1 Sun Dec 24 10:06:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
3 * Updated INSTALL with information about the
6 * Fixed the Hesiod tests in configure.in. In
7 systems where res_send was in -lresolv, this
8 information was not being communicated to the
9 HESIOD_LIBS var. Now, if res_send is not found
10 in the default libraries, it's assumed to be
11 in -lresolv, and thus -lresolv is appended to
12 HESIOD_LIBS, which will need that to avoid
13 undefined symbols problems.
15 * Fixed the Kerberos tests in configure.in. New
16 versions of Kerberos 5 have renamed -lcrypto
17 to -lk5crypto (circa krb5 1.1 or thereabouts). The
18 new test tries to determine if -lk5crypto exists. If so,
19 this is a new krb5 system. If not, test for -lcrypto
20 and the rest of old krb5. If that fails, look
21 for a genuine krb4 installation.
23 Fri Dec 22 22:08:51 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
25 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in msgchk.man.
26 -snoop was documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
28 Fri Dec 22 23:42:16 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
30 * Made a new ./configure option called
31 "--with-locking" that allows the file
32 locking mechanism to be chosen there instead of
33 requiring a manual edit of config.h.
35 * If the option is not explicitly set, or an
36 invalid option is specified, "dot" locking is
37 chosen. Valid options are "dot", "fcntl",
38 "flock", and "lockf". We need a way to tell
39 the user that these are the valid options, and
40 change the flag "--with-locking" if it's not
43 Fri Dec 22 19:21:29 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
45 * Remove the lex-specific memory hints at the
46 beginning of sbr/dtimep.lex. We've already
47 committed to supporting flex only, since
48 lex does not easily allow us to parse a single
49 string, as well as other problems documented
50 below and on nmh-workers.
52 * Added a switch statement to configure.in to
53 test for Mac OS X. If this is the case, LDFLAGS
54 should not contain "-s" since the linker rejects
57 * Updated MACHINES to include Mac OS X Public Beta,
58 as well as Linux 2.4 running glibc 2.2.
60 Wed Dec 20 16:00:46 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
62 * Marked deprecated directories in docs/README.developers
63 as deprecated, with pointers to the new code location.
64 Eventually these deprecated directories should go away.
66 Tue Dec 19 19:16:37 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
68 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in inc.man. -snoop was
69 documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
71 Thu Dec 14 14:32:09 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
73 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
74 versions on ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/config, dated
75 12-07-00. This should prevent configure from failing
76 on newer operating systems because config.{guess,sub}
77 couldn't correctly identify them.
79 Thu Dec 14 1:30:44 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
81 * Fixed the circular dependency created when I moved
82 zotnet/mts to mts/generic and merged them into libmts.
83 mts/generic/client.c and mts/generic/mts.c are now in sbr/
84 (and thus in libmh), which makes libmh self-contained and
85 not depending on an external archive.
87 * All include statements now look for mts.h in h/. The
88 Makefiles and configure script have been modified so that
89 mts/generic is no longer built.
91 Mon Dec 11 22:08:07 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
93 * When Shantonu made the new libmts.a, he swapped $(MTSLIB) and
94 libmh.a in sbr/Makefile.in so that libmh.a comes first, but this
95 causes the build to fail on Solaris, because libmts.a has to get
96 ruserpass() out of libmh.a. Swapping them back to the way Ken
97 Hornstein's patch (which I applied on Jul 20) put them, with
98 libmh.a correctly coming second. If there are times when libmts.a
99 needs to come second, then it would appear there's a circular
100 dependency and someone (Shantonu?) did an mts merge incorrectly.
102 Fri Sep 8 01:36:23 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
104 * Took out bad time textual time zones like BST and JST.
105 I found them online somewhere, but am not sure if they're
108 Fri Sep 8 00:36:48 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
110 * Moved zotnet/mts to mts/generic. This code reorganization
111 makes the entire zotnet tree deprecated -- bboards is unneeded,
112 mf was was moved to sbr, tws was rewritten and moved to sbr, and
115 * Created a new static library called libmts.a used during
116 compilation which includes the generic mts code and the
117 smtp/sendmail code. This supercedes the functionality of the
118 old libsmtp.a and the remains of libzot.a.
120 * Updated header includes to reference the new location of mts.h
121 in mts/generic/mts.h. Also, update the configure and top-level
122 Makefile not to descend into zotnet. Also, they don't descend
123 into mts/mmdf and mts/sendmail (the sendmail code has been
124 merged into the smtp code).
126 * Added #include <h/nmh.h> to h/md5.h, since my compile was
127 complaining about implicitly-declared memcpy and memset, which
128 appear to be in strings.h. In any event, nmh.h should take care
131 * When doing a "make nmhdist", notice that the generated
132 snapshot does not include zotnet of the mts directories as noted
133 above. Since they are no longer compiled, and I don't see any
134 obvious code path to get to them, end-users should probably
135 not need them. If you think otherwise, turn Makefile generation
136 back on in configure.in and turn on recursion into those dirs
137 in the appropriate Makefile.in
139 Wed Sep 6 22:40:03 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
141 * Tracked down the problem in the new dtimep where time
142 zones were being radically misreported. It was because the
143 parser knew about military time zones (such as M or E) but in
144 some cases did not know about the textual representation of
145 some zones (like MET). When it encountered one of these, the
146 date parser misread MET as the military time zone T (well, first
147 zone M, then E, and finally T). I took military zones out, and
148 things seem much better. Also, the default behavior of parsing
149 time zones appears to default to GMT in the absence of better
150 info, which is less bogus than assuming the mail came from the
151 current time zone, which was the behavior in 1.04.
153 Thu Aug 10 13:22:13 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
155 * Decided that limiting the message number columns to 3 on my
156 scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD (to try to regain space taken by
157 extra date info) was ill-conceived. It's not that tough to get
158 past 999 messages, though I imagine it's rather rare to exceed
159 9999. Changed these to 4. Also put the "replied / encrypted"
160 column back in YYYYMMDD -- I've never seen it show anything but a
161 space, but that space is useful if you use scan, grep, and awk
162 (with the default field separator) to grab message numbers (I know
163 -- pick should really be used for these purposes...).
165 Mon Aug 7 20:11:09 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
167 * Modify umask set by mhshow to enable user execute bit, so that
168 viewers that create temporary directories (e.g., lynx) will be
171 Thu Aug 03 17:14:08 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
173 * TODO: Allow multiple simultaneous differing contexts, probably
174 each tied to a parent (terminal) process.
176 Tue Aug 1 10:48:05 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
178 * Makefile install rules should not look for generated files in
179 the source tree -- this will happen to work when configuring and
180 building inside the source tree but will fail when using an
181 external build tree. Fixed etc/Makefile.in.
183 Mon Jul 24 16:20:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
185 * When Shantonu wrote the new, more portable dtimep.lex, he left
186 out the #ifdef DSTXXX stuff for some reason. Not a good idea, as
187 that code is required for proper printing of numeric-offset
188 timezones that have daylight saving time. Without that code,
189 -0700 during DST gets printed as MST instead of PDT.
191 * Renamed DSTXXX as ADJUST_NUMERIC_ONLY_TZ_OFFSETS_WRT_DST and
192 added an explanatory comment by its #definition.
194 * Updated README.developers with the fact that zotnet/tws is going away.
196 Thu Jul 20 20:30:52 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
198 * Moved Kimmo's new "--with-hash-backup" to be output with the
199 rest of the --with options in the configure --help output. Also,
200 people did not preserve my alphabetization of the --with options
201 when they added new ones. Re-alphabetized.
203 * One more pass at README.developers now that it's clear that my
204 previously-suggested one-line autoconf-file commit can cause
205 unnecessary local makes and an out-of-sync stamp-h.in file, but
206 would not cause problems for other people using the CVS files.
208 * Ken Hornstein's SASL patch was not integrated properly with
209 Ruud's new merged mts/sendmail code. Kimmo has since fixed nmh so
210 it compiles, but according to Ken, the SASL stuff still does not
211 work. Integrating a patch from him for this.
213 * Last pass at README.developers -- Kimmo's 5-step commit was
214 overkill. You only need 3 steps, since configure.in is the only
215 autoconf file with the RCS $Id keyword.
217 * Applied Kurt J. Lidl <lidl@eng.us.uu.net>'s $MAILHOST patch:
219 I have a small patch that would be nice to be included --
220 basically, it allows the usage of the "MAILHOST" environment
221 variable, without having to have HESIOD turned on. I need
222 this functionality for my environment, where we have identical
223 /usr/local on all my machines (so I cannot just hardcode into
224 the mts.conf file), and I have multiple POP mail servers for
227 Modified inc.man to reflect that along with "pophost:" and -host,
228 $MAILHOST can now activate POP mail inclusion as well.
230 * Fixed warnings from diff on first-time install of nmh. Also
231 added 'echo's clarifying the etc file installation activities.
233 Tue Jul 18 19:36:59 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
235 * Added the answer to Dan's question in README.developers.
237 Mon Jul 17 19:10:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
239 * Clarified and made some corrections to Kimmo's README.developers
240 changes (BTW, if anyone can explain why the RCS Ids are able to cause
241 problems with the dependencies, please fill in the explanation --
242 I never encountered a problem with the old single-commit method).
244 Sat Jul 15 23:13:49 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
246 * Add configure option --with-hash-backup so the backup prefix can
247 be easily changed from "," to "#".
249 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that it works with any make.
251 * Use mkstemp in sbr/lock_file.c.
253 * Commits of autoconf-related files apparently can't all be done
254 in one shot due to RCS Ids changing when committing -- updated
257 Tue Jul 11 14:18:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
259 * Clarified post.man and send.man for those not completely up on
260 SASL terminology. "SASL encryption layers are not supported for
261 SMTP" means that encryption is supported for the authentication
262 but not for the subsequent data stream.
264 Sat Jul 8 01:36:19 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
266 * Applied Ken Hornstein <kenh@cmf.nrl.navy.mil>'s patches
267 implementing SASL support for POP3 and SMTP. If nmh is compiled
268 with SASL support, using the -sasl switch on the inc, msgchk,
269 post, and send commands will enable authentication encryption for
270 SMTP, and both authentication and data stream encryption for POP3.
272 Sat Jun 10 18:37:59 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
274 * Merged mts/sendmail functionality into mts/smtp; switching between
275 smtp and sendmail delivery method is now controlled by mts.conf.
277 * If tsort cannot deal with loops, in addition to defining tsort as
278 cat, also define lorder as echo.
280 * Removed uip/popi.c from list of sources.
282 Thu Jun 08 19:36:57 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
284 * New dtimep.lex didn't parse day names properly. Fixed. Also
285 clarified ambiguous comments preceding day_map[] array (from old
286 dtimep.lex) that probably led to the erroneous cp++ being added.
288 Wed Jun 7 20:52:33 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
290 * Added one more mkstemp invocation to uip/spost.c (which was in a
293 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to clean up permissions handling
294 and error handling in uip/inc.c.
296 Mon Jun 5 22:10:07 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
298 * Use cat instead of tsort if tsort cannot deal with loops in its
299 input (which is the case for tsort from GNU textutils).
301 Mon Jun 5 21:14:36 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
303 * If lockfile is present, and its dotlockfile program is setgid,
304 inc does not need to be setgid.
306 Sun Jun 4 21:35:40 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
308 * Added autoconf test for Miquel van Smoorenburg's liblockfile
309 library, as found on Debian systems.
311 * Added liblockfile support to sbr/lock_file.c.
313 Wed May 31 7:19:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
315 * Fixed up dtimep.lex a bit. Added back memory options for AIX to
316 increase available memory. Took out %option noyywrap, which
317 wasn't understood by AT&T lex, as well as the -i
318 case-insensitivity flag.
320 Wed May 31 07:40:45 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
322 * Added a lint target to the Makefiles and a check in autoconf
323 to determine whether lint or lclint exists on the system.
325 Fri May 30 19:21:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
327 * etc/Makefile.in was incorrectly installing mts.conf.in and
328 sendfiles.in -- fixed. Generated sendfiles script was not a
329 dependency of the `all' target, and was incorrectly included in
330 the distribution. Changed the suffix for the backed-up previous
331 versions of the etc files from the ambiguous .old to .prev. Added
332 call to diff -- only keep the .prev files around if different from
333 the newly-installed versions (intentionally didn't redirect output
334 to /dev/null so you'll notice when your changed versions are
335 getting moved aside).
337 * INSTALL never documented the etc/*.old thing. Documented the
338 new etc/*.prev thing (including a note to watch for diff output).
340 * Applied Alec Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu>'s dropsbr.c patch:
342 In the map_write routine, a call is made to map_open and this
343 call is supposed to set the "clear" variable to 0 or 1,
344 depending on whether the map file is empty or not. In
345 mh6.8.3, this worked because map_open would set "clear" by
346 calling the mbx_Xopen routine. In nmh, the code for mbx_Xopen
347 was merged into mbx_open, but the interface for mbx_open
348 doesn't support the clear variable, so that functionality was
349 lost. The map_open interface still contains "int *clear" in
350 the prototype, but never sets it.
352 My patch eliminates "clear" from the map_open interface (I
353 checked to make sure that map_write is the only client of
354 map_open). Furthermore, my patch also sets the "clear"
355 variable properly at the beginning of map_write by calling
356 fstat(). This eliminates the bug in that the value of "clear"
357 being used later in the routine was just stack garbage.
359 Having a bad value of clear causes this next bug to be
360 triggered: The fp file pointer was being opened with fdopen,
361 but in two of the three switch cases it wasn't being closed.
362 In certain cases, this was causing packf to run out of file
363 descriptors if you attempted to pack a large folder.
365 Mon May 29 7:48:15 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
367 * Moved the date parsing routines from zotnet/tws to sbr/ (and
368 tws.h to h/). Updated all source files to reflect to new location
371 * Rewrote dparsetime (in dtimep.lex -> dtimep.c) to replace the
372 old zotnet/tws/dtimep.c, dtimep.lex, lexstring.c, lexedit.c, and
373 dtimep.c-lexed. It should now work with flex (although untested
374 with lex), and requires no sed-ing. For now, I have the lexed
375 version in the distribution, so that end-users don't need to worry
376 about running it through flex/lex. I have not added back support
377 for guessing the time zone when it's not specified.
379 Sun May 28 17:44:15 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
381 * Added autoconf check for getutent().
383 * Changed uip/rcvtty.c and uip/slocal.c to use getutent() and
384 friends. Since I can only check on Linux, please check if
385 this works on other systems.
387 Sun May 28 14:58:49 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
389 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to uip/scansbr.c for more
390 checks for write failures.
392 * Unlink temporary file properly in uip/rcvtty.c.
394 * Moved viamail from bindir to libdir.
396 * Changed sendfiles into sendfiles.in, so that path to viamail
399 * Added gzip support to sendfiles.
401 * Added References header to replcomps and replgroupcomps.
403 Sun May 28 14:39:31 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
405 * Fixed m_getfld bug which caused segmentation faults when
406 incorporating messages which ended in multiple linefeeds crossing
409 Fri May 26 13:21:59 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
411 * msh has been unable to show MIME messages ever since 1.0. Alec
412 Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu> tracked down the problem to the
413 -show flag being passed to mhshow. mhshow is equivalent to the
414 old mhn -show, so we don't need the -show anymore. Removed it.
416 Fri May 12 02:51:21 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
418 * zotnet/bboards is not longer built by default. Goal is to move
419 the assorted functions in zotnet into sbr or some more logical
422 * Moved zotnet/mf to sbr, and changed mf.h references accordingly,
423 as well as Makefiles.
425 Thu May 11 02:21:34 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
427 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that both SRCS and OBJS aren't
428 seperately and redundantly defined, but so that OBJS is a
429 pattern-substituted version of SRCS with suffix .c -> .o. This
430 should make maintainability easier.
432 * Added section to MACHINES indicating what platforms nmh is known
433 to compile and work on, just to give users peace of mind, or
434 something. This is by no means complete or exhaustive, so add
435 whatever you know works.
437 Tue May 09 20:38:04 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
439 * Alphabetized Shantonu's $pop_kinds output on configure's "pop is
440 enabled" line. If POP3 is the only kind of POP enabled, say so,
441 rather than just saying "yes" (which is ambiguous).
443 * Fixed four warnings in Shantonu's new getpass.c. Needed to
444 #include <stdlib.h> for calloc(), <unistd.h> for ttyname(), and
445 "h/mh.h" for adios(). Also changed ch from char to int to get rid
446 of "comparison is always 1 due to limited range of data type" on EOF.
448 * Added steps to README.developers saying to change the version
449 number to X.Y.Z+dev. Did a little rearranging and changed the FTP
450 dir from /home/ftp to /var/ftp to reflect Doug's new machine.
452 * Changed configure.in to use gcc -Wall even without
453 --enable-debug, to prevent developers compiling optimized from
454 introducing warnings, and to give end-users a warm, fuzzy feeling
455 as they (hopefully) see no warnings come out (except perhaps on
456 the lex output file) even with -Wall.
458 * Renamed getpass() to nmh_getpass() since the prototype for
459 getpass() varies from OS to OS, and we want to _always_ use our
460 version of the function. Fixed all the callers to use
461 nmh_getpass() and added it to prototypes.h. Semi-arbitrarily
462 upped MAX_PASSWORD_LEN from 128 to 256. buf was being calloc()'d
463 and the memory leaked -- should have just been declared as static
464 char array. Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the
465 copyright message, as this version has been changed significantly
466 from the BSD version.
468 * Added "nmh-local functions to use in preference to OS versions"
469 section to README.developers (currently just says to use
470 nmh_getpass() instead of system getpass()).
472 * Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the copyright message
475 * Added mts.conf.5 page per Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s
478 This happens on solaris:
481 windex entry incorrect: mts.conf(5) not found.
482 No manual entry for mts.conf.
486 % echo ".so man5/mh-tailor.5" > mts.conf.5
488 done in the man5 directory. We need to add 'mts.conf.5' as a
489 reference sourcing mh-tailor.5.
491 Mon May 08 23:51:55 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
493 * Doug informed me that the way I had restored the "lost" version
494 histories was wrong, because `cvs checkout's of old versions of
495 nmh wouldn't work properly. It occurs to me that this could be
496 fixed by simply deleting those tags in the new-location *,v files,
497 but oh well. I'm putting everything back to the way Doug
498 originally had it. To get the old version history for a file that
499 used to be in the top directory, you'll need to "blindly" do a
500 `cvs log' there (even though you won't have a local copy of the
501 file in that directory). `cvs diff' will no longer be able to
502 diff pre-move versions vs. post-move versions -- you'll have to do
503 a lot of manual gyrations with `cvs checkout' and then use `diff'.
505 * I had alphabetized the --configure options in the --help output
506 awhile back, but Shantonu added --enable-apop just under
507 --enable-pop. Put it in alphabetical order and clarified what
508 --enable-apop does vs. --enable-pop and --with-krb4. Also changed
509 --with-mts help line from "mail transport agent" to "mail
510 transport agent/service" so the 's' in "mts" doesn't seem to come
513 * Added two steps to "releasing nmh" in README.developers. After
514 making the tarball, it's a good idea to diff the tree vs. the CVS
515 tree to make sure no files got left out, and then to chown the
516 files so that they're owned by root, preventing a Trojaning attack
517 by a malicious remote user with a UID matching yours.
519 * Changed DIFFERENCES to say that RPOP is not currently supported
520 rather than implying it by saying that APOP, KPOP, and POP[3] are.
522 Sun May 07 18:16:43 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
524 * Imported NetBSD version of getpass() and made extensive
525 revisions for compatibility with programs that pipe the password
526 to stdin, such as exmh.
528 * Removed tests for system ruserpass() which sometimes gave
529 phantom positive results. Also, bext to use internal functions if
530 we ever want to change .netrc format to something else, or access
533 Sat May 06 08:28:09 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
535 * Restored lost version histories for those moved files by doing a
536 manual `mv' in the CVSROOT on mhost. CVS badly needs a `cvs mv'
537 command so that you can move files (without having physical access
538 to the CVSROOT) without losing versioning. Put MACHINES back at
539 the top level as it needs to be read before building. Fixed DIST
540 variable in {.,docs}/Makefile.in to reflect that and to add
541 missing entry for "INSTALL" file.
543 Sat May 06 13:13:07 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
545 * Re-cleaned up nmh documentation (by moving things to docs
546 subdir) and modified Makefile & configure.in to handle the change.
548 Mon Apr 17 21:28:40 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
550 * Scott Blachowicz pointed out that the configure --help output
551 for --enable-masquerade was misleading. Clarified.
553 Mon Apr 17 19:01:00 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
555 * APOP support can be compiled in to inc and msgchk using
558 * To access an APOP host, specify -apop on the command line
559 along with any -host or -user option.
561 Fri Apr 14 23:10:44 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
563 * Upped the version number to 1.0.4+dev until the next nmh release.
565 * Added a "releasing nmh" section to README.developers, while the
566 process was fresh in my mind.
568 Fri Apr 14 18:21:34 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
570 * Added new files README.developers, ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6, and
571 ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html to DIST target in Makefile.in.
573 * Released nmh-1.0.4.
575 Tue Apr 11 21:37:03 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
577 * Applied Brian Campbell <bacam@tardis.ed.ac.uk>'s mhn.defaults.sh
580 It appears that there shouldn't be quotes around the %s in the
581 iso-8859-1 charset entry; xterm passes the remaining arguments
582 to the program, quoting them means that xterm thinks they're
583 part of the program's name.
585 This %s isn't the same as the "Insert content subtype" one from
586 mhshow-show-* -- it doesn't come from MIME headers and is safe not
589 Sun Apr 09 13:03:59 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
591 * added check in fmt_compile() to handle a single-character
592 format string. fmt_compile() depends on having an array of
593 format characters with an empty item at the end. A
594 single-character format would cause programs using this
595 function to segfault because the algorithm used to decide on
596 the length of the array mistakenly created a single-item array
597 when the format string was one character. This eventually
598 caused problems when the program attempted to test item+1
601 Thu Apr 06 21:53:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
603 * Richard Coleman threw out a lot of old MH-specific files in nmh.
604 Much of the stuff, indeed, is not worth saving, but there are
605 nuggets that are very worthwhile, and should probably be added
606 back in. Most important, IMHO, are the MH change logs, as they
607 can help answer questions like "Why is this code like this?" or
608 "How long has this been broken?" or "What was this ever used for?"
610 I've added a new file to the nmh tree called
611 ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6. It's cobbled together from the
612 mh-6.8.4/papers/mh*/MHCHANGES files. I've re-ordered the entries
613 to go from newest at the top to oldest at the bottom to match the
614 ChangeLog convention. Unfortunately there are no change logs for
615 versions of MH prior to 3 in the MH tar files available at
616 <ftp://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/mh>. Also, it appears to me that there
617 are MH-6.6 changes that aren't documented in the logs.
619 I've also added ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html. This is
620 based on mh-6.8.4/papers/changes/mh-changes.ms. The nroff format
621 and its "catman"-type output are a pain to deal with, but I was
622 loath to throw away the formatting, so I converted the file to
623 HTML. The only actual markup in the body are the "<B>" and "<U>"
624 tags, and "<" and ">" instead of '<' and '>', so it's quite
625 doable to view the file in plain ASCII mode as well. Note that
626 some of the changes this file documents as having been made in
627 MH-6.8.4 may not be present in nmh -- Richard started with 6.8.3
628 and later put in certain 6.8.4 stuff.
630 Wed Apr 05 21:09:28 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
632 * Applied Eric Schnoebelen <eric@cirr.com>'s mhshowsbr.c patch
633 fixing apparent bugs in Dan Winship's new security quoting code:
635 Since upgrading, I've been getting the following errors
636 while attempting to process some MIME messages:
638 (1) Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
643 (2) line 1/10 (END)Segmentation fault (core dumped)
645 (2) appears to be due to the testing of an unset pointer in
646 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux(). (1) appears to be caused by
647 mis-quoting a filename being handed to the shell in
648 mhshowsbr.c:show_content_aux().
650 Resolving the pointer reference issue in
651 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux() turned up a similar mis-quoting
652 problem in the routine.
654 Tue Mar 28 16:17:39 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
656 * Applied Todd.Miller@courtesan.com's patch to dropsbr.c to
657 prevent core dumping on packf. Here's the note from his message:
659 Since sizeof(buffer) == sizeof(tmpbuffer) packf will dump
660 core on a file w/o a From line with a line >= BUFSIZ.
661 I noticed this because I had a junk file in my mail
664 Fri Mar 17 11:59:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
666 * wesley.craig@umich.edu did not document his previous KPOP patch,
667 so I did so, and asked him to check what I wrote. Unfortunately
668 he didn't notice my misunderstanding of his patch. I wrote that
669 if you #define POPSERVICE "kpop", inc and msgchk will use KPOP
670 exclusively, but if you leave it as "pop3", you can use Wesley's
671 new -kpop switch on a given invocation. Instead, however, -kpop
672 turned out to be necessary on every invocation, and a KPOP user
673 complained. Applied Wesley's new patch, which makes things work
674 like I thought his original patch did. After that, did one more
675 clarifying pass to the documentation in inc.man and msgchk.man.
677 Wed Mar 15 18:45:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
679 * When I fixed the long-standing makedir() bugs in January, I had
680 the code call strtoul(..., 0), which I believed to be safe as all
681 modes specified as ASCII constants in the nmh code started with a
682 leading zero (signifying octal), which I did as it would work if
683 internal constants were ever changed to hex. Unfortunately I was
684 unaware of the "Folder-Protect:" .mh_profile entry, which
685 mh-profile.man documents as an octal-only constant, with no
686 leading zero required. I've changed the strtoul() call to an
687 atooi() call and removed the misleading leading zeroes on the
688 ASCII octal constants in the code and man pages. Also changed the
689 "Folder-Protect:" example in the man page to something more
690 interesting than a duplication of the default.
692 * When I added my --enable-masquerade option, you'll note that I
693 didn't make it --enable-nmh-masquerade. I find the --enable-nmh-*
694 options too wordy and I'm not sure why Richard went that route.
695 I've renamed them to just --enable-*, but the old versions will
696 still work as well (they just aren't advertised).
698 * Added a line to the "nmh configuration" output saying whether
701 * Added a new README.developers file. From the file:
703 This file is intended to provide a few tips for anyone doing
704 development on nmh. Developers who learn things "the hard
705 way" about the nmh codebase (as opposed to local info best
706 encoded in a comment) are encouraged to share their wisdom
709 Currently the topics are "autoconf files" and "directory structure".
711 Tue Mar 14 12:41:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
713 * Applied, after some finessing,
714 Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s --with-smtpservers patch:
716 Here's a patch that allows you to add
718 --with-smtpservers=<some.host.name>
720 to the ./configure command line to set the "servers: " line in
721 etc/mts.conf. Around here, we use "mailhost" so that all
722 machines in the current domain just talk to a central machine
723 and nothing else runs an MTA. Now, I can use
725 --with-smtpservers=mailhost
727 instead of having to remember to fix this by hand (and often
728 forgetting to do so!).
730 * Inspired by Simon's patch, added an --enable-masquerade option
731 to configure. It will set the "masquerade:" line of mts.conf.
732 You may specify a subset of the three types of masquerading, like
733 --enable-masquerade="draft_from mmailid", or leave off explicit
734 arguments to enable all three types.
736 * Alphabetized the --enable and --with options in configure.in and
737 INSTALL and added documentation of the two new options to the latter.
739 * Added new dependency for mts.conf: Makefile. If this isn't
740 done, then when you reconfigure nmh with new values for
741 --enable-masquerade or --with-smtpservers, you'll fail to get an
742 updated copy of mts.conf.
744 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtimep.lex patch:
746 It seems that some MUA's didn't handle y2k very well - ELM
747 seems to be one of them, and Ultrix's DXmail (based on MH!).
748 I've got a few emails this month that look like:
750 575 Jan 00 Xxxxxx Xxxx 3603 ...
752 22+ Jan 00 Xxx Xxxxx 1771 ...
754 The first has "15 Jan 100" as the date and the second has
755 "19 Jan 00" as the date. The following works around this so
756 that scan, show, sortm, etc work ok.
758 I put Simon's patch under the control of a new #define called
759 FIX_NON_Y2K_COMPLIANT_MUA_DATES. There's some commentary in
760 acconfig.h about when you might not want to #define it.
762 * Created new dtimep.c-lexed with Simon's change using dtimep.lex
763 lexed on Solaris 2.6. Added missing dependency in
764 zotnet/tws/Makefile.in for dtimep.c: dtimep.c-lexed.
766 * Added scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD format files.
768 Mon Mar 13 21:32:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
770 * Applied Sullivan N. Beck <sbeck@cise.ufl.edu>'s mhshow-suffix patch:
772 With the patch below, you can add lines like:
774 mhshow-suffix-application/msword: .doc
775 mhshow-suffix-application/PostScript: .ps
777 to the mhn.defaults file to append the given suffix to a
778 scratch file. This allows applications which require a
779 certain suffix to run properly.
781 * Removed -force_html from lynx entry in mhn.defaults.sh (I
782 believe older versions of lynx lack that option) and added
783 "mhshow-suffix-text/html: .html".
785 * Modified username_extension masquerading to only use the
786 extended address on generated [Resent-]From: lines and SMTP
787 envelope From:. With Neil's original implementation, nmh's global
788 idea of the username was changed, which would result in inc lying
789 and saying you had no new mail because it was looking for a
790 mailbox called, for instance, "dan-nmh" (where username was "dan"
791 and $USERNAME_EXTENSION was "-nmh").
793 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtime.c patch:
795 There's a wrap-around problem that affects the implementation
796 of Zeller's congruence in dtime.c. This causes the day-of-week
797 calculations to fail for dates after Feb 29, 2000 (probably up
798 until some year far in the future).
800 Mon Mar 06 12:20:20 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
802 * Applied Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s msh.c patch:
804 I finally tracked down the problem in msh that was causing
805 errors whenever I tried to examine a 'mmdf' style mailbox.
807 It turns out that not enough memory was being allocated with
808 calloc(), causing memory pointers to be overwritten and
811 Fri Mar 03 16:07:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
813 * Changed the new "plussed_user" option to mts.conf's
814 "masquerade:" to "username_extension" after getting feedback from
815 qmail users, who use '-' as a separator rather than '+'. Removed
816 checking of $USERPLUS variable. Now check $USERNAME_EXTENSION,
817 which needs to include the appropriate separator for your MTA
818 ('-', '+', or whatever) as its first character.
820 Thu Mar 02 23:04:30 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
822 * Added a new "boolean" type to mh.h and TRUE and FALSE constants.
824 * Added a note to DIFFERENCES stating that it's out-of-date
825 (Richard was the last one to update it) and that we should
826 consider only documenting incompatibilities with MH there.
828 * Implemented (and documented) a third kind of username
829 masquerading: "plussed user" masquerading. This one was suggested
830 by Neil Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>. It's based on sendmail's
831 "plussed user" feature, where mail sent to <user>+<string> will be
832 delivered to <user>. When it's enabled, it's controlled by the
833 $USERPLUS environment variable. How is it enabled? Well, that
836 * Renamed the "mmailid:" setting in mts.conf to "masquerade:", and
837 changed it so that rather than being a boolean, it can be set to
838 any combination of the three values "draft_from", "mmailid", and
839 "plussed_user". Thus it is now possible to enable the three types
840 of masquerading individually.
842 * Fixed a bug with "mmailid" masquerading (dating back to MH?)
843 where if it was turned on, ','s would no longer be considered
844 GECOS field delimiters.
846 Wed Mar 01 23:30:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
848 * Changed the GECOS-field '&' translation behavior to be
849 controlled by the BSD42 #define rather than GCOS_HACK, since it's
850 apparently always appropriate on OSes where BSD42 is #defined, and
851 never appropriate on any other OSes. Thanks to Kimmo Suominen for
852 responding to my "What is this code here for?" comment in mts.c
853 and explaining the feature.
855 Mon Feb 28 21:50:29 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
857 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3+dev (ideally this should be
858 done by whoever makes a release tar file, immediately after doing
861 * Applied Paul Fox <pgf-spam@foxharp.boston.ma.us>'s scansbr.c
862 patch, posted to comp.mail.mh, which he says prevents loss of mail
863 when inc'ing into a full filesystem.
865 * Changed "echo > stamp-h.in" in Makefile.in to "date > stamp-h.in"
866 so that stamp-h.in will be different each time configure.in and
867 related files are changed, making it easier to check it in (which
868 is necessary to prevent unnecessary autoconf calls).
870 * My declaration of initgroups() in slocal.c to eliminate the "no
871 prototype" warning wasn't portable (FreeBSD 3.[23] choked). Now
872 use AC_EGREP_HEADER to see where initgroups() is declared, if
875 Sun Feb 20 12:17:15 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
877 * Fix security hole in mhshowsbr.c which allowed untrusted shell
880 * Released nmh 1.0.3.
882 Thu Feb 10 10:54:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
884 * Oops. %-escapes on mhstore lines in mhn.defaults.sh should not
885 be surrounded by single quotes, as a shell is not spawned when
886 just saving files, and the filenames will end up with literal
887 quotes embedded in them.
889 Fri Feb 04 12:29:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
891 * Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
892 got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
893 the -help output. One theory is that they were making reference
894 to the fact that clearly you know about the -help option since
895 you're currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea
896 to overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
897 supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
900 The other theory is that because you can say something like
901 "mhstore -" and get "mhstore: - ambiguous. It matches" followed
902 by the same list of switches you get with -help, they were saying
903 you can "sorta" abbreviate "-help" as "-". You don't get the
904 "Usage:" string, though, so it's not really the same thing.
906 Thu Feb 03 17:52:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
908 * Applied wesley.craig@umich.edu's KPOP patches. According to him:
910 The following patch fixes a problem with requesting a
911 service key for a machine that has multiple 'A' records. It
912 also makes "-kpop" a command line option, for users who
913 would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".
915 Did no testing of the new features, as I don't have access to a
918 * Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
920 * Modified INSTALL and config.h.in to reflect the new -kpop feature.
922 Fri Jan 28 17:39:24 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
924 * All %-escapes in mhn.defaults that actually expand to something
925 should be surrounded by single quotes. Added quotes to the ones
926 in mhn.defaults.sh that were missing them.
928 * Added check for lynx to write mhshow-show-text/html line in
931 Thu Jan 27 12:22:25 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
933 * makedir() had multiple bugs dating back to MH. An octal
934 constant was apparently being interpreted as decimal, resulting in
935 directories with no user read or execute permissions, making
936 nested directory creation fail. And there wasn't even an
937 _attempt_ to set desired permissions (e.g. from "Folder-Protect:"
938 in .mh_profile) on the outer directories of a nested directory.
940 * A second `make install' would always fail because the check for
941 whether mh_profile.5 existed was written incorrectly.
943 Wed Jan 26 02:22:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
945 * Added documentation on both types of masquerading to post's man
948 Tue Jan 25 22:58:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
950 * Doug's portability fix of my setgid inc autodetection had a
951 caching bug -- if you re-ran configure, uip/Makefile would be
952 corrupted, and installation would bomb out on OSes where inc needs
955 * Implemented a new kind of email address masquerading. Usually,
956 when a user writes a custom "From:" header in a draft, nmh uses it
957 rather than generating one. However, the user's true address is
958 used in the SMTP envelope "From:" and is revealed in the "Sender:"
959 header. Now, when mmailid is set to non-zero, the envelope
960 "From:" uses the address specified in the draft "From:" header,
961 and there is no "Sender:" header. This is useful when sending on
962 behalf of a remote POP3 account or when remote mail robots
963 incorrectly use the envelope "From:" in preference to the body
964 "From:". This processing has only been implemented for post, not
965 for the undocumented spost (which was already missing some "From:"
966 processing that post has).
968 Mon Jan 24 22:26:06 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
970 * Got rid of the rest of the gcc -Wall warnings that I didn't have
971 time for on 1999-07-15 (and, it would seem, some new ones people
972 introduced since then). The primary ones were the warnings that
973 default prototypes were being used for [v]snprintf() and
974 str[n]casecmp(). As of right now, there are _no_ compilation
975 warnings except on dtimep.c-lexed (at least under AIX 4.1.5 and
978 Sun Jan 2 23:42:18 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
980 * Move mhtest from bindir to libdir.
982 * Move sendfiles from libdir to bindir.
984 * Updated sendfiles manpage to reflect this change.
986 * Added documentation for -build and -file switches to repl and
987 forw manpages (patch from Peter Maydell).
989 * Fixed interaction between specifying -cc in profile and -group on
992 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
994 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
995 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
996 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
999 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1001 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
1002 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
1003 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
1004 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
1005 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
1006 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).
1008 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1010 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
1012 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1014 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
1015 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
1016 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
1017 caught again. This works for now.
1019 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
1021 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1023 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
1024 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
1026 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1028 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
1029 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
1031 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
1033 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
1035 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1037 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
1038 changes. Both need more cleanup.
1040 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1042 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
1043 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
1044 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
1045 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
1046 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
1049 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1051 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
1052 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
1053 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
1055 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
1056 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
1059 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1061 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
1062 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
1063 to a directory on another device with more free space.
1065 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1067 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
1068 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
1070 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1072 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
1075 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
1076 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
1078 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
1079 macros, regardless of platform.
1081 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
1082 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1084 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
1085 with x-conversions=gzip.
1087 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1089 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
1092 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
1093 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
1094 implicit definition of ioctl().
1096 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
1097 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
1098 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
1099 want to mess with them.
1101 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1103 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
1104 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
1106 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
1107 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
1109 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
1110 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
1111 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
1113 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
1114 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
1115 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
1117 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
1118 function initgroups.
1120 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
1123 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
1124 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
1127 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
1128 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
1131 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
1132 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
1136 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1138 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
1139 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
1140 preventing compilation on at least linux.
1142 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
1143 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
1145 Thu Sep 09 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1147 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
1149 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
1150 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
1151 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
1152 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
1154 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
1155 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
1157 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1159 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
1161 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1163 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
1164 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
1166 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1168 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
1169 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
1171 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
1172 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
1173 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
1174 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
1176 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
1177 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
1179 Sat Jun 09 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1181 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
1182 substitute it for mktemp if available.
1184 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1186 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
1187 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
1190 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
1192 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
1194 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
1196 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
1197 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
1199 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
1200 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
1201 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
1203 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
1204 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
1205 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
1207 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
1208 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
1209 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1211 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
1212 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
1215 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
1216 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1218 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
1219 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1221 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
1222 <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1224 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
1225 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
1226 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1228 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
1229 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1231 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
1232 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
1233 <elleron@servtech.com>.
1235 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
1236 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
1239 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
1240 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
1242 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
1243 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
1244 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
1245 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
1247 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
1248 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
1250 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1254 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
1255 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
1256 would not be changed.
1258 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
1259 one from the Apache web server.
1261 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
1262 (this should have been done a long time ago).
1264 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
1265 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
1266 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
1268 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
1270 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
1272 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
1273 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
1276 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
1277 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
1278 removes a bad race condition.
1280 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
1283 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
1284 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
1285 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
1287 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
1288 sequence information.
1290 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
1291 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
1293 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
1296 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
1299 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
1301 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
1302 interpret 034 as octal.
1304 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
1306 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
1307 mhstore, and mhbuild.
1309 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
1310 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
1312 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
1313 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
1315 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
1316 in the c_cefile structure when building.
1318 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
1319 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
1321 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
1322 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
1323 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
1325 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
1326 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
1327 and mhshow. Updated man pages
1329 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
1331 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
1333 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
1334 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
1337 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
1339 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
1340 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
1342 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
1343 header field information.
1345 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
1346 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
1348 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
1349 values when parsing a content.
1351 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
1352 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
1354 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
1355 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
1357 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
1358 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1360 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
1361 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
1363 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
1365 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
1367 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
1369 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
1371 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
1372 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
1375 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
1376 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
1378 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
1379 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
1380 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
1381 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
1382 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
1383 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
1386 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1388 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
1389 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
1390 buffer length checks for this parameter.
1392 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
1393 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
1395 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1397 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
1398 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
1399 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
1400 of the limits on the length of command lines.
1402 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
1403 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
1406 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
1407 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
1408 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
1409 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
1412 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1414 * Released nmh-0.27.
1416 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
1417 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
1419 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
1420 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
1421 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
1422 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
1425 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
1426 mhbuild returns an error.
1428 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
1429 rename the draft file.
1431 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
1432 use a global variable.
1434 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
1435 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
1437 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
1438 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
1440 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
1441 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
1442 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
1444 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
1445 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
1447 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
1448 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
1451 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
1452 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
1455 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
1456 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
1458 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
1459 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
1460 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
1462 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
1463 to new function output_content_folder.
1465 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
1466 new function output_content_file.
1468 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
1469 to new function parse_format_string.
1471 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
1472 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
1473 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
1474 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
1476 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
1477 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
1478 message/external file from ftp.
1480 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
1481 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
1482 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
1484 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
1485 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
1488 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
1491 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
1492 new file mhstoresbr.c
1494 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
1497 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
1498 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
1500 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
1501 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
1503 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
1504 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
1505 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
1507 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
1509 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
1511 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
1512 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
1515 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
1516 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
1518 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
1521 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
1523 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1525 * Released nmh-0.26.
1527 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
1528 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
1529 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
1530 is still the same (dashstuffing).
1532 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
1533 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
1534 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
1535 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
1536 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
1538 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
1539 But it is not on by default.
1541 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
1542 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
1544 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
1546 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
1548 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
1550 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
1552 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
1553 number of the "cur" message when packing.
1555 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1557 * Released nmh-0.25.
1559 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
1560 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
1561 uses the original name of the library.
1563 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
1564 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
1567 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
1568 list_content and list_debug.
1570 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
1572 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
1573 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.
1575 1998-02-27 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1577 * Released nmh-0.24.
1579 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
1581 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
1582 are given, that order doesn't matter.
1584 * Fix bug in seq_list.c when realloc'ing for
1585 large sequence line.
1587 1998-02-23 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1589 * Released nmh-0.23.
1591 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
1593 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
1594 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan
1595 content, decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary
1596 string). I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
1598 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
1599 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
1602 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
1604 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
1606 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
1608 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
1609 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
1611 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
1612 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.
1614 * Add note to MACHINES file that on Linux, configure
1615 doesn't find the functions sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
1617 * Fix configuration for machines that don't have (or find)
1618 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
1620 1998-02-11 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1622 * Released nmh-0.22.
1624 * Add a configure check for sigsetjmp. Add some conditional
1625 #define's in h/signals.h in case it's not found.
1627 * Added additional notes about -auto switch in mhn man page.
1629 * Added note about MM_CHARSET environment variable to
1630 mh-profile(5) man page.
1632 * Fix signal problem in mhn.c (change setjmp/longjmp to
1633 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp).
1635 1998-02-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1637 * Released nmh-0.22-pre1.
1639 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
1640 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
1642 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
1644 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
1645 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
1646 entry point for parsing MIME files.
1648 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
1649 source message on the standard input.
1651 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
1653 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
1654 rather than -rfc934mode.
1656 * Fix mhbuild, so that Content-Description and RFC-822 comments
1657 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
1660 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
1661 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).
1663 * Restore HP specific code to zotnet/tws/lexstring.c. Apparently
1666 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1668 * Released nmh-0.21.
1670 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
1671 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.
1673 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what transfer
1676 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what character set
1677 to use for text contents.
1679 * Removed old hpux specific code from zotnet/tws/lexstring.c
1681 1998-02-02 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1683 * Released nmh-0.21-pre2.
1685 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
1687 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
1688 header fields as per RFC-2047.
1690 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
1691 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
1692 spaces between encoded word are.
1694 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
1696 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
1697 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
1699 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
1700 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
1701 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
1703 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
1705 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
1706 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
1708 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.
1710 * Added support for %(decode) to fmtdump.c.
1712 * check_charset() now accepts US-ASCII as a subset of any
1713 ISO-8859-X character set.
1715 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
1718 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
1719 permissions, not write permissions.
1721 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
1722 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
1724 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
1727 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1729 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
1731 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
1732 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
1734 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
1735 message contains valid character set.
1737 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
1738 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
1740 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
1741 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
1743 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
1744 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
1745 between an encoded word and normal text.
1747 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
1748 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
1750 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
1751 as a RFC-2047 header field.
1753 * The command install-mh now recognizes the switches -version
1756 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
1757 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
1760 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
1761 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
1763 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
1764 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
1766 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
1768 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1770 * Released nmh-0.20.
1772 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
1774 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.
1776 * Changed the default format file for mhl (mhl.format) to
1777 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
1778 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
1780 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
1781 and the To: line was missing.
1783 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
1785 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1787 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
1789 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
1790 watch the POP transaction.
1792 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
1793 first, and use it if available.
1795 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
1796 first, and use it if available.
1798 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1800 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
1802 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
1803 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
1804 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
1807 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
1808 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
1809 returns the state FLDPLUS.
1811 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
1812 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
1815 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
1817 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
1818 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
1820 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
1822 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
1823 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
1825 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
1826 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
1827 message to which you are replying.
1829 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
1830 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
1831 making group replies.
1833 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
1835 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1837 * Released nmh-0.19.
1839 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
1840 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
1842 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
1843 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
1844 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
1845 to the end of the man page.
1847 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
1848 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
1849 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
1850 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
1851 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
1852 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
1854 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
1857 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
1858 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
1859 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
1861 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
1862 the next available number above the message number you wish
1865 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
1866 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
1868 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
1869 file sbr/seq_print.c
1871 * flist will now update the current folder.
1873 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
1874 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
1875 but now undocumented.
1877 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
1880 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
1881 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
1883 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
1885 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
1886 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
1888 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1890 * Released nmh-0.18.
1892 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
1893 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
1894 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
1896 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
1897 retains the public/private status of sequences.
1899 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
1900 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
1901 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
1902 previous public/private status.
1904 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
1907 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
1910 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
1911 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
1912 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
1914 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
1915 take option to determine whether it should get current
1916 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
1917 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
1919 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
1921 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
1922 wait for stopped processes.
1924 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
1925 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
1927 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1929 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
1931 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
1932 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
1934 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
1935 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
1937 * Change the way that memory for message status is
1938 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
1939 the folder/message structure. This required changing
1940 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
1942 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
1945 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
1948 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
1950 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
1951 the debugging output.
1953 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
1954 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
1956 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1958 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
1960 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
1961 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
1963 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
1965 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
1966 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
1967 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
1968 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
1969 in the given sequence.
1971 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
1972 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
1973 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
1974 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
1975 subdirectories of a given directory.
1977 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
1978 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
1979 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
1981 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
1982 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
1984 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
1986 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
1989 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
1990 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
1991 fields are now calculated at runtime.
1993 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
1994 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
1995 are calculated at runtime.
1997 Sun Nov 30 19:14:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1999 * Released nmh-0.18-pre2.
2001 * Add paragraph to man page for install-mh and to INSTALL file
2002 about checking for global mh.profile.
2004 * Renamed m_find() to context_find().
2005 Renamed m_replace() to context_replace().
2006 Renamed m_delete() to context_del().
2007 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
2008 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
2009 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
2011 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
2012 adding message to folder itself.
2014 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
2015 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
2016 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
2019 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
2020 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
2023 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
2024 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
2025 is the same as the direct smtp code).
2027 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
2028 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
2030 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
2031 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
2032 code to use it yet).
2034 Thu Nov 13 18:42:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2036 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.
2038 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never
2039 called with a value larger than 30 mintues.
2041 * Fixed race condition in rmm and refile, so that
2042 context is updated before external rmmproc is called.
2044 * Removed all the OVERHEAD code.
2046 * Move code to add message to folder from refile.c
2049 Fri Jul 25 19:39:29 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2051 * Did some rearranging of the internals of inc.c.
2053 * Make -inplace the default for anno, forw, dist, and repl.
2055 * Changed --enable-smtp to --with-mts={smtp,sendmail}
2057 * Created new directory mts/sendmail for direct sendmail
2058 interface (although it currently still uses SMTP).
2060 * Removed all the TMA (trusted mail agent) code
2062 * Removed all the TTYD (terminal access daemon) code
2064 * Removed all the MF (uucp filtering) code.
2066 * Removed all the code for BERK.
2068 * Removed all the code for stand-alone delivery (MHMTS).
2070 * Split the file mts/sendmail/smail.c into sendmail.c and
2071 smtp.c. Changed the name of the directory to mts/smtp.
2073 * Changed autoconf to use @sysconfdir@ for location of
2074 configuration files.
2076 * Changed #define in mhn.c from FTP to BUILTIN_FTP.
2078 Mon Jul 21 03:22:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2080 * Released nmh-0.17.
2082 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
2084 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
2085 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
2087 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
2090 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
2091 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
2093 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
2094 number of refiled message.
2096 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
2098 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
2099 for return value of wait().
2101 * Change configure to also check /bin for "more".
2103 Sat Jul 12 00:02:23 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2105 * Released nmh-0.16.

2109 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
2111 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
2112 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
2113 deal with binary messages, yet).
2115 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
2117 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
2119 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
2120 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
2121 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
2122 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
2123 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
2124 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
2126 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
2127 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
2129 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
2130 From MH-6.8.4 patch.
2132 * Fix double free of ctinfo in user_content when using
2133 #forw with single message. From John MacMillan (and
2136 * Changed -mhnproc switch for show, to -showmimeproc.
2138 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".
2140 * Added "mime" option to "whatnow", which calls the program
2141 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
2144 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
2147 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
2149 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
2150 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
2151 which used unsigned chars by default.
2153 Sat Jun 21 01:21:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2155 * Released nmh-0.15.
2157 * Added new form "scan.unseen" to distribution. It marks messages

2162 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
2164 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
2167 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
2168 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
2169 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
2171 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
2172 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
2174 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
2176 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
2177 they conflict with defines on AIX.
2179 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
2180 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
2181 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
2182 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
2184 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
2185 and put in own subroutine.
2187 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
2188 and put in own subroutine.
2190 * Moved code to remove messages from folder into own
2191 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and
2192 refile.c to use new routine.
2194 Fri May 16 06:09:31 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2196 * Renamed m_seqok to seq_nameok.
2198 * Changed m_setunseen, msh, mshcmds, flist, and scan to use
2201 * Changed m_seqflag to return the number of a sequence rather
2202 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
2203 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
2205 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
2208 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before
2209 adding message to sequence.
2211 * Renamed function m_setvis to m_setunseen, and renamed
2212 corresponding file in sbr.
2214 * Renamed function m_setseq to m_setprev, and renamed corresponding
2217 * Changed mark.c and pick.c to use m_seqaddsel and m_seqdelsel.
2219 * Added new function m_seqdelsel to m_seqdel.c, which deletes
2220 all selected messages from a sequence.
2222 * Added new function m_seqaddsel to m_seqadd.c, which adds all
2223 selected messages to a sequence.
2225 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,
2228 Thu May 15 00:53:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2230 * Renamed function pack_folder to m_packfolder, and moved it
2231 from uip/folder.c into its own file sbr/m_packfolder.c
2233 Wed May 14 23:38:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2235 * Changed function m_gmsg to m_readfolder. Renamed file
2236 sbr/m_gmsg.c to sbr/m_readfolder.c.

2245 * Released nmh-0.14.
2247 * Comment out configure test and code for tgetent to allocate its
2248 own termcap buffer when passed a NULL argument.
2250 Sat Apr 26 03:46:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2252 * Added new options `-checkmime', `-nocheckmime', and `-mhnproc'
2253 to show. Restructured code to handle options to various
2254 `procs' better. Deprecated `-noshowproc' option and NOMHNPROC
2255 environment variable.
2257 * Added new man page `mh-draft' which documents the
2258 draft folder facility in nmh.
2260 * Renamed fmtsbr.h to fmt_scan.h. Renamed fmtcompile.h
2263 * split fmtsbr.c into fmt_scan.c and fmt_new.c. Renamed

2267 * `send -help' wasn't showing the -(no)mime and -split
2270 Fri Apr 25 02:50:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2272 * Released nmh-0.13.
2274 * Changed mhpath so it doesn't abort if a message sequence
2275 such as "mhpath all" expands to more than 1000 messages.
2276 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
2277 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
2280 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
2281 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
2283 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2285 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if
2286 necessary. So `folders' can now handle more than 300 folders.
2288 Tue Apr 22 14:01:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2290 * Change configure to use a compile check to see if the tm struct
2291 has tm_gmtoff, rather than using egrep.
2293 Mon Apr 21 02:19:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2295 * Released nmh-0.12.
2297 * Had set_exists and unset_exists macros backwards.

2303 * Added documentation to mh-profile.man about the various
2304 `procs' (mhlproc, showproc, lproc, etc...).

2315 * Merge Linux patch sent in by Michel Oosterhof (original
2316 patch from bsa@kf8nh.wariat.org).
2318 * Document an undocumented MH feature. mhn -form mhl.null
2319 will suppress the display of the message header.
2321 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
2323 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c
2324 and mshcmds.c, rather than hard coding in /bin/cat.
2326 * Add mhnproc to the list of `procs' in mh-profile.man.
2328 * Add configure test for lorder and tsort commands.
2330 * Commented out the padding in the `msgs` struct in h/mh.h
2332 * Change m_gmsg.c to allocate elements to the `info' array by
2333 500 elements at a time (rather than MAXFOLDERS / 5).
2335 * Add note to man page for mhmail that zero length messages are
2336 not sent. Need to use -body "" to send empty messages.
2338 * zotnet/mts/mts.c : compare character with '\0', not NULL.
2340 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
2342 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
2343 folder/message structure when done with folder.
2345 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is
2346 defined even if message is missing "From " line.
2348 Mon Mar 31 03:37:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2350 * Released nmh-0.10.

2360 The "From " line is now removed from all messages.
2362 * inc now saves the date from the "From " envelope in the
2363 Delivery-Date header for all messages.
2365 * sbr/m_getfld.c: Clean up processing of Return-Path and

2368 Mon Mar 17 19:03:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2370 * client.c: cast iaddr to int before comparing return value
2371 of inet_addr with NOTOK.
2373 Tue Mar 11 04:38:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2375 * Grep test for signal names was failing on some OS'es because
2376 of missing tabs in regex.

2398 * ruserpass.c : removed conflicting prototypes.
2400 * rcvtty.c : Fixed rcvtty to obey terminal permissions granted

2403 Mon Mar 3 00:18:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2405 * rcvtty.c : Changed to use #define UTMP_FILE (if exists) rather
2406 than hard coded "/etc/utmp".
2408 * Released nmh-0.08.
2410 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
2411 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of
2412 locking database itself.
2414 Thu Feb 27 05:28:09 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2416 * Added slocal action `mmdf' to deliver to a file in mmdf format.
2418 * Changed the slocal actions `file' and `>' to always deliver in
2419 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
2422 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
2423 rather than mmdf format.
2425 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
2426 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
2427 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
2428 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
2430 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
2432 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2434 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
2437 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2438 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2439 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
2441 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2442 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2443 rcvpack so you can choose the preferred format.
2445 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2447 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
2448 can still easily change this in config.h).
2450 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
2451 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
2452 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
2454 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2456 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather
2457 than tzset and external timezone variable.
2459 Thu Feb 13 00:35:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2461 * Fixed typo in ruserpass.c in the variable toktabs.

2468 Tue Feb 11 01:29:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2470 * Add check to configure, so that if ruserpass, or _ruserpass
2471 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
2473 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
2474 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
2477 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
2478 built-in FTP client in mhn.

2491 * Released nmh-0.06.
2493 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
2494 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
2496 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
2497 many such machines around anymore.
2499 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
2500 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
2502 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
2503 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
2505 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2507 * Check lex generated file in zotnet/tws and use
2508 pre-generated version if necessary.
2510 * Released nmh-0.05.
2512 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
2513 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
2514 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
2515 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
2517 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
2518 be linked in one pass.
2520 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2522 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
2523 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
2525 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2527 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
2529 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2531 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
2532 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
2533 become the current folder.
2535 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2537 * Released nmh-0.04.
2539 * Define ospeed and PC in termsbr.c is OS doesn't have
2542 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2544 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
2545 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
2546 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
2548 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2550 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
2551 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
2553 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2555 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
2556 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
2559 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
2560 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
2562 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2564 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
2565 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
2566 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
2567 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
2568 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
2569 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
2571 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2573 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
2574 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
2576 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
2577 a file (currently need to specify full path).
2579 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2581 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
2582 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
2584 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2586 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
2587 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
2588 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
2590 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2592 * Released nmh-0.03.
2594 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
2595 .mh_sequence file existed.
2597 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
2598 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
2600 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
2601 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
2604 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2606 * Changed flist option -unseen to -[no]all. Cleaned up
2609 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2611 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
2612 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
2613 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
2615 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2617 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
2618 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
2619 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
2621 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2623 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL
2624 and allocate its own buffer. Borrowed from zsh.
2626 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
2628 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2630 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
2631 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
2632 directory from where the source code is located.
2634 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2636 * Released nmh-0.02.
2638 Wed Jan 1 17:41:52 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

2643 Tue Dec 31 03:07:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2645 * Changed code to use strerror, rather than using sys_errlist
2646 and sys_nerr directly.
2648 Mon Dec 30 02:15:25 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2650 * -compat switch from install-mh removed.
2652 * Changed the default POP port from "pop" to "pop3".
2654 Sat Dec 28 13:25:05 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2656 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
2657 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
2658 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
2659 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
2660 rather than in script.
2662 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2664 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
2666 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with
2667 macro defined on Solaris.
2669 Thu Dec 26 02:50:15 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2671 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
2672 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
2674 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
2675 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
2676 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
2677 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
2680 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2682 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
2683 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.
2685 * Fixed configure test so that termcap variable ospeed is
2688 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2690 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
2692 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included
2693 in mhn.c. Changed md5 to use memset and memcpy.
2695 Fri Dec 20 02:29:37 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2697 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
2698 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
2700 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2702 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
2703 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
2704 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
2705 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
2706 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
2707 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
2709 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2711 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
2713 * Released nmh-0.01.
2715 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
2716 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
2717 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
2720 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2722 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
2725 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2727 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
2728 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
2730 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2732 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
2733 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
2734 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
2735 script to find_program.
2737 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2739 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
2740 speed up -recurse option.
2742 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
2743 yet, but it compiles :-)
2745 * Changed default location for install to
2746 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
2747 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
2748 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
2751 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
2752 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
2753 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
