1 2006-08-26 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
3 * configure.in: If we're not using dotlocking, there is no need to set
6 2006-03-30 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
8 * uip/sendsbr.c: with attachformat values of 1 or 2, only
9 generate Content-Disposition headers for MIME attachments, not
10 for the message contents themselves. Microsoft Outlook Build
11 10.0.6626, at least, doesn't show the message contents if they
12 have Content-Disposition.
14 2006-03-09 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
16 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c (decode_rfc2047): Don't close the iconv descriptor
19 2006-03-08 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
21 * (mh_strcasecmp): Rename the private strcasecmp function to
22 mh_strcasecmp. This keeps the newer gnu linker happy.
24 2006-03-05 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
26 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c: don't try to malloc 0 bytes if an RFC2047
27 encoded block is empty
29 2006-03-04 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
31 * etc/Makefile.in: use INSTALL_SCRIPT to install scripts;
32 this allows INSTALL_PROGRAM to be set to 'install -s' so
33 binaries are stripped on installation. Apparently the BSDs
36 2006-02-25 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
38 * uip/sendsbr.c: replaced st_mtim with st_mtime, that's what
39 it should have been. Added #include of h/tws.h to pick up
42 2006-02-20 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
44 * h/mh.h, h/prototypes.h, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, uip/send.c,
45 uip/sendsbr.c, uip/viamail.c, uip/whatnowsbr.c, man/send.man:
46 added -attachformat switch to send, to support alternate MIME
47 header contents when using -attach. See send man page for
50 * man/mhbuild.man: wrapped one appearance of "Content-Disposition"
51 with quotes, to be consistent with others.
53 2006-02-20 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
55 * h/utils.h, sbr/utils.c, uip/flist.c, uip/folder.c: Move duplicate
56 function num_digits into utils.c
58 2006-02-19 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
60 * sbr/m_draft.c, sbr/utils.c, uip/folder.c, uip/inc.c,
61 uip/mhstoresbr.c, uip/popi.c, uip/refile.c: Add create_folder()
62 function, replacing duplicate code during folder creation.
64 2006-02-18 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
66 * h/mime.h, h/mhparse.h, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, uip/mhfree.c,
67 man/mhbuild.man, docs/TODO: added support for an optional
68 Content-Disposition header in mhbuild (only). Its contents
69 are supplied between {}, positioned after the optional [], in
70 a mhbuild directive. If the contents do not contain a
71 "filename=" parameter, and the directive has a filename, or
72 something else that ends with "name=", then that will be used
73 to add a "filename=" parameter to the header.
75 2006-02-12 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
77 * docs/TODO: added RFC2183 to reference of RFC1806 for
78 Content-Disposition header.
80 2006-01-31 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
82 * uip/mhbuild.c, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, man/mhbuild.man: added
83 -nocontentid switch, to disable generation of Content-ID:
84 header in MIME messages. (Also added -contentid for
85 symmetry.) The default configuration of Microsoft Outlook,
86 Build 10.0.3416 in particular, doesn't see attachments in
87 incoming messages if there are Content-ID headers, see
88 http://home.cwru.edu/~wrv/eudoraoutlookfix.html. This allows
89 users to easily accomodate that by adding
90 mhbuild: -nocontentid to their .mh_profile.
92 2006-01-29 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
94 * bug 4360: uip/replsbr.c: remove trailing newlines from components
95 to fix bug with spaces at the end of Subject/References in replies
97 2006-01-18 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
99 * configure.in: use AS_HELP_STRING for formatting help messages
101 * configure.in, sbr/fmt_scan.c: add autoconf magic to support
102 old systems that don't support multibyte character sets
104 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: fix bug with insertion of newline being wrong if
105 the num function was used at the end of the format buffer
107 2006-01-17 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
109 * uip/post.c, uip/spost.c: in make_bcc_file (), use same
110 logic as in finish_headers () to detect whether there is an
111 existing From: line in the draft. If draft_from masquerade
112 flag is enabled, this allows the From: to be obeyed in the
113 Bcc, instead of the old behavior of always replacing it with
116 2006-01-17 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
118 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: more robust multi-byte/column support for field
119 widths, restoring right justification feature
121 2006-01-16 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
123 * h/aliasbr.h, h/rcvmail.h, man/Makefile.in, man/slocal.man,
124 sbr/lock_file.c, uip/aliasbr.c, uip/dropsbr.c, uip/post.c,
125 uip/slocal.c, man/mh-mts.man: remove remnants of code for MMDF
127 * uip/scansbr.c: multiply buffer size by MB_CUR_MAX so multi-byte
130 2006-01-14 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
132 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: Turn the PUTSF macro into a function capable of
133 handling multi column characters.
135 2006-01-07 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
137 * Remove sbr/strerror.c -- strerror(3) is defined in C89.
139 2006-01-06 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
141 * patch #3968: Move the add() function from its own file (add.c) and
142 into utils.c. There was also a duplicate add() function in mf.c which
145 2006-01-02 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
147 * Remove sbr/pwd.c file, moving the pwd() function into sbr/utils.c.
149 2006-01-01 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
151 * patch #3967: Create a mh_xrealloc function to prevent mistakes when
154 2006-01-01 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
156 * patch #3966: Create a mh_xmalloc function to prevent mistakes when
159 2005-12-24 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
161 * Bug #15285: Don't use $< in target rules in makefiles, as POSIX
162 says it's only defined in inference rules. (BSD make was expanding
163 $< to the empty string in the rule for building sbr/dtimep.c, which
164 causes lex to apparently hang because it's reading from stdin.)
166 2005-12-24 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
168 * Completely redo db library checking -- we now check for working
169 (include file, library) pairs rather than checking for headers and
170 libraries separately. We also now provide --with-ndbm=lib and
171 --with-ndbmheader=header options to configure to handle situations
172 where configure's autodetection fails.
174 2005-12-21 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
176 * Fix stupid accidental dependence on a bash quirk in previous
177 configure script change.
179 2005-12-15 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
181 * Improve checking for Berkeley db libraries: configure should now
182 find a suitable library on systems with new gdbm where
183 compatibility functions are in the gdbm_compat library, and on
186 2005-12-13 Michael Forrest <mef@computer.org>
188 * Fedora Bug #163760: sbr/context_read.c (context_read): Ensure that
189 the context is only read once.
191 2005-12-12 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
193 * uip/sendsbr.c (annoaux): Fix the call to annotate() fixing a bug
194 which prevented repl from properly annotating messages.
196 2005-12-07 Jon Steinhart <nmh@fourwinds.com>
198 * Fixed a bug where anno -append put the headers in the wrong place
199 if applied to a message that didn't contain any headers.
201 * Added a special value of "all" to the -number option that causes
202 anno -delete to delete all matching components instead of just
205 * Added new -preserve and -nopreserve options. Using -preserve
206 retains the original last accessed and last modified times on
209 2005-12-05 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
211 * Fedora Bug #174983: configure.in: Fix the AC_PATH_PROG default when
212 vi isn't found during build.
214 2005-11-19 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
216 * bug #14977: sbr/context_read.c: special case an MHCONTEXT of
217 "/dev/null" and don't try to lock it.
219 * bug #9228, debian bug #146449: man/mh-profile.man: make it clearer
220 that lower case environment variables (and in particular mheditor)
221 are internal to nmh and not intended to be set by the user.
223 2005-11-09 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
225 * sbr/mf.c: fix buffer overrun with absurdly long addresses
226 (only causes crashes if scan is run with '-width 16536' or similar)
228 * bug #7917: sbr/context_foil.c, sbr/context_read.c,
229 sbr/context_save.c: mark 'no context' with NULL rather than
230 "/dev/null" so we don't inadvertently try to lock /dev/null (which
231 takes up to a minute in some locking configurations and makes post
234 * patch #3913: uip/post.c: pass some globals into sm_init() so that
235 it uses SASL if necessary. (This bug was preventing Bcc'd emails
236 from being sent via SASL authenticated SMTP.)
238 * bug #9813: uip/rmf.c: don't crash if there's no Current-Folder
239 entry in the context file.
241 2005-11-13 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
243 * bug #7833: uip/Makefile.in: remove link to install-mh that caused
244 problems on some systems
246 * bug #739: Makefile.in: install target now depends on all to avoid
247 problem on case-insensitive file systems with the INSTALL file
249 2005-11-10 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
251 * Fedora Bug #172838: configure.in: Fix the AC_PATH_PROG default when
252 sendmail isn't found during build.
254 2005-11-09 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
256 * h/aliasbr.h: fix a non-ANSI prototype.
258 2005-11-08 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
260 * Simon Burge: acconfig.h, configure.in, uip/rcvtty.c, uip/slocal.c:
261 fix to handle getutent() on NetBSD
263 * INSTALL, README, docs/README.about, man/nmh.man: update most
264 references to the web page and mailing list locations
266 * bug #10230: etc/Makefile.in, man/Makefile.in, uip/Makefile.in:
267 Michael De La Rue: prepend DESTDIR to install locations
269 * configure.in, */Makefile.in, mts/smtp/smtp.c: replace obsolete
272 2005-11-06 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
274 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, sbr/fmt_scan.c, h/prototypes.h: fix various
275 possible overruns of the buffers in fmt_scan() which would cause
276 crashes if scan was run with '-width 16536' or similar.
278 * uip/popsbr.c: fix compile error which only showed up if nmh
279 was configured with --enable-apop.
281 * Debian Bug# 245932, RedHat Bug# 172388: uip/mhparse.c: don't
282 crash when handling a multipart MIME message with an invalid
283 Content-Type header (file handle was being fclose()d twice).
285 * sbr/Makefile.in: adjust lex command to work on both old and
286 new versions of flex.
288 * configure.in: add an AC_PREREQ() so autoconf 2.13 gives a helpful
289 error message and the Debian autoconf-version-guessing wrapper
290 doesn't guess wrongly.
292 2005-11-02 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
294 * Debian Bug# 320069: Nick Rusnov: uip/popsbr.c: fail when
295 kpop connection attempted without KPOP support compiled in
297 * Debian Bug# 320090: Nick Rusnov: sbr/Makefile.in: fix for newer
298 version of flex and remove autogenerated file from cvs
300 * patch #1155: uip/flist.c: speed up flist by skipping stat on
301 files with numbers as names
303 * docs/Makefile.in: include new files in distribution
305 2005-10-11 Bill Wohler <wohler@newt.com>
307 * docs/FAQ: fold questions into MH FAQ and distribute that instead
309 2005-10-05 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
311 * Harald Geyer: h/mh.h, uip/replsbr.c: back out previous change
312 (fork/vfork) and replace with code that handles the issue directly
314 2005-05-18 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
316 * Debian Bug# 143485: Nick Rusnov: h/mh.h: use fork instead of
319 * Debian Bug# 261592: Harald Geyer: uip/mhlsbr.c, uip/replsbr.c:
320 test/report error writing to stdout
322 * mts/smtp/smtp.c, uip/popsbr.c: correct SASL include file locations
324 * docs/COMPLETION-BASH: bash completion definitions from Debian
326 * patch #2863: savannah@brisammon.fastmail.fm: sbr/folder_read.c:
327 fix a bug affecting AFS where nmh was setting the READONLY flag
328 for a folder even when you do have write access to the folder
330 * Carl Mummert: h/fmt_compile.h, man/mh-format.man,
331 sbr/fmt_compile.c, sbr/fmt_scan.c: add unquote() function for
332 removing quotes from RFC-2822 encoded headers
334 2005-02-23 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
336 * use iconv to convert RFC-2047 encoded headers to the
337 character set used by the current locale
339 * sbr/folder_read.c fix Debian bug #202667: crash when a
340 message's filename overflows an int when converted
342 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
343 versions (from automake 1.9.5)
345 2005-02-21 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
347 * sbr/getpass.c fix bug where inc crashed on failing to reopen
350 2005-01-27 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
352 * Added -proxy option to inc and msgchk. Based on old patch
353 from Michael Richardson.
355 * On systems where it is available, use nl_langinfo to get the
356 character set if MM_CHARSET is unset
358 2005-01-21 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
360 * sbr/check_charset.c US-ASCII is a subset of UTF-8 so can be
361 handled directly when UTF-8 is being used
363 2004-12-17 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
365 * uip/mhmisc.c Fix -part option to mhshow/mhlist/mhstore to
366 find sub-parts of the specified part
368 2004-11-19 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
370 * h/prototypes.h, sbr/folder_addmsg.c, uip/mhstoresbr.c,
371 uip/rcvstore.c, uip/refile.c: Added mail directory argument to
372 folder_addmsg in order to make it possible to provide a path to
373 the ext_hook call that is mailpath-based. A problem existed when
374 a folder was a symbolic link and the pwd call would return the
375 path relative to the filesystem, not to mailpath. A new argument
376 was needed because there was otherwise no reasonable way to get
379 2004-11-16 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
381 * sbr/folder_pack.c: Fixed problem where the refile hook was being
382 called after a message was renamed so that it wasn't around for
383 the hook. The hook is now called before the message file is
386 * sbr/folder_addmsg.c: Fixed wrong directory for hook when
387 refiling with -src option.
389 2004-10-15 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
391 * uip/sortm.c: Fixed calling of external hooks.
393 2004-10-12 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
395 * uip/inc.c: Fixed another weird bug caused by the static
396 mailpath being overwritten.
398 * uip/sendsbr.c: Fixed bug that caused anno to mangle headers.
400 * sbr/lock_file.c: Fixed strange bug that prevented a lock from
401 ever being obtained if getting it failed the first time. The
402 problem was that the string of XXXXXX that is required by
403 mkstemp() was overwritten the first time through, and so all
404 subsequent times failed because mkstemp() failed. The fix
405 reinitializes the tmp file string.
407 * uip/inc.c: Fixed bug in which the static maildir was overwritted
408 if a format string was read from the profile.
410 * sbr/folder_delmsgs.c: Fixed bug that was producing an incorrect
411 path for the external hook.
413 2003-10-06 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
415 * uip/slocal.c, configure.in: db configuration fix for Debian; yet
416 another location for ndbm.
418 2003-09-30 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
420 * Fix 'pick' so handling of options "-list" and "-seq" are
422 * Fix 'inc' realloc error when bringing in more than 100 msgs
424 * Patches submitted by Nick Rusnov from Debian archive applied:
427 136976 - Handle binary content messages
428 143427 - mh-format.man typo
429 144098 - 'spost; should have same behavior as 'post'
430 w.r.t. mts.conf masquerade line
431 149745 - slocal ignores 'N' result of previous command
432 152728 - increase SMTP timeouts to conform to RFC 1123
433 The timeouts suggested by the RFC seem long
434 to me - but the RFC is still listed as active.
435 181867 - typo for nmh.man
437 2003-08-10 Jeffrey C Honig <jch@honig.net>
439 * Fix problem where parsing of address/date fields in fmt_compile
440 is optimized to the first instance. The first instance may be in
441 contitional code which will result in cached data to
442 be used. Instead, convert c_flags to a flags field from a boolean
443 and parse on the first use.
444 * Remove some unused flag bits.
446 Fri Jul 01 22:02:00 2003 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
448 * Applied fixes for configuration problems with Solaris and
449 systems with gdbm instead of db1 (includes bug #2024)
451 #578 - repl leaks umask
452 #1393 - sortm core dumps
453 #1650 - msh leaks file descriptors
454 #1730 - Double free() in mhfree.c:free_encoding()
455 #3356 - In-Reply-To header in default replcomps should be
457 * Revised man page for mh-format (bug #2031)
458 * New replcomps, etc, with Fcc: +outbox in default versions
460 Sat Mar 17 03:18:15 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
462 * Ken Hornstein's configure.in Cyrus SASL checks were doing
463 `x"$with_cyrus_sasl" != "no"' instead of `... != x"no"'.
465 Tue Mar 06 21:04:27 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
467 * Found some historical information about MH in RFC 808.
468 Supplemented it with info from Jerry Peek's MH book and added it
469 to docs/README.about.
471 Tue Feb 6 20:35:40 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
473 * sbr/dtime.c Use the same Y2K correction code as dtimep.lex
475 * sbr/dtimep.lex Restrict the parser to accept either
476 a numerical timezone offset, or a symbolic one (e.g. EST),
477 but not both (Since "2000 -400 EDT" might cause a double
478 subtraction of 60 minutes if both are parsed. One should be
481 Mon Feb 05 20:22:54 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
483 * -L isn't sufficient for specifying the path of the Cyrus SASL
484 shared library. That'll allow us to link successfully, but on
485 many/most OSes that won't allow us to find libsasl at runtime. On
486 Solaris, we need to specify the library path with -R as well (or
487 else the user will have to use the $LD_LIBRARY_PATH kludge, which
488 is considered harmful). This fix should be extended to other OSes
491 * Print whether we have SASL support in the "nmh configuration"
492 summary configure prints out.
494 * Say in README.developers to use `\date' in case anyone is like
495 me and has `date' aliased in their shell to use a nonstandard (but
496 subjectively more readable) format.
498 Thu Jan 25 21:15:52 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
500 * man/mh-chart.man has updated synposes of
503 Tue Jan 23 20:26:15 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
505 * etc/digestcomps tried to force dates into a
506 19xx when it's not necessary.
508 Fri Jan 19 21:22:08 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
510 * First round of manpage updates finished. They
511 are standardized on -man macros, with minimal
514 * man/tmac.h.in is no longer needed, since the
515 manpages do not depend on them anymore. Note:
516 strict "man" programs that didn't allow ".so"
517 sourcing outside the man tree will now format
518 the man pages correctly.
520 * man/vmh.1 is no longer built, since uip/vmh isn't
522 Tue Jan 9 6:01:22 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
524 * Finished manpages ali-prev
526 * Removed deprecated files from the repository.
527 Specifically, those rooted in zotnet/ and mts/sendmail
528 mts/mmdf. "cvs update -dP" will give a pruned directory
531 * Updated docs/Makefile.in to include README.manpages, and
532 uip/Makefile.in to include popi.c (which isn't being built,
533 though). This allows "make nmhdist" to create an archive that
534 is file-for-file identical to the current cvs repository.
536 Sun Dec 31 20:48:50 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
538 * Create docs/README.manpages, which details
539 the formatting rules I've been using.
543 Sat Dec 30 9:50:13 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
545 * Created a new file "DATE" to hold the date
546 of the most recent nmh release. This date will be
547 used in the manpages.
549 * Updated docs/README.developers to add the step
550 of updating DATE. Also, updated configure to
551 read in the contents of the file as the variable
554 * Started work on updating man pages, with only
555 ali finished so far. Changes: 1) no dependence
556 on an external macro file, 2) uses only
557 -man macros (although I may be mistaken in this),
558 3) syntax in the SYNOPSIS is a little more
559 in line with standard UNIX documentation, such as
560 bold flags and italicized parameters.
562 Sun Dec 24 10:06:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
564 * Updated INSTALL with information about the
565 --with-locking option.
567 * Fixed the Hesiod tests in configure.in. In
568 systems where res_send was in -lresolv, this
569 information was not being communicated to the
570 HESIOD_LIBS var. Now, if res_send is not found
571 in the default libraries, it's assumed to be
572 in -lresolv, and thus -lresolv is appended to
573 HESIOD_LIBS, which will need that to avoid
574 undefined symbols problems.
576 * Fixed the Kerberos tests in configure.in. New
577 versions of Kerberos 5 have renamed -lcrypto
578 to -lk5crypto (circa krb5 1.1 or thereabouts). The
579 new test tries to determine if -lk5crypto exists. If so,
580 this is a new krb5 system. If not, test for -lcrypto
581 and the rest of old krb5. If that fails, look
582 for a genuine krb4 installation.
584 Fri Dec 22 22:08:51 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
586 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in msgchk.man.
587 -snoop was documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
589 Fri Dec 22 23:42:16 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
591 * Made a new ./configure option called
592 "--with-locking" that allows the file
593 locking mechanism to be chosen there instead of
594 requiring a manual edit of config.h.
596 * If the option is not explicitly set, or an
597 invalid option is specified, "dot" locking is
598 chosen. Valid options are "dot", "fcntl",
599 "flock", and "lockf". We need a way to tell
600 the user that these are the valid options, and
601 change the flag "--with-locking" if it's not
604 Fri Dec 22 19:21:29 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
606 * Remove the lex-specific memory hints at the
607 beginning of sbr/dtimep.lex. We've already
608 committed to supporting flex only, since
609 lex does not easily allow us to parse a single
610 string, as well as other problems documented
611 below and on nmh-workers.
613 * Added a switch statement to configure.in to
614 test for Mac OS X. If this is the case, LDFLAGS
615 should not contain "-s" since the linker rejects
618 * Updated MACHINES to include Mac OS X Public Beta,
619 as well as Linux 2.4 running glibc 2.2.
621 Wed Dec 20 16:00:46 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
623 * Marked deprecated directories in docs/README.developers
624 as deprecated, with pointers to the new code location.
625 Eventually these deprecated directories should go away.
627 Tue Dec 19 19:16:37 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
629 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in inc.man. -snoop was
630 documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
632 Thu Dec 14 14:32:09 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
634 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
635 versions on ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/config, dated
636 12-07-00. This should prevent configure from failing
637 on newer operating systems because config.{guess,sub}
638 couldn't correctly identify them.
640 Thu Dec 14 1:30:44 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
642 * Fixed the circular dependency created when I moved
643 zotnet/mts to mts/generic and merged them into libmts.
644 mts/generic/client.c and mts/generic/mts.c are now in sbr/
645 (and thus in libmh), which makes libmh self-contained and
646 not depending on an external archive.
648 * All include statements now look for mts.h in h/. The
649 Makefiles and configure script have been modified so that
650 mts/generic is no longer built.
652 Mon Dec 11 22:08:07 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
654 * When Shantonu made the new libmts.a, he swapped $(MTSLIB) and
655 libmh.a in sbr/Makefile.in so that libmh.a comes first, but this
656 causes the build to fail on Solaris, because libmts.a has to get
657 ruserpass() out of libmh.a. Swapping them back to the way Ken
658 Hornstein's patch (which I applied on Jul 20) put them, with
659 libmh.a correctly coming second. If there are times when libmts.a
660 needs to come second, then it would appear there's a circular
661 dependency and someone (Shantonu?) did an mts merge incorrectly.
663 Fri Sep 8 01:36:23 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
665 * Took out bad time textual time zones like BST and JST.
666 I found them online somewhere, but am not sure if they're
669 Fri Sep 8 00:36:48 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
671 * Moved zotnet/mts to mts/generic. This code reorganization
672 makes the entire zotnet tree deprecated -- bboards is unneeded,
673 mf was was moved to sbr, tws was rewritten and moved to sbr, and
676 * Created a new static library called libmts.a used during
677 compilation which includes the generic mts code and the
678 smtp/sendmail code. This supercedes the functionality of the
679 old libsmtp.a and the remains of libzot.a.
681 * Updated header includes to reference the new location of mts.h
682 in mts/generic/mts.h. Also, update the configure and top-level
683 Makefile not to descend into zotnet. Also, they don't descend
684 into mts/mmdf and mts/sendmail (the sendmail code has been
685 merged into the smtp code).
687 * Added #include <h/nmh.h> to h/md5.h, since my compile was
688 complaining about implicitly-declared memcpy and memset, which
689 appear to be in strings.h. In any event, nmh.h should take care
692 * When doing a "make nmhdist", notice that the generated
693 snapshot does not include zotnet of the mts directories as noted
694 above. Since they are no longer compiled, and I don't see any
695 obvious code path to get to them, end-users should probably
696 not need them. If you think otherwise, turn Makefile generation
697 back on in configure.in and turn on recursion into those dirs
698 in the appropriate Makefile.in
700 Wed Sep 6 22:40:03 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
702 * Tracked down the problem in the new dtimep where time
703 zones were being radically misreported. It was because the
704 parser knew about military time zones (such as M or E) but in
705 some cases did not know about the textual representation of
706 some zones (like MET). When it encountered one of these, the
707 date parser misread MET as the military time zone T (well, first
708 zone M, then E, and finally T). I took military zones out, and
709 things seem much better. Also, the default behavior of parsing
710 time zones appears to default to GMT in the absence of better
711 info, which is less bogus than assuming the mail came from the
712 current time zone, which was the behavior in 1.04.
714 Thu Aug 10 13:22:13 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
716 * Decided that limiting the message number columns to 3 on my
717 scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD (to try to regain space taken by
718 extra date info) was ill-conceived. It's not that tough to get
719 past 999 messages, though I imagine it's rather rare to exceed
720 9999. Changed these to 4. Also put the "replied / encrypted"
721 column back in YYYYMMDD -- I've never seen it show anything but a
722 space, but that space is useful if you use scan, grep, and awk
723 (with the default field separator) to grab message numbers (I know
724 -- pick should really be used for these purposes...).
726 Mon Aug 7 20:11:09 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
728 * Modify umask set by mhshow to enable user execute bit, so that
729 viewers that create temporary directories (e.g., lynx) will be
732 Thu Aug 03 17:14:08 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
734 * TODO: Allow multiple simultaneous differing contexts, probably
735 each tied to a parent (terminal) process.
737 Tue Aug 1 10:48:05 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
739 * Makefile install rules should not look for generated files in
740 the source tree -- this will happen to work when configuring and
741 building inside the source tree but will fail when using an
742 external build tree. Fixed etc/Makefile.in.
744 Mon Jul 24 16:20:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
746 * When Shantonu wrote the new, more portable dtimep.lex, he left
747 out the #ifdef DSTXXX stuff for some reason. Not a good idea, as
748 that code is required for proper printing of numeric-offset
749 timezones that have daylight saving time. Without that code,
750 -0700 during DST gets printed as MST instead of PDT.
752 * Renamed DSTXXX as ADJUST_NUMERIC_ONLY_TZ_OFFSETS_WRT_DST and
753 added an explanatory comment by its #definition.
755 * Updated README.developers with the fact that zotnet/tws is going away.
757 Thu Jul 20 20:30:52 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
759 * Moved Kimmo's new "--with-hash-backup" to be output with the
760 rest of the --with options in the configure --help output. Also,
761 people did not preserve my alphabetization of the --with options
762 when they added new ones. Re-alphabetized.
764 * One more pass at README.developers now that it's clear that my
765 previously-suggested one-line autoconf-file commit can cause
766 unnecessary local makes and an out-of-sync stamp-h.in file, but
767 would not cause problems for other people using the CVS files.
769 * Ken Hornstein's SASL patch was not integrated properly with
770 Ruud's new merged mts/sendmail code. Kimmo has since fixed nmh so
771 it compiles, but according to Ken, the SASL stuff still does not
772 work. Integrating a patch from him for this.
774 * Last pass at README.developers -- Kimmo's 5-step commit was
775 overkill. You only need 3 steps, since configure.in is the only
776 autoconf file with the RCS $Id keyword.
778 * Applied Kurt J. Lidl <lidl@eng.us.uu.net>'s $MAILHOST patch:
780 I have a small patch that would be nice to be included --
781 basically, it allows the usage of the "MAILHOST" environment
782 variable, without having to have HESIOD turned on. I need
783 this functionality for my environment, where we have identical
784 /usr/local on all my machines (so I cannot just hardcode into
785 the mts.conf file), and I have multiple POP mail servers for
788 Modified inc.man to reflect that along with "pophost:" and -host,
789 $MAILHOST can now activate POP mail inclusion as well.
791 * Fixed warnings from diff on first-time install of nmh. Also
792 added 'echo's clarifying the etc file installation activities.
794 Tue Jul 18 19:36:59 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
796 * Added the answer to Dan's question in README.developers.
798 Mon Jul 17 19:10:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
800 * Clarified and made some corrections to Kimmo's README.developers
801 changes (BTW, if anyone can explain why the RCS Ids are able to cause
802 problems with the dependencies, please fill in the explanation --
803 I never encountered a problem with the old single-commit method).
805 Sat Jul 15 23:13:49 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
807 * Add configure option --with-hash-backup so the backup prefix can
808 be easily changed from "," to "#".
810 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that it works with any make.
812 * Use mkstemp in sbr/lock_file.c.
814 * Commits of autoconf-related files apparently can't all be done
815 in one shot due to RCS Ids changing when committing -- updated
818 Tue Jul 11 14:18:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
820 * Clarified post.man and send.man for those not completely up on
821 SASL terminology. "SASL encryption layers are not supported for
822 SMTP" means that encryption is supported for the authentication
823 but not for the subsequent data stream.
825 Sat Jul 8 01:36:19 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
827 * Applied Ken Hornstein <kenh@cmf.nrl.navy.mil>'s patches
828 implementing SASL support for POP3 and SMTP. If nmh is compiled
829 with SASL support, using the -sasl switch on the inc, msgchk,
830 post, and send commands will enable authentication encryption for
831 SMTP, and both authentication and data stream encryption for POP3.
833 Sat Jun 10 18:37:59 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
835 * Merged mts/sendmail functionality into mts/smtp; switching between
836 smtp and sendmail delivery method is now controlled by mts.conf.
838 * If tsort cannot deal with loops, in addition to defining tsort as
839 cat, also define lorder as echo.
841 * Removed uip/popi.c from list of sources.
843 Thu Jun 08 19:36:57 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
845 * New dtimep.lex didn't parse day names properly. Fixed. Also
846 clarified ambiguous comments preceding day_map[] array (from old
847 dtimep.lex) that probably led to the erroneous cp++ being added.
849 Wed Jun 7 20:52:33 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
851 * Added one more mkstemp invocation to uip/spost.c (which was in a
854 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to clean up permissions handling
855 and error handling in uip/inc.c.
857 Mon Jun 5 22:10:07 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
859 * Use cat instead of tsort if tsort cannot deal with loops in its
860 input (which is the case for tsort from GNU textutils).
862 Mon Jun 5 21:14:36 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
864 * If lockfile is present, and its dotlockfile program is setgid,
865 inc does not need to be setgid.
867 Sun Jun 4 21:35:40 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
869 * Added autoconf test for Miquel van Smoorenburg's liblockfile
870 library, as found on Debian systems.
872 * Added liblockfile support to sbr/lock_file.c.
874 Wed May 31 7:19:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
876 * Fixed up dtimep.lex a bit. Added back memory options for AIX to
877 increase available memory. Took out %option noyywrap, which
878 wasn't understood by AT&T lex, as well as the -i
879 case-insensitivity flag.
881 Wed May 31 07:40:45 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
883 * Added a lint target to the Makefiles and a check in autoconf
884 to determine whether lint or lclint exists on the system.
886 Fri May 30 19:21:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
888 * etc/Makefile.in was incorrectly installing mts.conf.in and
889 sendfiles.in -- fixed. Generated sendfiles script was not a
890 dependency of the `all' target, and was incorrectly included in
891 the distribution. Changed the suffix for the backed-up previous
892 versions of the etc files from the ambiguous .old to .prev. Added
893 call to diff -- only keep the .prev files around if different from
894 the newly-installed versions (intentionally didn't redirect output
895 to /dev/null so you'll notice when your changed versions are
896 getting moved aside).
898 * INSTALL never documented the etc/*.old thing. Documented the
899 new etc/*.prev thing (including a note to watch for diff output).
901 * Applied Alec Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu>'s dropsbr.c patch:
903 In the map_write routine, a call is made to map_open and this
904 call is supposed to set the "clear" variable to 0 or 1,
905 depending on whether the map file is empty or not. In
906 mh6.8.3, this worked because map_open would set "clear" by
907 calling the mbx_Xopen routine. In nmh, the code for mbx_Xopen
908 was merged into mbx_open, but the interface for mbx_open
909 doesn't support the clear variable, so that functionality was
910 lost. The map_open interface still contains "int *clear" in
911 the prototype, but never sets it.
913 My patch eliminates "clear" from the map_open interface (I
914 checked to make sure that map_write is the only client of
915 map_open). Furthermore, my patch also sets the "clear"
916 variable properly at the beginning of map_write by calling
917 fstat(). This eliminates the bug in that the value of "clear"
918 being used later in the routine was just stack garbage.
920 Having a bad value of clear causes this next bug to be
921 triggered: The fp file pointer was being opened with fdopen,
922 but in two of the three switch cases it wasn't being closed.
923 In certain cases, this was causing packf to run out of file
924 descriptors if you attempted to pack a large folder.
926 Mon May 29 7:48:15 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
928 * Moved the date parsing routines from zotnet/tws to sbr/ (and
929 tws.h to h/). Updated all source files to reflect to new location
932 * Rewrote dparsetime (in dtimep.lex -> dtimep.c) to replace the
933 old zotnet/tws/dtimep.c, dtimep.lex, lexstring.c, lexedit.c, and
934 dtimep.c-lexed. It should now work with flex (although untested
935 with lex), and requires no sed-ing. For now, I have the lexed
936 version in the distribution, so that end-users don't need to worry
937 about running it through flex/lex. I have not added back support
938 for guessing the time zone when it's not specified.
940 Sun May 28 17:44:15 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
942 * Added autoconf check for getutent().
944 * Changed uip/rcvtty.c and uip/slocal.c to use getutent() and
945 friends. Since I can only check on Linux, please check if
946 this works on other systems.
948 Sun May 28 14:58:49 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
950 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to uip/scansbr.c for more
951 checks for write failures.
953 * Unlink temporary file properly in uip/rcvtty.c.
955 * Moved viamail from bindir to libdir.
957 * Changed sendfiles into sendfiles.in, so that path to viamail
960 * Added gzip support to sendfiles.
962 * Added References header to replcomps and replgroupcomps.
964 Sun May 28 14:39:31 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
966 * Fixed m_getfld bug which caused segmentation faults when
967 incorporating messages which ended in multiple linefeeds crossing
970 Fri May 26 13:21:59 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
972 * msh has been unable to show MIME messages ever since 1.0. Alec
973 Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu> tracked down the problem to the
974 -show flag being passed to mhshow. mhshow is equivalent to the
975 old mhn -show, so we don't need the -show anymore. Removed it.
977 Fri May 12 02:51:21 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
979 * zotnet/bboards is not longer built by default. Goal is to move
980 the assorted functions in zotnet into sbr or some more logical
983 * Moved zotnet/mf to sbr, and changed mf.h references accordingly,
984 as well as Makefiles.
986 Thu May 11 02:21:34 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
988 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that both SRCS and OBJS aren't
989 seperately and redundantly defined, but so that OBJS is a
990 pattern-substituted version of SRCS with suffix .c -> .o. This
991 should make maintainability easier.
993 * Added section to MACHINES indicating what platforms nmh is known
994 to compile and work on, just to give users peace of mind, or
995 something. This is by no means complete or exhaustive, so add
996 whatever you know works.
998 Tue May 09 20:38:04 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1000 * Alphabetized Shantonu's $pop_kinds output on configure's "pop is
1001 enabled" line. If POP3 is the only kind of POP enabled, say so,
1002 rather than just saying "yes" (which is ambiguous).
1004 * Fixed four warnings in Shantonu's new getpass.c. Needed to
1005 #include <stdlib.h> for calloc(), <unistd.h> for ttyname(), and
1006 "h/mh.h" for adios(). Also changed ch from char to int to get rid
1007 of "comparison is always 1 due to limited range of data type" on EOF.
1009 * Added steps to README.developers saying to change the version
1010 number to X.Y.Z+dev. Did a little rearranging and changed the FTP
1011 dir from /home/ftp to /var/ftp to reflect Doug's new machine.
1013 * Changed configure.in to use gcc -Wall even without
1014 --enable-debug, to prevent developers compiling optimized from
1015 introducing warnings, and to give end-users a warm, fuzzy feeling
1016 as they (hopefully) see no warnings come out (except perhaps on
1017 the lex output file) even with -Wall.
1019 * Renamed getpass() to nmh_getpass() since the prototype for
1020 getpass() varies from OS to OS, and we want to _always_ use our
1021 version of the function. Fixed all the callers to use
1022 nmh_getpass() and added it to prototypes.h. Semi-arbitrarily
1023 upped MAX_PASSWORD_LEN from 128 to 256. buf was being calloc()'d
1024 and the memory leaked -- should have just been declared as static
1025 char array. Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the
1026 copyright message, as this version has been changed significantly
1027 from the BSD version.
1029 * Added "nmh-local functions to use in preference to OS versions"
1030 section to README.developers (currently just says to use
1031 nmh_getpass() instead of system getpass()).
1033 * Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the copyright message
1034 in ruserpass.c also.
1036 * Added mts.conf.5 page per Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s
1039 This happens on solaris:
1042 windex entry incorrect: mts.conf(5) not found.
1043 No manual entry for mts.conf.
1047 % echo ".so man5/mh-tailor.5" > mts.conf.5
1049 done in the man5 directory. We need to add 'mts.conf.5' as a
1050 reference sourcing mh-tailor.5.
1052 Mon May 08 23:51:55 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1054 * Doug informed me that the way I had restored the "lost" version
1055 histories was wrong, because `cvs checkout's of old versions of
1056 nmh wouldn't work properly. It occurs to me that this could be
1057 fixed by simply deleting those tags in the new-location *,v files,
1058 but oh well. I'm putting everything back to the way Doug
1059 originally had it. To get the old version history for a file that
1060 used to be in the top directory, you'll need to "blindly" do a
1061 `cvs log' there (even though you won't have a local copy of the
1062 file in that directory). `cvs diff' will no longer be able to
1063 diff pre-move versions vs. post-move versions -- you'll have to do
1064 a lot of manual gyrations with `cvs checkout' and then use `diff'.
1066 * I had alphabetized the --configure options in the --help output
1067 awhile back, but Shantonu added --enable-apop just under
1068 --enable-pop. Put it in alphabetical order and clarified what
1069 --enable-apop does vs. --enable-pop and --with-krb4. Also changed
1070 --with-mts help line from "mail transport agent" to "mail
1071 transport agent/service" so the 's' in "mts" doesn't seem to come
1074 * Added two steps to "releasing nmh" in README.developers. After
1075 making the tarball, it's a good idea to diff the tree vs. the CVS
1076 tree to make sure no files got left out, and then to chown the
1077 files so that they're owned by root, preventing a Trojaning attack
1078 by a malicious remote user with a UID matching yours.
1080 * Changed DIFFERENCES to say that RPOP is not currently supported
1081 rather than implying it by saying that APOP, KPOP, and POP[3] are.
1083 Sun May 07 18:16:43 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1085 * Imported NetBSD version of getpass() and made extensive
1086 revisions for compatibility with programs that pipe the password
1087 to stdin, such as exmh.
1089 * Removed tests for system ruserpass() which sometimes gave
1090 phantom positive results. Also, bext to use internal functions if
1091 we ever want to change .netrc format to something else, or access
1094 Sat May 06 08:28:09 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1096 * Restored lost version histories for those moved files by doing a
1097 manual `mv' in the CVSROOT on mhost. CVS badly needs a `cvs mv'
1098 command so that you can move files (without having physical access
1099 to the CVSROOT) without losing versioning. Put MACHINES back at
1100 the top level as it needs to be read before building. Fixed DIST
1101 variable in {.,docs}/Makefile.in to reflect that and to add
1102 missing entry for "INSTALL" file.
1104 Sat May 06 13:13:07 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1106 * Re-cleaned up nmh documentation (by moving things to docs
1107 subdir) and modified Makefile & configure.in to handle the change.
1109 Mon Apr 17 21:28:40 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1111 * Scott Blachowicz pointed out that the configure --help output
1112 for --enable-masquerade was misleading. Clarified.
1114 Mon Apr 17 19:01:00 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1116 * APOP support can be compiled in to inc and msgchk using
1119 * To access an APOP host, specify -apop on the command line
1120 along with any -host or -user option.
1122 Fri Apr 14 23:10:44 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1124 * Upped the version number to 1.0.4+dev until the next nmh release.
1126 * Added a "releasing nmh" section to README.developers, while the
1127 process was fresh in my mind.
1129 Fri Apr 14 18:21:34 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1131 * Added new files README.developers, ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6, and
1132 ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html to DIST target in Makefile.in.
1134 * Released nmh-1.0.4.
1136 Tue Apr 11 21:37:03 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1138 * Applied Brian Campbell <bacam@tardis.ed.ac.uk>'s mhn.defaults.sh
1141 It appears that there shouldn't be quotes around the %s in the
1142 iso-8859-1 charset entry; xterm passes the remaining arguments
1143 to the program, quoting them means that xterm thinks they're
1144 part of the program's name.
1146 This %s isn't the same as the "Insert content subtype" one from
1147 mhshow-show-* -- it doesn't come from MIME headers and is safe not
1150 Sun Apr 09 13:03:59 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1152 * added check in fmt_compile() to handle a single-character
1153 format string. fmt_compile() depends on having an array of
1154 format characters with an empty item at the end. A
1155 single-character format would cause programs using this
1156 function to segfault because the algorithm used to decide on
1157 the length of the array mistakenly created a single-item array
1158 when the format string was one character. This eventually
1159 caused problems when the program attempted to test item+1
1162 Thu Apr 06 21:53:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1164 * Richard Coleman threw out a lot of old MH-specific files in nmh.
1165 Much of the stuff, indeed, is not worth saving, but there are
1166 nuggets that are very worthwhile, and should probably be added
1167 back in. Most important, IMHO, are the MH change logs, as they
1168 can help answer questions like "Why is this code like this?" or
1169 "How long has this been broken?" or "What was this ever used for?"
1171 I've added a new file to the nmh tree called
1172 ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6. It's cobbled together from the
1173 mh-6.8.4/papers/mh*/MHCHANGES files. I've re-ordered the entries
1174 to go from newest at the top to oldest at the bottom to match the
1175 ChangeLog convention. Unfortunately there are no change logs for
1176 versions of MH prior to 3 in the MH tar files available at
1177 <ftp://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/mh>. Also, it appears to me that there
1178 are MH-6.6 changes that aren't documented in the logs.
1180 I've also added ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html. This is
1181 based on mh-6.8.4/papers/changes/mh-changes.ms. The nroff format
1182 and its "catman"-type output are a pain to deal with, but I was
1183 loath to throw away the formatting, so I converted the file to
1184 HTML. The only actual markup in the body are the "<B>" and "<U>"
1185 tags, and "<" and ">" instead of '<' and '>', so it's quite
1186 doable to view the file in plain ASCII mode as well. Note that
1187 some of the changes this file documents as having been made in
1188 MH-6.8.4 may not be present in nmh -- Richard started with 6.8.3
1189 and later put in certain 6.8.4 stuff.
1191 Wed Apr 05 21:09:28 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1193 * Applied Eric Schnoebelen <eric@cirr.com>'s mhshowsbr.c patch
1194 fixing apparent bugs in Dan Winship's new security quoting code:
1196 Since upgrading, I've been getting the following errors
1197 while attempting to process some MIME messages:
1199 (1) Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
1204 (2) line 1/10 (END)Segmentation fault (core dumped)
1206 (2) appears to be due to the testing of an unset pointer in
1207 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux(). (1) appears to be caused by
1208 mis-quoting a filename being handed to the shell in
1209 mhshowsbr.c:show_content_aux().
1211 Resolving the pointer reference issue in
1212 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux() turned up a similar mis-quoting
1213 problem in the routine.
1215 Tue Mar 28 16:17:39 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1217 * Applied Todd.Miller@courtesan.com's patch to dropsbr.c to
1218 prevent core dumping on packf. Here's the note from his message:
1220 Since sizeof(buffer) == sizeof(tmpbuffer) packf will dump
1221 core on a file w/o a From line with a line >= BUFSIZ.
1222 I noticed this because I had a junk file in my mail
1225 Fri Mar 17 11:59:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1227 * wesley.craig@umich.edu did not document his previous KPOP patch,
1228 so I did so, and asked him to check what I wrote. Unfortunately
1229 he didn't notice my misunderstanding of his patch. I wrote that
1230 if you #define POPSERVICE "kpop", inc and msgchk will use KPOP
1231 exclusively, but if you leave it as "pop3", you can use Wesley's
1232 new -kpop switch on a given invocation. Instead, however, -kpop
1233 turned out to be necessary on every invocation, and a KPOP user
1234 complained. Applied Wesley's new patch, which makes things work
1235 like I thought his original patch did. After that, did one more
1236 clarifying pass to the documentation in inc.man and msgchk.man.
1238 Wed Mar 15 18:45:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1240 * When I fixed the long-standing makedir() bugs in January, I had
1241 the code call strtoul(..., 0), which I believed to be safe as all
1242 modes specified as ASCII constants in the nmh code started with a
1243 leading zero (signifying octal), which I did as it would work if
1244 internal constants were ever changed to hex. Unfortunately I was
1245 unaware of the "Folder-Protect:" .mh_profile entry, which
1246 mh-profile.man documents as an octal-only constant, with no
1247 leading zero required. I've changed the strtoul() call to an
1248 atooi() call and removed the misleading leading zeroes on the
1249 ASCII octal constants in the code and man pages. Also changed the
1250 "Folder-Protect:" example in the man page to something more
1251 interesting than a duplication of the default.
1253 * When I added my --enable-masquerade option, you'll note that I
1254 didn't make it --enable-nmh-masquerade. I find the --enable-nmh-*
1255 options too wordy and I'm not sure why Richard went that route.
1256 I've renamed them to just --enable-*, but the old versions will
1257 still work as well (they just aren't advertised).
1259 * Added a line to the "nmh configuration" output saying whether
1262 * Added a new README.developers file. From the file:
1264 This file is intended to provide a few tips for anyone doing
1265 development on nmh. Developers who learn things "the hard
1266 way" about the nmh codebase (as opposed to local info best
1267 encoded in a comment) are encouraged to share their wisdom
1270 Currently the topics are "autoconf files" and "directory structure".
1272 Tue Mar 14 12:41:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1274 * Applied, after some finessing,
1275 Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s --with-smtpservers patch:
1277 Here's a patch that allows you to add
1279 --with-smtpservers=<some.host.name>
1281 to the ./configure command line to set the "servers: " line in
1282 etc/mts.conf. Around here, we use "mailhost" so that all
1283 machines in the current domain just talk to a central machine
1284 and nothing else runs an MTA. Now, I can use
1286 --with-smtpservers=mailhost
1288 instead of having to remember to fix this by hand (and often
1289 forgetting to do so!).
1291 * Inspired by Simon's patch, added an --enable-masquerade option
1292 to configure. It will set the "masquerade:" line of mts.conf.
1293 You may specify a subset of the three types of masquerading, like
1294 --enable-masquerade="draft_from mmailid", or leave off explicit
1295 arguments to enable all three types.
1297 * Alphabetized the --enable and --with options in configure.in and
1298 INSTALL and added documentation of the two new options to the latter.
1300 * Added new dependency for mts.conf: Makefile. If this isn't
1301 done, then when you reconfigure nmh with new values for
1302 --enable-masquerade or --with-smtpservers, you'll fail to get an
1303 updated copy of mts.conf.
1305 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtimep.lex patch:
1307 It seems that some MUA's didn't handle y2k very well - ELM
1308 seems to be one of them, and Ultrix's DXmail (based on MH!).
1309 I've got a few emails this month that look like:
1311 575 Jan 00 Xxxxxx Xxxx 3603 ...
1313 22+ Jan 00 Xxx Xxxxx 1771 ...
1315 The first has "15 Jan 100" as the date and the second has
1316 "19 Jan 00" as the date. The following works around this so
1317 that scan, show, sortm, etc work ok.
1319 I put Simon's patch under the control of a new #define called
1320 FIX_NON_Y2K_COMPLIANT_MUA_DATES. There's some commentary in
1321 acconfig.h about when you might not want to #define it.
1323 * Created new dtimep.c-lexed with Simon's change using dtimep.lex
1324 lexed on Solaris 2.6. Added missing dependency in
1325 zotnet/tws/Makefile.in for dtimep.c: dtimep.c-lexed.
1327 * Added scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD format files.
1329 Mon Mar 13 21:32:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1331 * Applied Sullivan N. Beck <sbeck@cise.ufl.edu>'s mhshow-suffix patch:
1333 With the patch below, you can add lines like:
1335 mhshow-suffix-application/msword: .doc
1336 mhshow-suffix-application/PostScript: .ps
1338 to the mhn.defaults file to append the given suffix to a
1339 scratch file. This allows applications which require a
1340 certain suffix to run properly.
1342 * Removed -force_html from lynx entry in mhn.defaults.sh (I
1343 believe older versions of lynx lack that option) and added
1344 "mhshow-suffix-text/html: .html".
1346 * Modified username_extension masquerading to only use the
1347 extended address on generated [Resent-]From: lines and SMTP
1348 envelope From:. With Neil's original implementation, nmh's global
1349 idea of the username was changed, which would result in inc lying
1350 and saying you had no new mail because it was looking for a
1351 mailbox called, for instance, "dan-nmh" (where username was "dan"
1352 and $USERNAME_EXTENSION was "-nmh").
1354 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtime.c patch:
1356 There's a wrap-around problem that affects the implementation
1357 of Zeller's congruence in dtime.c. This causes the day-of-week
1358 calculations to fail for dates after Feb 29, 2000 (probably up
1359 until some year far in the future).
1361 Mon Mar 06 12:20:20 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1363 * Applied Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s msh.c patch:
1365 I finally tracked down the problem in msh that was causing
1366 errors whenever I tried to examine a 'mmdf' style mailbox.
1368 It turns out that not enough memory was being allocated with
1369 calloc(), causing memory pointers to be overwritten and
1372 Fri Mar 03 16:07:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1374 * Changed the new "plussed_user" option to mts.conf's
1375 "masquerade:" to "username_extension" after getting feedback from
1376 qmail users, who use '-' as a separator rather than '+'. Removed
1377 checking of $USERPLUS variable. Now check $USERNAME_EXTENSION,
1378 which needs to include the appropriate separator for your MTA
1379 ('-', '+', or whatever) as its first character.
1381 Thu Mar 02 23:04:30 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1383 * Added a new "boolean" type to mh.h and TRUE and FALSE constants.
1385 * Added a note to DIFFERENCES stating that it's out-of-date
1386 (Richard was the last one to update it) and that we should
1387 consider only documenting incompatibilities with MH there.
1389 * Implemented (and documented) a third kind of username
1390 masquerading: "plussed user" masquerading. This one was suggested
1391 by Neil Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>. It's based on sendmail's
1392 "plussed user" feature, where mail sent to <user>+<string> will be
1393 delivered to <user>. When it's enabled, it's controlled by the
1394 $USERPLUS environment variable. How is it enabled? Well, that
1397 * Renamed the "mmailid:" setting in mts.conf to "masquerade:", and
1398 changed it so that rather than being a boolean, it can be set to
1399 any combination of the three values "draft_from", "mmailid", and
1400 "plussed_user". Thus it is now possible to enable the three types
1401 of masquerading individually.
1403 * Fixed a bug with "mmailid" masquerading (dating back to MH?)
1404 where if it was turned on, ','s would no longer be considered
1405 GECOS field delimiters.
1407 Wed Mar 01 23:30:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1409 * Changed the GECOS-field '&' translation behavior to be
1410 controlled by the BSD42 #define rather than GCOS_HACK, since it's
1411 apparently always appropriate on OSes where BSD42 is #defined, and
1412 never appropriate on any other OSes. Thanks to Kimmo Suominen for
1413 responding to my "What is this code here for?" comment in mts.c
1414 and explaining the feature.
1416 Mon Feb 28 21:50:29 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1418 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3+dev (ideally this should be
1419 done by whoever makes a release tar file, immediately after doing
1422 * Applied Paul Fox <pgf-spam@foxharp.boston.ma.us>'s scansbr.c
1423 patch, posted to comp.mail.mh, which he says prevents loss of mail
1424 when inc'ing into a full filesystem.
1426 * Changed "echo > stamp-h.in" in Makefile.in to "date > stamp-h.in"
1427 so that stamp-h.in will be different each time configure.in and
1428 related files are changed, making it easier to check it in (which
1429 is necessary to prevent unnecessary autoconf calls).
1431 * My declaration of initgroups() in slocal.c to eliminate the "no
1432 prototype" warning wasn't portable (FreeBSD 3.[23] choked). Now
1433 use AC_EGREP_HEADER to see where initgroups() is declared, if
1436 Sun Feb 20 12:17:15 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1438 * Fix security hole in mhshowsbr.c which allowed untrusted shell
1439 code to be executed.
1441 * Released nmh 1.0.3.
1443 Thu Feb 10 10:54:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1445 * Oops. %-escapes on mhstore lines in mhn.defaults.sh should not
1446 be surrounded by single quotes, as a shell is not spawned when
1447 just saving files, and the filenames will end up with literal
1448 quotes embedded in them.
1450 Fri Feb 04 12:29:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1452 * Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
1453 got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
1454 the -help output. One theory is that they were making reference
1455 to the fact that clearly you know about the -help option since
1456 you're currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea
1457 to overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
1458 supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
1461 The other theory is that because you can say something like
1462 "mhstore -" and get "mhstore: - ambiguous. It matches" followed
1463 by the same list of switches you get with -help, they were saying
1464 you can "sorta" abbreviate "-help" as "-". You don't get the
1465 "Usage:" string, though, so it's not really the same thing.
1467 Thu Feb 03 17:52:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1469 * Applied wesley.craig@umich.edu's KPOP patches. According to him:
1471 The following patch fixes a problem with requesting a
1472 service key for a machine that has multiple 'A' records. It
1473 also makes "-kpop" a command line option, for users who
1474 would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".
1476 Did no testing of the new features, as I don't have access to a
1479 * Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
1481 * Modified INSTALL and config.h.in to reflect the new -kpop feature.
1483 Fri Jan 28 17:39:24 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1485 * All %-escapes in mhn.defaults that actually expand to something
1486 should be surrounded by single quotes. Added quotes to the ones
1487 in mhn.defaults.sh that were missing them.
1489 * Added check for lynx to write mhshow-show-text/html line in
1492 Thu Jan 27 12:22:25 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1494 * makedir() had multiple bugs dating back to MH. An octal
1495 constant was apparently being interpreted as decimal, resulting in
1496 directories with no user read or execute permissions, making
1497 nested directory creation fail. And there wasn't even an
1498 _attempt_ to set desired permissions (e.g. from "Folder-Protect:"
1499 in .mh_profile) on the outer directories of a nested directory.
1501 * A second `make install' would always fail because the check for
1502 whether mh_profile.5 existed was written incorrectly.
1504 Wed Jan 26 02:22:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1506 * Added documentation on both types of masquerading to post's man
1509 Tue Jan 25 22:58:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1511 * Doug's portability fix of my setgid inc autodetection had a
1512 caching bug -- if you re-ran configure, uip/Makefile would be
1513 corrupted, and installation would bomb out on OSes where inc needs
1516 * Implemented a new kind of email address masquerading. Usually,
1517 when a user writes a custom "From:" header in a draft, nmh uses it
1518 rather than generating one. However, the user's true address is
1519 used in the SMTP envelope "From:" and is revealed in the "Sender:"
1520 header. Now, when mmailid is set to non-zero, the envelope
1521 "From:" uses the address specified in the draft "From:" header,
1522 and there is no "Sender:" header. This is useful when sending on
1523 behalf of a remote POP3 account or when remote mail robots
1524 incorrectly use the envelope "From:" in preference to the body
1525 "From:". This processing has only been implemented for post, not
1526 for the undocumented spost (which was already missing some "From:"
1527 processing that post has).
1529 Mon Jan 24 22:26:06 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1531 * Got rid of the rest of the gcc -Wall warnings that I didn't have
1532 time for on 1999-07-15 (and, it would seem, some new ones people
1533 introduced since then). The primary ones were the warnings that
1534 default prototypes were being used for [v]snprintf() and
1535 str[n]casecmp(). As of right now, there are _no_ compilation
1536 warnings except on dtimep.c-lexed (at least under AIX 4.1.5 and
1539 Sun Jan 2 23:42:18 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1541 * Move mhtest from bindir to libdir.
1543 * Move sendfiles from libdir to bindir.
1545 * Updated sendfiles manpage to reflect this change.
1547 * Added documentation for -build and -file switches to repl and
1548 forw manpages (patch from Peter Maydell).
1550 * Fixed interaction between specifying -cc in profile and -group on
1553 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1555 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
1556 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
1557 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
1560 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1562 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
1563 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
1564 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
1565 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
1566 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
1567 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).
1569 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1571 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
1573 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1575 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
1576 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
1577 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
1578 caught again. This works for now.
1580 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
1582 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1584 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
1585 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
1587 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1589 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
1590 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
1592 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
1594 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
1596 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1598 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
1599 changes. Both need more cleanup.
1601 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1603 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
1604 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
1605 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
1606 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
1607 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
1610 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1612 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
1613 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
1614 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
1616 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
1617 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
1620 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1622 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
1623 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
1624 to a directory on another device with more free space.
1626 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1628 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
1629 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
1631 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1633 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
1636 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
1637 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
1639 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
1640 macros, regardless of platform.
1642 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
1643 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1645 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
1646 with x-conversions=gzip.
1648 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1650 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
1653 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
1654 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
1655 implicit definition of ioctl().
1657 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
1658 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
1659 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
1660 want to mess with them.
1662 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1664 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
1665 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
1667 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
1668 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
1670 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
1671 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
1672 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
1674 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
1675 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
1676 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
1678 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
1679 function initgroups.
1681 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
1684 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
1685 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
1688 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
1689 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
1692 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
1693 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
1697 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1699 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
1700 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
1701 preventing compilation on at least linux.
1703 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
1704 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
1706 Thu Sep 09 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1708 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
1710 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
1711 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
1712 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
1713 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
1715 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
1716 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
1718 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1720 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
1722 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1724 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
1725 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
1727 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1729 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
1730 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
1732 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
1733 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
1734 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
1735 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
1737 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
1738 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
1740 Sat Jun 09 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1742 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
1743 substitute it for mktemp if available.
1745 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1747 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
1748 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
1751 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
1753 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
1755 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
1757 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
1758 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
1760 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
1761 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
1762 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
1764 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
1765 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
1766 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
1768 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
1769 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
1770 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1772 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
1773 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
1776 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
1777 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1779 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
1780 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1782 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
1783 <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1785 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
1786 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
1787 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1789 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
1790 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1792 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
1793 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
1794 <elleron@servtech.com>.
1796 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
1797 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
1800 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
1801 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
1803 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
1804 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
1805 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
1806 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
1808 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
1809 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
1811 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1815 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
1816 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
1817 would not be changed.
1819 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
1820 one from the Apache web server.
1822 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
1823 (this should have been done a long time ago).
1825 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
1826 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
1827 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
1829 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
1831 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
1833 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
1834 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
1837 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
1838 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
1839 removes a bad race condition.
1841 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
1844 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
1845 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
1846 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
1848 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
1849 sequence information.
1851 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
1852 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
1854 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
1857 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
1860 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
1862 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
1863 interpret 034 as octal.
1865 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
1867 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
1868 mhstore, and mhbuild.
1870 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
1871 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
1873 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
1874 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
1876 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
1877 in the c_cefile structure when building.
1879 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
1880 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
1882 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
1883 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
1884 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
1886 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
1887 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
1888 and mhshow. Updated man pages
1890 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
1892 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
1894 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
1895 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
1898 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
1900 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
1901 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
1903 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
1904 header field information.
1906 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
1907 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
1909 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
1910 values when parsing a content.
1912 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
1913 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
1915 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
1916 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
1918 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
1919 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1921 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
1922 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
1924 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
1926 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
1928 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
1930 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
1932 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
1933 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
1936 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
1937 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
1939 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
1940 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
1941 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
1942 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
1943 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
1944 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
1947 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1949 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
1950 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
1951 buffer length checks for this parameter.
1953 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
1954 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
1956 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1958 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
1959 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
1960 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
1961 of the limits on the length of command lines.
1963 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
1964 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
1967 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
1968 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
1969 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
1970 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
1973 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1975 * Released nmh-0.27.
1977 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
1978 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
1980 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
1981 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
1982 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
1983 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
1986 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
1987 mhbuild returns an error.
1989 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
1990 rename the draft file.
1992 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
1993 use a global variable.
1995 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
1996 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
1998 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
1999 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
2001 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
2002 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
2003 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
2005 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
2006 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
2008 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
2009 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
2012 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
2013 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
2016 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
2017 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
2019 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
2020 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
2021 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
2023 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
2024 to new function output_content_folder.
2026 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
2027 new function output_content_file.
2029 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
2030 to new function parse_format_string.
2032 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
2033 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
2034 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
2035 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
2037 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
2038 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
2039 message/external file from ftp.
2041 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
2042 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
2043 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
2045 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
2046 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
2049 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
2052 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
2053 new file mhstoresbr.c
2055 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
2058 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
2059 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
2061 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
2062 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
2064 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
2065 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
2066 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
2068 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
2070 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
2072 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
2073 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
2076 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
2077 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
2079 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
2082 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
2084 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2086 * Released nmh-0.26.
2088 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
2089 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
2090 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
2091 is still the same (dashstuffing).
2093 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
2094 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
2095 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
2096 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
2097 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
2099 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
2100 But it is not on by default.
2102 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
2103 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
2105 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
2107 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
2109 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
2111 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
2113 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
2114 number of the "cur" message when packing.
2116 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2118 * Released nmh-0.25.
2120 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
2121 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
2122 uses the original name of the library.
2124 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
2125 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
2128 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
2129 list_content and list_debug.
2131 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
2133 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
2134 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.
2136 1998-02-27 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2138 * Released nmh-0.24.
2140 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
2142 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
2143 are given, that order doesn't matter.
2145 * Fix bug in seq_list.c when realloc'ing for
2146 large sequence line.
2148 1998-02-23 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2150 * Released nmh-0.23.
2152 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
2154 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
2155 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan
2156 content, decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary
2157 string). I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
2159 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
2160 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
2163 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
2165 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
2167 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
2169 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
2170 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
2172 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
2173 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.
2175 * Add note to MACHINES file that on Linux, configure
2176 doesn't find the functions sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
2178 * Fix configuration for machines that don't have (or find)
2179 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
2181 1998-02-11 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2183 * Released nmh-0.22.
2185 * Add a configure check for sigsetjmp. Add some conditional
2186 #define's in h/signals.h in case it's not found.
2188 * Added additional notes about -auto switch in mhn man page.
2190 * Added note about MM_CHARSET environment variable to
2191 mh-profile(5) man page.
2193 * Fix signal problem in mhn.c (change setjmp/longjmp to
2194 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp).
2196 1998-02-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2198 * Released nmh-0.22-pre1.
2200 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
2201 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
2203 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
2205 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
2206 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
2207 entry point for parsing MIME files.
2209 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
2210 source message on the standard input.
2212 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
2214 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
2215 rather than -rfc934mode.
2217 * Fix mhbuild, so that Content-Description and RFC-822 comments
2218 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
2221 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
2222 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).
2224 * Restore HP specific code to zotnet/tws/lexstring.c. Apparently
2227 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2229 * Released nmh-0.21.
2231 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
2232 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.
2234 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what transfer
2237 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what character set
2238 to use for text contents.
2240 * Removed old hpux specific code from zotnet/tws/lexstring.c
2242 1998-02-02 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2244 * Released nmh-0.21-pre2.
2246 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
2248 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
2249 header fields as per RFC-2047.
2251 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
2252 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
2253 spaces between encoded word are.
2255 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
2257 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
2258 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
2260 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
2261 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
2262 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
2264 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
2266 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
2267 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
2269 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.
2271 * Added support for %(decode) to fmtdump.c.
2273 * check_charset() now accepts US-ASCII as a subset of any
2274 ISO-8859-X character set.
2276 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
2279 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
2280 permissions, not write permissions.
2282 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
2283 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
2285 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
2288 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2290 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
2292 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
2293 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
2295 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
2296 message contains valid character set.
2298 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
2299 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
2301 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
2302 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
2304 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
2305 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
2306 between an encoded word and normal text.
2308 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
2309 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
2311 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
2312 as a RFC-2047 header field.
2314 * The command install-mh now recognizes the switches -version
2317 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
2318 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
2321 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
2322 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
2324 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
2325 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
2327 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
2329 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2331 * Released nmh-0.20.
2333 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
2335 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.
2337 * Changed the default format file for mhl (mhl.format) to
2338 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
2339 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
2341 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
2342 and the To: line was missing.
2344 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
2346 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2348 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
2350 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
2351 watch the POP transaction.
2353 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
2354 first, and use it if available.
2356 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
2357 first, and use it if available.
2359 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2361 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
2363 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
2364 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
2365 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
2368 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
2369 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
2370 returns the state FLDPLUS.
2372 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
2373 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
2376 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
2378 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
2379 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
2381 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
2383 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
2384 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
2386 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
2387 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
2388 message to which you are replying.
2390 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
2391 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
2392 making group replies.
2394 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
2396 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2398 * Released nmh-0.19.
2400 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
2401 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
2403 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
2404 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
2405 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
2406 to the end of the man page.
2408 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
2409 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
2410 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
2411 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
2412 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
2413 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
2415 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
2418 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
2419 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
2420 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
2422 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
2423 the next available number above the message number you wish
2426 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
2427 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
2429 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
2430 file sbr/seq_print.c
2432 * flist will now update the current folder.
2434 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
2435 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
2436 but now undocumented.
2438 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
2441 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
2442 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
2444 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
2446 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
2447 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
2449 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2451 * Released nmh-0.18.
2453 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
2454 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
2455 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
2457 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
2458 retains the public/private status of sequences.
2460 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
2461 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
2462 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
2463 previous public/private status.
2465 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
2468 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
2471 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
2472 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
2473 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
2475 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
2476 take option to determine whether it should get current
2477 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
2478 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
2480 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
2482 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
2483 wait for stopped processes.
2485 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
2486 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
2488 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2490 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
2492 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
2493 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
2495 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
2496 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
2498 * Change the way that memory for message status is
2499 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
2500 the folder/message structure. This required changing
2501 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
2503 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
2506 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
2509 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
2511 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
2512 the debugging output.
2514 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
2515 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
2517 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2519 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
2521 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
2522 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
2524 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
2526 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
2527 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
2528 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
2529 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
2530 in the given sequence.
2532 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
2533 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
2534 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
2535 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
2536 subdirectories of a given directory.
2538 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
2539 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
2540 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
2542 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
2543 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
2545 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
2547 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
2550 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
2551 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
2552 fields are now calculated at runtime.
2554 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
2555 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
2556 are calculated at runtime.
2558 Sun Nov 30 19:14:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2560 * Released nmh-0.18-pre2.
2562 * Add paragraph to man page for install-mh and to INSTALL file
2563 about checking for global mh.profile.
2565 * Renamed m_find() to context_find().
2566 Renamed m_replace() to context_replace().
2567 Renamed m_delete() to context_del().
2568 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
2569 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
2570 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
2572 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
2573 adding message to folder itself.
2575 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
2576 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
2577 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
2580 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
2581 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
2584 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
2585 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
2586 is the same as the direct smtp code).
2588 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
2589 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
2591 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
2592 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
2593 code to use it yet).
2595 Thu Nov 13 18:42:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2597 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.
2599 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never
2600 called with a value larger than 30 mintues.
2602 * Fixed race condition in rmm and refile, so that
2603 context is updated before external rmmproc is called.
2605 * Removed all the OVERHEAD code.
2607 * Move code to add message to folder from refile.c
2610 Fri Jul 25 19:39:29 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2612 * Did some rearranging of the internals of inc.c.
2614 * Make -inplace the default for anno, forw, dist, and repl.
2616 * Changed --enable-smtp to --with-mts={smtp,sendmail}
2618 * Created new directory mts/sendmail for direct sendmail
2619 interface (although it currently still uses SMTP).
2621 * Removed all the TMA (trusted mail agent) code
2623 * Removed all the TTYD (terminal access daemon) code
2625 * Removed all the MF (uucp filtering) code.
2627 * Removed all the code for BERK.
2629 * Removed all the code for stand-alone delivery (MHMTS).
2631 * Split the file mts/sendmail/smail.c into sendmail.c and
2632 smtp.c. Changed the name of the directory to mts/smtp.
2634 * Changed autoconf to use @sysconfdir@ for location of
2635 configuration files.
2637 * Changed #define in mhn.c from FTP to BUILTIN_FTP.
2639 Mon Jul 21 03:22:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2641 * Released nmh-0.17.
2643 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
2645 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
2646 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
2648 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
2651 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
2652 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
2654 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
2655 number of refiled message.
2657 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
2659 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
2660 for return value of wait().
2662 * Change configure to also check /bin for "more".
2664 Sat Jul 12 00:02:23 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2666 * Released nmh-0.16.
2668 Mon Jun 23 20:13:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2670 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
2672 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
2673 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
2674 deal with binary messages, yet).
2676 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
2678 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
2680 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
2681 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
2682 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
2683 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
2684 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
2685 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
2687 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
2688 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
2690 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
2691 From MH-6.8.4 patch.
2693 * Fix double free of ctinfo in user_content when using
2694 #forw with single message. From John MacMillan (and
2697 * Changed -mhnproc switch for show, to -showmimeproc.
2699 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".
2701 * Added "mime" option to "whatnow", which calls the program
2702 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
2705 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
2708 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
2710 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
2711 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
2712 which used unsigned chars by default.
2714 Sat Jun 21 01:21:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2716 * Released nmh-0.15.
2718 * Added new form "scan.unseen" to distribution. It marks messages

2723 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
2725 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
2728 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
2729 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
2730 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
2732 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
2733 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
2735 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
2737 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
2738 they conflict with defines on AIX.
2740 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
2741 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
2742 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
2743 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
2745 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
2746 and put in own subroutine.
2748 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
2749 and put in own subroutine.
2751 * Moved code to remove messages from folder into own
2752 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and
2753 refile.c to use new routine.
2755 Fri May 16 06:09:31 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2757 * Renamed m_seqok to seq_nameok.
2759 * Changed m_setunseen, msh, mshcmds, flist, and scan to use
2762 * Changed m_seqflag to return the number of a sequence rather
2763 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
2764 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
2766 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
2769 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before
2770 adding message to sequence.
2772 * Renamed function m_setvis to m_setunseen, and renamed
2773 corresponding file in sbr.
2775 * Renamed function m_setseq to m_setprev, and renamed corresponding
2778 * Changed mark.c and pick.c to use m_seqaddsel and m_seqdelsel.
2780 * Added new function m_seqdelsel to m_seqdel.c, which deletes
2781 all selected messages from a sequence.
2783 * Added new function m_seqaddsel to m_seqadd.c, which adds all
2784 selected messages to a sequence.
2786 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,
2789 Thu May 15 00:53:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2791 * Renamed function pack_folder to m_packfolder, and moved it
2792 from uip/folder.c into its own file sbr/m_packfolder.c
2794 Wed May 14 23:38:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2796 * Changed function m_gmsg to m_readfolder. Renamed file
2797 sbr/m_gmsg.c to sbr/m_readfolder.c.

2806 * Released nmh-0.14.
2808 * Comment out configure test and code for tgetent to allocate its
2809 own termcap buffer when passed a NULL argument.
2811 Sat Apr 26 03:46:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2813 * Added new options `-checkmime', `-nocheckmime', and `-mhnproc'
2814 to show. Restructured code to handle options to various
2815 `procs' better. Deprecated `-noshowproc' option and NOMHNPROC
2816 environment variable.
2818 * Added new man page `mh-draft' which documents the
2819 draft folder facility in nmh.

2833 * Released nmh-0.13.
2835 * Changed mhpath so it doesn't abort if a message sequence
2836 such as "mhpath all" expands to more than 1000 messages.
2837 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
2838 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
2841 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
2842 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
2844 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2846 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if
2847 necessary. So `folders' can now handle more than 300 folders.
2849 Tue Apr 22 14:01:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2851 * Change configure to use a compile check to see if the tm struct

2880 will suppress the display of the message header.
2882 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
2884 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c

2889 * Add configure test for lorder and tsort commands.
2891 * Commented out the padding in the `msgs` struct in h/mh.h

2896 * Add note to man page for mhmail that zero length messages are
2897 not sent. Need to use -body "" to send empty messages.
2899 * zotnet/mts/mts.c : compare character with '\0', not NULL.
2901 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
2903 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
2904 folder/message structure when done with folder.
2906 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is
2907 defined even if message is missing "From " line.
2909 Mon Mar 31 03:37:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2911 * Released nmh-0.10.

2921 The "From " line is now removed from all messages.
2923 * inc now saves the date from the "From " envelope in the
2924 Delivery-Date header for all messages.
2926 * sbr/m_getfld.c: Clean up processing of Return-Path and

2931 * client.c: cast iaddr to int before comparing return value
2932 of inet_addr with NOTOK.
2934 Tue Mar 11 04:38:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2936 * Grep test for signal names was failing on some OS'es because
2937 of missing tabs in regex.

2966 * rcvtty.c : Changed to use #define UTMP_FILE (if exists) rather
2967 than hard coded "/etc/utmp".
2969 * Released nmh-0.08.
2971 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
2972 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of
2973 locking database itself.
2975 Thu Feb 27 05:28:09 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2977 * Added slocal action `mmdf' to deliver to a file in mmdf format.
2979 * Changed the slocal actions `file' and `>' to always deliver in
2980 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
2983 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
2984 rather than mmdf format.
2986 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
2987 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
2988 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
2989 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
2991 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
2993 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2995 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
2998 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2999 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
3000 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
3002 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
3003 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
3004 rcvpack so you can choose the preferred format.
3006 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3008 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
3009 can still easily change this in config.h).
3011 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
3012 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
3013 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
3015 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3017 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather

3031 * Add check to configure, so that if ruserpass, or _ruserpass
3032 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
3034 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
3035 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
3038 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
3039 built-in FTP client in mhn.

3052 * Released nmh-0.06.
3054 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
3055 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
3057 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
3058 many such machines around anymore.
3060 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
3061 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
3063 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
3064 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
3066 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3068 * Check lex generated file in zotnet/tws and use
3069 pre-generated version if necessary.
3071 * Released nmh-0.05.
3073 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
3074 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
3075 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
3076 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
3078 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
3079 be linked in one pass.
3081 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3083 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
3084 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
3086 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3088 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
3090 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3092 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
3093 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
3094 become the current folder.
3096 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3098 * Released nmh-0.04.
3100 * Define ospeed and PC in termsbr.c is OS doesn't have
3103 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3105 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
3106 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
3107 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
3109 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3111 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
3112 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
3114 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3116 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
3117 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
3120 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
3121 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
3123 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3125 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
3126 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
3127 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
3128 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
3129 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
3130 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
3132 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3134 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
3135 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
3137 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
3138 a file (currently need to specify full path).
3140 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3142 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
3143 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
3145 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3147 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
3148 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
3149 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
3151 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3153 * Released nmh-0.03.
3155 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
3156 .mh_sequence file existed.
3158 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
3159 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
3161 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
3162 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
3165 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3167 * Changed flist option -unseen to -[no]all. Cleaned up
3170 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3172 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
3173 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
3174 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
3176 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3178 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
3179 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
3180 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
3182 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3184 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL
3185 and allocate its own buffer. Borrowed from zsh.
3187 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
3189 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3191 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
3192 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
3193 directory from where the source code is located.
3195 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3197 * Released nmh-0.02.
3199 Wed Jan 1 17:41:52 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

3204 Tue Dec 31 03:07:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3206 * Changed code to use strerror, rather than using sys_errlist
3207 and sys_nerr directly.

3211 * -compat switch from install-mh removed.
3213 * Changed the default POP port from "pop" to "pop3".
3215 Sat Dec 28 13:25:05 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3217 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
3218 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
3219 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
3220 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
3221 rather than in script.
3223 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3225 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
3227 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with
3228 macro defined on Solaris.
3230 Thu Dec 26 02:50:15 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3232 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
3233 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
3235 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
3236 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
3237 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
3238 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
3241 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3243 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
3244 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.
3246 * Fixed configure test so that termcap variable ospeed is
3249 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3251 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
3253 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included
3254 in mhn.c. Changed md5 to use memset and memcpy.
3256 Fri Dec 20 02:29:37 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3258 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
3259 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
3261 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3263 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
3264 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
3265 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
3266 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
3267 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
3268 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
3270 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3272 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
3274 * Released nmh-0.01.
3276 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
3277 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
3278 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
3281 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3283 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
3286 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3288 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
3289 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
3291 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3293 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
3294 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
3295 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
3296 script to find_program.
3298 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3300 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
3301 speed up -recurse option.
3303 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
3304 yet, but it compiles :-)
3306 * Changed default location for install to
3307 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
3308 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
3309 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
3312 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
3313 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
3314 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
