (e.g. EST),
211 but not both (Since "2000 -400 EDT" might cause a double
212 subtraction of 60 minutes if both are parsed. One should be
215 Mon Feb 05 20:22:54 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
217 * -L isn't sufficient for specifying the path of the Cyrus SASL
218 shared library. That'll allow us to link successfully, but on
219 many/most OSes that won't allow us to find libsasl at runtime. On
220 Solaris, we need to specify the library path with -R as well (or
221 else the user will have to use the $LD_LIBRARY_PATH kludge, which
222 is considered harmful). This fix should be extended to other OSes
225 * Print whether we have SASL support in the "nmh configuration"
226 summary configure prints out.
228 * Say in README.developers to use `\date' in case anyone is like
229 me and has `date' aliased in their shell to use a nonstandard (but
230 subjectively more readable) format.
232 Thu Jan 25 21:15:52 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
234 * man/mh-chart.man has updated synposes of
237 Tue Jan 23 20:26:15 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
239 * etc/digestcomps tried to force dates into a
240 19xx when it's not necessary.
242 Fri Jan 19 21:22:08 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
244 * First round of manpage updates finished. They
245 are standardized on -man macros, with minimal
248 * man/tmac.h.in is no longer needed, since the
249 manpages do not depend on them anymore. Note:
250 strict "man" programs that didn't allow ".so"
251 sourcing outside the man tree will now format
252 the man pages correctly.
254 * man/vmh.1 is no longer built, since uip/vmh isn't
256 Tue Jan 9 6:01:22 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
258 * Finished manpages ali-prev
260 * Removed deprecated files from the repository.
261 Specifically, those rooted in zotnet/ and mts/sendmail
262 mts/mmdf. "cvs update -dP" will give a pruned directory
265 * Updated docs/Makefile.in to include README.manpages, and
266 uip/Makefile.in to include popi.c (which isn't being built,
267 though). This allows "make nmhdist" to create an archive that
268 is file-for-file identical to the current cvs repository.
270 Sun Dec 31 20:48:50 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
272 * Create docs/README.manpages, which details
273 the formatting rules I've been using.
277 Sat Dec 30 9:50:13 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
279 * Created a new file "DATE" to hold the date
280 of the most recent nmh release. This date will be
281 used in the manpages.
283 * Updated docs/README.developers to add the step
284 of updating DATE. Also, updated configure to
285 read in the contents of the file as the variable
288 * Started work on updating man pages, with only
289 ali finished so far. Changes: 1) no dependence
290 on an external macro file, 2) uses only
291 -man macros (although I may be mistaken in this),
292 3) syntax in the SYNOPSIS is a little more
293 in line with standard UNIX documentation, such as
294 bold flags and italicized parameters.
296 Sun Dec 24 10:06:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
298 * Updated INSTALL with information about the
299 --with-locking option.
301 * Fixed the Hesiod tests in configure.in. In
302 systems where res_send was in -lresolv, this
303 information was not being communicated to the
304 HESIOD_LIBS var. Now, if res_send is not found
305 in the default libraries, it's assumed to be
306 in -lresolv, and thus -lresolv is appended to
307 HESIOD_LIBS, which will need that to avoid
308 undefined symbols problems.
310 * Fixed the Kerberos tests in configure.in. New
311 versions of Kerberos 5 have renamed -lcrypto
312 to -lk5crypto (circa krb5 1.1 or thereabouts). The
313 new test tries to determine if -lk5crypto exists. If so,
314 this is a new krb5 system. If not, test for -lcrypto
315 and the rest of old krb5. If that fails, look
316 for a genuine krb4 installation.
318 Fri Dec 22 22:08:51 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
320 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in msgchk.man.
321 -snoop was documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
323 Fri Dec 22 23:42:16 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
325 * Made a new ./configure option called
326 "--with-locking" that allows the file
327 locking mechanism to be chosen there instead of
328 requiring a manual edit of config.h.
330 * If the option is not explicitly set, or an
331 invalid option is specified, "dot" locking is
332 chosen. Valid options are "dot", "fcntl",
333 "flock", and "lockf". We need a way to tell
334 the user that these are the valid options, and
335 change the flag "--with-locking" if it's not
338 Fri Dec 22 19:21:29 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
340 * Remove the lex-specific memory hints at the
341 beginning of sbr/dtimep.lex. We've already
342 committed to supporting flex only, since
343 lex does not easily allow us to parse a single
344 string, as well as other problems documented
345 below and on nmh-workers.
347 * Added a switch statement to configure.in to
348 test for Mac OS X. If this is the case, LDFLAGS
349 should not contain "-s" since the linker rejects
352 * Updated MACHINES to include Mac OS X Public Beta,
353 as well as Linux 2.4 running glibc 2.2.
355 Wed Dec 20 16:00:46 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
357 * Marked deprecated directories in docs/README.developers
358 as deprecated, with pointers to the new code location.
359 Eventually these deprecated directories should go away.
361 Tue Dec 19 19:16:37 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
363 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in inc.man. -snoop was
364 documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
366 Thu Dec 14 14:32:09 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
368 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
369 versions on ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/config, dated
370 12-07-00. This should prevent configure from failing
371 on newer operating systems because config.{guess,sub}
372 couldn't correctly identify them.
374 Thu Dec 14 1:30:44 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
376 * Fixed the circular dependency created when I moved
377 zotnet/mts to mts/generic and merged them into libmts.
378 mts/generic/client.c and mts/generic/mts.c are now in sbr/
379 (and thus in libmh), which makes libmh self-contained and
380 not depending on an external archive.
382 * All include statements now look for mts.h in h/. The
383 Makefiles and configure script have been modified so that
384 mts/generic is no longer built.
386 Mon Dec 11 22:08:07 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
388 * When Shantonu made the new libmts.a, he swapped $(MTSLIB) and
389 libmh.a in sbr/Makefile.in so that libmh.a comes first, but this
390 causes the build to fail on Solaris, because libmts.a has to get
391 ruserpass() out of libmh.a. Swapping them back to the way Ken
392 Hornstein's patch (which I applied on Jul 20) put them, with
393 libmh.a correctly coming second. If there are times when libmts.a
394 needs to come second, then it would appear there's a circular
395 dependency and someone (Shantonu?) did an mts merge incorrectly.
397 Fri Sep 8 01:36:23 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
399 * Took out bad time textual time zones like BST and JST.
400 I found them online somewhere, but am not sure if they're
403 Fri Sep 8 00:36:48 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
405 * Moved zotnet/mts to mts/generic. This code reorganization
406 makes the entire zotnet tree deprecated -- bboards is unneeded,
407 mf was was moved to sbr, tws was rewritten and moved to sbr, and
410 * Created a new static library called libmts.a used during
411 compilation which includes the generic mts code and the
412 smtp/sendmail code. This supercedes the functionality of the
413 old libsmtp.a and the remains of libzot.a.
415 * Updated header includes to reference the new location of mts.h
416 in mts/generic/mts.h. Also, update the configure and top-level
417 Makefile not to descend into zotnet. Also, they don't descend
418 into mts/mmdf and mts/sendmail (the sendmail code has been
419 merged into the smtp code).
421 * Added #include <h/nmh.h> to h/md5.h, since my compile was
422 complaining about implicitly-declared memcpy and memset, which
423 appear to be in strings.h. In any event, nmh.h should take care
426 * When doing a "make nmhdist", notice that the generated
427 snapshot does not include zotnet of the mts directories as noted
428 above. Since they are no longer compiled, and I don't see any
429 obvious code path to get to them, end-users should probably
430 not need them. If you think otherwise, turn Makefile generation
431 back on in configure.in and turn on recursion into those dirs
432 in the appropriate Makefile.in
434 Wed Sep 6 22:40:03 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
436 * Tracked down the problem in the new dtimep where time
437 zones were being radically misreported. It was because the
438 parser knew about military time zones (such as M or E) but in
439 some cases did not know about the textual representation of
440 some zones (like MET). When it encountered one of these, the
441 date parser misread MET as the military time zone T (well, first
442 zone M, then E, and finally T). I took military zones out, and
443 things seem much better. Also, the default behavior of parsing
444 time zones appears to default to GMT in the absence of better
445 info, which is less bogus than assuming the mail came from the
446 current time zone, which was the behavior in 1.04.
448 Thu Aug 10 13:22:13 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
450 * Decided that limiting the message number columns to 3 on my
451 scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD (to try to regain space taken by
452 extra date info) was ill-conceived. It's not that tough to get
453 past 999 messages, though I imagine it's rather rare to exceed
454 9999. Changed these to 4. Also put the "replied / encrypted"
455 column back in YYYYMMDD -- I've never seen it show anything but a
456 space, but that space is useful if you use scan, grep, and awk
457 (with the default field separator) to grab message numbers (I know
458 -- pick should really be used for these purposes...).
460 Mon Aug 7 20:11:09 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
462 * Modify umask set by mhshow to enable user execute bit, so that
463 viewers that create temporary directories (e.g., lynx) will be
466 Thu Aug 03 17:14:08 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
468 * TODO: Allow multiple simultaneous differing contexts, probably
469 each tied to a parent (terminal) process.
471 Tue Aug 1 10:48:05 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
473 * Makefile install rules should not look for generated files in
474 the source tree -- this will happen to work when configuring and
475 building inside the source tree but will fail when using an
476 external build tree. Fixed etc/Makefile.in.
478 Mon Jul 24 16:20:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
480 * When Shantonu wrote the new, more portable dtimep.lex, he left
481 out the #ifdef DSTXXX stuff for some reason. Not a good idea, as
482 that code is required for proper printing of numeric-offset
483 timezones that have daylight saving time. Without that code,
484 -0700 during DST gets printed as MST instead of PDT.
486 * Renamed DSTXXX as ADJUST_NUMERIC_ONLY_TZ_OFFSETS_WRT_DST and
487 added an explanatory comment by its #definition.
489 * Updated README.developers with the fact that zotnet/tws is going away.
491 Thu Jul 20 20:30:52 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
493 * Moved Kimmo's new "--with-hash-backup" to be output with the
494 rest of the --with options in the configure --help output. Also,
495 people did not preserve my alphabetization of the --with options
496 when they added new ones. Re-alphabetized.
498 * One more pass at README.developers now that it's clear that my
499 previously-suggested one-line autoconf-file commit can cause
500 unnecessary local makes and an out-of-sync stamp-h.in file, but
501 would not cause problems for other people using the CVS files.
503 * Ken Hornstein's SASL patch was not integrated properly with
504 Ruud's new merged mts/sendmail code. Kimmo has since fixed nmh so
505 it compiles, but according to Ken, the SASL stuff still does not
506 work. Integrating a patch from him for this.
508 * Last pass at README.developers -- Kimmo's 5-step commit was
509 overkill. You only need 3 steps, since configure.in is the only
510 autoconf file with the RCS $Id keyword.
512 * Applied Kurt J. Lidl <lidl@eng.us.uu.net>'s $MAILHOST patch:
514 I have a small patch that would be nice to be included --
515 basically, it allows the usage of the "MAILHOST" environment
516 variable, without having to have HESIOD turned on. I need
517 this functionality for my environment, where we have identical
518 /usr/local on all my machines (so I cannot just hardcode into
519 the mts.conf file), and I have multiple POP mail servers for
522 Modified inc.man to reflect that along with "pophost:" and -host,
523 $MAILHOST can now activate POP mail inclusion as well.
525 * Fixed warnings from diff on first-time install of nmh. Also
526 added 'echo's clarifying the etc file installation activities.
528 Tue Jul 18 19:36:59 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
530 * Added the answer to Dan's question in README.developers.
532 Mon Jul 17 19:10:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
534 * Clarified and made some corrections to Kimmo's README.developers
535 changes (BTW, if anyone can explain why the RCS Ids are able to cause
536 problems with the dependencies, please fill in the explanation --
537 I never encountered a problem with the old single-commit method).
539 Sat Jul 15 23:13:49 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
541 * Add configure option --with-hash-backup so the backup prefix can
542 be easily changed from "," to "#".
544 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that it works with any make.
546 * Use mkstemp in sbr/lock_file.c.
548 * Commits of autoconf-related files apparently can't all be done
549 in one shot due to RCS Ids changing when committing -- updated
552 Tue Jul 11 14:18:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
554 * Clarified post.man and send.man for those not completely up on
555 SASL terminology. "SASL encryption layers are not supported for
556 SMTP" means that encryption is supported for the authentication
557 but not for the subsequent data stream.
559 Sat Jul 8 01:36:19 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
561 * Applied Ken Hornstein <kenh@cmf.nrl.navy.mil>'s patches
562 implementing SASL support for POP3 and SMTP. If nmh is compiled
563 with SASL support, using the -sasl switch on the inc, msgchk,
564 post, and send commands will enable authentication encryption for
565 SMTP, and both authentication and data stream encryption for POP3.
567 Sat Jun 10 18:37:59 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
569 * Merged mts/sendmail functionality into mts/smtp; switching between
570 smtp and sendmail delivery method is now controlled by mts.conf.
572 * If tsort cannot deal with loops, in addition to defining tsort as
573 cat, also define lorder as echo.
575 * Removed uip/popi.c from list of sources.
577 Thu Jun 08 19:36:57 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
579 * New dtimep.lex didn't parse day names properly. Fixed. Also
580 clarified ambiguous comments preceding day_map[] array (from old
581 dtimep.lex) that probably led to the erroneous cp++ being added.
583 Wed Jun 7 20:52:33 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
585 * Added one more mkstemp invocation to uip/spost.c (which was in a
588 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to clean up permissions handling
589 and error handling in uip/inc.c.
591 Mon Jun 5 22:10:07 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
593 * Use cat instead of tsort if tsort cannot deal with loops in its
594 input (which is the case for tsort from GNU textutils).
596 Mon Jun 5 21:14:36 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
598 * If lockfile is present, and its dotlockfile program is setgid,
599 inc does not need to be setgid.
601 Sun Jun 4 21:35:40 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
603 * Added autoconf test for Miquel van Smoorenburg's liblockfile
604 library, as found on Debian systems.
606 * Added liblockfile support to sbr/lock_file.c.
608 Wed May 31 7:19:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
610 * Fixed up dtimep.lex a bit. Added back memory options for AIX to
611 increase available memory. Took out %option noyywrap, which
612 wasn't understood by AT&T lex, as well as the -i
613 case-insensitivity flag.
615 Wed May 31 07:40:45 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
617 * Added a lint target to the Makefiles and a check in autoconf
618 to determine whether lint or lclint exists on the system.
620 Fri May 30 19:21:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
622 * etc/Makefile.in was incorrectly installing mts.conf.in and
623 sendfiles.in -- fixed. Generated sendfiles script was not a
624 dependency of the `all' target, and was incorrectly included in
625 the distribution. Changed the suffix for the backed-up previous
626 versions of the etc files from the ambiguous .old to .prev. Added
627 call to diff -- only keep the .prev files around if different from
628 the newly-installed versions (intentionally didn't redirect output
629 to /dev/null so you'll notice when your changed versions are
630 getting moved aside).
632 * INSTALL never documented the etc/*.old thing. Documented the
633 new etc/*.prev thing (including a note to watch for diff output).
635 * Applied Alec Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu>'s dropsbr.c patch:
637 In the map_write routine, a call is made to map_open and this
638 call is supposed to set the "clear" variable to 0 or 1,
639 depending on whether the map file is empty or not. In
640 mh6.8.3, this worked because map_open would set "clear" by
641 calling the mbx_Xopen routine. In nmh, the code for mbx_Xopen
642 was merged into mbx_open, but the interface for mbx_open
643 doesn't support the clear variable, so that functionality was
644 lost. The map_open interface still contains "int *clear" in
645 the prototype, but never sets it.
647 My patch eliminates "clear" from the map_open interface (I
648 checked to make sure that map_write is the only client of
649 map_open). Furthermore, my patch also sets the "clear"
650 variable properly at the beginning of map_write by calling
651 fstat(). This eliminates the bug in that the value of "clear"
652 being used later in the routine was just stack garbage.
654 Having a bad value of clear causes this next bug to be
655 triggered: The fp file pointer was being opened with fdopen,
656 but in two of the three switch cases it wasn't being closed.
657 In certain cases, this was causing packf to run out of file
658 descriptors if you attempted to pack a large folder.
660 Mon May 29 7:48:15 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
662 * Moved the date parsing routines from zotnet/tws to sbr/ (and
663 tws.h to h/). Updated all source files to reflect to new location
666 * Rewrote dparsetime (in dtimep.lex -> dtimep.c) to replace the
667 old zotnet/tws/dtimep.c, dtimep.lex, lexstring.c, lexedit.c, and
668 dtimep.c-lexed. It should now work with flex (although untested
669 with lex), and requires no sed-ing. For now, I have the lexed
670 version in the distribution, so that end-users don't need to worry
671 about running it through flex/lex. I have not added back support
672 for guessing the time zone when it's not specified.
674 Sun May 28 17:44:15 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
676 * Added autoconf check for getutent().
678 * Changed uip/rcvtty.c and uip/slocal.c to use getutent() and
679 friends. Since I can only check on Linux, please check if
680 this works on other systems.
682 Sun May 28 14:58:49 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
684 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to uip/scansbr.c for more
685 checks for write failures.
687 * Unlink temporary file properly in uip/rcvtty.c.
689 * Moved viamail from bindir to libdir.
691 * Changed sendfiles into sendfiles.in, so that path to viamail
694 * Added gzip support to sendfiles.
696 * Added References header to replcomps and replgroupcomps.
698 Sun May 28 14:39:31 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
700 * Fixed m_getfld bug which caused segmentation faults when
701 incorporating messages which ended in multiple linefeeds crossing
704 Fri May 26 13:21:59 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
706 * msh has been unable to show MIME messages ever since 1.0. Alec
707 Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu> tracked down the problem to the
708 -show flag being passed to mhshow. mhshow is equivalent to the
709 old mhn -show, so we don't need the -show anymore. Removed it.
711 Fri May 12 02:51:21 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
713 * zotnet/bboards is not longer built by default. Goal is to move
714 the assorted functions in zotnet into sbr or some more logical
717 * Moved zotnet/mf to sbr, and changed mf.h references accordingly,
718 as well as Makefiles.
720 Thu May 11 02:21:34 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
722 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that both SRCS and OBJS aren't
723 seperately and redundantly defined, but so that OBJS is a
724 pattern-substituted version of SRCS with suffix .c -> .o. This
725 should make maintainability easier.
727 * Added section to MACHINES indicating what platforms nmh is known
728 to compile and work on, just to give users peace of mind, or
729 something. This is by no means complete or exhaustive, so add
730 whatever you know works.
732 Tue May 09 20:38:04 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
734 * Alphabetized Shantonu's $pop_kinds output on configure's "pop is
735 enabled" line. If POP3 is the only kind of POP enabled, say so,
736 rather than just saying "yes" (which is ambiguous).
738 * Fixed four warnings in Shantonu's new getpass.c. Needed to
739 #include <stdlib.h> for calloc(), <unistd.h> for ttyname(), and
740 "h/mh.h" for adios(). Also changed ch from char to int to get rid
741 of "comparison is always 1 due to limited range of data type" on EOF.
743 * Added steps to README.developers saying to change the version
744 number to X.Y.Z+dev. Did a little rearranging and changed the FTP
745 dir from /home/ftp to /var/ftp to reflect Doug's new machine.
747 * Changed configure.in to use gcc -Wall even without
748 --enable-debug, to prevent developers compiling optimized from
749 introducing warnings, and to give end-users a warm, fuzzy feeling
750 as they (hopefully) see no warnings come out (except perhaps on
751 the lex output file) even with -Wall.
753 * Renamed getpass() to nmh_getpass() since the prototype for
754 getpass() varies from OS to OS, and we want to _always_ use our
755 version of the function. Fixed all the callers to use
756 nmh_getpass() and added it to prototypes.h. Semi-arbitrarily
757 upped MAX_PASSWORD_LEN from 128 to 256. buf was being calloc()'d
758 and the memory leaked -- should have just been declared as static
759 char array. Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the
760 copyright message, as this version has been changed significantly
761 from the BSD version.
763 * Added "nmh-local functions to use in preference to OS versions"
764 section to README.developers (currently just says to use
765 nmh_getpass() instead of system getpass()).
767 * Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the copyright message
770 * Added mts.conf.5 page per Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s
773 This happens on solaris:
776 windex entry incorrect: mts.conf(5) not found.
777 No manual entry for mts.conf.
781 % echo ".so man5/mh-tailor.5" > mts.conf.5
783 done in the man5 directory. We need to add 'mts.conf.5' as a
784 reference sourcing mh-tailor.5.
786 Mon May 08 23:51:55 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
788 * Doug informed me that the way I had restored the "lost" version
789 histories was wrong, because `cvs checkout's of old versions of
790 nmh wouldn't work properly. It occurs to me that this could be
791 fixed by simply deleting those tags in the new-location *,v files,
792 but oh well. I'm putting everything back to the way Doug
793 originally had it. To get the old version history for a file that
794 used to be in the top directory, you'll need to "blindly" do a
795 `cvs log' there (even though you won't have a local copy of the
796 file in that directory). `cvs diff' will no longer be able to
797 diff pre-move versions vs. post-move versions -- you'll have to do
798 a lot of manual gyrations with `cvs checkout' and then use `diff'.
800 * I had alphabetized the --configure options in the --help output
801 awhile back, but Shantonu added --enable-apop just under
802 --enable-pop. Put it in alphabetical order and clarified what
803 --enable-apop does vs. --enable-pop and --with-krb4. Also changed
804 --with-mts help line from "mail transport agent" to "mail
805 transport agent/service" so the 's' in "mts" doesn't seem to come
808 * Added two steps to "releasing nmh" in README.developers. After
809 making the tarball, it's a good idea to diff the tree vs. the CVS
810 tree to make sure no files got left out, and then to chown the
811 files so that they're owned by root, preventing a Trojaning attack
812 by a malicious remote user with a UID matching yours.
814 * Changed DIFFERENCES to say that RPOP is not currently supported
815 rather than implying it by saying that APOP, KPOP, and POP[3] are.
817 Sun May 07 18:16:43 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
819 * Imported NetBSD version of getpass() and made extensive
820 revisions for compatibility with programs that pipe the password
821 to stdin, such as exmh.
823 * Removed tests for system ruserpass() which sometimes gave
824 phantom positive results. Also, bext to use internal functions if
825 we ever want to change .netrc format to something else, or access
828 Sat May 06 08:28:09 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
830 * Restored lost version histories for those moved files by doing a
831 manual `mv' in the CVSROOT on mhost. CVS badly needs a `cvs mv'
832 command so that you can move files (without having physical access
833 to the CVSROOT) without losing versioning. Put MACHINES back at
834 the top level as it needs to be read before building. Fixed DIST
835 variable in {.,docs}/Makefile.in to reflect that and to add
836 missing entry for "INSTALL" file.
838 Sat May 06 13:13:07 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
840 * Re-cleaned up nmh documentation (by moving things to docs
841 subdir) and modified Makefile & configure.in to handle the change.
843 Mon Apr 17 21:28:40 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
845 * Scott Blachowicz pointed out that the configure --help output
846 for --enable-masquerade was misleading. Clarified.
848 Mon Apr 17 19:01:00 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
850 * APOP support can be compiled in to inc and msgchk using
853 * To access an APOP host, specify -apop on the command line
854 along with any -host or -user option.
856 Fri Apr 14 23:10:44 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
858 * Upped the version number to 1.0.4+dev until the next nmh release.
860 * Added a "releasing nmh" section to README.developers, while the
861 process was fresh in my mind.
863 Fri Apr 14 18:21:34 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
865 * Added new files README.developers, ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6, and
866 ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html to DIST target in Makefile.in.
868 * Released nmh-1.0.4.
870 Tue Apr 11 21:37:03 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
872 * Applied Brian Campbell <bacam@tardis.ed.ac.uk>'s mhn.defaults.sh
875 It appears that there shouldn't be quotes around the %s in the
876 iso-8859-1 charset entry; xterm passes the remaining arguments
877 to the program, quoting them means that xterm thinks they're
878 part of the program's name.
880 This %s isn't the same as the "Insert content subtype" one from
881 mhshow-show-* -- it doesn't come from MIME headers and is safe not
884 Sun Apr 09 13:03:59 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
886 * added check in fmt_compile() to handle a single-character
887 format string. fmt_compile() depends on having an array of
888 format characters with an empty item at the end. A
889 single-character format would cause programs using this
890 function to segfault because the algorithm used to decide on
891 the length of the array mistakenly created a single-item array
892 when the format string was one character. This eventually
893 caused problems when the program attempted to test item+1
896 Thu Apr 06 21:53:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
898 * Richard Coleman threw out a lot of old MH-specific files in nmh.
899 Much of the stuff, indeed, is not worth saving, but there are
900 nuggets that are very worthwhile, and should probably be added
901 back in. Most important, IMHO, are the MH change logs, as they
902 can help answer questions like "Why is this code like this?" or
903 "How long has this been broken?" or "What was this ever used for?"
905 I've added a new file to the nmh tree called
906 ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6. It's cobbled together from the
907 mh-6.8.4/papers/mh*/MHCHANGES files. I've re-ordered the entries
908 to go from newest at the top to oldest at the bottom to match the
909 ChangeLog convention. Unfortunately there are no change logs for
910 versions of MH prior to 3 in the MH tar files available at
911 <ftp://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/mh>. Also, it appears to me that there
912 are MH-6.6 changes that aren't documented in the logs.
914 I've also added ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html. This is
915 based on mh-6.8.4/papers/changes/mh-changes.ms. The nroff format
916 and its "catman"-type output are a pain to deal with, but I was
917 loath to throw away the formatting, so I converted the file to
918 HTML. The only actual markup in the body are the "<B>" and "<U>"
919 tags, and "<" and ">" instead of '<' and '>', so it's quite
920 doable to view the file in plain ASCII mode as well. Note that
921 some of the changes this file documents as having been made in
922 MH-6.8.4 may not be present in nmh -- Richard started with 6.8.3
923 and later put in certain 6.8.4 stuff.
925 Wed Apr 05 21:09:28 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
927 * Applied Eric Schnoebelen <eric@cirr.com>'s mhshowsbr.c patch
928 fixing apparent bugs in Dan Winship's new security quoting code:
930 Since upgrading, I've been getting the following errors
931 while attempting to process some MIME messages:
933 (1) Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
938 (2) line 1/10 (END)Segmentation fault (core dumped)
940 (2) appears to be due to the testing of an unset pointer in
941 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux(). (1) appears to be caused by
942 mis-quoting a filename being handed to the shell in
943 mhshowsbr.c:show_content_aux().
945 Resolving the pointer reference issue in
946 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux() turned up a similar mis-quoting
947 problem in the routine.
949 Tue Mar 28 16:17:39 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
951 * Applied Todd.Miller@courtesan.com's patch to dropsbr.c to
952 prevent core dumping on packf. Here's the note from his message:
954 Since sizeof(buffer) == sizeof(tmpbuffer) packf will dump
955 core on a file w/o a From line with a line >= BUFSIZ.
956 I noticed this because I had a junk file in my mail
959 Fri Mar 17 11:59:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
961 * wesley.craig@umich.edu did not document his previous KPOP patch,
962 so I did so, and asked him to check what I wrote. Unfortunately
963 he didn't notice my misunderstanding of his patch. I wrote that
964 if you #define POPSERVICE "kpop", inc and msgchk will use KPOP
965 exclusively, but if you leave it as "pop3", you can use Wesley's
966 new -kpop switch on a given invocation. Instead, however, -kpop
967 turned out to be necessary on every invocation, and a KPOP user
968 complained. Applied Wesley's new patch, which makes things work
969 like I thought his original patch did. After that, did one more
970 clarifying pass to the documentation in inc.man and msgchk.man.
972 Wed Mar 15 18:45:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
974 * When I fixed the long-standing makedir() bugs in January, I had
975 the code call strtoul(..., 0), which I believed to be safe as all
976 modes specified as ASCII constants in the nmh code started with a
977 leading zero (signifying octal), which I did as it would work if
978 internal constants were ever changed to hex. Unfortunately I was
979 unaware of the "Folder-Protect:" .mh_profile entry, which
980 mh-profile.man documents as an octal-only constant, with no
981 leading zero required. I've changed the strtoul() call to an
982 atooi() call and removed the misleading leading zeroes on the
983 ASCII octal constants in the code and man pages. Also changed the
984 "Folder-Protect:" example in the man page to something more
985 interesting than a duplication of the default.
987 * When I added my --enable-masquerade option, you'll note that I
988 didn't make it --enable-nmh-masquerade. I find the --enable-nmh-*
989 options too wordy and I'm not sure why Richard went that route.
990 I've renamed them to just --enable-*, but the old versions will
991 still work as well (they just aren't advertised).
993 * Added a line to the "nmh configuration" output saying whether
996 * Added a new README.developers file. From the file:
998 This file is intended to provide a few tips for anyone doing
999 development on nmh. Developers who learn things "the hard
1000 way" about the nmh codebase (as opposed to local info best
1001 encoded in a comment) are encouraged to share their wisdom
1004 Currently the topics are "autoconf files" and "directory structure".
1006 Tue Mar 14 12:41:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1008 * Applied, after some finessing,
1009 Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s --with-smtpservers patch:
1011 Here's a patch that allows you to add
1013 --with-smtpservers=<some.host.name>
1015 to the ./configure command line to set the "servers: " line in
1016 etc/mts.conf. Around here, we use "mailhost" so that all
1017 machines in the current domain just talk to a central machine
1018 and nothing else runs an MTA. Now, I can use
1020 --with-smtpservers=mailhost
1022 instead of having to remember to fix this by hand (and often
1023 forgetting to do so!).
1025 * Inspired by Simon's patch, added an --enable-masquerade option
1026 to configure. It will set the "masquerade:" line of mts.conf.
1027 You may specify a subset of the three types of masquerading, like
1028 --enable-masquerade="draft_from mmailid", or leave off explicit
1029 arguments to enable all three types.
1031 * Alphabetized the --enable and --with options in configure.in and
1032 INSTALL and added documentation of the two new options to the latter.
1034 * Added new dependency for mts.conf: Makefile. If this isn't
1035 done, then when you reconfigure nmh with new values for
1036 --enable-masquerade or --with-smtpservers, you'll fail to get an
1037 updated copy of mts.conf.
1039 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtimep.lex patch:
1041 It seems that some MUA's didn't handle y2k very well - ELM
1042 seems to be one of them, and Ultrix's DXmail (based on MH!).
1043 I've got a few emails this month that look like:
1045 575 Jan 00 Xxxxxx Xxxx 3603 ...
1047 22+ Jan 00 Xxx Xxxxx 1771 ...
1049 The first has "15 Jan 100" as the date and the second has
1050 "19 Jan 00" as the date. The following works around this so
1051 that scan, show, sortm, etc work ok.
1053 I put Simon's patch under the control of a new #define called
1054 FIX_NON_Y2K_COMPLIANT_MUA_DATES. There's some commentary in
1055 acconfig.h about when you might not want to #define it.
1057 * Created new dtimep.c-lexed with Simon's change using dtimep.lex
1058 lexed on Solaris 2.6. Added missing dependency in
1059 zotnet/tws/Makefile.in for dtimep.c: dtimep.c-lexed.
1061 * Added scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD format files.
1063 Mon Mar 13 21:32:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1065 * Applied Sullivan N. Beck <sbeck@cise.ufl.edu>'s mhshow-suffix patch:
1067 With the patch below, you can add lines like:
1069 mhshow-suffix-application/msword: .doc
1070 mhshow-suffix-application/PostScript: .ps
1072 to the mhn.defaults file to append the given suffix to a
1073 scratch file. This allows applications which require a
1074 certain suffix to run properly.
1076 * Removed -force_html from lynx entry in mhn.defaults.sh (I
1077 believe older versions of lynx lack that option) and added
1078 "mhshow-suffix-text/html: .html".
1080 * Modified username_extension masquerading to only use the
1081 extended address on generated [Resent-]From: lines and SMTP
1082 envelope From:. With Neil's original implementation, nmh's global
1083 idea of the username was changed, which would result in inc lying
1084 and saying you had no new mail because it was looking for a
1085 mailbox called, for instance, "dan-nmh" (where username was "dan"
1086 and $USERNAME_EXTENSION was "-nmh").
1088 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtime.c patch:
1090 There's a wrap-around problem that affects the implementation
1091 of Zeller's congruence in dtime.c. This causes the day-of-week
1092 calculations to fail for dates after Feb 29, 2000 (probably up
1093 until some year far in the future).
1095 Mon Mar 06 12:20:20 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1097 * Applied Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s msh.c patch:
1099 I finally tracked down the problem in msh that was causing
1100 errors whenever I tried to examine a 'mmdf' style mailbox.
1102 It turns out that not enough memory was being allocated with
1103 calloc(), causing memory pointers to be overwritten and
1106 Fri Mar 03 16:07:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1108 * Changed the new "plussed_user" option to mts.conf's
1109 "masquerade:" to "username_extension" after getting feedback from
1110 qmail users, who use '-' as a separator rather than '+'. Removed
1111 checking of $USERPLUS variable. Now check $USERNAME_EXTENSION,
1112 which needs to include the appropriate separator for your MTA
1113 ('-', '+', or whatever) as its first character.
1115 Thu Mar 02 23:04:30 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1117 * Added a new "boolean" type to mh.h and TRUE and FALSE constants.
1119 * Added a note to DIFFERENCES stating that it's out-of-date
1120 (Richard was the last one to update it) and that we should
1121 consider only documenting incompatibilities with MH there.
1123 * Implemented (and documented) a third kind of username
1124 masquerading: "plussed user" masquerading. This one was suggested
1125 by Neil Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>. It's based on sendmail's
1126 "plussed user" feature, where mail sent to <user>+<string> will be
1127 delivered to <user>. When it's enabled, it's controlled by the
1128 $USERPLUS environment variable. How is it enabled? Well, that
1131 * Renamed the "mmailid:" setting in mts.conf to "masquerade:", and
1132 changed it so that rather than being a boolean, it can be set to
1133 any combination of the three values "draft_from", "mmailid", and
1134 "plussed_user". Thus it is now possible to enable the three types
1135 of masquerading individually.
1137 * Fixed a bug with "mmailid" masquerading (dating back to MH?)
1138 where if it was turned on, ','s would no longer be considered
1139 GECOS field delimiters.
1141 Wed Mar 01 23:30:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1143 * Changed the GECOS-field '&' translation behavior to be
1144 controlled by the BSD42 #define rather than GCOS_HACK, since it's
1145 apparently always appropriate on OSes where BSD42 is #defined, and
1146 never appropriate on any other OSes. Thanks to Kimmo Suominen for
1147 responding to my "What is this code here for?" comment in mts.c
1148 and explaining the feature.
1150 Mon Feb 28 21:50:29 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1152 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3+dev (ideally this should be
1153 done by whoever makes a release tar file, immediately after doing
1156 * Applied Paul Fox <pgf-spam@foxharp.boston.ma.us>'s scansbr.c
1157 patch, posted to comp.mail.mh, which he says prevents loss of mail
1158 when inc'ing into a full filesystem.
1160 * Changed "echo > stamp-h.in" in Makefile.in to "date > stamp-h.in"
1161 so that stamp-h.in will be different each time configure.in and
1162 related files are changed, making it easier to check it in (which
1163 is necessary to prevent unnecessary autoconf calls).
1165 * My declaration of initgroups() in slocal.c to eliminate the "no
1166 prototype" warning wasn't portable (FreeBSD 3.[23] choked). Now
1167 use AC_EGREP_HEADER to see where initgroups() is declared, if
1170 Sun Feb 20 12:17:15 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1172 * Fix security hole in mhshowsbr.c which allowed untrusted shell
1173 code to be executed.
1175 * Released nmh 1.0.3.
1177 Thu Feb 10 10:54:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1179 * Oops. %-escapes on mhstore lines in mhn.defaults.sh should not
1180 be surrounded by single quotes, as a shell is not spawned when
1181 just saving files, and the filenames will end up with literal
1182 quotes embedded in them.
1184 Fri Feb 04 12:29:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1186 * Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
1187 got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
1188 the -help output. One theory is that they were making reference
1189 to the fact that clearly you know about the -help option since
1190 you're currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea
1191 to overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
1192 supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
1195 The other theory is that because you can say something like
1196 "mhstore -" and get "mhstore: - ambiguous. It matches" followed
1197 by the same list of switches you get with -help, they were saying
1198 you can "sorta" abbreviate "-help" as "-". You don't get the
1199 "Usage:" string, though, so it's not really the same thing.
1201 Thu Feb 03 17:52:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1203 * Applied wesley.craig@umich.edu's KPOP patches. According to him:
1205 The following patch fixes a problem with requesting a
1206 service key for a machine that has multiple 'A' records. It
1207 also makes "-kpop" a command line option, for users who
1208 would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".
1210 Did no testing of the new features, as I don't have access to a
1213 * Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
1215 * Modified INSTALL and config.h.in to reflect the new -kpop feature.
1217 Fri Jan 28 17:39:24 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1219 * All %-escapes in mhn.defaults that actually expand to something
1220 should be surrounded by single quotes. Added quotes to the ones
1221 in mhn.defaults.sh that were missing them.
1223 * Added check for lynx to write mhshow-show-text/html line in
1226 Thu Jan 27 12:22:25 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1228 * makedir() had multiple bugs dating back to MH. An octal
1229 constant was apparently being interpreted as decimal, resulting in
1230 directories with no user read or execute permissions, making
1231 nested directory creation fail. And there wasn't even an
1232 _attempt_ to set desired permissions (e.g. from "Folder-Protect:"
1233 in .mh_profile) on the outer directories of a nested directory.
1235 * A second `make install' would always fail because the check for
1236 whether mh_profile.5 existed was written incorrectly.
1238 Wed Jan 26 02:22:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1240 * Added documentation on both types of masquerading to post's man
1243 Tue Jan 25 22:58:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1245 * Doug's portability fix of my setgid inc autodetection had a
1246 caching bug -- if you re-ran configure, uip/Makefile would be
1247 corrupted, and installation would bomb out on OSes where inc needs
1250 * Implemented a new kind of email address masquerading. Usually,
1251 when a user writes a custom "From:" header in a draft, nmh uses it
1252 rather than generating one. However, the user's true address is
1253 used in the SMTP envelope "From:" and is revealed in the "Sender:"
1254 header. Now, when mmailid is set to non-zero, the envelope
1255 "From:" uses the address specified in the draft "From:" header,
1256 and there is no "Sender:" header. This is useful when sending on
1257 behalf of a remote POP3 account or when remote mail robots
1258 incorrectly use the envelope "From:" in preference to the body
1259 "From:". This processing has only been implemented for post, not
1260 for the undocumented spost (which was already missing some "From:"
1261 processing that post has).
1263 Mon Jan 24 22:26:06 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1265 * Got rid of the rest of the gcc -Wall warnings that I didn't have
1266 time for on 1999-07-15 (and, it would seem, some new ones people
1267 introduced since then). The primary ones were the warnings that
1268 default prototypes were being used for [v]snprintf() and
1269 str[n]casecmp(). As of right now, there are _no_ compilation
1270 warnings except on dtimep.c-lexed (at least under AIX 4.1.5 and
1273 Sun Jan 2 23:42:18 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1275 * Move mhtest from bindir to libdir.
1277 * Move sendfiles from libdir to bindir.
1279 * Updated sendfiles manpage to reflect this change.
1281 * Added documentation for -build and -file switches to repl and
1282 forw manpages (patch from Peter Maydell).
1284 * Fixed interaction between specifying -cc in profile and -group on
1287 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1289 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
1290 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
1291 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
1294 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1296 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
1297 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
1298 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
1299 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
1300 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
1301 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).
1303 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1305 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
1307 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1309 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
1310 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
1311 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
1312 caught again. This works for now.
1314 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
1316 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1318 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
1319 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
1321 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1323 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
1324 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
1326 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
1328 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
1330 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1332 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
1333 changes. Both need more cleanup.
1335 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1337 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
1338 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
1339 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
1340 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
1341 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
1344 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1346 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
1347 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
1348 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
1350 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
1351 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
1354 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1356 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
1357 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
1358 to a directory on another device with more free space.
1360 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1362 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
1363 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
1365 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1367 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
1370 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
1371 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
1373 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
1374 macros, regardless of platform.
1376 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
1377 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1379 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
1380 with x-conversions=gzip.
1382 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1384 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
1387 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
1388 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
1389 implicit definition of ioctl().
1391 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
1392 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
1393 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
1394 want to mess with them.
1396 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1398 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
1399 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
1401 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
1402 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
1404 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
1405 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
1406 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
1408 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
1409 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
1410 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
1412 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
1413 function initgroups.
1415 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
1418 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
1419 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
1422 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
1423 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
1426 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
1427 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
1431 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1433 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
1434 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
1435 preventing compilation on at least linux.
1437 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
1438 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
1440 Thu Sep 09 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1442 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
1444 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
1445 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
1446 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
1447 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
1449 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
1450 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
1452 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1454 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
1456 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1458 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
1459 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
1461 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1463 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
1464 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
1466 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
1467 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
1468 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
1469 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
1471 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
1472 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
1474 Sat Jun 09 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1476 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
1477 substitute it for mktemp if available.
1479 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1481 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
1482 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
1485 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
1487 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
1489 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
1491 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
1492 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
1494 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
1495 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
1496 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
1498 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
1499 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
1500 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
1502 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
1503 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
1504 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1506 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
1507 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
1510 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
1511 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1513 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
1514 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1516 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
1517 <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1519 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
1520 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
1521 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1523 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
1524 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1526 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
1527 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
1528 <elleron@servtech.com>.
1530 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
1531 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
1534 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
1535 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
1537 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
1538 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
1539 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
1540 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
1542 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
1543 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
1545 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1549 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
1550 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
1551 would not be changed.
1553 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
1554 one from the Apache web server.
1556 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
1557 (this should have been done a long time ago).
1559 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
1560 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
1561 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
1563 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
1565 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
1567 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
1568 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
1571 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
1572 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
1573 removes a bad race condition.
1575 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
1578 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
1579 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
1580 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
1582 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
1583 sequence information.
1585 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
1586 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
1588 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
1591 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
1594 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
1596 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
1597 interpret 034 as octal.
1599 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
1601 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
1602 mhstore, and mhbuild.
1604 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
1605 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
1607 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
1608 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
1610 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
1611 in the c_cefile structure when building.
1613 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
1614 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
1616 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
1617 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
1618 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
1620 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
1621 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
1622 and mhshow. Updated man pages
1624 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
1626 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
1628 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
1629 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
1632 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
1634 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
1635 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
1637 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
1638 header field information.
1640 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
1641 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
1643 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
1644 values when parsing a content.
1646 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
1647 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
1649 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
1650 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
1652 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
1653 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1655 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
1656 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
1658 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
1660 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
1662 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
1664 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
1666 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
1667 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
1670 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
1671 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
1673 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
1674 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
1675 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
1676 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
1677 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
1678 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
1681 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1683 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
1684 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
1685 buffer length checks for this parameter.
1687 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
1688 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
1690 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1692 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
1693 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
1694 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
1695 of the limits on the length of command lines.
1697 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
1698 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
1701 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
1702 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
1703 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
1704 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
1707 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1709 * Released nmh-0.27.
1711 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
1712 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
1714 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
1715 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
1716 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
1717 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
1720 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
1721 mhbuild returns an error.
1723 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
1724 rename the draft file.
1726 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
1727 use a global variable.
1729 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
1730 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
1732 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
1733 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
1735 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
1736 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
1737 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
1739 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
1740 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
1742 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
1743 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
1746 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
1747 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
1750 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
1751 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
1753 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
1754 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
1755 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
1757 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
1758 to new function output_content_folder.
1760 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
1761 new function output_content_file.
1763 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
1764 to new function parse_format_string.
1766 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
1767 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
1768 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
1769 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
1771 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
1772 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
1773 message/external file from ftp.
1775 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
1776 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
1777 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
1779 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
1780 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
1783 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
1786 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
1787 new file mhstoresbr.c
1789 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
1792 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
1793 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
1795 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
1796 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
1798 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
1799 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
1800 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
1802 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
1804 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
1806 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
1807 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
1810 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
1811 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
1813 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
1816 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
1818 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1820 * Released nmh-0.26.
1822 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
1823 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
1824 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
1825 is still the same (dashstuffing).
1827 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
1828 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
1829 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
1830 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
1831 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
1833 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
1834 But it is not on by default.
1836 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
1837 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
1839 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
1841 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
1843 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
1845 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
1847 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
1848 number of the "cur" message when packing.
1850 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1852 * Released nmh-0.25.
1854 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
1855 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
1856 uses the original name of the library.
1858 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
1859 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
1862 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
1863 list_content and list_debug.
1865 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
1867 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
1868 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.
1870 1998-02-27 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1872 * Released nmh-0.24.
1874 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
1876 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
1877 are given, that order doesn't matter.
1879 * Fix bug in seq_list.c when realloc'ing for
1880 large sequence line.
1882 1998-02-23 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1884 * Released nmh-0.23.
1886 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
1888 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
1889 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan
1890 content, decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary
1891 string). I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
1893 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
1894 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
1897 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
1899 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
1901 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
1903 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
1904 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
1906 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
1907 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.
1909 * Add note to MACHINES file that on Linux, configure
1910 doesn't find the functions sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
1912 * Fix configuration for machines that don't have (or find)
1913 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
1915 1998-02-11 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1917 * Released nmh-0.22.
1919 * Add a configure check for sigsetjmp. Add some conditional
1920 #define's in h/signals.h in case it's not found.
1922 * Added additional notes about -auto switch in mhn man page.
1924 * Added note about MM_CHARSET environment variable to
1925 mh-profile(5) man page.
1927 * Fix signal problem in mhn.c (change setjmp/longjmp to
1928 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp).
1930 1998-02-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1932 * Released nmh-0.22-pre1.
1934 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
1935 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
1937 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
1939 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
1940 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
1941 entry point for parsing MIME files.
1943 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
1944 source message on the standard input.
1946 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
1948 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
1949 rather than -rfc934mode.
1951 * Fix mhbuild, so that Content-Description and RFC-822 comments
1952 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
1955 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
1956 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).
1958 * Restore HP specific code to zotnet/tws/lexstring.c. Apparently
1961 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1963 * Released nmh-0.21.
1965 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
1966 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.
1968 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what transfer
1971 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what character set
1972 to use for text contents.
1974 * Removed old hpux specific code from zotnet/tws/lexstring.c
1976 1998-02-02 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1978 * Released nmh-0.21-pre2.
1980 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
1982 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
1983 header fields as per RFC-2047.
1985 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
1986 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
1987 spaces between encoded word are.
1989 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
1991 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
1992 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
1994 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
1995 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
1996 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
1998 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
2000 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
2001 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
2003 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.
2005 * Added support for %(decode) to fmtdump.c.
2007 * check_charset() now accepts US-ASCII as a subset of any
2008 ISO-8859-X character set.
2010 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
2013 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
2014 permissions, not write permissions.
2016 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
2017 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
2019 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
2022 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2024 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
2026 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
2027 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
2029 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
2030 message contains valid character set.
2032 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
2033 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
2035 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
2036 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
2038 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
2039 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
2040 between an encoded word and normal text.
2042 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
2043 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
2045 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
2046 as a RFC-2047 header field.
2048 * The command install-mh now recognizes the switches -version
2051 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
2052 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
2055 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
2056 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
2058 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
2059 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
2061 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
2063 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2065 * Released nmh-0.20.
2067 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
2069 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.
2071 * Changed the default format file for mhl (mhl.format) to
2072 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
2073 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
2075 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
2076 and the To: line was missing.
2078 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
2080 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2082 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
2084 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
2085 watch the POP transaction.
2087 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
2088 first, and use it if available.
2090 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
2091 first, and use it if available.
2093 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2095 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
2097 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
2098 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
2099 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
2102 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
2103 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
2104 returns the state FLDPLUS.
2106 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
2107 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
2110 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
2112 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
2113 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
2115 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
2117 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
2118 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
2120 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
2121 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
2122 message to which you are replying.
2124 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
2125 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
2126 making group replies.
2128 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
2130 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2132 * Released nmh-0.19.
2134 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
2135 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
2137 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
2138 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
2139 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
2140 to the end of the man page.
2142 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
2143 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
2144 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
2145 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
2146 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
2147 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
2149 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
2152 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
2153 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
2154 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
2156 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
2157 the next available number above the message number you wish
2160 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
2161 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
2163 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
2164 file sbr/seq_print.c
2166 * flist will now update the current folder.
2168 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
2169 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
2170 but now undocumented.
2172 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
2175 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
2176 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
2178 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
2180 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
2181 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
2183 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2185 * Released nmh-0.18.
2187 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
2188 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
2189 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
2191 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
2192 retains the public/private status of sequences.
2194 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
2195 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
2196 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
2197 previous public/private status.
2199 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
2202 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
2205 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
2206 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
2207 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
2209 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
2210 take option to determine whether it should get current
2211 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
2212 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
2214 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
2216 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
2217 wait for stopped processes.
2219 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
2220 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
2222 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2224 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
2226 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
2227 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
2229 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
2230 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
2232 * Change the way that memory for message status is
2233 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
2234 the folder/message structure. This required changing
2235 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
2237 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
2240 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
2243 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
2245 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
2246 the debugging output.
2248 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
2249 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
2251 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2253 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
2255 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
2256 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
2258 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
2260 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
2261 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
2262 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
2263 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
2264 in the given sequence.
2266 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
2267 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
2268 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
2269 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
2270 subdirectories of a given directory.
2272 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
2273 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
2274 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
2276 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
2277 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
2279 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
2281 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
2284 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
2285 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
2286 fields are now calculated at runtime.
2288 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
2289 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
2290 are calculated at runtime.
2292 Sun Nov 30 19:14:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2294 * Released nmh-0.18-pre2.
2296 * Add paragraph to man page for install-mh and to INSTALL file
2297 about checking for global mh.profile.
2299 * Renamed m_find() to context_find().
2300 Renamed m_replace() to context_replace().
2301 Renamed m_delete() to context_del().
2302 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
2303 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
2304 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
2306 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
2307 adding message to folder itself.
2309 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
2310 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
2311 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
2314 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
2315 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
2318 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
2319 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
2320 is the same as the direct smtp code).
2322 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
2323 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
2325 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
2326 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
2327 code to use it yet).
2329 Thu Nov 13 18:42:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2331 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.
2333 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never
2334 called with a value larger than 30 mintues.
2336 * Fixed race condition in rmm and refile, so that
2337 context is updated before external rmmproc is called.
2339 * Removed all the OVERHEAD code.
2341 * Move code to add message to folder from refile.c
2344 Fri Jul 25 19:39:29 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

2357 * Removed all the TTYD (terminal access daemon) code
2359 * Removed all the MF (uucp filtering) code.
2361 * Removed all the code for BERK.
2363 * Removed all the code for stand-alone delivery (MHMTS).

2366 smtp.c. Changed the name of the directory to mts/smtp.
2368 * Changed autoconf to use @sysconfdir@ for location of
2369 configuration files.
2371 * Changed #define in mhn.c from FTP to BUILTIN_FTP.

2377 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
2379 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
2380 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
2382 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
2385 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
2386 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
2388 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
2389 number of refiled message.
2391 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
2393 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
2394 for return value of wait().
2396 * Change configure to also check /bin for "more".
2398 Sat Jul 12 00:02:23 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2400 * Released nmh-0.16.
2402 Mon Jun 23 20:13:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2404 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
2406 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
2407 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
2408 deal with binary messages, yet).
2410 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
2412 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
2414 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
2415 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
2416 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
2417 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
2418 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
2419 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
2421 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
2422 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
2424 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
2425 From MH-6.8.4 patch.
2427 * Fix double free of ctinfo in user_content when using
2428 #forw with single message. From John MacMillan (and
2431 * Changed -mhnproc switch for show, to -showmimeproc.
2433 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".
2435 * Added "mime" option to "whatnow", which calls the program
2436 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
2439 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
2442 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
2444 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
2445 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
2446 which used unsigned chars by default.
2448 Sat Jun 21 01:21:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2450 * Released nmh-0.15.
2452 * Added new form "scan.unseen" to distribution. It marks messages

2457 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
2459 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
2462 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
2463 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
2464 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
2466 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
2467 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
2469 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
2471 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
2472 they conflict with defines on AIX.
2474 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
2475 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
2476 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
2477 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
2479 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
2480 and put in own subroutine.
2482 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
2483 and put in own subroutine.
2485 * Moved code to remove messages from folder into own
2486 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and
2487 refile.c to use new routine.
2489 Fri May 16 06:09:31 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2491 * Renamed m_seqok to seq_nameok.
2493 * Changed m_setunseen, msh, mshcmds, flist, and scan to use
2496 * Changed m_seqflag to return the number of a sequence rather
2497 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
2498 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
2500 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
2503 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before
2504 adding message to sequence.
2506 * Renamed function m_setvis to m_setunseen, and renamed
2507 corresponding file in sbr.
2509 * Renamed function m_setseq to m_setprev, and renamed corresponding
2512 * Changed mark.c and pick.c to use m_seqaddsel and m_seqdelsel.
2514 * Added new function m_seqdelsel to m_seqdel.c, which deletes
2515 all selected messages from a sequence.
2517 * Added new function m_seqaddsel to m_seqadd.c, which adds all
2518 selected messages to a sequence.
2520 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,
2523 Thu May 15 00:53:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2525 * Renamed function pack_folder to m_packfolder, and moved it
2526 from uip/folder.c into its own file sbr/m_packfolder.c
2528 Wed May 14 23:38:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2530 * Changed function m_gmsg to m_readfolder. Renamed file

2547 * Added new options `-checkmime', `-nocheckmime', and `-mhnproc'
2548 to show. Restructured code to handle options to various
2549 `procs' better. Deprecated `-noshowproc' option and NOMHNPROC
2550 environment variable.
2552 * Added new man page `mh-draft' which documents the
2553 draft folder facility in nmh.
2555 * Renamed fmtsbr.h to fmt_scan.h. Renamed fmtcompile.h

2567 * Released nmh-0.13.
2569 * Changed mhpath so it doesn't abort if a message sequence
2570 such as "mhpath all" expands to more than 1000 messages.
2571 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
2572 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
2575 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
2576 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
2578 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2580 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if
2581 necessary. So `folders' can now handle more than 300 folders.
2583 Tue Apr 22 14:01:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2585 * Change configure to use a compile check to see if the tm struct
2586 has tm_gmtoff, rather than using egrep.

2601 * Replace the bit twiddling for SELECTED, UNSEEN, and
2602 mp->attrstats with macros.
2604 * If system doesn't have SIGEMT (like Linux), then use SIGTERM
2607 * Change fstat to stat in m_gmsg.c since Linux wants
2610 * Merge Linux patch sent in by Michel Oosterhof (original
2611 patch from bsa@kf8nh.wariat.org).
2613 * Document an undocumented MH feature. mhn -form mhl.null
2614 will suppress the display of the message header.
2616 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
2618 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c
2619 and mshcmds.c, rather than hard coding in /bin/cat.
2621 * Add mhnproc to the list of `procs' in mh-profile.man.
2623 * Add configure test for lorder and tsort commands.
2625 * Commented out the padding in the `msgs` struct in h/mh.h
2627 * Change m_gmsg.c to allocate elements to the `info' array by
2628 500 elements at a time (rather than MAXFOLDERS / 5).
2630 * Add note to man page for mhmail that zero length messages are
2631 not sent. Need to use -body "" to send empty messages.
2633 * zotnet/mts/mts.c : compare character with '\0', not NULL.
2635 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
2637 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
2638 folder/message structure when done with folder.
2640 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is
2641 defined even if message is missing "From " line.
2643 Mon Mar 31 03:37:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2645 * Released nmh-0.10.
2647 Sun Mar 30 21:46:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

2652 Thu Mar 20 03:21:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2654 * Reversed previous decision to retain "From " lines in slocal.
2655 The "From " line is now removed from all messages.
2657 * inc now saves the date from the "From " envelope in the
2658 Delivery-Date header for all messages.
2660 * sbr/m_getfld.c: Clean up processing of Return-Path and
2661 Delivery-Date from the "From " envelope.
2663 Mon Mar 17 19:03:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2665 * client.c: cast iaddr to int before comparing return value
2666 of inet_addr with NOTOK.
2668 Tue Mar 11 04:38:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2670 * Grep test for signal names was failing on some OS'es because
2671 of missing tabs in regex.
2673 Sat Mar 8 01:58:22 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2675 * Released nmh-0.09.
2677 * Move config files and format files to *.old before installing.
2679 * Add configure check for killpg.

2688 * Added `-mime' and `-nomime' options to `repl'.
2691 Tue Mar 4 03:10:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2693 * ruserpass.c : removed conflicting prototypes.
2695 * rcvtty.c : Fixed rcvtty to obey terminal permissions granted
2696 by `mesg' command. Previously only worked on BSD machines.
2698 Mon Mar 3 00:18:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2700 * rcvtty.c : Changed to use #define UTMP_FILE (if exists) rather
2701 than hard coded "/etc/utmp".
2703 * Released nmh-0.08.
2705 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
2706 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of
2707 locking database itself.
2709 Thu Feb 27 05:28:09 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2711 * Added slocal action `mmdf' to deliver to a file in mmdf format.
2713 * Changed the slocal actions `file' and `>' to always deliver in
2714 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
2717 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
2718 rather than mmdf format.
2720 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
2721 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
2722 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
2723 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
2725 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
2727 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2729 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
2732 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2733 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2734 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
2736 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2737 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2738 rcvpack so you can choose the preferred format.
2740 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2742 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
2743 can still easily change this in config.h).
2745 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
2746 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
2747 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
2749 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2751 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather
2752 than tzset and external timezone variable.
2754 Thu Feb 13 00:35:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2756 * Fixed typo in ruserpass.c in the variable toktabs.
2758 * When ruserpass was added to LIBOBJS, it was missing
2761 * Released nmh-0.07.
2763 Tue Feb 11 01:29:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2765 * Add check to configure, so that if ruserpass, or _ruserpass
2766 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
2768 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
2769 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
2772 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
2773 built-in FTP client in mhn.
2775 * Added configure check for ushort and ulong. Change code
2776 to use ushort/ulong rather than u_short/u_long.
2778 * A couple of small cleanups in locking code.
2780 * Added configure check for gmtoff element in struct tm.
2782 * Added configure check for tzset.
2784 Fri Feb 7 03:01:57 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2786 * Released nmh-0.06.
2788 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
2789 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
2791 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
2792 many such machines around anymore.
2794 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
2795 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
2797 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
2798 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
2800 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2802 * Check lex generated file in zotnet/tws and use
2803 pre-generated version if necessary.
2805 * Released nmh-0.05.
2807 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
2808 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
2809 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
2810 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
2812 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
2813 be linked in one pass.
2815 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2817 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
2818 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
2820 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2822 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
2824 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2826 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
2827 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
2828 become the current folder.
2830 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2832 * Released nmh-0.04.
2834 * Define ospeed and PC in termsbr.c is OS doesn't have
2837 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2839 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
2840 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
2841 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
2843 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2845 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
2846 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
2848 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2850 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
2851 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
2854 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
2855 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
2857 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2859 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
2860 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
2861 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
2862 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
2863 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
2864 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
2866 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2868 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
2869 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
2871 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
2872 a file (currently need to specify full path).
2874 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2876 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank

2879 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2881 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
2882 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
2883 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
2885 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2887 * Released nmh-0.03.
2889 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
2890 .mh_sequence file existed.
2892 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
2893 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
2895 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
2896 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
2899 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2901 * Changed flist option -unseen to -[no]all. Cleaned up
2904 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2906 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
2907 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
2908 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
2910 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2912 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
2913 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
2914 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
2916 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2918 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL
2919 and allocate its own buffer. Borrowed from zsh.
2921 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
2923 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2925 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
2926 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
2927 directory from where the source code is located.
2929 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2931 * Released nmh-0.02.

2938 Tue Dec 31 03:07:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2940 * Changed code to use strerror, rather than using sys_errlist
2941 and sys_nerr directly.
2943 Mon Dec 30 02:15:25 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2945 * -compat switch from install-mh removed.

2949 Sat Dec 28 13:25:05 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2951 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
2952 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
2953 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
2954 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
2955 rather than in script.
2957 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2959 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
2961 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with
2962 macro defined on Solaris.
2964 Thu Dec 26 02:50:15 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2966 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
2967 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
2969 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
2970 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
2971 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
2972 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
2975 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2977 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
2978 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.
2980 * Fixed configure test so that termcap variable ospeed is
2983 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2985 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
2987 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included

2992 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
2993 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
2995 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2997 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
2998 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
2999 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
3000 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
3001 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
3002 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
3004 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3006 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
3008 * Released nmh-0.01.
3010 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
3011 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
3012 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
3015 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3017 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
3020 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3022 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
3023 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
3025 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3027 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
3028 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
3029 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
3030 script to find_program.
3032 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3034 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
3035 speed up -recurse option.
3037 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
3038 yet, but it compiles :-)
3040 * Changed default location for install to
3041 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
3042 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
3043 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
3046 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
3047 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
3048 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
