1 Mon May 29 7:48:15 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
3 * Moved the date parsing routines from zotnet/tws to sbr/ (and
4 tws.h to h/). Updated all source files to reflect to new location
7 * Rewrote dparsetime (dtimep.c) to replace the old
8 zotnet/tws/dtimep.c, lexstring.c, lexedit.c, and
9 dtimep.c-lexed. It should now work with flex (although untested
10 with lex), and requires no sed-ing. For now, I have the lexed
11 version in the distribution, so that end-users don't need to worry
12 about running it through flex/lex. I have not added back support
13 for guessing the time zone when it's not specified.
15 Sun May 28 17:44:15 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
17 * Added autoconf check for getutent().
19 * Changed uip/rcvtty.c and uip/slocal.c to use getutent() and
20 friends. Since I can only check on Linux, please check if
21 this works on other systems.
23 Sun May 28 14:58:49 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
25 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to uip/scansbr.c for more
26 checks for write failures.
28 * Unlink temporary file properly in uip/rcvtty.c.
30 * Moved viamail from bindir to libdir.
32 * Changed sendfiles into sendfiles.in, so that path to viamail
35 * Added gzip support to sendfiles.
37 * Added References header to replcomps and replgroupcomps.
39 Sun May 28 14:39:31 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
41 * Fixed m_getfld bug which caused segmentation faults when
42 incorporating messages which ended in multiple linefeeds crossing
45 Fri May 26 13:21:59 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
47 * msh has been unable to show MIME messages ever since 1.0. Alec
48 Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu> tracked down the problem to the
49 -show flag being passed to mhshow. mhshow is equivalent to the
50 old mhn -show, so we don't need the -show anymore. Removed it.
52 Fri May 12 02:51:21 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
54 * zotnet/bboards is not longer built by default. Goal is to move
55 the assorted functions in zotnet into sbr or some more logical
58 * Moved zotnet/mf to sbr, and changed mf.h references accordingly,
61 Thu May 11 02:21:34 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
63 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that both SRCS and OBJS aren't
64 seperately and redundantly defined, but so that OBJS is a
65 pattern-substituted version of SRCS with suffix .c -> .o. This
66 should make maintainability easier.
68 * Added section to MACHINES indicating what platforms nmh is known
69 to compile and work on, just to give users peace of mind, or
70 something. This is by no means complete or exhaustive, so add
71 whatever you know works.
73 Tue May 09 20:38:04 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
75 * Alphabetized Shantonu's $pop_kinds output on configure's "pop is
76 enabled" line. If POP3 is the only kind of POP enabled, say so,
77 rather than just saying "yes" (which is ambiguous).
79 * Fixed four warnings in Shantonu's new getpass.c. Needed to
80 #include <stdlib.h> for calloc(), <unistd.h> for ttyname(), and
81 "h/mh.h" for adios(). Also changed ch from char to int to get rid
82 of "comparison is always 1 due to limited range of data type" on EOF.
84 * Added steps to README.developers saying to change the version
85 number to X.Y.Z+dev. Did a little rearranging and changed the FTP
86 dir from /home/ftp to /var/ftp to reflect Doug's new machine.
88 * Changed configure.in to use gcc -Wall even without
89 --enable-debug, to prevent developers compiling optimized from
90 introducing warnings, and to give end-users a warm, fuzzy feeling
91 as they (hopefully) see no warnings come out (except perhaps on
92 the lex output file) even with -Wall.
94 * Renamed getpass() to nmh_getpass() since the prototype for
95 getpass() varies from OS to OS, and we want to _always_ use our
96 version of the function. Fixed all the callers to use
97 nmh_getpass() and added it to prototypes.h. Semi-arbitrarily
98 upped MAX_PASSWORD_LEN from 128 to 256. buf was being calloc()'d
99 and the memory leaked -- should have just been declared as static
100 char array. Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the
101 copyright message, as this version has been changed significantly
102 from the BSD version.
104 * Added "nmh-local functions to use in preference to OS versions"
105 section to README.developers (currently just says to use
106 nmh_getpass() instead of system getpass()).
108 * Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the copyright message
111 * Added mts.conf.5 page per Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s
114 This happens on solaris:
117 windex entry incorrect: mts.conf(5) not found.
118 No manual entry for mts.conf.
122 % echo ".so man5/mh-tailor.5" > mts.conf.5
124 done in the man5 directory. We need to add 'mts.conf.5' as a
125 reference sourcing mh-tailor.5.
127 Mon May 08 23:51:55 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
129 * Doug informed me that the way I had restored the "lost" version
130 histories was wrong, because `cvs checkout's of old versions of
131 nmh wouldn't work properly. It occurs to me that this could be
132 fixed by simply deleting those tags in the new-location *,v files,
133 but oh well. I'm putting everything back to the way Doug
134 originally had it. To get the old version history for a file that
135 used to be in the top directory, you'll need to "blindly" do a
136 `cvs log' there (even though you won't have a local copy of the
137 file in that directory). `cvs diff' will no longer be able to
138 diff pre-move versions vs. post-move versions -- you'll have to do
139 a lot of manual gyrations with `cvs checkout' and then use `diff'.
141 * I had alphabetized the --configure options in the --help output
142 awhile back, but Shantonu added --enable-apop just under
143 --enable-pop. Put it in alphabetical order and clarified what
144 --enable-apop does vs. --enable-pop and --with-krb4. Also changed
145 --with-mts help line from "mail transport agent" to "mail
146 transport agent/service" so the 's' in "mts" doesn't seem to come
149 * Added two steps to "releasing nmh" in README.developers. After
150 making the tarball, it's a good idea to diff the tree vs. the CVS
151 tree to make sure no files got left out, and then to chown the
152 files so that they're owned by root, preventing a Trojaning attack
153 by a malicious remote user with a UID matching yours.
155 * Changed DIFFERENCES to say that RPOP is not currently supported
156 rather than implying it by saying that APOP, KPOP, and POP[3] are.
158 Sun May 07 18:16:43 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
160 * Imported NetBSD version of getpass() and made extensive
161 revisions for compatibility with programs that pipe the password
162 to stdin, such as exmh.
164 * Removed tests for system ruserpass() which sometimes gave
165 phantom positive results. Also, bext to use internal functions if
166 we ever want to change .netrc format to something else, or access
169 Sat May 06 08:28:09 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
171 * Restored lost version histories for those moved files by doing a
172 manual `mv' in the CVSROOT on mhost. CVS badly needs a `cvs mv'
173 command so that you can move files (without having physical access
174 to the CVSROOT) without losing versioning. Put MACHINES back at
175 the top level as it needs to be read before building. Fixed DIST
176 variable in {.,docs}/Makefile.in to reflect that and to add
177 missing entry for "INSTALL" file.
179 Sat May 06 13:13:07 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
181 * Re-cleaned up nmh documentation (by moving things to docs
182 subdir) and modified Makefile & configure.in to handle the change.
184 Mon Apr 17 21:28:40 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
186 * Scott Blachowicz pointed out that the configure --help output
187 for --enable-masquerade was misleading. Clarified.
189 Mon Apr 17 19:01:00 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
191 * APOP support can be compiled in to inc and msgchk using
194 * To access an APOP host, specify -apop on the command line
195 along with any -host or -user option.
197 Fri Apr 14 23:10:44 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
199 * Upped the version number to 1.0.4+dev until the next nmh release.
201 * Added a "releasing nmh" section to README.developers, while the
202 process was fresh in my mind.
204 Fri Apr 14 18:21:34 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
206 * Added new files README.developers, ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6, and
207 ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html to DIST target in Makefile.in.
209 * Released nmh-1.0.4.
211 Tue Apr 11 21:37:03 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
213 * Applied Brian Campbell <bacam@tardis.ed.ac.uk>'s mhn.defaults.sh
216 It appears that there shouldn't be quotes around the %s in the
217 iso-8859-1 charset entry; xterm passes the remaining arguments
218 to the program, quoting them means that xterm thinks they're
219 part of the program's name.
221 This %s isn't the same as the "Insert content subtype" one from
222 mhshow-show-* -- it doesn't come from MIME headers and is safe not
225 Sun Apr 09 13:03:59 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
227 * added check in fmt_compile() to handle a single-character
228 format string. fmt_compile() depends on having an array of
229 format characters with an empty item at the end. A
230 single-character format would cause programs using this
231 function to segfault because the algorithm used to decide on
232 the length of the array mistakenly created a single-item array
233 when the format string was one character. This eventually
234 caused problems when the program attempted to test item+1
237 Thu Apr 06 21:53:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
239 * Richard Coleman threw out a lot of old MH-specific files in nmh.
240 Much of the stuff, indeed, is not worth saving, but there are
241 nuggets that are very worthwhile, and should probably be added
242 back in. Most important, IMHO, are the MH change logs, as they
243 can help answer questions like "Why is this code like this?" or
244 "How long has this been broken?" or "What was this ever used for?"
246 I've added a new file to the nmh tree called
247 ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6. It's cobbled together from the
248 mh-6.8.4/papers/mh*/MHCHANGES files. I've re-ordered the entries
249 to go from newest at the top to oldest at the bottom to match the
250 ChangeLog convention. Unfortunately there are no change logs for
251 versions of MH prior to 3 in the MH tar files available at
252 <ftp://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/mh>. Also, it appears to me that there
253 are MH-6.6 changes that aren't documented in the logs.
255 I've also added ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html. This is
256 based on mh-6.8.4/papers/changes/mh-changes.ms. The nroff format
257 and its "catman"-type output are a pain to deal with, but I was
258 loath to throw away the formatting, so I converted the file to
259 HTML. The only actual markup in the body are the "<B>" and "<U>"
260 tags, and "<" and ">" instead of '<' and '>', so it's quite
261 doable to view the file in plain ASCII mode as well. Note that
262 some of the changes this file documents as having been made in
263 MH-6.8.4 may not be present in nmh -- Richard started with 6.8.3
264 and later put in certain 6.8.4 stuff.
266 Wed Apr 05 21:09:28 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
268 * Applied Eric Schnoebelen <eric@cirr.com>'s mhshowsbr.c patch
269 fixing apparent bugs in Dan Winship's new security quoting code:
271 Since upgrading, I've been getting the following errors
272 while attempting to process some MIME messages:
274 (1) Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
279 (2) line 1/10 (END)Segmentation fault (core dumped)
281 (2) appears to be due to the testing of an unset pointer in
282 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux(). (1) appears to be caused by
283 mis-quoting a filename being handed to the shell in
284 mhshowsbr.c:show_content_aux().
286 Resolving the pointer reference issue in
287 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux() turned up a similar mis-quoting
288 problem in the routine.
290 Tue Mar 28 16:17:39 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
292 * Applied Todd.Miller@courtesan.com's patch to dropsbr.c to
293 prevent core dumping on packf. Here's the note from his message:
295 Since sizeof(buffer) == sizeof(tmpbuffer) packf will dump
296 core on a file w/o a From line with a line >= BUFSIZ.
297 I noticed this because I had a junk file in my mail
300 Fri Mar 17 11:59:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
302 * wesley.craig@umich.edu did not document his previous KPOP patch,
303 so I did so, and asked him to check what I wrote. Unfortunately
304 he didn't notice my misunderstanding of his patch. I wrote that
305 if you #define POPSERVICE "kpop", inc and msgchk will use KPOP
306 exclusively, but if you leave it as "pop3", you can use Wesley's
307 new -kpop switch on a given invocation. Instead, however, -kpop
308 turned out to be necessary on every invocation, and a KPOP user
309 complained. Applied Wesley's new patch, which makes things work
310 like I thought his original patch did. After that, did one more
311 clarifying pass to the documentation in inc.man and msgchk.man.
313 Wed Mar 15 18:45:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
315 * When I fixed the long-standing makedir() bugs in January, I had
316 the code call strtoul(..., 0), which I believed to be safe as all
317 modes specified as ASCII constants in the nmh code started with a
318 leading zero (signifying octal), which I did as it would work if
319 internal constants were ever changed to hex. Unfortunately I was
320 unaware of the "Folder-Protect:" .mh_profile entry, which
321 mh-profile.man documents as an octal-only constant, with no
322 leading zero required. I've changed the strtoul() call to an
323 atooi() call and removed the misleading leading zeroes on the
324 ASCII octal constants in the code and man pages. Also changed the
325 "Folder-Protect:" example in the man page to something more
326 interesting than a duplication of the default.
328 * When I added my --enable-masquerade option, you'll note that I
329 didn't make it --enable-nmh-masquerade. I find the --enable-nmh-*
330 options too wordy and I'm not sure why Richard went that route.
331 I've renamed them to just --enable-*, but the old versions will
332 still work as well (they just aren't advertised).
334 * Added a line to the "nmh configuration" output saying whether
337 * Added a new README.developers file. From the file:
339 This file is intended to provide a few tips for anyone doing
340 development on nmh. Developers who learn things "the hard
341 way" about the nmh codebase (as opposed to local info best
342 encoded in a comment) are encouraged to share their wisdom
345 Currently the topics are "autoconf files" and "directory structure".
347 Tue Mar 14 12:41:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
349 * Applied, after some finessing,
350 Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s --with-smtpservers patch:
352 Here's a patch that allows you to add
354 --with-smtpservers=<some.host.name>
356 to the ./configure command line to set the "servers: " line in
357 etc/mts.conf. Around here, we use "mailhost" so that all
358 machines in the current domain just talk to a central machine
359 and nothing else runs an MTA. Now, I can use
361 --with-smtpservers=mailhost
363 instead of having to remember to fix this by hand (and often
364 forgetting to do so!).
366 * Inspired by Simon's patch, added an --enable-masquerade option
367 to configure. It will set the "masquerade:" line of mts.conf.
368 You may specify a subset of the three types of masquerading, like
369 --enable-masquerade="draft_from mmailid", or leave off explicit
370 arguments to enable all three types.
372 * Alphabetized the --enable and --with options in configure.in and
373 INSTALL and added documentation of the two new options to the latter.
375 * Added new dependency for mts.conf: Makefile. If this isn't
376 done, then when you reconfigure nmh with new values for
377 --enable-masquerade or --with-smtpservers, you'll fail to get an
378 updated copy of mts.conf.
380 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtimep.lex patch:
382 It seems that some MUA's didn't handle y2k very well - ELM
383 seems to be one of them, and Ultrix's DXmail (based on MH!).
384 I've got a few emails this month that look like:
386 575 Jan 00 Xxxxxx Xxxx 3603 ...
388 22+ Jan 00 Xxx Xxxxx 1771 ...
390 The first has "15 Jan 100" as the date and the second has
391 "19 Jan 00" as the date. The following works around this so
392 that scan, show, sortm, etc work ok.
394 I put Simon's patch under the control of a new #define called
395 FIX_NON_Y2K_COMPLIANT_MUA_DATES. There's some commentary in
396 acconfig.h about when you might not want to #define it.
398 * Created new dtimep.c-lexed with Simon's change using dtimep.lex
399 lexed on Solaris 2.6. Added missing dependency in
400 zotnet/tws/Makefile.in for dtimep.c: dtimep.c-lexed.
402 * Added scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD format files.
404 Mon Mar 13 21:32:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
406 * Applied Sullivan N. Beck <sbeck@cise.ufl.edu>'s mhshow-suffix patch:
408 With the patch below, you can add lines like:
410 mhshow-suffix-application/msword: .doc
411 mhshow-suffix-application/PostScript: .ps
413 to the mhn.defaults file to append the given suffix to a
414 scratch file. This allows applications which require a
415 certain suffix to run properly.
417 * Removed -force_html from lynx entry in mhn.defaults.sh (I
418 believe older versions of lynx lack that option) and added
419 "mhshow-suffix-text/html: .html".
421 * Modified username_extension masquerading to only use the
422 extended address on generated [Resent-]From: lines and SMTP
423 envelope From:. With Neil's original implementation, nmh's global
424 idea of the username was changed, which would result in inc lying
425 and saying you had no new mail because it was looking for a
426 mailbox called, for instance, "dan-nmh" (where username was "dan"
427 and $USERNAME_EXTENSION was "-nmh").
429 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtime.c patch:
431 There's a wrap-around problem that affects the implementation
432 of Zeller's congruence in dtime.c. This causes the day-of-week
433 calculations to fail for dates after Feb 29, 2000 (probably up
434 until some year far in the future).
436 Mon Mar 06 12:20:20 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
438 * Applied Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s msh.c patch:
440 I finally tracked down the problem in msh that was causing
441 errors whenever I tried to examine a 'mmdf' style mailbox.
443 It turns out that not enough memory was being allocated with
444 calloc(), causing memory pointers to be overwritten and
447 Fri Mar 03 16:07:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
449 * Changed the new "plussed_user" option to mts.conf's
450 "masquerade:" to "username_extension" after getting feedback from
451 qmail users, who use '-' as a separator rather than '+'. Removed
452 checking of $USERPLUS variable. Now check $USERNAME_EXTENSION,
453 which needs to include the appropriate separator for your MTA
454 ('-', '+', or whatever) as its first character.
456 Thu Mar 02 23:04:30 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
458 * Added a new "boolean" type to mh.h and TRUE and FALSE constants.
460 * Added a note to DIFFERENCES stating that it's out-of-date
461 (Richard was the last one to update it) and that we should
462 consider only documenting incompatibilities with MH there.
464 * Implemented (and documented) a third kind of username
465 masquerading: "plussed user" masquerading. This one was suggested
466 by Neil Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>. It's based on sendmail's
467 "plussed user" feature, where mail sent to <user>+<string> will be
468 delivered to <user>. When it's enabled, it's controlled by the
469 $USERPLUS environment variable. How is it enabled? Well, that
472 * Renamed the "mmailid:" setting in mts.conf to "masquerade:", and
473 changed it so that rather than being a boolean, it can be set to
474 any combination of the three values "draft_from", "mmailid", and
475 "plussed_user". Thus it is now possible to enable the three types
476 of masquerading individually.
478 * Fixed a bug with "mmailid" masquerading (dating back to MH?)
479 where if it was turned on, ','s would no longer be considered
480 GECOS field delimiters.
482 Wed Mar 01 23:30:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
484 * Changed the GECOS-field '&' translation behavior to be
485 controlled by the BSD42 #define rather than GCOS_HACK, since it's
486 apparently always appropriate on OSes where BSD42 is #defined, and
487 never appropriate on any other OSes. Thanks to Kimmo Suominen for
488 responding to my "What is this code here for?" comment in mts.c
489 and explaining the feature.
491 Mon Feb 28 21:50:29 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
493 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3+dev (ideally this should be
494 done by whoever makes a release tar file, immediately after doing
497 * Applied Paul Fox <pgf-spam@foxharp.boston.ma.us>'s scansbr.c
498 patch, posted to comp.mail.mh, which he says prevents loss of mail
499 when inc'ing into a full filesystem.
501 * Changed "echo > stamp-h.in" in Makefile.in to "date > stamp-h.in"
502 so that stamp-h.in will be different each time configure.in and
503 related files are changed, making it easier to check it in (which
504 is necessary to prevent unnecessary autoconf calls).
506 * My declaration of initgroups() in slocal.c to eliminate the "no
507 prototype" warning wasn't portable (FreeBSD 3.[23] choked). Now
508 use AC_EGREP_HEADER to see where initgroups() is declared, if
511 Sun Feb 20 12:17:15 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
513 * Fix security hole in mhshowsbr.c which allowed untrusted shell
516 * Released nmh 1.0.3.
518 Thu Feb 10 10:54:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
520 * Oops. %-escapes on mhstore lines in mhn.defaults.sh should not
521 be surrounded by single quotes, as a shell is not spawned when
522 just saving files, and the filenames will end up with literal
523 quotes embedded in them.
525 Fri Feb 04 12:29:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
527 * Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
528 got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
529 the -help output. One theory is that they were making reference
530 to the fact that clearly you know about the -help option since
531 you're currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea
532 to overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
533 supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
536 The other theory is that because you can say something like
537 "mhstore -" and get "mhstore: - ambiguous. It matches" followed
538 by the same list of switches you get with -help, they were saying
539 you can "sorta" abbreviate "-help" as "-". You don't get the
540 "Usage:" string, though, so it's not really the same thing.
542 Thu Feb 03 17:52:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
544 * Applied wesley.craig@umich.edu's KPOP patches. According to him:
546 The following patch fixes a problem with requesting a
547 service key for a machine that has multiple 'A' records. It
548 also makes "-kpop" a command line option, for users who
549 would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".
551 Did no testing of the new features, as I don't have access to a
554 * Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
556 * Modified INSTALL and config.h.in to reflect the new -kpop feature.
558 Fri Jan 28 17:39:24 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
560 * All %-escapes in mhn.defaults that actually expand to something
561 should be surrounded by single quotes. Added quotes to the ones
562 in mhn.defaults.sh that were missing them.
564 * Added check for lynx to write mhshow-show-text/html line in
567 Thu Jan 27 12:22:25 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
569 * makedir() had multiple bugs dating back to MH. An octal
570 constant was apparently being interpreted as decimal, resulting in
571 directories with no user read or execute permissions, making
572 nested directory creation fail. And there wasn't even an
573 _attempt_ to set desired permissions (e.g. from "Folder-Protect:"
574 in .mh_profile) on the outer directories of a nested directory.
576 * A second `make install' would always fail because the check for
577 whether mh_profile.5 existed was written incorrectly.
579 Wed Jan 26 02:22:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
581 * Added documentation on both types of masquerading to post's man
584 Tue Jan 25 22:58:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
586 * Doug's portability fix of my setgid inc autodetection had a
587 caching bug -- if you re-ran configure, uip/Makefile would be
588 corrupted, and installation would bomb out on OSes where inc needs
591 * Implemented a new kind of email address masquerading. Usually,
592 when a user writes a custom "From:" header in a draft, nmh uses it
593 rather than generating one. However, the user's true address is
594 used in the SMTP envelope "From:" and is revealed in the "Sender:"
595 header. Now, when mmailid is set to non-zero, the envelope
596 "From:" uses the address specified in the draft "From:" header,
597 and there is no "Sender:" header. This is useful when sending on
598 behalf of a remote POP3 account or when remote mail robots
599 incorrectly use the envelope "From:" in preference to the body
600 "From:". This processing has only been implemented for post, not
601 for the undocumented spost (which was already missing some "From:"
602 processing that post has).
604 Mon Jan 24 22:26:06 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
606 * Got rid of the rest of the gcc -Wall warnings that I didn't have
607 time for on 1999-07-15 (and, it would seem, some new ones people
608 introduced since then). The primary ones were the warnings that
609 default prototypes were being used for [v]snprintf() and
610 str[n]casecmp(). As of right now, there are _no_ compilation
611 warnings except on dtimep.c-lexed (at least under AIX 4.1.5 and
614 Sun Jan 2 23:42:18 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
616 * Move mhtest from bindir to libdir.
618 * Move sendfiles from libdir to bindir.
620 * Updated sendfiles manpage to reflect this change.
622 * Added documentation for -build and -file switches to repl and
623 forw manpages (patch from Peter Maydell).
625 * Fixed interaction between specifying -cc in profile and -group on
628 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
630 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
631 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
632 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
635 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
637 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
638 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
639 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
640 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
641 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
642 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).
644 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
646 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
648 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
650 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
651 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
652 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
653 caught again. This works for now.
655 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
657 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
659 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
660 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
662 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
664 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
665 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
667 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
669 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
671 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
673 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
674 changes. Both need more cleanup.
676 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
678 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
679 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
680 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
681 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
682 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
685 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
687 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
688 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
689 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
691 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
692 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
695 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
697 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
698 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
699 to a directory on another device with more free space.
701 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
703 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
704 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
706 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
708 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
711 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
712 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
714 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
715 macros, regardless of platform.
717 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
718 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
720 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
721 with x-conversions=gzip.
723 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
725 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
728 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
729 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
730 implicit definition of ioctl().
732 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
733 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
734 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
735 want to mess with them.
737 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
739 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
740 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
742 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
743 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
745 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
746 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
747 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
749 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
750 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
751 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
753 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
756 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
759 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
760 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
763 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
764 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
767 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
768 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
772 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
774 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
775 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
776 preventing compilation on at least linux.
778 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
779 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
781 Thu Sep 09 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
783 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
785 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
786 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
787 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
788 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
790 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
791 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
793 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
795 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
797 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
799 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
800 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
802 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
804 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
805 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
807 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
808 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
809 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
810 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
812 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
813 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
815 Sat Jun 09 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
817 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
818 substitute it for mktemp if available.
820 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
822 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
823 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
826 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
828 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
830 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
832 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
833 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
835 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
836 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
837 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
839 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
840 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
841 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
843 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
844 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
845 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
847 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
848 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
851 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
852 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
854 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
855 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
857 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
860 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
861 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
862 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
864 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
865 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
867 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
868 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
869 <elleron@servtech.com>.
871 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
872 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
875 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
876 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
878 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
879 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
880 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
881 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
883 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
884 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
886 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
890 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
891 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
892 would not be changed.
894 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
895 one from the Apache web server.
897 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
898 (this should have been done a long time ago).
900 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
901 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
902 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
904 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
906 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
908 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
909 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
912 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
913 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
914 removes a bad race condition.
916 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
919 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
920 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
921 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
923 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
924 sequence information.
926 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
927 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
929 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
932 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
935 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
937 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
938 interpret 034 as octal.
940 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
942 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
943 mhstore, and mhbuild.
945 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
946 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
948 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
949 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
951 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
952 in the c_cefile structure when building.
954 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
955 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
957 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
958 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
959 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
961 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
962 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
963 and mhshow. Updated man pages
965 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
967 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
969 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
970 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
973 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
975 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
976 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
978 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
979 header field information.
981 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
982 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
984 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
985 values when parsing a content.
987 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
988 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
990 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
991 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
993 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
994 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
996 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
997 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
999 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
1001 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
1003 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
1005 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
1007 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
1008 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
1011 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
1012 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
1014 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
1015 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
1016 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
1017 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
1018 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
1019 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
1022 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1024 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
1025 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
1026 buffer length checks for this parameter.
1028 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
1029 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
1031 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1033 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
1034 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
1035 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
1036 of the limits on the length of command lines.
1038 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
1039 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
1042 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
1043 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
1044 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
1045 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
1048 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1050 * Released nmh-0.27.
1052 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
1053 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
1055 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
1056 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
1057 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
1058 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
1061 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
1062 mhbuild returns an error.
1064 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
1065 rename the draft file.
1067 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
1068 use a global variable.
1070 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
1071 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
1073 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
1074 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
1076 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
1077 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
1078 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
1080 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
1081 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
1083 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
1084 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
1087 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
1088 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
1091 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
1092 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
1094 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
1095 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
1096 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
1098 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
1099 to new function output_content_folder.
1101 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
1102 new function output_content_file.
1104 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
1105 to new function parse_format_string.
1107 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
1108 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
1109 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
1110 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
1112 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
1113 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
1114 message/external file from ftp.
1116 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
1117 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
1118 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
1120 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
1121 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
1124 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
1127 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
1128 new file mhstoresbr.c
1130 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
1133 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
1134 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
1136 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
1137 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
1139 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
1140 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
1141 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
1143 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
1145 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
1147 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
1148 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
1151 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
1152 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
1154 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
1157 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
1159 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1161 * Released nmh-0.26.
1163 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
1164 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
1165 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
1166 is still the same (dashstuffing).
1168 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
1169 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
1170 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
1171 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
1172 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
1174 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
1175 But it is not on by default.
1177 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
1178 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
1180 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
1182 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
1184 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
1186 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
1188 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
1189 number of the "cur" message when packing.
1191 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1193 * Released nmh-0.25.
1195 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
1196 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
1197 uses the original name of the library.
1199 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
1200 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
1203 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
1204 list_content and list_debug.
1206 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
1208 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
1209 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.
1211 1998-02-27 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1213 * Released nmh-0.24.
1215 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
1217 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
1218 are given, that order doesn't matter.
1220 * Fix bug in seq_list.c when realloc'ing for
1221 large sequence line.
1223 1998-02-23 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1225 * Released nmh-0.23.
1227 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
1229 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
1230 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan
1231 content, decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary
1232 string). I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
1234 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
1235 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
1238 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
1240 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
1242 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
1244 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
1245 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
1247 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
1248 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.
1250 * Add note to MACHINES file that on Linux, configure
1251 doesn't find the functions sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
1253 * Fix configuration for machines that don't have (or find)
1254 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
1256 1998-02-11 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1258 * Released nmh-0.22.
1260 * Add a configure check for sigsetjmp. Add some conditional
1261 #define's in h/signals.h in case it's not found.
1263 * Added additional notes about -auto switch in mhn man page.
1265 * Added note about MM_CHARSET environment variable to
1266 mh-profile(5) man page.
1268 * Fix signal problem in mhn.c (change setjmp/longjmp to
1269 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp).
1271 1998-02-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1273 * Released nmh-0.22-pre1.
1275 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
1276 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
1278 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
1280 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
1281 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
1282 entry point for parsing MIME files.
1284 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
1285 source message on the standard input.
1287 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
1289 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
1290 rather than -rfc934mode.
1292 * Fix mhbuild, so that Content-Description and RFC-822 comments
1293 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
1296 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
1297 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).
1299 * Restore HP specific code to zotnet/tws/lexstring.c. Apparently
1302 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1304 * Released nmh-0.21.
1306 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
1307 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.
1309 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what transfer
1312 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what character set
1313 to use for text contents.
1315 * Removed old hpux specific code from zotnet/tws/lexstring.c
1317 1998-02-02 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1319 * Released nmh-0.21-pre2.
1321 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
1323 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
1324 header fields as per RFC-2047.
1326 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
1327 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
1328 spaces between encoded word are.
1330 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
1332 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
1333 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
1335 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
1336 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
1337 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
1339 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
1341 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
1342 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
1344 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.
1346 * Added support for %(decode) to fmtdump.c.
1348 * check_charset() now accepts US-ASCII as a subset of any
1349 ISO-8859-X character set.
1351 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
1354 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
1355 permissions, not write permissions.
1357 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
1358 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
1360 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
1363 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1365 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
1367 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
1368 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
1370 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
1371 message contains valid character set.
1373 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
1374 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
1376 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
1377 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
1379 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
1380 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
1381 between an encoded word and normal text.
1383 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
1384 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
1386 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
1387 as a RFC-2047 header field.
1389 * The command install-mh now recognizes the switches -version
1392 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
1393 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
1396 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
1397 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
1399 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
1400 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
1402 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
1404 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1406 * Released nmh-0.20.
1408 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
1410 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.
1412 * Changed the default format file for mhl (mhl.format) to
1413 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
1414 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
1416 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
1417 and the To: line was missing.
1419 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
1421 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1423 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
1425 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
1426 watch the POP transaction.
1428 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
1429 first, and use it if available.
1431 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
1432 first, and use it if available.
1434 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1436 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
1438 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
1439 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
1440 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
1443 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
1444 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
1445 returns the state FLDPLUS.
1447 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
1448 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
1451 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
1453 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
1454 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
1456 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
1458 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
1459 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
1461 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
1462 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
1463 message to which you are replying.
1465 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
1466 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
1467 making group replies.
1469 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
1471 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1473 * Released nmh-0.19.
1475 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
1476 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
1478 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
1479 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
1480 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
1481 to the end of the man page.
1483 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
1484 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
1485 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
1486 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
1487 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
1488 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
1490 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
1493 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
1494 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
1495 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
1497 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
1498 the next available number above the message number you wish
1501 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
1502 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
1504 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
1505 file sbr/seq_print.c
1507 * flist will now update the current folder.
1509 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
1510 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
1511 but now undocumented.
1513 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
1516 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
1517 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
1519 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
1521 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
1522 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
1524 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1526 * Released nmh-0.18.
1528 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
1529 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
1530 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
1532 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
1533 retains the public/private status of sequences.
1535 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
1536 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
1537 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
1538 previous public/private status.
1540 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
1543 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
1546 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
1547 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
1548 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
1550 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
1551 take option to determine whether it should get current
1552 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
1553 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
1555 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
1557 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
1558 wait for stopped processes.
1560 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
1561 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
1563 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1565 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
1567 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
1568 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
1570 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
1571 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
1573 * Change the way that memory for message status is
1574 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
1575 the folder/message structure. This required changing
1576 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
1578 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
1581 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
1584 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
1586 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
1587 the debugging output.
1589 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
1590 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
1592 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1594 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
1596 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
1597 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
1599 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
1601 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
1602 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
1603 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
1604 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
1605 in the given sequence.
1607 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
1608 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
1609 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
1610 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
1611 subdirectories of a given directory.
1613 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
1614 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
1615 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
1617 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
1618 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
1620 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
1622 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
1625 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
1626 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
1627 fields are now calculated at runtime.
1629 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
1630 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
1631 are calculated at runtime.
1633 Sun Nov 30 19:14:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1635 * Released nmh-0.18-pre2.
1637 * Add paragraph to man page for install-mh and to INSTALL file
1638 about checking for global mh.profile.
1640 * Renamed m_find() to context_find().
1641 Renamed m_replace() to context_replace().
1642 Renamed m_delete() to context_del().
1643 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
1644 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
1645 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
1647 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
1648 adding message to folder itself.
1650 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
1651 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
1652 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
1655 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
1656 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
1659 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
1660 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
1661 is the same as the direct smtp code).
1663 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
1664 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
1666 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
1667 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
1668 code to use it yet).
1670 Thu Nov 13 18:42:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1672 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.
1674 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never
1675 called with a value larger than 30 mintues.
1677 * Fixed race condition in rmm and refile, so that
1678 context is updated before external rmmproc is called.
1680 * Removed all the OVERHEAD code.
1682 * Move code to add message to folder from refile.c
1685 Fri Jul 25 19:39:29 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1687 * Did some rearranging of the internals of inc.c.
1689 * Make -inplace the default for anno, forw, dist, and repl.
1691 * Changed --enable-smtp to --with-mts={smtp,sendmail}
1693 * Created new directory mts/sendmail for direct sendmail
1694 interface (although it currently still uses SMTP).
1696 * Removed all the TMA (trusted mail agent) code
1698 * Removed all the TTYD (terminal access daemon) code
1700 * Removed all the MF (uucp filtering) code.
1702 * Removed all the code for BERK.
1704 * Removed all the code for stand-alone delivery (MHMTS).
1706 * Split the file mts/sendmail/smail.c into sendmail.c and
1707 smtp.c. Changed the name of the directory to mts/smtp.
1709 * Changed autoconf to use @sysconfdir@ for location of
1710 configuration files.
1712 * Changed #define in mhn.c from FTP to BUILTIN_FTP.
1714 Mon Jul 21 03:22:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1716 * Released nmh-0.17.
1718 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
1720 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
1721 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
1723 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
1726 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
1727 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
1729 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
1730 number of refiled message.
1732 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
1734 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
1735 for return value of wait().
1737 * Change configure to also check /bin for "more".
1739 Sat Jul 12 00:02:23 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1741 * Released nmh-0.16.
1743 Mon Jun 23 20:13:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1745 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
1747 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
1748 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
1749 deal with binary messages, yet).
1751 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
1753 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
1755 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
1756 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
1757 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
1758 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
1759 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
1760 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
1762 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
1763 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
1765 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
1766 From MH-6.8.4 patch.
1768 * Fix double free of ctinfo in user_content when using
1769 #forw with single message. From John MacMillan (and
1772 * Changed -mhnproc switch for show, to -showmimeproc.
1774 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".
1776 * Added "mime" option to "whatnow", which calls the program
1777 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
1780 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
1783 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
1785 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
1786 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
1787 which used unsigned chars by default.

1804 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
1805 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
1807 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
1808 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
1810 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
1812 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
1813 they conflict with defines on AIX.
1815 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
1816 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
1817 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
1818 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
1820 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
1821 and put in own subroutine.
1823 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
1824 and put in own subroutine.

1853 * Changed mark.c and pick.c to use m_seqaddsel and m_seqdelsel.
1855 * Added new function m_seqdelsel to m_seqdel.c, which deletes
1856 all selected messages from a sequence.
1858 * Added new function m_seqaddsel to m_seqadd.c, which adds all
1859 selected messages to a sequence.
1861 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,
1864 Thu May 15 00:53:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1866 * Renamed function pack_folder to m_packfolder, and moved it
1867 from uip/folder.c into its own file sbr/m_packfolder.c
1869 Wed May 14 23:38:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1871 * Changed function m_gmsg to m_readfolder. Renamed file

1908 * Released nmh-0.13.
1910 * Changed mhpath so it doesn't abort if a message sequence
1911 such as "mhpath all" expands to more than 1000 messages.
1912 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
1913 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
1916 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
1917 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
1919 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1921 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if
1922 necessary. So `folders' can now handle more than 300 folders.
1924 Tue Apr 22 14:01:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1926 * Change configure to use a compile check to see if the tm struct

1955 will suppress the display of the message header.
1957 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
1959 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c
1960 and mshcmds.c, rather than hard coding in /bin/cat.

1969 500 elements at a time (rather than MAXFOLDERS / 5).
1971 * Add note to man page for mhmail that zero length messages are
1972 not sent. Need to use -body "" to send empty messages.
1974 * zotnet/mts/mts.c : compare character with '\0', not NULL.
1976 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
1978 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
1979 folder/message structure when done with folder.
1981 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is
1982 defined even if message is missing "From " line.

1996 The "From " line is now removed from all messages.
1998 * inc now saves the date from the "From " envelope in the
1999 Delivery-Date header for all messages.
2001 * sbr/m_getfld.c: Clean up processing of Return-Path and

2006 * client.c: cast iaddr to int before comparing return value
2007 of inet_addr with NOTOK.
2009 Tue Mar 11 04:38:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2011 * Grep test for signal names was failing on some OS'es because

2041 * rcvtty.c : Changed to use #define UTMP_FILE (if exists) rather
2042 than hard coded "/etc/utmp".
2044 * Released nmh-0.08.
2046 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
2047 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of
2048 locking database itself.

2052 * Added slocal action `mmdf' to deliver to a file in mmdf format.
2054 * Changed the slocal actions `file' and `>' to always deliver in
2055 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
2058 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
2059 rather than mmdf format.
2061 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
2062 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
2063 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
2064 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
2066 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
2068 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2070 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
2073 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2074 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2075 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
2077 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2078 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2079 rcvpack so you can choose the preferred format.
2081 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2083 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
2084 can still easily change this in config.h).
2086 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
2087 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
2088 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
2090 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2092 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather

2107 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
2109 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
2110 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
2113 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
2114 built-in FTP client in mhn.

2127 * Released nmh-0.06.
2129 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
2130 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
2132 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
2133 many such machines around anymore.
2135 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
2136 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
2138 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
2139 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
2141 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2143 * Check lex generated file in zotnet/tws and use
2144 pre-generated version if necessary.
2146 * Released nmh-0.05.
2148 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
2149 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
2150 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
2151 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
2153 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
2154 be linked in one pass.
2156 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2158 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
2159 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
2161 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2163 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
2165 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2167 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
2168 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
2169 become the current folder.
2171 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2173 * Released nmh-0.04.

2178 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2180 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
2181 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
2182 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
2184 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2186 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
2187 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
2189 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2191 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
2192 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
2195 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
2196 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
2198 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2200 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
2201 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
2202 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
2203 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
2204 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
2205 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
2207 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2209 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
2210 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
2212 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
2213 a file (currently need to specify full path).
2215 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2217 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
2218 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
2220 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2222 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
2223 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
2224 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
2226 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2228 * Released nmh-0.03.
2230 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
2231 .mh_sequence file existed.
2233 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
2234 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
2236 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
2237 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
2240 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2242 * Changed flist option -unseen to -[no]all. Cleaned up
2245 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2247 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
2248 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
2249 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
2251 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2253 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
2254 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
2255 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
2257 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2259 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL
2260 and allocate its own buffer. Borrowed from zsh.
2262 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
2264 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2266 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
2267 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
2268 directory from where the source code is located.
2270 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2272 * Released nmh-0.02.

2292 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
2293 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
2294 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
2295 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
2296 rather than in script.
2298 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2300 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
2302 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with

2307 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
2308 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
2310 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
2311 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
2312 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
2313 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
2316 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2318 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
2319 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.
2321 * Fixed configure test so that termcap variable ospeed is
2324 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2326 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
2328 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included
2329 in mhn.c. Changed md5 to use memset and memcpy.
2331 Fri Dec 20 02:29:37 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2333 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
2334 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
2336 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2338 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
2339 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
2340 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
2341 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
2342 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
2343 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
2345 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2347 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
2349 * Released nmh-0.01.
2351 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
2352 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
2353 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
2356 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2358 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
2361 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2363 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
2364 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
2366 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2368 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults

2375 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
2376 speed up -recurse option.
2378 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
2379 yet, but it compiles :-)
2381 * Changed default location for install to
2382 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
2383 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
2384 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
2387 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
2388 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
2389 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
