1 Sun May 28 14:39:31 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
3 * Fixed m_getfld bug which caused segmentation faults when
4 incorporating messages which ended in multiple linefeeds crossing
7 Fri May 26 13:21:59 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
9 * msh has been unable to show MIME messages ever since 1.0. Alec
10 Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu> tracked down the problem to the
11 -show flag being passed to mhshow. mhshow is equivalent to the
12 old mhn -show, so we don't need the -show anymore. Removed it.
14 Fri May 12 02:51:21 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
16 * zotnet/bboards is not longer built by default. Goal is to move
17 the assorted functions in zotnet into sbr or some more logical
20 * Moved zotnet/mf to sbr, and changed mf.h references accordingly,
23 Thu May 11 02:21:34 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
25 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that both SRCS and OBJS aren't
26 seperately and redundantly defined, but so that OBJS is a
27 pattern-substituted version of SRCS with suffix .c -> .o. This
28 should make maintainability easier.
30 * Added section to MACHINES indicating what platforms nmh is known
31 to compile and work on, just to give users peace of mind, or
32 something. This is by no means complete or exhaustive, so add
33 whatever you know works.
35 Tue May 09 20:38:04 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
37 * Alphabetized Shantonu's $pop_kinds output on configure's "pop is
38 enabled" line. If POP3 is the only kind of POP enabled, say so,
39 rather than just saying "yes" (which is ambiguous).
41 * Fixed four warnings in Shantonu's new getpass.c. Needed to
42 #include <stdlib.h> for calloc(), <unistd.h> for ttyname(), and
43 "h/mh.h" for adios(). Also changed ch from char to int to get rid
44 of "comparison is always 1 due to limited range of data type" on EOF.
46 * Added steps to README.developers saying to change the version
47 number to X.Y.Z+dev. Did a little rearranging and changed the FTP
48 dir from /home/ftp to /var/ftp to reflect Doug's new machine.
50 * Changed configure.in to use gcc -Wall even without
51 --enable-debug, to prevent developers compiling optimized from
52 introducing warnings, and to give end-users a warm, fuzzy feeling
53 as they (hopefully) see no warnings come out (except perhaps on
54 the lex output file) even with -Wall.
56 * Renamed getpass() to nmh_getpass() since the prototype for
57 getpass() varies from OS to OS, and we want to _always_ use our
58 version of the function. Fixed all the callers to use
59 nmh_getpass() and added it to prototypes.h. Semi-arbitrarily
60 upped MAX_PASSWORD_LEN from 128 to 256. buf was being calloc()'d
61 and the memory leaked -- should have just been declared as static
62 char array. Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the
63 copyright message, as this version has been changed significantly
66 * Added "nmh-local functions to use in preference to OS versions"
67 section to README.developers (currently just says to use
68 nmh_getpass() instead of system getpass()).
70 * Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the copyright message
73 * Added mts.conf.5 page per Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s
76 This happens on solaris:
79 windex entry incorrect: mts.conf(5) not found.
80 No manual entry for mts.conf.
84 % echo ".so man5/mh-tailor.5" > mts.conf.5
86 done in the man5 directory. We need to add 'mts.conf.5' as a
87 reference sourcing mh-tailor.5.
89 Mon May 08 23:51:55 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
91 * Doug informed me that the way I had restored the "lost" version
92 histories was wrong, because `cvs checkout's of old versions of
93 nmh wouldn't work properly. It occurs to me that this could be
94 fixed by simply deleting those tags in the new-location *,v files,
95 but oh well. I'm putting everything back to the way Doug
96 originally had it. To get the old version history for a file that
97 used to be in the top directory, you'll need to "blindly" do a
98 `cvs log' there (even though you won't have a local copy of the
99 file in that directory). `cvs diff' will no longer be able to
100 diff pre-move versions vs. post-move versions -- you'll have to do
101 a lot of manual gyrations with `cvs checkout' and then use `diff'.
103 * I had alphabetized the --configure options in the --help output
104 awhile back, but Shantonu added --enable-apop just under
105 --enable-pop. Put it in alphabetical order and clarified what
106 --enable-apop does vs. --enable-pop and --with-krb4. Also changed
107 --with-mts help line from "mail transport agent" to "mail
108 transport agent/service" so the 's' in "mts" doesn't seem to come
111 * Added two steps to "releasing nmh" in README.developers. After
112 making the tarball, it's a good idea to diff the tree vs. the CVS
113 tree to make sure no files got left out, and then to chown the
114 files so that they're owned by root, preventing a Trojaning attack
115 by a malicious remote user with a UID matching yours.
117 * Changed DIFFERENCES to say that RPOP is not currently supported
118 rather than implying it by saying that APOP, KPOP, and POP[3] are.
120 Sun May 07 18:16:43 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
122 * Imported NetBSD version of getpass() and made extensive
123 revisions for compatibility with programs that pipe the password
124 to stdin, such as exmh.
126 * Removed tests for system ruserpass() which sometimes gave
127 phantom positive results. Also, bext to use internal functions if
128 we ever want to change .netrc format to something else, or access
131 Sat May 06 08:28:09 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
133 * Restored lost version histories for those moved files by doing a
134 manual `mv' in the CVSROOT on mhost. CVS badly needs a `cvs mv'
135 command so that you can move files (without having physical access
136 to the CVSROOT) without losing versioning. Put MACHINES back at
137 the top level as it needs to be read before building. Fixed DIST
138 variable in {.,docs}/Makefile.in to reflect that and to add
139 missing entry for "INSTALL" file.
141 Sat May 06 13:13:07 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
143 * Re-cleaned up nmh documentation (by moving things to docs
144 subdir) and modified Makefile & configure.in to handle the change.
146 Mon Apr 17 21:28:40 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
148 * Scott Blachowicz pointed out that the configure --help output
149 for --enable-masquerade was misleading. Clarified.
151 Mon Apr 17 19:01:00 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
153 * APOP support can be compiled in to inc and msgchk using
156 * To access an APOP host, specify -apop on the command line
157 along with any -host or -user option.
159 Fri Apr 14 23:10:44 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
161 * Upped the version number to 1.0.4+dev until the next nmh release.
163 * Added a "releasing nmh" section to README.developers, while the
164 process was fresh in my mind.
166 Fri Apr 14 18:21:34 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
168 * Added new files README.developers, ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6, and
169 ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html to DIST target in Makefile.in.
171 * Released nmh-1.0.4.
173 Tue Apr 11 21:37:03 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
175 * Applied Brian Campbell <bacam@tardis.ed.ac.uk>'s mhn.defaults.sh
178 It appears that there shouldn't be quotes around the %s in the
179 iso-8859-1 charset entry; xterm passes the remaining arguments
180 to the program, quoting them means that xterm thinks they're
181 part of the program's name.
183 This %s isn't the same as the "Insert content subtype" one from
184 mhshow-show-* -- it doesn't come from MIME headers and is safe not
187 Sun Apr 09 13:03:59 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
189 * added check in fmt_compile() to handle a single-character
190 format string. fmt_compile() depends on having an array of
191 format characters with an empty item at the end. A
192 single-character format would cause programs using this
193 function to segfault because the algorithm used to decide on
194 the length of the array mistakenly created a single-item array
195 when the format string was one character. This eventually
196 caused problems when the program attempted to test item+1
199 Thu Apr 06 21:53:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
201 * Richard Coleman threw out a lot of old MH-specific files in nmh.
202 Much of the stuff, indeed, is not worth saving, but there are
203 nuggets that are very worthwhile, and should probably be added
204 back in. Most important, IMHO, are the MH change logs, as they
205 can help answer questions like "Why is this code like this?" or
206 "How long has this been broken?" or "What was this ever used for?"
208 I've added a new file to the nmh tree called
209 ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6. It's cobbled together from the
210 mh-6.8.4/papers/mh*/MHCHANGES files. I've re-ordered the entries
211 to go from newest at the top to oldest at the bottom to match the
212 ChangeLog convention. Unfortunately there are no change logs for
213 versions of MH prior to 3 in the MH tar files available at
214 <ftp://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/mh>. Also, it appears to me that there
215 are MH-6.6 changes that aren't documented in the logs.
217 I've also added ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html. This is
218 based on mh-6.8.4/papers/changes/mh-changes.ms. The nroff format
219 and its "catman"-type output are a pain to deal with, but I was
220 loath to throw away the formatting, so I converted the file to
221 HTML. The only actual markup in the body are the "<B>" and "<U>"
222 tags, and "<" and ">" instead of '<' and '>', so it's quite
223 doable to view the file in plain ASCII mode as well. Note that
224 some of the changes this file documents as having been made in
225 MH-6.8.4 may not be present in nmh -- Richard started with 6.8.3
226 and later put in certain 6.8.4 stuff.
228 Wed Apr 05 21:09:28 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
230 * Applied Eric Schnoebelen <eric@cirr.com>'s mhshowsbr.c patch
231 fixing apparent bugs in Dan Winship's new security quoting code:
233 Since upgrading, I've been getting the following errors
234 while attempting to process some MIME messages:
236 (1) Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
241 (2) line 1/10 (END)Segmentation fault (core dumped)
243 (2) appears to be due to the testing of an unset pointer in
244 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux(). (1) appears to be caused by
245 mis-quoting a filename being handed to the shell in
246 mhshowsbr.c:show_content_aux().
248 Resolving the pointer reference issue in
249 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux() turned up a similar mis-quoting
250 problem in the routine.
252 Tue Mar 28 16:17:39 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
254 * Applied Todd.Miller@courtesan.com's patch to dropsbr.c to
255 prevent core dumping on packf. Here's the note from his message:
257 Since sizeof(buffer) == sizeof(tmpbuffer) packf will dump
258 core on a file w/o a From line with a line >= BUFSIZ.
259 I noticed this because I had a junk file in my mail
262 Fri Mar 17 11:59:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
264 * wesley.craig@umich.edu did not document his previous KPOP patch,
265 so I did so, and asked him to check what I wrote. Unfortunately
266 he didn't notice my misunderstanding of his patch. I wrote that
267 if you #define POPSERVICE "kpop", inc and msgchk will use KPOP
268 exclusively, but if you leave it as "pop3", you can use Wesley's
269 new -kpop switch on a given invocation. Instead, however, -kpop
270 turned out to be necessary on every invocation, and a KPOP user
271 complained. Applied Wesley's new patch, which makes things work
272 like I thought his original patch did. After that, did one more
273 clarifying pass to the documentation in inc.man and msgchk.man.
275 Wed Mar 15 18:45:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
277 * When I fixed the long-standing makedir() bugs in January, I had
278 the code call strtoul(..., 0), which I believed to be safe as all
279 modes specified as ASCII constants in the nmh code started with a
280 leading zero (signifying octal), which I did as it would work if
281 internal constants were ever changed to hex. Unfortunately I was
282 unaware of the "Folder-Protect:" .mh_profile entry, which
283 mh-profile.man documents as an octal-only constant, with no
284 leading zero required. I've changed the strtoul() call to an
285 atooi() call and removed the misleading leading zeroes on the
286 ASCII octal constants in the code and man pages. Also changed the
287 "Folder-Protect:" example in the man page to something more
288 interesting than a duplication of the default.
290 * When I added my --enable-masquerade option, you'll note that I
291 didn't make it --enable-nmh-masquerade. I find the --enable-nmh-*
292 options too wordy and I'm not sure why Richard went that route.
293 I've renamed them to just --enable-*, but the old versions will
294 still work as well (they just aren't advertised).
296 * Added a line to the "nmh configuration" output saying whether
299 * Added a new README.developers file. From the file:
301 This file is intended to provide a few tips for anyone doing
302 development on nmh. Developers who learn things "the hard
303 way" about the nmh codebase (as opposed to local info best
304 encoded in a comment) are encouraged to share their wisdom
307 Currently the topics are "autoconf files" and "directory structure".
309 Tue Mar 14 12:41:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
311 * Applied, after some finessing,
312 Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s --with-smtpservers patch:
314 Here's a patch that allows you to add
316 --with-smtpservers=<some.host.name>
318 to the ./configure command line to set the "servers: " line in
319 etc/mts.conf. Around here, we use "mailhost" so that all
320 machines in the current domain just talk to a central machine
321 and nothing else runs an MTA. Now, I can use
323 --with-smtpservers=mailhost
325 instead of having to remember to fix this by hand (and often
326 forgetting to do so!).
328 * Inspired by Simon's patch, added an --enable-masquerade option
329 to configure. It will set the "masquerade:" line of mts.conf.
330 You may specify a subset of the three types of masquerading, like
331 --enable-masquerade="draft_from mmailid", or leave off explicit
332 arguments to enable all three types.
334 * Alphabetized the --enable and --with options in configure.in and
335 INSTALL and added documentation of the two new options to the latter.
337 * Added new dependency for mts.conf: Makefile. If this isn't
338 done, then when you reconfigure nmh with new values for
339 --enable-masquerade or --with-smtpservers, you'll fail to get an
340 updated copy of mts.conf.
342 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtimep.lex patch:
344 It seems that some MUA's didn't handle y2k very well - ELM
345 seems to be one of them, and Ultrix's DXmail (based on MH!).
346 I've got a few emails this month that look like:
348 575 Jan 00 Xxxxxx Xxxx 3603 ...
350 22+ Jan 00 Xxx Xxxxx 1771 ...
352 The first has "15 Jan 100" as the date and the second has
353 "19 Jan 00" as the date. The following works around this so
354 that scan, show, sortm, etc work ok.
356 I put Simon's patch under the control of a new #define called
357 FIX_NON_Y2K_COMPLIANT_MUA_DATES. There's some commentary in
358 acconfig.h about when you might not want to #define it.
360 * Created new dtimep.c-lexed with Simon's change using dtimep.lex
361 lexed on Solaris 2.6. Added missing dependency in
362 zotnet/tws/Makefile.in for dtimep.c: dtimep.c-lexed.
364 * Added scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD format files.
366 Mon Mar 13 21:32:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
368 * Applied Sullivan N. Beck <sbeck@cise.ufl.edu>'s mhshow-suffix patch:
370 With the patch below, you can add lines like:
372 mhshow-suffix-application/msword: .doc
373 mhshow-suffix-application/PostScript: .ps
375 to the mhn.defaults file to append the given suffix to a
376 scratch file. This allows applications which require a
377 certain suffix to run properly.
379 * Removed -force_html from lynx entry in mhn.defaults.sh (I
380 believe older versions of lynx lack that option) and added
381 "mhshow-suffix-text/html: .html".
383 * Modified username_extension masquerading to only use the
384 extended address on generated [Resent-]From: lines and SMTP
385 envelope From:. With Neil's original implementation, nmh's global
386 idea of the username was changed, which would result in inc lying
387 and saying you had no new mail because it was looking for a
388 mailbox called, for instance, "dan-nmh" (where username was "dan"
389 and $USERNAME_EXTENSION was "-nmh").
391 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtime.c patch:
393 There's a wrap-around problem that affects the implementation
394 of Zeller's congruence in dtime.c. This causes the day-of-week
395 calculations to fail for dates after Feb 29, 2000 (probably up
396 until some year far in the future).
398 Mon Mar 06 12:20:20 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
400 * Applied Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s msh.c patch:
402 I finally tracked down the problem in msh that was causing
403 errors whenever I tried to examine a 'mmdf' style mailbox.
405 It turns out that not enough memory was being allocated with
406 calloc(), causing memory pointers to be overwritten and
409 Fri Mar 03 16:07:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
411 * Changed the new "plussed_user" option to mts.conf's
412 "masquerade:" to "username_extension" after getting feedback from
413 qmail users, who use '-' as a separator rather than '+'. Removed
414 checking of $USERPLUS variable. Now check $USERNAME_EXTENSION,
415 which needs to include the appropriate separator for your MTA
416 ('-', '+', or whatever) as its first character.
418 Thu Mar 02 23:04:30 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
420 * Added a new "boolean" type to mh.h and TRUE and FALSE constants.
422 * Added a note to DIFFERENCES stating that it's out-of-date
423 (Richard was the last one to update it) and that we should
424 consider only documenting incompatibilities with MH there.
426 * Implemented (and documented) a third kind of username
427 masquerading: "plussed user" masquerading. This one was suggested
428 by Neil Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>. It's based on sendmail's
429 "plussed user" feature, where mail sent to <user>+<string> will be
430 delivered to <user>. When it's enabled, it's controlled by the
431 $USERPLUS environment variable. How is it enabled? Well, that
434 * Renamed the "mmailid:" setting in mts.conf to "masquerade:", and
435 changed it so that rather than being a boolean, it can be set to
436 any combination of the three values "draft_from", "mmailid", and
437 "plussed_user". Thus it is now possible to enable the three types
438 of masquerading individually.
440 * Fixed a bug with "mmailid" masquerading (dating back to MH?)
441 where if it was turned on, ','s would no longer be considered
442 GECOS field delimiters.
444 Wed Mar 01 23:30:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
446 * Changed the GECOS-field '&' translation behavior to be
447 controlled by the BSD42 #define rather than GCOS_HACK, since it's
448 apparently always appropriate on OSes where BSD42 is #defined, and
449 never appropriate on any other OSes. Thanks to Kimmo Suominen for
450 responding to my "What is this code here for?" comment in mts.c
451 and explaining the feature.
453 Mon Feb 28 21:50:29 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
455 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3+dev (ideally this should be
456 done by whoever makes a release tar file, immediately after doing
459 * Applied Paul Fox <pgf-spam@foxharp.boston.ma.us>'s scansbr.c
460 patch, posted to comp.mail.mh, which he says prevents loss of mail
461 when inc'ing into a full filesystem.
463 * Changed "echo > stamp-h.in" in Makefile.in to "date > stamp-h.in"
464 so that stamp-h.in will be different each time configure.in and
465 related files are changed, making it easier to check it in (which
466 is necessary to prevent unnecessary autoconf calls).
468 * My declaration of initgroups() in slocal.c to eliminate the "no
469 prototype" warning wasn't portable (FreeBSD 3.[23] choked). Now
470 use AC_EGREP_HEADER to see where initgroups() is declared, if
473 Sun Feb 20 12:17:15 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
475 * Fix security hole in mhshowsbr.c which allowed untrusted shell
478 * Released nmh 1.0.3.
480 Thu Feb 10 10:54:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
482 * Oops. %-escapes on mhstore lines in mhn.defaults.sh should not
483 be surrounded by single quotes, as a shell is not spawned when
484 just saving files, and the filenames will end up with literal
485 quotes embedded in them.
487 Fri Feb 04 12:29:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
489 * Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
490 got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
491 the -help output. One theory is that they were making reference
492 to the fact that clearly you know about the -help option since
493 you're currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea
494 to overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
495 supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
498 The other theory is that because you can say something like
499 "mhstore -" and get "mhstore: - ambiguous. It matches" followed
500 by the same list of switches you get with -help, they were saying
501 you can "sorta" abbreviate "-help" as "-". You don't get the
502 "Usage:" string, though, so it's not really the same thing.
504 Thu Feb 03 17:52:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
506 * Applied wesley.craig@umich.edu's KPOP patches. According to him:
508 The following patch fixes a problem with requesting a
509 service key for a machine that has multiple 'A' records. It
510 also makes "-kpop" a command line option, for users who
511 would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".
513 Did no testing of the new features, as I don't have access to a
516 * Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
518 * Modified INSTALL and config.h.in to reflect the new -kpop feature.
520 Fri Jan 28 17:39:24 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
522 * All %-escapes in mhn.defaults that actually expand to something
523 should be surrounded by single quotes. Added quotes to the ones
524 in mhn.defaults.sh that were missing them.
526 * Added check for lynx to write mhshow-show-text/html line in
529 Thu Jan 27 12:22:25 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
531 * makedir() had multiple bugs dating back to MH. An octal
532 constant was apparently being interpreted as decimal, resulting in
533 directories with no user read or execute permissions, making
534 nested directory creation fail. And there wasn't even an
535 _attempt_ to set desired permissions (e.g. from "Folder-Protect:"
536 in .mh_profile) on the outer directories of a nested directory.
538 * A second `make install' would always fail because the check for
539 whether mh_profile.5 existed was written incorrectly.
541 Wed Jan 26 02:22:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
543 * Added documentation on both types of masquerading to post's man
546 Tue Jan 25 22:58:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
548 * Doug's portability fix of my setgid inc autodetection had a
549 caching bug -- if you re-ran configure, uip/Makefile would be
550 corrupted, and installation would bomb out on OSes where inc needs
553 * Implemented a new kind of email address masquerading. Usually,
554 when a user writes a custom "From:" header in a draft, nmh uses it
555 rather than generating one. However, the user's true address is
556 used in the SMTP envelope "From:" and is revealed in the "Sender:"
557 header. Now, when mmailid is set to non-zero, the envelope
558 "From:" uses the address specified in the draft "From:" header,
559 and there is no "Sender:" header. This is useful when sending on
560 behalf of a remote POP3 account or when remote mail robots
561 incorrectly use the envelope "From:" in preference to the body
562 "From:". This processing has only been implemented for post, not
563 for the undocumented spost (which was already missing some "From:"
564 processing that post has).
566 Mon Jan 24 22:26:06 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
568 * Got rid of the rest of the gcc -Wall warnings that I didn't have
569 time for on 1999-07-15 (and, it would seem, some new ones people
570 introduced since then). The primary ones were the warnings that
571 default prototypes were being used for [v]snprintf() and
572 str[n]casecmp(). As of right now, there are _no_ compilation
573 warnings except on dtimep.c-lexed (at least under AIX 4.1.5 and
576 Sun Jan 2 23:42:18 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
578 * Move mhtest from bindir to libdir.
580 * Move sendfiles from libdir to bindir.
582 * Updated sendfiles manpage to reflect this change.
584 * Added documentation for -build and -file switches to repl and
585 forw manpages (patch from Peter Maydell).
587 * Fixed interaction between specifying -cc in profile and -group on
590 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
592 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
593 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
594 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
597 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
599 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
600 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
601 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
602 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
603 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
604 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).
606 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
608 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
610 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
612 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
613 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
614 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
615 caught again. This works for now.
617 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
619 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
621 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
622 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
624 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
626 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
627 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
629 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
631 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
633 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
635 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
636 changes. Both need more cleanup.
638 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
640 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
641 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
642 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
643 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
644 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
647 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
649 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
650 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
651 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
653 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
654 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
657 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
659 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
660 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
661 to a directory on another device with more free space.
663 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
665 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
666 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
668 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
670 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
673 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
674 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
676 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
677 macros, regardless of platform.
679 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
680 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
682 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
683 with x-conversions=gzip.
685 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
687 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
690 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
691 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
692 implicit definition of ioctl().
694 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
695 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
696 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
697 want to mess with them.
699 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
701 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
702 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
704 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
705 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
707 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
708 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
709 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
711 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
712 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
713 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
715 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
718 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
721 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
722 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
725 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
726 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
729 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
730 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
734 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
736 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
737 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
738 preventing compilation on at least linux.
740 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
741 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
743 Thu Sep 09 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
745 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
747 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
748 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
749 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
750 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
752 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
753 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
755 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
757 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
759 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
761 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
762 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
764 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
766 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
767 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
769 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
770 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
771 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
772 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
774 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
775 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
777 Sat Jun 09 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
779 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
780 substitute it for mktemp if available.
782 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
784 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
785 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
788 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
790 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
792 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
794 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
795 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
797 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
798 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
799 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
801 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
802 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
803 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
805 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
806 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
807 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
809 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
810 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
813 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
814 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
816 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
817 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
819 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
822 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
823 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
824 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
826 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
827 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
829 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
830 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
831 <elleron@servtech.com>.
833 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
834 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
837 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
838 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
840 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
841 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
842 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
843 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
845 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
846 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
848 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
852 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
853 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
854 would not be changed.
856 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
857 one from the Apache web server.
859 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
860 (this should have been done a long time ago).
862 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
863 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
864 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
866 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
868 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
870 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
871 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
874 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
875 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
876 removes a bad race condition.
878 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
881 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
882 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
883 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
885 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
886 sequence information.
888 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
889 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
891 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
894 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
897 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
899 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
900 interpret 034 as octal.
902 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
904 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
905 mhstore, and mhbuild.
907 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
908 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
910 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
911 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
913 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
914 in the c_cefile structure when building.
916 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
917 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
919 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
920 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
921 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
923 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
924 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
925 and mhshow. Updated man pages
927 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
929 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
931 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
932 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
935 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
937 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
938 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
940 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
941 header field information.
943 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
944 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
946 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
947 values when parsing a content.
949 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
950 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
952 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
953 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
955 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
956 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
958 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
959 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
961 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
963 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
965 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
967 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
969 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
970 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
973 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
974 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
976 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
977 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
978 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
979 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
980 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
981 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
984 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
986 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
987 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
988 buffer length checks for this parameter.
990 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
991 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
993 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
995 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
996 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
997 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
998 of the limits on the length of command lines.
1000 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
1001 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
1004 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
1005 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
1006 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
1007 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
1010 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1012 * Released nmh-0.27.
1014 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
1015 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
1017 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
1018 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
1019 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
1020 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
1023 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
1024 mhbuild returns an error.
1026 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
1027 rename the draft file.
1029 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
1030 use a global variable.
1032 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
1033 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
1035 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
1036 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
1038 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
1039 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
1040 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
1042 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
1043 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
1045 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
1046 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
1049 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
1050 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
1053 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
1054 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
1056 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
1057 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
1058 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
1060 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
1061 to new function output_content_folder.
1063 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
1064 new function output_content_file.
1066 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
1067 to new function parse_format_string.
1069 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
1070 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
1071 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
1072 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
1074 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
1075 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
1076 message/external file from ftp.
1078 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
1079 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
1080 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
1082 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
1083 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
1086 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
1089 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
1090 new file mhstoresbr.c
1092 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
1095 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
1096 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
1098 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
1099 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
1101 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
1102 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
1103 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
1105 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
1107 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
1109 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
1110 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
1113 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
1114 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
1116 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
1119 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
1121 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1123 * Released nmh-0.26.
1125 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
1126 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
1127 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
1128 is still the same (dashstuffing).
1130 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
1131 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
1132 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
1133 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
1134 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
1136 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
1137 But it is not on by default.
1139 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
1140 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
1142 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
1144 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
1146 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
1148 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
1150 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
1151 number of the "cur" message when packing.
1153 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1155 * Released nmh-0.25.
1157 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
1158 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
1159 uses the original name of the library.
1161 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
1162 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
1165 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
1166 list_content and list_debug.
1168 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
1170 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
1171 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.
1173 1998-02-27 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1175 * Released nmh-0.24.
1177 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
1179 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
1180 are given, that order doesn't matter.
1182 * Fix bug in seq_list.c when realloc'ing for
1183 large sequence line.
1185 1998-02-23 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1187 * Released nmh-0.23.
1189 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
1191 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
1192 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan
1193 content, decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary
1194 string). I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
1196 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
1197 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
1200 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
1202 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
1204 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
1206 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
1207 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
1209 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
1210 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.
1212 * Add note to MACHINES file that on Linux, configure
1213 doesn't find the functions sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
1215 * Fix configuration for machines that don't have (or find)
1216 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
1218 1998-02-11 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1220 * Released nmh-0.22.
1222 * Add a configure check for sigsetjmp. Add some conditional
1223 #define's in h/signals.h in case it's not found.
1225 * Added additional notes about -auto switch in mhn man page.
1227 * Added note about MM_CHARSET environment variable to
1228 mh-profile(5) man page.
1230 * Fix signal problem in mhn.c (change setjmp/longjmp to
1231 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp).
1233 1998-02-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1235 * Released nmh-0.22-pre1.
1237 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
1238 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
1240 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
1242 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
1243 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
1244 entry point for parsing MIME files.
1246 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
1247 source message on the standard input.
1249 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
1251 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
1252 rather than -rfc934mode.
1254 * Fix mhbuild, so that Content-Description and RFC-822 comments
1255 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
1258 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
1259 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).
1261 * Restore HP specific code to zotnet/tws/lexstring.c. Apparently
1264 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1266 * Released nmh-0.21.
1268 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
1269 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.
1271 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what transfer
1274 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what character set
1275 to use for text contents.
1277 * Removed old hpux specific code from zotnet/tws/lexstring.c
1279 1998-02-02 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1281 * Released nmh-0.21-pre2.
1283 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
1285 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
1286 header fields as per RFC-2047.
1288 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
1289 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
1290 spaces between encoded word are.
1292 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
1294 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
1295 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
1297 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
1298 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
1299 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
1301 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
1303 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
1304 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
1306 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.
1308 * Added support for %(decode) to fmtdump.c.
1310 * check_charset() now accepts US-ASCII as a subset of any
1311 ISO-8859-X character set.
1313 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
1316 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
1317 permissions, not write permissions.
1319 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
1320 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
1322 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
1325 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1327 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
1329 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
1330 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
1332 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
1333 message contains valid character set.
1335 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
1336 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
1338 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
1339 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
1341 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
1342 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
1343 between an encoded word and normal text.
1345 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
1346 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
1348 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
1349 as a RFC-2047 header field.
1351 * The command install-mh now recognizes the switches -version
1354 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
1355 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
1358 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
1359 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
1361 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
1362 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
1364 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
1366 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1368 * Released nmh-0.20.
1370 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
1372 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.
1374 * Changed the default format file for mhl (mhl.format) to
1375 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
1376 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
1378 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
1379 and the To: line was missing.
1381 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
1383 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1385 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
1387 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
1388 watch the POP transaction.
1390 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
1391 first, and use it if available.
1393 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
1394 first, and use it if available.
1396 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1398 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
1400 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
1401 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
1402 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
1405 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
1406 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
1407 returns the state FLDPLUS.
1409 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
1410 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
1413 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
1415 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
1416 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
1418 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
1420 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
1421 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
1423 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
1424 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
1425 message to which you are replying.
1427 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
1428 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
1429 making group replies.
1431 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
1433 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1435 * Released nmh-0.19.
1437 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
1438 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
1440 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
1441 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
1442 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
1443 to the end of the man page.
1445 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
1446 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
1447 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
1448 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
1449 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
1450 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
1452 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
1455 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
1456 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
1457 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
1459 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
1460 the next available number above the message number you wish
1463 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
1464 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
1466 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
1467 file sbr/seq_print.c
1469 * flist will now update the current folder.
1471 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
1472 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
1473 but now undocumented.
1475 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
1478 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
1479 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
1481 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
1483 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
1484 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
1486 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1488 * Released nmh-0.18.
1490 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
1491 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
1492 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
1494 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
1495 retains the public/private status of sequences.
1497 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
1498 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
1499 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
1500 previous public/private status.
1502 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
1505 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
1508 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
1509 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
1510 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
1512 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
1513 take option to determine whether it should get current
1514 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
1515 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
1517 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
1519 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
1520 wait for stopped processes.
1522 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
1523 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
1525 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1527 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
1529 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
1530 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
1532 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
1533 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
1535 * Change the way that memory for message status is
1536 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
1537 the folder/message structure. This required changing
1538 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
1540 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
1543 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
1546 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
1548 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
1549 the debugging output.
1551 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
1552 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
1554 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1556 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
1558 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
1559 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
1561 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
1563 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
1564 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
1565 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
1566 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
1567 in the given sequence.
1569 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
1570 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
1571 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
1572 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
1573 subdirectories of a given directory.
1575 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
1576 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
1577 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
1579 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
1580 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
1582 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
1584 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
1587 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
1588 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
1589 fields are now calculated at runtime.
1591 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
1592 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
1593 are calculated at runtime.
1595 Sun Nov 30 19:14:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1597 * Released nmh-0.18-pre2.
1599 * Add paragraph to man page for install-mh and to INSTALL file
1600 about checking for global mh.profile.
1602 * Renamed m_find() to context_find().
1603 Renamed m_replace() to context_replace().
1604 Renamed m_delete() to context_del().
1605 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
1606 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
1607 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
1609 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
1610 adding message to folder itself.
1612 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
1613 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
1614 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
1617 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
1618 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
1621 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
1622 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
1623 is the same as the direct smtp code).
1625 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
1626 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
1628 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
1629 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
1630 code to use it yet).
1632 Thu Nov 13 18:42:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1634 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.
1636 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never
1637 called with a value larger than 30 mintues.
1639 * Fixed race condition in rmm and refile, so that
1640 context is updated before external rmmproc is called.
1642 * Removed all the OVERHEAD code.
1644 * Move code to add message to folder from refile.c
1647 Fri Jul 25 19:39:29 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1649 * Did some rearranging of the internals of inc.c.
1651 * Make -inplace the default for anno, forw, dist, and repl.
1653 * Changed --enable-smtp to --with-mts={smtp,sendmail}
1655 * Created new directory mts/sendmail for direct sendmail
1656 interface (although it currently still uses SMTP).
1658 * Removed all the TMA (trusted mail agent) code
1660 * Removed all the TTYD (terminal access daemon) code
1662 * Removed all the MF (uucp filtering) code.
1664 * Removed all the code for BERK.
1666 * Removed all the code for stand-alone delivery (MHMTS).
1668 * Split the file mts/sendmail/smail.c into sendmail.c and
1669 smtp.c. Changed the name of the directory to mts/smtp.
1671 * Changed autoconf to use @sysconfdir@ for location of
1672 configuration files.
1674 * Changed #define in mhn.c from FTP to BUILTIN_FTP.
1676 Mon Jul 21 03:22:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1678 * Released nmh-0.17.
1680 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
1682 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
1683 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
1685 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
1688 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
1689 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
1691 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
1692 number of refiled message.
1694 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
1696 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
1697 for return value of wait().
1699 * Change configure to also check /bin for "more".
1701 Sat Jul 12 00:02:23 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1703 * Released nmh-0.16.
1705 Mon Jun 23 20:13:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1707 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
1709 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
1710 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
1711 deal with binary messages, yet).
1713 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
1715 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
1717 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
1718 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
1719 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
1720 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
1721 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
1722 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
1724 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
1725 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
1727 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
1728 From MH-6.8.4 patch.
1730 * Fix double free of ctinfo in user_content when using
1731 #forw with single message. From John MacMillan (and
1734 * Changed -mhnproc switch for show, to -showmimeproc.
1736 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".
1738 * Added "mime" option to "whatnow", which calls the program
1739 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
1742 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
1745 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
1747 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
1748 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
1749 which used unsigned chars by default.
1751 Sat Jun 21 01:21:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1753 * Released nmh-0.15.
1755 * Added new form "scan.unseen" to distribution. It marks messages
1756 which are in any sequence in Unseen-Sequence.
1758 * Do some rearranging of date/time code in zotnet/tws/dtime.c
1760 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
1762 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
1765 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
1766 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
1767 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
1769 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
1770 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
1772 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
1774 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
1775 they conflict with defines on AIX.
1777 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
1778 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
1779 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
1780 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
1782 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
1783 and put in own subroutine.
1785 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
1786 and put in own subroutine.
1788 * Moved code to remove messages from folder into own

1938 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
1940 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
1941 folder/message structure when done with folder.
1943 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is

2020 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
2021 rather than mmdf format.
2023 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
2024 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
2025 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with

2039 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2040 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to

2043 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2045 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
2046 can still easily change this in config.h).
2048 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
2049 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
2050 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
2052 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

2069 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
2071 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
2072 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
2075 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
2076 built-in FTP client in mhn.

2089 * Released nmh-0.06.
2091 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
2092 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
2094 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
2095 many such machines around anymore.
2097 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
2098 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
2100 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
2101 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
2103 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

2106 pre-generated version if necessary.
2108 * Released nmh-0.05.
2110 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
2111 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
2112 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
2113 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
2115 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
2116 be linked in one pass.
2118 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2120 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
2121 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
2123 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2125 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
2127 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2129 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
2130 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
2131 become the current folder.
2133 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2135 * Released nmh-0.04.

2142 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
2143 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
2144 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
2146 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2148 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
2149 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
2151 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2153 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
2154 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
2157 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
2158 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
2160 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2162 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
2163 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
2164 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
2165 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
2166 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
2167 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
2169 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2171 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
2172 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
2174 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
2175 a file (currently need to specify full path).
2177 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2179 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
2180 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
2182 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2184 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
2185 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
2186 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
2188 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2190 * Released nmh-0.03.
2192 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
2193 .mh_sequence file existed.
2195 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
2196 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
2198 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
2199 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
2202 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2204 * Changed flist option -unseen to -[no]all. Cleaned up
2207 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2209 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
2210 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
2211 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
2213 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2215 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
2216 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
2217 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
2219 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2221 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL
2222 and allocate its own buffer. Borrowed from zsh.
2224 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
2226 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2228 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
2229 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
2230 directory from where the source code is located.
2232 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2234 * Released nmh-0.02.

2254 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
2255 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
2256 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
2257 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
2258 rather than in script.
2260 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2262 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
2264 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with

2269 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
2270 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
2272 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
2273 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
2274 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
2275 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop

2295 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
2296 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
2298 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2300 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
2301 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
2302 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
2303 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
2304 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
2305 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
2307 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2309 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
2311 * Released nmh-0.01.

2318 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2320 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
2323 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2325 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
2326 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
2328 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2330 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
2331 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
2332 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
2333 script to find_program.
2335 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2337 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
2338 speed up -recurse option.
2340 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
2341 yet, but it compiles :-)
2343 * Changed default location for install to
2344 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
2345 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
2346 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
2349 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
2350 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
2351 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
