1 2008-05-04 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
3 * Fixes ported from trunk:
5 * bug #23163: various minor fixes for the benefit of
6 older Unixes (specifically SunOS 4):
7 reintroduce strerror() substitute implementation
8 provide memmove() substitute implementation
10 * bug #23163: fix accidentally broken 'build outside
11 source directory' feature
13 * bug #23162: sbr/dtime.c: fix stray HAVE_TM_GMTOFF that
14 wasn't updated to the new macro name.
16 2008-04-30 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
18 * Fixes ported from trunk:
20 * mts/smtp/smtp.c: provide a callback for SASL_CB_AUTHNAME
21 (fixes issue with SASL sending the wrong username in some
22 circumstances). Thanks to <der_wachtmeister@freenet.de>
25 * Revert previous attempt at fix for SASL issue as it
26 is the wrong approach.
28 * Fix in correct manner, by making sm_rrecord() and thus
29 sm_hear() set the length of the reply string correctly
30 (the SASL libraries now care if you pass in the wrong
33 * Correct various places in smtp.c where the reply string
34 might not have been correctly NUL-terminated. Includes a
35 fix for a particularly nasty and long standing screwup
36 where the buffer length counting in smhear() was totally
37 broken for continued lines from the server.
39 2008-04-29 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
41 * Port fix from trunk for SASL not working with newer libsasl.
43 2008-04-27 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
45 * Released nmh-1.3 RC1.
47 2008-04-11 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
49 * acconfig.h, configure.in, sbr/dtime.c, sbr/pidwait.c,
50 uip/mhshowsbr.c, uip/rcvtty.c, uip/slocal.c, uip/termsbr.c:
51 move most remaining macros out of acconfig.h which is an
52 obsolete feature of autoconf
54 2008-04-05 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
56 * bug #18655: fix use of admonish() for a fatal error (should
57 be adios(); only actual effect would be wrong exit code).
58 Thanks to Craig Leres for spotting this.
60 2008-04-05 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
62 * bug #20028 (Debian bug 399271): fix code assuming that pointer
63 differences were 32 bits -- thanks to Dean Gaudet for the patch.
65 2008-01-25 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
67 * uip/mhshowsbr.c (show_all_messages): Be more generous when parsing
70 2007-11-04 Joel Reicher <joel@panacea.null.org>
72 * Changed done() link overriding to function pointer. Return type
73 is now void so that exit() can be used as done() callback. Dead
74 code return from all done()s removed, with return 1 in main()
75 following done() (should never be reached).
77 2007-08-21 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
79 * Red Hat Bug #253342: inc.c, utils.c, utils.h: When inc is run with
80 the -silent flag, don't exit(1) for no apparent reason.
82 2007-03-12 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
84 * bug #18630, #18631, #18632, #18634: various patches from
85 Craig Leres fixing error message argument problems.
87 2007-03-12 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
89 * bug #15212: configure.in, acconfig.h: remove configure test for
90 broken AT&T vi. This test was broken (it was always returning
91 failure even for non-broken vi implementations) and
92 unfixable. Nobody should be using AT&T vi any more so I have
93 simply moved it back to being a setting you can put manually into
94 acconfig.h if you must.
96 2006-10-24 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
98 * uip/sendsbr.c: with attachformat values of 1 or 2, add
99 name= portion to Content-Type header. This makes them
100 consistent with attachformat value 0. And it allows mhstore
101 to use that (file)name when extracting attachments.
103 2006-08-26 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
105 * configure.in: If we're not using dotlocking, there is no need to set
108 2006-03-30 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
110 * uip/sendsbr.c: with attachformat values of 1 or 2, only
111 generate Content-Disposition headers for MIME attachments, not
112 for the message contents themselves. Microsoft Outlook Build
113 10.0.6626, at least, doesn't show the message contents if they
114 have Content-Disposition.
116 2006-03-09 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
118 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c (decode_rfc2047): Don't close the iconv descriptor
121 2006-03-08 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
123 * (mh_strcasecmp): Rename the private strcasecmp function to
124 mh_strcasecmp. This keeps the newer gnu linker happy.
126 2006-03-05 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
128 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c: don't try to malloc 0 bytes if an RFC2047
129 encoded block is empty
131 2006-03-04 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
133 * etc/Makefile.in: use INSTALL_SCRIPT to install scripts;
134 this allows INSTALL_PROGRAM to be set to 'install -s' so
135 binaries are stripped on installation. Apparently the BSDs
138 2006-02-25 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
140 * uip/sendsbr.c: replaced st_mtim with st_mtime, that's what
141 it should have been. Added #include of h/tws.h to pick up
144 2006-02-20 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
146 * h/mh.h, h/prototypes.h, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, uip/send.c,
147 uip/sendsbr.c, uip/viamail.c, uip/whatnowsbr.c, man/send.man:
148 added -attachformat switch to send, to support alternate MIME
149 header contents when using -attach. See send man page for
152 * man/mhbuild.man: wrapped one appearance of "Content-Disposition"
153 with quotes, to be consistent with others.
155 2006-02-20 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
157 * h/utils.h, sbr/utils.c, uip/flist.c, uip/folder.c: Move duplicate
158 function num_digits into utils.c
160 2006-02-19 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
162 * sbr/m_draft.c, sbr/utils.c, uip/folder.c, uip/inc.c,
163 uip/mhstoresbr.c, uip/popi.c, uip/refile.c: Add create_folder()
164 function, replacing duplicate code during folder creation.
166 2006-02-18 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
168 * h/mime.h, h/mhparse.h, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, uip/mhfree.c,
169 man/mhbuild.man, docs/TODO: added support for an optional
170 Content-Disposition header in mhbuild (only). Its contents
171 are supplied between {}, positioned after the optional [], in
172 a mhbuild directive. If the contents do not contain a
173 "filename=" parameter, and the directive has a filename, or
174 something else that ends with "name=", then that will be used
175 to add a "filename=" parameter to the header.
177 2006-02-12 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
179 * docs/TODO: added RFC2183 to reference of RFC1806 for
180 Content-Disposition header.
182 2006-01-31 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
184 * uip/mhbuild.c, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, man/mhbuild.man: added
185 -nocontentid switch, to disable generation of Content-ID:
186 header in MIME messages. (Also added -contentid for
187 symmetry.) The default configuration of Microsoft Outlook,
188 Build 10.0.3416 in particular, doesn't see attachments in
189 incoming messages if there are Content-ID headers, see
190 http://home.cwru.edu/~wrv/eudoraoutlookfix.html. This allows
191 users to easily accomodate that by adding
192 mhbuild: -nocontentid to their .mh_profile.
194 2006-01-29 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
196 * bug 4360: uip/replsbr.c: remove trailing newlines from components
197 to fix bug with spaces at the end of Subject/References in replies
199 2006-01-18 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
201 * configure.in: use AS_HELP_STRING for formatting help messages
203 * configure.in, sbr/fmt_scan.c: add autoconf magic to support
204 old systems that don't support multibyte character sets
206 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: fix bug with insertion of newline being wrong if
207 the num function was used at the end of the format buffer
209 2006-01-17 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
211 * uip/post.c, uip/spost.c: in make_bcc_file (), use same
212 logic as in finish_headers () to detect whether there is an
213 existing From: line in the draft. If draft_from masquerade
214 flag is enabled, this allows the From: to be obeyed in the
215 Bcc, instead of the old behavior of always replacing it with
218 2006-01-17 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
220 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: more robust multi-byte/column support for field
221 widths, restoring right justification feature
223 2006-01-16 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
225 * h/aliasbr.h, h/rcvmail.h, man/Makefile.in, man/slocal.man,
226 sbr/lock_file.c, uip/aliasbr.c, uip/dropsbr.c, uip/post.c,
227 uip/slocal.c, man/mh-mts.man: remove remnants of code for MMDF
229 * uip/scansbr.c: multiply buffer size by MB_CUR_MAX so multi-byte
232 2006-01-14 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
234 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: Turn the PUTSF macro into a function capable of
235 handling multi column characters.
237 2006-01-07 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
239 * Remove sbr/strerror.c -- strerror(3) is defined in C89.
241 2006-01-06 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
243 * patch #3968: Move the add() function from its own file (add.c) and
244 into utils.c. There was also a duplicate add() function in mf.c which
247 2006-01-02 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
249 * Remove sbr/pwd.c file, moving the pwd() function into sbr/utils.c.
251 2006-01-01 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
253 * patch #3967: Create a mh_xrealloc function to prevent mistakes when
256 2006-01-01 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
258 * patch #3966: Create a mh_xmalloc function to prevent mistakes when
261 2005-12-24 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
263 * Bug #15285: Don't use $< in target rules in makefiles, as POSIX
264 says it's only defined in inference rules. (BSD make was expanding
265 $< to the empty string in the rule for building sbr/dtimep.c, which
266 causes lex to apparently hang because it's reading from stdin.)
268 2005-12-24 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
270 * Completely redo db library checking -- we now check for working
271 (include file, library) pairs rather than checking for headers and
272 libraries separately. We also now provide --with-ndbm=lib and
273 --with-ndbmheader=header options to configure to handle situations
274 where configure's autodetection fails.
276 2005-12-21 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
278 * Fix stupid accidental dependence on a bash quirk in previous
279 configure script change.
281 2005-12-15 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
283 * Improve checking for Berkeley db libraries: configure should now
284 find a suitable library on systems with new gdbm where
285 compatibility functions are in the gdbm_compat library, and on
288 2005-12-13 Michael Forrest <mef@computer.org>
290 * Fedora Bug #163760: sbr/context_read.c (context_read): Ensure that
291 the context is only read once.
293 2005-12-12 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
295 * uip/sendsbr.c (annoaux): Fix the call to annotate() fixing a bug
296 which prevented repl from properly annotating messages.
298 2005-12-07 Jon Steinhart <nmh@fourwinds.com>
300 * Fixed a bug where anno -append put the headers in the wrong place
301 if applied to a message that didn't contain any headers.
303 * Added a special value of "all" to the -number option that causes
304 anno -delete to delete all matching components instead of just
307 * Added new -preserve and -nopreserve options. Using -preserve
308 retains the original last accessed and last modified times on
311 2005-12-05 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
313 * Fedora Bug #174983: configure.in: Fix the AC_PATH_PROG default when
314 vi isn't found during build.
316 2005-11-19 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
318 * bug #14977: sbr/context_read.c: special case an MHCONTEXT of
319 "/dev/null" and don't try to lock it.
321 * bug #9228, debian bug #146449: man/mh-profile.man: make it clearer
322 that lower case environment variables (and in particular mheditor)
323 are internal to nmh and not intended to be set by the user.
325 2005-11-09 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
327 * sbr/mf.c: fix buffer overrun with absurdly long addresses
328 (only causes crashes if scan is run with '-width 16536' or similar)
330 * bug #7917: sbr/context_foil.c, sbr/context_read.c,
331 sbr/context_save.c: mark 'no context' with NULL rather than
332 "/dev/null" so we don't inadvertently try to lock /dev/null (which
333 takes up to a minute in some locking configurations and makes post
336 * patch #3913: uip/post.c: pass some globals into sm_init() so that
337 it uses SASL if necessary. (This bug was preventing Bcc'd emails
338 from being sent via SASL authenticated SMTP.)
340 * bug #9813: uip/rmf.c: don't crash if there's no Current-Folder
341 entry in the context file.
343 2005-11-13 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
345 * bug #7833: uip/Makefile.in: remove link to install-mh that caused
346 problems on some systems
348 * bug #739: Makefile.in: install target now depends on all to avoid
349 problem on case-insensitive file systems with the INSTALL file
351 2005-11-10 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
353 * Fedora Bug #172838: configure.in: Fix the AC_PATH_PROG default when
354 sendmail isn't found during build.
356 2005-11-09 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
358 * h/aliasbr.h: fix a non-ANSI prototype.
360 2005-11-08 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
362 * Simon Burge: acconfig.h, configure.in, uip/rcvtty.c, uip/slocal.c:
363 fix to handle getutent() on NetBSD
365 * INSTALL, README, docs/README.about, man/nmh.man: update most
366 references to the web page and mailing list locations
368 * bug #10230: etc/Makefile.in, man/Makefile.in, uip/Makefile.in:
369 Michael De La Rue: prepend DESTDIR to install locations
371 * configure.in, */Makefile.in, mts/smtp/smtp.c: replace obsolete
374 2005-11-06 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
376 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, sbr/fmt_scan.c, h/prototypes.h: fix various
377 possible overruns of the buffers in fmt_scan() which would cause
378 crashes if scan was run with '-width 16536' or similar.
380 * uip/popsbr.c: fix compile error which only showed up if nmh
381 was configured with --enable-apop.
383 * Debian Bug# 245932, RedHat Bug# 172388: uip/mhparse.c: don't
384 crash when handling a multipart MIME message with an invalid
385 Content-Type header (file handle was being fclose()d twice).
387 * sbr/Makefile.in: adjust lex command to work on both old and
388 new versions of flex.
390 * configure.in: add an AC_PREREQ() so autoconf 2.13 gives a helpful
391 error message and the Debian autoconf-version-guessing wrapper
392 doesn't guess wrongly.
394 2005-11-02 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
396 * Debian Bug# 320069: Nick Rusnov: uip/popsbr.c: fail when
397 kpop connection attempted without KPOP support compiled in
399 * Debian Bug# 320090: Nick Rusnov: sbr/Makefile.in: fix for newer
400 version of flex and remove autogenerated file from cvs
402 * patch #1155: uip/flist.c: speed up flist by skipping stat on
403 files with numbers as names
405 * docs/Makefile.in: include new files in distribution
407 2005-10-11 Bill Wohler <wohler@newt.com>
409 * docs/FAQ: fold questions into MH FAQ and distribute that instead
411 2005-10-05 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
413 * Harald Geyer: h/mh.h, uip/replsbr.c: back out previous change
414 (fork/vfork) and replace with code that handles the issue directly
416 2005-05-18 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
418 * Debian Bug# 143485: Nick Rusnov: h/mh.h: use fork instead of
421 * Debian Bug# 261592: Harald Geyer: uip/mhlsbr.c, uip/replsbr.c:
422 test/report error writing to stdout
424 * mts/smtp/smtp.c, uip/popsbr.c: correct SASL include file locations
426 * docs/COMPLETION-BASH: bash completion definitions from Debian
428 * patch #2863: savannah@brisammon.fastmail.fm: sbr/folder_read.c:
429 fix a bug affecting AFS where nmh was setting the READONLY flag
430 for a folder even when you do have write access to the folder
432 * Carl Mummert: h/fmt_compile.h, man/mh-format.man,
433 sbr/fmt_compile.c, sbr/fmt_scan.c: add unquote() function for
434 removing quotes from RFC-2822 encoded headers
436 2005-02-23 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
438 * use iconv to convert RFC-2047 encoded headers to the
439 character set used by the current locale
441 * sbr/folder_read.c fix Debian bug #202667: crash when a
442 message's filename overflows an int when converted
444 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
445 versions (from automake 1.9.5)
447 2005-02-21 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
449 * sbr/getpass.c fix bug where inc crashed on failing to reopen
452 2005-01-27 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
454 * Added -proxy option to inc and msgchk. Based on old patch
455 from Michael Richardson.
457 * On systems where it is available, use nl_langinfo to get the
458 character set if MM_CHARSET is unset
460 2005-01-21 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
462 * sbr/check_charset.c US-ASCII is a subset of UTF-8 so can be
463 handled directly when UTF-8 is being used
465 2004-12-17 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
467 * uip/mhmisc.c Fix -part option to mhshow/mhlist/mhstore to
468 find sub-parts of the specified part
470 2004-11-19 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
472 * h/prototypes.h, sbr/folder_addmsg.c, uip/mhstoresbr.c,
473 uip/rcvstore.c, uip/refile.c: Added mail directory argument to
474 folder_addmsg in order to make it possible to provide a path to
475 the ext_hook call that is mailpath-based. A problem existed when
476 a folder was a symbolic link and the pwd call would return the
477 path relative to the filesystem, not to mailpath. A new argument
478 was needed because there was otherwise no reasonable way to get
481 2004-11-16 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
483 * sbr/folder_pack.c: Fixed problem where the refile hook was being
484 called after a message was renamed so that it wasn't around for
485 the hook. The hook is now called before the message file is
488 * sbr/folder_addmsg.c: Fixed wrong directory for hook when
489 refiling with -src option.
491 2004-10-15 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
493 * uip/sortm.c: Fixed calling of external hooks.
495 2004-10-12 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
497 * uip/inc.c: Fixed another weird bug caused by the static
498 mailpath being overwritten.
500 * uip/sendsbr.c: Fixed bug that caused anno to mangle headers.
502 * sbr/lock_file.c: Fixed strange bug that prevented a lock from
503 ever being obtained if getting it failed the first time. The
504 problem was that the string of XXXXXX that is required by
505 mkstemp() was overwritten the first time through, and so all
506 subsequent times failed because mkstemp() failed. The fix
507 reinitializes the tmp file string.
509 * uip/inc.c: Fixed bug in which the static maildir was overwritted
510 if a format string was read from the profile.
512 * sbr/folder_delmsgs.c: Fixed bug that was producing an incorrect
513 path for the external hook.
515 2003-10-06 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
517 * uip/slocal.c, configure.in: db configuration fix for Debian; yet
518 another location for ndbm.
520 2003-09-30 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
522 * Fix 'pick' so handling of options "-list" and "-seq" are
524 * Fix 'inc' realloc error when bringing in more than 100 msgs
526 * Patches submitted by Nick Rusnov from Debian archive applied:
529 136976 - Handle binary content messages
530 143427 - mh-format.man typo
531 144098 - 'spost; should have same behavior as 'post'
532 w.r.t. mts.conf masquerade line
533 149745 - slocal ignores 'N' result of previous command
534 152728 - increase SMTP timeouts to conform to RFC 1123
535 The timeouts suggested by the RFC seem long
536 to me - but the RFC is still listed as active.
537 181867 - typo for nmh.man
539 2003-08-10 Jeffrey C Honig <jch@honig.net>
541 * Fix problem where parsing of address/date fields in fmt_compile
542 is optimized to the first instance. The first instance may be in
543 contitional code which will result in cached data to
544 be used. Instead, convert c_flags to a flags field from a boolean
545 and parse on the first use.
546 * Remove some unused flag bits.
548 Fri Jul 01 22:02:00 2003 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
550 * Applied fixes for configuration problems with Solaris and
551 systems with gdbm instead of db1 (includes bug #2024)
553 #578 - repl leaks umask
554 #1393 - sortm core dumps
555 #1650 - msh leaks file descriptors
556 #1730 - Double free() in mhfree.c:free_encoding()
557 #3356 - In-Reply-To header in default replcomps should be
559 * Revised man page for mh-format (bug #2031)
560 * New replcomps, etc, with Fcc: +outbox in default versions
562 Sat Mar 17 03:18:15 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
564 * Ken Hornstein's configure.in Cyrus SASL checks were doing
565 `x"$with_cyrus_sasl" != "no"' instead of `... != x"no"'.
567 Tue Mar 06 21:04:27 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
569 * Found some historical information about MH in RFC 808.
570 Supplemented it with info from Jerry Peek's MH book and added it
571 to docs/README.about.
573 Tue Feb 6 20:35:40 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
575 * sbr/dtime.c Use the same Y2K correction code as dtimep.lex
577 * sbr/dtimep.lex Restrict the parser to accept either
578 a numerical timezone offset, or a symbolic one (e.g. EST),
579 but not both (Since "2000 -400 EDT" might cause a double
580 subtraction of 60 minutes if both are parsed. One should be
583 Mon Feb 05 20:22:54 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
585 * -L isn't sufficient for specifying the path of the Cyrus SASL
586 shared library. That'll allow us to link successfully, but on
587 many/most OSes that won't allow us to find libsasl at runtime. On
588 Solaris, we need to specify the library path with -R as well (or
589 else the user will have to use the $LD_LIBRARY_PATH kludge, which
590 is considered harmful). This fix should be extended to other OSes
593 * Print whether we have SASL support in the "nmh configuration"
594 summary configure prints out.
596 * Say in README.developers to use `\date' in case anyone is like
597 me and has `date' aliased in their shell to use a nonstandard (but
598 subjectively more readable) format.
600 Thu Jan 25 21:15:52 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
602 * man/mh-chart.man has updated synposes of
605 Tue Jan 23 20:26:15 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
607 * etc/digestcomps tried to force dates into a
608 19xx when it's not necessary.
610 Fri Jan 19 21:22:08 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
612 * First round of manpage updates finished. They
613 are standardized on -man macros, with minimal
616 * man/tmac.h.in is no longer needed, since the
617 manpages do not depend on them anymore. Note:
618 strict "man" programs that didn't allow ".so"
619 sourcing outside the man tree will now format
620 the man pages correctly.
622 * man/vmh.1 is no longer built, since uip/vmh isn't
624 Tue Jan 9 6:01:22 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
626 * Finished manpages ali-prev
628 * Removed deprecated files from the repository.
629 Specifically, those rooted in zotnet/ and mts/sendmail
630 mts/mmdf. "cvs update -dP" will give a pruned directory
633 * Updated docs/Makefile.in to include README.manpages, and
634 uip/Makefile.in to include popi.c (which isn't being built,
635 though). This allows "make nmhdist" to create an archive that
636 is file-for-file identical to the current cvs repository.
638 Sun Dec 31 20:48:50 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
640 * Create docs/README.manpages, which details
641 the formatting rules I've been using.
645 Sat Dec 30 9:50:13 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
647 * Created a new file "DATE" to hold the date
648 of the most recent nmh release. This date will be
649 used in the manpages.
651 * Updated docs/README.developers to add the step
652 of updating DATE. Also, updated configure to
653 read in the contents of the file as the variable
656 * Started work on updating man pages, with only
657 ali finished so far. Changes: 1) no dependence
658 on an external macro file, 2) uses only
659 -man macros (although I may be mistaken in this),
660 3) syntax in the SYNOPSIS is a little more
661 in line with standard UNIX documentation, such as
662 bold flags and italicized parameters.
664 Sun Dec 24 10:06:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
666 * Updated INSTALL with information about the
667 --with-locking option.
669 * Fixed the Hesiod tests in configure.in. In
670 systems where res_send was in -lresolv, this
671 information was not being communicated to the
672 HESIOD_LIBS var. Now, if res_send is not found
673 in the default libraries, it's assumed to be
674 in -lresolv, and thus -lresolv is appended to
675 HESIOD_LIBS, which will need that to avoid
676 undefined symbols problems.
678 * Fixed the Kerberos tests in configure.in. New
679 versions of Kerberos 5 have renamed -lcrypto
680 to -lk5crypto (circa krb5 1.1 or thereabouts). The
681 new test tries to determine if -lk5crypto exists. If so,
682 this is a new krb5 system. If not, test for -lcrypto
683 and the rest of old krb5. If that fails, look
684 for a genuine krb4 installation.
686 Fri Dec 22 22:08:51 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
688 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in msgchk.man.
689 -snoop was documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
691 Fri Dec 22 23:42:16 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
693 * Made a new ./configure option called
694 "--with-locking" that allows the file
695 locking mechanism to be chosen there instead of
696 requiring a manual edit of config.h.
698 * If the option is not explicitly set, or an
699 invalid option is specified, "dot" locking is
700 chosen. Valid options are "dot", "fcntl",
701 "flock", and "lockf". We need a way to tell
702 the user that these are the valid options, and
703 change the flag "--with-locking" if it's not
706 Fri Dec 22 19:21:29 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
708 * Remove the lex-specific memory hints at the
709 beginning of sbr/dtimep.lex. We've already
710 committed to supporting flex only, since
711 lex does not easily allow us to parse a single
712 string, as well as other problems documented
713 below and on nmh-workers.
715 * Added a switch statement to configure.in to
716 test for Mac OS X. If this is the case, LDFLAGS
717 should not contain "-s" since the linker rejects
720 * Updated MACHINES to include Mac OS X Public Beta,
721 as well as Linux 2.4 running glibc 2.2.
723 Wed Dec 20 16:00:46 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
725 * Marked deprecated directories in docs/README.developers
726 as deprecated, with pointers to the new code location.
727 Eventually these deprecated directories should go away.
729 Tue Dec 19 19:16:37 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
731 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in inc.man. -snoop was
732 documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
734 Thu Dec 14 14:32:09 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
736 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
737 versions on ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/config, dated
738 12-07-00. This should prevent configure from failing
739 on newer operating systems because config.{guess,sub}
740 couldn't correctly identify them.
742 Thu Dec 14 1:30:44 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
744 * Fixed the circular dependency created when I moved
745 zotnet/mts to mts/generic and merged them into libmts.
746 mts/generic/client.c and mts/generic/mts.c are now in sbr/
747 (and thus in libmh), which makes libmh self-contained and
748 not depending on an external archive.
750 * All include statements now look for mts.h in h/. The
751 Makefiles and configure script have been modified so that
752 mts/generic is no longer built.
754 Mon Dec 11 22:08:07 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
756 * When Shantonu made the new libmts.a, he swapped $(MTSLIB) and
757 libmh.a in sbr/Makefile.in so that libmh.a comes first, but this
758 causes the build to fail on Solaris, because libmts.a has to get
759 ruserpass() out of libmh.a. Swapping them back to the way Ken
760 Hornstein's patch (which I applied on Jul 20) put them, with
761 libmh.a correctly coming second. If there are times when libmts.a
762 needs to come second, then it would appear there's a circular
763 dependency and someone (Shantonu?) did an mts merge incorrectly.
765 Fri Sep 8 01:36:23 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
767 * Took out bad time textual time zones like BST and JST.
768 I found them online somewhere, but am not sure if they're
771 Fri Sep 8 00:36:48 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
773 * Moved zotnet/mts to mts/generic. This code reorganization
774 makes the entire zotnet tree deprecated -- bboards is unneeded,
775 mf was was moved to sbr, tws was rewritten and moved to sbr, and
778 * Created a new static library called libmts.a used during
779 compilation which includes the generic mts code and the
780 smtp/sendmail code. This supercedes the functionality of the
781 old libsmtp.a and the remains of libzot.a.
783 * Updated header includes to reference the new location of mts.h
784 in mts/generic/mts.h. Also, update the configure and top-level
785 Makefile not to descend into zotnet. Also, they don't descend
786 into mts/mmdf and mts/sendmail (the sendmail code has been
787 merged into the smtp code).
789 * Added #include <h/nmh.h> to h/md5.h, since my compile was
790 complaining about implicitly-declared memcpy and memset, which
791 appear to be in strings.h. In any event, nmh.h should take care
794 * When doing a "make nmhdist", notice that the generated
795 snapshot does not include zotnet of the mts directories as noted
796 above. Since they are no longer compiled, and I don't see any
797 obvious code path to get to them, end-users should probably
798 not need them. If you think otherwise, turn Makefile generation
799 back on in configure.in and turn on recursion into those dirs
800 in the appropriate Makefile.in
802 Wed Sep 6 22:40:03 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
804 * Tracked down the problem in the new dtimep where time
805 zones were being radically misreported. It was because the
806 parser knew about military time zones (such as M or E) but in
807 some cases did not know about the textual representation of
808 some zones (like MET). When it encountered one of these, the
809 date parser misread MET as the military time zone T (well, first
810 zone M, then E, and finally T). I took military zones out, and
811 things seem much better. Also, the default behavior of parsing
812 time zones appears to default to GMT in the absence of better
813 info, which is less bogus than assuming the mail came from the
814 current time zone, which was the behavior in 1.04.
816 Thu Aug 10 13:22:13 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
818 * Decided that limiting the message number columns to 3 on my
819 scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD (to try to regain space taken by
820 extra date info) was ill-conceived. It's not that tough to get
821 past 999 messages, though I imagine it's rather rare to exceed
822 9999. Changed these to 4. Also put the "replied / encrypted"
823 column back in YYYYMMDD -- I've never seen it show anything but a
824 space, but that space is useful if you use scan, grep, and awk
825 (with the default field separator) to grab message numbers (I know
826 -- pick should really be used for these purposes...).
828 Mon Aug 7 20:11:09 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
830 * Modify umask set by mhshow to enable user execute bit, so that
831 viewers that create temporary directories (e.g., lynx) will be
834 Thu Aug 03 17:14:08 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
836 * TODO: Allow multiple simultaneous differing contexts, probably
837 each tied to a parent (terminal) process.
839 Tue Aug 1 10:48:05 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
841 * Makefile install rules should not look for generated files in
842 the source tree -- this will happen to work when configuring and
843 building inside the source tree but will fail when using an
844 external build tree. Fixed etc/Makefile.in.
846 Mon Jul 24 16:20:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
848 * When Shantonu wrote the new, more portable dtimep.lex, he left
849 out the #ifdef DSTXXX stuff for some reason. Not a good idea, as
850 that code is required for proper printing of numeric-offset
851 timezones that have daylight saving time. Without that code,
852 -0700 during DST gets printed as MST instead of PDT.
854 * Renamed DSTXXX as ADJUST_NUMERIC_ONLY_TZ_OFFSETS_WRT_DST and
855 added an explanatory comment by its #definition.
857 * Updated README.developers with the fact that zotnet/tws is going away.
859 Thu Jul 20 20:30:52 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
861 * Moved Kimmo's new "--with-hash-backup" to be output with the
862 rest of the --with options in the configure --help output. Also,
863 people did not preserve my alphabetization of the --with options
864 when they added new ones. Re-alphabetized.
866 * One more pass at README.developers now that it's clear that my
867 previously-suggested one-line autoconf-file commit can cause
868 unnecessary local makes and an out-of-sync stamp-h.in file, but
869 would not cause problems for other people using the CVS files.
871 * Ken Hornstein's SASL patch was not integrated properly with
872 Ruud's new merged mts/sendmail code. Kimmo has since fixed nmh so
873 it compiles, but according to Ken, the SASL stuff still does not
874 work. Integrating a patch from him for this.
876 * Last pass at README.developers -- Kimmo's 5-step commit was
877 overkill. You only need 3 steps, since configure.in is the only
878 autoconf file with the RCS $Id keyword.
880 * Applied Kurt J. Lidl <lidl@eng.us.uu.net>'s $MAILHOST patch:
882 I have a small patch that would be nice to be included --
883 basically, it allows the usage of the "MAILHOST" environment
884 variable, without having to have HESIOD turned on. I need
885 this functionality for my environment, where we have identical
886 /usr/local on all my machines (so I cannot just hardcode into
887 the mts.conf file), and I have multiple POP mail servers for
890 Modified inc.man to reflect that along with "pophost:" and -host,
891 $MAILHOST can now activate POP mail inclusion as well.
893 * Fixed warnings from diff on first-time install of nmh. Also
894 added 'echo's clarifying the etc file installation activities.
896 Tue Jul 18 19:36:59 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
898 * Added the answer to Dan's question in README.developers.
900 Mon Jul 17 19:10:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
902 * Clarified and made some corrections to Kimmo's README.developers
903 changes (BTW, if anyone can explain why the RCS Ids are able to cause
904 problems with the dependencies, please fill in the explanation --
905 I never encountered a problem with the old single-commit method).
907 Sat Jul 15 23:13:49 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
909 * Add configure option --with-hash-backup so the backup prefix can
910 be easily changed from "," to "#".
912 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that it works with any make.
914 * Use mkstemp in sbr/lock_file.c.
916 * Commits of autoconf-related files apparently can't all be done
917 in one shot due to RCS Ids changing when committing -- updated
920 Tue Jul 11 14:18:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
922 * Clarified post.man and send.man for those not completely up on
923 SASL terminology. "SASL encryption layers are not supported for
924 SMTP" means that encryption is supported for the authentication
925 but not for the subsequent data stream.
927 Sat Jul 8 01:36:19 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
929 * Applied Ken Hornstein <kenh@cmf.nrl.navy.mil>'s patches
930 implementing SASL support for POP3 and SMTP. If nmh is compiled
931 with SASL support, using the -sasl switch on the inc, msgchk,
932 post, and send commands will enable authentication encryption for
933 SMTP, and both authentication and data stream encryption for POP3.
935 Sat Jun 10 18:37:59 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
937 * Merged mts/sendmail functionality into mts/smtp; switching between
938 smtp and sendmail delivery method is now controlled by mts.conf.
940 * If tsort cannot deal with loops, in addition to defining tsort as
941 cat, also define lorder as echo.
943 * Removed uip/popi.c from list of sources.
945 Thu Jun 08 19:36:57 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
947 * New dtimep.lex didn't parse day names properly. Fixed. Also
948 clarified ambiguous comments preceding day_map[] array (from old
949 dtimep.lex) that probably led to the erroneous cp++ being added.
951 Wed Jun 7 20:52:33 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
953 * Added one more mkstemp invocation to uip/spost.c (which was in a
956 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to clean up permissions handling
957 and error handling in uip/inc.c.
959 Mon Jun 5 22:10:07 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
961 * Use cat instead of tsort if tsort cannot deal with loops in its
962 input (which is the case for tsort from GNU textutils).
964 Mon Jun 5 21:14:36 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
966 * If lockfile is present, and its dotlockfile program is setgid,
967 inc does not need to be setgid.
969 Sun Jun 4 21:35:40 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
971 * Added autoconf test for Miquel van Smoorenburg's liblockfile
972 library, as found on Debian systems.
974 * Added liblockfile support to sbr/lock_file.c.
976 Wed May 31 7:19:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
978 * Fixed up dtimep.lex a bit. Added back memory options for AIX to
979 increase available memory. Took out %option noyywrap, which
980 wasn't understood by AT&T lex, as well as the -i
981 case-insensitivity flag.
983 Wed May 31 07:40:45 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
985 * Added a lint target to the Makefiles and a check in autoconf
986 to determine whether lint or lclint exists on the system.
988 Fri May 30 19:21:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
990 * etc/Makefile.in was incorrectly installing mts.conf.in and
991 sendfiles.in -- fixed. Generated sendfiles script was not a
992 dependency of the `all' target, and was incorrectly included in
993 the distribution. Changed the suffix for the backed-up previous
994 versions of the etc files from the ambiguous .old to .prev. Added
995 call to diff -- only keep the .prev files around if different from
996 the newly-installed versions (intentionally didn't redirect output
997 to /dev/null so you'll notice when your changed versions are
998 getting moved aside).
1000 * INSTALL never documented the etc/*.old thing. Documented the
1001 new etc/*.prev thing (including a note to watch for diff output).
1003 * Applied Alec Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu>'s dropsbr.c patch:
1005 In the map_write routine, a call is made to map_open and this
1006 call is supposed to set the "clear" variable to 0 or 1,
1007 depending on whether the map file is empty or not. In
1008 mh6.8.3, this worked because map_open would set "clear" by
1009 calling the mbx_Xopen routine. In nmh, the code for mbx_Xopen
1010 was merged into mbx_open, but the interface for mbx_open
1011 doesn't support the clear variable, so that functionality was
1012 lost. The map_open interface still contains "int *clear" in
1013 the prototype, but never sets it.
1015 My patch eliminates "clear" from the map_open interface (I
1016 checked to make sure that map_write is the only client of
1017 map_open). Furthermore, my patch also sets the "clear"
1018 variable properly at the beginning of map_write by calling
1019 fstat(). This eliminates the bug in that the value of "clear"
1020 being used later in the routine was just stack garbage.
1022 Having a bad value of clear causes this next bug to be
1023 triggered: The fp file pointer was being opened with fdopen,
1024 but in two of the three switch cases it wasn't being closed.
1025 In certain cases, this was causing packf to run out of file
1026 descriptors if you attempted to pack a large folder.
1028 Mon May 29 7:48:15 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1030 * Moved the date parsing routines from zotnet/tws to sbr/ (and
1031 tws.h to h/). Updated all source files to reflect to new location
1034 * Rewrote dparsetime (in dtimep.lex -> dtimep.c) to replace the
1035 old zotnet/tws/dtimep.c, dtimep.lex, lexstring.c, lexedit.c, and
1036 dtimep.c-lexed. It should now work with flex (although untested
1037 with lex), and requires no sed-ing. For now, I have the lexed
1038 version in the distribution, so that end-users don't need to worry
1039 about running it through flex/lex. I have not added back support
1040 for guessing the time zone when it's not specified.
1042 Sun May 28 17:44:15 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1044 * Added autoconf check for getutent().
1046 * Changed uip/rcvtty.c and uip/slocal.c to use getutent() and
1047 friends. Since I can only check on Linux, please check if
1048 this works on other systems.
1050 Sun May 28 14:58:49 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1052 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to uip/scansbr.c for more
1053 checks for write failures.
1055 * Unlink temporary file properly in uip/rcvtty.c.
1057 * Moved viamail from bindir to libdir.
1059 * Changed sendfiles into sendfiles.in, so that path to viamail
1062 * Added gzip support to sendfiles.
1064 * Added References header to replcomps and replgroupcomps.
1066 Sun May 28 14:39:31 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1068 * Fixed m_getfld bug which caused segmentation faults when
1069 incorporating messages which ended in multiple linefeeds crossing
1072 Fri May 26 13:21:59 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1074 * msh has been unable to show MIME messages ever since 1.0. Alec
1075 Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu> tracked down the problem to the
1076 -show flag being passed to mhshow. mhshow is equivalent to the
1077 old mhn -show, so we don't need the -show anymore. Removed it.
1079 Fri May 12 02:51:21 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1081 * zotnet/bboards is not longer built by default. Goal is to move
1082 the assorted functions in zotnet into sbr or some more logical
1085 * Moved zotnet/mf to sbr, and changed mf.h references accordingly,
1086 as well as Makefiles.
1088 Thu May 11 02:21:34 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1090 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that both SRCS and OBJS aren't
1091 seperately and redundantly defined, but so that OBJS is a
1092 pattern-substituted version of SRCS with suffix .c -> .o. This
1093 should make maintainability easier.
1095 * Added section to MACHINES indicating what platforms nmh is known
1096 to compile and work on, just to give users peace of mind, or
1097 something. This is by no means complete or exhaustive, so add
1098 whatever you know works.
1100 Tue May 09 20:38:04 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1102 * Alphabetized Shantonu's $pop_kinds output on configure's "pop is
1103 enabled" line. If POP3 is the only kind of POP enabled, say so,
1104 rather than just saying "yes" (which is ambiguous).
1106 * Fixed four warnings in Shantonu's new getpass.c. Needed to
1107 #include <stdlib.h> for calloc(), <unistd.h> for ttyname(), and
1108 "h/mh.h" for adios(). Also changed ch from char to int to get rid
1109 of "comparison is always 1 due to limited range of data type" on EOF.
1111 * Added steps to README.developers saying to change the version
1112 number to X.Y.Z+dev. Did a little rearranging and changed the FTP
1113 dir from /home/ftp to /var/ftp to reflect Doug's new machine.
1115 * Changed configure.in to use gcc -Wall even without
1116 --enable-debug, to prevent developers compiling optimized from
1117 introducing warnings, and to give end-users a warm, fuzzy feeling
1118 as they (hopefully) see no warnings come out (except perhaps on
1119 the lex output file) even with -Wall.
1121 * Renamed getpass() to nmh_getpass() since the prototype for
1122 getpass() varies from OS to OS, and we want to _always_ use our
1123 version of the function. Fixed all the callers to use
1124 nmh_getpass() and added it to prototypes.h. Semi-arbitrarily
1125 upped MAX_PASSWORD_LEN from 128 to 256. buf was being calloc()'d
1126 and the memory leaked -- should have just been declared as static
1127 char array. Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the
1128 copyright message, as this version has been changed significantly
1129 from the BSD version.
1131 * Added "nmh-local functions to use in preference to OS versions"
1132 section to README.developers (currently just says to use
1133 nmh_getpass() instead of system getpass()).
1135 * Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the copyright message
1136 in ruserpass.c also.
1138 * Added mts.conf.5 page per Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s
1141 This happens on solaris:
1144 windex entry incorrect: mts.conf(5) not found.
1145 No manual entry for mts.conf.
1149 % echo ".so man5/mh-tailor.5" > mts.conf.5
1151 done in the man5 directory. We need to add 'mts.conf.5' as a
1152 reference sourcing mh-tailor.5.
1154 Mon May 08 23:51:55 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1156 * Doug informed me that the way I had restored the "lost" version
1157 histories was wrong, because `cvs checkout's of old versions of
1158 nmh wouldn't work properly. It occurs to me that this could be
1159 fixed by simply deleting those tags in the new-location *,v files,
1160 but oh well. I'm putting everything back to the way Doug
1161 originally had it. To get the old version history for a file that
1162 used to be in the top directory, you'll need to "blindly" do a
1163 `cvs log' there (even though you won't have a local copy of the
1164 file in that directory). `cvs diff' will no longer be able to
1165 diff pre-move versions vs. post-move versions -- you'll have to do
1166 a lot of manual gyrations with `cvs checkout' and then use `diff'.
1168 * I had alphabetized the --configure options in the --help output
1169 awhile back, but Shantonu added --enable-apop just under
1170 --enable-pop. Put it in alphabetical order and clarified what
1171 --enable-apop does vs. --enable-pop and --with-krb4. Also changed
1172 --with-mts help line from "mail transport agent" to "mail
1173 transport agent/service" so the 's' in "mts" doesn't seem to come
1176 * Added two steps to "releasing nmh" in README.developers. After
1177 making the tarball, it's a good idea to diff the tree vs. the CVS
1178 tree to make sure no files got left out, and then to chown the
1179 files so that they're owned by root, preventing a Trojaning attack
1180 by a malicious remote user with a UID matching yours.
1182 * Changed DIFFERENCES to say that RPOP is not currently supported
1183 rather than implying it by saying that APOP, KPOP, and POP[3] are.
1185 Sun May 07 18:16:43 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1187 * Imported NetBSD version of getpass() and made extensive
1188 revisions for compatibility with programs that pipe the password
1189 to stdin, such as exmh.
1191 * Removed tests for system ruserpass() which sometimes gave
1192 phantom positive results. Also, bext to use internal functions if
1193 we ever want to change .netrc format to something else, or access
1196 Sat May 06 08:28:09 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1198 * Restored lost version histories for those moved files by doing a
1199 manual `mv' in the CVSROOT on mhost. CVS badly needs a `cvs mv'
1200 command so that you can move files (without having physical access
1201 to the CVSROOT) without losing versioning. Put MACHINES back at
1202 the top level as it needs to be read before building. Fixed DIST
1203 variable in {.,docs}/Makefile.in to reflect that and to add
1204 missing entry for "INSTALL" file.
1206 Sat May 06 13:13:07 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1208 * Re-cleaned up nmh documentation (by moving things to docs
1209 subdir) and modified Makefile & configure.in to handle the change.
1211 Mon Apr 17 21:28:40 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1213 * Scott Blachowicz pointed out that the configure --help output
1214 for --enable-masquerade was misleading. Clarified.
1216 Mon Apr 17 19:01:00 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1218 * APOP support can be compiled in to inc and msgchk using
1221 * To access an APOP host, specify -apop on the command line
1222 along with any -host or -user option.
1224 Fri Apr 14 23:10:44 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1226 * Upped the version number to 1.0.4+dev until the next nmh release.
1228 * Added a "releasing nmh" section to README.developers, while the
1229 process was fresh in my mind.
1231 Fri Apr 14 18:21:34 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1233 * Added new files README.developers, ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6, and
1234 ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html to DIST target in Makefile.in.
1236 * Released nmh-1.0.4.
1238 Tue Apr 11 21:37:03 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1240 * Applied Brian Campbell <bacam@tardis.ed.ac.uk>'s mhn.defaults.sh
1243 It appears that there shouldn't be quotes around the %s in the
1244 iso-8859-1 charset entry; xterm passes the remaining arguments
1245 to the program, quoting them means that xterm thinks they're
1246 part of the program's name.
1248 This %s isn't the same as the "Insert content subtype" one from
1249 mhshow-show-* -- it doesn't come from MIME headers and is safe not
1252 Sun Apr 09 13:03:59 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1254 * added check in fmt_compile() to handle a single-character
1255 format string. fmt_compile() depends on having an array of
1256 format characters with an empty item at the end. A
1257 single-character format would cause programs using this
1258 function to segfault because the algorithm used to decide on
1259 the length of the array mistakenly created a single-item array
1260 when the format string was one character. This eventually
1261 caused problems when the program attempted to test item+1
1264 Thu Apr 06 21:53:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1266 * Richard Coleman threw out a lot of old MH-specific files in nmh.
1267 Much of the stuff, indeed, is not worth saving, but there are
1268 nuggets that are very worthwhile, and should probably be added
1269 back in. Most important, IMHO, are the MH change logs, as they
1270 can help answer questions like "Why is this code like this?" or
1271 "How long has this been broken?" or "What was this ever used for?"
1273 I've added a new file to the nmh tree called
1274 ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6. It's cobbled together from the
1275 mh-6.8.4/papers/mh*/MHCHANGES files. I've re-ordered the entries
1276 to go from newest at the top to oldest at the bottom to match the
1277 ChangeLog convention. Unfortunately there are no change logs for
1278 versions of MH prior to 3 in the MH tar files available at
1279 <ftp://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/mh>. Also, it appears to me that there
1280 are MH-6.6 changes that aren't documented in the logs.
1282 I've also added ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html. This is
1283 based on mh-6.8.4/papers/changes/mh-changes.ms. The nroff format
1284 and its "catman"-type output are a pain to deal with, but I was
1285 loath to throw away the formatting, so I converted the file to
1286 HTML. The only actual markup in the body are the "<B>" and "<U>"
1287 tags, and "<" and ">" instead of '<' and '>', so it's quite
1288 doable to view the file in plain ASCII mode as well. Note that
1289 some of the changes this file documents as having been made in
1290 MH-6.8.4 may not be present in nmh -- Richard started with 6.8.3
1291 and later put in certain 6.8.4 stuff.
1293 Wed Apr 05 21:09:28 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1295 * Applied Eric Schnoebelen <eric@cirr.com>'s mhshowsbr.c patch
1296 fixing apparent bugs in Dan Winship's new security quoting code:
1298 Since upgrading, I've been getting the following errors
1299 while attempting to process some MIME messages:
1301 (1) Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
1306 (2) line 1/10 (END)Segmentation fault (core dumped)
1308 (2) appears to be due to the testing of an unset pointer in
1309 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux(). (1) appears to be caused by
1310 mis-quoting a filename being handed to the shell in
1311 mhshowsbr.c:show_content_aux().
1313 Resolving the pointer reference issue in
1314 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux() turned up a similar mis-quoting
1315 problem in the routine.
1317 Tue Mar 28 16:17:39 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1319 * Applied Todd.Miller@courtesan.com's patch to dropsbr.c to
1320 prevent core dumping on packf. Here's the note from his message:
1322 Since sizeof(buffer) == sizeof(tmpbuffer) packf will dump
1323 core on a file w/o a From line with a line >= BUFSIZ.
1324 I noticed this because I had a junk file in my mail
1327 Fri Mar 17 11:59:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1329 * wesley.craig@umich.edu did not document his previous KPOP patch,
1330 so I did so, and asked him to check what I wrote. Unfortunately
1331 he didn't notice my misunderstanding of his patch. I wrote that
1332 if you #define POPSERVICE "kpop", inc and msgchk will use KPOP
1333 exclusively, but if you leave it as "pop3", you can use Wesley's
1334 new -kpop switch on a given invocation. Instead, however, -kpop
1335 turned out to be necessary on every invocation, and a KPOP user
1336 complained. Applied Wesley's new patch, which makes things work
1337 like I thought his original patch did. After that, did one more
1338 clarifying pass to the documentation in inc.man and msgchk.man.
1340 Wed Mar 15 18:45:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1342 * When I fixed the long-standing makedir() bugs in January, I had
1343 the code call strtoul(..., 0), which I believed to be safe as all
1344 modes specified as ASCII constants in the nmh code started with a
1345 leading zero (signifying octal), which I did as it would work if
1346 internal constants were ever changed to hex. Unfortunately I was
1347 unaware of the "Folder-Protect:" .mh_profile entry, which
1348 mh-profile.man documents as an octal-only constant, with no
1349 leading zero required. I've changed the strtoul() call to an
1350 atooi() call and removed the misleading leading zeroes on the
1351 ASCII octal constants in the code and man pages. Also changed the
1352 "Folder-Protect:" example in the man page to something more
1353 interesting than a duplication of the default.
1355 * When I added my --enable-masquerade option, you'll note that I
1356 didn't make it --enable-nmh-masquerade. I find the --enable-nmh-*
1357 options too wordy and I'm not sure why Richard went that route.
1358 I've renamed them to just --enable-*, but the old versions will
1359 still work as well (they just aren't advertised).
1361 * Added a line to the "nmh configuration" output saying whether
1364 * Added a new README.developers file. From the file:
1366 This file is intended to provide a few tips for anyone doing
1367 development on nmh. Developers who learn things "the hard
1368 way" about the nmh codebase (as opposed to local info best
1369 encoded in a comment) are encouraged to share their wisdom
1372 Currently the topics are "autoconf files" and "directory structure".
1374 Tue Mar 14 12:41:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1376 * Applied, after some finessing,
1377 Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s --with-smtpservers patch:
1379 Here's a patch that allows you to add
1381 --with-smtpservers=<some.host.name>
1383 to the ./configure command line to set the "servers: " line in
1384 etc/mts.conf. Around here, we use "mailhost" so that all
1385 machines in the current domain just talk to a central machine
1386 and nothing else runs an MTA. Now, I can use
1388 --with-smtpservers=mailhost
1390 instead of having to remember to fix this by hand (and often
1391 forgetting to do so!).
1393 * Inspired by Simon's patch, added an --enable-masquerade option
1394 to configure. It will set the "masquerade:" line of mts.conf.
1395 You may specify a subset of the three types of masquerading, like
1396 --enable-masquerade="draft_from mmailid", or leave off explicit
1397 arguments to enable all three types.
1399 * Alphabetized the --enable and --with options in configure.in and
1400 INSTALL and added documentation of the two new options to the latter.
1402 * Added new dependency for mts.conf: Makefile. If this isn't
1403 done, then when you reconfigure nmh with new values for
1404 --enable-masquerade or --with-smtpservers, you'll fail to get an
1405 updated copy of mts.conf.
1407 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtimep.lex patch:
1409 It seems that some MUA's didn't handle y2k very well - ELM
1410 seems to be one of them, and Ultrix's DXmail (based on MH!).
1411 I've got a few emails this month that look like:
1413 575 Jan 00 Xxxxxx Xxxx 3603 ...
1415 22+ Jan 00 Xxx Xxxxx 1771 ...
1417 The first has "15 Jan 100" as the date and the second has
1418 "19 Jan 00" as the date. The following works around this so
1419 that scan, show, sortm, etc work ok.
1421 I put Simon's patch under the control of a new #define called
1422 FIX_NON_Y2K_COMPLIANT_MUA_DATES. There's some commentary in
1423 acconfig.h about when you might not want to #define it.
1425 * Created new dtimep.c-lexed with Simon's change using dtimep.lex
1426 lexed on Solaris 2.6. Added missing dependency in
1427 zotnet/tws/Makefile.in for dtimep.c: dtimep.c-lexed.
1429 * Added scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD format files.
1431 Mon Mar 13 21:32:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1433 * Applied Sullivan N. Beck <sbeck@cise.ufl.edu>'s mhshow-suffix patch:
1435 With the patch below, you can add lines like:
1437 mhshow-suffix-application/msword: .doc
1438 mhshow-suffix-application/PostScript: .ps
1440 to the mhn.defaults file to append the given suffix to a
1441 scratch file. This allows applications which require a
1442 certain suffix to run properly.
1444 * Removed -force_html from lynx entry in mhn.defaults.sh (I
1445 believe older versions of lynx lack that option) and added
1446 "mhshow-suffix-text/html: .html".
1448 * Modified username_extension masquerading to only use the
1449 extended address on generated [Resent-]From: lines and SMTP
1450 envelope From:. With Neil's original implementation, nmh's global
1451 idea of the username was changed, which would result in inc lying
1452 and saying you had no new mail because it was looking for a
1453 mailbox called, for instance, "dan-nmh" (where username was "dan"
1454 and $USERNAME_EXTENSION was "-nmh").
1456 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtime.c patch:
1458 There's a wrap-around problem that affects the implementation
1459 of Zeller's congruence in dtime.c. This causes the day-of-week
1460 calculations to fail for dates after Feb 29, 2000 (probably up
1461 until some year far in the future).
1463 Mon Mar 06 12:20:20 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1465 * Applied Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s msh.c patch:
1467 I finally tracked down the problem in msh that was causing
1468 errors whenever I tried to examine a 'mmdf' style mailbox.
1470 It turns out that not enough memory was being allocated with
1471 calloc(), causing memory pointers to be overwritten and
1474 Fri Mar 03 16:07:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1476 * Changed the new "plussed_user" option to mts.conf's
1477 "masquerade:" to "username_extension" after getting feedback from
1478 qmail users, who use '-' as a separator rather than '+'. Removed
1479 checking of $USERPLUS variable. Now check $USERNAME_EXTENSION,
1480 which needs to include the appropriate separator for your MTA
1481 ('-', '+', or whatever) as its first character.
1483 Thu Mar 02 23:04:30 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1485 * Added a new "boolean" type to mh.h and TRUE and FALSE constants.
1487 * Added a note to DIFFERENCES stating that it's out-of-date
1488 (Richard was the last one to update it) and that we should
1489 consider only documenting incompatibilities with MH there.
1491 * Implemented (and documented) a third kind of username
1492 masquerading: "plussed user" masquerading. This one was suggested
1493 by Neil Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>. It's based on sendmail's
1494 "plussed user" feature, where mail sent to <user>+<string> will be
1495 delivered to <user>. When it's enabled, it's controlled by the
1496 $USERPLUS environment variable. How is it enabled? Well, that
1499 * Renamed the "mmailid:" setting in mts.conf to "masquerade:", and
1500 changed it so that rather than being a boolean, it can be set to
1501 any combination of the three values "draft_from", "mmailid", and
1502 "plussed_user". Thus it is now possible to enable the three types
1503 of masquerading individually.
1505 * Fixed a bug with "mmailid" masquerading (dating back to MH?)
1506 where if it was turned on, ','s would no longer be considered
1507 GECOS field delimiters.
1509 Wed Mar 01 23:30:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1511 * Changed the GECOS-field '&' translation behavior to be
1512 controlled by the BSD42 #define rather than GCOS_HACK, since it's
1513 apparently always appropriate on OSes where BSD42 is #defined, and
1514 never appropriate on any other OSes. Thanks to Kimmo Suominen for
1515 responding to my "What is this code here for?" comment in mts.c
1516 and explaining the feature.
1518 Mon Feb 28 21:50:29 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1520 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3+dev (ideally this should be
1521 done by whoever makes a release tar file, immediately after doing
1524 * Applied Paul Fox <pgf-spam@foxharp.boston.ma.us>'s scansbr.c
1525 patch, posted to comp.mail.mh, which he says prevents loss of mail
1526 when inc'ing into a full filesystem.
1528 * Changed "echo > stamp-h.in" in Makefile.in to "date > stamp-h.in"
1529 so that stamp-h.in will be different each time configure.in and
1530 related files are changed, making it easier to check it in (which
1531 is necessary to prevent unnecessary autoconf calls).
1533 * My declaration of initgroups() in slocal.c to eliminate the "no
1534 prototype" warning wasn't portable (FreeBSD 3.[23] choked). Now
1535 use AC_EGREP_HEADER to see where initgroups() is declared, if
1538 Sun Feb 20 12:17:15 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1540 * Fix security hole in mhshowsbr.c which allowed untrusted shell
1541 code to be executed.
1543 * Released nmh 1.0.3.
1545 Thu Feb 10 10:54:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1547 * Oops. %-escapes on mhstore lines in mhn.defaults.sh should not
1548 be surrounded by single quotes, as a shell is not spawned when
1549 just saving files, and the filenames will end up with literal
1550 quotes embedded in them.
1552 Fri Feb 04 12:29:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1554 * Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
1555 got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
1556 the -help output. One theory is that they were making reference
1557 to the fact that clearly you know about the -help option since
1558 you're currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea
1559 to overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
1560 supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
1563 The other theory is that because you can say something like
1564 "mhstore -" and get "mhstore: - ambiguous. It matches" followed
1565 by the same list of switches you get with -help, they were saying
1566 you can "sorta" abbreviate "-help" as "-". You don't get the
1567 "Usage:" string, though, so it's not really the same thing.
1569 Thu Feb 03 17:52:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1571 * Applied wesley.craig@umich.edu's KPOP patches. According to him:
1573 The following patch fixes a problem with requesting a
1574 service key for a machine that has multiple 'A' records. It
1575 also makes "-kpop" a command line option, for users who
1576 would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".
1578 Did no testing of the new features, as I don't have access to a
1581 * Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
1583 * Modified INSTALL and config.h.in to reflect the new -kpop feature.
1585 Fri Jan 28 17:39:24 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1587 * All %-escapes in mhn.defaults that actually expand to something
1588 should be surrounded by single quotes. Added quotes to the ones
1589 in mhn.defaults.sh that were missing them.
1591 * Added check for lynx to write mhshow-show-text/html line in
1594 Thu Jan 27 12:22:25 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1596 * makedir() had multiple bugs dating back to MH. An octal
1597 constant was apparently being interpreted as decimal, resulting in
1598 directories with no user read or execute permissions, making
1599 nested directory creation fail. And there wasn't even an
1600 _attempt_ to set desired permissions (e.g. from "Folder-Protect:"
1601 in .mh_profile) on the outer directories of a nested directory.
1603 * A second `make install' would always fail because the check for
1604 whether mh_profile.5 existed was written incorrectly.
1606 Wed Jan 26 02:22:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1608 * Added documentation on both types of masquerading to post's man
1611 Tue Jan 25 22:58:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1613 * Doug's portability fix of my setgid inc autodetection had a
1614 caching bug -- if you re-ran configure, uip/Makefile would be
1615 corrupted, and installation would bomb out on OSes where inc needs
1618 * Implemented a new kind of email address masquerading. Usually,
1619 when a user writes a custom "From:" header in a draft, nmh uses it
1620 rather than generating one. However, the user's true address is
1621 used in the SMTP envelope "From:" and is revealed in the "Sender:"
1622 header. Now, when mmailid is set to non-zero, the envelope
1623 "From:" uses the address specified in the draft "From:" header,
1624 and there is no "Sender:" header. This is useful when sending on
1625 behalf of a remote POP3 account or when remote mail robots
1626 incorrectly use the envelope "From:" in preference to the body
1627 "From:". This processing has only been implemented for post, not
1628 for the undocumented spost (which was already missing some "From:"
1629 processing that post has).
1631 Mon Jan 24 22:26:06 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1633 * Got rid of the rest of the gcc -Wall warnings that I didn't have
1634 time for on 1999-07-15 (and, it would seem, some new ones people
1635 introduced since then). The primary ones were the warnings that
1636 default prototypes were being used for [v]snprintf() and
1637 str[n]casecmp(). As of right now, there are _no_ compilation
1638 warnings except on dtimep.c-lexed (at least under AIX 4.1.5 and
1641 Sun Jan 2 23:42:18 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1643 * Move mhtest from bindir to libdir.
1645 * Move sendfiles from libdir to bindir.
1647 * Updated sendfiles manpage to reflect this change.
1649 * Added documentation for -build and -file switches to repl and
1650 forw manpages (patch from Peter Maydell).
1652 * Fixed interaction between specifying -cc in profile and -group on
1655 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1657 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
1658 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
1659 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
1662 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1664 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
1665 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
1666 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
1667 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
1668 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
1669 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).
1671 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1673 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
1675 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1677 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
1678 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
1679 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
1680 caught again. This works for now.
1682 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
1684 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1686 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
1687 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
1689 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1691 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
1692 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
1694 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
1696 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
1698 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1700 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
1701 changes. Both need more cleanup.
1703 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1705 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
1706 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
1707 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
1708 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
1709 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
1712 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1714 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
1715 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
1716 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
1718 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
1719 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
1722 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1724 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
1725 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
1726 to a directory on another device with more free space.
1728 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1730 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
1731 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
1733 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1735 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
1738 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
1739 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
1741 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
1742 macros, regardless of platform.
1744 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
1745 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1747 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
1748 with x-conversions=gzip.
1750 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1752 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
1755 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
1756 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
1757 implicit definition of ioctl().
1759 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
1760 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
1761 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
1762 want to mess with them.
1764 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1766 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
1767 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
1769 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
1770 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
1772 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
1773 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
1774 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
1776 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
1777 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
1778 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
1780 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
1781 function initgroups.
1783 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
1786 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
1787 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
1790 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
1791 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
1794 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
1795 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
1799 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1801 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
1802 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
1803 preventing compilation on at least linux.
1805 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
1806 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
1808 Thu Sep 09 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1810 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
1812 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
1813 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
1814 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
1815 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
1817 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
1818 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
1820 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1822 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
1824 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1826 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
1827 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
1829 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1831 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
1832 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
1834 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
1835 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
1836 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
1837 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
1839 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
1840 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
1842 Sat Jun 09 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1844 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
1845 substitute it for mktemp if available.
1847 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1849 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
1850 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
1853 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
1855 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
1857 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
1859 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
1860 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
1862 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
1863 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
1864 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
1866 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
1867 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
1868 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
1870 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
1871 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
1872 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1874 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
1875 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
1878 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
1879 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1881 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
1882 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1884 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
1885 <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1887 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
1888 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
1889 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1891 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
1892 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1894 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
1895 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
1896 <elleron@servtech.com>.
1898 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
1899 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
1902 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
1903 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
1905 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
1906 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
1907 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
1908 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
1910 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
1911 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
1913 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1917 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
1918 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
1919 would not be changed.
1921 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
1922 one from the Apache web server.
1924 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
1925 (this should have been done a long time ago).
1927 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
1928 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
1929 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
1931 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
1933 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
1935 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
1936 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
1939 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
1940 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
1941 removes a bad race condition.
1943 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
1946 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
1947 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
1948 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
1950 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
1951 sequence information.
1953 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
1954 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
1956 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
1959 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
1962 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
1964 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
1965 interpret 034 as octal.
1967 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
1969 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
1970 mhstore, and mhbuild.
1972 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
1973 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
1975 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
1976 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
1978 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
1979 in the c_cefile structure when building.
1981 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
1982 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
1984 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
1985 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
1986 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
1988 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
1989 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
1990 and mhshow. Updated man pages
1992 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
1994 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
1996 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
1997 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
2000 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
2002 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
2003 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
2005 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
2006 header field information.
2008 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
2009 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
2011 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
2012 values when parsing a content.
2014 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
2015 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
2017 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
2018 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
2020 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
2021 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
2023 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
2024 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
2026 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
2028 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
2030 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
2032 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
2034 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
2035 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
2038 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
2039 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
2041 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
2042 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
2043 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
2044 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
2045 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
2046 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
2049 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
2051 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
2052 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
2053 buffer length checks for this parameter.
2055 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
2056 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
2058 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
2060 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
2061 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
2062 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
2063 of the limits on the length of command lines.
2065 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
2066 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
2069 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
2070 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
2071 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
2072 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
2075 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2077 * Released nmh-0.27.
2079 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
2080 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
2082 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
2083 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
2084 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
2085 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
2088 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
2089 mhbuild returns an error.
2091 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
2092 rename the draft file.
2094 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
2095 use a global variable.
2097 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
2098 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
2100 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
2101 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
2103 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
2104 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
2105 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
2107 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
2108 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
2110 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
2111 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
2114 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
2115 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
2118 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
2119 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
2121 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
2122 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
2123 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
2125 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
2126 to new function output_content_folder.
2128 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
2129 new function output_content_file.
2131 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
2132 to new function parse_format_string.
2134 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
2135 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
2136 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
2137 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
2139 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
2140 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
2141 message/external file from ftp.
2143 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
2144 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
2145 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
2147 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
2148 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
2151 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
2154 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
2155 new file mhstoresbr.c
2157 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
2160 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
2161 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
2163 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
2164 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
2166 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
2167 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
2168 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
2170 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
2172 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
2174 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
2175 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
2178 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
2179 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
2181 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
2184 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
2186 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2188 * Released nmh-0.26.
2190 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
2191 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
2192 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
2193 is still the same (dashstuffing).
2195 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
2196 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
2197 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
2198 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
2199 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
2201 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
2202 But it is not on by default.
2204 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
2205 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
2207 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
2209 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
2211 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
2213 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
2215 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
2216 number of the "cur" message when packing.
2218 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2220 * Released nmh-0.25.
2222 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
2223 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
2224 uses the original name of the library.
2226 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
2227 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
2230 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
2231 list_content and list_debug.
2233 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
2235 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
2236 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.
2238 1998-02-27 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2240 * Released nmh-0.24.
2242 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
2244 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
2245 are given, that order doesn't matter.
2247 * Fix bug in seq_list.c when realloc'ing for
2248 large sequence line.
2250 1998-02-23 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2252 * Released nmh-0.23.
2254 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
2256 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
2257 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan
2258 content, decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary
2259 string). I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
2261 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
2262 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
2265 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
2267 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
2269 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
2271 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
2272 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
2274 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
2275 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.
2277 * Add note to MACHINES file that on Linux, configure
2278 doesn't find the functions sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
2280 * Fix configuration for machines that don't have (or find)
2281 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
2283 1998-02-11 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2285 * Released nmh-0.22.
2287 * Add a configure check for sigsetjmp. Add some conditional
2288 #define's in h/signals.h in case it's not found.
2290 * Added additional notes about -auto switch in mhn man page.
2292 * Added note about MM_CHARSET environment variable to
2293 mh-profile(5) man page.
2295 * Fix signal problem in mhn.c (change setjmp/longjmp to
2296 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp).
2298 1998-02-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2300 * Released nmh-0.22-pre1.
2302 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
2303 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
2305 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
2307 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
2308 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
2309 entry point for parsing MIME files.
2311 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
2312 source message on the standard input.
2314 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
2316 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
2317 rather than -rfc934mode.
2319 * Fix mhbuild, so that Content-Description and RFC-822 comments
2320 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
2323 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
2324 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).
2326 * Restore HP specific code to zotnet/tws/lexstring.c. Apparently
2329 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2331 * Released nmh-0.21.
2333 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
2334 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.
2336 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what transfer
2339 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what character set
2340 to use for text contents.
2342 * Removed old hpux specific code from zotnet/tws/lexstring.c
2344 1998-02-02 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2346 * Released nmh-0.21-pre2.
2348 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
2350 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
2351 header fields as per RFC-2047.
2353 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
2354 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
2355 spaces between encoded word are.
2357 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
2359 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
2360 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
2362 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
2363 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
2364 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
2366 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
2368 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
2369 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
2371 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.
2373 * Added support for %(decode) to fmtdump.c.
2375 * check_charset() now accepts US-ASCII as a subset of any
2376 ISO-8859-X character set.
2378 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
2381 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
2382 permissions, not write permissions.
2384 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
2385 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
2387 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
2390 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2392 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
2394 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
2395 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
2397 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
2398 message contains valid character set.
2400 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
2401 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
2403 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
2404 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
2406 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
2407 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
2408 between an encoded word and normal text.
2410 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
2411 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
2413 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
2414 as a RFC-2047 header field.
2416 * The command install-mh now recognizes the switches -version
2419 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
2420 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
2423 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
2424 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
2426 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
2427 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
2429 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
2431 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2433 * Released nmh-0.20.
2435 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
2437 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.
2439 * Changed the default format file for mhl (mhl.format) to
2440 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
2441 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
2443 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
2444 and the To: line was missing.
2446 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
2448 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2450 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
2452 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
2453 watch the POP transaction.
2455 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
2456 first, and use it if available.
2458 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
2459 first, and use it if available.
2461 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2463 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
2465 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
2466 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
2467 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
2470 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
2471 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
2472 returns the state FLDPLUS.
2474 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
2475 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
2478 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
2480 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
2481 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
2483 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
2485 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
2486 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
2488 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
2489 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
2490 message to which you are replying.
2492 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
2493 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
2494 making group replies.
2496 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
2498 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2500 * Released nmh-0.19.
2502 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
2503 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
2505 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
2506 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
2507 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
2508 to the end of the man page.
2510 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
2511 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
2512 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
2513 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
2514 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
2515 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
2517 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
2520 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
2521 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
2522 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
2524 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
2525 the next available number above the message number you wish
2528 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
2529 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
2531 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
2532 file sbr/seq_print.c
2534 * flist will now update the current folder.
2536 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
2537 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
2538 but now undocumented.
2540 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
2543 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
2544 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
2546 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
2548 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
2549 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
2551 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2553 * Released nmh-0.18.
2555 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
2556 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
2557 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
2559 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
2560 retains the public/private status of sequences.
2562 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
2563 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
2564 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
2565 previous public/private status.
2567 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
2570 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
2573 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
2574 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
2575 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
2577 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
2578 take option to determine whether it should get current
2579 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
2580 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
2582 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
2584 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
2585 wait for stopped processes.
2587 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
2588 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
2590 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2592 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
2594 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
2595 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
2597 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
2598 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
2600 * Change the way that memory for message status is
2601 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
2602 the folder/message structure. This required changing
2603 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
2605 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
2608 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
2611 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
2613 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
2614 the debugging output.
2616 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
2617 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
2619 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2621 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
2623 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
2624 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
2626 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
2628 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
2629 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
2630 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
2631 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
2632 in the given sequence.
2634 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
2635 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
2636 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
2637 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
2638 subdirectories of a given directory.
2640 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
2641 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
2642 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
2644 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
2645 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
2647 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
2649 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
2652 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
2653 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
2654 fields are now calculated at runtime.
2656 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
2657 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
2658 are calculated at runtime.
2660 Sun Nov 30 19:14:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2662 * Released nmh-0.18-pre2.
2664 * Add paragraph to man page for install-mh and to INSTALL file
2665 about checking for global mh.profile.
2667 * Renamed m_find() to context_find().
2668 Renamed m_replace() to context_replace().
2669 Renamed m_delete() to context_del().
2670 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
2671 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
2672 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
2674 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
2675 adding message to folder itself.
2677 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
2678 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
2679 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
2682 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
2683 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
2686 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
2687 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
2688 is the same as the direct smtp code).
2690 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
2691 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
2693 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
2694 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
2695 code to use it yet).
2697 Thu Nov 13 18:42:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2699 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.
2701 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never
2702 called with a value larger than 30 mintues.
2704 * Fixed race condition in rmm and refile, so that
2705 context is updated before external rmmproc is called.
2707 * Removed all the OVERHEAD code.
2709 * Move code to add message to folder from refile.c
2712 Fri Jul 25 19:39:29 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2714 * Did some rearranging of the internals of inc.c.
2716 * Make -inplace the default for anno, forw, dist, and repl.
2718 * Changed --enable-smtp to --with-mts={smtp,sendmail}
2720 * Created new directory mts/sendmail for direct sendmail
2721 interface (although it currently still uses SMTP).
2723 * Removed all the TMA (trusted mail agent) code
2725 * Removed all the TTYD (terminal access daemon) code
2727 * Removed all the MF (uucp filtering) code.
2729 * Removed all the code for BERK.
2731 * Removed all the code for stand-alone delivery (MHMTS).
2733 * Split the file mts/sendmail/smail.c into sendmail.c and
2734 smtp.c. Changed the name of the directory to mts/smtp.
2736 * Changed autoconf to use @sysconfdir@ for location of
2737 configuration files.
2739 * Changed #define in mhn.c from FTP to BUILTIN_FTP.
2741 Mon Jul 21 03:22:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2743 * Released nmh-0.17.
2745 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
2747 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
2748 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
2750 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
2753 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
2754 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
2756 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
2757 number of refiled message.
2759 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
2761 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
2762 for return value of wait().
2764 * Change configure to also check /bin for "more".
2766 Sat Jul 12 00:02:23 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2768 * Released nmh-0.16.
2770 Mon Jun 23 20:13:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2772 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
2774 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
2775 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
2776 deal with binary messages, yet).
2778 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
2780 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
2782 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
2783 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
2784 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
2785 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
2786 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
2787 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
2789 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
2790 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
2792 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
2793 From MH-6.8.4 patch.
2795 * Fix double free of ctinfo in user_content when using
2796 #forw with single message. From John MacMillan (and
2799 * Changed -mhnproc switch for show, to -showmimeproc.
2801 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".
2803 * Added "mime" option to "whatnow", which calls the program
2804 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
2807 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
2810 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
2812 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
2813 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
2814 which used unsigned chars by default.

2831 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
2832 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
2834 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
2835 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
2837 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
2839 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
2840 they conflict with defines on AIX.
2842 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
2843 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
2844 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
2845 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
2847 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
2848 and put in own subroutine.
2850 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
2851 and put in own subroutine.

2861 * Changed m_setunseen, msh, mshcmds, flist, and scan to use
2864 * Changed m_seqflag to return the number of a sequence rather
2865 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
2866 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.

2880 * Changed mark.c and pick.c to use m_seqaddsel and m_seqdelsel.
2882 * Added new function m_seqdelsel to m_seqdel.c, which deletes
2883 all selected messages from a sequence.
2885 * Added new function m_seqaddsel to m_seqadd.c, which adds all
2886 selected messages to a sequence.
2888 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,
2891 Thu May 15 00:53:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

2935 * Released nmh-0.13.
2937 * Changed mhpath so it doesn't abort if a message sequence
2938 such as "mhpath all" expands to more than 1000 messages.
2939 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
2940 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
2943 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
2944 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
2946 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2948 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if
2949 necessary. So `folders' can now handle more than 300 folders.
2951 Tue Apr 22 14:01:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2953 * Change configure to use a compile check to see if the tm struct

2982 will suppress the display of the message header.
2984 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
2986 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c
2987 and mshcmds.c, rather than hard coding in /bin/cat.

2996 500 elements at a time (rather than MAXFOLDERS / 5).
2998 * Add note to man page for mhmail that zero length messages are
2999 not sent. Need to use -body "" to send empty messages.
3001 * zotnet/mts/mts.c : compare character with '\0', not NULL.
3003 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
3005 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
3006 folder/message structure when done with folder.
3008 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is
3009 defined even if message is missing "From " line.

3071 * Released nmh-0.08.
3073 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
3074 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of
3075 locking database itself.

3082 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
3085 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
3086 rather than mmdf format.
3088 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
3089 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
3090 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
3091 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.

3101 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
3102 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
3104 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
3105 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
3106 rcvpack so you can choose the preferred format.
3108 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3110 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
3111 can still easily change this in config.h).
3113 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
3114 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
3115 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
3117 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3119 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather

3134 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
3136 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
3137 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
3140 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
3141 built-in FTP client in mhn.

3154 * Released nmh-0.06.
3156 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
3157 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
3159 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
3160 many such machines around anymore.
3162 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
3163 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
3165 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
3166 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
3168 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3170 * Check lex generated file in zotnet/tws and use
3171 pre-generated version if necessary.
3173 * Released nmh-0.05.
3175 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
3176 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
3177 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
3178 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
3180 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
3181 be linked in one pass.
3183 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3185 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
3186 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
3188 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3190 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
3192 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3194 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
3195 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
3196 become the current folder.
3198 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3200 * Released nmh-0.04.

3205 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3207 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
3208 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
3209 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
3211 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3213 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
3214 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
3216 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3218 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
3219 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
3222 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
3223 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
3225 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3227 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
3228 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
3229 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
3230 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
3231 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
3232 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
3234 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3236 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
3237 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
3239 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
3240 a file (currently need to specify full path).
3242 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3244 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
3245 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
3247 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3249 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
3250 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
3251 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
3253 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3255 * Released nmh-0.03.
3257 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
3258 .mh_sequence file existed.
3260 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
3261 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
3263 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
3264 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
3267 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3269 * Changed flist option -unseen to -[no]all. Cleaned up
3272 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3274 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
3275 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
3276 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
3278 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3280 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
3281 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
3282 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
3284 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3286 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL
3287 and allocate its own buffer. Borrowed from zsh.
3289 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
3291 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3293 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
3294 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
3295 directory from where the source code is located.
3297 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3299 * Released nmh-0.02.

3319 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
3320 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
3321 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
3322 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
3323 rather than in script.
3325 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3327 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
3329 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with

3334 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
3335 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
3337 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
3338 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
3339 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
3340 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
3343 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3345 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
3346 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.

3360 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
3361 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
3363 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3365 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
3366 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
3367 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
3368 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
3369 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
3370 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
3372 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3374 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
3376 * Released nmh-0.01.
3378 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
3379 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
3380 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
3383 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3385 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
3388 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

3391 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
3393 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3395 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
3396 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
3397 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit

3402 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
3403 speed up -recurse option.
3405 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
3406 yet, but it compiles :-)
3408 * Changed default location for install to
3409 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
3410 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
3411 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
3414 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
3415 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
3416 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
