1 Tue May 09 20:38:04 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
3 * Alphabetized Shantonu's $pop_kinds output on configure's "pop is
4 enabled" line. If POP3 is the only kind of POP enabled, say so,
5 rather than just saying "yes" (which is ambiguous).
7 * Fixed four warnings in Shantonu's new getpass.c. Needed to
8 #include <stdlib.h> for calloc(), <unistd.h> for ttyname(), and
9 "h/mh.h" for adios(). Also changed ch from char to int to get rid
10 of "comparison is always 1 due to limited range of data type" on EOF.
12 * Added steps to README.developers saying to change the version
13 number to X.Y.Z+dev. Did a little rearranging and changed the FTP
14 dir from /home/ftp to /var/ftp to reflect Doug's new machine.
16 * Changed configure.in to use gcc -Wall even without
17 --enable-debug, to prevent developers compiling optimized from
18 introducing warnings, and to give end-users a warm, fuzzy feeling
19 as they (hopefully) see no warnings come out (except perhaps on
20 the lex output file) even with -Wall.
22 * Renamed getpass() to nmh_getpass() since the prototype for
23 getpass() varies from OS to OS, and we want to _always_ use our
24 version of the function. Fixed all the callers to use
25 nmh_getpass() and added it to prototypes.h. Semi-arbitrarily
26 upped MAX_PASSWORD_LEN from 128 to 256. buf was being calloc()'d
27 and the memory leaked -- should have just been declared as static
28 char array. Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the
29 copyright message, as this version has been changed significantly
32 * Added "nmh-local functions to use in preference to OS versions"
33 section to README.developers (currently just says to use
34 nmh_getpass() instead of system getpass()).
36 * Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the copyright message
39 * Added mts.conf.5 page per Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s
42 This happens on solaris:
45 windex entry incorrect: mts.conf(5) not found.
46 No manual entry for mts.conf.
50 % echo ".so man5/mh-tailor.5" > mts.conf.5
52 done in the man5 directory. We need to add 'mts.conf.5' as a
53 reference sourcing mh-tailor.5.
55 Mon May 08 23:51:55 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
57 * Doug informed me that the way I had restored the "lost" version
58 histories was wrong, because `cvs checkout's of old versions of
59 nmh wouldn't work properly. It occurs to me that this could be
60 fixed by simply deleting those tags in the new-location *,v files,
61 but oh well. I'm putting everything back to the way Doug
62 originally had it. To get the old version history for a file that
63 used to be in the top directory, you'll need to "blindly" do a
64 `cvs log' there (even though you won't have a local copy of the
65 file in that directory). `cvs diff' will no longer be able to
66 diff pre-move versions vs. post-move versions -- you'll have to do
67 a lot of manual gyrations with `cvs checkout' and then use `diff'.
69 * I had alphabetized the --configure options in the --help output
70 awhile back, but Shantonu added --enable-apop just under
71 --enable-pop. Put it in alphabetical order and clarified what
72 --enable-apop does vs. --enable-pop and --with-krb4. Also changed
73 --with-mts help line from "mail transport agent" to "mail
74 transport agent/service" so the 's' in "mts" doesn't seem to come
77 * Added two steps to "releasing nmh" in README.developers. After
78 making the tarball, it's a good idea to diff the tree vs. the CVS
79 tree to make sure no files got left out, and then to chown the
80 files so that they're owned by root, preventing a Trojaning attack
81 by a malicious remote user with a UID matching yours.
83 * Changed DIFFERENCES to say that RPOP is not currently supported
84 rather than implying it by saying that APOP, KPOP, and POP[3] are.
86 Sun May 07 18:16:43 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
88 * Imported NetBSD version of getpass() and made extensive
89 revisions for compatibility with programs that pipe the password
90 to stdin, such as exmh.
92 * Removed tests for system ruserpass() which sometimes gave
93 phantom positive results. Also, bext to use internal functions if
94 we ever want to change .netrc format to something else, or access
97 Sat May 06 08:28:09 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
99 * Restored lost version histories for those moved files by doing a
100 manual `mv' in the CVSROOT on mhost. CVS badly needs a `cvs mv'
101 command so that you can move files (without having physical access
102 to the CVSROOT) without losing versioning. Put MACHINES back at
103 the top level as it needs to be read before building. Fixed DIST
104 variable in {.,docs}/Makefile.in to reflect that and to add
105 missing entry for "INSTALL" file.
107 Sat May 06 13:13:07 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
109 * Re-cleaned up nmh documentation (by moving things to docs
110 subdir) and modified Makefile & configure.in to handle the change.
112 Mon Apr 17 21:28:40 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
114 * Scott Blachowicz pointed out that the configure --help output
115 for --enable-masquerade was misleading. Clarified.
117 Mon Apr 17 19:01:00 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
119 * APOP support can be compiled in to inc and msgchk using
122 * To access an APOP host, specify -apop on the command line
123 along with any -host or -user option.
125 Fri Apr 14 23:10:44 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
127 * Upped the version number to 1.0.4+dev until the next nmh release.
129 * Added a "releasing nmh" section to README.developers, while the
130 process was fresh in my mind.
132 Fri Apr 14 18:21:34 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
134 * Added new files README.developers, ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6, and
135 ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html to DIST target in Makefile.in.
137 * Released nmh-1.0.4.
139 Tue Apr 11 21:37:03 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
141 * Applied Brian Campbell <bacam@tardis.ed.ac.uk>'s mhn.defaults.sh
144 It appears that there shouldn't be quotes around the %s in the
145 iso-8859-1 charset entry; xterm passes the remaining arguments
146 to the program, quoting them means that xterm thinks they're
147 part of the program's name.
149 This %s isn't the same as the "Insert content subtype" one from
150 mhshow-show-* -- it doesn't come from MIME headers and is safe not
153 Sun Apr 09 13:03:59 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
155 * added check in fmt_compile() to handle a single-character
156 format string. fmt_compile() depends on having an array of
157 format characters with an empty item at the end. A
158 single-character format would cause programs using this
159 function to segfault because the algorithm used to decide on
160 the length of the array mistakenly created a single-item array
161 when the format string was one character. This eventually
162 caused problems when the program attempted to test item+1
165 Thu Apr 06 21:53:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
167 * Richard Coleman threw out a lot of old MH-specific files in nmh.
168 Much of the stuff, indeed, is not worth saving, but there are
169 nuggets that are very worthwhile, and should probably be added
170 back in. Most important, IMHO, are the MH change logs, as they
171 can help answer questions like "Why is this code like this?" or
172 "How long has this been broken?" or "What was this ever used for?"
174 I've added a new file to the nmh tree called
175 ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6. It's cobbled together from the
176 mh-6.8.4/papers/mh*/MHCHANGES files. I've re-ordered the entries
177 to go from newest at the top to oldest at the bottom to match the
178 ChangeLog convention. Unfortunately there are no change logs for
179 versions of MH prior to 3 in the MH tar files available at
180 <ftp://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/mh>. Also, it appears to me that there
181 are MH-6.6 changes that aren't documented in the logs.
183 I've also added ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html. This is
184 based on mh-6.8.4/papers/changes/mh-changes.ms. The nroff format
185 and its "catman"-type output are a pain to deal with, but I was
186 loath to throw away the formatting, so I converted the file to
187 HTML. The only actual markup in the body are the "<B>" and "<U>"
188 tags, and "<" and ">" instead of '<' and '>', so it's quite
189 doable to view the file in plain ASCII mode as well. Note that
190 some of the changes this file documents as having been made in
191 MH-6.8.4 may not be present in nmh -- Richard started with 6.8.3
192 and later put in certain 6.8.4 stuff.
194 Wed Apr 05 21:09:28 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
196 * Applied Eric Schnoebelen <eric@cirr.com>'s mhshowsbr.c patch
197 fixing apparent bugs in Dan Winship's new security quoting code:
199 Since upgrading, I've been getting the following errors
200 while attempting to process some MIME messages:
202 (1) Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
207 (2) line 1/10 (END)Segmentation fault (core dumped)
209 (2) appears to be due to the testing of an unset pointer in
210 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux(). (1) appears to be caused by
211 mis-quoting a filename being handed to the shell in
212 mhshowsbr.c:show_content_aux().
214 Resolving the pointer reference issue in
215 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux() turned up a similar mis-quoting
216 problem in the routine.
218 Tue Mar 28 16:17:39 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
220 * Applied Todd.Miller@courtesan.com's patch to dropsbr.c to
221 prevent core dumping on packf. Here's the note from his message:
223 Since sizeof(buffer) == sizeof(tmpbuffer) packf will dump
224 core on a file w/o a From line with a line >= BUFSIZ.
225 I noticed this because I had a junk file in my mail
228 Fri Mar 17 11:59:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
230 * wesley.craig@umich.edu did not document his previous KPOP patch,
231 so I did so, and asked him to check what I wrote. Unfortunately
232 he didn't notice my misunderstanding of his patch. I wrote that
233 if you #define POPSERVICE "kpop", inc and msgchk will use KPOP
234 exclusively, but if you leave it as "pop3", you can use Wesley's
235 new -kpop switch on a given invocation. Instead, however, -kpop
236 turned out to be necessary on every invocation, and a KPOP user
237 complained. Applied Wesley's new patch, which makes things work
238 like I thought his original patch did. After that, did one more
239 clarifying pass to the documentation in inc.man and msgchk.man.
241 Wed Mar 15 18:45:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
243 * When I fixed the long-standing makedir() bugs in January, I had
244 the code call strtoul(..., 0), which I believed to be safe as all
245 modes specified as ASCII constants in the nmh code started with a
246 leading zero (signifying octal), which I did as it would work if
247 internal constants were ever changed to hex. Unfortunately I was
248 unaware of the "Folder-Protect:" .mh_profile entry, which
249 mh-profile.man documents as an octal-only constant, with no
250 leading zero required. I've changed the strtoul() call to an
251 atooi() call and removed the misleading leading zeroes on the
252 ASCII octal constants in the code and man pages. Also changed the
253 "Folder-Protect:" example in the man page to something more
254 interesting than a duplication of the default.
256 * When I added my --enable-masquerade option, you'll note that I
257 didn't make it --enable-nmh-masquerade. I find the --enable-nmh-*
258 options too wordy and I'm not sure why Richard went that route.
259 I've renamed them to just --enable-*, but the old versions will
260 still work as well (they just aren't advertised).
262 * Added a line to the "nmh configuration" output saying whether
265 * Added a new README.developers file. From the file:
267 This file is intended to provide a few tips for anyone doing
268 development on nmh. Developers who learn things "the hard
269 way" about the nmh codebase (as opposed to local info best
270 encoded in a comment) are encouraged to share their wisdom
273 Currently the topics are "autoconf files" and "directory structure".
275 Tue Mar 14 12:41:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
277 * Applied, after some finessing,
278 Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s --with-smtpservers patch:
280 Here's a patch that allows you to add
282 --with-smtpservers=<some.host.name>
284 to the ./configure command line to set the "servers: " line in
285 etc/mts.conf. Around here, we use "mailhost" so that all
286 machines in the current domain just talk to a central machine
287 and nothing else runs an MTA. Now, I can use
289 --with-smtpservers=mailhost
291 instead of having to remember to fix this by hand (and often
292 forgetting to do so!).
294 * Inspired by Simon's patch, added an --enable-masquerade option
295 to configure. It will set the "masquerade:" line of mts.conf.
296 You may specify a subset of the three types of masquerading, like
297 --enable-masquerade="draft_from mmailid", or leave off explicit
298 arguments to enable all three types.
300 * Alphabetized the --enable and --with options in configure.in and
301 INSTALL and added documentation of the two new options to the latter.
303 * Added new dependency for mts.conf: Makefile. If this isn't
304 done, then when you reconfigure nmh with new values for
305 --enable-masquerade or --with-smtpservers, you'll fail to get an
306 updated copy of mts.conf.
308 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtimep.lex patch:
310 It seems that some MUA's didn't handle y2k very well - ELM
311 seems to be one of them, and Ultrix's DXmail (based on MH!).
312 I've got a few emails this month that look like:
314 575 Jan 00 Xxxxxx Xxxx 3603 ...
316 22+ Jan 00 Xxx Xxxxx 1771 ...
318 The first has "15 Jan 100" as the date and the second has
319 "19 Jan 00" as the date. The following works around this so
320 that scan, show, sortm, etc work ok.
322 I put Simon's patch under the control of a new #define called
323 FIX_NON_Y2K_COMPLIANT_MUA_DATES. There's some commentary in
324 acconfig.h about when you might not want to #define it.
326 * Created new dtimep.c-lexed with Simon's change using dtimep.lex
327 lexed on Solaris 2.6. Added missing dependency in
328 zotnet/tws/Makefile.in for dtimep.c: dtimep.c-lexed.
330 * Added scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD format files.
332 Mon Mar 13 21:32:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
334 * Applied Sullivan N. Beck <sbeck@cise.ufl.edu>'s mhshow-suffix patch:
336 With the patch below, you can add lines like:
338 mhshow-suffix-application/msword: .doc
339 mhshow-suffix-application/PostScript: .ps
341 to the mhn.defaults file to append the given suffix to a
342 scratch file. This allows applications which require a
343 certain suffix to run properly.
345 * Removed -force_html from lynx entry in mhn.defaults.sh (I
346 believe older versions of lynx lack that option) and added
347 "mhshow-suffix-text/html: .html".
349 * Modified username_extension masquerading to only use the
350 extended address on generated [Resent-]From: lines and SMTP
351 envelope From:. With Neil's original implementation, nmh's global
352 idea of the username was changed, which would result in inc lying
353 and saying you had no new mail because it was looking for a
354 mailbox called, for instance, "dan-nmh" (where username was "dan"
355 and $USERNAME_EXTENSION was "-nmh").
357 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtime.c patch:
359 There's a wrap-around problem that affects the implementation
360 of Zeller's congruence in dtime.c. This causes the day-of-week
361 calculations to fail for dates after Feb 29, 2000 (probably up
362 until some year far in the future).
364 Mon Mar 06 12:20:20 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
366 * Applied Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s msh.c patch:
368 I finally tracked down the problem in msh that was causing
369 errors whenever I tried to examine a 'mmdf' style mailbox.
371 It turns out that not enough memory was being allocated with
372 calloc(), causing memory pointers to be overwritten and
375 Fri Mar 03 16:07:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
377 * Changed the new "plussed_user" option to mts.conf's
378 "masquerade:" to "username_extension" after getting feedback from
379 qmail users, who use '-' as a separator rather than '+'. Removed
380 checking of $USERPLUS variable. Now check $USERNAME_EXTENSION,
381 which needs to include the appropriate separator for your MTA
382 ('-', '+', or whatever) as its first character.
384 Thu Mar 02 23:04:30 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
386 * Added a new "boolean" type to mh.h and TRUE and FALSE constants.
388 * Added a note to DIFFERENCES stating that it's out-of-date
389 (Richard was the last one to update it) and that we should
390 consider only documenting incompatibilities with MH there.
392 * Implemented (and documented) a third kind of username
393 masquerading: "plussed user" masquerading. This one was suggested
394 by Neil Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>. It's based on sendmail's
395 "plussed user" feature, where mail sent to <user>+<string> will be
396 delivered to <user>. When it's enabled, it's controlled by the
397 $USERPLUS environment variable. How is it enabled? Well, that
400 * Renamed the "mmailid:" setting in mts.conf to "masquerade:", and
401 changed it so that rather than being a boolean, it can be set to
402 any combination of the three values "draft_from", "mmailid", and
403 "plussed_user". Thus it is now possible to enable the three types
404 of masquerading individually.
406 * Fixed a bug with "mmailid" masquerading (dating back to MH?)
407 where if it was turned on, ','s would no longer be considered
408 GECOS field delimiters.
410 Wed Mar 01 23:30:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
412 * Changed the GECOS-field '&' translation behavior to be
413 controlled by the BSD42 #define rather than GCOS_HACK, since it's
414 apparently always appropriate on OSes where BSD42 is #defined, and
415 never appropriate on any other OSes. Thanks to Kimmo Suominen for
416 responding to my "What is this code here for?" comment in mts.c
417 and explaining the feature.
419 Mon Feb 28 21:50:29 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
421 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3+dev (ideally this should be
422 done by whoever makes a release tar file, immediately after doing
425 * Applied Paul Fox <pgf-spam@foxharp.boston.ma.us>'s scansbr.c
426 patch, posted to comp.mail.mh, which he says prevents loss of mail
427 when inc'ing into a full filesystem.
429 * Changed "echo > stamp-h.in" in Makefile.in to "date > stamp-h.in"
430 so that stamp-h.in will be different each time configure.in and
431 related files are changed, making it easier to check it in (which
432 is necessary to prevent unnecessary autoconf calls).
434 * My declaration of initgroups() in slocal.c to eliminate the "no
435 prototype" warning wasn't portable (FreeBSD 3.[23] choked). Now
436 use AC_EGREP_HEADER to see where initgroups() is declared, if
439 Sun Feb 20 12:17:15 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
441 * Fix security hole in mhshowsbr.c which allowed untrusted shell
444 * Released nmh 1.0.3.
446 Thu Feb 10 10:54:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
448 * Oops. %-escapes on mhstore lines in mhn.defaults.sh should not
449 be surrounded by single quotes, as a shell is not spawned when
450 just saving files, and the filenames will end up with literal
451 quotes embedded in them.
453 Fri Feb 04 12:29:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
455 * Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
456 got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
457 the -help output. One theory is that they were making reference
458 to the fact that clearly you know about the -help option since
459 you're currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea
460 to overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
461 supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
464 The other theory is that because you can say something like
465 "mhstore -" and get "mhstore: - ambiguous. It matches" followed
466 by the same list of switches you get with -help, they were saying
467 you can "sorta" abbreviate "-help" as "-". You don't get the
468 "Usage:" string, though, so it's not really the same thing.
470 Thu Feb 03 17:52:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
472 * Applied wesley.craig@umich.edu's KPOP patches. According to him:
474 The following patch fixes a problem with requesting a
475 service key for a machine that has multiple 'A' records. It
476 also makes "-kpop" a command line option, for users who
477 would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".
479 Did no testing of the new features, as I don't have access to a
482 * Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
484 * Modified INSTALL and config.h.in to reflect the new -kpop feature.
486 Fri Jan 28 17:39:24 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
488 * All %-escapes in mhn.defaults that actually expand to something
489 should be surrounded by single quotes. Added quotes to the ones
490 in mhn.defaults.sh that were missing them.
492 * Added check for lynx to write mhshow-show-text/html line in
495 Thu Jan 27 12:22:25 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
497 * makedir() had multiple bugs dating back to MH. An octal
498 constant was apparently being interpreted as decimal, resulting in
499 directories with no user read or execute permissions, making
500 nested directory creation fail. And there wasn't even an
501 _attempt_ to set desired permissions (e.g. from "Folder-Protect:"
502 in .mh_profile) on the outer directories of a nested directory.
504 * A second `make install' would always fail because the check for
505 whether mh_profile.5 existed was written incorrectly.
507 Wed Jan 26 02:22:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
509 * Added documentation on both types of masquerading to post's man
512 Tue Jan 25 22:58:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
514 * Doug's portability fix of my setgid inc autodetection had a
515 caching bug -- if you re-ran configure, uip/Makefile would be
516 corrupted, and installation would bomb out on OSes where inc needs
519 * Implemented a new kind of email address masquerading. Usually,
520 when a user writes a custom "From:" header in a draft, nmh uses it
521 rather than generating one. However, the user's true address is
522 used in the SMTP envelope "From:" and is revealed in the "Sender:"
523 header. Now, when mmailid is set to non-zero, the envelope
524 "From:" uses the address specified in the draft "From:" header,
525 and there is no "Sender:" header. This is useful when sending on
526 behalf of a remote POP3 account or when remote mail robots
527 incorrectly use the envelope "From:" in preference to the body
528 "From:". This processing has only been implemented for post, not
529 for the undocumented spost (which was already missing some "From:"
530 processing that post has).
532 Mon Jan 24 22:26:06 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
534 * Got rid of the rest of the gcc -Wall warnings that I didn't have
535 time for on 1999-07-15 (and, it would seem, some new ones people
536 introduced since then). The primary ones were the warnings that
537 default prototypes were being used for [v]snprintf() and
538 str[n]casecmp(). As of right now, there are _no_ compilation
539 warnings except on dtimep.c-lexed (at least under AIX 4.1.5 and
542 Sun Jan 2 23:42:18 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
544 * Move mhtest from bindir to libdir.
546 * Move sendfiles from libdir to bindir.
548 * Updated sendfiles manpage to reflect this change.
550 * Added documentation for -build and -file switches to repl and
551 forw manpages (patch from Peter Maydell).
553 * Fixed interaction between specifying -cc in profile and -group on
556 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
558 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
559 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
560 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
563 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
565 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
566 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
567 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
568 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
569 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
570 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).
572 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
574 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
576 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
578 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
579 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
580 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
581 caught again. This works for now.
583 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
585 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
587 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
588 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
590 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
592 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
593 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
595 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
597 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
599 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
601 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
602 changes. Both need more cleanup.
604 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
606 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
607 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
608 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
609 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
610 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
613 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
615 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
616 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
617 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
619 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
620 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
623 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
625 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
626 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
627 to a directory on another device with more free space.
629 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
631 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
632 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
634 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
636 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
639 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
640 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
642 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
643 macros, regardless of platform.
645 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
646 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
648 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
649 with x-conversions=gzip.
651 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
653 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
656 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
657 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
658 implicit definition of ioctl().
660 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
661 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
662 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
663 want to mess with them.
665 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
667 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
668 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
670 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
671 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
673 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
674 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
675 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
677 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
678 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
679 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
681 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
684 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
687 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
688 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
691 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
692 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
695 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
696 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
700 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
702 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
703 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
704 preventing compilation on at least linux.
706 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
707 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
709 Thu Sep 09 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
711 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
713 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
714 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
715 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
716 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
718 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
719 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
721 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
723 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
725 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
727 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
728 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
730 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
732 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
733 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
735 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
736 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
737 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
738 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
740 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
741 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
743 Sat Jun 09 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
745 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
746 substitute it for mktemp if available.
748 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
750 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
751 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
754 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
756 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
758 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
760 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
761 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
763 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
764 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
765 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
767 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
768 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
769 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
771 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
772 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
773 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
775 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
776 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
779 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
780 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
782 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
783 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
785 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
788 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
789 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
790 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
792 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
793 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
795 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
796 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
797 <elleron@servtech.com>.
799 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
800 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
803 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
804 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
806 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
807 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
808 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
809 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
811 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
812 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
814 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
818 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
819 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
820 would not be changed.
822 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
823 one from the Apache web server.
825 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
826 (this should have been done a long time ago).
828 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
829 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
830 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
832 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
834 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
836 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
837 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
840 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
841 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
842 removes a bad race condition.
844 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
847 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
848 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
849 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
851 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
852 sequence information.
854 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
855 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
857 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
860 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
863 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
865 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
866 interpret 034 as octal.
868 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
870 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
871 mhstore, and mhbuild.
873 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
874 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
876 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
877 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
879 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
880 in the c_cefile structure when building.
882 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
883 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
885 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
886 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
887 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
889 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
890 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
891 and mhshow. Updated man pages
893 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
895 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
897 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
898 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
901 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
903 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
904 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
906 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
907 header field information.
909 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
910 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
912 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
913 values when parsing a content.
915 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
916 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
918 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
919 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
921 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
922 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
924 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
925 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
927 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
929 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
931 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
933 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
935 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
936 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
939 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
940 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
942 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
943 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
944 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
945 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
946 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
947 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
950 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
952 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
953 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
954 buffer length checks for this parameter.
956 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
957 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
959 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
961 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
962 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
963 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
964 of the limits on the length of command lines.
966 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
967 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
970 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
971 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
972 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
973 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
976 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
980 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
981 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
983 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
984 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
985 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
986 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
989 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
990 mhbuild returns an error.
992 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
993 rename the draft file.
995 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
996 use a global variable.
998 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
999 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
1001 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
1002 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
1004 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
1005 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
1006 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
1008 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
1009 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
1011 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
1012 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
1015 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
1016 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
1019 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
1020 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
1022 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
1023 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
1024 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
1026 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
1027 to new function output_content_folder.
1029 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
1030 new function output_content_file.
1032 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
1033 to new function parse_format_string.
1035 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
1036 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
1037 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
1038 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
1040 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
1041 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
1042 message/external file from ftp.
1044 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
1045 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
1046 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
1048 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
1049 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
1052 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
1055 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
1056 new file mhstoresbr.c
1058 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
1061 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
1062 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
1064 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
1065 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
1067 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
1068 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
1069 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
1071 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
1073 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
1075 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
1076 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
1079 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
1080 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
1082 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
1085 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
1087 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1089 * Released nmh-0.26.
1091 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
1092 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
1093 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
1094 is still the same (dashstuffing).
1096 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
1097 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
1098 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
1099 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
1100 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
1102 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
1103 But it is not on by default.
1105 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
1106 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
1108 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
1110 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
1112 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
1114 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
1116 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
1117 number of the "cur" message when packing.
1119 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1121 * Released nmh-0.25.
1123 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
1124 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
1125 uses the original name of the library.
1127 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
1128 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
1131 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
1132 list_content and list_debug.
1134 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
1136 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
1137 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.
1139 1998-02-27 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1141 * Released nmh-0.24.
1143 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
1145 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
1146 are given, that order doesn't matter.

1155 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
1157 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
1158 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan
1159 content, decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary
1160 string). I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
1162 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
1163 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
1166 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
1168 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
1170 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
1172 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
1173 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
1175 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
1176 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.
1178 * Add note to MACHINES file that on Linux, configure
1179 doesn't find the functions sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
1181 * Fix configuration for machines that don't have (or find)

1189 #define's in h/signals.h in case it's not found.
1191 * Added additional notes about -auto switch in mhn man page.
1193 * Added note about MM_CHARSET environment variable to
1194 mh-profile(5) man page.

1203 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
1204 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
1206 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
1208 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
1209 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
1210 entry point for parsing MIME files.
1212 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
1213 source message on the standard input.
1215 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
1217 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
1218 rather than -rfc934mode.
1220 * Fix mhbuild, so that Content-Description and RFC-822 comments
1221 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
1224 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
1225 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).

1230 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1232 * Released nmh-0.21.
1234 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
1235 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.
1237 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what transfer
1240 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what character set
1241 to use for text contents.
1243 * Removed old hpux specific code from zotnet/tws/lexstring.c
1245 1998-02-02 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1247 * Released nmh-0.21-pre2.
1249 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
1251 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
1252 header fields as per RFC-2047.
1254 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
1255 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
1256 spaces between encoded word are.
1258 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
1260 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
1261 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
1263 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
1264 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
1265 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
1267 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
1269 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
1270 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
1272 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.
1274 * Added support for %(decode) to fmtdump.c.
1276 * check_charset() now accepts US-ASCII as a subset of any
1277 ISO-8859-X character set.
1279 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
1282 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
1283 permissions, not write permissions.
1285 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
1286 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
1288 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
1291 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1293 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
1295 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
1296 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
1298 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
1299 message contains valid character set.
1301 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
1302 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
1304 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
1305 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
1307 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
1308 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
1309 between an encoded word and normal text.
1311 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
1312 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
1314 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
1315 as a RFC-2047 header field.
1317 * The command install-mh now recognizes the switches -version
1320 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
1321 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
1324 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
1325 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
1327 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
1328 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
1330 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
1332 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1334 * Released nmh-0.20.
1336 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
1338 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.
1340 * Changed the default format file for mhl (mhl.format) to
1341 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
1342 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
1344 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
1345 and the To: line was missing.
1347 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
1349 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1351 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
1353 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
1354 watch the POP transaction.
1356 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
1357 first, and use it if available.
1359 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
1360 first, and use it if available.
1362 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1364 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
1366 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
1367 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
1368 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
1371 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
1372 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
1373 returns the state FLDPLUS.
1375 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
1376 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
1379 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
1381 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
1382 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
1384 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
1386 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
1387 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
1389 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
1390 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
1391 message to which you are replying.
1393 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
1394 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
1395 making group replies.
1397 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
1399 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1401 * Released nmh-0.19.
1403 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
1404 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
1406 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
1407 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
1408 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
1409 to the end of the man page.
1411 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
1412 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
1413 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
1414 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
1415 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
1416 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
1418 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
1421 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
1422 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
1423 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
1425 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
1426 the next available number above the message number you wish
1429 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
1430 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
1432 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
1433 file sbr/seq_print.c
1435 * flist will now update the current folder.
1437 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
1438 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
1439 but now undocumented.
1441 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
1444 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
1445 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
1447 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
1449 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
1450 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
1452 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1454 * Released nmh-0.18.
1456 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
1457 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
1458 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
1460 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
1461 retains the public/private status of sequences.
1463 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
1464 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
1465 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
1466 previous public/private status.
1468 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
1471 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
1474 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
1475 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
1476 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
1478 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
1479 take option to determine whether it should get current
1480 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
1481 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
1483 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
1485 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
1486 wait for stopped processes.
1488 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
1489 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
1491 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1493 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
1495 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
1496 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
1498 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
1499 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
1501 * Change the way that memory for message status is
1502 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
1503 the folder/message structure. This required changing
1504 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
1506 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
1509 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
1512 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
1514 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
1515 the debugging output.
1517 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
1518 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
1520 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1522 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
1524 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
1525 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
1527 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
1529 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
1530 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
1531 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
1532 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
1533 in the given sequence.
1535 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
1536 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
1537 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
1538 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
1539 subdirectories of a given directory.
1541 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
1542 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
1543 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
1545 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
1546 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
1548 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
1550 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
1553 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
1554 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
1555 fields are now calculated at runtime.
1557 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
1558 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
1559 are calculated at runtime.
1561 Sun Nov 30 19:14:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1563 * Released nmh-0.18-pre2.
1565 * Add paragraph to man page for install-mh and to INSTALL file
1566 about checking for global mh.profile.
1568 * Renamed m_find() to context_find().
1569 Renamed m_replace() to context_replace().
1570 Renamed m_delete() to context_del().
1571 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
1572 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
1573 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
1575 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
1576 adding message to folder itself.
1578 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
1579 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
1580 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
1583 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
1584 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
1587 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
1588 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
1589 is the same as the direct smtp code).
1591 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
1592 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
1594 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
1595 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
1596 code to use it yet).
1598 Thu Nov 13 18:42:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1600 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.
1602 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never
1603 called with a value larger than 30 mintues.
1605 * Fixed race condition in rmm and refile, so that
1606 context is updated before external rmmproc is called.
1608 * Removed all the OVERHEAD code.
1610 * Move code to add message to folder from refile.c
1613 Fri Jul 25 19:39:29 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1615 * Did some rearranging of the internals of inc.c.
1617 * Make -inplace the default for anno, forw, dist, and repl.
1619 * Changed --enable-smtp to --with-mts={smtp,sendmail}
1621 * Created new directory mts/sendmail for direct sendmail
1622 interface (although it currently still uses SMTP).
1624 * Removed all the TMA (trusted mail agent) code
1626 * Removed all the TTYD (terminal access daemon) code
1628 * Removed all the MF (uucp filtering) code.
1630 * Removed all the code for BERK.
1632 * Removed all the code for stand-alone delivery (MHMTS).
1634 * Split the file mts/sendmail/smail.c into sendmail.c and
1635 smtp.c. Changed the name of the directory to mts/smtp.
1637 * Changed autoconf to use @sysconfdir@ for location of
1638 configuration files.
1640 * Changed #define in mhn.c from FTP to BUILTIN_FTP.
1642 Mon Jul 21 03:22:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1644 * Released nmh-0.17.
1646 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
1648 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
1649 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
1651 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
1654 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
1655 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
1657 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
1658 number of refiled message.
1660 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
1662 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
1663 for return value of wait().
1665 * Change configure to also check /bin for "more".
1667 Sat Jul 12 00:02:23 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1669 * Released nmh-0.16.
1671 Mon Jun 23 20:13:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1673 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
1675 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
1676 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
1677 deal with binary messages, yet).
1679 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
1681 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
1683 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
1684 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
1685 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
1686 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
1687 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
1688 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
1690 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
1691 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
1693 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
1694 From MH-6.8.4 patch.
1696 * Fix double free of ctinfo in user_content when using
1697 #forw with single message. From John MacMillan (and
1700 * Changed -mhnproc switch for show, to -showmimeproc.
1702 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".
1704 * Added "mime" option to "whatnow", which calls the program
1705 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
1708 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
1711 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
1713 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
1714 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
1715 which used unsigned chars by default.
1717 Sat Jun 21 01:21:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1719 * Released nmh-0.15.
1721 * Added new form "scan.unseen" to distribution. It marks messages
1722 which are in any sequence in Unseen-Sequence.
1724 * Do some rearranging of date/time code in zotnet/tws/dtime.c
1726 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
1728 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
1731 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
1732 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
1733 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
1735 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
1736 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
1738 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
1740 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
1741 they conflict with defines on AIX.
1743 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
1744 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
1745 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
1746 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
1748 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
1749 and put in own subroutine.
1751 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
1752 and put in own subroutine.
1754 * Moved code to remove messages from folder into own
1755 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and
1756 refile.c to use new routine.
1758 Fri May 16 06:09:31 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1760 * Renamed m_seqok to seq_nameok.
1762 * Changed m_setunseen, msh, mshcmds, flist, and scan to use
1765 * Changed m_seqflag to return the number of a sequence rather
1766 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
1767 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
1769 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
1772 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before
1773 adding message to sequence.
1775 * Renamed function m_setvis to m_setunseen, and renamed
1776 corresponding file in sbr.
1778 * Renamed function m_setseq to m_setprev, and renamed corresponding
1781 * Changed mark.c and pick.c to use m_seqaddsel and m_seqdelsel.
1783 * Added new function m_seqdelsel to m_seqdel.c, which deletes
1784 all selected messages from a sequence.
1786 * Added new function m_seqaddsel to m_seqadd.c, which adds all
1787 selected messages to a sequence.
1789 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,
1792 Thu May 15 00:53:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1794 * Renamed function pack_folder to m_packfolder, and moved it

1883 will suppress the display of the message header.
1885 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
1887 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c

1904 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
1906 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
1907 folder/message structure when done with folder.
1909 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is

1972 * Released nmh-0.08.
1974 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
1975 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of

1986 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
1987 rather than mmdf format.
1989 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
1990 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
1991 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with

1994 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
1996 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1998 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
2001 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2002 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2003 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
2005 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2006 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to

2009 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2011 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
2012 can still easily change this in config.h).
2014 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
2015 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
2016 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
2018 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2020 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather

2035 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
2037 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
2038 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
2041 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
2042 built-in FTP client in mhn.

2055 * Released nmh-0.06.
2057 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
2058 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
2060 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
2061 many such machines around anymore.
2063 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
2064 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
2066 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
2067 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
2069 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2071 * Check lex generated file in zotnet/tws and use
2072 pre-generated version if necessary.
2074 * Released nmh-0.05.
2076 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
2077 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
2078 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
2079 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
2081 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
2082 be linked in one pass.
2084 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2086 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
2087 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
2089 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2091 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
2093 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2095 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
2096 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
2097 become the current folder.
2099 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2101 * Released nmh-0.04.

2106 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2108 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
2109 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
2110 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
2112 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2114 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
2115 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
2117 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2119 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
2120 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
2123 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
2124 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
2126 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2128 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
2129 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
2130 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
2131 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
2132 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
2133 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
2135 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2137 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
2138 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
2140 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
2141 a file (currently need to specify full path).
2143 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2145 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
2146 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
2148 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2150 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
2151 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
2152 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
2154 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2156 * Released nmh-0.03.
2158 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
2159 .mh_sequence file existed.
2161 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
2162 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
2164 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
2165 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
2168 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2170 * Changed flist option -unseen to -[no]all. Cleaned up
2173 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2175 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
2176 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
2177 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
2179 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2181 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
2182 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
2183 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
2185 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2187 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL
2188 and allocate its own buffer. Borrowed from zsh.
2190 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
2192 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2194 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
2195 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
2196 directory from where the source code is located.
2198 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2200 * Released nmh-0.02.

2218 Sat Dec 28 13:25:05 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2220 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
2221 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
2222 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
2223 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
2224 rather than in script.
2226 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2228 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
2230 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with
2231 macro defined on Solaris.

2235 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
2236 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
2238 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
2239 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
2240 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
2241 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
2244 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2246 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
2247 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.
2249 * Fixed configure test so that termcap variable ospeed is
2252 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2254 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
2256 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included
2257 in mhn.c. Changed md5 to use memset and memcpy.
2259 Fri Dec 20 02:29:37 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2261 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
2262 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
2264 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2266 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
2267 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
2268 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
2269 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
2270 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
2271 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
2273 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2275 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
2277 * Released nmh-0.01.
2279 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
2280 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
2281 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
2284 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2286 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
2289 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2291 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
2292 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
2294 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2296 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
2297 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
2298 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
2299 script to find_program.
2301 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2303 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
2304 speed up -recurse option.
2306 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
2307 yet, but it compiles :-)
2309 * Changed default location for install to
2310 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
2311 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
2312 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
2315 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
2316 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
2317 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
