1 2006-03-30 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
3 * uip/sendsbr.c: with attachformat values of 1 or 2, only
4 generate Content-Disposition headers for MIME attachments, not
5 for the message contents themselves. Microsoft Outlook Build
6 10.0.6626, at least, doesn't show the message contents if they
7 have Content-Disposition.
9 2006-03-09 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
11 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c (decode_rfc2047): Don't close the iconv descriptor
14 2006-03-08 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
16 * (mh_strcasecmp): Rename the private strcasecmp function to
17 mh_strcasecmp. This keeps the newer gnu linker happy.
19 2006-03-05 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
21 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c: don't try to malloc 0 bytes if an RFC2047
22 encoded block is empty
24 2006-03-04 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
26 * etc/Makefile.in: use INSTALL_SCRIPT to install scripts;
27 this allows INSTALL_PROGRAM to be set to 'install -s' so
28 binaries are stripped on installation. Apparently the BSDs
31 2006-02-25 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
33 * uip/sendsbr.c: replaced st_mtim with st_mtime, that's what
34 it should have been. Added #include of h/tws.h to pick up
37 2006-02-20 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
39 * h/mh.h, h/prototypes.h, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, uip/send.c,
40 uip/sendsbr.c, uip/viamail.c, uip/whatnowsbr.c, man/send.man:
41 added -attachformat switch to send, to support alternate MIME
42 header contents when using -attach. See send man page for
45 * man/mhbuild.man: wrapped one appearance of "Content-Disposition"
46 with quotes, to be consistent with others.
48 2006-02-20 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
50 * h/utils.h, sbr/utils.c, uip/flist.c, uip/folder.c: Move duplicate
51 function num_digits into utils.c
53 2006-02-19 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
55 * sbr/m_draft.c, sbr/utils.c, uip/folder.c, uip/inc.c,
56 uip/mhstoresbr.c, uip/popi.c, uip/refile.c: Add create_folder()
57 function, replacing duplicate code during folder creation.
59 2006-02-18 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
61 * h/mime.h, h/mhparse.h, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, uip/mhfree.c,
62 man/mhbuild.man, docs/TODO: added support for an optional
63 Content-Disposition header in mhbuild (only). Its contents
64 are supplied between {}, positioned after the optional [], in
65 a mhbuild directive. If the contents do not contain a
66 "filename=" parameter, and the directive has a filename, or
67 something else that ends with "name=", then that will be used
68 to add a "filename=" parameter to the header.
70 2006-02-12 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
72 * docs/TODO: added RFC2183 to reference of RFC1806 for
73 Content-Disposition header.
75 2006-01-31 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
77 * uip/mhbuild.c, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, man/mhbuild.man: added
78 -nocontentid switch, to disable generation of Content-ID:
79 header in MIME messages. (Also added -contentid for
80 symmetry.) The default configuration of Microsoft Outlook,
81 Build 10.0.3416 in particular, doesn't see attachments in
82 incoming messages if there are Content-ID headers, see
83 http://home.cwru.edu/~wrv/eudoraoutlookfix.html. This allows
84 users to easily accomodate that by adding
85 mhbuild: -nocontentid to their .mh_profile.
87 2006-01-29 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
89 * bug 4360: uip/replsbr.c: remove trailing newlines from components
90 to fix bug with spaces at the end of Subject/References in replies
92 2006-01-18 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
94 * configure.in: use AS_HELP_STRING for formatting help messages
96 * configure.in, sbr/fmt_scan.c: add autoconf magic to support
97 old systems that don't support multibyte character sets
99 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: fix bug with insertion of newline being wrong if
100 the num function was used at the end of the format buffer
102 2006-01-17 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
104 * uip/post.c, uip/spost.c: in make_bcc_file (), use same
105 logic as in finish_headers () to detect whether there is an
106 existing From: line in the draft. If draft_from masquerade
107 flag is enabled, this allows the From: to be obeyed in the
108 Bcc, instead of the old behavior of always replacing it with
111 2006-01-17 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
113 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: more robust multi-byte/column support for field
114 widths, restoring right justification feature
116 2006-01-16 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
118 * h/aliasbr.h, h/rcvmail.h, man/Makefile.in, man/slocal.man,
119 sbr/lock_file.c, uip/aliasbr.c, uip/dropsbr.c, uip/post.c,
120 uip/slocal.c, man/mh-mts.man: remove remnants of code for MMDF
122 * uip/scansbr.c: multiply buffer size by MB_CUR_MAX so multi-byte
125 2006-01-14 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
127 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: Turn the PUTSF macro into a function capable of
128 handling multi column characters.
130 2006-01-07 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
132 * Remove sbr/strerror.c -- strerror(3) is defined in C89.
134 2006-01-06 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
136 * patch #3968: Move the add() function from its own file (add.c) and
137 into utils.c. There was also a duplicate add() function in mf.c which
140 2006-01-02 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
142 * Remove sbr/pwd.c file, moving the pwd() function into sbr/utils.c.
144 2006-01-01 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
146 * patch #3967: Create a mh_xrealloc function to prevent mistakes when
149 2006-01-01 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
151 * patch #3966: Create a mh_xmalloc function to prevent mistakes when
154 2005-12-24 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
156 * Bug #15285: Don't use $< in target rules in makefiles, as POSIX
157 says it's only defined in inference rules. (BSD make was expanding
158 $< to the empty string in the rule for building sbr/dtimep.c, which
159 causes lex to apparently hang because it's reading from stdin.)
161 2005-12-24 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
163 * Completely redo db library checking -- we now check for working
164 (include file, library) pairs rather than checking for headers and
165 libraries separately. We also now provide --with-ndbm=lib and
166 --with-ndbmheader=header options to configure to handle situations
167 where configure's autodetection fails.
169 2005-12-21 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
171 * Fix stupid accidental dependence on a bash quirk in previous
172 configure script change.
174 2005-12-15 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
176 * Improve checking for Berkeley db libraries: configure should now
177 find a suitable library on systems with new gdbm where
178 compatibility functions are in the gdbm_compat library, and on
181 2005-12-13 Michael Forrest <mef@computer.org>
183 * Fedora Bug #163760: sbr/context_read.c (context_read): Ensure that
184 the context is only read once.
186 2005-12-12 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
188 * uip/sendsbr.c (annoaux): Fix the call to annotate() fixing a bug
189 which prevented repl from properly annotating messages.
191 2005-12-07 Jon Steinhart <nmh@fourwinds.com>
193 * Fixed a bug where anno -append put the headers in the wrong place
194 if applied to a message that didn't contain any headers.
196 * Added a special value of "all" to the -number option that causes
197 anno -delete to delete all matching components instead of just
200 * Added new -preserve and -nopreserve options. Using -preserve
201 retains the original last accessed and last modified times on
204 2005-12-05 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
206 * Fedora Bug #174983: configure.in: Fix the AC_PATH_PROG default when
207 vi isn't found during build.
209 2005-11-19 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
211 * bug #14977: sbr/context_read.c: special case an MHCONTEXT of
212 "/dev/null" and don't try to lock it.
214 * bug #9228, debian bug #146449: man/mh-profile.man: make it clearer
215 that lower case environment variables (and in particular mheditor)
216 are internal to nmh and not intended to be set by the user.
218 2005-11-09 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
220 * sbr/mf.c: fix buffer overrun with absurdly long addresses
221 (only causes crashes if scan is run with '-width 16536' or similar)
223 * bug #7917: sbr/context_foil.c, sbr/context_read.c,
224 sbr/context_save.c: mark 'no context' with NULL rather than
225 "/dev/null" so we don't inadvertently try to lock /dev/null (which
226 takes up to a minute in some locking configurations and makes post
229 * patch #3913: uip/post.c: pass some globals into sm_init() so that
230 it uses SASL if necessary. (This bug was preventing Bcc'd emails
231 from being sent via SASL authenticated SMTP.)
233 * bug #9813: uip/rmf.c: don't crash if there's no Current-Folder
234 entry in the context file.
236 2005-11-13 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
238 * bug #7833: uip/Makefile.in: remove link to install-mh that caused
239 problems on some systems
241 * bug #739: Makefile.in: install target now depends on all to avoid
242 problem on case-insensitive file systems with the INSTALL file
244 2005-11-10 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
246 * Fedora Bug #172838: configure.in: Fix the AC_PATH_PROG default when
247 sendmail isn't found during build.
249 2005-11-09 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
251 * h/aliasbr.h: fix a non-ANSI prototype.
253 2005-11-08 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
255 * Simon Burge: acconfig.h, configure.in, uip/rcvtty.c, uip/slocal.c:
256 fix to handle getutent() on NetBSD
258 * INSTALL, README, docs/README.about, man/nmh.man: update most
259 references to the web page and mailing list locations
261 * bug #10230: etc/Makefile.in, man/Makefile.in, uip/Makefile.in:
262 Michael De La Rue: prepend DESTDIR to install locations
264 * configure.in, */Makefile.in, mts/smtp/smtp.c: replace obsolete
267 2005-11-06 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
269 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, sbr/fmt_scan.c, h/prototypes.h: fix various
270 possible overruns of the buffers in fmt_scan() which would cause
271 crashes if scan was run with '-width 16536' or similar.
273 * uip/popsbr.c: fix compile error which only showed up if nmh
274 was configured with --enable-apop.
276 * Debian Bug# 245932, RedHat Bug# 172388: uip/mhparse.c: don't
277 crash when handling a multipart MIME message with an invalid
278 Content-Type header (file handle was being fclose()d twice).
280 * sbr/Makefile.in: adjust lex command to work on both old and
281 new versions of flex.
283 * configure.in: add an AC_PREREQ() so autoconf 2.13 gives a helpful
284 error message and the Debian autoconf-version-guessing wrapper
285 doesn't guess wrongly.
287 2005-11-02 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
289 * Debian Bug# 320069: Nick Rusnov: uip/popsbr.c: fail when
290 kpop connection attempted without KPOP support compiled in
292 * Debian Bug# 320090: Nick Rusnov: sbr/Makefile.in: fix for newer
293 version of flex and remove autogenerated file from cvs
295 * patch #1155: uip/flist.c: speed up flist by skipping stat on
296 files with numbers as names
298 * docs/Makefile.in: include new files in distribution
300 2005-10-11 Bill Wohler <wohler@newt.com>
302 * docs/FAQ: fold questions into MH FAQ and distribute that instead
304 2005-10-05 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
306 * Harald Geyer: h/mh.h, uip/replsbr.c: back out previous change
307 (fork/vfork) and replace with code that handles the issue directly
309 2005-05-18 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
311 * Debian Bug# 143485: Nick Rusnov: h/mh.h: use fork instead of
314 * Debian Bug# 261592: Harald Geyer: uip/mhlsbr.c, uip/replsbr.c:
315 test/report error writing to stdout
317 * mts/smtp/smtp.c, uip/popsbr.c: correct SASL include file locations
319 * docs/COMPLETION-BASH: bash completion definitions from Debian
321 * patch #2863: savannah@brisammon.fastmail.fm: sbr/folder_read.c:
322 fix a bug affecting AFS where nmh was setting the READONLY flag
323 for a folder even when you do have write access to the folder
325 * Carl Mummert: h/fmt_compile.h, man/mh-format.man,
326 sbr/fmt_compile.c, sbr/fmt_scan.c: add unquote() function for
327 removing quotes from RFC-2822 encoded headers
329 2005-02-23 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
331 * use iconv to convert RFC-2047 encoded headers to the
332 character set used by the current locale
334 * sbr/folder_read.c fix Debian bug #202667: crash when a
335 message's filename overflows an int when converted
337 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
338 versions (from automake 1.9.5)
340 2005-02-21 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
342 * sbr/getpass.c fix bug where inc crashed on failing to reopen
345 2005-01-27 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
347 * Added -proxy option to inc and msgchk. Based on old patch
348 from Michael Richardson.
350 * On systems where it is available, use nl_langinfo to get the
351 character set if MM_CHARSET is unset
353 2005-01-21 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
355 * sbr/check_charset.c US-ASCII is a subset of UTF-8 so can be
356 handled directly when UTF-8 is being used
358 2004-12-17 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
360 * uip/mhmisc.c Fix -part option to mhshow/mhlist/mhstore to
361 find sub-parts of the specified part
363 2004-11-19 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
365 * h/prototypes.h, sbr/folder_addmsg.c, uip/mhstoresbr.c,
366 uip/rcvstore.c, uip/refile.c: Added mail directory argument to
367 folder_addmsg in order to make it possible to provide a path to
368 the ext_hook call that is mailpath-based. A problem existed when
369 a folder was a symbolic link and the pwd call would return the
370 path relative to the filesystem, not to mailpath. A new argument
371 was needed because there was otherwise no reasonable way to get
374 2004-11-16 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
376 * sbr/folder_pack.c: Fixed problem where the refile hook was being
377 called after a message was renamed so that it wasn't around for
378 the hook. The hook is now called before the message file is
381 * sbr/folder_addmsg.c: Fixed wrong directory for hook when
382 refiling with -src option.
384 2004-10-15 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
386 * uip/sortm.c: Fixed calling of external hooks.
388 2004-10-12 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
390 * uip/inc.c: Fixed another weird bug caused by the static
391 mailpath being overwritten.
393 * uip/sendsbr.c: Fixed bug that caused anno to mangle headers.
395 * sbr/lock_file.c: Fixed strange bug that prevented a lock from
396 ever being obtained if getting it failed the first time. The
397 problem was that the string of XXXXXX that is required by
398 mkstemp() was overwritten the first time through, and so all
399 subsequent times failed because mkstemp() failed. The fix
400 reinitializes the tmp file string.
402 * uip/inc.c: Fixed bug in which the static maildir was overwritted
403 if a format string was read from the profile.
405 * sbr/folder_delmsgs.c: Fixed bug that was producing an incorrect
406 path for the external hook.
408 2003-10-06 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
410 * uip/slocal.c, configure.in: db configuration fix for Debian; yet
411 another location for ndbm.
413 2003-09-30 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
415 * Fix 'pick' so handling of options "-list" and "-seq" are
417 * Fix 'inc' realloc error when bringing in more than 100 msgs
419 * Patches submitted by Nick Rusnov from Debian archive applied:
422 136976 - Handle binary content messages
423 143427 - mh-format.man typo
424 144098 - 'spost; should have same behavior as 'post'
425 w.r.t. mts.conf masquerade line
426 149745 - slocal ignores 'N' result of previous command
427 152728 - increase SMTP timeouts to conform to RFC 1123
428 The timeouts suggested by the RFC seem long
429 to me - but the RFC is still listed as active.
430 181867 - typo for nmh.man
432 2003-08-10 Jeffrey C Honig <jch@honig.net>
434 * Fix problem where parsing of address/date fields in fmt_compile
435 is optimized to the first instance. The first instance may be in
436 contitional code which will result in cached data to
437 be used. Instead, convert c_flags to a flags field from a boolean
438 and parse on the first use.
439 * Remove some unused flag bits.
441 Fri Jul 01 22:02:00 2003 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
443 * Applied fixes for configuration problems with Solaris and
444 systems with gdbm instead of db1 (includes bug #2024)
446 #578 - repl leaks umask
447 #1393 - sortm core dumps
448 #1650 - msh leaks file descriptors
449 #1730 - Double free() in mhfree.c:free_encoding()
450 #3356 - In-Reply-To header in default replcomps should be
452 * Revised man page for mh-format (bug #2031)
453 * New replcomps, etc, with Fcc: +outbox in default versions
455 Sat Mar 17 03:18:15 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
457 * Ken Hornstein's configure.in Cyrus SASL checks were doing
458 `x"$with_cyrus_sasl" != "no"' instead of `... != x"no"'.
460 Tue Mar 06 21:04:27 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
462 * Found some historical information about MH in RFC 808.
463 Supplemented it with info from Jerry Peek's MH book and added it
464 to docs/README.about.
466 Tue Feb 6 20:35:40 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
468 * sbr/dtime.c Use the same Y2K correction code as dtimep.lex
470 * sbr/dtimep.lex Restrict the parser to accept either
471 a numerical timezone offset, or a symbolic one (e.g. EST),
472 but not both (Since "2000 -400 EDT" might cause a double
473 subtraction of 60 minutes if both are parsed. One should be
476 Mon Feb 05 20:22:54 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
478 * -L isn't sufficient for specifying the path of the Cyrus SASL
479 shared library. That'll allow us to link successfully, but on
480 many/most OSes that won't allow us to find libsasl at runtime. On
481 Solaris, we need to specify the library path with -R as well (or
482 else the user will have to use the $LD_LIBRARY_PATH kludge, which
483 is considered harmful). This fix should be extended to other OSes
486 * Print whether we have SASL support in the "nmh configuration"
487 summary configure prints out.
489 * Say in README.developers to use `\date' in case anyone is like
490 me and has `date' aliased in their shell to use a nonstandard (but
491 subjectively more readable) format.
493 Thu Jan 25 21:15:52 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
495 * man/mh-chart.man has updated synposes of
498 Tue Jan 23 20:26:15 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
500 * etc/digestcomps tried to force dates into a
501 19xx when it's not necessary.
503 Fri Jan 19 21:22:08 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
505 * First round of manpage updates finished. They
506 are standardized on -man macros, with minimal
509 * man/tmac.h.in is no longer needed, since the
510 manpages do not depend on them anymore. Note:
511 strict "man" programs that didn't allow ".so"
512 sourcing outside the man tree will now format
513 the man pages correctly.
515 * man/vmh.1 is no longer built, since uip/vmh isn't
517 Tue Jan 9 6:01:22 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
519 * Finished manpages ali-prev
521 * Removed deprecated files from the repository.
522 Specifically, those rooted in zotnet/ and mts/sendmail
523 mts/mmdf. "cvs update -dP" will give a pruned directory
526 * Updated docs/Makefile.in to include README.manpages, and
527 uip/Makefile.in to include popi.c (which isn't being built,
528 though). This allows "make nmhdist" to create an archive that
529 is file-for-file identical to the current cvs repository.
531 Sun Dec 31 20:48:50 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
533 * Create docs/README.manpages, which details
534 the formatting rules I've been using.
538 Sat Dec 30 9:50:13 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
540 * Created a new file "DATE" to hold the date
541 of the most recent nmh release. This date will be
542 used in the manpages.
544 * Updated docs/README.developers to add the step
545 of updating DATE. Also, updated configure to
546 read in the contents of the file as the variable
549 * Started work on updating man pages, with only
550 ali finished so far. Changes: 1) no dependence
551 on an external macro file, 2) uses only
552 -man macros (although I may be mistaken in this),
553 3) syntax in the SYNOPSIS is a little more
554 in line with standard UNIX documentation, such as
555 bold flags and italicized parameters.
557 Sun Dec 24 10:06:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
559 * Updated INSTALL with information about the
560 --with-locking option.
562 * Fixed the Hesiod tests in configure.in. In
563 systems where res_send was in -lresolv, this
564 information was not being communicated to the
565 HESIOD_LIBS var. Now, if res_send is not found
566 in the default libraries, it's assumed to be
567 in -lresolv, and thus -lresolv is appended to
568 HESIOD_LIBS, which will need that to avoid
569 undefined symbols problems.
571 * Fixed the Kerberos tests in configure.in. New
572 versions of Kerberos 5 have renamed -lcrypto
573 to -lk5crypto (circa krb5 1.1 or thereabouts). The
574 new test tries to determine if -lk5crypto exists. If so,
575 this is a new krb5 system. If not, test for -lcrypto
576 and the rest of old krb5. If that fails, look
577 for a genuine krb4 installation.
579 Fri Dec 22 22:08:51 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
581 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in msgchk.man.
582 -snoop was documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
584 Fri Dec 22 23:42:16 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
586 * Made a new ./configure option called
587 "--with-locking" that allows the file
588 locking mechanism to be chosen there instead of
589 requiring a manual edit of config.h.
591 * If the option is not explicitly set, or an
592 invalid option is specified, "dot" locking is
593 chosen. Valid options are "dot", "fcntl",
594 "flock", and "lockf". We need a way to tell
595 the user that these are the valid options, and
596 change the flag "--with-locking" if it's not
599 Fri Dec 22 19:21:29 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
601 * Remove the lex-specific memory hints at the
602 beginning of sbr/dtimep.lex. We've already
603 committed to supporting flex only, since
604 lex does not easily allow us to parse a single
605 string, as well as other problems documented
606 below and on nmh-workers.
608 * Added a switch statement to configure.in to
609 test for Mac OS X. If this is the case, LDFLAGS
610 should not contain "-s" since the linker rejects
613 * Updated MACHINES to include Mac OS X Public Beta,
614 as well as Linux 2.4 running glibc 2.2.
616 Wed Dec 20 16:00:46 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
618 * Marked deprecated directories in docs/README.developers
619 as deprecated, with pointers to the new code location.
620 Eventually these deprecated directories should go away.
622 Tue Dec 19 19:16:37 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
624 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in inc.man. -snoop was
625 documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
627 Thu Dec 14 14:32:09 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
629 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
630 versions on ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/config, dated
631 12-07-00. This should prevent configure from failing
632 on newer operating systems because config.{guess,sub}
633 couldn't correctly identify them.
635 Thu Dec 14 1:30:44 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
637 * Fixed the circular dependency created when I moved
638 zotnet/mts to mts/generic and merged them into libmts.
639 mts/generic/client.c and mts/generic/mts.c are now in sbr/
640 (and thus in libmh), which makes libmh self-contained and
641 not depending on an external archive.
643 * All include statements now look for mts.h in h/. The
644 Makefiles and configure script have been modified so that
645 mts/generic is no longer built.
647 Mon Dec 11 22:08:07 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
649 * When Shantonu made the new libmts.a, he swapped $(MTSLIB) and
650 libmh.a in sbr/Makefile.in so that libmh.a comes first, but this
651 causes the build to fail on Solaris, because libmts.a has to get
652 ruserpass() out of libmh.a. Swapping them back to the way Ken
653 Hornstein's patch (which I applied on Jul 20) put them, with
654 libmh.a correctly coming second. If there are times when libmts.a
655 needs to come second, then it would appear there's a circular
656 dependency and someone (Shantonu?) did an mts merge incorrectly.
658 Fri Sep 8 01:36:23 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
660 * Took out bad time textual time zones like BST and JST.
661 I found them online somewhere, but am not sure if they're
664 Fri Sep 8 00:36:48 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
666 * Moved zotnet/mts to mts/generic. This code reorganization
667 makes the entire zotnet tree deprecated -- bboards is unneeded,
668 mf was was moved to sbr, tws was rewritten and moved to sbr, and
671 * Created a new static library called libmts.a used during
672 compilation which includes the generic mts code and the
673 smtp/sendmail code. This supercedes the functionality of the
674 old libsmtp.a and the remains of libzot.a.
676 * Updated header includes to reference the new location of mts.h
677 in mts/generic/mts.h. Also, update the configure and top-level
678 Makefile not to descend into zotnet. Also, they don't descend
679 into mts/mmdf and mts/sendmail (the sendmail code has been
680 merged into the smtp code).
682 * Added #include <h/nmh.h> to h/md5.h, since my compile was
683 complaining about implicitly-declared memcpy and memset, which
684 appear to be in strings.h. In any event, nmh.h should take care
687 * When doing a "make nmhdist", notice that the generated
688 snapshot does not include zotnet of the mts directories as noted
689 above. Since they are no longer compiled, and I don't see any
690 obvious code path to get to them, end-users should probably
691 not need them. If you think otherwise, turn Makefile generation
692 back on in configure.in and turn on recursion into those dirs
693 in the appropriate Makefile.in
695 Wed Sep 6 22:40:03 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
697 * Tracked down the problem in the new dtimep where time
698 zones were being radically misreported. It was because the
699 parser knew about military time zones (such as M or E) but in
700 some cases did not know about the textual representation of
701 some zones (like MET). When it encountered one of these, the
702 date parser misread MET as the military time zone T (well, first
703 zone M, then E, and finally T). I took military zones out, and
704 things seem much better. Also, the default behavior of parsing
705 time zones appears to default to GMT in the absence of better
706 info, which is less bogus than assuming the mail came from the
707 current time zone, which was the behavior in 1.04.
709 Thu Aug 10 13:22:13 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
711 * Decided that limiting the message number columns to 3 on my
712 scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD (to try to regain space taken by
713 extra date info) was ill-conceived. It's not that tough to get
714 past 999 messages, though I imagine it's rather rare to exceed
715 9999. Changed these to 4. Also put the "replied / encrypted"
716 column back in YYYYMMDD -- I've never seen it show anything but a
717 space, but that space is useful if you use scan, grep, and awk
718 (with the default field separator) to grab message numbers (I know
719 -- pick should really be used for these purposes...).
721 Mon Aug 7 20:11:09 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
723 * Modify umask set by mhshow to enable user execute bit, so that
724 viewers that create temporary directories (e.g., lynx) will be
727 Thu Aug 03 17:14:08 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
729 * TODO: Allow multiple simultaneous differing contexts, probably
730 each tied to a parent (terminal) process.
732 Tue Aug 1 10:48:05 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
734 * Makefile install rules should not look for generated files in
735 the source tree -- this will happen to work when configuring and
736 building inside the source tree but will fail when using an
737 external build tree. Fixed etc/Makefile.in.
739 Mon Jul 24 16:20:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
741 * When Shantonu wrote the new, more portable dtimep.lex, he left
742 out the #ifdef DSTXXX stuff for some reason. Not a good idea, as
743 that code is required for proper printing of numeric-offset
744 timezones that have daylight saving time. Without that code,
745 -0700 during DST gets printed as MST instead of PDT.
747 * Renamed DSTXXX as ADJUST_NUMERIC_ONLY_TZ_OFFSETS_WRT_DST and
748 added an explanatory comment by its #definition.
750 * Updated README.developers with the fact that zotnet/tws is going away.
752 Thu Jul 20 20:30:52 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
754 * Moved Kimmo's new "--with-hash-backup" to be output with the
755 rest of the --with options in the configure --help output. Also,
756 people did not preserve my alphabetization of the --with options
757 when they added new ones. Re-alphabetized.
759 * One more pass at README.developers now that it's clear that my
760 previously-suggested one-line autoconf-file commit can cause
761 unnecessary local makes and an out-of-sync stamp-h.in file, but
762 would not cause problems for other people using the CVS files.
764 * Ken Hornstein's SASL patch was not integrated properly with
765 Ruud's new merged mts/sendmail code. Kimmo has since fixed nmh so
766 it compiles, but according to Ken, the SASL stuff still does not
767 work. Integrating a patch from him for this.
769 * Last pass at README.developers -- Kimmo's 5-step commit was
770 overkill. You only need 3 steps, since configure.in is the only
771 autoconf file with the RCS $Id keyword.
773 * Applied Kurt J. Lidl <lidl@eng.us.uu.net>'s $MAILHOST patch:
775 I have a small patch that would be nice to be included --
776 basically, it allows the usage of the "MAILHOST" environment
777 variable, without having to have HESIOD turned on. I need
778 this functionality for my environment, where we have identical
779 /usr/local on all my machines (so I cannot just hardcode into
780 the mts.conf file), and I have multiple POP mail servers for
783 Modified inc.man to reflect that along with "pophost:" and -host,
784 $MAILHOST can now activate POP mail inclusion as well.
786 * Fixed warnings from diff on first-time install of nmh. Also
787 added 'echo's clarifying the etc file installation activities.
789 Tue Jul 18 19:36:59 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
791 * Added the answer to Dan's question in README.developers.
793 Mon Jul 17 19:10:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
795 * Clarified and made some corrections to Kimmo's README.developers
796 changes (BTW, if anyone can explain why the RCS Ids are able to cause
797 problems with the dependencies, please fill in the explanation --
798 I never encountered a problem with the old single-commit method).
800 Sat Jul 15 23:13:49 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
802 * Add configure option --with-hash-backup so the backup prefix can
803 be easily changed from "," to "#".
805 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that it works with any make.
807 * Use mkstemp in sbr/lock_file.c.
809 * Commits of autoconf-related files apparently can't all be done
810 in one shot due to RCS Ids changing when committing -- updated
813 Tue Jul 11 14:18:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
815 * Clarified post.man and send.man for those not completely up on
816 SASL terminology. "SASL encryption layers are not supported for
817 SMTP" means that encryption is supported for the authentication
818 but not for the subsequent data stream.
820 Sat Jul 8 01:36:19 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
822 * Applied Ken Hornstein <kenh@cmf.nrl.navy.mil>'s patches
823 implementing SASL support for POP3 and SMTP. If nmh is compiled
824 with SASL support, using the -sasl switch on the inc, msgchk,
825 post, and send commands will enable authentication encryption for
826 SMTP, and both authentication and data stream encryption for POP3.
828 Sat Jun 10 18:37:59 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
830 * Merged mts/sendmail functionality into mts/smtp; switching between
831 smtp and sendmail delivery method is now controlled by mts.conf.
833 * If tsort cannot deal with loops, in addition to defining tsort as
834 cat, also define lorder as echo.
836 * Removed uip/popi.c from list of sources.
838 Thu Jun 08 19:36:57 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
840 * New dtimep.lex didn't parse day names properly. Fixed. Also
841 clarified ambiguous comments preceding day_map[] array (from old
842 dtimep.lex) that probably led to the erroneous cp++ being added.
844 Wed Jun 7 20:52:33 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
846 * Added one more mkstemp invocation to uip/spost.c (which was in a
849 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to clean up permissions handling
850 and error handling in uip/inc.c.
852 Mon Jun 5 22:10:07 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
854 * Use cat instead of tsort if tsort cannot deal with loops in its
855 input (which is the case for tsort from GNU textutils).
857 Mon Jun 5 21:14:36 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
859 * If lockfile is present, and its dotlockfile program is setgid,
860 inc does not need to be setgid.
862 Sun Jun 4 21:35:40 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
864 * Added autoconf test for Miquel van Smoorenburg's liblockfile
865 library, as found on Debian systems.
867 * Added liblockfile support to sbr/lock_file.c.
869 Wed May 31 7:19:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
871 * Fixed up dtimep.lex a bit. Added back memory options for AIX to
872 increase available memory. Took out %option noyywrap, which
873 wasn't understood by AT&T lex, as well as the -i
874 case-insensitivity flag.
876 Wed May 31 07:40:45 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
878 * Added a lint target to the Makefiles and a check in autoconf
879 to determine whether lint or lclint exists on the system.
881 Fri May 30 19:21:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
883 * etc/Makefile.in was incorrectly installing mts.conf.in and
884 sendfiles.in -- fixed. Generated sendfiles script was not a
885 dependency of the `all' target, and was incorrectly included in
886 the distribution. Changed the suffix for the backed-up previous
887 versions of the etc files from the ambiguous .old to .prev. Added
888 call to diff -- only keep the .prev files around if different from
889 the newly-installed versions (intentionally didn't redirect output
890 to /dev/null so you'll notice when your changed versions are
891 getting moved aside).
893 * INSTALL never documented the etc/*.old thing. Documented the
894 new etc/*.prev thing (including a note to watch for diff output).
896 * Applied Alec Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu>'s dropsbr.c patch:
898 In the map_write routine, a call is made to map_open and this
899 call is supposed to set the "clear" variable to 0 or 1,
900 depending on whether the map file is empty or not. In
901 mh6.8.3, this worked because map_open would set "clear" by
902 calling the mbx_Xopen routine. In nmh, the code for mbx_Xopen
903 was merged into mbx_open, but the interface for mbx_open
904 doesn't support the clear variable, so that functionality was
905 lost. The map_open interface still contains "int *clear" in
906 the prototype, but never sets it.
908 My patch eliminates "clear" from the map_open interface (I
909 checked to make sure that map_write is the only client of
910 map_open). Furthermore, my patch also sets the "clear"
911 variable properly at the beginning of map_write by calling
912 fstat(). This eliminates the bug in that the value of "clear"
913 being used later in the routine was just stack garbage.
915 Having a bad value of clear causes this next bug to be
916 triggered: The fp file pointer was being opened with fdopen,
917 but in two of the three switch cases it wasn't being closed.
918 In certain cases, this was causing packf to run out of file
919 descriptors if you attempted to pack a large folder.
921 Mon May 29 7:48:15 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
923 * Moved the date parsing routines from zotnet/tws to sbr/ (and
924 tws.h to h/). Updated all source files to reflect to new location
927 * Rewrote dparsetime (in dtimep.lex -> dtimep.c) to replace the
928 old zotnet/tws/dtimep.c, dtimep.lex, lexstring.c, lexedit.c, and
929 dtimep.c-lexed. It should now work with flex (although untested
930 with lex), and requires no sed-ing. For now, I have the lexed
931 version in the distribution, so that end-users don't need to worry
932 about running it through flex/lex. I have not added back support
933 for guessing the time zone when it's not specified.
935 Sun May 28 17:44:15 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
937 * Added autoconf check for getutent().
939 * Changed uip/rcvtty.c and uip/slocal.c to use getutent() and
940 friends. Since I can only check on Linux, please check if
941 this works on other systems.
943 Sun May 28 14:58:49 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
945 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to uip/scansbr.c for more
946 checks for write failures.
948 * Unlink temporary file properly in uip/rcvtty.c.
950 * Moved viamail from bindir to libdir.
952 * Changed sendfiles into sendfiles.in, so that path to viamail
955 * Added gzip support to sendfiles.
957 * Added References header to replcomps and replgroupcomps.
959 Sun May 28 14:39:31 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
961 * Fixed m_getfld bug which caused segmentation faults when
962 incorporating messages which ended in multiple linefeeds crossing
965 Fri May 26 13:21:59 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
967 * msh has been unable to show MIME messages ever since 1.0. Alec
968 Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu> tracked down the problem to the
969 -show flag being passed to mhshow. mhshow is equivalent to the
970 old mhn -show, so we don't need the -show anymore. Removed it.
972 Fri May 12 02:51:21 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
974 * zotnet/bboards is not longer built by default. Goal is to move
975 the assorted functions in zotnet into sbr or some more logical
978 * Moved zotnet/mf to sbr, and changed mf.h references accordingly,
979 as well as Makefiles.
981 Thu May 11 02:21:34 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
983 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that both SRCS and OBJS aren't
984 seperately and redundantly defined, but so that OBJS is a
985 pattern-substituted version of SRCS with suffix .c -> .o. This
986 should make maintainability easier.
988 * Added section to MACHINES indicating what platforms nmh is known
989 to compile and work on, just to give users peace of mind, or
990 something. This is by no means complete or exhaustive, so add
991 whatever you know works.
993 Tue May 09 20:38:04 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
995 * Alphabetized Shantonu's $pop_kinds output on configure's "pop is
996 enabled" line. If POP3 is the only kind of POP enabled, say so,
997 rather than just saying "yes" (which is ambiguous).
999 * Fixed four warnings in Shantonu's new getpass.c. Needed to
1000 #include <stdlib.h> for calloc(), <unistd.h> for ttyname(), and
1001 "h/mh.h" for adios(). Also changed ch from char to int to get rid
1002 of "comparison is always 1 due to limited range of data type" on EOF.
1004 * Added steps to README.developers saying to change the version
1005 number to X.Y.Z+dev. Did a little rearranging and changed the FTP
1006 dir from /home/ftp to /var/ftp to reflect Doug's new machine.
1008 * Changed configure.in to use gcc -Wall even without
1009 --enable-debug, to prevent developers compiling optimized from
1010 introducing warnings, and to give end-users a warm, fuzzy feeling
1011 as they (hopefully) see no warnings come out (except perhaps on
1012 the lex output file) even with -Wall.
1014 * Renamed getpass() to nmh_getpass() since the prototype for
1015 getpass() varies from OS to OS, and we want to _always_ use our
1016 version of the function. Fixed all the callers to use
1017 nmh_getpass() and added it to prototypes.h. Semi-arbitrarily
1018 upped MAX_PASSWORD_LEN from 128 to 256. buf was being calloc()'d
1019 and the memory leaked -- should have just been declared as static
1020 char array. Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the
1021 copyright message, as this version has been changed significantly
1022 from the BSD version.
1024 * Added "nmh-local functions to use in preference to OS versions"
1025 section to README.developers (currently just says to use
1026 nmh_getpass() instead of system getpass()).
1028 * Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the copyright message
1029 in ruserpass.c also.
1031 * Added mts.conf.5 page per Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s
1034 This happens on solaris:
1037 windex entry incorrect: mts.conf(5) not found.
1038 No manual entry for mts.conf.
1042 % echo ".so man5/mh-tailor.5" > mts.conf.5
1044 done in the man5 directory. We need to add 'mts.conf.5' as a
1045 reference sourcing mh-tailor.5.
1047 Mon May 08 23:51:55 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1049 * Doug informed me that the way I had restored the "lost" version
1050 histories was wrong, because `cvs checkout's of old versions of
1051 nmh wouldn't work properly. It occurs to me that this could be
1052 fixed by simply deleting those tags in the new-location *,v files,
1053 but oh well. I'm putting everything back to the way Doug
1054 originally had it. To get the old version history for a file that
1055 used to be in the top directory, you'll need to "blindly" do a
1056 `cvs log' there (even though you won't have a local copy of the
1057 file in that directory). `cvs diff' will no longer be able to
1058 diff pre-move versions vs. post-move versions -- you'll have to do
1059 a lot of manual gyrations with `cvs checkout' and then use `diff'.
1061 * I had alphabetized the --configure options in the --help output
1062 awhile back, but Shantonu added --enable-apop just under
1063 --enable-pop. Put it in alphabetical order and clarified what
1064 --enable-apop does vs. --enable-pop and --with-krb4. Also changed
1065 --with-mts help line from "mail transport agent" to "mail
1066 transport agent/service" so the 's' in "mts" doesn't seem to come
1069 * Added two steps to "releasing nmh" in README.developers. After
1070 making the tarball, it's a good idea to diff the tree vs. the CVS
1071 tree to make sure no files got left out, and then to chown the
1072 files so that they're owned by root, preventing a Trojaning attack
1073 by a malicious remote user with a UID matching yours.
1075 * Changed DIFFERENCES to say that RPOP is not currently supported
1076 rather than implying it by saying that APOP, KPOP, and POP[3] are.
1078 Sun May 07 18:16:43 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1080 * Imported NetBSD version of getpass() and made extensive
1081 revisions for compatibility with programs that pipe the password
1082 to stdin, such as exmh.
1084 * Removed tests for system ruserpass() which sometimes gave
1085 phantom positive results. Also, bext to use internal functions if
1086 we ever want to change .netrc format to something else, or access
1089 Sat May 06 08:28:09 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1091 * Restored lost version histories for those moved files by doing a
1092 manual `mv' in the CVSROOT on mhost. CVS badly needs a `cvs mv'
1093 command so that you can move files (without having physical access
1094 to the CVSROOT) without losing versioning. Put MACHINES back at
1095 the top level as it needs to be read before building. Fixed DIST
1096 variable in {.,docs}/Makefile.in to reflect that and to add
1097 missing entry for "INSTALL" file.
1099 Sat May 06 13:13:07 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1101 * Re-cleaned up nmh documentation (by moving things to docs
1102 subdir) and modified Makefile & configure.in to handle the change.
1104 Mon Apr 17 21:28:40 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1106 * Scott Blachowicz pointed out that the configure --help output
1107 for --enable-masquerade was misleading. Clarified.
1109 Mon Apr 17 19:01:00 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1111 * APOP support can be compiled in to inc and msgchk using
1114 * To access an APOP host, specify -apop on the command line
1115 along with any -host or -user option.
1117 Fri Apr 14 23:10:44 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1119 * Upped the version number to 1.0.4+dev until the next nmh release.
1121 * Added a "releasing nmh" section to README.developers, while the
1122 process was fresh in my mind.
1124 Fri Apr 14 18:21:34 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1126 * Added new files README.developers, ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6, and
1127 ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html to DIST target in Makefile.in.
1129 * Released nmh-1.0.4.
1131 Tue Apr 11 21:37:03 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1133 * Applied Brian Campbell <bacam@tardis.ed.ac.uk>'s mhn.defaults.sh
1136 It appears that there shouldn't be quotes around the %s in the
1137 iso-8859-1 charset entry; xterm passes the remaining arguments
1138 to the program, quoting them means that xterm thinks they're
1139 part of the program's name.
1141 This %s isn't the same as the "Insert content subtype" one from
1142 mhshow-show-* -- it doesn't come from MIME headers and is safe not
1145 Sun Apr 09 13:03:59 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1147 * added check in fmt_compile() to handle a single-character
1148 format string. fmt_compile() depends on having an array of
1149 format characters with an empty item at the end. A
1150 single-character format would cause programs using this
1151 function to segfault because the algorithm used to decide on
1152 the length of the array mistakenly created a single-item array
1153 when the format string was one character. This eventually
1154 caused problems when the program attempted to test item+1
1157 Thu Apr 06 21:53:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1159 * Richard Coleman threw out a lot of old MH-specific files in nmh.
1160 Much of the stuff, indeed, is not worth saving, but there are
1161 nuggets that are very worthwhile, and should probably be added
1162 back in. Most important, IMHO, are the MH change logs, as they
1163 can help answer questions like "Why is this code like this?" or
1164 "How long has this been broken?" or "What was this ever used for?"
1166 I've added a new file to the nmh tree called
1167 ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6. It's cobbled together from the
1168 mh-6.8.4/papers/mh*/MHCHANGES files. I've re-ordered the entries
1169 to go from newest at the top to oldest at the bottom to match the
1170 ChangeLog convention. Unfortunately there are no change logs for
1171 versions of MH prior to 3 in the MH tar files available at
1172 <ftp://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/mh>. Also, it appears to me that there
1173 are MH-6.6 changes that aren't documented in the logs.
1175 I've also added ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html. This is
1176 based on mh-6.8.4/papers/changes/mh-changes.ms. The nroff format
1177 and its "catman"-type output are a pain to deal with, but I was
1178 loath to throw away the formatting, so I converted the file to
1179 HTML. The only actual markup in the body are the "<B>" and "<U>"
1180 tags, and "<" and ">" instead of '<' and '>', so it's quite
1181 doable to view the file in plain ASCII mode as well. Note that
1182 some of the changes this file documents as having been made in
1183 MH-6.8.4 may not be present in nmh -- Richard started with 6.8.3
1184 and later put in certain 6.8.4 stuff.
1186 Wed Apr 05 21:09:28 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1188 * Applied Eric Schnoebelen <eric@cirr.com>'s mhshowsbr.c patch
1189 fixing apparent bugs in Dan Winship's new security quoting code:
1191 Since upgrading, I've been getting the following errors
1192 while attempting to process some MIME messages:
1194 (1) Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
1199 (2) line 1/10 (END)Segmentation fault (core dumped)
1201 (2) appears to be due to the testing of an unset pointer in
1202 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux(). (1) appears to be caused by
1203 mis-quoting a filename being handed to the shell in
1204 mhshowsbr.c:show_content_aux().
1206 Resolving the pointer reference issue in
1207 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux() turned up a similar mis-quoting
1208 problem in the routine.
1210 Tue Mar 28 16:17:39 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1212 * Applied Todd.Miller@courtesan.com's patch to dropsbr.c to
1213 prevent core dumping on packf. Here's the note from his message:
1215 Since sizeof(buffer) == sizeof(tmpbuffer) packf will dump
1216 core on a file w/o a From line with a line >= BUFSIZ.
1217 I noticed this because I had a junk file in my mail
1220 Fri Mar 17 11:59:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1222 * wesley.craig@umich.edu did not document his previous KPOP patch,
1223 so I did so, and asked him to check what I wrote. Unfortunately
1224 he didn't notice my misunderstanding of his patch. I wrote that
1225 if you #define POPSERVICE "kpop", inc and msgchk will use KPOP
1226 exclusively, but if you leave it as "pop3", you can use Wesley's
1227 new -kpop switch on a given invocation. Instead, however, -kpop
1228 turned out to be necessary on every invocation, and a KPOP user
1229 complained. Applied Wesley's new patch, which makes things work
1230 like I thought his original patch did. After that, did one more
1231 clarifying pass to the documentation in inc.man and msgchk.man.
1233 Wed Mar 15 18:45:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1235 * When I fixed the long-standing makedir() bugs in January, I had
1236 the code call strtoul(..., 0), which I believed to be safe as all
1237 modes specified as ASCII constants in the nmh code started with a
1238 leading zero (signifying octal), which I did as it would work if
1239 internal constants were ever changed to hex. Unfortunately I was
1240 unaware of the "Folder-Protect:" .mh_profile entry, which
1241 mh-profile.man documents as an octal-only constant, with no
1242 leading zero required. I've changed the strtoul() call to an
1243 atooi() call and removed the misleading leading zeroes on the
1244 ASCII octal constants in the code and man pages. Also changed the
1245 "Folder-Protect:" example in the man page to something more
1246 interesting than a duplication of the default.
1248 * When I added my --enable-masquerade option, you'll note that I
1249 didn't make it --enable-nmh-masquerade. I find the --enable-nmh-*
1250 options too wordy and I'm not sure why Richard went that route.
1251 I've renamed them to just --enable-*, but the old versions will
1252 still work as well (they just aren't advertised).
1254 * Added a line to the "nmh configuration" output saying whether
1257 * Added a new README.developers file. From the file:
1259 This file is intended to provide a few tips for anyone doing
1260 development on nmh. Developers who learn things "the hard
1261 way" about the nmh codebase (as opposed to local info best
1262 encoded in a comment) are encouraged to share their wisdom
1265 Currently the topics are "autoconf files" and "directory structure".
1267 Tue Mar 14 12:41:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1269 * Applied, after some finessing,
1270 Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s --with-smtpservers patch:
1272 Here's a patch that allows you to add
1274 --with-smtpservers=<some.host.name>
1276 to the ./configure command line to set the "servers: " line in
1277 etc/mts.conf. Around here, we use "mailhost" so that all
1278 machines in the current domain just talk to a central machine
1279 and nothing else runs an MTA. Now, I can use
1281 --with-smtpservers=mailhost
1283 instead of having to remember to fix this by hand (and often
1284 forgetting to do so!).
1286 * Inspired by Simon's patch, added an --enable-masquerade option
1287 to configure. It will set the "masquerade:" line of mts.conf.
1288 You may specify a subset of the three types of masquerading, like
1289 --enable-masquerade="draft_from mmailid", or leave off explicit
1290 arguments to enable all three types.
1292 * Alphabetized the --enable and --with options in configure.in and
1293 INSTALL and added documentation of the two new options to the latter.
1295 * Added new dependency for mts.conf: Makefile. If this isn't
1296 done, then when you reconfigure nmh with new values for
1297 --enable-masquerade or --with-smtpservers, you'll fail to get an
1298 updated copy of mts.conf.
1300 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtimep.lex patch:
1302 It seems that some MUA's didn't handle y2k very well - ELM
1303 seems to be one of them, and Ultrix's DXmail (based on MH!).
1304 I've got a few emails this month that look like:
1306 575 Jan 00 Xxxxxx Xxxx 3603 ...
1308 22+ Jan 00 Xxx Xxxxx 1771 ...
1310 The first has "15 Jan 100" as the date and the second has
1311 "19 Jan 00" as the date. The following works around this so
1312 that scan, show, sortm, etc work ok.
1314 I put Simon's patch under the control of a new #define called
1315 FIX_NON_Y2K_COMPLIANT_MUA_DATES. There's some commentary in
1316 acconfig.h about when you might not want to #define it.
1318 * Created new dtimep.c-lexed with Simon's change using dtimep.lex
1319 lexed on Solaris 2.6. Added missing dependency in
1320 zotnet/tws/Makefile.in for dtimep.c: dtimep.c-lexed.
1322 * Added scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD format files.
1324 Mon Mar 13 21:32:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1326 * Applied Sullivan N. Beck <sbeck@cise.ufl.edu>'s mhshow-suffix patch:
1328 With the patch below, you can add lines like:
1330 mhshow-suffix-application/msword: .doc
1331 mhshow-suffix-application/PostScript: .ps
1333 to the mhn.defaults file to append the given suffix to a
1334 scratch file. This allows applications which require a
1335 certain suffix to run properly.
1337 * Removed -force_html from lynx entry in mhn.defaults.sh (I
1338 believe older versions of lynx lack that option) and added
1339 "mhshow-suffix-text/html: .html".
1341 * Modified username_extension masquerading to only use the
1342 extended address on generated [Resent-]From: lines and SMTP
1343 envelope From:. With Neil's original implementation, nmh's global
1344 idea of the username was changed, which would result in inc lying
1345 and saying you had no new mail because it was looking for a
1346 mailbox called, for instance, "dan-nmh" (where username was "dan"
1347 and $USERNAME_EXTENSION was "-nmh").
1349 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtime.c patch:
1351 There's a wrap-around problem that affects the implementation
1352 of Zeller's congruence in dtime.c. This causes the day-of-week
1353 calculations to fail for dates after Feb 29, 2000 (probably up
1354 until some year far in the future).
1356 Mon Mar 06 12:20:20 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1358 * Applied Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s msh.c patch:
1360 I finally tracked down the problem in msh that was causing
1361 errors whenever I tried to examine a 'mmdf' style mailbox.
1363 It turns out that not enough memory was being allocated with
1364 calloc(), causing memory pointers to be overwritten and
1367 Fri Mar 03 16:07:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1369 * Changed the new "plussed_user" option to mts.conf's
1370 "masquerade:" to "username_extension" after getting feedback from
1371 qmail users, who use '-' as a separator rather than '+'. Removed
1372 checking of $USERPLUS variable. Now check $USERNAME_EXTENSION,
1373 which needs to include the appropriate separator for your MTA
1374 ('-', '+', or whatever) as its first character.
1376 Thu Mar 02 23:04:30 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1378 * Added a new "boolean" type to mh.h and TRUE and FALSE constants.
1380 * Added a note to DIFFERENCES stating that it's out-of-date
1381 (Richard was the last one to update it) and that we should
1382 consider only documenting incompatibilities with MH there.
1384 * Implemented (and documented) a third kind of username
1385 masquerading: "plussed user" masquerading. This one was suggested
1386 by Neil Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>. It's based on sendmail's
1387 "plussed user" feature, where mail sent to <user>+<string> will be
1388 delivered to <user>. When it's enabled, it's controlled by the
1389 $USERPLUS environment variable. How is it enabled? Well, that
1392 * Renamed the "mmailid:" setting in mts.conf to "masquerade:", and
1393 changed it so that rather than being a boolean, it can be set to
1394 any combination of the three values "draft_from", "mmailid", and
1395 "plussed_user". Thus it is now possible to enable the three types
1396 of masquerading individually.
1398 * Fixed a bug with "mmailid" masquerading (dating back to MH?)
1399 where if it was turned on, ','s would no longer be considered
1400 GECOS field delimiters.
1402 Wed Mar 01 23:30:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1404 * Changed the GECOS-field '&' translation behavior to be
1405 controlled by the BSD42 #define rather than GCOS_HACK, since it's
1406 apparently always appropriate on OSes where BSD42 is #defined, and
1407 never appropriate on any other OSes. Thanks to Kimmo Suominen for
1408 responding to my "What is this code here for?" comment in mts.c
1409 and explaining the feature.
1411 Mon Feb 28 21:50:29 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1413 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3+dev (ideally this should be
1414 done by whoever makes a release tar file, immediately after doing
1417 * Applied Paul Fox <pgf-spam@foxharp.boston.ma.us>'s scansbr.c
1418 patch, posted to comp.mail.mh, which he says prevents loss of mail
1419 when inc'ing into a full filesystem.
1421 * Changed "echo > stamp-h.in" in Makefile.in to "date > stamp-h.in"
1422 so that stamp-h.in will be different each time configure.in and
1423 related files are changed, making it easier to check it in (which
1424 is necessary to prevent unnecessary autoconf calls).
1426 * My declaration of initgroups() in slocal.c to eliminate the "no
1427 prototype" warning wasn't portable (FreeBSD 3.[23] choked). Now
1428 use AC_EGREP_HEADER to see where initgroups() is declared, if
1431 Sun Feb 20 12:17:15 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1433 * Fix security hole in mhshowsbr.c which allowed untrusted shell
1434 code to be executed.
1436 * Released nmh 1.0.3.
1438 Thu Feb 10 10:54:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1440 * Oops. %-escapes on mhstore lines in mhn.defaults.sh should not
1441 be surrounded by single quotes, as a shell is not spawned when
1442 just saving files, and the filenames will end up with literal
1443 quotes embedded in them.
1445 Fri Feb 04 12:29:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1447 * Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
1448 got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
1449 the -help output. One theory is that they were making reference
1450 to the fact that clearly you know about the -help option since
1451 you're currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea
1452 to overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
1453 supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
1456 The other theory is that because you can say something like
1457 "mhstore -" and get "mhstore: - ambiguous. It matches" followed
1458 by the same list of switches you get with -help, they were saying
1459 you can "sorta" abbreviate "-help" as "-". You don't get the
1460 "Usage:" string, though, so it's not really the same thing.
1462 Thu Feb 03 17:52:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1464 * Applied wesley.craig@umich.edu's KPOP patches. According to him:
1466 The following patch fixes a problem with requesting a
1467 service key for a machine that has multiple 'A' records. It
1468 also makes "-kpop" a command line option, for users who
1469 would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".
1471 Did no testing of the new features, as I don't have access to a
1474 * Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
1476 * Modified INSTALL and config.h.in to reflect the new -kpop feature.
1478 Fri Jan 28 17:39:24 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1480 * All %-escapes in mhn.defaults that actually expand to something
1481 should be surrounded by single quotes. Added quotes to the ones
1482 in mhn.defaults.sh that were missing them.
1484 * Added check for lynx to write mhshow-show-text/html line in
1487 Thu Jan 27 12:22:25 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1489 * makedir() had multiple bugs dating back to MH. An octal
1490 constant was apparently being interpreted as decimal, resulting in
1491 directories with no user read or execute permissions, making
1492 nested directory creation fail. And there wasn't even an
1493 _attempt_ to set desired permissions (e.g. from "Folder-Protect:"
1494 in .mh_profile) on the outer directories of a nested directory.
1496 * A second `make install' would always fail because the check for
1497 whether mh_profile.5 existed was written incorrectly.
1499 Wed Jan 26 02:22:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1501 * Added documentation on both types of masquerading to post's man
1504 Tue Jan 25 22:58:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1506 * Doug's portability fix of my setgid inc autodetection had a
1507 caching bug -- if you re-ran configure, uip/Makefile would be
1508 corrupted, and installation would bomb out on OSes where inc needs
1511 * Implemented a new kind of email address masquerading. Usually,
1512 when a user writes a custom "From:" header in a draft, nmh uses it
1513 rather than generating one. However, the user's true address is
1514 used in the SMTP envelope "From:" and is revealed in the "Sender:"
1515 header. Now, when mmailid is set to non-zero, the envelope
1516 "From:" uses the address specified in the draft "From:" header,
1517 and there is no "Sender:" header. This is useful when sending on
1518 behalf of a remote POP3 account or when remote mail robots
1519 incorrectly use the envelope "From:" in preference to the body
1520 "From:". This processing has only been implemented for post, not
1521 for the undocumented spost (which was already missing some "From:"
1522 processing that post has).
1524 Mon Jan 24 22:26:06 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1526 * Got rid of the rest of the gcc -Wall warnings that I didn't have
1527 time for on 1999-07-15 (and, it would seem, some new ones people
1528 introduced since then). The primary ones were the warnings that
1529 default prototypes were being used for [v]snprintf() and
1530 str[n]casecmp(). As of right now, there are _no_ compilation
1531 warnings except on dtimep.c-lexed (at least under AIX 4.1.5 and
1534 Sun Jan 2 23:42:18 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1536 * Move mhtest from bindir to libdir.
1538 * Move sendfiles from libdir to bindir.
1540 * Updated sendfiles manpage to reflect this change.
1542 * Added documentation for -build and -file switches to repl and
1543 forw manpages (patch from Peter Maydell).
1545 * Fixed interaction between specifying -cc in profile and -group on
1548 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1550 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
1551 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
1552 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
1555 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1557 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
1558 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
1559 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
1560 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
1561 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
1562 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).
1564 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1566 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
1568 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1570 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
1571 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
1572 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
1573 caught again. This works for now.
1575 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
1577 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1579 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
1580 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
1582 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1584 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
1585 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
1587 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
1589 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
1591 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1593 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
1594 changes. Both need more cleanup.
1596 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1598 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
1599 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
1600 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
1601 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
1602 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
1605 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1607 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
1608 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
1609 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
1611 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
1612 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
1615 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1617 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
1618 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
1619 to a directory on another device with more free space.
1621 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1623 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
1624 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
1626 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1628 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
1631 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
1632 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
1634 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
1635 macros, regardless of platform.
1637 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
1638 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1640 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
1641 with x-conversions=gzip.
1643 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1645 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
1648 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
1649 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
1650 implicit definition of ioctl().
1652 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
1653 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
1654 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
1655 want to mess with them.
1657 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1659 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
1660 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
1662 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
1663 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
1665 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
1666 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
1667 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
1669 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
1670 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
1671 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
1673 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
1674 function initgroups.
1676 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
1679 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
1680 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
1683 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
1684 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
1687 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
1688 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
1692 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1694 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
1695 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
1696 preventing compilation on at least linux.
1698 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
1699 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
1701 Thu Sep 09 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1703 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
1705 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
1706 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
1707 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
1708 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
1710 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
1711 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
1713 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1715 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
1717 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1719 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
1720 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
1722 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1724 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
1725 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
1727 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
1728 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
1729 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
1730 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
1732 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
1733 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
1735 Sat Jun 09 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1737 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
1738 substitute it for mktemp if available.
1740 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1742 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
1743 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
1746 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
1748 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
1750 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
1752 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
1753 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
1755 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
1756 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
1757 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
1759 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
1760 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
1761 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
1763 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
1764 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
1765 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1767 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
1768 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
1771 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
1772 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1774 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
1775 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1777 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
1778 <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1780 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
1781 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
1782 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1784 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
1785 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1787 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
1788 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
1789 <elleron@servtech.com>.
1791 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
1792 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
1795 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
1796 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
1798 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
1799 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
1800 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
1801 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
1803 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
1804 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
1806 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1810 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
1811 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
1812 would not be changed.
1814 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
1815 one from the Apache web server.
1817 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
1818 (this should have been done a long time ago).
1820 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
1821 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
1822 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
1824 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
1826 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
1828 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
1829 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
1832 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
1833 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
1834 removes a bad race condition.
1836 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
1839 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
1840 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
1841 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
1843 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
1844 sequence information.
1846 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
1847 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
1849 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
1852 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
1855 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
1857 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
1858 interpret 034 as octal.
1860 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
1862 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
1863 mhstore, and mhbuild.
1865 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
1866 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
1868 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
1869 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
1871 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
1872 in the c_cefile structure when building.
1874 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
1875 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
1877 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
1878 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
1879 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
1881 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
1882 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
1883 and mhshow. Updated man pages
1885 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
1887 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
1889 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
1890 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
1893 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
1895 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
1896 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
1898 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
1899 header field information.
1901 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
1902 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
1904 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
1905 values when parsing a content.
1907 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
1908 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
1910 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
1911 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
1913 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
1914 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1916 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
1917 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
1919 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
1921 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
1923 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
1925 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
1927 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
1928 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
1931 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
1932 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
1934 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
1935 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
1936 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
1937 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
1938 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
1939 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
1942 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1944 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
1945 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
1946 buffer length checks for this parameter.
1948 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
1949 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
1951 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1953 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
1954 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
1955 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
1956 of the limits on the length of command lines.
1958 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
1959 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
1962 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
1963 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
1964 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
1965 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
1968 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1970 * Released nmh-0.27.
1972 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
1973 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
1975 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
1976 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
1977 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
1978 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
1981 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
1982 mhbuild returns an error.
1984 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
1985 rename the draft file.
1987 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
1988 use a global variable.
1990 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
1991 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
1993 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
1994 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
1996 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
1997 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
1998 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
2000 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
2001 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
2003 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
2004 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
2007 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
2008 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
2011 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
2012 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
2014 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
2015 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
2016 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
2018 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
2019 to new function output_content_folder.
2021 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
2022 new function output_content_file.
2024 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
2025 to new function parse_format_string.
2027 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
2028 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
2029 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
2030 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
2032 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
2033 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
2034 message/external file from ftp.
2036 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
2037 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
2038 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
2040 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
2041 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
2044 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
2047 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
2048 new file mhstoresbr.c
2050 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
2053 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
2054 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
2056 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
2057 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
2059 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
2060 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
2061 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
2063 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
2065 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
2067 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
2068 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
2071 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
2072 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
2074 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
2077 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
2079 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2081 * Released nmh-0.26.
2083 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
2084 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
2085 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
2086 is still the same (dashstuffing).
2088 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
2089 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
2090 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
2091 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
2092 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
2094 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
2095 But it is not on by default.
2097 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
2098 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
2100 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
2102 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
2104 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
2106 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
2108 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
2109 number of the "cur" message when packing.
2111 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2113 * Released nmh-0.25.
2115 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
2116 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
2117 uses the original name of the library.
2119 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
2120 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
2123 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
2124 list_content and list_debug.
2126 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
2128 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
2129 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.
2131 1998-02-27 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2133 * Released nmh-0.24.
2135 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
2137 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
2138 are given, that order doesn't matter.
2140 * Fix bug in seq_list.c when realloc'ing for
2141 large sequence line.
2143 1998-02-23 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2145 * Released nmh-0.23.
2147 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
2149 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
2150 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan
2151 content, decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary
2152 string). I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
2154 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
2155 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
2158 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
2160 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
2162 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
2164 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
2165 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
2167 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
2168 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.
2170 * Add note to MACHINES file that on Linux, configure
2171 doesn't find the functions sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
2173 * Fix configuration for machines that don't have (or find)
2174 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
2176 1998-02-11 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2178 * Released nmh-0.22.
2180 * Add a configure check for sigsetjmp. Add some conditional
2181 #define's in h/signals.h in case it's not found.
2183 * Added additional notes about -auto switch in mhn man page.
2185 * Added note about MM_CHARSET environment variable to
2186 mh-profile(5) man page.
2188 * Fix signal problem in mhn.c (change setjmp/longjmp to
2189 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp).
2191 1998-02-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2193 * Released nmh-0.22-pre1.
2195 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
2196 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
2198 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
2200 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
2201 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
2202 entry point for parsing MIME files.
2204 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
2205 source message on the standard input.
2207 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
2209 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
2210 rather than -rfc934mode.
2212 * Fix mhbuild, so that Content-Description and RFC-822 comments
2213 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
2216 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
2217 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).
2219 * Restore HP specific code to zotnet/tws/lexstring.c. Apparently
2222 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2224 * Released nmh-0.21.
2226 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
2227 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.
2229 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what transfer
2232 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what character set
2233 to use for text contents.
2235 * Removed old hpux specific code from zotnet/tws/lexstring.c
2237 1998-02-02 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2239 * Released nmh-0.21-pre2.
2241 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
2243 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
2244 header fields as per RFC-2047.
2246 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
2247 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
2248 spaces between encoded word are.
2250 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
2252 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
2253 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
2255 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
2256 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
2257 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
2259 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
2261 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
2262 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
2264 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.
2266 * Added support for %(decode) to fmtdump.c.
2268 * check_charset() now accepts US-ASCII as a subset of any
2269 ISO-8859-X character set.
2271 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
2274 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
2275 permissions, not write permissions.
2277 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
2278 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
2280 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
2283 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2285 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
2287 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
2288 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
2290 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
2291 message contains valid character set.
2293 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
2294 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
2296 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
2297 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
2299 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
2300 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
2301 between an encoded word and normal text.
2303 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
2304 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
2306 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
2307 as a RFC-2047 header field.
2309 * The command install-mh now recognizes the switches -version
2312 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
2313 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
2316 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
2317 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
2319 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
2320 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
2322 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
2324 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2326 * Released nmh-0.20.
2328 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
2330 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.
2332 * Changed the default format file for mhl (mhl.format) to
2333 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
2334 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
2336 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
2337 and the To: line was missing.
2339 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
2341 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2343 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
2345 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
2346 watch the POP transaction.
2348 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
2349 first, and use it if available.
2351 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
2352 first, and use it if available.
2354 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2356 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
2358 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
2359 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
2360 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
2363 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
2364 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
2365 returns the state FLDPLUS.
2367 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
2368 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
2371 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
2373 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
2374 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
2376 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
2378 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
2379 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
2381 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
2382 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
2383 message to which you are replying.
2385 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
2386 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
2387 making group replies.
2389 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
2391 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2393 * Released nmh-0.19.
2395 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
2396 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
2398 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
2399 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
2400 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
2401 to the end of the man page.
2403 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
2404 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
2405 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
2406 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
2407 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
2408 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
2410 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
2413 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
2414 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
2415 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
2417 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
2418 the next available number above the message number you wish
2421 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
2422 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
2424 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
2425 file sbr/seq_print.c
2427 * flist will now update the current folder.
2429 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
2430 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
2431 but now undocumented.
2433 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
2436 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
2437 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
2439 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
2441 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
2442 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
2444 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2446 * Released nmh-0.18.
2448 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
2449 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
2450 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
2452 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
2453 retains the public/private status of sequences.
2455 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
2456 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
2457 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
2458 previous public/private status.
2460 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
2463 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
2466 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
2467 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
2468 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
2470 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
2471 take option to determine whether it should get current
2472 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
2473 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
2475 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
2477 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
2478 wait for stopped processes.
2480 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
2481 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
2483 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2485 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
2487 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
2488 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
2490 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
2491 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
2493 * Change the way that memory for message status is
2494 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
2495 the folder/message structure. This required changing
2496 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
2498 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
2501 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
2504 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
2506 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
2507 the debugging output.
2509 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
2510 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
2512 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2514 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
2516 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
2517 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
2519 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
2521 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
2522 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
2523 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
2524 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
2525 in the given sequence.
2527 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
2528 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
2529 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
2530 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
2531 subdirectories of a given directory.
2533 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
2534 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
2535 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
2537 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
2538 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
2540 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
2542 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
2545 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
2546 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
2547 fields are now calculated at runtime.
2549 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
2550 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
2551 are calculated at runtime.
2553 Sun Nov 30 19:14:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2555 * Released nmh-0.18-pre2.
2557 * Add paragraph to man page for install-mh and to INSTALL file
2558 about checking for global mh.profile.
2560 * Renamed m_find() to context_find().
2561 Renamed m_replace() to context_replace().
2562 Renamed m_delete() to context_del().
2563 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
2564 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
2565 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
2567 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
2568 adding message to folder itself.
2570 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
2571 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
2572 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
2575 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
2576 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
2579 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
2580 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
2581 is the same as the direct smtp code).
2583 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
2584 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
2586 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
2587 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
2588 code to use it yet).
2590 Thu Nov 13 18:42:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2592 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.
2594 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never
2595 called with a value larger than 30 mintues.
2597 * Fixed race condition in rmm and refile, so that
2598 context is updated before external rmmproc is called.
2600 * Removed all the OVERHEAD code.
2602 * Move code to add message to folder from refile.c
2605 Fri Jul 25 19:39:29 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2607 * Did some rearranging of the internals of inc.c.
2609 * Make -inplace the default for anno, forw, dist, and repl.
2611 * Changed --enable-smtp to --with-mts={smtp,sendmail}
2613 * Created new directory mts/sendmail for direct sendmail
2614 interface (although it currently still uses SMTP).
2616 * Removed all the TMA (trusted mail agent) code
2618 * Removed all the TTYD (terminal access daemon) code
2620 * Removed all the MF (uucp filtering) code.
2622 * Removed all the code for BERK.
2624 * Removed all the code for stand-alone delivery (MHMTS).
2626 * Split the file mts/sendmail/smail.c into sendmail.c and
2627 smtp.c. Changed the name of the directory to mts/smtp.
2629 * Changed autoconf to use @sysconfdir@ for location of
2630 configuration files.
2632 * Changed #define in mhn.c from FTP to BUILTIN_FTP.
2634 Mon Jul 21 03:22:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2636 * Released nmh-0.17.
2638 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
2640 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
2641 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
2643 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
2646 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
2647 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
2649 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
2650 number of refiled message.
2652 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
2654 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
2655 for return value of wait().
2657 * Change configure to also check /bin for "more".
2659 Sat Jul 12 00:02:23 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2661 * Released nmh-0.16.
2663 Mon Jun 23 20:13:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2665 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
2667 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
2668 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
2669 deal with binary messages, yet).
2671 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
2673 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
2675 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
2676 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
2677 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
2678 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
2679 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
2680 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
2682 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
2683 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
2685 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
2686 From MH-6.8.4 patch.
2688 * Fix double free of ctinfo in user_content when using
2689 #forw with single message. From John MacMillan (and
2692 * Changed -mhnproc switch for show, to -showmimeproc.
2694 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".
2696 * Added "mime" option to "whatnow", which calls the program
2697 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
2700 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
2703 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
2705 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
2706 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
2707 which used unsigned chars by default.
2709 Sat Jun 21 01:21:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2711 * Released nmh-0.15.
2713 * Added new form "scan.unseen" to distribution. It marks messages

2718 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
2720 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
2723 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
2724 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
2725 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
2727 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
2728 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
2730 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
2732 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
2733 they conflict with defines on AIX.
2735 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
2736 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
2737 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
2738 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
2740 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
2741 and put in own subroutine.
2743 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
2744 and put in own subroutine.
2746 * Moved code to remove messages from folder into own
2747 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and
2748 refile.c to use new routine.
2750 Fri May 16 06:09:31 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2752 * Renamed m_seqok to seq_nameok.
2754 * Changed m_setunseen, msh, mshcmds, flist, and scan to use
2757 * Changed m_seqflag to return the number of a sequence rather
2758 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
2759 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
2761 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
2764 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before
2765 adding message to sequence.
2767 * Renamed function m_setvis to m_setunseen, and renamed
2768 corresponding file in sbr.
2770 * Renamed function m_setseq to m_setprev, and renamed corresponding
2773 * Changed mark.c and pick.c to use m_seqaddsel and m_seqdelsel.
2775 * Added new function m_seqdelsel to m_seqdel.c, which deletes
2776 all selected messages from a sequence.
2778 * Added new function m_seqaddsel to m_seqadd.c, which adds all
2779 selected messages to a sequence.
2781 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,
2784 Thu May 15 00:53:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2786 * Renamed function pack_folder to m_packfolder, and moved it
2787 from uip/folder.c into its own file sbr/m_packfolder.c
2789 Wed May 14 23:38:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2791 * Changed function m_gmsg to m_readfolder. Renamed file
2792 sbr/m_gmsg.c to sbr/m_readfolder.c.
2794 Mon May 5 19:57:11 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2796 * Expanded rcvtty man page, and added small patch from
2797 MH-6.8.4 distribution.

2801 * Released nmh-0.14.
2803 * Comment out configure test and code for tgetent to allocate its
2804 own termcap buffer when passed a NULL argument.
2806 Sat Apr 26 03:46:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2808 * Added new options `-checkmime', `-nocheckmime', and `-mhnproc'
2809 to show. Restructured code to handle options to various
2810 `procs' better. Deprecated `-noshowproc' option and NOMHNPROC
2811 environment variable.
2813 * Added new man page `mh-draft' which documents the
2814 draft folder facility in nmh.
2816 * Renamed fmtsbr.h to fmt_scan.h. Renamed fmtcompile.h
2819 * split fmtsbr.c into fmt_scan.c and fmt_new.c. Renamed

2823 * `send -help' wasn't showing the -(no)mime and -split
2826 Fri Apr 25 02:50:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2828 * Released nmh-0.13.
2830 * Changed mhpath so it doesn't abort if a message sequence
2831 such as "mhpath all" expands to more than 1000 messages.
2832 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
2833 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
2836 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
2837 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
2839 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2841 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if
2842 necessary. So `folders' can now handle more than 300 folders.
2844 Tue Apr 22 14:01:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2846 * Change configure to use a compile check to see if the tm struct

2875 will suppress the display of the message header.
2877 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
2879 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c

2884 * Add configure test for lorder and tsort commands.
2886 * Commented out the padding in the `msgs` struct in h/mh.h

2891 * Add note to man page for mhmail that zero length messages are
2892 not sent. Need to use -body "" to send empty messages.
2894 * zotnet/mts/mts.c : compare character with '\0', not NULL.
2896 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
2898 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
2899 folder/message structure when done with folder.
2901 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is
2902 defined even if message is missing "From " line.
2904 Mon Mar 31 03:37:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2906 * Released nmh-0.10.

2916 The "From " line is now removed from all messages.
2918 * inc now saves the date from the "From " envelope in the
2919 Delivery-Date header for all messages.
2921 * sbr/m_getfld.c: Clean up processing of Return-Path and

2926 * client.c: cast iaddr to int before comparing return value
2927 of inet_addr with NOTOK.
2929 Tue Mar 11 04:38:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2931 * Grep test for signal names was failing on some OS'es because
2932 of missing tabs in regex.

2961 * rcvtty.c : Changed to use #define UTMP_FILE (if exists) rather
2962 than hard coded "/etc/utmp".
2964 * Released nmh-0.08.
2966 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
2967 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of
2968 locking database itself.
2970 Thu Feb 27 05:28:09 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2972 * Added slocal action `mmdf' to deliver to a file in mmdf format.
2974 * Changed the slocal actions `file' and `>' to always deliver in
2975 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
2978 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
2979 rather than mmdf format.
2981 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
2982 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
2983 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
2984 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
2986 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
2988 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2990 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
2993 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2994 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2995 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
2997 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2998 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2999 rcvpack so you can choose the preferred format.
3001 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3003 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
3004 can still easily change this in config.h).
3006 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
3007 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
3008 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
3010 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3012 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather

3026 * Add check to configure, so that if ruserpass, or _ruserpass
3027 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
3029 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
3030 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
3033 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
3034 built-in FTP client in mhn.

3047 * Released nmh-0.06.
3049 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
3050 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
3052 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
3053 many such machines around anymore.
3055 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
3056 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
3058 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
3059 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
3061 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3063 * Check lex generated file in zotnet/tws and use
3064 pre-generated version if necessary.
3066 * Released nmh-0.05.
3068 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
3069 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
3070 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
3071 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
3073 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
3074 be linked in one pass.
3076 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3078 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
3079 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
3081 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3083 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
3085 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3087 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
3088 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
3089 become the current folder.
3091 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3093 * Released nmh-0.04.
3095 * Define ospeed and PC in termsbr.c is OS doesn't have
3098 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3100 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
3101 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
3102 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
3104 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3106 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
3107 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
3109 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3111 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
3112 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
3115 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
3116 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
3118 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3120 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
3121 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
3122 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
3123 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
3124 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
3125 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
3127 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3129 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
3130 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
3132 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
3133 a file (currently need to specify full path).
3135 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3137 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
3138 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
3140 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3142 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
3143 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
3144 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
3146 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3148 * Released nmh-0.03.
3150 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
3151 .mh_sequence file existed.
3153 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
3154 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
3156 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
3157 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
3160 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3162 * Changed flist option -unseen to -[no]all. Cleaned up
3165 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3167 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
3168 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
3169 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
3171 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3173 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
3174 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
3175 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
3177 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3179 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL
3180 and allocate its own buffer. Borrowed from zsh.
3182 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
3184 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3186 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
3187 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
3188 directory from where the source code is located.
3190 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3192 * Released nmh-0.02.

3199 Tue Dec 31 03:07:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3201 * Changed code to use strerror, rather than using sys_errlist
3202 and sys_nerr directly.

3206 * -compat switch from install-mh removed.
3208 * Changed the default POP port from "pop" to "pop3".
3210 Sat Dec 28 13:25:05 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3212 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
3213 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
3214 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
3215 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
3216 rather than in script.
3218 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3220 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
3222 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with
3223 macro defined on Solaris.
3225 Thu Dec 26 02:50:15 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3227 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
3228 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
3230 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
3231 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
3232 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
3233 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
3236 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3238 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
3239 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.
3241 * Fixed configure test so that termcap variable ospeed is
3244 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3246 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
3248 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included
3249 in mhn.c. Changed md5 to use memset and memcpy.
3251 Fri Dec 20 02:29:37 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3253 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
3254 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
3256 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3258 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
3259 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
3260 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
3261 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
3262 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
3263 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
3265 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3267 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
3269 * Released nmh-0.01.
3271 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
3272 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
3273 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
3276 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3278 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
3281 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3283 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
3284 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
3286 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3288 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
3289 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
3290 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
3291 script to find_program.
3293 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3295 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
3296 speed up -recurse option.
3298 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
3299 yet, but it compiles :-)
3301 * Changed default location for install to
3302 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
3303 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
3304 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
3307 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
3308 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
3309 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
