1 2008-10-23 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
3 * h/mh.h: raised NAMESZ from 128 to 999. RFC 2822 limits line
4 lengths to 998 characters, so a header name can be at most that long.
5 m_getfld limits header names to 2 less than NAMESZ, which is fine,
6 because header names must be followed by a colon. Add one for
9 2008-10-23 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
11 * sbr/m_getfld.c: in warning message, use NAMESZ-2 instead of
12 NAMESZ-1 bytes because the message says "exceeds", not
13 "is greater than or equal to".
15 2008-10-23 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
17 * docs/MAIL.FILTERING: added note on removing procmail -f or
18 -r options to try to suppress generation of a "From " line on
21 2008-08-14 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
23 * test/setup-test: Don't run autogen.sh unless needed. Build in a
24 blddir under the temporary directory so as not to interfere with
25 whatever the developer may be doing in the source directory.
26 If the temporary directory already exists, rebuild and install it.
28 2008-08-13 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
30 * sbr/ambigsw.c: Send print_sw output to stderr. This avoids
31 strange problems with scan `pick -bogus`, not to mention being
34 * sbr/getans.c, sbr/print_help.c, uip/msh.c: Send print_sw output
37 * h/prototypes.h, sbr/print_sw.c (print_sw): Add FILE * argument
38 and send output there rather than to stdout.
40 * test/tests/pick/test-stderr: Add test that error messages don't
41 end up going to stdout.
43 2008-08-13 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
45 * uip/pick.c: Print matching messages immediately, instead of
46 waiting until the very end to print anything.
47 Ensure valid sequence name as soon as we parse it from command,
48 instead of searching the messages first.
50 2008-08-13 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
52 * uip/Makefile.in, uip/popi.c: Remove popi.c, which has been dead
53 since PatchSet 257 (2000/06/12 11:07:34 UTC).
55 2008-08-13 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
57 * h/mhparse.h: Move interfaces also used by mhbuildsbr.c here
60 * uip/Makefile.in (mhbuild): Build with mhparse.o.
62 * uip/mhbuildsbr.c: Drop the duplication of mhparse.c.
64 * uip/mhbuild.c, uip/mhlist.c, uip/mhn.c, uip/mhshow.c,
65 uip/mhstore.c, uip/mhtest.c: Drop check swdeclaration, which is
68 * uip/mhparse.c: Move some declarations to mhparse.h, and remove
69 'static' from the definitions here.
70 (get_ctinfo): Take magic mhbuild support from mhbuildsbr.c's copy,
72 (incl_name_value, extract_name_value): Move from mhbuildsbr.c to
73 support get_ctinfo change).
74 (get_content, open7Bit): Add Content-Disposition support, added to
75 mhbuildsbr.c's copy in mhbuildsbr.c r1.12 (PatchSet 549).
76 (InitText): Default to CHARSET_UNSPECIFIED instead of "US-ASCII",
77 as mhbuildsbr.c's copy did. Explain termproc.
78 (openBase64, openQuoted, open7Bit): Fix comment from r1.5:
79 suffixes, not prefixes.
80 (openMail): Explain showproc.
82 * test/tests/mhshow/test-cte-binary: Add test for
83 Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary (Debian #136976).
85 * test/tests/mhbuild/test-forw: Add an mhbuild test, testing forw
86 with and without RFC-934 mode. More mhbuild tests would be nice.
88 2008-08-13 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
90 * test/tests/bad-input/test-header: Add test for it.
92 * sbr/m_getfld.c: If we reach the end of the line without finding
93 a ':' when parsing a header field, treat that line as the
94 beginning of the body rather than blowing up. These messages are
95 usually spam, but it's nice to be able to at least scan them.
97 2008-08-12 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
99 * test/tests/mhshow/test-qp: Test various valid and invalid
102 * uip/mhparse.c (openQuoted): Simplify the decode-or-show for loop by
103 peeking ahead to the next byte(s) when encountering '=', and just let
104 invalid escape sequences through as literals (fixes bug #15245).
106 2008-08-12 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
108 * autogen.sh (new file): add script for running the GNU
109 autotools in the right order
110 * INSTALL: mention that you need to run autogen.sh if you
112 * docs/README.developers: mention autogen.sh rather than
113 suggesting running autoheader and autoconf by hand.
114 * test/setup-test: run autotools via autogen.sh
116 2008-08-08 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
118 * sbr/discard.c, sbr/m_getfld.c, uip/scansbr.c: Add support for
119 DragonFlyBSD stdio (from NetBSD pkgsrc).
121 2008-08-05 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
123 * uip/folder.c: chdir(nmhdir) in main rather than in dodir, which
124 is called many times. Drop the chdir in get_folder_info, which
125 served no purpose at all. If struct stat has d_type (BSD), use
126 that to skip processing (strcmp, stat, and so on) of message
127 files, mostly undoing the slow-down from the last change.
129 * configure.in: Call CHECK_TYPE_STRUCT_DIRENT_D_TYPE.
131 * aclocal.m4: Add CHECK_TYPE_STRUCT_DIRENT_D_TYPE from
134 2008-08-04 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
136 * uip/folder.c: Simplify dodir/addir/addfold. Dump hacky
137 over-optimization in addir that tried to avoid readdir after all
138 child directories had been read; this was also trying to support
139 symlinks to directories, but would have been failing (because
140 nlink may have gone to 0 with symlinks to directories remaining)
141 had the lstat usage been correct (lstat doesn't fail for normal
142 directories; should have used S_ISLNK).
144 2008-08-03 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
146 * test/setup-test: use 'set -e' so we stop on compile failure.
147 Configure --enable-debug for convenience in debugging.
149 * uip/whatnowsbr.c: bug #23319: rework the way we handle the working
150 directory when invoking the user's shell, so that we don't have
151 issues when the cwd contains a space or shell special character.
152 * test/tests/whatnow/test-attach-detach, test/tests/whatnow/test-cd,
153 test/tests/whatnow/test-ls: test cases for this.
155 * sbr/fmt_compile.c: add 'do { ... } while (0)' wrappers
156 to various multi-statement macros to avoid nasty surprises
157 if the macros are used in if() clauses.
159 * bug #23436: man/scan.man, man/forw.man, man/inc.man,
160 man/mh-chart.man, man/mhmail.man, man/mhshow.man,
161 man/mhstore.man, man/msgchk.man, man/packf.man, man/scan.man:
162 fix minor syntax errors groff warns about.
163 * test/runtest, test/README: allow test cases to report
164 that they have been SKIPped as well as PASS/FAIL
165 * test/tests/manpages/test-manpages - new test which runs groff
166 on the manpages and checks that there are no warnings.
167 * test/runalltests: ignore editor backup files
169 2008-08-03 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
171 * etc/replcomps, etc/replgroupcomps: Trim trailing whitespace from
174 2008-08-03 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
176 * sbr/fmt_compile.c: when doing an if-test on the result
177 of a function which returns a string result, check whether
178 the string is non-empty (as the documentation says we do).
179 Previously we were always testing the integer 'value'. Bug
180 spotted by Eric Gillespie.
181 * test/tests/repl/test-if-str: test case for this bug
183 2008-07-24 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
185 * test/setup-test: Run 'make clean' before building
187 2008-07-24 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
189 * test/runtest: cat test-temp-dir only once. Destroy and create
190 test Mail hierarchy here, so each test has its own independent
193 * test/setup-test: Drop needless pushd/popd, which don't exist in
194 sh anyway. Don't use aclocal, which is part of automake.
195 Don't create Mail hierarchy here (see test/runtest).
197 * test/tests/folder/test-create, tests/folder/test-total: Drop
200 * tests/pick/test-pick: Remove failing no-op test.
202 * test/tests/scan/test-scan: Write expected and actual output to
203 files and diff them. This way, if the output differs, diff
204 provides the FAILing exit code and shows the differences.
206 2008-06-12 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
207 * man/repl.man, etc/mhl.reply:
208 Add an attribution line when replying to messages.
210 2008-06-02 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
212 * h/mh.h, h/prototypes.h, sbr/done.c, uip/inc.c,
213 uip/mhbuild.c, uip/mhlist.c, uip/mhn.c, uip/mhshow.c,
214 uip/mhstore.c, uip/mhtest.c, uip/packf.c, uip/pick.c,
215 uip/rcvdist.c, uip/rcvstore.c, uip/sendsbr.c: when
216 building on gcc, use the noreturn attribute on various
217 functions (should improve code and avoid some spurious
218 'uninitialized variable' warnings).
220 2008-06-01 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
222 * docs/README.developers: update the bits about doing a
223 release announcement, now I've actually done one.
225 2008-05-22 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
227 * uip/scansbr.c: don't use MB_CUR_MAX if we aren't compiled
228 with multibyte support.
230 * uip/whatnowsbr.c: factor out common code for writing ls
231 shell command, and make it do more sensible buffer length
232 checks. Also avoid relying on the return value of sprintf(),
233 as some old systems don't return number of characters written.
235 2008-05-21 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
237 * sbr/utils.c (mh_xrealloc): don't assume realloc() can
238 handle NULL pointers; some non-POSIX realloc()s can't.
240 * sbr/dtimep.lex: add some table size declarations for the
241 benefit of elderly lexes with small defaults.
243 2008-05-18 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
245 * sbr/addrsbr.c: removed "err" from conditional, because gcc
246 correctly warned that it would always evaluate as true. It's
247 the address of a static array.
249 2008-05-16 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
251 * sbr/Makefile.in, config/Makefile.in: Don't use $< in target rules
252 in makefiles, as POSIX says it's only defined in inference rules.
254 2008-05-13 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
256 * configure.in, INSTALL: if --enable-masquerade is not
257 specified to configure, enable all supported masquerade forms.
258 This allows users to masquerade with the default
259 configuration. That seems to be more worthwhile now than
260 trying to prevent users from using it, especially with
261 single-user installations or those where a user can edit
264 2008-05-04 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
266 * bug #23167: sbr/ruserpass.c (ruserpass): make bad permissions
267 on .netrc be an instantly fatal error. Previously we returned
268 an error value; however, no caller was checking it. So now
269 ruserpass() has a void return type.
271 * bug #23163: various minor fixes for the benefit of
272 older Unixes (specifically SunOS 4):
273 reintroduce strerror() substitute implementation
274 provide memmove() substitute implementation
276 * bug #23163: fix accidentally broken 'build outside
277 source directory' feature
279 * bug #23162: sbr/dtime.c: fix stray HAVE_TM_GMTOFF that
280 wasn't updated to the new macro name.
282 2008-04-30 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
284 * mts/smtp/smtp.c: provide a callback for SASL_CB_AUTHNAME
285 (fixes issue with SASL sending the wrong username in some
286 circumstances). Thanks to <der_wachtmeister@freenet.de>
289 2008-04-29 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
291 * Revert previous attempt at fix for SASL issue as it
292 is the wrong approach.
294 * Fix in correct manner, by making sm_rrecord() and thus
295 sm_hear() set the length of the reply string correctly
296 (the SASL libraries now care if you pass in the wrong
299 * Correct various places in smtp.c where the reply string
300 might not have been correctly NUL-terminated. Includes a
301 fix for a particularly nasty and long standing screwup
302 where the buffer length counting in smhear() was totally
303 broken for continued lines from the server.
305 2008-04-29 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
307 * Cope with sasl_decode64() returning SASL_CONTINUE, as
308 happens with newer sasl libraries and LOGIN auth.
310 2008-04-27 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
312 * Updated some of the 'how to do a release' documentation.
314 * Upped the VERSION string to '1.3-dev', since 1.3-RC1 has
317 2008-04-27 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
319 * Released nmh-1.3 RC1.
321 2008-04-11 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
323 * acconfig.h, configure.in, sbr/dtime.c, sbr/pidwait.c,
324 uip/mhshowsbr.c, uip/rcvtty.c, uip/slocal.c, uip/termsbr.c:
325 move most remaining macros out of acconfig.h which is an
326 obsolete feature of autoconf
328 2008-04-05 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
330 * bug #18655: fix use of admonish() for a fatal error (should
331 be adios(); only actual effect would be wrong exit code).
332 Thanks to Craig Leres for spotting this.
334 2008-04-05 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
336 * bug #20028 (Debian bug 399271): fix code assuming that pointer
337 differences were 32 bits -- thanks to Dean Gaudet for the patch.
339 2008-01-25 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
341 * uip/mhshowsbr.c (show_all_messages): Be more generous when parsing
344 2007-11-04 Joel Reicher <joel@panacea.null.org>
346 * Changed done() link overriding to function pointer. Return type
347 is now void so that exit() can be used as done() callback. Dead
348 code return from all done()s removed, with return 1 in main()
349 following done() (should never be reached).
351 2007-08-21 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
353 * Red Hat Bug #253342: inc.c, utils.c, utils.h: When inc is run with
354 the -silent flag, don't exit(1) for no apparent reason.
356 2007-03-12 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
358 * bug #18630, #18631, #18632, #18634: various patches from
359 Craig Leres fixing error message argument problems.
361 2007-03-12 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
363 * bug #15212: configure.in, acconfig.h: remove configure test for
364 broken AT&T vi. This test was broken (it was always returning
365 failure even for non-broken vi implementations) and
366 unfixable. Nobody should be using AT&T vi any more so I have
367 simply moved it back to being a setting you can put manually into
368 acconfig.h if you must.
370 2006-10-24 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
372 * uip/sendsbr.c: with attachformat values of 1 or 2, add
373 name= portion to Content-Type header. This makes them
374 consistent with attachformat value 0. And it allows mhstore
375 to use that (file)name when extracting attachments.
377 2006-08-26 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
379 * configure.in: If we're not using dotlocking, there is no need to set
382 2006-03-30 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
384 * uip/sendsbr.c: with attachformat values of 1 or 2, only
385 generate Content-Disposition headers for MIME attachments, not
386 for the message contents themselves. Microsoft Outlook Build
387 10.0.6626, at least, doesn't show the message contents if they
388 have Content-Disposition.
390 2006-03-09 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
392 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c (decode_rfc2047): Don't close the iconv descriptor
395 2006-03-08 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
397 * (mh_strcasecmp): Rename the private strcasecmp function to
398 mh_strcasecmp. This keeps the newer gnu linker happy.
400 2006-03-05 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
402 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c: don't try to malloc 0 bytes if an RFC2047
403 encoded block is empty
405 2006-03-04 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
407 * etc/Makefile.in: use INSTALL_SCRIPT to install scripts;
408 this allows INSTALL_PROGRAM to be set to 'install -s' so
409 binaries are stripped on installation. Apparently the BSDs
412 2006-02-25 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
414 * uip/sendsbr.c: replaced st_mtim with st_mtime, that's what
415 it should have been. Added #include of h/tws.h to pick up
418 2006-02-20 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
420 * h/mh.h, h/prototypes.h, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, uip/send.c,
421 uip/sendsbr.c, uip/viamail.c, uip/whatnowsbr.c, man/send.man:
422 added -attachformat switch to send, to support alternate MIME
423 header contents when using -attach. See send man page for
426 * man/mhbuild.man: wrapped one appearance of "Content-Disposition"
427 with quotes, to be consistent with others.
429 2006-02-20 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
431 * h/utils.h, sbr/utils.c, uip/flist.c, uip/folder.c: Move duplicate
432 function num_digits into utils.c
434 2006-02-19 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
436 * sbr/m_draft.c, sbr/utils.c, uip/folder.c, uip/inc.c,
437 uip/mhstoresbr.c, uip/popi.c, uip/refile.c: Add create_folder()
438 function, replacing duplicate code during folder creation.
440 2006-02-18 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
442 * h/mime.h, h/mhparse.h, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, uip/mhfree.c,
443 man/mhbuild.man, docs/TODO: added support for an optional
444 Content-Disposition header in mhbuild (only). Its contents
445 are supplied between {}, positioned after the optional [], in
446 a mhbuild directive. If the contents do not contain a
447 "filename=" parameter, and the directive has a filename, or
448 something else that ends with "name=", then that will be used
449 to add a "filename=" parameter to the header.
451 2006-02-12 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
453 * docs/TODO: added RFC2183 to reference of RFC1806 for
454 Content-Disposition header.
456 2006-01-31 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
458 * uip/mhbuild.c, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, man/mhbuild.man: added
459 -nocontentid switch, to disable generation of Content-ID:
460 header in MIME messages. (Also added -contentid for
461 symmetry.) The default configuration of Microsoft Outlook,
462 Build 10.0.3416 in particular, doesn't see attachments in
463 incoming messages if there are Content-ID headers, see
464 http://home.cwru.edu/~wrv/eudoraoutlookfix.html. This allows
465 users to easily accomodate that by adding
466 mhbuild: -nocontentid to their .mh_profile.
468 2006-01-29 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
470 * bug 4360: uip/replsbr.c: remove trailing newlines from components
471 to fix bug with spaces at the end of Subject/References in replies
473 2006-01-18 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
475 * configure.in: use AS_HELP_STRING for formatting help messages
477 * configure.in, sbr/fmt_scan.c: add autoconf magic to support
478 old systems that don't support multibyte character sets
480 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: fix bug with insertion of newline being wrong if
481 the num function was used at the end of the format buffer
483 2006-01-17 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
485 * uip/post.c, uip/spost.c: in make_bcc_file (), use same
486 logic as in finish_headers () to detect whether there is an
487 existing From: line in the draft. If draft_from masquerade
488 flag is enabled, this allows the From: to be obeyed in the
489 Bcc, instead of the old behavior of always replacing it with
492 2006-01-17 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
494 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: more robust multi-byte/column support for field
495 widths, restoring right justification feature
497 2006-01-16 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
499 * h/aliasbr.h, h/rcvmail.h, man/Makefile.in, man/slocal.man,
500 sbr/lock_file.c, uip/aliasbr.c, uip/dropsbr.c, uip/post.c,
501 uip/slocal.c, man/mh-mts.man: remove remnants of code for MMDF
503 * uip/scansbr.c: multiply buffer size by MB_CUR_MAX so multi-byte
506 2006-01-14 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
508 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: Turn the PUTSF macro into a function capable of
509 handling multi column characters.
511 2006-01-07 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
513 * Remove sbr/strerror.c -- strerror(3) is defined in C89.
515 2006-01-06 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
517 * patch #3968: Move the add() function from its own file (add.c) and
518 into utils.c. There was also a duplicate add() function in mf.c which
521 2006-01-02 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
523 * Remove sbr/pwd.c file, moving the pwd() function into sbr/utils.c.
525 2006-01-01 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
527 * patch #3967: Create a mh_xrealloc function to prevent mistakes when
530 2006-01-01 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
532 * patch #3966: Create a mh_xmalloc function to prevent mistakes when
535 2005-12-24 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
537 * Bug #15285: Don't use $< in target rules in makefiles, as POSIX
538 says it's only defined in inference rules. (BSD make was expanding
539 $< to the empty string in the rule for building sbr/dtimep.c, which
540 causes lex to apparently hang because it's reading from stdin.)
542 2005-12-24 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
544 * Completely redo db library checking -- we now check for working
545 (include file, library) pairs rather than checking for headers and
546 libraries separately. We also now provide --with-ndbm=lib and
547 --with-ndbmheader=header options to configure to handle situations
548 where configure's autodetection fails.
550 2005-12-21 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
552 * Fix stupid accidental dependence on a bash quirk in previous
553 configure script change.
555 2005-12-15 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
557 * Improve checking for Berkeley db libraries: configure should now
558 find a suitable library on systems with new gdbm where
559 compatibility functions are in the gdbm_compat library, and on
562 2005-12-13 Michael Forrest <mef@computer.org>
564 * Fedora Bug #163760: sbr/context_read.c (context_read): Ensure that
565 the context is only read once.
567 2005-12-12 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
569 * uip/sendsbr.c (annoaux): Fix the call to annotate() fixing a bug
570 which prevented repl from properly annotating messages.
572 2005-12-07 Jon Steinhart <nmh@fourwinds.com>
574 * Fixed a bug where anno -append put the headers in the wrong place
575 if applied to a message that didn't contain any headers.
577 * Added a special value of "all" to the -number option that causes
578 anno -delete to delete all matching components instead of just
581 * Added new -preserve and -nopreserve options. Using -preserve
582 retains the original last accessed and last modified times on
585 2005-12-05 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
587 * Fedora Bug #174983: configure.in: Fix the AC_PATH_PROG default when
588 vi isn't found during build.
590 2005-11-19 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
592 * bug #14977: sbr/context_read.c: special case an MHCONTEXT of
593 "/dev/null" and don't try to lock it.
595 * bug #9228, debian bug #146449: man/mh-profile.man: make it clearer
596 that lower case environment variables (and in particular mheditor)
597 are internal to nmh and not intended to be set by the user.
599 2005-11-09 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
601 * sbr/mf.c: fix buffer overrun with absurdly long addresses
602 (only causes crashes if scan is run with '-width 16536' or similar)
604 * bug #7917: sbr/context_foil.c, sbr/context_read.c,
605 sbr/context_save.c: mark 'no context' with NULL rather than
606 "/dev/null" so we don't inadvertently try to lock /dev/null (which
607 takes up to a minute in some locking configurations and makes post
610 * patch #3913: uip/post.c: pass some globals into sm_init() so that
611 it uses SASL if necessary. (This bug was preventing Bcc'd emails
612 from being sent via SASL authenticated SMTP.)
614 * bug #9813: uip/rmf.c: don't crash if there's no Current-Folder
615 entry in the context file.
617 2005-11-13 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
619 * bug #7833: uip/Makefile.in: remove link to install-mh that caused
620 problems on some systems
622 * bug #739: Makefile.in: install target now depends on all to avoid
623 problem on case-insensitive file systems with the INSTALL file
625 2005-11-10 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
627 * Fedora Bug #172838: configure.in: Fix the AC_PATH_PROG default when
628 sendmail isn't found during build.
630 2005-11-09 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
632 * h/aliasbr.h: fix a non-ANSI prototype.
634 2005-11-08 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
636 * Simon Burge: acconfig.h, configure.in, uip/rcvtty.c, uip/slocal.c:
637 fix to handle getutent() on NetBSD
639 * INSTALL, README, docs/README.about, man/nmh.man: update most
640 references to the web page and mailing list locations
642 * bug #10230: etc/Makefile.in, man/Makefile.in, uip/Makefile.in:
643 Michael De La Rue: prepend DESTDIR to install locations
645 * configure.in, */Makefile.in, mts/smtp/smtp.c: replace obsolete
648 2005-11-06 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
650 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, sbr/fmt_scan.c, h/prototypes.h: fix various
651 possible overruns of the buffers in fmt_scan() which would cause
652 crashes if scan was run with '-width 16536' or similar.
654 * uip/popsbr.c: fix compile error which only showed up if nmh
655 was configured with --enable-apop.
657 * Debian Bug# 245932, RedHat Bug# 172388: uip/mhparse.c: don't
658 crash when handling a multipart MIME message with an invalid
659 Content-Type header (file handle was being fclose()d twice).
661 * sbr/Makefile.in: adjust lex command to work on both old and
662 new versions of flex.
664 * configure.in: add an AC_PREREQ() so autoconf 2.13 gives a helpful
665 error message and the Debian autoconf-version-guessing wrapper
666 doesn't guess wrongly.
668 2005-11-02 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
670 * Debian Bug# 320069: Nick Rusnov: uip/popsbr.c: fail when
671 kpop connection attempted without KPOP support compiled in
673 * Debian Bug# 320090: Nick Rusnov: sbr/Makefile.in: fix for newer
674 version of flex and remove autogenerated file from cvs
676 * patch #1155: uip/flist.c: speed up flist by skipping stat on
677 files with numbers as names
679 * docs/Makefile.in: include new files in distribution
681 2005-10-11 Bill Wohler <wohler@newt.com>
683 * docs/FAQ: fold questions into MH FAQ and distribute that instead
685 2005-10-05 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
687 * Harald Geyer: h/mh.h, uip/replsbr.c: back out previous change
688 (fork/vfork) and replace with code that handles the issue directly
690 2005-05-18 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
692 * Debian Bug# 143485: Nick Rusnov: h/mh.h: use fork instead of
695 * Debian Bug# 261592: Harald Geyer: uip/mhlsbr.c, uip/replsbr.c:
696 test/report error writing to stdout
698 * mts/smtp/smtp.c, uip/popsbr.c: correct SASL include file locations
700 * docs/COMPLETION-BASH: bash completion definitions from Debian
702 * patch #2863: savannah@brisammon.fastmail.fm: sbr/folder_read.c:
703 fix a bug affecting AFS where nmh was setting the READONLY flag
704 for a folder even when you do have write access to the folder
706 * Carl Mummert: h/fmt_compile.h, man/mh-format.man,
707 sbr/fmt_compile.c, sbr/fmt_scan.c: add unquote() function for
708 removing quotes from RFC-2822 encoded headers
710 2005-02-23 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
712 * use iconv to convert RFC-2047 encoded headers to the
713 character set used by the current locale
715 * sbr/folder_read.c fix Debian bug #202667: crash when a
716 message's filename overflows an int when converted
718 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
719 versions (from automake 1.9.5)
721 2005-02-21 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
723 * sbr/getpass.c fix bug where inc crashed on failing to reopen
726 2005-01-27 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
728 * Added -proxy option to inc and msgchk. Based on old patch
729 from Michael Richardson.
731 * On systems where it is available, use nl_langinfo to get the
732 character set if MM_CHARSET is unset
734 2005-01-21 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
736 * sbr/check_charset.c US-ASCII is a subset of UTF-8 so can be
737 handled directly when UTF-8 is being used
739 2004-12-17 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
741 * uip/mhmisc.c Fix -part option to mhshow/mhlist/mhstore to
742 find sub-parts of the specified part
744 2004-11-19 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
746 * h/prototypes.h, sbr/folder_addmsg.c, uip/mhstoresbr.c,
747 uip/rcvstore.c, uip/refile.c: Added mail directory argument to
748 folder_addmsg in order to make it possible to provide a path to
749 the ext_hook call that is mailpath-based. A problem existed when
750 a folder was a symbolic link and the pwd call would return the
751 path relative to the filesystem, not to mailpath. A new argument
752 was needed because there was otherwise no reasonable way to get
755 2004-11-16 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
757 * sbr/folder_pack.c: Fixed problem where the refile hook was being
758 called after a message was renamed so that it wasn't around for
759 the hook. The hook is now called before the message file is
762 * sbr/folder_addmsg.c: Fixed wrong directory for hook when
763 refiling with -src option.
765 2004-10-15 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
767 * uip/sortm.c: Fixed calling of external hooks.
769 2004-10-12 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
771 * uip/inc.c: Fixed another weird bug caused by the static
772 mailpath being overwritten.
774 * uip/sendsbr.c: Fixed bug that caused anno to mangle headers.
776 * sbr/lock_file.c: Fixed strange bug that prevented a lock from
777 ever being obtained if getting it failed the first time. The
778 problem was that the string of XXXXXX that is required by
779 mkstemp() was overwritten the first time through, and so all
780 subsequent times failed because mkstemp() failed. The fix
781 reinitializes the tmp file string.
783 * uip/inc.c: Fixed bug in which the static maildir was overwritted
784 if a format string was read from the profile.
786 * sbr/folder_delmsgs.c: Fixed bug that was producing an incorrect
787 path for the external hook.
789 2003-10-06 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
791 * uip/slocal.c, configure.in: db configuration fix for Debian; yet
792 another location for ndbm.
794 2003-09-30 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
796 * Fix 'pick' so handling of options "-list" and "-seq" are
798 * Fix 'inc' realloc error when bringing in more than 100 msgs
800 * Patches submitted by Nick Rusnov from Debian archive applied:
803 136976 - Handle binary content messages
804 143427 - mh-format.man typo
805 144098 - 'spost; should have same behavior as 'post'
806 w.r.t. mts.conf masquerade line
807 149745 - slocal ignores 'N' result of previous command
808 152728 - increase SMTP timeouts to conform to RFC 1123
809 The timeouts suggested by the RFC seem long
810 to me - but the RFC is still listed as active.
811 181867 - typo for nmh.man
813 2003-08-10 Jeffrey C Honig <jch@honig.net>
815 * Fix problem where parsing of address/date fields in fmt_compile
816 is optimized to the first instance. The first instance may be in
817 contitional code which will result in cached data to
818 be used. Instead, convert c_flags to a flags field from a boolean
819 and parse on the first use.
820 * Remove some unused flag bits.
822 Fri Jul 01 22:02:00 2003 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
824 * Applied fixes for configuration problems with Solaris and
825 systems with gdbm instead of db1 (includes bug #2024)
827 #578 - repl leaks umask
828 #1393 - sortm core dumps
829 #1650 - msh leaks file descriptors
830 #1730 - Double free() in mhfree.c:free_encoding()
831 #3356 - In-Reply-To header in default replcomps should be
833 * Revised man page for mh-format (bug #2031)
834 * New replcomps, etc, with Fcc: +outbox in default versions
836 Sat Mar 17 03:18:15 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
838 * Ken Hornstein's configure.in Cyrus SASL checks were doing
839 `x"$with_cyrus_sasl" != "no"' instead of `... != x"no"'.
841 Tue Mar 06 21:04:27 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
843 * Found some historical information about MH in RFC 808.
844 Supplemented it with info from Jerry Peek's MH book and added it
845 to docs/README.about.
847 Tue Feb 6 20:35:40 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
849 * sbr/dtime.c Use the same Y2K correction code as dtimep.lex
851 * sbr/dtimep.lex Restrict the parser to accept either
852 a numerical timezone offset, or a symbolic one (e.g. EST),
853 but not both (Since "2000 -400 EDT" might cause a double
854 subtraction of 60 minutes if both are parsed. One should be
857 Mon Feb 05 20:22:54 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
859 * -L isn't sufficient for specifying the path of the Cyrus SASL
860 shared library. That'll allow us to link successfully, but on
861 many/most OSes that won't allow us to find libsasl at runtime. On
862 Solaris, we need to specify the library path with -R as well (or
863 else the user will have to use the $LD_LIBRARY_PATH kludge, which
864 is considered harmful). This fix should be extended to other OSes
867 * Print whether we have SASL support in the "nmh configuration"
868 summary configure prints out.
870 * Say in README.developers to use `\date' in case anyone is like
871 me and has `date' aliased in their shell to use a nonstandard (but
872 subjectively more readable) format.
874 Thu Jan 25 21:15:52 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
876 * man/mh-chart.man has updated synposes of
879 Tue Jan 23 20:26:15 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
881 * etc/digestcomps tried to force dates into a
882 19xx when it's not necessary.
884 Fri Jan 19 21:22:08 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
886 * First round of manpage updates finished. They
887 are standardized on -man macros, with minimal
890 * man/tmac.h.in is no longer needed, since the
891 manpages do not depend on them anymore. Note:
892 strict "man" programs that didn't allow ".so"
893 sourcing outside the man tree will now format
894 the man pages correctly.
896 * man/vmh.1 is no longer built, since uip/vmh isn't
898 Tue Jan 9 6:01:22 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
900 * Finished manpages ali-prev
902 * Removed deprecated files from the repository.
903 Specifically, those rooted in zotnet/ and mts/sendmail
904 mts/mmdf. "cvs update -dP" will give a pruned directory
907 * Updated docs/Makefile.in to include README.manpages, and
908 uip/Makefile.in to include popi.c (which isn't being built,
909 though). This allows "make nmhdist" to create an archive that
910 is file-for-file identical to the current cvs repository.
912 Sun Dec 31 20:48:50 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
914 * Create docs/README.manpages, which details
915 the formatting rules I've been using.
919 Sat Dec 30 9:50:13 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
921 * Created a new file "DATE" to hold the date
922 of the most recent nmh release. This date will be
923 used in the manpages.
925 * Updated docs/README.developers to add the step
926 of updating DATE. Also, updated configure to
927 read in the contents of the file as the variable
930 * Started work on updating man pages, with only
931 ali finished so far. Changes: 1) no dependence
932 on an external macro file, 2) uses only
933 -man macros (although I may be mistaken in this),
934 3) syntax in the SYNOPSIS is a little more
935 in line with standard UNIX documentation, such as
936 bold flags and italicized parameters.
938 Sun Dec 24 10:06:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
940 * Updated INSTALL with information about the
941 --with-locking option.
943 * Fixed the Hesiod tests in configure.in. In
944 systems where res_send was in -lresolv, this
945 information was not being communicated to the
946 HESIOD_LIBS var. Now, if res_send is not found
947 in the default libraries, it's assumed to be
948 in -lresolv, and thus -lresolv is appended to
949 HESIOD_LIBS, which will need that to avoid
950 undefined symbols problems.
952 * Fixed the Kerberos tests in configure.in. New
953 versions of Kerberos 5 have renamed -lcrypto
954 to -lk5crypto (circa krb5 1.1 or thereabouts). The
955 new test tries to determine if -lk5crypto exists. If so,
956 this is a new krb5 system. If not, test for -lcrypto
957 and the rest of old krb5. If that fails, look
958 for a genuine krb4 installation.
960 Fri Dec 22 22:08:51 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
962 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in msgchk.man.
963 -snoop was documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
965 Fri Dec 22 23:42:16 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
967 * Made a new ./configure option called
968 "--with-locking" that allows the file
969 locking mechanism to be chosen there instead of
970 requiring a manual edit of config.h.
972 * If the option is not explicitly set, or an
973 invalid option is specified, "dot" locking is
974 chosen. Valid options are "dot", "fcntl",
975 "flock", and "lockf". We need a way to tell
976 the user that these are the valid options, and
977 change the flag "--with-locking" if it's not
980 Fri Dec 22 19:21:29 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
982 * Remove the lex-specific memory hints at the
983 beginning of sbr/dtimep.lex. We've already
984 committed to supporting flex only, since
985 lex does not easily allow us to parse a single
986 string, as well as other problems documented
987 below and on nmh-workers.
989 * Added a switch statement to configure.in to
990 test for Mac OS X. If this is the case, LDFLAGS
991 should not contain "-s" since the linker rejects
994 * Updated MACHINES to include Mac OS X Public Beta,
995 as well as Linux 2.4 running glibc 2.2.
997 Wed Dec 20 16:00:46 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
999 * Marked deprecated directories in docs/README.developers
1000 as deprecated, with pointers to the new code location.
1001 Eventually these deprecated directories should go away.
1003 Tue Dec 19 19:16:37 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1005 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in inc.man. -snoop was
1006 documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
1008 Thu Dec 14 14:32:09 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1010 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
1011 versions on ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/config, dated
1012 12-07-00. This should prevent configure from failing
1013 on newer operating systems because config.{guess,sub}
1014 couldn't correctly identify them.
1016 Thu Dec 14 1:30:44 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1018 * Fixed the circular dependency created when I moved
1019 zotnet/mts to mts/generic and merged them into libmts.
1020 mts/generic/client.c and mts/generic/mts.c are now in sbr/
1021 (and thus in libmh), which makes libmh self-contained and
1022 not depending on an external archive.
1024 * All include statements now look for mts.h in h/. The
1025 Makefiles and configure script have been modified so that
1026 mts/generic is no longer built.
1028 Mon Dec 11 22:08:07 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1030 * When Shantonu made the new libmts.a, he swapped $(MTSLIB) and
1031 libmh.a in sbr/Makefile.in so that libmh.a comes first, but this
1032 causes the build to fail on Solaris, because libmts.a has to get
1033 ruserpass() out of libmh.a. Swapping them back to the way Ken
1034 Hornstein's patch (which I applied on Jul 20) put them, with
1035 libmh.a correctly coming second. If there are times when libmts.a
1036 needs to come second, then it would appear there's a circular
1037 dependency and someone (Shantonu?) did an mts merge incorrectly.
1039 Fri Sep 8 01:36:23 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1041 * Took out bad time textual time zones like BST and JST.
1042 I found them online somewhere, but am not sure if they're
1045 Fri Sep 8 00:36:48 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1047 * Moved zotnet/mts to mts/generic. This code reorganization
1048 makes the entire zotnet tree deprecated -- bboards is unneeded,
1049 mf was was moved to sbr, tws was rewritten and moved to sbr, and
1052 * Created a new static library called libmts.a used during
1053 compilation which includes the generic mts code and the
1054 smtp/sendmail code. This supercedes the functionality of the
1055 old libsmtp.a and the remains of libzot.a.
1057 * Updated header includes to reference the new location of mts.h
1058 in mts/generic/mts.h. Also, update the configure and top-level
1059 Makefile not to descend into zotnet. Also, they don't descend
1060 into mts/mmdf and mts/sendmail (the sendmail code has been
1061 merged into the smtp code).
1063 * Added #include <h/nmh.h> to h/md5.h, since my compile was
1064 complaining about implicitly-declared memcpy and memset, which
1065 appear to be in strings.h. In any event, nmh.h should take care
1068 * When doing a "make nmhdist", notice that the generated
1069 snapshot does not include zotnet of the mts directories as noted
1070 above. Since they are no longer compiled, and I don't see any
1071 obvious code path to get to them, end-users should probably
1072 not need them. If you think otherwise, turn Makefile generation
1073 back on in configure.in and turn on recursion into those dirs
1074 in the appropriate Makefile.in
1076 Wed Sep 6 22:40:03 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1078 * Tracked down the problem in the new dtimep where time
1079 zones were being radically misreported. It was because the
1080 parser knew about military time zones (such as M or E) but in
1081 some cases did not know about the textual representation of
1082 some zones (like MET). When it encountered one of these, the
1083 date parser misread MET as the military time zone T (well, first
1084 zone M, then E, and finally T). I took military zones out, and
1085 things seem much better. Also, the default behavior of parsing
1086 time zones appears to default to GMT in the absence of better
1087 info, which is less bogus than assuming the mail came from the
1088 current time zone, which was the behavior in 1.04.
1090 Thu Aug 10 13:22:13 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1092 * Decided that limiting the message number columns to 3 on my
1093 scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD (to try to regain space taken by
1094 extra date info) was ill-conceived. It's not that tough to get
1095 past 999 messages, though I imagine it's rather rare to exceed
1096 9999. Changed these to 4. Also put the "replied / encrypted"
1097 column back in YYYYMMDD -- I've never seen it show anything but a
1098 space, but that space is useful if you use scan, grep, and awk
1099 (with the default field separator) to grab message numbers (I know
1100 -- pick should really be used for these purposes...).
1102 Mon Aug 7 20:11:09 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1104 * Modify umask set by mhshow to enable user execute bit, so that
1105 viewers that create temporary directories (e.g., lynx) will be
1106 able to access them.
1108 Thu Aug 03 17:14:08 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1110 * TODO: Allow multiple simultaneous differing contexts, probably
1111 each tied to a parent (terminal) process.
1113 Tue Aug 1 10:48:05 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
1115 * Makefile install rules should not look for generated files in
1116 the source tree -- this will happen to work when configuring and
1117 building inside the source tree but will fail when using an
1118 external build tree. Fixed etc/Makefile.in.
1120 Mon Jul 24 16:20:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1122 * When Shantonu wrote the new, more portable dtimep.lex, he left
1123 out the #ifdef DSTXXX stuff for some reason. Not a good idea, as
1124 that code is required for proper printing of numeric-offset
1125 timezones that have daylight saving time. Without that code,
1126 -0700 during DST gets printed as MST instead of PDT.
1128 * Renamed DSTXXX as ADJUST_NUMERIC_ONLY_TZ_OFFSETS_WRT_DST and
1129 added an explanatory comment by its #definition.
1131 * Updated README.developers with the fact that zotnet/tws is going away.
1133 Thu Jul 20 20:30:52 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1135 * Moved Kimmo's new "--with-hash-backup" to be output with the
1136 rest of the --with options in the configure --help output. Also,
1137 people did not preserve my alphabetization of the --with options
1138 when they added new ones. Re-alphabetized.
1140 * One more pass at README.developers now that it's clear that my
1141 previously-suggested one-line autoconf-file commit can cause
1142 unnecessary local makes and an out-of-sync stamp-h.in file, but
1143 would not cause problems for other people using the CVS files.
1145 * Ken Hornstein's SASL patch was not integrated properly with
1146 Ruud's new merged mts/sendmail code. Kimmo has since fixed nmh so
1147 it compiles, but according to Ken, the SASL stuff still does not
1148 work. Integrating a patch from him for this.
1150 * Last pass at README.developers -- Kimmo's 5-step commit was
1151 overkill. You only need 3 steps, since configure.in is the only
1152 autoconf file with the RCS $Id keyword.
1154 * Applied Kurt J. Lidl <lidl@eng.us.uu.net>'s $MAILHOST patch:
1156 I have a small patch that would be nice to be included --
1157 basically, it allows the usage of the "MAILHOST" environment
1158 variable, without having to have HESIOD turned on. I need
1159 this functionality for my environment, where we have identical
1160 /usr/local on all my machines (so I cannot just hardcode into
1161 the mts.conf file), and I have multiple POP mail servers for
1164 Modified inc.man to reflect that along with "pophost:" and -host,
1165 $MAILHOST can now activate POP mail inclusion as well.
1167 * Fixed warnings from diff on first-time install of nmh. Also
1168 added 'echo's clarifying the etc file installation activities.
1170 Tue Jul 18 19:36:59 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
1172 * Added the answer to Dan's question in README.developers.
1174 Mon Jul 17 19:10:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1176 * Clarified and made some corrections to Kimmo's README.developers
1177 changes (BTW, if anyone can explain why the RCS Ids are able to cause
1178 problems with the dependencies, please fill in the explanation --
1179 I never encountered a problem with the old single-commit method).
1181 Sat Jul 15 23:13:49 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
1183 * Add configure option --with-hash-backup so the backup prefix can
1184 be easily changed from "," to "#".
1186 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that it works with any make.
1188 * Use mkstemp in sbr/lock_file.c.
1190 * Commits of autoconf-related files apparently can't all be done
1191 in one shot due to RCS Ids changing when committing -- updated
1194 Tue Jul 11 14:18:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1196 * Clarified post.man and send.man for those not completely up on
1197 SASL terminology. "SASL encryption layers are not supported for
1198 SMTP" means that encryption is supported for the authentication
1199 but not for the subsequent data stream.
1201 Sat Jul 8 01:36:19 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
1203 * Applied Ken Hornstein <kenh@cmf.nrl.navy.mil>'s patches
1204 implementing SASL support for POP3 and SMTP. If nmh is compiled
1205 with SASL support, using the -sasl switch on the inc, msgchk,
1206 post, and send commands will enable authentication encryption for
1207 SMTP, and both authentication and data stream encryption for POP3.
1209 Sat Jun 10 18:37:59 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1211 * Merged mts/sendmail functionality into mts/smtp; switching between
1212 smtp and sendmail delivery method is now controlled by mts.conf.
1214 * If tsort cannot deal with loops, in addition to defining tsort as
1215 cat, also define lorder as echo.
1217 * Removed uip/popi.c from list of sources.
1219 Thu Jun 08 19:36:57 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1221 * New dtimep.lex didn't parse day names properly. Fixed. Also
1222 clarified ambiguous comments preceding day_map[] array (from old
1223 dtimep.lex) that probably led to the erroneous cp++ being added.
1225 Wed Jun 7 20:52:33 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1227 * Added one more mkstemp invocation to uip/spost.c (which was in a
1230 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to clean up permissions handling
1231 and error handling in uip/inc.c.
1233 Mon Jun 5 22:10:07 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1235 * Use cat instead of tsort if tsort cannot deal with loops in its
1236 input (which is the case for tsort from GNU textutils).
1238 Mon Jun 5 21:14:36 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1240 * If lockfile is present, and its dotlockfile program is setgid,
1241 inc does not need to be setgid.
1243 Sun Jun 4 21:35:40 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1245 * Added autoconf test for Miquel van Smoorenburg's liblockfile
1246 library, as found on Debian systems.
1248 * Added liblockfile support to sbr/lock_file.c.
1250 Wed May 31 7:19:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1252 * Fixed up dtimep.lex a bit. Added back memory options for AIX to
1253 increase available memory. Took out %option noyywrap, which
1254 wasn't understood by AT&T lex, as well as the -i
1255 case-insensitivity flag.
1257 Wed May 31 07:40:45 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1259 * Added a lint target to the Makefiles and a check in autoconf
1260 to determine whether lint or lclint exists on the system.
1262 Fri May 30 19:21:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1264 * etc/Makefile.in was incorrectly installing mts.conf.in and
1265 sendfiles.in -- fixed. Generated sendfiles script was not a
1266 dependency of the `all' target, and was incorrectly included in
1267 the distribution. Changed the suffix for the backed-up previous
1268 versions of the etc files from the ambiguous .old to .prev. Added
1269 call to diff -- only keep the .prev files around if different from
1270 the newly-installed versions (intentionally didn't redirect output
1271 to /dev/null so you'll notice when your changed versions are
1272 getting moved aside).
1274 * INSTALL never documented the etc/*.old thing. Documented the
1275 new etc/*.prev thing (including a note to watch for diff output).
1277 * Applied Alec Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu>'s dropsbr.c patch:
1279 In the map_write routine, a call is made to map_open and this
1280 call is supposed to set the "clear" variable to 0 or 1,
1281 depending on whether the map file is empty or not. In
1282 mh6.8.3, this worked because map_open would set "clear" by
1283 calling the mbx_Xopen routine. In nmh, the code for mbx_Xopen
1284 was merged into mbx_open, but the interface for mbx_open
1285 doesn't support the clear variable, so that functionality was
1286 lost. The map_open interface still contains "int *clear" in
1287 the prototype, but never sets it.
1289 My patch eliminates "clear" from the map_open interface (I
1290 checked to make sure that map_write is the only client of
1291 map_open). Furthermore, my patch also sets the "clear"
1292 variable properly at the beginning of map_write by calling
1293 fstat(). This eliminates the bug in that the value of "clear"
1294 being used later in the routine was just stack garbage.
1296 Having a bad value of clear causes this next bug to be
1297 triggered: The fp file pointer was being opened with fdopen,
1298 but in two of the three switch cases it wasn't being closed.
1299 In certain cases, this was causing packf to run out of file
1300 descriptors if you attempted to pack a large folder.
1302 Mon May 29 7:48:15 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1304 * Moved the date parsing routines from zotnet/tws to sbr/ (and
1305 tws.h to h/). Updated all source files to reflect to new location
1308 * Rewrote dparsetime (in dtimep.lex -> dtimep.c) to replace the
1309 old zotnet/tws/dtimep.c, dtimep.lex, lexstring.c, lexedit.c, and
1310 dtimep.c-lexed. It should now work with flex (although untested
1311 with lex), and requires no sed-ing. For now, I have the lexed
1312 version in the distribution, so that end-users don't need to worry
1313 about running it through flex/lex. I have not added back support
1314 for guessing the time zone when it's not specified.
1316 Sun May 28 17:44:15 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1318 * Added autoconf check for getutent().
1320 * Changed uip/rcvtty.c and uip/slocal.c to use getutent() and
1321 friends. Since I can only check on Linux, please check if
1322 this works on other systems.
1324 Sun May 28 14:58:49 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1326 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to uip/scansbr.c for more
1327 checks for write failures.
1329 * Unlink temporary file properly in uip/rcvtty.c.
1331 * Moved viamail from bindir to libdir.
1333 * Changed sendfiles into sendfiles.in, so that path to viamail
1336 * Added gzip support to sendfiles.
1338 * Added References header to replcomps and replgroupcomps.
1340 Sun May 28 14:39:31 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1342 * Fixed m_getfld bug which caused segmentation faults when
1343 incorporating messages which ended in multiple linefeeds crossing
1346 Fri May 26 13:21:59 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1348 * msh has been unable to show MIME messages ever since 1.0. Alec
1349 Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu> tracked down the problem to the
1350 -show flag being passed to mhshow. mhshow is equivalent to the
1351 old mhn -show, so we don't need the -show anymore. Removed it.
1353 Fri May 12 02:51:21 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1355 * zotnet/bboards is not longer built by default. Goal is to move
1356 the assorted functions in zotnet into sbr or some more logical
1359 * Moved zotnet/mf to sbr, and changed mf.h references accordingly,
1360 as well as Makefiles.
1362 Thu May 11 02:21:34 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1364 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that both SRCS and OBJS aren't
1365 seperately and redundantly defined, but so that OBJS is a
1366 pattern-substituted version of SRCS with suffix .c -> .o. This
1367 should make maintainability easier.
1369 * Added section to MACHINES indicating what platforms nmh is known
1370 to compile and work on, just to give users peace of mind, or
1371 something. This is by no means complete or exhaustive, so add
1372 whatever you know works.
1374 Tue May 09 20:38:04 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1376 * Alphabetized Shantonu's $pop_kinds output on configure's "pop is
1377 enabled" line. If POP3 is the only kind of POP enabled, say so,
1378 rather than just saying "yes" (which is ambiguous).
1380 * Fixed four warnings in Shantonu's new getpass.c. Needed to
1381 #include <stdlib.h> for calloc(), <unistd.h> for ttyname(), and
1382 "h/mh.h" for adios(). Also changed ch from char to int to get rid
1383 of "comparison is always 1 due to limited range of data type" on EOF.
1385 * Added steps to README.developers saying to change the version
1386 number to X.Y.Z+dev. Did a little rearranging and changed the FTP
1387 dir from /home/ftp to /var/ftp to reflect Doug's new machine.
1389 * Changed configure.in to use gcc -Wall even without
1390 --enable-debug, to prevent developers compiling optimized from
1391 introducing warnings, and to give end-users a warm, fuzzy feeling
1392 as they (hopefully) see no warnings come out (except perhaps on
1393 the lex output file) even with -Wall.
1395 * Renamed getpass() to nmh_getpass() since the prototype for
1396 getpass() varies from OS to OS, and we want to _always_ use our
1397 version of the function. Fixed all the callers to use
1398 nmh_getpass() and added it to prototypes.h. Semi-arbitrarily
1399 upped MAX_PASSWORD_LEN from 128 to 256. buf was being calloc()'d
1400 and the memory leaked -- should have just been declared as static
1401 char array. Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the
1402 copyright message, as this version has been changed significantly
1403 from the BSD version.
1405 * Added "nmh-local functions to use in preference to OS versions"
1406 section to README.developers (currently just says to use
1407 nmh_getpass() instead of system getpass()).
1409 * Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the copyright message
1410 in ruserpass.c also.
1412 * Added mts.conf.5 page per Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s
1415 This happens on solaris:
1418 windex entry incorrect: mts.conf(5) not found.
1419 No manual entry for mts.conf.
1423 % echo ".so man5/mh-tailor.5" > mts.conf.5
1425 done in the man5 directory. We need to add 'mts.conf.5' as a
1426 reference sourcing mh-tailor.5.
1428 Mon May 08 23:51:55 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1430 * Doug informed me that the way I had restored the "lost" version
1431 histories was wrong, because `cvs checkout's of old versions of
1432 nmh wouldn't work properly. It occurs to me that this could be
1433 fixed by simply deleting those tags in the new-location *,v files,
1434 but oh well. I'm putting everything back to the way Doug
1435 originally had it. To get the old version history for a file that
1436 used to be in the top directory, you'll need to "blindly" do a
1437 `cvs log' there (even though you won't have a local copy of the
1438 file in that directory). `cvs diff' will no longer be able to
1439 diff pre-move versions vs. post-move versions -- you'll have to do
1440 a lot of manual gyrations with `cvs checkout' and then use `diff'.
1442 * I had alphabetized the --configure options in the --help output
1443 awhile back, but Shantonu added --enable-apop just under
1444 --enable-pop. Put it in alphabetical order and clarified what
1445 --enable-apop does vs. --enable-pop and --with-krb4. Also changed
1446 --with-mts help line from "mail transport agent" to "mail
1447 transport agent/service" so the 's' in "mts" doesn't seem to come
1450 * Added two steps to "releasing nmh" in README.developers. After
1451 making the tarball, it's a good idea to diff the tree vs. the CVS
1452 tree to make sure no files got left out, and then to chown the
1453 files so that they're owned by root, preventing a Trojaning attack
1454 by a malicious remote user with a UID matching yours.
1456 * Changed DIFFERENCES to say that RPOP is not currently supported
1457 rather than implying it by saying that APOP, KPOP, and POP[3] are.
1459 Sun May 07 18:16:43 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1461 * Imported NetBSD version of getpass() and made extensive
1462 revisions for compatibility with programs that pipe the password
1463 to stdin, such as exmh.
1465 * Removed tests for system ruserpass() which sometimes gave
1466 phantom positive results. Also, bext to use internal functions if
1467 we ever want to change .netrc format to something else, or access
1470 Sat May 06 08:28:09 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1472 * Restored lost version histories for those moved files by doing a
1473 manual `mv' in the CVSROOT on mhost. CVS badly needs a `cvs mv'
1474 command so that you can move files (without having physical access
1475 to the CVSROOT) without losing versioning. Put MACHINES back at
1476 the top level as it needs to be read before building. Fixed DIST
1477 variable in {.,docs}/Makefile.in to reflect that and to add
1478 missing entry for "INSTALL" file.
1480 Sat May 06 13:13:07 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1482 * Re-cleaned up nmh documentation (by moving things to docs
1483 subdir) and modified Makefile & configure.in to handle the change.
1485 Mon Apr 17 21:28:40 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1487 * Scott Blachowicz pointed out that the configure --help output
1488 for --enable-masquerade was misleading. Clarified.
1490 Mon Apr 17 19:01:00 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1492 * APOP support can be compiled in to inc and msgchk using
1495 * To access an APOP host, specify -apop on the command line
1496 along with any -host or -user option.
1498 Fri Apr 14 23:10:44 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1500 * Upped the version number to 1.0.4+dev until the next nmh release.
1502 * Added a "releasing nmh" section to README.developers, while the
1503 process was fresh in my mind.
1505 Fri Apr 14 18:21:34 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1507 * Added new files README.developers, ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6, and
1508 ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html to DIST target in Makefile.in.
1510 * Released nmh-1.0.4.
1512 Tue Apr 11 21:37:03 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1514 * Applied Brian Campbell <bacam@tardis.ed.ac.uk>'s mhn.defaults.sh
1517 It appears that there shouldn't be quotes around the %s in the
1518 iso-8859-1 charset entry; xterm passes the remaining arguments
1519 to the program, quoting them means that xterm thinks they're
1520 part of the program's name.
1522 This %s isn't the same as the "Insert content subtype" one from
1523 mhshow-show-* -- it doesn't come from MIME headers and is safe not
1526 Sun Apr 09 13:03:59 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1528 * added check in fmt_compile() to handle a single-character
1529 format string. fmt_compile() depends on having an array of
1530 format characters with an empty item at the end. A
1531 single-character format would cause programs using this
1532 function to segfault because the algorithm used to decide on
1533 the length of the array mistakenly created a single-item array
1534 when the format string was one character. This eventually
1535 caused problems when the program attempted to test item+1
1538 Thu Apr 06 21:53:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1540 * Richard Coleman threw out a lot of old MH-specific files in nmh.
1541 Much of the stuff, indeed, is not worth saving, but there are
1542 nuggets that are very worthwhile, and should probably be added
1543 back in. Most important, IMHO, are the MH change logs, as they
1544 can help answer questions like "Why is this code like this?" or
1545 "How long has this been broken?" or "What was this ever used for?"
1547 I've added a new file to the nmh tree called
1548 ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6. It's cobbled together from the
1549 mh-6.8.4/papers/mh*/MHCHANGES files. I've re-ordered the entries
1550 to go from newest at the top to oldest at the bottom to match the
1551 ChangeLog convention. Unfortunately there are no change logs for
1552 versions of MH prior to 3 in the MH tar files available at
1553 <ftp://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/mh>. Also, it appears to me that there
1554 are MH-6.6 changes that aren't documented in the logs.
1556 I've also added ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html. This is
1557 based on mh-6.8.4/papers/changes/mh-changes.ms. The nroff format
1558 and its "catman"-type output are a pain to deal with, but I was
1559 loath to throw away the formatting, so I converted the file to
1560 HTML. The only actual markup in the body are the "<B>" and "<U>"
1561 tags, and "<" and ">" instead of '<' and '>', so it's quite
1562 doable to view the file in plain ASCII mode as well. Note that
1563 some of the changes this file documents as having been made in
1564 MH-6.8.4 may not be present in nmh -- Richard started with 6.8.3
1565 and later put in certain 6.8.4 stuff.
1567 Wed Apr 05 21:09:28 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1569 * Applied Eric Schnoebelen <eric@cirr.com>'s mhshowsbr.c patch
1570 fixing apparent bugs in Dan Winship's new security quoting code:
1572 Since upgrading, I've been getting the following errors
1573 while attempting to process some MIME messages:
1575 (1) Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
1580 (2) line 1/10 (END)Segmentation fault (core dumped)
1582 (2) appears to be due to the testing of an unset pointer in
1583 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux(). (1) appears to be caused by
1584 mis-quoting a filename being handed to the shell in
1585 mhshowsbr.c:show_content_aux().
1587 Resolving the pointer reference issue in
1588 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux() turned up a similar mis-quoting
1589 problem in the routine.
1591 Tue Mar 28 16:17:39 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1593 * Applied Todd.Miller@courtesan.com's patch to dropsbr.c to
1594 prevent core dumping on packf. Here's the note from his message:
1596 Since sizeof(buffer) == sizeof(tmpbuffer) packf will dump
1597 core on a file w/o a From line with a line >= BUFSIZ.
1598 I noticed this because I had a junk file in my mail
1601 Fri Mar 17 11:59:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1603 * wesley.craig@umich.edu did not document his previous KPOP patch,
1604 so I did so, and asked him to check what I wrote. Unfortunately
1605 he didn't notice my misunderstanding of his patch. I wrote that
1606 if you #define POPSERVICE "kpop", inc and msgchk will use KPOP
1607 exclusively, but if you leave it as "pop3", you can use Wesley's
1608 new -kpop switch on a given invocation. Instead, however, -kpop
1609 turned out to be necessary on every invocation, and a KPOP user
1610 complained. Applied Wesley's new patch, which makes things work
1611 like I thought his original patch did. After that, did one more
1612 clarifying pass to the documentation in inc.man and msgchk.man.
1614 Wed Mar 15 18:45:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1616 * When I fixed the long-standing makedir() bugs in January, I had
1617 the code call strtoul(..., 0), which I believed to be safe as all
1618 modes specified as ASCII constants in the nmh code started with a
1619 leading zero (signifying octal), which I did as it would work if
1620 internal constants were ever changed to hex. Unfortunately I was
1621 unaware of the "Folder-Protect:" .mh_profile entry, which
1622 mh-profile.man documents as an octal-only constant, with no
1623 leading zero required. I've changed the strtoul() call to an
1624 atooi() call and removed the misleading leading zeroes on the
1625 ASCII octal constants in the code and man pages. Also changed the
1626 "Folder-Protect:" example in the man page to something more
1627 interesting than a duplication of the default.
1629 * When I added my --enable-masquerade option, you'll note that I
1630 didn't make it --enable-nmh-masquerade. I find the --enable-nmh-*
1631 options too wordy and I'm not sure why Richard went that route.
1632 I've renamed them to just --enable-*, but the old versions will
1633 still work as well (they just aren't advertised).
1635 * Added a line to the "nmh configuration" output saying whether
1638 * Added a new README.developers file. From the file:
1640 This file is intended to provide a few tips for anyone doing
1641 development on nmh. Developers who learn things "the hard
1642 way" about the nmh codebase (as opposed to local info best
1643 encoded in a comment) are encouraged to share their wisdom
1646 Currently the topics are "autoconf files" and "directory structure".
1648 Tue Mar 14 12:41:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1650 * Applied, after some finessing,
1651 Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s --with-smtpservers patch:
1653 Here's a patch that allows you to add
1655 --with-smtpservers=<some.host.name>
1657 to the ./configure command line to set the "servers: " line in
1658 etc/mts.conf. Around here, we use "mailhost" so that all
1659 machines in the current domain just talk to a central machine
1660 and nothing else runs an MTA. Now, I can use
1662 --with-smtpservers=mailhost
1664 instead of having to remember to fix this by hand (and often
1665 forgetting to do so!).
1667 * Inspired by Simon's patch, added an --enable-masquerade option
1668 to configure. It will set the "masquerade:" line of mts.conf.
1669 You may specify a subset of the three types of masquerading, like
1670 --enable-masquerade="draft_from mmailid", or leave off explicit
1671 arguments to enable all three types.
1673 * Alphabetized the --enable and --with options in configure.in and
1674 INSTALL and added documentation of the two new options to the latter.
1676 * Added new dependency for mts.conf: Makefile. If this isn't
1677 done, then when you reconfigure nmh with new values for
1678 --enable-masquerade or --with-smtpservers, you'll fail to get an
1679 updated copy of mts.conf.
1681 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtimep.lex patch:
1683 It seems that some MUA's didn't handle y2k very well - ELM
1684 seems to be one of them, and Ultrix's DXmail (based on MH!).
1685 I've got a few emails this month that look like:
1687 575 Jan 00 Xxxxxx Xxxx 3603 ...
1689 22+ Jan 00 Xxx Xxxxx 1771 ...
1691 The first has "15 Jan 100" as the date and the second has
1692 "19 Jan 00" as the date. The following works around this so
1693 that scan, show, sortm, etc work ok.
1695 I put Simon's patch under the control of a new #define called
1696 FIX_NON_Y2K_COMPLIANT_MUA_DATES. There's some commentary in
1697 acconfig.h about when you might not want to #define it.
1699 * Created new dtimep.c-lexed with Simon's change using dtimep.lex
1700 lexed on Solaris 2.6. Added missing dependency in
1701 zotnet/tws/Makefile.in for dtimep.c: dtimep.c-lexed.
1703 * Added scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD format files.
1705 Mon Mar 13 21:32:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1707 * Applied Sullivan N. Beck <sbeck@cise.ufl.edu>'s mhshow-suffix patch:
1709 With the patch below, you can add lines like:
1711 mhshow-suffix-application/msword: .doc
1712 mhshow-suffix-application/PostScript: .ps
1714 to the mhn.defaults file to append the given suffix to a
1715 scratch file. This allows applications which require a
1716 certain suffix to run properly.
1718 * Removed -force_html from lynx entry in mhn.defaults.sh (I
1719 believe older versions of lynx lack that option) and added
1720 "mhshow-suffix-text/html: .html".
1722 * Modified username_extension masquerading to only use the
1723 extended address on generated [Resent-]From: lines and SMTP
1724 envelope From:. With Neil's original implementation, nmh's global
1725 idea of the username was changed, which would result in inc lying
1726 and saying you had no new mail because it was looking for a
1727 mailbox called, for instance, "dan-nmh" (where username was "dan"
1728 and $USERNAME_EXTENSION was "-nmh").
1730 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtime.c patch:
1732 There's a wrap-around problem that affects the implementation
1733 of Zeller's congruence in dtime.c. This causes the day-of-week
1734 calculations to fail for dates after Feb 29, 2000 (probably up
1735 until some year far in the future).
1737 Mon Mar 06 12:20:20 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1739 * Applied Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s msh.c patch:
1741 I finally tracked down the problem in msh that was causing
1742 errors whenever I tried to examine a 'mmdf' style mailbox.
1744 It turns out that not enough memory was being allocated with
1745 calloc(), causing memory pointers to be overwritten and
1748 Fri Mar 03 16:07:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1750 * Changed the new "plussed_user" option to mts.conf's
1751 "masquerade:" to "username_extension" after getting feedback from
1752 qmail users, who use '-' as a separator rather than '+'. Removed
1753 checking of $USERPLUS variable. Now check $USERNAME_EXTENSION,
1754 which needs to include the appropriate separator for your MTA
1755 ('-', '+', or whatever) as its first character.
1757 Thu Mar 02 23:04:30 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1759 * Added a new "boolean" type to mh.h and TRUE and FALSE constants.
1761 * Added a note to DIFFERENCES stating that it's out-of-date
1762 (Richard was the last one to update it) and that we should
1763 consider only documenting incompatibilities with MH there.
1765 * Implemented (and documented) a third kind of username
1766 masquerading: "plussed user" masquerading. This one was suggested
1767 by Neil Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>. It's based on sendmail's
1768 "plussed user" feature, where mail sent to <user>+<string> will be
1769 delivered to <user>. When it's enabled, it's controlled by the
1770 $USERPLUS environment variable. How is it enabled? Well, that
1773 * Renamed the "mmailid:" setting in mts.conf to "masquerade:", and
1774 changed it so that rather than being a boolean, it can be set to
1775 any combination of the three values "draft_from", "mmailid", and
1776 "plussed_user". Thus it is now possible to enable the three types
1777 of masquerading individually.
1779 * Fixed a bug with "mmailid" masquerading (dating back to MH?)
1780 where if it was turned on, ','s would no longer be considered
1781 GECOS field delimiters.
1783 Wed Mar 01 23:30:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1785 * Changed the GECOS-field '&' translation behavior to be
1786 controlled by the BSD42 #define rather than GCOS_HACK, since it's
1787 apparently always appropriate on OSes where BSD42 is #defined, and
1788 never appropriate on any other OSes. Thanks to Kimmo Suominen for
1789 responding to my "What is this code here for?" comment in mts.c
1790 and explaining the feature.
1792 Mon Feb 28 21:50:29 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1794 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3+dev (ideally this should be
1795 done by whoever makes a release tar file, immediately after doing
1798 * Applied Paul Fox <pgf-spam@foxharp.boston.ma.us>'s scansbr.c
1799 patch, posted to comp.mail.mh, which he says prevents loss of mail
1800 when inc'ing into a full filesystem.
1802 * Changed "echo > stamp-h.in" in Makefile.in to "date > stamp-h.in"
1803 so that stamp-h.in will be different each time configure.in and
1804 related files are changed, making it easier to check it in (which
1805 is necessary to prevent unnecessary autoconf calls).
1807 * My declaration of initgroups() in slocal.c to eliminate the "no
1808 prototype" warning wasn't portable (FreeBSD 3.[23] choked). Now
1809 use AC_EGREP_HEADER to see where initgroups() is declared, if
1812 Sun Feb 20 12:17:15 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1814 * Fix security hole in mhshowsbr.c which allowed untrusted shell
1815 code to be executed.
1817 * Released nmh 1.0.3.
1819 Thu Feb 10 10:54:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1821 * Oops. %-escapes on mhstore lines in mhn.defaults.sh should not
1822 be surrounded by single quotes, as a shell is not spawned when
1823 just saving files, and the filenames will end up with literal
1824 quotes embedded in them.
1826 Fri Feb 04 12:29:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1828 * Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
1829 got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
1830 the -help output. One theory is that they were making reference
1831 to the fact that clearly you know about the -help option since
1832 you're currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea
1833 to overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
1834 supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
1837 The other theory is that because you can say something like
1838 "mhstore -" and get "mhstore: - ambiguous. It matches" followed
1839 by the same list of switches you get with -help, they were saying
1840 you can "sorta" abbreviate "-help" as "-". You don't get the
1841 "Usage:" string, though, so it's not really the same thing.
1843 Thu Feb 03 17:52:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1845 * Applied wesley.craig@umich.edu's KPOP patches. According to him:
1847 The following patch fixes a problem with requesting a
1848 service key for a machine that has multiple 'A' records. It
1849 also makes "-kpop" a command line option, for users who
1850 would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".
1852 Did no testing of the new features, as I don't have access to a
1855 * Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
1857 * Modified INSTALL and config.h.in to reflect the new -kpop feature.
1859 Fri Jan 28 17:39:24 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1861 * All %-escapes in mhn.defaults that actually expand to something
1862 should be surrounded by single quotes. Added quotes to the ones
1863 in mhn.defaults.sh that were missing them.
1865 * Added check for lynx to write mhshow-show-text/html line in
1868 Thu Jan 27 12:22:25 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1870 * makedir() had multiple bugs dating back to MH. An octal
1871 constant was apparently being interpreted as decimal, resulting in
1872 directories with no user read or execute permissions, making
1873 nested directory creation fail. And there wasn't even an
1874 _attempt_ to set desired permissions (e.g. from "Folder-Protect:"
1875 in .mh_profile) on the outer directories of a nested directory.
1877 * A second `make install' would always fail because the check for
1878 whether mh_profile.5 existed was written incorrectly.
1880 Wed Jan 26 02:22:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1882 * Added documentation on both types of masquerading to post's man
1885 Tue Jan 25 22:58:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1887 * Doug's portability fix of my setgid inc autodetection had a
1888 caching bug -- if you re-ran configure, uip/Makefile would be
1889 corrupted, and installation would bomb out on OSes where inc needs
1892 * Implemented a new kind of email address masquerading. Usually,
1893 when a user writes a custom "From:" header in a draft, nmh uses it
1894 rather than generating one. However, the user's true address is
1895 used in the SMTP envelope "From:" and is revealed in the "Sender:"
1896 header. Now, when mmailid is set to non-zero, the envelope
1897 "From:" uses the address specified in the draft "From:" header,
1898 and there is no "Sender:" header. This is useful when sending on
1899 behalf of a remote POP3 account or when remote mail robots
1900 incorrectly use the envelope "From:" in preference to the body
1901 "From:". This processing has only been implemented for post, not
1902 for the undocumented spost (which was already missing some "From:"
1903 processing that post has).
1905 Mon Jan 24 22:26:06 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1907 * Got rid of the rest of the gcc -Wall warnings that I didn't have
1908 time for on 1999-07-15 (and, it would seem, some new ones people
1909 introduced since then). The primary ones were the warnings that
1910 default prototypes were being used for [v]snprintf() and
1911 str[n]casecmp(). As of right now, there are _no_ compilation
1912 warnings except on dtimep.c-lexed (at least under AIX 4.1.5 and
1915 Sun Jan 2 23:42:18 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1917 * Move mhtest from bindir to libdir.
1919 * Move sendfiles from libdir to bindir.
1921 * Updated sendfiles manpage to reflect this change.
1923 * Added documentation for -build and -file switches to repl and
1924 forw manpages (patch from Peter Maydell).
1926 * Fixed interaction between specifying -cc in profile and -group on
1929 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1931 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
1932 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
1933 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
1936 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1938 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
1939 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
1940 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
1941 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
1942 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
1943 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).
1945 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1947 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
1949 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1951 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
1952 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
1953 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
1954 caught again. This works for now.
1956 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
1958 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1960 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
1961 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
1963 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1965 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
1966 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
1968 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
1970 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
1972 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1974 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
1975 changes. Both need more cleanup.
1977 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1979 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
1980 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
1981 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
1982 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
1983 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
1986 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1988 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
1989 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
1990 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
1992 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
1993 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
1996 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1998 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
1999 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
2000 to a directory on another device with more free space.
2002 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
2004 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
2005 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
2007 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
2009 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
2012 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
2013 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
2015 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
2016 macros, regardless of platform.
2018 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
2019 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
2021 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
2022 with x-conversions=gzip.
2024 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2026 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
2029 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
2030 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
2031 implicit definition of ioctl().
2033 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
2034 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
2035 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
2036 want to mess with them.
2038 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2040 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
2041 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
2043 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
2044 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
2046 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
2047 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
2048 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
2050 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
2051 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
2052 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
2054 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
2055 function initgroups.
2057 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
2060 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
2061 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
2064 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
2065 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
2068 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
2069 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
2073 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2075 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
2076 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
2077 preventing compilation on at least linux.
2079 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
2080 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
2082 Thu Sep 09 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2084 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
2086 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
2087 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
2088 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
2089 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
2091 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
2092 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
2094 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
2096 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
2098 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
2100 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
2101 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
2103 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
2105 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
2106 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
2108 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
2109 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
2110 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
2111 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
2113 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
2114 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
2116 Sat Jun 09 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2118 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
2119 substitute it for mktemp if available.
2121 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2123 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
2124 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
2127 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
2129 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
2131 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
2133 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
2134 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
2136 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
2137 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
2138 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
2140 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
2141 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
2142 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
2144 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
2145 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
2146 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
2148 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
2149 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
2152 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
2153 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
2155 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
2156 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
2158 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
2159 <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
2161 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
2162 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
2163 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
2165 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
2166 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
2168 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
2169 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
2170 <elleron@servtech.com>.
2172 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
2173 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
2176 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
2177 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
2179 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
2180 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
2181 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
2182 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
2184 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
2185 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
2187 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2191 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
2192 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
2193 would not be changed.
2195 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
2196 one from the Apache web server.
2198 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
2199 (this should have been done a long time ago).
2201 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
2202 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
2203 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
2205 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
2207 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
2209 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
2210 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
2213 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
2214 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
2215 removes a bad race condition.
2217 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
2220 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
2221 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
2222 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
2224 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
2225 sequence information.
2227 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
2228 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
2230 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
2233 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
2236 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
2238 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
2239 interpret 034 as octal.
2241 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
2243 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
2244 mhstore, and mhbuild.
2246 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
2247 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
2249 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
2250 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
2252 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
2253 in the c_cefile structure when building.
2255 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
2256 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
2258 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
2259 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
2260 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
2262 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
2263 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
2264 and mhshow. Updated man pages
2266 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
2268 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
2270 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
2271 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
2274 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
2276 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
2277 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
2279 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
2280 header field information.
2282 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
2283 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
2285 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
2286 values when parsing a content.
2288 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
2289 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
2291 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
2292 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
2294 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
2295 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
2297 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
2298 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
2300 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
2302 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
2304 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
2306 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
2308 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
2309 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
2312 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
2313 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
2315 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
2316 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
2317 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
2318 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
2319 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
2320 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
2323 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
2325 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
2326 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
2327 buffer length checks for this parameter.
2329 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
2330 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
2332 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
2334 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
2335 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
2336 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
2337 of the limits on the length of command lines.
2339 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
2340 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
2343 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
2344 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
2345 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
2346 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
2349 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2351 * Released nmh-0.27.
2353 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
2354 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
2356 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
2357 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
2358 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
2359 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
2362 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
2363 mhbuild returns an error.
2365 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
2366 rename the draft file.
2368 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
2369 use a global variable.
2371 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
2372 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
2374 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
2375 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
2377 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
2378 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
2379 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
2381 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
2382 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
2384 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
2385 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
2388 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
2389 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
2392 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
2393 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
2395 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
2396 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
2397 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
2399 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
2400 to new function output_content_folder.
2402 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
2403 new function output_content_file.
2405 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
2406 to new function parse_format_string.
2408 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
2409 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
2410 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
2411 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
2413 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
2414 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
2415 message/external file from ftp.
2417 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
2418 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
2419 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
2421 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
2422 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
2425 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
2428 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
2429 new file mhstoresbr.c
2431 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
2434 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
2435 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
2437 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
2438 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
2440 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
2441 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
2442 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
2444 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
2446 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
2448 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
2449 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
2452 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
2453 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
2455 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
2458 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
2460 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2462 * Released nmh-0.26.
2464 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
2465 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
2466 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
2467 is still the same (dashstuffing).
2469 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
2470 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
2471 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
2472 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
2473 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
2475 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
2476 But it is not on by default.
2478 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
2479 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
2481 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
2483 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
2485 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
2487 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
2489 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
2490 number of the "cur" message when packing.
2492 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2494 * Released nmh-0.25.
2496 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
2497 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
2498 uses the original name of the library.
2500 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
2501 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
2504 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
2505 list_content and list_debug.
2507 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
2509 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
2510 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.
2512 1998-02-27 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2514 * Released nmh-0.24.
2516 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
2518 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
2519 are given, that order doesn't matter.
2521 * Fix bug in seq_list.c when realloc'ing for
2522 large sequence line.
2524 1998-02-23 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2526 * Released nmh-0.23.
2528 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
2530 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
2531 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan
2532 content, decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary
2533 string). I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
2535 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
2536 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
2539 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
2541 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
2543 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
2545 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
2546 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
2548 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
2549 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.
2551 * Add note to MACHINES file that on Linux, configure
2552 doesn't find the functions sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
2554 * Fix configuration for machines that don't have (or find)
2555 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
2557 1998-02-11 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2559 * Released nmh-0.22.
2561 * Add a configure check for sigsetjmp. Add some conditional
2562 #define's in h/signals.h in case it's not found.
2564 * Added additional notes about -auto switch in mhn man page.
2566 * Added note about MM_CHARSET environment variable to
2567 mh-profile(5) man page.
2569 * Fix signal problem in mhn.c (change setjmp/longjmp to
2570 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp).
2572 1998-02-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2574 * Released nmh-0.22-pre1.
2576 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
2577 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
2579 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
2581 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
2582 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
2583 entry point for parsing MIME files.
2585 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
2586 source message on the standard input.
2588 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
2590 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
2591 rather than -rfc934mode.
2593 * Fix mhbuild, so that Content-Description and RFC-822 comments
2594 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
2597 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
2598 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).
2600 * Restore HP specific code to zotnet/tws/lexstring.c. Apparently
2603 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2605 * Released nmh-0.21.
2607 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
2608 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.
2610 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what transfer
2613 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what character set
2614 to use for text contents.
2616 * Removed old hpux specific code from zotnet/tws/lexstring.c
2618 1998-02-02 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2620 * Released nmh-0.21-pre2.
2622 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
2624 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
2625 header fields as per RFC-2047.
2627 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
2628 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
2629 spaces between encoded word are.
2631 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
2633 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
2634 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
2636 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
2637 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
2638 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
2640 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
2642 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
2643 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
2645 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.
2647 * Added support for %(decode) to fmtdump.c.
2649 * check_charset() now accepts US-ASCII as a subset of any
2650 ISO-8859-X character set.
2652 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
2655 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
2656 permissions, not write permissions.
2658 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
2659 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
2661 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
2664 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2666 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
2668 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
2669 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
2671 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
2672 message contains valid character set.
2674 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
2675 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
2677 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
2678 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
2680 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
2681 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
2682 between an encoded word and normal text.
2684 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
2685 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
2687 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
2688 as a RFC-2047 header field.
2690 * The command install-mh now recognizes the switches -version
2693 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
2694 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
2697 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
2698 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
2700 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
2701 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
2703 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
2705 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2707 * Released nmh-0.20.
2709 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
2711 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.
2713 * Changed the default format file for mhl (mhl.format) to
2714 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
2715 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
2717 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
2718 and the To: line was missing.
2720 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
2722 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2724 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
2726 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
2727 watch the POP transaction.
2729 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
2730 first, and use it if available.
2732 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
2733 first, and use it if available.
2735 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2737 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
2739 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
2740 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
2741 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
2744 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
2745 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
2746 returns the state FLDPLUS.
2748 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
2749 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
2752 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
2754 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
2755 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
2757 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
2759 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
2760 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
2762 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
2763 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
2764 message to which you are replying.
2766 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
2767 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
2768 making group replies.
2770 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
2772 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2774 * Released nmh-0.19.
2776 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
2777 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
2779 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
2780 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
2781 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
2782 to the end of the man page.
2784 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
2785 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
2786 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
2787 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
2788 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
2789 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
2791 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
2794 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
2795 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
2796 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
2798 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
2799 the next available number above the message number you wish
2802 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
2803 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
2805 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
2806 file sbr/seq_print.c
2808 * flist will now update the current folder.
2810 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
2811 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
2812 but now undocumented.
2814 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
2817 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
2818 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
2820 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
2822 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
2823 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
2825 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2827 * Released nmh-0.18.
2829 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
2830 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
2831 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
2833 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
2834 retains the public/private status of sequences.
2836 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
2837 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
2838 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
2839 previous public/private status.
2841 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
2844 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
2847 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
2848 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
2849 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
2851 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
2852 take option to determine whether it should get current
2853 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
2854 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
2856 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
2858 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
2859 wait for stopped processes.
2861 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
2862 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
2864 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2866 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
2868 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
2869 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
2871 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
2872 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
2874 * Change the way that memory for message status is
2875 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
2876 the folder/message structure. This required changing
2877 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
2879 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
2882 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
2885 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
2887 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
2888 the debugging output.
2890 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
2891 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
2893 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2895 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
2897 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
2898 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
2900 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
2902 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
2903 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
2904 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
2905 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
2906 in the given sequence.
2908 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
2909 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
2910 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
2911 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
2912 subdirectories of a given directory.
2914 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
2915 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
2916 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
2918 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
2919 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
2921 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
2923 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
2926 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
2927 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
2928 fields are now calculated at runtime.
2930 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
2931 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
2932 are calculated at runtime.
2934 Sun Nov 30 19:14:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2936 * Released nmh-0.18-pre2.
2938 * Add paragraph to man page for install-mh and to INSTALL file
2939 about checking for global mh.profile.
2941 * Renamed m_find() to context_find().
2942 Renamed m_replace() to context_replace().
2943 Renamed m_delete() to context_del().
2944 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
2945 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
2946 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
2948 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
2949 adding message to folder itself.
2951 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
2952 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
2953 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
2956 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
2957 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
2960 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
2961 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
2962 is the same as the direct smtp code).
2964 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
2965 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
2967 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
2968 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
2969 code to use it yet).
2971 Thu Nov 13 18:42:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2973 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.
2975 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never
2976 called with a value larger than 30 mintues.
2978 * Fixed race condition in rmm and refile, so that
2979 context is updated before external rmmproc is called.
2981 * Removed all the OVERHEAD code.
2983 * Move code to add message to folder from refile.c
2986 Fri Jul 25 19:39:29 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2988 * Did some rearranging of the internals of inc.c.
2990 * Make -inplace the default for anno, forw, dist, and repl.
2992 * Changed --enable-smtp to --with-mts={smtp,sendmail}
2994 * Created new directory mts/sendmail for direct sendmail
2995 interface (although it currently still uses SMTP).
2997 * Removed all the TMA (trusted mail agent) code
2999 * Removed all the TTYD (terminal access daemon) code
3001 * Removed all the MF (uucp filtering) code.
3003 * Removed all the code for BERK.
3005 * Removed all the code for stand-alone delivery (MHMTS).
3007 * Split the file mts/sendmail/smail.c into sendmail.c and
3008 smtp.c. Changed the name of the directory to mts/smtp.
3010 * Changed autoconf to use @sysconfdir@ for location of
3011 configuration files.
3013 * Changed #define in mhn.c from FTP to BUILTIN_FTP.
3015 Mon Jul 21 03:22:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3017 * Released nmh-0.17.
3019 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
3021 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
3022 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
3024 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
3027 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
3028 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
3030 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
3031 number of refiled message.
3033 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
3035 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
3036 for return value of wait().
3038 * Change configure to also check /bin for "more".
3040 Sat Jul 12 00:02:23 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3042 * Released nmh-0.16.
3044 Mon Jun 23 20:13:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3046 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
3048 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
3049 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
3050 deal with binary messages, yet).
3052 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
3054 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
3056 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
3057 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
3058 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
3059 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
3060 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
3061 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
3063 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
3064 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
3066 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
3067 From MH-6.8.4 patch.
3069 * Fix double free of ctinfo in user_content when using
3070 #forw with single message. From John MacMillan (and
3073 * Changed -mhnproc switch for show, to -showmimeproc.
3075 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".
3077 * Added "mime" option to "whatnow", which calls the program
3078 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
3081 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
3084 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
3086 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
3087 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
3088 which used unsigned chars by default.
3090 Sat Jun 21 01:21:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3092 * Released nmh-0.15.
3094 * Added new form "scan.unseen" to distribution. It marks messages

3097 * Do some rearranging of date/time code in zotnet/tws/dtime.c
3099 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
3101 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
3104 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
3105 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
3106 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
3108 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
3109 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
3111 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
3113 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
3114 they conflict with defines on AIX.
3116 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
3117 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
3118 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
3119 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
3121 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
3122 and put in own subroutine.
3124 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
3125 and put in own subroutine.
3127 * Moved code to remove messages from folder into own
3128 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and
3129 refile.c to use new routine.
3131 Fri May 16 06:09:31 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3133 * Renamed m_seqok to seq_nameok.
3135 * Changed m_setunseen, msh, mshcmds, flist, and scan to use
3138 * Changed m_seqflag to return the number of a sequence rather
3139 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
3140 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
3142 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
3145 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before
3146 adding message to sequence.
3148 * Renamed function m_setvis to m_setunseen, and renamed
3149 corresponding file in sbr.
3151 * Renamed function m_setseq to m_setprev, and renamed corresponding
3154 * Changed mark.c and pick.c to use m_seqaddsel and m_seqdelsel.
3156 * Added new function m_seqdelsel to m_seqdel.c, which deletes
3157 all selected messages from a sequence.
3159 * Added new function m_seqaddsel to m_seqadd.c, which adds all
3160 selected messages to a sequence.
3162 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,
3165 Thu May 15 00:53:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3167 * Renamed function pack_folder to m_packfolder, and moved it
3168 from uip/folder.c into its own file sbr/m_packfolder.c
3170 Wed May 14 23:38:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3172 * Changed function m_gmsg to m_readfolder. Renamed file
3173 sbr/m_gmsg.c to sbr/m_readfolder.c.
3175 Mon May 5 19:57:11 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3177 * Expanded rcvtty man page, and added small patch from
3178 MH-6.8.4 distribution.

3182 * Released nmh-0.14.
3184 * Comment out configure test and code for tgetent to allocate its
3185 own termcap buffer when passed a NULL argument.
3187 Sat Apr 26 03:46:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3189 * Added new options `-checkmime', `-nocheckmime', and `-mhnproc'
3190 to show. Restructured code to handle options to various
3191 `procs' better. Deprecated `-noshowproc' option and NOMHNPROC
3192 environment variable.
3194 * Added new man page `mh-draft' which documents the
3195 draft folder facility in nmh.
3197 * Renamed fmtsbr.h to fmt_scan.h. Renamed fmtcompile.h
3200 * split fmtsbr.c into fmt_scan.c and fmt_new.c. Renamed

3204 * `send -help' wasn't showing the -(no)mime and -split
3207 Fri Apr 25 02:50:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3209 * Released nmh-0.13.
3211 * Changed mhpath so it doesn't abort if a message sequence
3212 such as "mhpath all" expands to more than 1000 messages.
3213 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
3214 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
3217 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
3218 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
3220 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3222 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if
3223 necessary. So `folders' can now handle more than 300 folders.
3225 Tue Apr 22 14:01:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3227 * Change configure to use a compile check to see if the tm struct
3228 has tm_gmtoff, rather than using egrep.
3230 Mon Apr 21 02:19:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3232 * Released nmh-0.12.
3234 * Had set_exists and unset_exists macros backwards.
3236 * Released nmh-0.11.
3238 Thu Apr 10 02:39:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3240 * Added documentation to mh-profile.man about the various
3241 `procs' (mhlproc, showproc, lproc, etc...).
3243 * Replace the bit twiddling for SELECTED, UNSEEN, and
3244 mp->attrstats with macros.
3246 * If system doesn't have SIGEMT (like Linux), then use SIGTERM
3249 * Change fstat to stat in m_gmsg.c since Linux wants
3252 * Merge Linux patch sent in by Michel Oosterhof (original
3253 patch from bsa@kf8nh.wariat.org).
3255 * Document an undocumented MH feature. mhn -form mhl.null
3256 will suppress the display of the message header.
3258 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
3260 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c
3261 and mshcmds.c, rather than hard coding in /bin/cat.
3263 * Add mhnproc to the list of `procs' in mh-profile.man.
3265 * Add configure test for lorder and tsort commands.
3267 * Commented out the padding in the `msgs` struct in h/mh.h
3269 * Change m_gmsg.c to allocate elements to the `info' array by
3270 500 elements at a time (rather than MAXFOLDERS / 5).
3272 * Add note to man page for mhmail that zero length messages are
3273 not sent. Need to use -body "" to send empty messages.
3275 * zotnet/mts/mts.c : compare character with '\0', not NULL.
3277 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
3279 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
3280 folder/message structure when done with folder.
3282 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is
3283 defined even if message is missing "From " line.
3285 Mon Mar 31 03:37:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3287 * Released nmh-0.10.

3294 Thu Mar 20 03:21:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3296 * Reversed previous decision to retain "From " lines in slocal.
3297 The "From " line is now removed from all messages.
3299 * inc now saves the date from the "From " envelope in the
3300 Delivery-Date header for all messages.
3302 * sbr/m_getfld.c: Clean up processing of Return-Path and
3303 Delivery-Date from the "From " envelope.
3305 Mon Mar 17 19:03:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3307 * client.c: cast iaddr to int before comparing return value
3308 of inet_addr with NOTOK.
3310 Tue Mar 11 04:38:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3312 * Grep test for signal names was failing on some OS'es because
3313 of missing tabs in regex.
3315 Sat Mar 8 01:58:22 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3317 * Released nmh-0.09.
3319 * Move config files and format files to *.old before installing.
3321 * Add configure check for killpg.
3323 * msh.c: include <termios.h> instead of <termio.h> and
3326 * prompter.c: don't include <sys/ioctl.h> anymore.
3328 Thu Mar 6 04:03:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3330 * Added `-mime' and `-nomime' options to `repl'.
3333 Tue Mar 4 03:10:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3335 * ruserpass.c : removed conflicting prototypes.
3337 * rcvtty.c : Fixed rcvtty to obey terminal permissions granted
3338 by `mesg' command. Previously only worked on BSD machines.
3340 Mon Mar 3 00:18:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3342 * rcvtty.c : Changed to use #define UTMP_FILE (if exists) rather
3343 than hard coded "/etc/utmp".
3345 * Released nmh-0.08.
3347 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
3348 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of
3349 locking database itself.
3351 Thu Feb 27 05:28:09 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3353 * Added slocal action `mmdf' to deliver to a file in mmdf format.
3355 * Changed the slocal actions `file' and `>' to always deliver in
3356 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
3359 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
3360 rather than mmdf format.
3362 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
3363 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
3364 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
3365 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
3367 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
3369 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3371 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
3374 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
3375 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
3376 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
3378 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
3379 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
3380 rcvpack so you can choose the preferred format.
3382 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3384 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
3385 can still easily change this in config.h).
3387 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
3388 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
3389 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
3391 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3393 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather
3394 than tzset and external timezone variable.
3396 Thu Feb 13 00:35:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3398 * Fixed typo in ruserpass.c in the variable toktabs.
3400 * When ruserpass was added to LIBOBJS, it was missing
3403 * Released nmh-0.07.
3405 Tue Feb 11 01:29:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3407 * Add check to configure, so that if ruserpass, or _ruserpass
3408 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
3410 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
3411 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
3414 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
3415 built-in FTP client in mhn.
3417 * Added configure check for ushort and ulong. Change code
3418 to use ushort/ulong rather than u_short/u_long.
3420 * A couple of small cleanups in locking code.
3422 * Added configure check for gmtoff element in struct tm.
3424 * Added configure check for tzset.
3426 Fri Feb 7 03:01:57 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3428 * Released nmh-0.06.
3430 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
3431 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
3433 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
3434 many such machines around anymore.
3436 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
3437 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
3439 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
3440 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
3442 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3444 * Check lex generated file in zotnet/tws and use
3445 pre-generated version if necessary.
3447 * Released nmh-0.05.
3449 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
3450 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
3451 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
3452 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
3454 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
3455 be linked in one pass.
3457 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3459 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
3460 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
3462 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3464 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
3466 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3468 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
3469 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
3470 become the current folder.
3472 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3474 * Released nmh-0.04.
3476 * Define ospeed and PC in termsbr.c is OS doesn't have
3479 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3481 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
3482 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
3483 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
3485 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3487 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
3488 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
3490 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3492 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
3493 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
3496 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
3497 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
3499 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3501 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
3502 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
3503 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
3504 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
3505 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
3506 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
3508 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3510 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
3511 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
3513 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
3514 a file (currently need to specify full path).
3516 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3518 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
3519 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
3521 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3523 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
3524 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
3525 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
3527 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3529 * Released nmh-0.03.
3531 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
3532 .mh_sequence file existed.
3534 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
3535 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
3537 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
3538 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
3541 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3543 * Changed flist option -unseen to -[no]all. Cleaned up
3546 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3548 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
3549 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
3550 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
3552 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3554 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
3555 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
3556 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
3558 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3560 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL
3561 and allocate its own buffer. Borrowed from zsh.
3563 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
3565 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3567 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
3568 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
3569 directory from where the source code is located.
3571 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3573 * Released nmh-0.02.
3575 Wed Jan 1 17:41:52 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3577 * Split mhook man page into man pages for rcvdist, rcvpack,
3580 Tue Dec 31 03:07:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3582 * Changed code to use strerror, rather than using sys_errlist
3583 and sys_nerr directly.
3585 Mon Dec 30 02:15:25 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3587 * -compat switch from install-mh removed.
3589 * Changed the default POP port from "pop" to "pop3".
3591 Sat Dec 28 13:25:05 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3593 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
3594 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
3595 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
3596 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
3597 rather than in script.
3599 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3601 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
3603 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with
3604 macro defined on Solaris.
3606 Thu Dec 26 02:50:15 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3608 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
3609 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
3611 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
3612 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
3613 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
3614 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
3617 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3619 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
3620 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.
3622 * Fixed configure test so that termcap variable ospeed is
3625 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3627 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
3629 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included
3630 in mhn.c. Changed md5 to use memset and memcpy.
3632 Fri Dec 20 02:29:37 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3634 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
3635 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
3637 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3639 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
3640 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
3641 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
3642 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
3643 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
3644 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
3646 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3648 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
3650 * Released nmh-0.01.
3652 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
3653 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
3654 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
3657 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3659 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
3662 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3664 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
3665 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
3667 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3669 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
3670 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
3671 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
3672 script to find_program.
3674 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3676 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
3677 speed up -recurse option.
3679 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
3680 yet, but it compiles :-)
3682 * Changed default location for install to
3683 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
3684 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
3685 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
3688 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
3689 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
3690 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
