1 Mon Jun 5 22:10:07 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
3 * Use cat instead of tsort if tsort cannot deal with loops in its
4 input (which is the case for tsort from GNU textutils).
6 Mon Jun 5 21:14:36 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
8 * If lockfile is present, and its dotlockfile program is setgid,
9 inc does not need to be setgid.
11 Sun Jun 4 21:35:40 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
13 * Added autoconf test for Miquel van Smoorenburg's liblockfile
14 library, as found on Debian systems.
16 * Added liblockfile support to sbr/lock_file.c.
18 Wed May 31 7:19:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
20 * Fixed up dtimep.lex a bit. Added back memory options for AIX to
21 increase available memory. Took out %option noyywrap, which
22 wasn't understood by AT&T lex, as well as the -i
23 case-insensitivity flag.
25 Wed May 31 07:40:45 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
27 * added a lint target to the Makefiles and a check in autoconf
28 to determine whether lint or lclint exists on the system.
30 Fri May 30 19:21:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
32 * etc/Makefile.in was incorrectly installing mts.conf.in and
33 sendfiles.in -- fixed. Generated sendfiles script was not a
34 dependency of the `all' target, and was incorrectly included in
35 the distribution. Changed the suffix for the backed-up previous
36 versions of the etc files from the ambiguous .old to .prev. Added
37 call to diff -- only keep the .prev files around if different from
38 the newly-installed versions (intentionally didn't redirect output
39 to /dev/null so you'll notice when your changed versions are
42 * INSTALL never documented the etc/*.old thing. Documented the
43 new etc/*.prev thing (including a note to watch for diff output).
45 * Applied Alec Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu>'s dropsbr.c patch:
47 In the map_write routine, a call is made to map_open and this
48 call is supposed to set the "clear" variable to 0 or 1,
49 depending on whether the map file is empty or not. In
50 mh6.8.3, this worked because map_open would set "clear" by
51 calling the mbx_Xopen routine. In nmh, the code for mbx_Xopen
52 was merged into mbx_open, but the interface for mbx_open
53 doesn't support the clear variable, so that functionality was
54 lost. The map_open interface still contains "int *clear" in
55 the prototype, but never sets it.
57 My patch eliminates "clear" from the map_open interface (I
58 checked to make sure that map_write is the only client of
59 map_open). Furthermore, my patch also sets the "clear"
60 variable properly at the beginning of map_write by calling
61 fstat(). This eliminates the bug in that the value of "clear"
62 being used later in the routine was just stack garbage.
64 Having a bad value of clear causes this next bug to be
65 triggered: The fp file pointer was being opened with fdopen,
66 but in two of the three switch cases it wasn't being closed.
67 In certain cases, this was causing packf to run out of file
68 descriptors if you attempted to pack a large folder.
70 Mon May 29 7:48:15 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
72 * Moved the date parsing routines from zotnet/tws to sbr/ (and
73 tws.h to h/). Updated all source files to reflect to new location
76 * Rewrote dparsetime (dtimep.c) to replace the old
77 zotnet/tws/dtimep.c, lexstring.c, lexedit.c, and
78 dtimep.c-lexed. It should now work with flex (although untested
79 with lex), and requires no sed-ing. For now, I have the lexed
80 version in the distribution, so that end-users don't need to worry
81 about running it through flex/lex. I have not added back support
82 for guessing the time zone when it's not specified.
84 Sun May 28 17:44:15 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
86 * Added autoconf check for getutent().
88 * Changed uip/rcvtty.c and uip/slocal.c to use getutent() and
89 friends. Since I can only check on Linux, please check if
90 this works on other systems.
92 Sun May 28 14:58:49 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
94 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to uip/scansbr.c for more
95 checks for write failures.
97 * Unlink temporary file properly in uip/rcvtty.c.
99 * Moved viamail from bindir to libdir.
101 * Changed sendfiles into sendfiles.in, so that path to viamail
104 * Added gzip support to sendfiles.
106 * Added References header to replcomps and replgroupcomps.
108 Sun May 28 14:39:31 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
110 * Fixed m_getfld bug which caused segmentation faults when
111 incorporating messages which ended in multiple linefeeds crossing
114 Fri May 26 13:21:59 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
116 * msh has been unable to show MIME messages ever since 1.0. Alec
117 Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu> tracked down the problem to the
118 -show flag being passed to mhshow. mhshow is equivalent to the
119 old mhn -show, so we don't need the -show anymore. Removed it.
121 Fri May 12 02:51:21 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
123 * zotnet/bboards is not longer built by default. Goal is to move
124 the assorted functions in zotnet into sbr or some more logical
127 * Moved zotnet/mf to sbr, and changed mf.h references accordingly,
128 as well as Makefiles.
130 Thu May 11 02:21:34 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
132 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that both SRCS and OBJS aren't
133 seperately and redundantly defined, but so that OBJS is a
134 pattern-substituted version of SRCS with suffix .c -> .o. This
135 should make maintainability easier.
137 * Added section to MACHINES indicating what platforms nmh is known
138 to compile and work on, just to give users peace of mind, or
139 something. This is by no means complete or exhaustive, so add
140 whatever you know works.
142 Tue May 09 20:38:04 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
144 * Alphabetized Shantonu's $pop_kinds output on configure's "pop is
145 enabled" line. If POP3 is the only kind of POP enabled, say so,
146 rather than just saying "yes" (which is ambiguous).
148 * Fixed four warnings in Shantonu's new getpass.c. Needed to
149 #include <stdlib.h> for calloc(), <unistd.h> for ttyname(), and
150 "h/mh.h" for adios(). Also changed ch from char to int to get rid
151 of "comparison is always 1 due to limited range of data type" on EOF.
153 * Added steps to README.developers saying to change the version
154 number to X.Y.Z+dev. Did a little rearranging and changed the FTP
155 dir from /home/ftp to /var/ftp to reflect Doug's new machine.
157 * Changed configure.in to use gcc -Wall even without
158 --enable-debug, to prevent developers compiling optimized from
159 introducing warnings, and to give end-users a warm, fuzzy feeling
160 as they (hopefully) see no warnings come out (except perhaps on
161 the lex output file) even with -Wall.
163 * Renamed getpass() to nmh_getpass() since the prototype for
164 getpass() varies from OS to OS, and we want to _always_ use our
165 version of the function. Fixed all the callers to use
166 nmh_getpass() and added it to prototypes.h. Semi-arbitrarily
167 upped MAX_PASSWORD_LEN from 128 to 256. buf was being calloc()'d
168 and the memory leaked -- should have just been declared as static
169 char array. Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the
170 copyright message, as this version has been changed significantly
171 from the BSD version.
173 * Added "nmh-local functions to use in preference to OS versions"
174 section to README.developers (currently just says to use
175 nmh_getpass() instead of system getpass()).
177 * Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the copyright message
180 * Added mts.conf.5 page per Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s
183 This happens on solaris:
186 windex entry incorrect: mts.conf(5) not found.
187 No manual entry for mts.conf.
191 % echo ".so man5/mh-tailor.5" > mts.conf.5
193 done in the man5 directory. We need to add 'mts.conf.5' as a
194 reference sourcing mh-tailor.5.
196 Mon May 08 23:51:55 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
198 * Doug informed me that the way I had restored the "lost" version
199 histories was wrong, because `cvs checkout's of old versions of
200 nmh wouldn't work properly. It occurs to me that this could be
201 fixed by simply deleting those tags in the new-location *,v files,
202 but oh well. I'm putting everything back to the way Doug
203 originally had it. To get the old version history for a file that
204 used to be in the top directory, you'll need to "blindly" do a
205 `cvs log' there (even though you won't have a local copy of the
206 file in that directory). `cvs diff' will no longer be able to
207 diff pre-move versions vs. post-move versions -- you'll have to do
208 a lot of manual gyrations with `cvs checkout' and then use `diff'.
210 * I had alphabetized the --configure options in the --help output
211 awhile back, but Shantonu added --enable-apop just under
212 --enable-pop. Put it in alphabetical order and clarified what
213 --enable-apop does vs. --enable-pop and --with-krb4. Also changed
214 --with-mts help line from "mail transport agent" to "mail
215 transport agent/service" so the 's' in "mts" doesn't seem to come
218 * Added two steps to "releasing nmh" in README.developers. After
219 making the tarball, it's a good idea to diff the tree vs. the CVS
220 tree to make sure no files got left out, and then to chown the
221 files so that they're owned by root, preventing a Trojaning attack
222 by a malicious remote user with a UID matching yours.
224 * Changed DIFFERENCES to say that RPOP is not currently supported
225 rather than implying it by saying that APOP, KPOP, and POP[3] are.
227 Sun May 07 18:16:43 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
229 * Imported NetBSD version of getpass() and made extensive
230 revisions for compatibility with programs that pipe the password
231 to stdin, such as exmh.
233 * Removed tests for system ruserpass() which sometimes gave
234 phantom positive results. Also, bext to use internal functions if
235 we ever want to change .netrc format to something else, or access
238 Sat May 06 08:28:09 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
240 * Restored lost version histories for those moved files by doing a
241 manual `mv' in the CVSROOT on mhost. CVS badly needs a `cvs mv'
242 command so that you can move files (without having physical access
243 to the CVSROOT) without losing versioning. Put MACHINES back at
244 the top level as it needs to be read before building. Fixed DIST
245 variable in {.,docs}/Makefile.in to reflect that and to add
246 missing entry for "INSTALL" file.
248 Sat May 06 13:13:07 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
250 * Re-cleaned up nmh documentation (by moving things to docs
251 subdir) and modified Makefile & configure.in to handle the change.
253 Mon Apr 17 21:28:40 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
255 * Scott Blachowicz pointed out that the configure --help output
256 for --enable-masquerade was misleading. Clarified.
258 Mon Apr 17 19:01:00 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
260 * APOP support can be compiled in to inc and msgchk using
263 * To access an APOP host, specify -apop on the command line
264 along with any -host or -user option.
266 Fri Apr 14 23:10:44 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
268 * Upped the version number to 1.0.4+dev until the next nmh release.
270 * Added a "releasing nmh" section to README.developers, while the
271 process was fresh in my mind.
273 Fri Apr 14 18:21:34 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
275 * Added new files README.developers, ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6, and
276 ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html to DIST target in Makefile.in.
278 * Released nmh-1.0.4.
280 Tue Apr 11 21:37:03 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
282 * Applied Brian Campbell <bacam@tardis.ed.ac.uk>'s mhn.defaults.sh
285 It appears that there shouldn't be quotes around the %s in the
286 iso-8859-1 charset entry; xterm passes the remaining arguments
287 to the program, quoting them means that xterm thinks they're
288 part of the program's name.
290 This %s isn't the same as the "Insert content subtype" one from
291 mhshow-show-* -- it doesn't come from MIME headers and is safe not
294 Sun Apr 09 13:03:59 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
296 * added check in fmt_compile() to handle a single-character
297 format string. fmt_compile() depends on having an array of
298 format characters with an empty item at the end. A
299 single-character format would cause programs using this
300 function to segfault because the algorithm used to decide on
301 the length of the array mistakenly created a single-item array
302 when the format string was one character. This eventually
303 caused problems when the program attempted to test item+1
306 Thu Apr 06 21:53:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
308 * Richard Coleman threw out a lot of old MH-specific files in nmh.
309 Much of the stuff, indeed, is not worth saving, but there are
310 nuggets that are very worthwhile, and should probably be added
311 back in. Most important, IMHO, are the MH change logs, as they
312 can help answer questions like "Why is this code like this?" or
313 "How long has this been broken?" or "What was this ever used for?"
315 I've added a new file to the nmh tree called
316 ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6. It's cobbled together from the
317 mh-6.8.4/papers/mh*/MHCHANGES files. I've re-ordered the entries
318 to go from newest at the top to oldest at the bottom to match the
319 ChangeLog convention. Unfortunately there are no change logs for
320 versions of MH prior to 3 in the MH tar files available at
321 <ftp://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/mh>. Also, it appears to me that there
322 are MH-6.6 changes that aren't documented in the logs.
324 I've also added ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html. This is
325 based on mh-6.8.4/papers/changes/mh-changes.ms. The nroff format
326 and its "catman"-type output are a pain to deal with, but I was
327 loath to throw away the formatting, so I converted the file to
328 HTML. The only actual markup in the body are the "<B>" and "<U>"
329 tags, and "<" and ">" instead of '<' and '>', so it's quite
330 doable to view the file in plain ASCII mode as well. Note that
331 some of the changes this file documents as having been made in
332 MH-6.8.4 may not be present in nmh -- Richard started with 6.8.3
333 and later put in certain 6.8.4 stuff.
335 Wed Apr 05 21:09:28 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
337 * Applied Eric Schnoebelen <eric@cirr.com>'s mhshowsbr.c patch
338 fixing apparent bugs in Dan Winship's new security quoting code:
340 Since upgrading, I've been getting the following errors
341 while attempting to process some MIME messages:
343 (1) Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
348 (2) line 1/10 (END)Segmentation fault (core dumped)
350 (2) appears to be due to the testing of an unset pointer in
351 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux(). (1) appears to be caused by
352 mis-quoting a filename being handed to the shell in
353 mhshowsbr.c:show_content_aux().
355 Resolving the pointer reference issue in
356 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux() turned up a similar mis-quoting
357 problem in the routine.
359 Tue Mar 28 16:17:39 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
361 * Applied Todd.Miller@courtesan.com's patch to dropsbr.c to
362 prevent core dumping on packf. Here's the note from his message:
364 Since sizeof(buffer) == sizeof(tmpbuffer) packf will dump
365 core on a file w/o a From line with a line >= BUFSIZ.
366 I noticed this because I had a junk file in my mail
369 Fri Mar 17 11:59:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
371 * wesley.craig@umich.edu did not document his previous KPOP patch,
372 so I did so, and asked him to check what I wrote. Unfortunately
373 he didn't notice my misunderstanding of his patch. I wrote that
374 if you #define POPSERVICE "kpop", inc and msgchk will use KPOP
375 exclusively, but if you leave it as "pop3", you can use Wesley's
376 new -kpop switch on a given invocation. Instead, however, -kpop
377 turned out to be necessary on every invocation, and a KPOP user
378 complained. Applied Wesley's new patch, which makes things work
379 like I thought his original patch did. After that, did one more
380 clarifying pass to the documentation in inc.man and msgchk.man.
382 Wed Mar 15 18:45:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
384 * When I fixed the long-standing makedir() bugs in January, I had
385 the code call strtoul(..., 0), which I believed to be safe as all
386 modes specified as ASCII constants in the nmh code started with a
387 leading zero (signifying octal), which I did as it would work if
388 internal constants were ever changed to hex. Unfortunately I was
389 unaware of the "Folder-Protect:" .mh_profile entry, which
390 mh-profile.man documents as an octal-only constant, with no
391 leading zero required. I've changed the strtoul() call to an
392 atooi() call and removed the misleading leading zeroes on the
393 ASCII octal constants in the code and man pages. Also changed the
394 "Folder-Protect:" example in the man page to something more
395 interesting than a duplication of the default.
397 * When I added my --enable-masquerade option, you'll note that I
398 didn't make it --enable-nmh-masquerade. I find the --enable-nmh-*
399 options too wordy and I'm not sure why Richard went that route.
400 I've renamed them to just --enable-*, but the old versions will
401 still work as well (they just aren't advertised).
403 * Added a line to the "nmh configuration" output saying whether
406 * Added a new README.developers file. From the file:
408 This file is intended to provide a few tips for anyone doing
409 development on nmh. Developers who learn things "the hard
410 way" about the nmh codebase (as opposed to local info best
411 encoded in a comment) are encouraged to share their wisdom
414 Currently the topics are "autoconf files" and "directory structure".
416 Tue Mar 14 12:41:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
418 * Applied, after some finessing,
419 Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s --with-smtpservers patch:
421 Here's a patch that allows you to add
423 --with-smtpservers=<some.host.name>
425 to the ./configure command line to set the "servers: " line in
426 etc/mts.conf. Around here, we use "mailhost" so that all
427 machines in the current domain just talk to a central machine
428 and nothing else runs an MTA. Now, I can use
430 --with-smtpservers=mailhost
432 instead of having to remember to fix this by hand (and often
433 forgetting to do so!).
435 * Inspired by Simon's patch, added an --enable-masquerade option
436 to configure. It will set the "masquerade:" line of mts.conf.
437 You may specify a subset of the three types of masquerading, like
438 --enable-masquerade="draft_from mmailid", or leave off explicit
439 arguments to enable all three types.
441 * Alphabetized the --enable and --with options in configure.in and
442 INSTALL and added documentation of the two new options to the latter.
444 * Added new dependency for mts.conf: Makefile. If this isn't
445 done, then when you reconfigure nmh with new values for
446 --enable-masquerade or --with-smtpservers, you'll fail to get an
447 updated copy of mts.conf.
449 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtimep.lex patch:
451 It seems that some MUA's didn't handle y2k very well - ELM
452 seems to be one of them, and Ultrix's DXmail (based on MH!).
453 I've got a few emails this month that look like:
455 575 Jan 00 Xxxxxx Xxxx 3603 ...
457 22+ Jan 00 Xxx Xxxxx 1771 ...
459 The first has "15 Jan 100" as the date and the second has
460 "19 Jan 00" as the date. The following works around this so
461 that scan, show, sortm, etc work ok.
463 I put Simon's patch under the control of a new #define called
464 FIX_NON_Y2K_COMPLIANT_MUA_DATES. There's some commentary in
465 acconfig.h about when you might not want to #define it.
467 * Created new dtimep.c-lexed with Simon's change using dtimep.lex
468 lexed on Solaris 2.6. Added missing dependency in
469 zotnet/tws/Makefile.in for dtimep.c: dtimep.c-lexed.
471 * Added scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD format files.
473 Mon Mar 13 21:32:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
475 * Applied Sullivan N. Beck <sbeck@cise.ufl.edu>'s mhshow-suffix patch:
477 With the patch below, you can add lines like:
479 mhshow-suffix-application/msword: .doc
480 mhshow-suffix-application/PostScript: .ps
482 to the mhn.defaults file to append the given suffix to a
483 scratch file. This allows applications which require a
484 certain suffix to run properly.
486 * Removed -force_html from lynx entry in mhn.defaults.sh (I
487 believe older versions of lynx lack that option) and added
488 "mhshow-suffix-text/html: .html".
490 * Modified username_extension masquerading to only use the
491 extended address on generated [Resent-]From: lines and SMTP
492 envelope From:. With Neil's original implementation, nmh's global
493 idea of the username was changed, which would result in inc lying
494 and saying you had no new mail because it was looking for a
495 mailbox called, for instance, "dan-nmh" (where username was "dan"
496 and $USERNAME_EXTENSION was "-nmh").
498 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtime.c patch:
500 There's a wrap-around problem that affects the implementation
501 of Zeller's congruence in dtime.c. This causes the day-of-week
502 calculations to fail for dates after Feb 29, 2000 (probably up
503 until some year far in the future).
505 Mon Mar 06 12:20:20 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
507 * Applied Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s msh.c patch:
509 I finally tracked down the problem in msh that was causing
510 errors whenever I tried to examine a 'mmdf' style mailbox.
512 It turns out that not enough memory was being allocated with
513 calloc(), causing memory pointers to be overwritten and
516 Fri Mar 03 16:07:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
518 * Changed the new "plussed_user" option to mts.conf's
519 "masquerade:" to "username_extension" after getting feedback from
520 qmail users, who use '-' as a separator rather than '+'. Removed
521 checking of $USERPLUS variable. Now check $USERNAME_EXTENSION,
522 which needs to include the appropriate separator for your MTA
523 ('-', '+', or whatever) as its first character.
525 Thu Mar 02 23:04:30 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
527 * Added a new "boolean" type to mh.h and TRUE and FALSE constants.
529 * Added a note to DIFFERENCES stating that it's out-of-date
530 (Richard was the last one to update it) and that we should
531 consider only documenting incompatibilities with MH there.
533 * Implemented (and documented) a third kind of username
534 masquerading: "plussed user" masquerading. This one was suggested
535 by Neil Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>. It's based on sendmail's
536 "plussed user" feature, where mail sent to <user>+<string> will be
537 delivered to <user>. When it's enabled, it's controlled by the
538 $USERPLUS environment variable. How is it enabled? Well, that
541 * Renamed the "mmailid:" setting in mts.conf to "masquerade:", and
542 changed it so that rather than being a boolean, it can be set to
543 any combination of the three values "draft_from", "mmailid", and
544 "plussed_user". Thus it is now possible to enable the three types
545 of masquerading individually.
547 * Fixed a bug with "mmailid" masquerading (dating back to MH?)
548 where if it was turned on, ','s would no longer be considered
549 GECOS field delimiters.
551 Wed Mar 01 23:30:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
553 * Changed the GECOS-field '&' translation behavior to be
554 controlled by the BSD42 #define rather than GCOS_HACK, since it's
555 apparently always appropriate on OSes where BSD42 is #defined, and
556 never appropriate on any other OSes. Thanks to Kimmo Suominen for
557 responding to my "What is this code here for?" comment in mts.c
558 and explaining the feature.
560 Mon Feb 28 21:50:29 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
562 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3+dev (ideally this should be
563 done by whoever makes a release tar file, immediately after doing
566 * Applied Paul Fox <pgf-spam@foxharp.boston.ma.us>'s scansbr.c
567 patch, posted to comp.mail.mh, which he says prevents loss of mail
568 when inc'ing into a full filesystem.
570 * Changed "echo > stamp-h.in" in Makefile.in to "date > stamp-h.in"
571 so that stamp-h.in will be different each time configure.in and
572 related files are changed, making it easier to check it in (which
573 is necessary to prevent unnecessary autoconf calls).
575 * My declaration of initgroups() in slocal.c to eliminate the "no
576 prototype" warning wasn't portable (FreeBSD 3.[23] choked). Now
577 use AC_EGREP_HEADER to see where initgroups() is declared, if
580 Sun Feb 20 12:17:15 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
582 * Fix security hole in mhshowsbr.c which allowed untrusted shell
585 * Released nmh 1.0.3.
587 Thu Feb 10 10:54:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
589 * Oops. %-escapes on mhstore lines in mhn.defaults.sh should not
590 be surrounded by single quotes, as a shell is not spawned when
591 just saving files, and the filenames will end up with literal
592 quotes embedded in them.
594 Fri Feb 04 12:29:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
596 * Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
597 got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
598 the -help output. One theory is that they were making reference
599 to the fact that clearly you know about the -help option since
600 you're currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea
601 to overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
602 supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
605 The other theory is that because you can say something like
606 "mhstore -" and get "mhstore: - ambiguous. It matches" followed
607 by the same list of switches you get with -help, they were saying
608 you can "sorta" abbreviate "-help" as "-". You don't get the
609 "Usage:" string, though, so it's not really the same thing.
611 Thu Feb 03 17:52:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
613 * Applied wesley.craig@umich.edu's KPOP patches. According to him:
615 The following patch fixes a problem with requesting a
616 service key for a machine that has multiple 'A' records. It
617 also makes "-kpop" a command line option, for users who
618 would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".
620 Did no testing of the new features, as I don't have access to a
623 * Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
625 * Modified INSTALL and config.h.in to reflect the new -kpop feature.
627 Fri Jan 28 17:39:24 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
629 * All %-escapes in mhn.defaults that actually expand to something
630 should be surrounded by single quotes. Added quotes to the ones
631 in mhn.defaults.sh that were missing them.
633 * Added check for lynx to write mhshow-show-text/html line in
636 Thu Jan 27 12:22:25 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
638 * makedir() had multiple bugs dating back to MH. An octal
639 constant was apparently being interpreted as decimal, resulting in
640 directories with no user read or execute permissions, making
641 nested directory creation fail. And there wasn't even an
642 _attempt_ to set desired permissions (e.g. from "Folder-Protect:"
643 in .mh_profile) on the outer directories of a nested directory.
645 * A second `make install' would always fail because the check for
646 whether mh_profile.5 existed was written incorrectly.
648 Wed Jan 26 02:22:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
650 * Added documentation on both types of masquerading to post's man
653 Tue Jan 25 22:58:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
655 * Doug's portability fix of my setgid inc autodetection had a
656 caching bug -- if you re-ran configure, uip/Makefile would be
657 corrupted, and installation would bomb out on OSes where inc needs
660 * Implemented a new kind of email address masquerading. Usually,
661 when a user writes a custom "From:" header in a draft, nmh uses it
662 rather than generating one. However, the user's true address is
663 used in the SMTP envelope "From:" and is revealed in the "Sender:"
664 header. Now, when mmailid is set to non-zero, the envelope
665 "From:" uses the address specified in the draft "From:" header,
666 and there is no "Sender:" header. This is useful when sending on
667 behalf of a remote POP3 account or when remote mail robots
668 incorrectly use the envelope "From:" in preference to the body
669 "From:". This processing has only been implemented for post, not
670 for the undocumented spost (which was already missing some "From:"
671 processing that post has).
673 Mon Jan 24 22:26:06 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
675 * Got rid of the rest of the gcc -Wall warnings that I didn't have
676 time for on 1999-07-15 (and, it would seem, some new ones people
677 introduced since then). The primary ones were the warnings that
678 default prototypes were being used for [v]snprintf() and
679 str[n]casecmp(). As of right now, there are _no_ compilation
680 warnings except on dtimep.c-lexed (at least under AIX 4.1.5 and
683 Sun Jan 2 23:42:18 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
685 * Move mhtest from bindir to libdir.
687 * Move sendfiles from libdir to bindir.
689 * Updated sendfiles manpage to reflect this change.
691 * Added documentation for -build and -file switches to repl and
692 forw manpages (patch from Peter Maydell).
694 * Fixed interaction between specifying -cc in profile and -group on
697 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
699 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
700 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
701 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
704 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
706 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
707 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
708 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
709 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
710 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
711 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).
713 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
715 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
717 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
719 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
720 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
721 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
722 caught again. This works for now.
724 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
726 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
728 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
729 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
731 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
733 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
734 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
736 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
738 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
740 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
742 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
743 changes. Both need more cleanup.
745 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
747 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
748 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
749 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
750 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
751 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
754 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
756 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
757 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
758 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
760 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
761 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
764 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
766 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
767 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
768 to a directory on another device with more free space.
770 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
772 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
773 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
775 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
777 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
780 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
781 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
783 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
784 macros, regardless of platform.
786 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
787 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
789 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
790 with x-conversions=gzip.
792 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
794 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
797 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
798 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
799 implicit definition of ioctl().
801 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
802 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
803 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
804 want to mess with them.
806 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
808 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
809 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
811 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
812 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
814 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
815 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
816 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
818 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
819 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
820 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
822 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
825 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
828 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
829 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
832 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
833 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
836 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
837 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
841 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
843 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
844 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
845 preventing compilation on at least linux.
847 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
848 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
850 Thu Sep 09 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
852 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
854 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
855 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
856 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
857 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
859 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
860 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
862 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
864 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
866 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
868 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
869 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
871 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
873 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
874 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
876 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
877 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
878 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
879 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
881 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
882 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
884 Sat Jun 09 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
886 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
887 substitute it for mktemp if available.
889 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
891 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
892 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
895 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
897 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
899 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
901 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
902 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
904 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
905 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
906 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
908 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
909 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
910 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
912 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
913 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
914 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
916 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
917 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
920 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
921 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
923 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
924 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
926 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
929 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
930 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
931 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
933 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
934 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
936 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
937 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
938 <elleron@servtech.com>.
940 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
941 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
944 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
945 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
947 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
948 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
949 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
950 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
952 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
953 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
955 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
959 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
960 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
961 would not be changed.
963 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
964 one from the Apache web server.
966 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
967 (this should have been done a long time ago).
969 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
970 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
971 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
973 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
975 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
977 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
978 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
981 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
982 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
983 removes a bad race condition.
985 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
988 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
989 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
990 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
992 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
993 sequence information.
995 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
996 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
998 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
1001 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
1004 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
1006 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
1007 interpret 034 as octal.
1009 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
1011 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
1012 mhstore, and mhbuild.
1014 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
1015 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
1017 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
1018 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
1020 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
1021 in the c_cefile structure when building.
1023 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
1024 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
1026 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
1027 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
1028 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
1030 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
1031 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
1032 and mhshow. Updated man pages
1034 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
1036 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
1038 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
1039 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
1042 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
1044 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
1045 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
1047 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
1048 header field information.
1050 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
1051 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
1053 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
1054 values when parsing a content.
1056 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
1057 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
1059 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
1060 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
1062 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
1063 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1065 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
1066 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
1068 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
1070 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
1072 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
1074 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
1076 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
1077 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
1080 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
1081 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
1083 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
1084 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
1085 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
1086 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
1087 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
1088 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
1091 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1093 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
1094 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
1095 buffer length checks for this parameter.
1097 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
1098 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
1100 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1102 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
1103 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
1104 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
1105 of the limits on the length of command lines.
1107 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
1108 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
1111 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
1112 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
1113 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
1114 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
1117 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1119 * Released nmh-0.27.
1121 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
1122 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
1124 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
1125 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
1126 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
1127 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
1130 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
1131 mhbuild returns an error.
1133 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
1134 rename the draft file.
1136 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
1137 use a global variable.
1139 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
1140 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
1142 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
1143 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
1145 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
1146 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
1147 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
1149 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
1150 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
1152 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
1153 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
1156 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
1157 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
1160 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
1161 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
1163 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
1164 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
1165 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
1167 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
1168 to new function output_content_folder.
1170 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
1171 new function output_content_file.
1173 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
1174 to new function parse_format_string.
1176 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
1177 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
1178 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
1179 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
1181 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
1182 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
1183 message/external file from ftp.
1185 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
1186 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
1187 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
1189 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
1190 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
1193 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
1196 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
1197 new file mhstoresbr.c
1199 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
1202 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
1203 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
1205 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
1206 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
1208 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
1209 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
1210 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
1212 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
1214 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
1216 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
1217 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
1220 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
1221 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
1223 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
1226 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
1228 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1230 * Released nmh-0.26.
1232 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
1233 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
1234 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
1235 is still the same (dashstuffing).
1237 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
1238 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
1239 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
1240 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
1241 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
1243 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
1244 But it is not on by default.
1246 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
1247 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
1249 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
1251 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
1253 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
1255 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
1257 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
1258 number of the "cur" message when packing.
1260 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1262 * Released nmh-0.25.
1264 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
1265 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
1266 uses the original name of the library.
1268 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
1269 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
1272 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
1273 list_content and list_debug.
1275 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
1277 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
1278 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.
1280 1998-02-27 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1282 * Released nmh-0.24.
1284 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
1286 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
1287 are given, that order doesn't matter.
1289 * Fix bug in seq_list.c when realloc'ing for
1290 large sequence line.
1292 1998-02-23 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1294 * Released nmh-0.23.
1296 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
1298 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
1299 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan
1300 content, decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary
1301 string). I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
1303 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
1304 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
1307 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
1309 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
1311 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
1313 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
1314 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
1316 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
1317 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.
1319 * Add note to MACHINES file that on Linux, configure
1320 doesn't find the functions sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
1322 * Fix configuration for machines that don't have (or find)
1323 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
1325 1998-02-11 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1327 * Released nmh-0.22.
1329 * Add a configure check for sigsetjmp. Add some conditional
1330 #define's in h/signals.h in case it's not found.
1332 * Added additional notes about -auto switch in mhn man page.
1334 * Added note about MM_CHARSET environment variable to
1335 mh-profile(5) man page.
1337 * Fix signal problem in mhn.c (change setjmp/longjmp to
1338 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp).
1340 1998-02-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1342 * Released nmh-0.22-pre1.
1344 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
1345 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
1347 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
1349 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
1350 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
1351 entry point for parsing MIME files.
1353 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
1354 source message on the standard input.
1356 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
1358 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
1359 rather than -rfc934mode.
1361 * Fix mhbuild, so that Content-Description and RFC-822 comments
1362 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
1365 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
1366 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).
1368 * Restore HP specific code to zotnet/tws/lexstring.c. Apparently
1371 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1373 * Released nmh-0.21.
1375 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
1376 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.
1378 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what transfer
1381 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what character set
1382 to use for text contents.
1384 * Removed old hpux specific code from zotnet/tws/lexstring.c
1386 1998-02-02 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1388 * Released nmh-0.21-pre2.
1390 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
1392 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
1393 header fields as per RFC-2047.
1395 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
1396 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
1397 spaces between encoded word are.
1399 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
1401 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
1402 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
1404 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
1405 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
1406 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
1408 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
1410 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
1411 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
1413 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.
1415 * Added support for %(decode) to fmtdump.c.
1417 * check_charset() now accepts US-ASCII as a subset of any
1418 ISO-8859-X character set.
1420 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
1423 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
1424 permissions, not write permissions.
1426 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
1427 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
1429 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
1432 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1434 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
1436 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
1437 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
1439 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
1440 message contains valid character set.
1442 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
1443 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
1445 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
1446 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
1448 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
1449 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
1450 between an encoded word and normal text.
1452 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
1453 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
1455 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
1456 as a RFC-2047 header field.
1458 * The command install-mh now recognizes the switches -version
1461 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
1462 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
1465 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
1466 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
1468 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
1469 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
1471 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
1473 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1475 * Released nmh-0.20.
1477 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
1479 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.
1481 * Changed the default format file for mhl (mhl.format) to
1482 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
1483 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
1485 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
1486 and the To: line was missing.
1488 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
1490 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1492 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
1494 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
1495 watch the POP transaction.
1497 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
1498 first, and use it if available.
1500 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
1501 first, and use it if available.
1503 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1505 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
1507 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
1508 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
1509 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
1512 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
1513 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
1514 returns the state FLDPLUS.
1516 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
1517 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
1520 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
1522 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
1523 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
1525 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
1527 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
1528 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
1530 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
1531 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
1532 message to which you are replying.
1534 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
1535 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
1536 making group replies.
1538 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
1540 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1542 * Released nmh-0.19.
1544 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
1545 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
1547 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
1548 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
1549 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
1550 to the end of the man page.
1552 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
1553 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
1554 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
1555 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
1556 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
1557 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
1559 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
1562 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
1563 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
1564 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
1566 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
1567 the next available number above the message number you wish
1570 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
1571 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
1573 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
1574 file sbr/seq_print.c
1576 * flist will now update the current folder.
1578 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
1579 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
1580 but now undocumented.
1582 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
1585 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
1586 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
1588 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
1590 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
1591 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
1593 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1595 * Released nmh-0.18.
1597 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
1598 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
1599 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
1601 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
1602 retains the public/private status of sequences.
1604 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
1605 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
1606 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
1607 previous public/private status.
1609 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
1612 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
1615 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
1616 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
1617 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
1619 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
1620 take option to determine whether it should get current
1621 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
1622 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
1624 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
1626 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
1627 wait for stopped processes.
1629 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
1630 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
1632 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1634 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
1636 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
1637 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
1639 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
1640 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
1642 * Change the way that memory for message status is
1643 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
1644 the folder/message structure. This required changing
1645 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
1647 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
1650 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
1653 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
1655 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
1656 the debugging output.
1658 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
1659 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
1661 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1663 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
1665 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
1666 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
1668 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
1670 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
1671 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
1672 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
1673 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
1674 in the given sequence.
1676 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
1677 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
1678 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
1679 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
1680 subdirectories of a given directory.
1682 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
1683 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
1684 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
1686 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
1687 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
1689 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
1691 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
1694 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
1695 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
1696 fields are now calculated at runtime.
1698 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
1699 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
1700 are calculated at runtime.
1702 Sun Nov 30 19:14:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1704 * Released nmh-0.18-pre2.
1706 * Add paragraph to man page for install-mh and to INSTALL file
1707 about checking for global mh.profile.
1709 * Renamed m_find() to context_find().
1710 Renamed m_replace() to context_replace().
1711 Renamed m_delete() to context_del().
1712 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
1713 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
1714 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
1716 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
1717 adding message to folder itself.
1719 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
1720 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
1721 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
1724 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
1725 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
1728 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
1729 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
1730 is the same as the direct smtp code).
1732 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
1733 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
1735 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
1736 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
1737 code to use it yet).
1739 Thu Nov 13 18:42:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1741 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.
1743 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never
1744 called with a value larger than 30 mintues.
1746 * Fixed race condition in rmm and refile, so that
1747 context is updated before external rmmproc is called.
1749 * Removed all the OVERHEAD code.
1751 * Move code to add message to folder from refile.c
1754 Fri Jul 25 19:39:29 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1756 * Did some rearranging of the internals of inc.c.

1787 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
1789 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
1790 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
1792 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
1795 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
1796 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
1798 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
1799 number of refiled message.
1801 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
1803 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
1804 for return value of wait().

1814 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
1816 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
1817 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
1818 deal with binary messages, yet).
1820 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
1822 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
1824 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
1825 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
1826 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
1827 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
1828 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
1829 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
1831 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
1832 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
1834 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".

1846 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
1849 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
1852 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
1854 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to

1867 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
1869 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
1872 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
1873 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
1874 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
1876 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
1877 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
1879 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
1881 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since

1884 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
1885 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
1886 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
1887 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
1889 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
1890 and put in own subroutine.
1892 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
1893 and put in own subroutine.

1896 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and
1897 refile.c to use new routine.

1901 * Renamed m_seqok to seq_nameok.
1903 * Changed m_setunseen, msh, mshcmds, flist, and scan to use

1907 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
1908 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
1910 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
1913 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before

1928 selected messages to a sequence.
1930 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,
1933 Thu May 15 00:53:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1935 * Renamed function pack_folder to m_packfolder, and moved it
1936 from uip/folder.c into its own file sbr/m_packfolder.c
1938 Wed May 14 23:38:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1940 * Changed function m_gmsg to m_readfolder. Renamed file

1977 * Released nmh-0.13.
1979 * Changed mhpath so it doesn't abort if a message sequence
1980 such as "mhpath all" expands to more than 1000 messages.
1981 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
1982 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
1985 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
1986 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
1988 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1990 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if
1991 necessary. So `folders' can now handle more than 300 folders.
1993 Tue Apr 22 14:01:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1995 * Change configure to use a compile check to see if the tm struct

2024 will suppress the display of the message header.
2026 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
2028 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c
2029 and mshcmds.c, rather than hard coding in /bin/cat.
2031 * Add mhnproc to the list of `procs' in mh-profile.man.
2033 * Add configure test for lorder and tsort commands.
2035 * Commented out the padding in the `msgs` struct in h/mh.h

2038 500 elements at a time (rather than MAXFOLDERS / 5).
2040 * Add note to man page for mhmail that zero length messages are
2041 not sent. Need to use -body "" to send empty messages.
2043 * zotnet/mts/mts.c : compare character with '\0', not NULL.
2045 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
2047 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
2048 folder/message structure when done with folder.
2050 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is
2051 defined even if message is missing "From " line.
2053 Mon Mar 31 03:37:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2055 * Released nmh-0.10.

2075 * client.c: cast iaddr to int before comparing return value
2076 of inet_addr with NOTOK.
2078 Tue Mar 11 04:38:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2080 * Grep test for signal names was failing on some OS'es because

2113 * Released nmh-0.08.
2115 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
2116 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of

2124 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
2127 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
2128 rather than mmdf format.
2130 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
2131 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
2132 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
2133 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
2135 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
2137 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2139 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
2142 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2143 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2144 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
2146 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2147 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to

2150 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2152 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
2153 can still easily change this in config.h).
2155 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
2156 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
2157 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
2159 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2161 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather

2176 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
2178 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
2179 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
2182 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
2183 built-in FTP client in mhn.

2196 * Released nmh-0.06.
2198 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
2199 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
2201 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
2202 many such machines around anymore.
2204 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
2205 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
2207 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
2208 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
2210 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

2213 pre-generated version if necessary.
2215 * Released nmh-0.05.
2217 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
2218 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
2219 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
2220 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
2222 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
2223 be linked in one pass.
2225 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2227 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
2228 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
2230 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2232 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
2234 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2236 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
2237 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
2238 become the current folder.
2240 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2242 * Released nmh-0.04.

2249 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
2250 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
2251 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
2253 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2255 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
2256 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
2258 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2260 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
2261 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
2264 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
2265 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
2267 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2269 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
2270 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
2271 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
2272 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
2273 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
2274 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
2276 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2278 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
2279 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
2281 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
2282 a file (currently need to specify full path).
2284 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2286 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
2287 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
2289 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2291 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
2292 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
2293 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
2295 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2297 * Released nmh-0.03.
2299 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
2300 .mh_sequence file existed.
2302 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
2303 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
2305 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
2306 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
2309 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2311 * Changed flist option -unseen to -[no]all. Cleaned up
2314 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2316 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
2317 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
2318 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
2320 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2322 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
2323 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
2324 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
2326 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2328 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL
2329 and allocate its own buffer. Borrowed from zsh.
2331 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
2333 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2335 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
2336 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
2337 directory from where the source code is located.
2339 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2341 * Released nmh-0.02.

2355 * -compat switch from install-mh removed.
2357 * Changed the default POP port from "pop" to "pop3".

2361 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
2362 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
2363 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
2364 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
2365 rather than in script.
2367 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2369 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
2371 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with
2372 macro defined on Solaris.
2374 Thu Dec 26 02:50:15 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2376 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
2377 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
2379 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
2380 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
2381 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
2382 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
2385 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2387 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
2388 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.
2390 * Fixed configure test so that termcap variable ospeed is
2393 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2395 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
2397 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included
2398 in mhn.c. Changed md5 to use memset and memcpy.
2400 Fri Dec 20 02:29:37 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2402 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
2403 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
2405 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2407 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
2408 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
2409 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
2410 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
2411 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
2412 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
2414 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2416 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
2418 * Released nmh-0.01.
2420 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
2421 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
2422 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
2425 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2427 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
2430 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2432 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
2433 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
2435 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2437 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
2438 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
2439 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
2440 script to find_program.
2442 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2444 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
2445 speed up -recurse option.
2447 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
2448 yet, but it compiles :-)
2450 * Changed default location for install to
2451 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
2452 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
2453 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
2456 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
2457 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
2458 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
