3 * Ken Hornstein's configure.in Cyrus SASL checks were doing
4 `x"$with_cyrus_sasl" != "no"' instead of `... != x"no"'.
6 Tue Mar 06 21:04:27 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
8 * Found some historical information about MH in RFC 808.
9 Supplemented it with info from Jerry Peek's MH book and added it
12 Tue Feb 6 20:35:40 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
14 * sbr/dtime.c Use the same Y2K correction code as dtimep.lex
16 * sbr/dtimep.lex Restrict the parser to accept either
17 a numerical timezone offset, or a symbolic one (e.g. EST),
18 but not both (Since "2000 -400 EDT" might cause a double
19 subtraction of 60 minutes if both are parsed. One should be
22 Mon Feb 05 20:22:54 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
24 * -L isn't sufficient for specifying the path of the Cyrus SASL
25 shared library. That'll allow us to link successfully, but on
26 many/most OSes that won't allow us to find libsasl at runtime. On
27 Solaris, we need to specify the library path with -R as well (or
28 else the user will have to use the $LD_LIBRARY_PATH kludge, which
29 is considered harmful). This fix should be extended to other OSes
32 * Print whether we have SASL support in the "nmh configuration"
33 summary configure prints out.
35 * Say in README.developers to use `\date' in case anyone is like
36 me and has `date' aliased in their shell to use a nonstandard (but
37 subjectively more readable) format.
39 Thu Jan 25 21:15:52 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
41 * man/mh-chart.man has updated synposes of
44 Tue Jan 23 20:26:15 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
46 * etc/digestcomps tried to force dates into a
47 19xx when it's not necessary.
49 Fri Jan 19 21:22:08 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
51 * First round of manpage updates finished. They
52 are standardized on -man macros, with minimal
55 * man/tmac.h.in is no longer needed, since the
56 manpages do not depend on them anymore. Note:
57 strict "man" programs that didn't allow ".so"
58 sourcing outside the man tree will now format
59 the man pages correctly.
61 * man/vmh.1 is no longer built, since uip/vmh isn't
63 Tue Jan 9 6:01:22 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
65 * Finished manpages ali-prev
67 * Removed deprecated files from the repository.
68 Specifically, those rooted in zotnet/ and mts/sendmail
69 mts/mmdf. "cvs update -dP" will give a pruned directory
72 * Updated docs/Makefile.in to include README.manpages, and
73 uip/Makefile.in to include popi.c (which isn't being built,
74 though). This allows "make nmhdist" to create an archive that
75 is file-for-file identical to the current cvs repository.
77 Sun Dec 31 20:48:50 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
79 * Create docs/README.manpages, which details
80 the formatting rules I've been using.
84 Sat Dec 30 9:50:13 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
86 * Created a new file "DATE" to hold the date
87 of the most recent nmh release. This date will be
90 * Updated docs/README.developers to add the step
91 of updating DATE. Also, updated configure to
92 read in the contents of the file as the variable
95 * Started work on updating man pages, with only
96 ali finished so far. Changes: 1) no dependence
97 on an external macro file, 2) uses only
98 -man macros (although I may be mistaken in this),
99 3) syntax in the SYNOPSIS is a little more
100 in line with standard UNIX documentation, such as
101 bold flags and italicized parameters.
103 Sun Dec 24 10:06:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
105 * Updated INSTALL with information about the
106 --with-locking option.
108 * Fixed the Hesiod tests in configure.in. In
109 systems where res_send was in -lresolv, this
110 information was not being communicated to the
111 HESIOD_LIBS var. Now, if res_send is not found
112 in the default libraries, it's assumed to be
113 in -lresolv, and thus -lresolv is appended to
114 HESIOD_LIBS, which will need that to avoid
115 undefined symbols problems.
117 * Fixed the Kerberos tests in configure.in. New
118 versions of Kerberos 5 have renamed -lcrypto
119 to -lk5crypto (circa krb5 1.1 or thereabouts). The
120 new test tries to determine if -lk5crypto exists. If so,
121 this is a new krb5 system. If not, test for -lcrypto
122 and the rest of old krb5. If that fails, look
123 for a genuine krb4 installation.
125 Fri Dec 22 22:08:51 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
127 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in msgchk.man.
128 -snoop was documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
130 Fri Dec 22 23:42:16 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
132 * Made a new ./configure option called
133 "--with-locking" that allows the file
134 locking mechanism to be chosen there instead of
135 requiring a manual edit of config.h.
137 * If the option is not explicitly set, or an
138 invalid option is specified, "dot" locking is
139 chosen. Valid options are "dot", "fcntl",
140 "flock", and "lockf". We need a way to tell
141 the user that these are the valid options, and
142 change the flag "--with-locking" if it's not
145 Fri Dec 22 19:21:29 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
147 * Remove the lex-specific memory hints at the
148 beginning of sbr/dtimep.lex. We've already
149 committed to supporting flex only, since
150 lex does not easily allow us to parse a single
151 string, as well as other problems documented
152 below and on nmh-workers.
154 * Added a switch statement to configure.in to
155 test for Mac OS X. If this is the case, LDFLAGS
156 should not contain "-s" since the linker rejects
159 * Updated MACHINES to include Mac OS X Public Beta,
160 as well as Linux 2.4 running glibc 2.2.
162 Wed Dec 20 16:00:46 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
164 * Marked deprecated directories in docs/README.developers
165 as deprecated, with pointers to the new code location.
166 Eventually these deprecated directories should go away.
168 Tue Dec 19 19:16:37 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
170 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in inc.man. -snoop was
171 documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
173 Thu Dec 14 14:32:09 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
175 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
176 versions on ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/config, dated
177 12-07-00. This should prevent configure from failing
178 on newer operating systems because config.{guess,sub}
179 couldn't correctly identify them.
181 Thu Dec 14 1:30:44 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
183 * Fixed the circular dependency created when I moved
184 zotnet/mts to mts/generic and merged them into libmts.
185 mts/generic/client.c and mts/generic/mts.c are now in sbr/
186 (and thus in libmh), which makes libmh self-contained and
187 not depending on an external archive.
189 * All include statements now look for mts.h in h/. The
190 Makefiles and configure script have been modified so that
191 mts/generic is no longer built.
193 Mon Dec 11 22:08:07 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
195 * When Shantonu made the new libmts.a, he swapped $(MTSLIB) and
196 libmh.a in sbr/Makefile.in so that libmh.a comes first, but this
197 causes the build to fail on Solaris, because libmts.a has to get
198 ruserpass() out of libmh.a. Swapping them back to the way Ken
199 Hornstein's patch (which I applied on Jul 20) put them, with
200 libmh.a correctly coming second. If there are times when libmts.a
201 needs to come second, then it would appear there's a circular
202 dependency and someone (Shantonu?) did an mts merge incorrectly.
204 Fri Sep 8 01:36:23 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
206 * Took out bad time textual time zones like BST and JST.
207 I found them online somewhere, but am not sure if they're
210 Fri Sep 8 00:36:48 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
212 * Moved zotnet/mts to mts/generic. This code reorganization
213 makes the entire zotnet tree deprecated -- bboards is unneeded,
214 mf was was moved to sbr, tws was rewritten and moved to sbr, and
217 * Created a new static library called libmts.a used during
218 compilation which includes the generic mts code and the
219 smtp/sendmail code. This supercedes the functionality of the
220 old libsmtp.a and the remains of libzot.a.
222 * Updated header includes to reference the new location of mts.h
223 in mts/generic/mts.h. Also, update the configure and top-level
224 Makefile not to descend into zotnet. Also, they don't descend
225 into mts/mmdf and mts/sendmail (the sendmail code has been
226 merged into the smtp code).
228 * Added #include <h/nmh.h> to h/md5.h, since my compile was
229 complaining about implicitly-declared memcpy and memset, which
230 appear to be in strings.h. In any event, nmh.h should take care
233 * When doing a "make nmhdist", notice that the generated
234 snapshot does not include zotnet of the mts directories as noted
235 above. Since they are no longer compiled, and I don't see any
236 obvious code path to get to them, end-users should probably
237 not need them. If you think otherwise, turn Makefile generation
238 back on in configure.in and turn on recursion into those dirs
239 in the appropriate Makefile.in
241 Wed Sep 6 22:40:03 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
243 * Tracked down the problem in the new dtimep where time
244 zones were being radically misreported. It was because the
245 parser knew about military time zones (such as M or E) but in
246 some cases did not know about the textual representation of
247 some zones (like MET). When it encountered one of these, the
248 date parser misread MET as the military time zone T (well, first
249 zone M, then E, and finally T). I took military zones out, and
250 things seem much better. Also, the default behavior of parsing
251 time zones appears to default to GMT in the absence of better
252 info, which is less bogus than assuming the mail came from the
253 current time zone, which was the behavior in 1.04.
255 Thu Aug 10 13:22:13 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
257 * Decided that limiting the message number columns to 3 on my
258 scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD (to try to regain space taken by
259 extra date info) was ill-conceived. It's not that tough to get
260 past 999 messages, though I imagine it's rather rare to exceed
261 9999. Changed these to 4. Also put the "replied / encrypted"
262 column back in YYYYMMDD -- I've never seen it show anything but a
263 space, but that space is useful if you use scan, grep, and awk
264 (with the default field separator) to grab message numbers (I know
265 -- pick should really be used for these purposes...).
267 Mon Aug 7 20:11:09 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
269 * Modify umask set by mhshow to enable user execute bit, so that
270 viewers that create temporary directories (e.g., lynx) will be
273 Thu Aug 03 17:14:08 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
275 * TODO: Allow multiple simultaneous differing contexts, probably
276 each tied to a parent (terminal) process.
278 Tue Aug 1 10:48:05 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
280 * Makefile install rules should not look for generated files in
281 the source tree -- this will happen to work when configuring and
282 building inside the source tree but will fail when using an
283 external build tree. Fixed etc/Makefile.in.
285 Mon Jul 24 16:20:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
287 * When Shantonu wrote the new, more portable dtimep.lex, he left
288 out the #ifdef DSTXXX stuff for some reason. Not a good idea, as
289 that code is required for proper printing of numeric-offset
290 timezones that have daylight saving time. Without that code,
291 -0700 during DST gets printed as MST instead of PDT.
293 * Renamed DSTXXX as ADJUST_NUMERIC_ONLY_TZ_OFFSETS_WRT_DST and
294 added an explanatory comment by its #definition.
296 * Updated README.developers with the fact that zotnet/tws is going away.
298 Thu Jul 20 20:30:52 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
300 * Moved Kimmo's new "--with-hash-backup" to be output with the
301 rest of the --with options in the configure --help output. Also,
302 people did not preserve my alphabetization of the --with options
303 when they added new ones. Re-alphabetized.
305 * One more pass at README.developers now that it's clear that my
306 previously-suggested one-line autoconf-file commit can cause
307 unnecessary local makes and an out-of-sync stamp-h.in file, but
308 would not cause problems for other people using the CVS files.
310 * Ken Hornstein's SASL patch was not integrated properly with
311 Ruud's new merged mts/sendmail code. Kimmo has since fixed nmh so
312 it compiles, but according to Ken, the SASL stuff still does not
313 work. Integrating a patch from him for this.
315 * Last pass at README.developers -- Kimmo's 5-step commit was
316 overkill. You only need 3 steps, since configure.in is the only
317 autoconf file with the RCS $Id keyword.
319 * Applied Kurt J. Lidl <lidl@eng.us.uu.net>'s $MAILHOST patch:
321 I have a small patch that would be nice to be included --
322 basically, it allows the usage of the "MAILHOST" environment
323 variable, without having to have HESIOD turned on. I need
324 this functionality for my environment, where we have identical
325 /usr/local on all my machines (so I cannot just hardcode into
326 the mts.conf file), and I have multiple POP mail servers for
329 Modified inc.man to reflect that along with "pophost:" and -host,
330 $MAILHOST can now activate POP mail inclusion as well.
332 * Fixed warnings from diff on first-time install of nmh. Also
333 added 'echo's clarifying the etc file installation activities.
335 Tue Jul 18 19:36:59 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
337 * Added the answer to Dan's question in README.developers.
339 Mon Jul 17 19:10:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
341 * Clarified and made some corrections to Kimmo's README.developers
342 changes (BTW, if anyone can explain why the RCS Ids are able to cause
343 problems with the dependencies, please fill in the explanation --
344 I never encountered a problem with the old single-commit method).
346 Sat Jul 15 23:13:49 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
348 * Add configure option --with-hash-backup so the backup prefix can
349 be easily changed from "," to "#".
351 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that it works with any make.
353 * Use mkstemp in sbr/lock_file.c.
355 * Commits of autoconf-related files apparently can't all be done
356 in one shot due to RCS Ids changing when committing -- updated
359 Tue Jul 11 14:18:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
361 * Clarified post.man and send.man for those not completely up on
362 SASL terminology. "SASL encryption layers are not supported for
363 SMTP" means that encryption is supported for the authentication
364 but not for the subsequent data stream.
366 Sat Jul 8 01:36:19 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
368 * Applied Ken Hornstein <kenh@cmf.nrl.navy.mil>'s patches
369 implementing SASL support for POP3 and SMTP. If nmh is compiled
370 with SASL support, using the -sasl switch on the inc, msgchk,
371 post, and send commands will enable authentication encryption for
372 SMTP, and both authentication and data stream encryption for POP3.
374 Sat Jun 10 18:37:59 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
376 * Merged mts/sendmail functionality into mts/smtp; switching between
377 smtp and sendmail delivery method is now controlled by mts.conf.
379 * If tsort cannot deal with loops, in addition to defining tsort as
380 cat, also define lorder as echo.
382 * Removed uip/popi.c from list of sources.
384 Thu Jun 08 19:36:57 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
386 * New dtimep.lex didn't parse day names properly. Fixed. Also
387 clarified ambiguous comments preceding day_map[] array (from old
388 dtimep.lex) that probably led to the erroneous cp++ being added.
390 Wed Jun 7 20:52:33 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
392 * Added one more mkstemp invocation to uip/spost.c (which was in a
395 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to clean up permissions handling
396 and error handling in uip/inc.c.
398 Mon Jun 5 22:10:07 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
400 * Use cat instead of tsort if tsort cannot deal with loops in its
401 input (which is the case for tsort from GNU textutils).
403 Mon Jun 5 21:14:36 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
405 * If lockfile is present, and its dotlockfile program is setgid,
406 inc does not need to be setgid.
408 Sun Jun 4 21:35:40 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
410 * Added autoconf test for Miquel van Smoorenburg's liblockfile
411 library, as found on Debian systems.
413 * Added liblockfile support to sbr/lock_file.c.
415 Wed May 31 7:19:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
417 * Fixed up dtimep.lex a bit. Added back memory options for AIX to
418 increase available memory. Took out %option noyywrap, which
419 wasn't understood by AT&T lex, as well as the -i
420 case-insensitivity flag.
422 Wed May 31 07:40:45 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
424 * Added a lint target to the Makefiles and a check in autoconf
425 to determine whether lint or lclint exists on the system.
427 Fri May 30 19:21:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
429 * etc/Makefile.in was incorrectly installing mts.conf.in and
430 sendfiles.in -- fixed. Generated sendfiles script was not a
431 dependency of the `all' target, and was incorrectly included in
432 the distribution. Changed the suffix for the backed-up previous
433 versions of the etc files from the ambiguous .old to .prev. Added
434 call to diff -- only keep the .prev files around if different from
435 the newly-installed versions (intentionally didn't redirect output
436 to /dev/null so you'll notice when your changed versions are
437 getting moved aside).
439 * INSTALL never documented the etc/*.old thing. Documented the
440 new etc/*.prev thing (including a note to watch for diff output).
442 * Applied Alec Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu>'s dropsbr.c patch:
444 In the map_write routine, a call is made to map_open and this
445 call is supposed to set the "clear" variable to 0 or 1,
446 depending on whether the map file is empty or not. In
447 mh6.8.3, this worked because map_open would set "clear" by
448 calling the mbx_Xopen routine. In nmh, the code for mbx_Xopen
449 was merged into mbx_open, but the interface for mbx_open
450 doesn't support the clear variable, so that functionality was
451 lost. The map_open interface still contains "int *clear" in
452 the prototype, but never sets it.
454 My patch eliminates "clear" from the map_open interface (I
455 checked to make sure that map_write is the only client of
456 map_open). Furthermore, my patch also sets the "clear"
457 variable properly at the beginning of map_write by calling
458 fstat(). This eliminates the bug in that the value of "clear"
459 being used later in the routine was just stack garbage.
461 Having a bad value of clear causes this next bug to be
462 triggered: The fp file pointer was being opened with fdopen,
463 but in two of the three switch cases it wasn't being closed.
464 In certain cases, this was causing packf to run out of file
465 descriptors if you attempted to pack a large folder.
467 Mon May 29 7:48:15 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
469 * Moved the date parsing routines from zotnet/tws to sbr/ (and
470 tws.h to h/). Updated all source files to reflect to new location
473 * Rewrote dparsetime (in dtimep.lex -> dtimep.c) to replace the
474 old zotnet/tws/dtimep.c, dtimep.lex, lexstring.c, lexedit.c, and
475 dtimep.c-lexed. It should now work with flex (although untested
476 with lex), and requires no sed-ing. For now, I have the lexed
477 version in the distribution, so that end-users don't need to worry
478 about running it through flex/lex. I have not added back support
479 for guessing the time zone when it's not specified.
481 Sun May 28 17:44:15 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
483 * Added autoconf check for getutent().
485 * Changed uip/rcvtty.c and uip/slocal.c to use getutent() and
486 friends. Since I can only check on Linux, please check if
487 this works on other systems.
489 Sun May 28 14:58:49 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
491 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to uip/scansbr.c for more
492 checks for write failures.
494 * Unlink temporary file properly in uip/rcvtty.c.
496 * Moved viamail from bindir to libdir.
498 * Changed sendfiles into sendfiles.in, so that path to viamail
501 * Added gzip support to sendfiles.
503 * Added References header to replcomps and replgroupcomps.
505 Sun May 28 14:39:31 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
507 * Fixed m_getfld bug which caused segmentation faults when
508 incorporating messages which ended in multiple linefeeds crossing
511 Fri May 26 13:21:59 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
513 * msh has been unable to show MIME messages ever since 1.0. Alec
514 Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu> tracked down the problem to the
515 -show flag being passed to mhshow. mhshow is equivalent to the
516 old mhn -show, so we don't need the -show anymore. Removed it.
518 Fri May 12 02:51:21 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
520 * zotnet/bboards is not longer built by default. Goal is to move
521 the assorted functions in zotnet into sbr or some more logical
524 * Moved zotnet/mf to sbr, and changed mf.h references accordingly,
525 as well as Makefiles.
527 Thu May 11 02:21:34 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
529 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that both SRCS and OBJS aren't
530 seperately and redundantly defined, but so that OBJS is a
531 pattern-substituted version of SRCS with suffix .c -> .o. This
532 should make maintainability easier.
534 * Added section to MACHINES indicating what platforms nmh is known
535 to compile and work on, just to give users peace of mind, or
536 something. This is by no means complete or exhaustive, so add
537 whatever you know works.
539 Tue May 09 20:38:04 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
541 * Alphabetized Shantonu's $pop_kinds output on configure's "pop is
542 enabled" line. If POP3 is the only kind of POP enabled, say so,
543 rather than just saying "yes" (which is ambiguous).
545 * Fixed four warnings in Shantonu's new getpass.c. Needed to
546 #include <stdlib.h> for calloc(), <unistd.h> for ttyname(), and
547 "h/mh.h" for adios(). Also changed ch from char to int to get rid
548 of "comparison is always 1 due to limited range of data type" on EOF.
550 * Added steps to README.developers saying to change the version
551 number to X.Y.Z+dev. Did a little rearranging and changed the FTP
552 dir from /home/ftp to /var/ftp to reflect Doug's new machine.
554 * Changed configure.in to use gcc -Wall even without
555 --enable-debug, to prevent developers compiling optimized from
556 introducing warnings, and to give end-users a warm, fuzzy feeling
557 as they (hopefully) see no warnings come out (except perhaps on
558 the lex output file) even with -Wall.
560 * Renamed getpass() to nmh_getpass() since the prototype for
561 getpass() varies from OS to OS, and we want to _always_ use our
562 version of the function. Fixed all the callers to use
563 nmh_getpass() and added it to prototypes.h. Semi-arbitrarily
564 upped MAX_PASSWORD_LEN from 128 to 256. buf was being calloc()'d
565 and the memory leaked -- should have just been declared as static
566 char array. Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the
567 copyright message, as this version has been changed significantly
568 from the BSD version.
570 * Added "nmh-local functions to use in preference to OS versions"
571 section to README.developers (currently just says to use
572 nmh_getpass() instead of system getpass()).
574 * Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the copyright message
577 * Added mts.conf.5 page per Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s
580 This happens on solaris:
583 windex entry incorrect: mts.conf(5) not found.
584 No manual entry for mts.conf.
588 % echo ".so man5/mh-tailor.5" > mts.conf.5
590 done in the man5 directory. We need to add 'mts.conf.5' as a
591 reference sourcing mh-tailor.5.
593 Mon May 08 23:51:55 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
595 * Doug informed me that the way I had restored the "lost" version
596 histories was wrong, because `cvs checkout's of old versions of
597 nmh wouldn't work properly. It occurs to me that this could be
598 fixed by simply deleting those tags in the new-location *,v files,
599 but oh well. I'm putting everything back to the way Doug
600 originally had it. To get the old version history for a file that
601 used to be in the top directory, you'll need to "blindly" do a
602 `cvs log' there (even though you won't have a local copy of the
603 file in that directory). `cvs diff' will no longer be able to
604 diff pre-move versions vs. post-move versions -- you'll have to do
605 a lot of manual gyrations with `cvs checkout' and then use `diff'.
607 * I had alphabetized the --configure options in the --help output
608 awhile back, but Shantonu added --enable-apop just under
609 --enable-pop. Put it in alphabetical order and clarified what
610 --enable-apop does vs. --enable-pop and --with-krb4. Also changed
611 --with-mts help line from "mail transport agent" to "mail
612 transport agent/service" so the 's' in "mts" doesn't seem to come
615 * Added two steps to "releasing nmh" in README.developers. After
616 making the tarball, it's a good idea to diff the tree vs. the CVS
617 tree to make sure no files got left out, and then to chown the
618 files so that they're owned by root, preventing a Trojaning attack
619 by a malicious remote user with a UID matching yours.
621 * Changed DIFFERENCES to say that RPOP is not currently supported
622 rather than implying it by saying that APOP, KPOP, and POP[3] are.
624 Sun May 07 18:16:43 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
626 * Imported NetBSD version of getpass() and made extensive
627 revisions for compatibility with programs that pipe the password
628 to stdin, such as exmh.
630 * Removed tests for system ruserpass() which sometimes gave
631 phantom positive results. Also, bext to use internal functions if
632 we ever want to change .netrc format to something else, or access
635 Sat May 06 08:28:09 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
637 * Restored lost version histories for those moved files by doing a
638 manual `mv' in the CVSROOT on mhost. CVS badly needs a `cvs mv'
639 command so that you can move files (without having physical access
640 to the CVSROOT) without losing versioning. Put MACHINES back at
641 the top level as it needs to be read before building. Fixed DIST
642 variable in {.,docs}/Makefile.in to reflect that and to add
643 missing entry for "INSTALL" file.
645 Sat May 06 13:13:07 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
647 * Re-cleaned up nmh documentation (by moving things to docs
648 subdir) and modified Makefile & configure.in to handle the change.
650 Mon Apr 17 21:28:40 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
652 * Scott Blachowicz pointed out that the configure --help output
653 for --enable-masquerade was misleading. Clarified.
655 Mon Apr 17 19:01:00 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
657 * APOP support can be compiled in to inc and msgchk using
660 * To access an APOP host, specify -apop on the command line
661 along with any -host or -user option.
663 Fri Apr 14 23:10:44 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
665 * Upped the version number to 1.0.4+dev until the next nmh release.
667 * Added a "releasing nmh" section to README.developers, while the
668 process was fresh in my mind.
670 Fri Apr 14 18:21:34 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
672 * Added new files README.developers, ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6, and
673 ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html to DIST target in Makefile.in.
675 * Released nmh-1.0.4.
677 Tue Apr 11 21:37:03 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
679 * Applied Brian Campbell <bacam@tardis.ed.ac.uk>'s mhn.defaults.sh
682 It appears that there shouldn't be quotes around the %s in the
683 iso-8859-1 charset entry; xterm passes the remaining arguments
684 to the program, quoting them means that xterm thinks they're
685 part of the program's name.
687 This %s isn't the same as the "Insert content subtype" one from
688 mhshow-show-* -- it doesn't come from MIME headers and is safe not
691 Sun Apr 09 13:03:59 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
693 * added check in fmt_compile() to handle a single-character
694 format string. fmt_compile() depends on having an array of
695 format characters with an empty item at the end. A
696 single-character format would cause programs using this
697 function to segfault because the algorithm used to decide on
698 the length of the array mistakenly created a single-item array
699 when the format string was one character. This eventually
700 caused problems when the program attempted to test item+1
703 Thu Apr 06 21:53:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
705 * Richard Coleman threw out a lot of old MH-specific files in nmh.
706 Much of the stuff, indeed, is not worth saving, but there are
707 nuggets that are very worthwhile, and should probably be added
708 back in. Most important, IMHO, are the MH change logs, as they
709 can help answer questions like "Why is this code like this?" or
710 "How long has this been broken?" or "What was this ever used for?"
712 I've added a new file to the nmh tree called
713 ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6. It's cobbled together from the
714 mh-6.8.4/papers/mh*/MHCHANGES files. I've re-ordered the entries
715 to go from newest at the top to oldest at the bottom to match the
716 ChangeLog convention. Unfortunately there are no change logs for
717 versions of MH prior to 3 in the MH tar files available at
718 <ftp://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/mh>. Also, it appears to me that there
719 are MH-6.6 changes that aren't documented in the logs.
721 I've also added ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html. This is
722 based on mh-6.8.4/papers/changes/mh-changes.ms. The nroff format
723 and its "catman"-type output are a pain to deal with, but I was
724 loath to throw away the formatting, so I converted the file to
725 HTML. The only actual markup in the body are the "<B>" and "<U>"
726 tags, and "<" and ">" instead of '<' and '>', so it's quite
727 doable to view the file in plain ASCII mode as well. Note that
728 some of the changes this file documents as having been made in
729 MH-6.8.4 may not be present in nmh -- Richard started with 6.8.3
730 and later put in certain 6.8.4 stuff.
732 Wed Apr 05 21:09:28 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
734 * Applied Eric Schnoebelen <eric@cirr.com>'s mhshowsbr.c patch
735 fixing apparent bugs in Dan Winship's new security quoting code:
737 Since upgrading, I've been getting the following errors
738 while attempting to process some MIME messages:
740 (1) Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
745 (2) line 1/10 (END)Segmentation fault (core dumped)
747 (2) appears to be due to the testing of an unset pointer in
748 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux(). (1) appears to be caused by
749 mis-quoting a filename being handed to the shell in
750 mhshowsbr.c:show_content_aux().
752 Resolving the pointer reference issue in
753 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux() turned up a similar mis-quoting
754 problem in the routine.
756 Tue Mar 28 16:17:39 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
758 * Applied Todd.Miller@courtesan.com's patch to dropsbr.c to
759 prevent core dumping on packf. Here's the note from his message:
761 Since sizeof(buffer) == sizeof(tmpbuffer) packf will dump
762 core on a file w/o a From line with a line >= BUFSIZ.
763 I noticed this because I had a junk file in my mail
766 Fri Mar 17 11:59:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
768 * wesley.craig@umich.edu did not document his previous KPOP patch,
769 so I did so, and asked him to check what I wrote. Unfortunately
770 he didn't notice my misunderstanding of his patch. I wrote that
771 if you #define POPSERVICE "kpop", inc and msgchk will use KPOP
772 exclusively, but if you leave it as "pop3", you can use Wesley's
773 new -kpop switch on a given invocation. Instead, however, -kpop
774 turned out to be necessary on every invocation, and a KPOP user
775 complained. Applied Wesley's new patch, which makes things work
776 like I thought his original patch did. After that, did one more
777 clarifying pass to the documentation in inc.man and msgchk.man.
779 Wed Mar 15 18:45:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
781 * When I fixed the long-standing makedir() bugs in January, I had
782 the code call strtoul(..., 0), which I believed to be safe as all
783 modes specified as ASCII constants in the nmh code started with a
784 leading zero (signifying octal), which I did as it would work if
785 internal constants were ever changed to hex. Unfortunately I was
786 unaware of the "Folder-Protect:" .mh_profile entry, which
787 mh-profile.man documents as an octal-only constant, with no
788 leading zero required. I've changed the strtoul() call to an
789 atooi() call and removed the misleading leading zeroes on the
790 ASCII octal constants in the code and man pages. Also changed the
791 "Folder-Protect:" example in the man page to something more
792 interesting than a duplication of the default.
794 * When I added my --enable-masquerade option, you'll note that I
795 didn't make it --enable-nmh-masquerade. I find the --enable-nmh-*
796 options too wordy and I'm not sure why Richard went that route.
797 I've renamed them to just --enable-*, but the old versions will
798 still work as well (they just aren't advertised).
800 * Added a line to the "nmh configuration" output saying whether
803 * Added a new README.developers file. From the file:
805 This file is intended to provide a few tips for anyone doing
806 development on nmh. Developers who learn things "the hard
807 way" about the nmh codebase (as opposed to local info best
808 encoded in a comment) are encouraged to share their wisdom
811 Currently the topics are "autoconf files" and "directory structure".
813 Tue Mar 14 12:41:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
815 * Applied, after some finessing,
816 Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s --with-smtpservers patch:
818 Here's a patch that allows you to add
820 --with-smtpservers=<some.host.name>
822 to the ./configure command line to set the "servers: " line in
823 etc/mts.conf. Around here, we use "mailhost" so that all
824 machines in the current domain just talk to a central machine
825 and nothing else runs an MTA. Now, I can use
827 --with-smtpservers=mailhost
829 instead of having to remember to fix this by hand (and often
830 forgetting to do so!).
832 * Inspired by Simon's patch, added an --enable-masquerade option
833 to configure. It will set the "masquerade:" line of mts.conf.
834 You may specify a subset of the three types of masquerading, like
835 --enable-masquerade="draft_from mmailid", or leave off explicit
836 arguments to enable all three types.
838 * Alphabetized the --enable and --with options in configure.in and
839 INSTALL and added documentation of the two new options to the latter.
841 * Added new dependency for mts.conf: Makefile. If this isn't
842 done, then when you reconfigure nmh with new values for
843 --enable-masquerade or --with-smtpservers, you'll fail to get an
844 updated copy of mts.conf.
846 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtimep.lex patch:
848 It seems that some MUA's didn't handle y2k very well - ELM
849 seems to be one of them, and Ultrix's DXmail (based on MH!).
850 I've got a few emails this month that look like:
852 575 Jan 00 Xxxxxx Xxxx 3603 ...
854 22+ Jan 00 Xxx Xxxxx 1771 ...
856 The first has "15 Jan 100" as the date and the second has
857 "19 Jan 00" as the date. The following works around this so
858 that scan, show, sortm, etc work ok.
860 I put Simon's patch under the control of a new #define called
861 FIX_NON_Y2K_COMPLIANT_MUA_DATES. There's some commentary in
862 acconfig.h about when you might not want to #define it.
864 * Created new dtimep.c-lexed with Simon's change using dtimep.lex
865 lexed on Solaris 2.6. Added missing dependency in
866 zotnet/tws/Makefile.in for dtimep.c: dtimep.c-lexed.
868 * Added scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD format files.
870 Mon Mar 13 21:32:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
872 * Applied Sullivan N. Beck <sbeck@cise.ufl.edu>'s mhshow-suffix patch:
874 With the patch below, you can add lines like:
876 mhshow-suffix-application/msword: .doc
877 mhshow-suffix-application/PostScript: .ps
879 to the mhn.defaults file to append the given suffix to a
880 scratch file. This allows applications which require a
881 certain suffix to run properly.
883 * Removed -force_html from lynx entry in mhn.defaults.sh (I
884 believe older versions of lynx lack that option) and added
885 "mhshow-suffix-text/html: .html".
887 * Modified username_extension masquerading to only use the
888 extended address on generated [Resent-]From: lines and SMTP
889 envelope From:. With Neil's original implementation, nmh's global
890 idea of the username was changed, which would result in inc lying
891 and saying you had no new mail because it was looking for a
892 mailbox called, for instance, "dan-nmh" (where username was "dan"
893 and $USERNAME_EXTENSION was "-nmh").
895 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtime.c patch:
897 There's a wrap-around problem that affects the implementation
898 of Zeller's congruence in dtime.c. This causes the day-of-week
899 calculations to fail for dates after Feb 29, 2000 (probably up
900 until some year far in the future).
902 Mon Mar 06 12:20:20 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
904 * Applied Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s msh.c patch:
906 I finally tracked down the problem in msh that was causing
907 errors whenever I tried to examine a 'mmdf' style mailbox.
909 It turns out that not enough memory was being allocated with
910 calloc(), causing memory pointers to be overwritten and
913 Fri Mar 03 16:07:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
915 * Changed the new "plussed_user" option to mts.conf's
916 "masquerade:" to "username_extension" after getting feedback from
917 qmail users, who use '-' as a separator rather than '+'. Removed
918 checking of $USERPLUS variable. Now check $USERNAME_EXTENSION,
919 which needs to include the appropriate separator for your MTA
920 ('-', '+', or whatever) as its first character.
922 Thu Mar 02 23:04:30 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
924 * Added a new "boolean" type to mh.h and TRUE and FALSE constants.
926 * Added a note to DIFFERENCES stating that it's out-of-date
927 (Richard was the last one to update it) and that we should
928 consider only documenting incompatibilities with MH there.
930 * Implemented (and documented) a third kind of username
931 masquerading: "plussed user" masquerading. This one was suggested
932 by Neil Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>. It's based on sendmail's
933 "plussed user" feature, where mail sent to <user>+<string> will be
934 delivered to <user>. When it's enabled, it's controlled by the
935 $USERPLUS environment variable. How is it enabled? Well, that
938 * Renamed the "mmailid:" setting in mts.conf to "masquerade:", and
939 changed it so that rather than being a boolean, it can be set to
940 any combination of the three values "draft_from", "mmailid", and
941 "plussed_user". Thus it is now possible to enable the three types
942 of masquerading individually.
944 * Fixed a bug with "mmailid" masquerading (dating back to MH?)
945 where if it was turned on, ','s would no longer be considered
946 GECOS field delimiters.
948 Wed Mar 01 23:30:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
950 * Changed the GECOS-field '&' translation behavior to be
951 controlled by the BSD42 #define rather than GCOS_HACK, since it's
952 apparently always appropriate on OSes where BSD42 is #defined, and
953 never appropriate on any other OSes. Thanks to Kimmo Suominen for
954 responding to my "What is this code here for?" comment in mts.c
955 and explaining the feature.
957 Mon Feb 28 21:50:29 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
959 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3+dev (ideally this should be
960 done by whoever makes a release tar file, immediately after doing
963 * Applied Paul Fox <pgf-spam@foxharp.boston.ma.us>'s scansbr.c
964 patch, posted to comp.mail.mh, which he says prevents loss of mail
965 when inc'ing into a full filesystem.
967 * Changed "echo > stamp-h.in" in Makefile.in to "date > stamp-h.in"
968 so that stamp-h.in will be different each time configure.in and
969 related files are changed, making it easier to check it in (which
970 is necessary to prevent unnecessary autoconf calls).
972 * My declaration of initgroups() in slocal.c to eliminate the "no
973 prototype" warning wasn't portable (FreeBSD 3.[23] choked). Now
974 use AC_EGREP_HEADER to see where initgroups() is declared, if
977 Sun Feb 20 12:17:15 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
979 * Fix security hole in mhshowsbr.c which allowed untrusted shell
982 * Released nmh 1.0.3.
984 Thu Feb 10 10:54:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
986 * Oops. %-escapes on mhstore lines in mhn.defaults.sh should not
987 be surrounded by single quotes, as a shell is not spawned when
988 just saving files, and the filenames will end up with literal
989 quotes embedded in them.
991 Fri Feb 04 12:29:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
993 * Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
994 got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
995 the -help output. One theory is that they were making reference
996 to the fact that clearly you know about the -help option since
997 you're currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea
998 to overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
999 supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
1002 The other theory is that because you can say something like
1003 "mhstore -" and get "mhstore: - ambiguous. It matches" followed
1004 by the same list of switches you get with -help, they were saying
1005 you can "sorta" abbreviate "-help" as "-". You don't get the
1006 "Usage:" string, though, so it's not really the same thing.
1008 Thu Feb 03 17:52:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1010 * Applied wesley.craig@umich.edu's KPOP patches. According to him:
1012 The following patch fixes a problem with requesting a
1013 service key for a machine that has multiple 'A' records. It
1014 also makes "-kpop" a command line option, for users who
1015 would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".
1017 Did no testing of the new features, as I don't have access to a
1020 * Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
1022 * Modified INSTALL and config.h.in to reflect the new -kpop feature.
1024 Fri Jan 28 17:39:24 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1026 * All %-escapes in mhn.defaults that actually expand to something
1027 should be surrounded by single quotes. Added quotes to the ones
1028 in mhn.defaults.sh that were missing them.
1030 * Added check for lynx to write mhshow-show-text/html line in
1033 Thu Jan 27 12:22:25 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1035 * makedir() had multiple bugs dating back to MH. An octal
1036 constant was apparently being interpreted as decimal, resulting in
1037 directories with no user read or execute permissions, making
1038 nested directory creation fail. And there wasn't even an
1039 _attempt_ to set desired permissions (e.g. from "Folder-Protect:"
1040 in .mh_profile) on the outer directories of a nested directory.
1042 * A second `make install' would always fail because the check for
1043 whether mh_profile.5 existed was written incorrectly.
1045 Wed Jan 26 02:22:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1047 * Added documentation on both types of masquerading to post's man
1050 Tue Jan 25 22:58:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1052 * Doug's portability fix of my setgid inc autodetection had a
1053 caching bug -- if you re-ran configure, uip/Makefile would be
1054 corrupted, and installation would bomb out on OSes where inc needs
1057 * Implemented a new kind of email address masquerading. Usually,
1058 when a user writes a custom "From:" header in a draft, nmh uses it
1059 rather than generating one. However, the user's true address is
1060 used in the SMTP envelope "From:" and is revealed in the "Sender:"
1061 header. Now, when mmailid is set to non-zero, the envelope
1062 "From:" uses the address specified in the draft "From:" header,
1063 and there is no "Sender:" header. This is useful when sending on
1064 behalf of a remote POP3 account or when remote mail robots
1065 incorrectly use the envelope "From:" in preference to the body
1066 "From:". This processing has only been implemented for post, not
1067 for the undocumented spost (which was already missing some "From:"
1068 processing that post has).
1070 Mon Jan 24 22:26:06 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1072 * Got rid of the rest of the gcc -Wall warnings that I didn't have
1073 time for on 1999-07-15 (and, it would seem, some new ones people
1074 introduced since then). The primary ones were the warnings that
1075 default prototypes were being used for [v]snprintf() and
1076 str[n]casecmp(). As of right now, there are _no_ compilation
1077 warnings except on dtimep.c-lexed (at least under AIX 4.1.5 and
1080 Sun Jan 2 23:42:18 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1082 * Move mhtest from bindir to libdir.
1084 * Move sendfiles from libdir to bindir.
1086 * Updated sendfiles manpage to reflect this change.
1088 * Added documentation for -build and -file switches to repl and
1089 forw manpages (patch from Peter Maydell).
1091 * Fixed interaction between specifying -cc in profile and -group on
1094 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1096 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
1097 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
1098 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
1101 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1103 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
1104 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
1105 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
1106 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
1107 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
1108 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).
1110 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1112 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
1114 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1116 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
1117 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
1118 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
1119 caught again. This works for now.
1121 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
1123 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1125 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
1126 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
1128 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1130 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
1131 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
1133 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
1135 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
1137 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1139 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
1140 changes. Both need more cleanup.
1142 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1144 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
1145 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
1146 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
1147 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
1148 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
1151 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1153 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
1154 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
1155 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
1157 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
1158 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
1161 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1163 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
1164 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
1165 to a directory on another device with more free space.
1167 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1169 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
1170 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
1172 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1174 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
1177 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
1178 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
1180 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
1181 macros, regardless of platform.
1183 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
1184 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1186 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
1187 with x-conversions=gzip.
1189 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1191 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
1194 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
1195 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
1196 implicit definition of ioctl().
1198 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
1199 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
1200 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
1201 want to mess with them.
1203 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1205 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
1206 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
1208 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
1209 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
1211 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
1212 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
1213 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
1215 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
1216 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
1217 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
1219 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
1220 function initgroups.
1222 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
1225 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
1226 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
1229 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
1230 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
1233 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
1234 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
1238 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1240 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
1241 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
1242 preventing compilation on at least linux.
1244 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
1245 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
1247 Thu Sep 09 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1249 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
1251 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
1252 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
1253 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
1254 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
1256 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
1257 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
1259 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1261 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
1263 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1265 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
1266 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
1268 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1270 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
1271 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
1273 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
1274 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
1275 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
1276 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
1278 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
1279 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
1281 Sat Jun 09 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1283 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
1284 substitute it for mktemp if available.
1286 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1288 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
1289 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
1292 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
1294 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
1296 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
1298 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
1299 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
1301 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
1302 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
1303 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
1305 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
1306 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
1307 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
1309 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
1310 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
1311 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1313 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
1314 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
1317 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
1318 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1320 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
1321 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1323 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
1324 <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1326 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
1327 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
1328 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1330 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
1331 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1333 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
1334 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
1335 <elleron@servtech.com>.
1337 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
1338 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
1341 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
1342 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
1344 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
1345 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
1346 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
1347 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
1349 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
1350 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
1352 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1356 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
1357 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
1358 would not be changed.
1360 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
1361 one from the Apache web server.
1363 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
1364 (this should have been done a long time ago).
1366 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
1367 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
1368 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
1370 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
1372 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
1374 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
1375 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
1378 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
1379 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
1380 removes a bad race condition.
1382 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
1385 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
1386 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
1387 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
1389 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
1390 sequence information.
1392 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
1393 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
1395 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
1398 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
1401 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
1403 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
1404 interpret 034 as octal.
1406 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
1408 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
1409 mhstore, and mhbuild.
1411 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
1412 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
1414 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
1415 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
1417 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
1418 in the c_cefile structure when building.
1420 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
1421 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
1423 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
1424 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
1425 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
1427 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
1428 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
1429 and mhshow. Updated man pages
1431 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
1433 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
1435 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
1436 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
1439 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
1441 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
1442 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
1444 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
1445 header field information.
1447 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
1448 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
1450 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
1451 values when parsing a content.
1453 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
1454 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
1456 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
1457 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
1459 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
1460 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1462 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
1463 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
1465 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
1467 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
1469 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
1471 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
1473 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
1474 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
1477 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
1478 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
1480 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
1481 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
1482 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
1483 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
1484 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
1485 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
1488 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1490 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
1491 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
1492 buffer length checks for this parameter.
1494 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
1495 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
1497 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1499 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
1500 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
1501 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
1502 of the limits on the length of command lines.
1504 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
1505 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
1508 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
1509 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
1510 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
1511 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
1514 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1516 * Released nmh-0.27.
1518 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
1519 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
1521 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
1522 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
1523 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
1524 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
1527 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
1528 mhbuild returns an error.
1530 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
1531 rename the draft file.
1533 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
1534 use a global variable.
1536 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
1537 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
1539 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
1540 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
1542 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
1543 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
1544 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
1546 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
1547 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
1549 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
1550 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
1553 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
1554 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
1557 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
1558 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
1560 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
1561 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
1562 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
1564 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
1565 to new function output_content_folder.
1567 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
1568 new function output_content_file.
1570 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
1571 to new function parse_format_string.
1573 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
1574 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
1575 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
1576 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
1578 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
1579 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
1580 message/external file from ftp.
1582 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
1583 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
1584 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
1586 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
1587 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
1590 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
1593 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
1594 new file mhstoresbr.c
1596 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
1599 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
1600 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
1602 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
1603 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
1605 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
1606 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
1607 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
1609 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
1611 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
1613 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
1614 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
1617 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
1618 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
1620 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
1623 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
1625 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1627 * Released nmh-0.26.
1629 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
1630 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
1631 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
1632 is still the same (dashstuffing).
1634 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
1635 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
1636 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
1637 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
1638 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
1640 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
1641 But it is not on by default.
1643 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
1644 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
1646 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
1648 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
1650 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
1652 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
1654 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
1655 number of the "cur" message when packing.
1657 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1659 * Released nmh-0.25.
1661 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
1662 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
1663 uses the original name of the library.
1665 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
1666 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
1669 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
1670 list_content and list_debug.
1672 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
1674 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
1675 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.

1679 * Released nmh-0.24.
1681 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
1683 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
1684 are given, that order doesn't matter.
1686 * Fix bug in seq_list.c when realloc'ing for
1687 large sequence line.
1689 1998-02-23 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

1693 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
1695 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
1696 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan
1697 content, decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary
1698 string). I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
1700 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
1701 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
1704 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
1706 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
1708 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
1710 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
1711 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
1713 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
1714 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.
1716 * Add note to MACHINES file that on Linux, configure
1717 doesn't find the functions sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
1719 * Fix configuration for machines that don't have (or find)
1720 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
1722 1998-02-11 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1724 * Released nmh-0.22.
1726 * Add a configure check for sigsetjmp. Add some conditional
1727 #define's in h/signals.h in case it's not found.

1731 * Added note about MM_CHARSET environment variable to
1732 mh-profile(5) man page.

1735 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp).
1737 1998-02-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1739 * Released nmh-0.22-pre1.
1741 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
1742 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
1744 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
1746 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
1747 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
1748 entry point for parsing MIME files.
1750 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
1751 source message on the standard input.
1753 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
1755 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
1756 rather than -rfc934mode.
1758 * Fix mhbuild, so that Content-Description and RFC-822 comments
1759 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
1762 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
1763 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).
1765 * Restore HP specific code to zotnet/tws/lexstring.c. Apparently
1768 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1770 * Released nmh-0.21.
1772 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
1773 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.
1775 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what transfer
1778 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what character set
1779 to use for text contents.
1781 * Removed old hpux specific code from zotnet/tws/lexstring.c
1783 1998-02-02 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1785 * Released nmh-0.21-pre2.
1787 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
1789 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
1790 header fields as per RFC-2047.
1792 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
1793 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
1794 spaces between encoded word are.
1796 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
1798 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
1799 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
1801 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
1802 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
1803 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
1805 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
1807 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
1808 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
1810 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.

1815 ISO-8859-X character set.
1817 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
1820 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
1821 permissions, not write permissions.
1823 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
1824 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
1826 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
1829 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1831 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
1833 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
1834 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
1836 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
1837 message contains valid character set.
1839 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
1840 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
1842 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
1843 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
1845 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
1846 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
1847 between an encoded word and normal text.
1849 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
1850 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
1852 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
1853 as a RFC-2047 header field.

1858 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
1859 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
1862 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
1863 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
1865 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
1866 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
1868 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
1870 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1872 * Released nmh-0.20.
1874 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
1876 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.

1879 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
1880 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
1882 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
1883 and the To: line was missing.
1885 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
1887 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1889 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
1891 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
1892 watch the POP transaction.
1894 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
1895 first, and use it if available.
1897 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
1898 first, and use it if available.
1900 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1902 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
1904 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
1905 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
1906 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
1909 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
1910 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
1911 returns the state FLDPLUS.
1913 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
1914 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
1917 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
1919 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
1920 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
1922 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
1924 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
1925 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
1927 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
1928 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
1929 message to which you are replying.
1931 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
1932 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
1933 making group replies.
1935 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
1937 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1939 * Released nmh-0.19.
1941 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
1942 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
1944 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
1945 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
1946 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
1947 to the end of the man page.
1949 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
1950 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
1951 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
1952 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
1953 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
1954 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
1956 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
1959 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
1960 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
1961 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
1963 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
1964 the next available number above the message number you wish
1967 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
1968 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
1970 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
1971 file sbr/seq_print.c
1973 * flist will now update the current folder.
1975 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
1976 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
1977 but now undocumented.
1979 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
1982 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
1983 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
1985 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
1987 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
1988 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
1990 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1992 * Released nmh-0.18.
1994 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
1995 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
1996 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
1998 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
1999 retains the public/private status of sequences.
2001 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
2002 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
2003 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
2004 previous public/private status.
2006 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
2009 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
2012 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
2013 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
2014 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
2016 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
2017 take option to determine whether it should get current
2018 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
2019 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
2021 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
2023 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
2024 wait for stopped processes.
2026 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
2027 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
2029 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2031 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
2033 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
2034 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
2036 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
2037 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
2039 * Change the way that memory for message status is
2040 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
2041 the folder/message structure. This required changing
2042 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
2044 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
2047 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
2050 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
2052 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
2053 the debugging output.
2055 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
2056 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
2058 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2060 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
2062 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
2063 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
2065 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
2067 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
2068 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
2069 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
2070 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
2071 in the given sequence.
2073 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
2074 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
2075 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
2076 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
2077 subdirectories of a given directory.
2079 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
2080 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
2081 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
2083 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
2084 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
2086 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
2088 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
2091 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
2092 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
2093 fields are now calculated at runtime.
2095 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
2096 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
2097 are calculated at runtime.
2099 Sun Nov 30 19:14:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2101 * Released nmh-0.18-pre2.
2103 * Add paragraph to man page for install-mh and to INSTALL file
2104 about checking for global mh.profile.
2106 * Renamed m_find() to context_find().
2107 Renamed m_replace() to context_replace().
2108 Renamed m_delete() to context_del().
2109 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
2110 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
2111 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
2113 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
2114 adding message to folder itself.
2116 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
2117 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
2118 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
2121 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
2122 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
2125 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
2126 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
2127 is the same as the direct smtp code).
2129 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
2130 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
2132 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
2133 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
2134 code to use it yet).
2136 Thu Nov 13 18:42:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2138 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.
2140 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never
2141 called with a value larger than 30 mintues.
2143 * Fixed race condition in rmm and refile, so that
2144 context is updated before external rmmproc is called.
2146 * Removed all the OVERHEAD code.
2148 * Move code to add message to folder from refile.c
2151 Fri Jul 25 19:39:29 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2153 * Did some rearranging of the internals of inc.c.
2155 * Make -inplace the default for anno, forw, dist, and repl.
2157 * Changed --enable-smtp to --with-mts={smtp,sendmail}
2159 * Created new directory mts/sendmail for direct sendmail
2160 interface (although it currently still uses SMTP).
2162 * Removed all the TMA (trusted mail agent) code
2164 * Removed all the TTYD (terminal access daemon) code
2166 * Removed all the MF (uucp filtering) code.
2168 * Removed all the code for BERK.
2170 * Removed all the code for stand-alone delivery (MHMTS).
2172 * Split the file mts/sendmail/smail.c into sendmail.c and
2173 smtp.c. Changed the name of the directory to mts/smtp.
2175 * Changed autoconf to use @sysconfdir@ for location of
2176 configuration files.
2178 * Changed #define in mhn.c from FTP to BUILTIN_FTP.
2180 Mon Jul 21 03:22:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2182 * Released nmh-0.17.
2184 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
2186 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
2187 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
2189 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
2192 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
2193 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
2195 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
2196 number of refiled message.
2198 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
2200 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
2201 for return value of wait().
2203 * Change configure to also check /bin for "more".
2205 Sat Jul 12 00:02:23 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2207 * Released nmh-0.16.
2209 Mon Jun 23 20:13:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2211 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
2213 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
2214 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
2215 deal with binary messages, yet).
2217 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
2219 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
2221 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
2222 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
2223 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
2224 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
2225 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
2226 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
2228 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
2229 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
2231 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
2232 From MH-6.8.4 patch.
2234 * Fix double free of ctinfo in user_content when using
2235 #forw with single message. From John MacMillan (and
2238 * Changed -mhnproc switch for show, to -showmimeproc.
2240 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".
2242 * Added "mime" option to "whatnow", which calls the program
2243 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
2246 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
2249 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
2251 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
2252 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
2253 which used unsigned chars by default.
2255 Sat Jun 21 01:21:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2257 * Released nmh-0.15.
2259 * Added new form "scan.unseen" to distribution. It marks messages
2260 which are in any sequence in Unseen-Sequence.
2262 * Do some rearranging of date/time code in zotnet/tws/dtime.c
2264 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
2266 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
2269 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
2270 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
2271 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
2273 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
2274 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
2276 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
2278 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
2279 they conflict with defines on AIX.
2281 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
2282 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
2283 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
2284 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
2286 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
2287 and put in own subroutine.
2289 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
2290 and put in own subroutine.
2292 * Moved code to remove messages from folder into own
2293 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and
2294 refile.c to use new routine.
2296 Fri May 16 06:09:31 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2298 * Renamed m_seqok to seq_nameok.
2300 * Changed m_setunseen, msh, mshcmds, flist, and scan to use

2423 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
2425 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c

2442 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
2444 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
2445 folder/message structure when done with folder.
2447 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is

2510 * Released nmh-0.08.
2512 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
2513 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of

2521 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
2524 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
2525 rather than mmdf format.
2527 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
2528 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
2529 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
2530 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.

2534 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2536 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
2539 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2540 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2541 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
2543 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2544 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to

2547 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2549 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
2550 can still easily change this in config.h).
2552 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
2553 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
2554 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
2556 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2558 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather

2573 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
2575 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
2576 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
2579 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
2580 built-in FTP client in mhn.

2593 * Released nmh-0.06.
2595 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
2596 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
2598 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
2599 many such machines around anymore.
2601 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
2602 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
2604 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
2605 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
2607 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2609 * Check lex generated file in zotnet/tws and use
2610 pre-generated version if necessary.
2612 * Released nmh-0.05.
2614 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
2615 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
2616 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
2617 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
2619 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
2620 be linked in one pass.
2622 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2624 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
2625 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
2627 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2629 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
2631 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2633 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
2634 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
2635 become the current folder.
2637 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2639 * Released nmh-0.04.

2644 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2646 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
2647 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
2648 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
2650 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2652 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
2653 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
2655 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2657 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
2658 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
2661 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
2662 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
2664 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2666 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
2667 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
2668 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
2669 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
2670 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
2671 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
2673 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2675 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
2676 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
2678 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
2679 a file (currently need to specify full path).
2681 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2683 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
2684 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
2686 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2688 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
2689 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
2690 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
2692 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2694 * Released nmh-0.03.
2696 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
2697 .mh_sequence file existed.
2699 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
2700 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
2702 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
2703 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
2706 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2708 * Changed flist option -unseen to -[no]all. Cleaned up
2711 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2713 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
2714 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
2715 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
2717 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2719 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
2720 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
2721 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
2723 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2725 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL
2726 and allocate its own buffer. Borrowed from zsh.
2728 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
2730 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2732 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
2733 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
2734 directory from where the source code is located.
2736 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2738 * Released nmh-0.02.

2758 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
2759 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
2760 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
2761 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
2762 rather than in script.
2764 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2766 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
2768 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with

2773 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
2774 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
2776 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
2777 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
2778 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
2779 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
2782 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2784 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
2785 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.

2790 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2792 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
2794 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included

2799 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
2800 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
2802 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2804 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
2805 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
2806 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
2807 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
2808 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
2809 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
2811 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2813 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
2815 * Released nmh-0.01.
2817 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
2818 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
2819 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
2822 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2824 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
2827 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2829 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
2830 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
2832 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2834 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
2835 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
2836 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
2837 script to find_program.
2839 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2841 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
2842 speed up -recurse option.
2844 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
2845 yet, but it compiles :-)
2847 * Changed default location for install to
2848 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
2849 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
2850 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
2853 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
2854 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
2855 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
