3 * -L isn't sufficient for specifying the path of the Cyrus SASL
4 shared library. That'll allow us to link successfully, but on
5 many/most OSes that won't allow us to find libsasl at runtime. On
6 Solaris, we need to specify the library path with -R as well (or
7 else the user will have to use the $LD_LIBRARY_PATH kludge, which
8 is considered harmful). This fix should be extended to other OSes
11 * Print whether we have SASL support in the "nmh configuration"
12 summary configure prints out.
14 Thu Jan 25 21:15:52 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
16 * man/mh-chart.man has updated synposes of
19 Tue Jan 23 20:26:15 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
21 * etc/digestcomps tried to force dates into a
22 19xx when it's not necessary.
24 Fri Jan 19 21:22:08 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
26 * First round of manpage updates finished. They
27 are standardized on -man macros, with minimal
30 * man/tmac.h.in is no longer needed, since the
31 manpages do not depend on them anymore. Note:
32 strict "man" programs that didn't allow ".so"
33 sourcing outside the man tree will now format
34 the man pages correctly.
36 * man/vmh.1 is no longer built, since uip/vmh isn't
38 Tue Jan 9 6:01:22 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
40 * Finished manpages ali-prev
42 * Removed deprecated files from the repository.
43 Specifically, those rooted in zotnet/ and mts/sendmail
44 mts/mmdf. "cvs update -dP" will give a pruned directory
47 * Updated docs/Makefile.in to include README.manpages, and
48 uip/Makefile.in to include popi.c (which isn't being built,
49 though). This allows "make nmhdist" to create an archive that
50 is file-for-file identical to the current cvs repository.
52 Sun Dec 31 20:48:50 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
54 * Create docs/README.manpages, which details
55 the formatting rules I've been using.
59 Sat Dec 30 9:50:13 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
61 * Created a new file "DATE" to hold the date
62 of the most recent nmh release. This date will be
65 * Updated docs/README.developers to add the step
66 of updating DATE. Also, updated configure to
67 read in the contents of the file as the variable
70 * Started work on updating man pages, with only
71 ali finished so far. Changes: 1) no dependence
72 on an external macro file, 2) uses only
73 -man macros (although I may be mistaken in this),
74 3) syntax in the SYNOPSIS is a little more
75 in line with standard UNIX documentation, such as
76 bold flags and italicized parameters.
78 Sun Dec 24 10:06:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
80 * Updated INSTALL with information about the
81 --with-locking option.
83 * Fixed the Hesiod tests in configure.in. In
84 systems where res_send was in -lresolv, this
85 information was not being communicated to the
86 HESIOD_LIBS var. Now, if res_send is not found
87 in the default libraries, it's assumed to be
88 in -lresolv, and thus -lresolv is appended to
89 HESIOD_LIBS, which will need that to avoid
90 undefined symbols problems.
92 * Fixed the Kerberos tests in configure.in. New
93 versions of Kerberos 5 have renamed -lcrypto
94 to -lk5crypto (circa krb5 1.1 or thereabouts). The
95 new test tries to determine if -lk5crypto exists. If so,
96 this is a new krb5 system. If not, test for -lcrypto
97 and the rest of old krb5. If that fails, look
98 for a genuine krb4 installation.
100 Fri Dec 22 22:08:51 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
102 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in msgchk.man.
103 -snoop was documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
105 Fri Dec 22 23:42:16 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
107 * Made a new ./configure option called
108 "--with-locking" that allows the file
109 locking mechanism to be chosen there instead of
110 requiring a manual edit of config.h.
112 * If the option is not explicitly set, or an
113 invalid option is specified, "dot" locking is
114 chosen. Valid options are "dot", "fcntl",
115 "flock", and "lockf". We need a way to tell
116 the user that these are the valid options, and
117 change the flag "--with-locking" if it's not
120 Fri Dec 22 19:21:29 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
122 * Remove the lex-specific memory hints at the
123 beginning of sbr/dtimep.lex. We've already
124 committed to supporting flex only, since
125 lex does not easily allow us to parse a single
126 string, as well as other problems documented
127 below and on nmh-workers.
129 * Added a switch statement to configure.in to
130 test for Mac OS X. If this is the case, LDFLAGS
131 should not contain "-s" since the linker rejects
134 * Updated MACHINES to include Mac OS X Public Beta,
135 as well as Linux 2.4 running glibc 2.2.
137 Wed Dec 20 16:00:46 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
139 * Marked deprecated directories in docs/README.developers
140 as deprecated, with pointers to the new code location.
141 Eventually these deprecated directories should go away.
143 Tue Dec 19 19:16:37 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
145 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in inc.man. -snoop was
146 documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
148 Thu Dec 14 14:32:09 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
150 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
151 versions on ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/config, dated
152 12-07-00. This should prevent configure from failing
153 on newer operating systems because config.{guess,sub}
154 couldn't correctly identify them.
156 Thu Dec 14 1:30:44 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
158 * Fixed the circular dependency created when I moved
159 zotnet/mts to mts/generic and merged them into libmts.
160 mts/generic/client.c and mts/generic/mts.c are now in sbr/
161 (and thus in libmh), which makes libmh self-contained and
162 not depending on an external archive.
164 * All include statements now look for mts.h in h/. The
165 Makefiles and configure script have been modified so that
166 mts/generic is no longer built.
168 Mon Dec 11 22:08:07 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
170 * When Shantonu made the new libmts.a, he swapped $(MTSLIB) and
171 libmh.a in sbr/Makefile.in so that libmh.a comes first, but this
172 causes the build to fail on Solaris, because libmts.a has to get
173 ruserpass() out of libmh.a. Swapping them back to the way Ken
174 Hornstein's patch (which I applied on Jul 20) put them, with
175 libmh.a correctly coming second. If there are times when libmts.a
176 needs to come second, then it would appear there's a circular
177 dependency and someone (Shantonu?) did an mts merge incorrectly.
179 Fri Sep 8 01:36:23 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
181 * Took out bad time textual time zones like BST and JST.
182 I found them online somewhere, but am not sure if they're
185 Fri Sep 8 00:36:48 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
187 * Moved zotnet/mts to mts/generic. This code reorganization
188 makes the entire zotnet tree deprecated -- bboards is unneeded,
189 mf was was moved to sbr, tws was rewritten and moved to sbr, and
192 * Created a new static library called libmts.a used during
193 compilation which includes the generic mts code and the
194 smtp/sendmail code. This supercedes the functionality of the
195 old libsmtp.a and the remains of libzot.a.
197 * Updated header includes to reference the new location of mts.h
198 in mts/generic/mts.h. Also, update the configure and top-level
199 Makefile not to descend into zotnet. Also, they don't descend
200 into mts/mmdf and mts/sendmail (the sendmail code has been
201 merged into the smtp code).
203 * Added #include <h/nmh.h> to h/md5.h, since my compile was
204 complaining about implicitly-declared memcpy and memset, which
205 appear to be in strings.h. In any event, nmh.h should take care
208 * When doing a "make nmhdist", notice that the generated
209 snapshot does not include zotnet of the mts directories as noted
210 above. Since they are no longer compiled, and I don't see any
211 obvious code path to get to them, end-users should probably
212 not need them. If you think otherwise, turn Makefile generation
213 back on in configure.in and turn on recursion into those dirs
214 in the appropriate Makefile.in
216 Wed Sep 6 22:40:03 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
218 * Tracked down the problem in the new dtimep where time
219 zones were being radically misreported. It was because the
220 parser knew about military time zones (such as M or E) but in
221 some cases did not know about the textual representation of
222 some zones (like MET). When it encountered one of these, the
223 date parser misread MET as the military time zone T (well, first
224 zone M, then E, and finally T). I took military zones out, and
225 things seem much better. Also, the default behavior of parsing
226 time zones appears to default to GMT in the absence of better
227 info, which is less bogus than assuming the mail came from the
228 current time zone, which was the behavior in 1.04.
230 Thu Aug 10 13:22:13 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
232 * Decided that limiting the message number columns to 3 on my
233 scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD (to try to regain space taken by
234 extra date info) was ill-conceived. It's not that tough to get
235 past 999 messages, though I imagine it's rather rare to exceed
236 9999. Changed these to 4. Also put the "replied / encrypted"
237 column back in YYYYMMDD -- I've never seen it show anything but a
238 space, but that space is useful if you use scan, grep, and awk
239 (with the default field separator) to grab message numbers (I know
240 -- pick should really be used for these purposes...).
242 Mon Aug 7 20:11:09 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
244 * Modify umask set by mhshow to enable user execute bit, so that
245 viewers that create temporary directories (e.g., lynx) will be
248 Thu Aug 03 17:14:08 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
250 * TODO: Allow multiple simultaneous differing contexts, probably
251 each tied to a parent (terminal) process.
253 Tue Aug 1 10:48:05 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
255 * Makefile install rules should not look for generated files in
256 the source tree -- this will happen to work when configuring and
257 building inside the source tree but will fail when using an
258 external build tree. Fixed etc/Makefile.in.
260 Mon Jul 24 16:20:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
262 * When Shantonu wrote the new, more portable dtimep.lex, he left
263 out the #ifdef DSTXXX stuff for some reason. Not a good idea, as
264 that code is required for proper printing of numeric-offset
265 timezones that have daylight saving time. Without that code,
266 -0700 during DST gets printed as MST instead of PDT.
268 * Renamed DSTXXX as ADJUST_NUMERIC_ONLY_TZ_OFFSETS_WRT_DST and
269 added an explanatory comment by its #definition.
271 * Updated README.developers with the fact that zotnet/tws is going away.
273 Thu Jul 20 20:30:52 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
275 * Moved Kimmo's new "--with-hash-backup" to be output with the
276 rest of the --with options in the configure --help output. Also,
277 people did not preserve my alphabetization of the --with options
278 when they added new ones. Re-alphabetized.
280 * One more pass at README.developers now that it's clear that my
281 previously-suggested one-line autoconf-file commit can cause
282 unnecessary local makes and an out-of-sync stamp-h.in file, but
283 would not cause problems for other people using the CVS files.
285 * Ken Hornstein's SASL patch was not integrated properly with
286 Ruud's new merged mts/sendmail code. Kimmo has since fixed nmh so
287 it compiles, but according to Ken, the SASL stuff still does not
288 work. Integrating a patch from him for this.
290 * Last pass at README.developers -- Kimmo's 5-step commit was
291 overkill. You only need 3 steps, since configure.in is the only
292 autoconf file with the RCS $Id keyword.
294 * Applied Kurt J. Lidl <lidl@eng.us.uu.net>'s $MAILHOST patch:
296 I have a small patch that would be nice to be included --
297 basically, it allows the usage of the "MAILHOST" environment
298 variable, without having to have HESIOD turned on. I need
299 this functionality for my environment, where we have identical
300 /usr/local on all my machines (so I cannot just hardcode into
301 the mts.conf file), and I have multiple POP mail servers for
304 Modified inc.man to reflect that along with "pophost:" and -host,
305 $MAILHOST can now activate POP mail inclusion as well.
307 * Fixed warnings from diff on first-time install of nmh. Also
308 added 'echo's clarifying the etc file installation activities.
310 Tue Jul 18 19:36:59 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
312 * Added the answer to Dan's question in README.developers.
314 Mon Jul 17 19:10:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
316 * Clarified and made some corrections to Kimmo's README.developers
317 changes (BTW, if anyone can explain why the RCS Ids are able to cause
318 problems with the dependencies, please fill in the explanation --
319 I never encountered a problem with the old single-commit method).
321 Sat Jul 15 23:13:49 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
323 * Add configure option --with-hash-backup so the backup prefix can
324 be easily changed from "," to "#".
326 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that it works with any make.
328 * Use mkstemp in sbr/lock_file.c.
330 * Commits of autoconf-related files apparently can't all be done
331 in one shot due to RCS Ids changing when committing -- updated
334 Tue Jul 11 14:18:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
336 * Clarified post.man and send.man for those not completely up on
337 SASL terminology. "SASL encryption layers are not supported for
338 SMTP" means that encryption is supported for the authentication
339 but not for the subsequent data stream.
341 Sat Jul 8 01:36:19 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
343 * Applied Ken Hornstein <kenh@cmf.nrl.navy.mil>'s patches
344 implementing SASL support for POP3 and SMTP. If nmh is compiled
345 with SASL support, using the -sasl switch on the inc, msgchk,
346 post, and send commands will enable authentication encryption for
347 SMTP, and both authentication and data stream encryption for POP3.
349 Sat Jun 10 18:37:59 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
351 * Merged mts/sendmail functionality into mts/smtp; switching between
352 smtp and sendmail delivery method is now controlled by mts.conf.
354 * If tsort cannot deal with loops, in addition to defining tsort as
355 cat, also define lorder as echo.
357 * Removed uip/popi.c from list of sources.
359 Thu Jun 08 19:36:57 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
361 * New dtimep.lex didn't parse day names properly. Fixed. Also
362 clarified ambiguous comments preceding day_map[] array (from old
363 dtimep.lex) that probably led to the erroneous cp++ being added.
365 Wed Jun 7 20:52:33 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
367 * Added one more mkstemp invocation to uip/spost.c (which was in a
370 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to clean up permissions handling
371 and error handling in uip/inc.c.
373 Mon Jun 5 22:10:07 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
375 * Use cat instead of tsort if tsort cannot deal with loops in its
376 input (which is the case for tsort from GNU textutils).
378 Mon Jun 5 21:14:36 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
380 * If lockfile is present, and its dotlockfile program is setgid,
381 inc does not need to be setgid.
383 Sun Jun 4 21:35:40 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
385 * Added autoconf test for Miquel van Smoorenburg's liblockfile
386 library, as found on Debian systems.
388 * Added liblockfile support to sbr/lock_file.c.
390 Wed May 31 7:19:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
392 * Fixed up dtimep.lex a bit. Added back memory options for AIX to
393 increase available memory. Took out %option noyywrap, which
394 wasn't understood by AT&T lex, as well as the -i
395 case-insensitivity flag.
397 Wed May 31 07:40:45 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
399 * Added a lint target to the Makefiles and a check in autoconf
400 to determine whether lint or lclint exists on the system.
402 Fri May 30 19:21:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
404 * etc/Makefile.in was incorrectly installing mts.conf.in and
405 sendfiles.in -- fixed. Generated sendfiles script was not a
406 dependency of the `all' target, and was incorrectly included in
407 the distribution. Changed the suffix for the backed-up previous
408 versions of the etc files from the ambiguous .old to .prev. Added
409 call to diff -- only keep the .prev files around if different from
410 the newly-installed versions (intentionally didn't redirect output
411 to /dev/null so you'll notice when your changed versions are
412 getting moved aside).
414 * INSTALL never documented the etc/*.old thing. Documented the
415 new etc/*.prev thing (including a note to watch for diff output).
417 * Applied Alec Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu>'s dropsbr.c patch:
419 In the map_write routine, a call is made to map_open and this
420 call is supposed to set the "clear" variable to 0 or 1,
421 depending on whether the map file is empty or not. In
422 mh6.8.3, this worked because map_open would set "clear" by
423 calling the mbx_Xopen routine. In nmh, the code for mbx_Xopen
424 was merged into mbx_open, but the interface for mbx_open
425 doesn't support the clear variable, so that functionality was
426 lost. The map_open interface still contains "int *clear" in
427 the prototype, but never sets it.
429 My patch eliminates "clear" from the map_open interface (I
430 checked to make sure that map_write is the only client of
431 map_open). Furthermore, my patch also sets the "clear"
432 variable properly at the beginning of map_write by calling
433 fstat(). This eliminates the bug in that the value of "clear"
434 being used later in the routine was just stack garbage.
436 Having a bad value of clear causes this next bug to be
437 triggered: The fp file pointer was being opened with fdopen,
438 but in two of the three switch cases it wasn't being closed.
439 In certain cases, this was causing packf to run out of file
440 descriptors if you attempted to pack a large folder.
442 Mon May 29 7:48:15 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
444 * Moved the date parsing routines from zotnet/tws to sbr/ (and
445 tws.h to h/). Updated all source files to reflect to new location
448 * Rewrote dparsetime (in dtimep.lex -> dtimep.c) to replace the
449 old zotnet/tws/dtimep.c, dtimep.lex, lexstring.c, lexedit.c, and
450 dtimep.c-lexed. It should now work with flex (although untested
451 with lex), and requires no sed-ing. For now, I have the lexed
452 version in the distribution, so that end-users don't need to worry
453 about running it through flex/lex. I have not added back support
454 for guessing the time zone when it's not specified.
456 Sun May 28 17:44:15 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
458 * Added autoconf check for getutent().
460 * Changed uip/rcvtty.c and uip/slocal.c to use getutent() and
461 friends. Since I can only check on Linux, please check if
462 this works on other systems.
464 Sun May 28 14:58:49 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
466 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to uip/scansbr.c for more
467 checks for write failures.
469 * Unlink temporary file properly in uip/rcvtty.c.
471 * Moved viamail from bindir to libdir.
473 * Changed sendfiles into sendfiles.in, so that path to viamail
476 * Added gzip support to sendfiles.
478 * Added References header to replcomps and replgroupcomps.
480 Sun May 28 14:39:31 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
482 * Fixed m_getfld bug which caused segmentation faults when
483 incorporating messages which ended in multiple linefeeds crossing
486 Fri May 26 13:21:59 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
488 * msh has been unable to show MIME messages ever since 1.0. Alec
489 Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu> tracked down the problem to the
490 -show flag being passed to mhshow. mhshow is equivalent to the
491 old mhn -show, so we don't need the -show anymore. Removed it.
493 Fri May 12 02:51:21 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
495 * zotnet/bboards is not longer built by default. Goal is to move
496 the assorted functions in zotnet into sbr or some more logical
499 * Moved zotnet/mf to sbr, and changed mf.h references accordingly,
500 as well as Makefiles.
502 Thu May 11 02:21:34 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
504 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that both SRCS and OBJS aren't
505 seperately and redundantly defined, but so that OBJS is a
506 pattern-substituted version of SRCS with suffix .c -> .o. This
507 should make maintainability easier.
509 * Added section to MACHINES indicating what platforms nmh is known
510 to compile and work on, just to give users peace of mind, or
511 something. This is by no means complete or exhaustive, so add
512 whatever you know works.
514 Tue May 09 20:38:04 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
516 * Alphabetized Shantonu's $pop_kinds output on configure's "pop is
517 enabled" line. If POP3 is the only kind of POP enabled, say so,
518 rather than just saying "yes" (which is ambiguous).
520 * Fixed four warnings in Shantonu's new getpass.c. Needed to
521 #include <stdlib.h> for calloc(), <unistd.h> for ttyname(), and
522 "h/mh.h" for adios(). Also changed ch from char to int to get rid
523 of "comparison is always 1 due to limited range of data type" on EOF.
525 * Added steps to README.developers saying to change the version
526 number to X.Y.Z+dev. Did a little rearranging and changed the FTP
527 dir from /home/ftp to /var/ftp to reflect Doug's new machine.
529 * Changed configure.in to use gcc -Wall even without
530 --enable-debug, to prevent developers compiling optimized from
531 introducing warnings, and to give end-users a warm, fuzzy feeling
532 as they (hopefully) see no warnings come out (except perhaps on
533 the lex output file) even with -Wall.
535 * Renamed getpass() to nmh_getpass() since the prototype for
536 getpass() varies from OS to OS, and we want to _always_ use our
537 version of the function. Fixed all the callers to use
538 nmh_getpass() and added it to prototypes.h. Semi-arbitrarily
539 upped MAX_PASSWORD_LEN from 128 to 256. buf was being calloc()'d
540 and the memory leaked -- should have just been declared as static
541 char array. Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the
542 copyright message, as this version has been changed significantly
543 from the BSD version.
545 * Added "nmh-local functions to use in preference to OS versions"
546 section to README.developers (currently just says to use
547 nmh_getpass() instead of system getpass()).
549 * Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the copyright message
552 * Added mts.conf.5 page per Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s
555 This happens on solaris:
558 windex entry incorrect: mts.conf(5) not found.
559 No manual entry for mts.conf.
563 % echo ".so man5/mh-tailor.5" > mts.conf.5
565 done in the man5 directory. We need to add 'mts.conf.5' as a
566 reference sourcing mh-tailor.5.
568 Mon May 08 23:51:55 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
570 * Doug informed me that the way I had restored the "lost" version
571 histories was wrong, because `cvs checkout's of old versions of
572 nmh wouldn't work properly. It occurs to me that this could be
573 fixed by simply deleting those tags in the new-location *,v files,
574 but oh well. I'm putting everything back to the way Doug
575 originally had it. To get the old version history for a file that
576 used to be in the top directory, you'll need to "blindly" do a
577 `cvs log' there (even though you won't have a local copy of the
578 file in that directory). `cvs diff' will no longer be able to
579 diff pre-move versions vs. post-move versions -- you'll have to do
580 a lot of manual gyrations with `cvs checkout' and then use `diff'.
582 * I had alphabetized the --configure options in the --help output
583 awhile back, but Shantonu added --enable-apop just under
584 --enable-pop. Put it in alphabetical order and clarified what
585 --enable-apop does vs. --enable-pop and --with-krb4. Also changed
586 --with-mts help line from "mail transport agent" to "mail
587 transport agent/service" so the 's' in "mts" doesn't seem to come
590 * Added two steps to "releasing nmh" in README.developers. After
591 making the tarball, it's a good idea to diff the tree vs. the CVS
592 tree to make sure no files got left out, and then to chown the
593 files so that they're owned by root, preventing a Trojaning attack
594 by a malicious remote user with a UID matching yours.
596 * Changed DIFFERENCES to say that RPOP is not currently supported
597 rather than implying it by saying that APOP, KPOP, and POP[3] are.
599 Sun May 07 18:16:43 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
601 * Imported NetBSD version of getpass() and made extensive
602 revisions for compatibility with programs that pipe the password
603 to stdin, such as exmh.
605 * Removed tests for system ruserpass() which sometimes gave
606 phantom positive results. Also, bext to use internal functions if
607 we ever want to change .netrc format to something else, or access
610 Sat May 06 08:28:09 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
612 * Restored lost version histories for those moved files by doing a
613 manual `mv' in the CVSROOT on mhost. CVS badly needs a `cvs mv'
614 command so that you can move files (without having physical access
615 to the CVSROOT) without losing versioning. Put MACHINES back at
616 the top level as it needs to be read before building. Fixed DIST
617 variable in {.,docs}/Makefile.in to reflect that and to add
618 missing entry for "INSTALL" file.
620 Sat May 06 13:13:07 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
622 * Re-cleaned up nmh documentation (by moving things to docs
623 subdir) and modified Makefile & configure.in to handle the change.
625 Mon Apr 17 21:28:40 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
627 * Scott Blachowicz pointed out that the configure --help output
628 for --enable-masquerade was misleading. Clarified.
630 Mon Apr 17 19:01:00 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
632 * APOP support can be compiled in to inc and msgchk using
635 * To access an APOP host, specify -apop on the command line
636 along with any -host or -user option.
638 Fri Apr 14 23:10:44 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
640 * Upped the version number to 1.0.4+dev until the next nmh release.
642 * Added a "releasing nmh" section to README.developers, while the
643 process was fresh in my mind.
645 Fri Apr 14 18:21:34 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
647 * Added new files README.developers, ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6, and
648 ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html to DIST target in Makefile.in.
650 * Released nmh-1.0.4.
652 Tue Apr 11 21:37:03 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
654 * Applied Brian Campbell <bacam@tardis.ed.ac.uk>'s mhn.defaults.sh
657 It appears that there shouldn't be quotes around the %s in the
658 iso-8859-1 charset entry; xterm passes the remaining arguments
659 to the program, quoting them means that xterm thinks they're
660 part of the program's name.
662 This %s isn't the same as the "Insert content subtype" one from
663 mhshow-show-* -- it doesn't come from MIME headers and is safe not
666 Sun Apr 09 13:03:59 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
668 * added check in fmt_compile() to handle a single-character
669 format string. fmt_compile() depends on having an array of
670 format characters with an empty item at the end. A
671 single-character format would cause programs using this
672 function to segfault because the algorithm used to decide on
673 the length of the array mistakenly created a single-item array
674 when the format string was one character. This eventually
675 caused problems when the program attempted to test item+1
678 Thu Apr 06 21:53:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
680 * Richard Coleman threw out a lot of old MH-specific files in nmh.
681 Much of the stuff, indeed, is not worth saving, but there are
682 nuggets that are very worthwhile, and should probably be added
683 back in. Most important, IMHO, are the MH change logs, as they
684 can help answer questions like "Why is this code like this?" or
685 "How long has this been broken?" or "What was this ever used for?"
687 I've added a new file to the nmh tree called
688 ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6. It's cobbled together from the
689 mh-6.8.4/papers/mh*/MHCHANGES files. I've re-ordered the entries
690 to go from newest at the top to oldest at the bottom to match the
691 ChangeLog convention. Unfortunately there are no change logs for
692 versions of MH prior to 3 in the MH tar files available at
693 <ftp://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/mh>. Also, it appears to me that there
694 are MH-6.6 changes that aren't documented in the logs.
696 I've also added ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html. This is
697 based on mh-6.8.4/papers/changes/mh-changes.ms. The nroff format
698 and its "catman"-type output are a pain to deal with, but I was
699 loath to throw away the formatting, so I converted the file to
700 HTML. The only actual markup in the body are the "<B>" and "<U>"
701 tags, and "<" and ">" instead of '<' and '>', so it's quite
702 doable to view the file in plain ASCII mode as well. Note that
703 some of the changes this file documents as having been made in
704 MH-6.8.4 may not be present in nmh -- Richard started with 6.8.3
705 and later put in certain 6.8.4 stuff.
707 Wed Apr 05 21:09:28 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
709 * Applied Eric Schnoebelen <eric@cirr.com>'s mhshowsbr.c patch
710 fixing apparent bugs in Dan Winship's new security quoting code:
712 Since upgrading, I've been getting the following errors
713 while attempting to process some MIME messages:
715 (1) Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
720 (2) line 1/10 (END)Segmentation fault (core dumped)
722 (2) appears to be due to the testing of an unset pointer in
723 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux(). (1) appears to be caused by
724 mis-quoting a filename being handed to the shell in
725 mhshowsbr.c:show_content_aux().
727 Resolving the pointer reference issue in
728 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux() turned up a similar mis-quoting
729 problem in the routine.
731 Tue Mar 28 16:17:39 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
733 * Applied Todd.Miller@courtesan.com's patch to dropsbr.c to
734 prevent core dumping on packf. Here's the note from his message:
736 Since sizeof(buffer) == sizeof(tmpbuffer) packf will dump
737 core on a file w/o a From line with a line >= BUFSIZ.
738 I noticed this because I had a junk file in my mail
741 Fri Mar 17 11:59:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
743 * wesley.craig@umich.edu did not document his previous KPOP patch,
744 so I did so, and asked him to check what I wrote. Unfortunately
745 he didn't notice my misunderstanding of his patch. I wrote that
746 if you #define POPSERVICE "kpop", inc and msgchk will use KPOP
747 exclusively, but if you leave it as "pop3", you can use Wesley's
748 new -kpop switch on a given invocation. Instead, however, -kpop
749 turned out to be necessary on every invocation, and a KPOP user
750 complained. Applied Wesley's new patch, which makes things work
751 like I thought his original patch did. After that, did one more
752 clarifying pass to the documentation in inc.man and msgchk.man.
754 Wed Mar 15 18:45:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
756 * When I fixed the long-standing makedir() bugs in January, I had
757 the code call strtoul(..., 0), which I believed to be safe as all
758 modes specified as ASCII constants in the nmh code started with a
759 leading zero (signifying octal), which I did as it would work if
760 internal constants were ever changed to hex. Unfortunately I was
761 unaware of the "Folder-Protect:" .mh_profile entry, which
762 mh-profile.man documents as an octal-only constant, with no
763 leading zero required. I've changed the strtoul() call to an
764 atooi() call and removed the misleading leading zeroes on the
765 ASCII octal constants in the code and man pages. Also changed the
766 "Folder-Protect:" example in the man page to something more
767 interesting than a duplication of the default.
769 * When I added my --enable-masquerade option, you'll note that I
770 didn't make it --enable-nmh-masquerade. I find the --enable-nmh-*
771 options too wordy and I'm not sure why Richard went that route.
772 I've renamed them to just --enable-*, but the old versions will
773 still work as well (they just aren't advertised).
775 * Added a line to the "nmh configuration" output saying whether
778 * Added a new README.developers file. From the file:
780 This file is intended to provide a few tips for anyone doing
781 development on nmh. Developers who learn things "the hard
782 way" about the nmh codebase (as opposed to local info best
783 encoded in a comment) are encouraged to share their wisdom
786 Currently the topics are "autoconf files" and "directory structure".
788 Tue Mar 14 12:41:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
790 * Applied, after some finessing,
791 Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s --with-smtpservers patch:
793 Here's a patch that allows you to add
795 --with-smtpservers=<some.host.name>
797 to the ./configure command line to set the "servers: " line in
798 etc/mts.conf. Around here, we use "mailhost" so that all
799 machines in the current domain just talk to a central machine
800 and nothing else runs an MTA. Now, I can use
802 --with-smtpservers=mailhost
804 instead of having to remember to fix this by hand (and often
805 forgetting to do so!).
807 * Inspired by Simon's patch, added an --enable-masquerade option
808 to configure. It will set the "masquerade:" line of mts.conf.
809 You may specify a subset of the three types of masquerading, like
810 --enable-masquerade="draft_from mmailid", or leave off explicit
811 arguments to enable all three types.
813 * Alphabetized the --enable and --with options in configure.in and
814 INSTALL and added documentation of the two new options to the latter.
816 * Added new dependency for mts.conf: Makefile. If this isn't
817 done, then when you reconfigure nmh with new values for
818 --enable-masquerade or --with-smtpservers, you'll fail to get an
819 updated copy of mts.conf.
821 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtimep.lex patch:
823 It seems that some MUA's didn't handle y2k very well - ELM
824 seems to be one of them, and Ultrix's DXmail (based on MH!).
825 I've got a few emails this month that look like:
827 575 Jan 00 Xxxxxx Xxxx 3603 ...
829 22+ Jan 00 Xxx Xxxxx 1771 ...
831 The first has "15 Jan 100" as the date and the second has
832 "19 Jan 00" as the date. The following works around this so
833 that scan, show, sortm, etc work ok.
835 I put Simon's patch under the control of a new #define called
836 FIX_NON_Y2K_COMPLIANT_MUA_DATES. There's some commentary in
837 acconfig.h about when you might not want to #define it.
839 * Created new dtimep.c-lexed with Simon's change using dtimep.lex
840 lexed on Solaris 2.6. Added missing dependency in
841 zotnet/tws/Makefile.in for dtimep.c: dtimep.c-lexed.
843 * Added scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD format files.
845 Mon Mar 13 21:32:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
847 * Applied Sullivan N. Beck <sbeck@cise.ufl.edu>'s mhshow-suffix patch:
849 With the patch below, you can add lines like:
851 mhshow-suffix-application/msword: .doc
852 mhshow-suffix-application/PostScript: .ps
854 to the mhn.defaults file to append the given suffix to a
855 scratch file. This allows applications which require a
856 certain suffix to run properly.
858 * Removed -force_html from lynx entry in mhn.defaults.sh (I
859 believe older versions of lynx lack that option) and added
860 "mhshow-suffix-text/html: .html".
862 * Modified username_extension masquerading to only use the
863 extended address on generated [Resent-]From: lines and SMTP
864 envelope From:. With Neil's original implementation, nmh's global
865 idea of the username was changed, which would result in inc lying
866 and saying you had no new mail because it was looking for a
867 mailbox called, for instance, "dan-nmh" (where username was "dan"
868 and $USERNAME_EXTENSION was "-nmh").
870 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtime.c patch:
872 There's a wrap-around problem that affects the implementation
873 of Zeller's congruence in dtime.c. This causes the day-of-week
874 calculations to fail for dates after Feb 29, 2000 (probably up
875 until some year far in the future).
877 Mon Mar 06 12:20:20 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
879 * Applied Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s msh.c patch:
881 I finally tracked down the problem in msh that was causing
882 errors whenever I tried to examine a 'mmdf' style mailbox.
884 It turns out that not enough memory was being allocated with
885 calloc(), causing memory pointers to be overwritten and
888 Fri Mar 03 16:07:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
890 * Changed the new "plussed_user" option to mts.conf's
891 "masquerade:" to "username_extension" after getting feedback from
892 qmail users, who use '-' as a separator rather than '+'. Removed
893 checking of $USERPLUS variable. Now check $USERNAME_EXTENSION,
894 which needs to include the appropriate separator for your MTA
895 ('-', '+', or whatever) as its first character.
897 Thu Mar 02 23:04:30 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
899 * Added a new "boolean" type to mh.h and TRUE and FALSE constants.
901 * Added a note to DIFFERENCES stating that it's out-of-date
902 (Richard was the last one to update it) and that we should
903 consider only documenting incompatibilities with MH there.
905 * Implemented (and documented) a third kind of username
906 masquerading: "plussed user" masquerading. This one was suggested
907 by Neil Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>. It's based on sendmail's
908 "plussed user" feature, where mail sent to <user>+<string> will be
909 delivered to <user>. When it's enabled, it's controlled by the
910 $USERPLUS environment variable. How is it enabled? Well, that
913 * Renamed the "mmailid:" setting in mts.conf to "masquerade:", and
914 changed it so that rather than being a boolean, it can be set to
915 any combination of the three values "draft_from", "mmailid", and
916 "plussed_user". Thus it is now possible to enable the three types
917 of masquerading individually.
919 * Fixed a bug with "mmailid" masquerading (dating back to MH?)
920 where if it was turned on, ','s would no longer be considered
921 GECOS field delimiters.
923 Wed Mar 01 23:30:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
925 * Changed the GECOS-field '&' translation behavior to be
926 controlled by the BSD42 #define rather than GCOS_HACK, since it's
927 apparently always appropriate on OSes where BSD42 is #defined, and
928 never appropriate on any other OSes. Thanks to Kimmo Suominen for
929 responding to my "What is this code here for?" comment in mts.c
930 and explaining the feature.
932 Mon Feb 28 21:50:29 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
934 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3+dev (ideally this should be
935 done by whoever makes a release tar file, immediately after doing
938 * Applied Paul Fox <pgf-spam@foxharp.boston.ma.us>'s scansbr.c
939 patch, posted to comp.mail.mh, which he says prevents loss of mail
940 when inc'ing into a full filesystem.
942 * Changed "echo > stamp-h.in" in Makefile.in to "date > stamp-h.in"
943 so that stamp-h.in will be different each time configure.in and
944 related files are changed, making it easier to check it in (which
945 is necessary to prevent unnecessary autoconf calls).
947 * My declaration of initgroups() in slocal.c to eliminate the "no
948 prototype" warning wasn't portable (FreeBSD 3.[23] choked). Now
949 use AC_EGREP_HEADER to see where initgroups() is declared, if
952 Sun Feb 20 12:17:15 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
954 * Fix security hole in mhshowsbr.c which allowed untrusted shell
957 * Released nmh 1.0.3.
959 Thu Feb 10 10:54:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
961 * Oops. %-escapes on mhstore lines in mhn.defaults.sh should not
962 be surrounded by single quotes, as a shell is not spawned when
963 just saving files, and the filenames will end up with literal
964 quotes embedded in them.
966 Fri Feb 04 12:29:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
968 * Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
969 got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
970 the -help output. One theory is that they were making reference
971 to the fact that clearly you know about the -help option since
972 you're currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea
973 to overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
974 supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
977 The other theory is that because you can say something like
978 "mhstore -" and get "mhstore: - ambiguous. It matches" followed
979 by the same list of switches you get with -help, they were saying
980 you can "sorta" abbreviate "-help" as "-". You don't get the
981 "Usage:" string, though, so it's not really the same thing.
983 Thu Feb 03 17:52:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
985 * Applied wesley.craig@umich.edu's KPOP patches. According to him:
987 The following patch fixes a problem with requesting a
988 service key for a machine that has multiple 'A' records. It
989 also makes "-kpop" a command line option, for users who
990 would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".
992 Did no testing of the new features, as I don't have access to a
995 * Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
997 * Modified INSTALL and config.h.in to reflect the new -kpop feature.
999 Fri Jan 28 17:39:24 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1001 * All %-escapes in mhn.defaults that actually expand to something
1002 should be surrounded by single quotes. Added quotes to the ones
1003 in mhn.defaults.sh that were missing them.
1005 * Added check for lynx to write mhshow-show-text/html line in
1008 Thu Jan 27 12:22:25 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1010 * makedir() had multiple bugs dating back to MH. An octal
1011 constant was apparently being interpreted as decimal, resulting in
1012 directories with no user read or execute permissions, making
1013 nested directory creation fail. And there wasn't even an
1014 _attempt_ to set desired permissions (e.g. from "Folder-Protect:"
1015 in .mh_profile) on the outer directories of a nested directory.
1017 * A second `make install' would always fail because the check for
1018 whether mh_profile.5 existed was written incorrectly.
1020 Wed Jan 26 02:22:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1022 * Added documentation on both types of masquerading to post's man
1025 Tue Jan 25 22:58:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1027 * Doug's portability fix of my setgid inc autodetection had a
1028 caching bug -- if you re-ran configure, uip/Makefile would be
1029 corrupted, and installation would bomb out on OSes where inc needs
1032 * Implemented a new kind of email address masquerading. Usually,
1033 when a user writes a custom "From:" header in a draft, nmh uses it
1034 rather than generating one. However, the user's true address is
1035 used in the SMTP envelope "From:" and is revealed in the "Sender:"
1036 header. Now, when mmailid is set to non-zero, the envelope
1037 "From:" uses the address specified in the draft "From:" header,
1038 and there is no "Sender:" header. This is useful when sending on
1039 behalf of a remote POP3 account or when remote mail robots
1040 incorrectly use the envelope "From:" in preference to the body
1041 "From:". This processing has only been implemented for post, not
1042 for the undocumented spost (which was already missing some "From:"
1043 processing that post has).
1045 Mon Jan 24 22:26:06 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1047 * Got rid of the rest of the gcc -Wall warnings that I didn't have
1048 time for on 1999-07-15 (and, it would seem, some new ones people
1049 introduced since then). The primary ones were the warnings that
1050 default prototypes were being used for [v]snprintf() and
1051 str[n]casecmp(). As of right now, there are _no_ compilation
1052 warnings except on dtimep.c-lexed (at least under AIX 4.1.5 and
1055 Sun Jan 2 23:42:18 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1057 * Move mhtest from bindir to libdir.
1059 * Move sendfiles from libdir to bindir.
1061 * Updated sendfiles manpage to reflect this change.
1063 * Added documentation for -build and -file switches to repl and
1064 forw manpages (patch from Peter Maydell).
1066 * Fixed interaction between specifying -cc in profile and -group on
1069 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1071 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
1072 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
1073 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
1076 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1078 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
1079 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
1080 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
1081 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
1082 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
1083 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).
1085 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1087 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
1089 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1091 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
1092 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
1093 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
1094 caught again. This works for now.
1096 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
1098 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1100 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
1101 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
1103 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1105 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
1106 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
1108 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
1110 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
1112 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1114 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
1115 changes. Both need more cleanup.
1117 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1119 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
1120 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
1121 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
1122 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
1123 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
1126 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1128 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
1129 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
1130 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
1132 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
1133 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
1136 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1138 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
1139 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
1140 to a directory on another device with more free space.
1142 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1144 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
1145 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
1147 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1149 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
1152 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
1153 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
1155 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
1156 macros, regardless of platform.
1158 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
1159 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1161 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
1162 with x-conversions=gzip.
1164 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1166 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
1169 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
1170 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
1171 implicit definition of ioctl().
1173 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
1174 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
1175 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
1176 want to mess with them.
1178 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1180 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
1181 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
1183 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
1184 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
1186 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
1187 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
1188 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
1190 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
1191 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
1192 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
1194 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
1195 function initgroups.
1197 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
1200 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
1201 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
1204 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
1205 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
1208 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
1209 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
1213 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1215 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
1216 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
1217 preventing compilation on at least linux.
1219 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
1220 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
1222 Thu Sep 09 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1224 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
1226 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
1227 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
1228 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
1229 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
1231 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
1232 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
1234 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1236 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
1238 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1240 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
1241 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
1243 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1245 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
1246 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
1248 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
1249 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
1250 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
1251 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
1253 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
1254 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
1256 Sat Jun 09 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1258 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
1259 substitute it for mktemp if available.
1261 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1263 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
1264 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
1267 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
1269 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
1271 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
1273 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
1274 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
1276 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
1277 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
1278 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
1280 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
1281 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
1282 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
1284 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
1285 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
1286 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1288 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
1289 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
1292 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
1293 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1295 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
1296 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1298 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
1299 <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1301 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
1302 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
1303 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1305 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
1306 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1308 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
1309 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
1310 <elleron@servtech.com>.
1312 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
1313 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
1316 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
1317 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
1319 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
1320 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
1321 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
1322 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
1324 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
1325 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
1327 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1331 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
1332 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
1333 would not be changed.
1335 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
1336 one from the Apache web server.
1338 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
1339 (this should have been done a long time ago).
1341 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
1342 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
1343 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
1345 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
1347 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
1349 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
1350 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
1353 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
1354 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
1355 removes a bad race condition.
1357 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
1360 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
1361 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
1362 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
1364 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
1365 sequence information.
1367 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
1368 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
1370 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
1373 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
1376 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
1378 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
1379 interpret 034 as octal.
1381 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
1383 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
1384 mhstore, and mhbuild.
1386 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
1387 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
1389 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
1390 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
1392 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
1393 in the c_cefile structure when building.
1395 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
1396 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
1398 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
1399 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
1400 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
1402 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
1403 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
1404 and mhshow. Updated man pages
1406 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
1408 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
1410 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
1411 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
1414 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
1416 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
1417 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
1419 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
1420 header field information.
1422 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
1423 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
1425 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
1426 values when parsing a content.
1428 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
1429 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
1431 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
1432 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
1434 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
1435 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1437 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
1438 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
1440 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
1442 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
1444 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
1446 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
1448 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
1449 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
1452 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
1453 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
1455 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
1456 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
1457 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
1458 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
1459 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
1460 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
1463 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1465 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
1466 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
1467 buffer length checks for this parameter.
1469 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
1470 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
1472 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1474 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
1475 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
1476 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
1477 of the limits on the length of command lines.
1479 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
1480 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
1483 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
1484 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
1485 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
1486 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
1489 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1491 * Released nmh-0.27.
1493 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
1494 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
1496 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
1497 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
1498 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
1499 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
1502 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
1503 mhbuild returns an error.
1505 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
1506 rename the draft file.
1508 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
1509 use a global variable.
1511 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
1512 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
1514 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
1515 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
1517 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
1518 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
1519 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
1521 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
1522 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
1524 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
1525 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
1528 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
1529 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
1532 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
1533 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
1535 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
1536 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
1537 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
1539 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
1540 to new function output_content_folder.
1542 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
1543 new function output_content_file.
1545 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
1546 to new function parse_format_string.
1548 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
1549 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
1550 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
1551 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
1553 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
1554 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
1555 message/external file from ftp.
1557 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
1558 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
1559 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
1561 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
1562 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
1565 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
1568 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
1569 new file mhstoresbr.c
1571 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
1574 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
1575 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
1577 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
1578 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
1580 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
1581 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
1582 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
1584 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
1586 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
1588 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
1589 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
1592 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
1593 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
1595 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
1598 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
1600 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1602 * Released nmh-0.26.
1604 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
1605 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
1606 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
1607 is still the same (dashstuffing).
1609 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
1610 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
1611 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
1612 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
1613 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
1615 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
1616 But it is not on by default.
1618 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
1619 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
1621 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
1623 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
1625 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
1627 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
1629 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
1630 number of the "cur" message when packing.
1632 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1634 * Released nmh-0.25.
1636 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
1637 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
1638 uses the original name of the library.
1640 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
1641 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
1644 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
1645 list_content and list_debug.
1647 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
1649 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
1650 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.
1652 1998-02-27 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1654 * Released nmh-0.24.
1656 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
1658 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
1659 are given, that order doesn't matter.

1668 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
1670 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
1671 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan
1672 content, decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary
1673 string). I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
1675 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
1676 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
1679 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
1681 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
1683 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
1685 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
1686 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
1688 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
1689 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.
1691 * Add note to MACHINES file that on Linux, configure
1692 doesn't find the functions sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.

1716 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
1717 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
1719 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
1721 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
1722 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
1723 entry point for parsing MIME files.
1725 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
1726 source message on the standard input.
1728 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
1730 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
1731 rather than -rfc934mode.

1734 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
1737 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
1738 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).

1743 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1745 * Released nmh-0.21.
1747 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
1748 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.
1750 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what transfer
1753 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what character set
1754 to use for text contents.
1756 * Removed old hpux specific code from zotnet/tws/lexstring.c
1758 1998-02-02 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1760 * Released nmh-0.21-pre2.
1762 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
1764 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
1765 header fields as per RFC-2047.
1767 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
1768 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
1769 spaces between encoded word are.
1771 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
1773 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
1774 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
1776 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
1777 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
1778 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
1780 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
1782 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
1783 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
1785 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.
1787 * Added support for %(decode) to fmtdump.c.
1789 * check_charset() now accepts US-ASCII as a subset of any
1790 ISO-8859-X character set.
1792 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
1795 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
1796 permissions, not write permissions.
1798 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
1799 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
1801 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
1804 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1806 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
1808 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
1809 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
1811 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
1812 message contains valid character set.
1814 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
1815 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
1817 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
1818 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
1820 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
1821 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
1822 between an encoded word and normal text.
1824 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
1825 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
1827 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
1828 as a RFC-2047 header field.
1830 * The command install-mh now recognizes the switches -version
1833 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
1834 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
1837 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
1838 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
1840 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
1841 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
1843 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
1845 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1847 * Released nmh-0.20.
1849 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
1851 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.
1853 * Changed the default format file for mhl (mhl.format) to
1854 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
1855 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
1857 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
1858 and the To: line was missing.
1860 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
1862 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1864 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
1866 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
1867 watch the POP transaction.
1869 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
1870 first, and use it if available.
1872 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
1873 first, and use it if available.
1875 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1877 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
1879 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
1880 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
1881 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
1884 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
1885 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
1886 returns the state FLDPLUS.
1888 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
1889 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
1892 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
1894 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
1895 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
1897 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
1899 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
1900 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
1902 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
1903 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
1904 message to which you are replying.
1906 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
1907 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
1908 making group replies.
1910 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
1912 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1914 * Released nmh-0.19.
1916 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
1917 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
1919 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
1920 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
1921 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
1922 to the end of the man page.
1924 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
1925 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
1926 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
1927 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
1928 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
1929 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
1931 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
1934 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
1935 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
1936 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
1938 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
1939 the next available number above the message number you wish
1942 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
1943 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
1945 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
1946 file sbr/seq_print.c
1948 * flist will now update the current folder.
1950 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
1951 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
1952 but now undocumented.
1954 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
1957 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
1958 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
1960 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
1962 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
1963 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
1965 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1967 * Released nmh-0.18.
1969 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
1970 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
1971 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
1973 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
1974 retains the public/private status of sequences.
1976 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
1977 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
1978 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
1979 previous public/private status.
1981 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
1984 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
1987 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
1988 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
1989 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
1991 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
1992 take option to determine whether it should get current
1993 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
1994 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
1996 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
1998 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
1999 wait for stopped processes.
2001 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
2002 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
2004 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2006 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
2008 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
2009 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
2011 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
2012 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
2014 * Change the way that memory for message status is
2015 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
2016 the folder/message structure. This required changing
2017 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
2019 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
2022 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
2025 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
2027 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
2028 the debugging output.
2030 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
2031 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
2033 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2035 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
2037 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
2038 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
2040 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
2042 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
2043 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
2044 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
2045 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
2046 in the given sequence.
2048 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
2049 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
2050 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
2051 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
2052 subdirectories of a given directory.
2054 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
2055 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
2056 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
2058 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
2059 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
2061 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
2063 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
2066 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
2067 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
2068 fields are now calculated at runtime.
2070 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
2071 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
2072 are calculated at runtime.
2074 Sun Nov 30 19:14:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2076 * Released nmh-0.18-pre2.
2078 * Add paragraph to man page for install-mh and to INSTALL file
2079 about checking for global mh.profile.
2081 * Renamed m_find() to context_find().
2082 Renamed m_replace() to context_replace().
2083 Renamed m_delete() to context_del().
2084 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
2085 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
2086 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
2088 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
2089 adding message to folder itself.
2091 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
2092 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
2093 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
2096 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
2097 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
2100 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
2101 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
2102 is the same as the direct smtp code).
2104 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
2105 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
2107 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
2108 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
2109 code to use it yet).
2111 Thu Nov 13 18:42:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2113 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.
2115 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never
2116 called with a value larger than 30 mintues.
2118 * Fixed race condition in rmm and refile, so that
2119 context is updated before external rmmproc is called.
2121 * Removed all the OVERHEAD code.
2123 * Move code to add message to folder from refile.c
2126 Fri Jul 25 19:39:29 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2128 * Did some rearranging of the internals of inc.c.
2130 * Make -inplace the default for anno, forw, dist, and repl.
2132 * Changed --enable-smtp to --with-mts={smtp,sendmail}
2134 * Created new directory mts/sendmail for direct sendmail
2135 interface (although it currently still uses SMTP).
2137 * Removed all the TMA (trusted mail agent) code
2139 * Removed all the TTYD (terminal access daemon) code
2141 * Removed all the MF (uucp filtering) code.
2143 * Removed all the code for BERK.
2145 * Removed all the code for stand-alone delivery (MHMTS).
2147 * Split the file mts/sendmail/smail.c into sendmail.c and
2148 smtp.c. Changed the name of the directory to mts/smtp.
2150 * Changed autoconf to use @sysconfdir@ for location of
2151 configuration files.
2153 * Changed #define in mhn.c from FTP to BUILTIN_FTP.
2155 Mon Jul 21 03:22:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2157 * Released nmh-0.17.
2159 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
2161 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
2162 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
2164 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
2167 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
2168 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
2170 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
2171 number of refiled message.
2173 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
2175 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
2176 for return value of wait().
2178 * Change configure to also check /bin for "more".
2180 Sat Jul 12 00:02:23 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2182 * Released nmh-0.16.
2184 Mon Jun 23 20:13:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2186 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
2188 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
2189 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
2190 deal with binary messages, yet).
2192 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
2194 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
2196 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
2197 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
2198 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
2199 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
2200 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
2201 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
2203 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
2204 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
2206 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
2207 From MH-6.8.4 patch.
2209 * Fix double free of ctinfo in user_content when using
2210 #forw with single message. From John MacMillan (and
2213 * Changed -mhnproc switch for show, to -showmimeproc.
2215 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".
2217 * Added "mime" option to "whatnow", which calls the program
2218 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
2221 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
2224 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
2226 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
2227 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
2228 which used unsigned chars by default.
2230 Sat Jun 21 01:21:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2232 * Released nmh-0.15.
2234 * Added new form "scan.unseen" to distribution. It marks messages
2235 which are in any sequence in Unseen-Sequence.
2237 * Do some rearranging of date/time code in zotnet/tws/dtime.c
2239 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
2241 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
2244 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
2245 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
2246 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
2248 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
2249 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
2251 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
2253 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
2254 they conflict with defines on AIX.
2256 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
2257 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
2258 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
2259 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
2261 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
2262 and put in own subroutine.
2264 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
2265 and put in own subroutine.
2267 * Moved code to remove messages from folder into own
2268 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and
2269 refile.c to use new routine.
2271 Fri May 16 06:09:31 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2273 * Renamed m_seqok to seq_nameok.
2275 * Changed m_setunseen, msh, mshcmds, flist, and scan to use
2278 * Changed m_seqflag to return the number of a sequence rather
2279 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
2280 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
2282 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
2285 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before
2286 adding message to sequence.
2288 * Renamed function m_setvis to m_setunseen, and renamed
2289 corresponding file in sbr.
2291 * Renamed function m_setseq to m_setprev, and renamed corresponding
2294 * Changed mark.c and pick.c to use m_seqaddsel and m_seqdelsel.
2296 * Added new function m_seqdelsel to m_seqdel.c, which deletes
2297 all selected messages from a sequence.
2299 * Added new function m_seqaddsel to m_seqadd.c, which adds all
2300 selected messages to a sequence.
2302 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,
2305 Thu May 15 00:53:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2307 * Renamed function pack_folder to m_packfolder, and moved it

2396 will suppress the display of the message header.
2398 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
2400 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c

2417 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
2419 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
2420 folder/message structure when done with folder.
2422 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is

2485 * Released nmh-0.08.
2487 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
2488 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of

2499 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
2500 rather than mmdf format.
2502 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
2503 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
2504 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
2505 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.

2509 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2511 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
2514 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2515 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2516 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
2518 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2519 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to

2522 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2524 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
2525 can still easily change this in config.h).
2527 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
2528 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
2529 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
2531 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2533 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather

2548 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
2550 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
2551 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
2554 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
2555 built-in FTP client in mhn.

2568 * Released nmh-0.06.
2570 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
2571 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
2573 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
2574 many such machines around anymore.
2576 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
2577 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
2579 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
2580 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
2582 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2584 * Check lex generated file in zotnet/tws and use
2585 pre-generated version if necessary.
2587 * Released nmh-0.05.
2589 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
2590 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
2591 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
2592 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
2594 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
2595 be linked in one pass.
2597 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2599 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
2600 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
2602 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2604 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
2606 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2608 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
2609 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
2610 become the current folder.
2612 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2614 * Released nmh-0.04.

2619 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2621 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
2622 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
2623 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
2625 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2627 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
2628 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
2630 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2632 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
2633 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
2636 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
2637 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
2639 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2641 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
2642 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
2643 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
2644 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
2645 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
2646 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
2648 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2650 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
2651 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
2653 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
2654 a file (currently need to specify full path).
2656 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2658 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
2659 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
2661 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2663 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
2664 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
2665 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
2667 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2669 * Released nmh-0.03.
2671 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
2672 .mh_sequence file existed.
2674 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
2675 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
2677 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
2678 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
2681 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2683 * Changed flist option -unseen to -[no]all. Cleaned up
2686 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2688 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
2689 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
2690 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
2692 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2694 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
2695 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
2696 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
2698 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2700 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL
2701 and allocate its own buffer. Borrowed from zsh.
2703 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
2705 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2707 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
2708 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
2709 directory from where the source code is located.
2711 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2713 * Released nmh-0.02.

2733 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
2734 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
2735 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
2736 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
2737 rather than in script.
2739 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2741 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
2743 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with
2744 macro defined on Solaris.

2748 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
2749 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
2751 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
2752 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
2753 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
2754 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
2757 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2759 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
2760 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.
2762 * Fixed configure test so that termcap variable ospeed is
2765 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2767 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
2769 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included

2774 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
2775 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
2777 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2779 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
2780 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
2781 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
2782 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
2783 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
2784 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
2786 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2788 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
2790 * Released nmh-0.01.
2792 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
2793 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
2794 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
2797 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2799 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
2802 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2804 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
2805 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
2807 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2809 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
2810 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
2811 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
2812 script to find_program.
2814 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2816 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
2817 speed up -recurse option.
2819 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
2820 yet, but it compiles :-)
2822 * Changed default location for install to
2823 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
2824 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
2825 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
2828 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
2829 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
2830 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
