1 2005-05-18 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
3 * Debian Bug# 261592: Harald Geyer: uip/mhlsbr.c, uip/replsbr.c:
4 test/report error writing to stdout
6 * mts/smtp/smtp.c, uip/popsbr.c: correct SASL include file locations
8 * docs/COMPLETION-BASH: bash completion definitions from Debian
10 * patch #2863: savannah@brisammon.fastmail.fm: sbr/folder_read.c:
11 fix a bug affecting AFS where nmh was setting the READONLY flag
12 for a folder even when you do have write access to the folder
14 * Carl Mummert: h/fmt_compile.h, man/mh-format.man,
15 sbr/fmt_compile.c, sbr/fmt_scan.c: add unquote() function for
16 removing quotes from RFC-2822 encoded headers
18 2005-02-23 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
20 * use iconv to convert RFC-2047 encoded headers to the
21 character set used by the current locale
23 * sbr/folder_read.c fix Debian bug #202667: crash when a
24 message's filename overflows an int when converted
26 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
27 versions (from automake 1.9.5)
29 2005-02-21 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
31 * sbr/getpass.c fix bug where inc crashed on failing to reopen
34 2005-01-27 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
36 * Added -proxy option to inc and msgchk. Based on old patch
37 from Michael Richardson.
39 * On systems where it is available, use nl_langinfo to get the
40 character set if MM_CHARSET is unset
42 2005-01-21 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
44 * sbr/check_charset.c US-ASCII is a subset of UTF-8 so can be
45 handled directly when UTF-8 is being used
47 2004-12-17 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
49 * uip/mhmisc.c Fix -part option to mhshow/mhlist/mhstore to
50 find sub-parts of the specified part
52 2004-11-19 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
54 * h/prototypes.h, sbr/folder_addmsg.c, uip/mhstoresbr.c,
55 uip/rcvstore.c, uip/refile.c: Added mail directory argument to
56 folder_addmsg in order to make it possible to provide a path to
57 the ext_hook call that is mailpath-based. A problem existed when
58 a folder was a symbolic link and the pwd call would return the
59 path relative to the filesystem, not to mailpath. A new argument
60 was needed because there was otherwise no reasonable way to get
63 2004-11-16 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
65 * sbr/folder_pack.c: Fixed problem where the refile hook was being
66 called after a message was renamed so that it wasn't around for
67 the hook. The hook is now called before the message file is
70 * sbr/folder_addmsg.c: Fixed wrong directory for hook when
71 refiling with -src option.
73 2004-10-15 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
75 * uip/sortm.c: Fixed calling of external hooks.
77 2004-10-12 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
79 * uip/inc.c: Fixed another weird bug caused by the static
80 mailpath being overwritten.
82 * uip/sendsbr.c: Fixed bug that caused anno to mangle headers.
84 * sbr/lock_file.c: Fixed strange bug that prevented a lock from
85 ever being obtained if getting it failed the first time. The
86 problem was that the string of XXXXXX that is required by
87 mkstemp() was overwritten the first time through, and so all
88 subsequent times failed because mkstemp() failed. The fix
89 reinitializes the tmp file string.
91 * uip/inc.c: Fixed bug in which the static maildir was overwritted
92 if a format string was read from the profile.
94 * sbr/folder_delmsgs.c: Fixed bug that was producing an incorrect
95 path for the external hook.
97 2003-10-06 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
99 * uip/slocal.c, configure.in: db configuration fix for Debian; yet
100 another location for ndbm.
102 2003-09-30 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
104 * Fix 'pick' so handling of options "-list" and "-seq" are
106 * Fix 'inc' realloc error when bringing in more than 100 msgs
108 * Patches submitted by Nick Rusnov from Debian archive applied:
111 136976 - Handle binary content messages
112 143427 - mh-format.man typo
113 144098 - 'spost; should have same behavior as 'post'
114 w.r.t. mts.conf masquerade line
115 149745 - slocal ignores 'N' result of previous command
116 152728 - increase SMTP timeouts to conform to RFC 1123
117 The timeouts suggested by the RFC seem long
118 to me - but the RFC is still listed as active.
119 181867 - typo for nmh.man
121 2003-08-10 Jeffrey C Honig <jch@honig.net>
123 * Fix problem where parsing of address/date fields in fmt_compile
124 is optimized to the first instance. The first instance may be in
125 contitional code which will result in cached data to
126 be used. Instead, convert c_flags to a flags field from a boolean
127 and parse on the first use.
128 * Remove some unused flag bits.
130 Fri Jul 01 22:02:00 2003 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
132 * Applied fixes for configuration problems with Solaris and
133 systems with gdbm instead of db1 (includes bug #2024)
135 #578 - repl leaks umask
136 #1393 - sortm core dumps
137 #1650 - msh leaks file descriptors
138 #1730 - Double free() in mhfree.c:free_encoding()
139 #3356 - In-Reply-To header in default replcomps should be
141 * Revised man page for mh-format (bug #2031)
142 * New replcomps, etc, with Fcc: +outbox in default versions
144 Sat Mar 17 03:18:15 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
146 * Ken Hornstein's configure.in Cyrus SASL checks were doing
147 `x"$with_cyrus_sasl" != "no"' instead of `... != x"no"'.
149 Tue Mar 06 21:04:27 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
151 * Found some historical information about MH in RFC 808.
152 Supplemented it with info from Jerry Peek's MH book and added it
153 to docs/README.about.
155 Tue Feb 6 20:35:40 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
157 * sbr/dtime.c Use the same Y2K correction code as dtimep.lex
159 * sbr/dtimep.lex Restrict the parser to accept either
160 a numerical timezone offset, or a symbolic one (e.g. EST),
161 but not both (Since "2000 -400 EDT" might cause a double
162 subtraction of 60 minutes if both are parsed. One should be
165 Mon Feb 05 20:22:54 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
167 * -L isn't sufficient for specifying the path of the Cyrus SASL
168 shared library. That'll allow us to link successfully, but on
169 many/most OSes that won't allow us to find libsasl at runtime. On
170 Solaris, we need to specify the library path with -R as well (or
171 else the user will have to use the $LD_LIBRARY_PATH kludge, which
172 is considered harmful). This fix should be extended to other OSes
175 * Print whether we have SASL support in the "nmh configuration"
176 summary configure prints out.
178 * Say in README.developers to use `\date' in case anyone is like
179 me and has `date' aliased in their shell to use a nonstandard (but
180 subjectively more readable) format.
182 Thu Jan 25 21:15:52 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
184 * man/mh-chart.man has updated synposes of
187 Tue Jan 23 20:26:15 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
189 * etc/digestcomps tried to force dates into a
190 19xx when it's not necessary.
192 Fri Jan 19 21:22:08 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
194 * First round of manpage updates finished. They
195 are standardized on -man macros, with minimal
198 * man/tmac.h.in is no longer needed, since the
199 manpages do not depend on them anymore. Note:
200 strict "man" programs that didn't allow ".so"
201 sourcing outside the man tree will now format
202 the man pages correctly.
204 * man/vmh.1 is no longer built, since uip/vmh isn't
206 Tue Jan 9 6:01:22 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
208 * Finished manpages ali-prev
210 * Removed deprecated files from the repository.
211 Specifically, those rooted in zotnet/ and mts/sendmail
212 mts/mmdf. "cvs update -dP" will give a pruned directory
215 * Updated docs/Makefile.in to include README.manpages, and
216 uip/Makefile.in to include popi.c (which isn't being built,
217 though). This allows "make nmhdist" to create an archive that
218 is file-for-file identical to the current cvs repository.
220 Sun Dec 31 20:48:50 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
222 * Create docs/README.manpages, which details
223 the formatting rules I've been using.
227 Sat Dec 30 9:50:13 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
229 * Created a new file "DATE" to hold the date
230 of the most recent nmh release. This date will be
231 used in the manpages.
233 * Updated docs/README.developers to add the step
234 of updating DATE. Also, updated configure to
235 read in the contents of the file as the variable
238 * Started work on updating man pages, with only
239 ali finished so far. Changes: 1) no dependence
240 on an external macro file, 2) uses only
241 -man macros (although I may be mistaken in this),
242 3) syntax in the SYNOPSIS is a little more
243 in line with standard UNIX documentation, such as
244 bold flags and italicized parameters.
246 Sun Dec 24 10:06:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
248 * Updated INSTALL with information about the
249 --with-locking option.
251 * Fixed the Hesiod tests in configure.in. In
252 systems where res_send was in -lresolv, this
253 information was not being communicated to the
254 HESIOD_LIBS var. Now, if res_send is not found
255 in the default libraries, it's assumed to be
256 in -lresolv, and thus -lresolv is appended to
257 HESIOD_LIBS, which will need that to avoid
258 undefined symbols problems.
260 * Fixed the Kerberos tests in configure.in. New
261 versions of Kerberos 5 have renamed -lcrypto
262 to -lk5crypto (circa krb5 1.1 or thereabouts). The
263 new test tries to determine if -lk5crypto exists. If so,
264 this is a new krb5 system. If not, test for -lcrypto
265 and the rest of old krb5. If that fails, look
266 for a genuine krb4 installation.
268 Fri Dec 22 22:08:51 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
270 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in msgchk.man.
271 -snoop was documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
273 Fri Dec 22 23:42:16 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
275 * Made a new ./configure option called
276 "--with-locking" that allows the file
277 locking mechanism to be chosen there instead of
278 requiring a manual edit of config.h.
280 * If the option is not explicitly set, or an
281 invalid option is specified, "dot" locking is
282 chosen. Valid options are "dot", "fcntl",
283 "flock", and "lockf". We need a way to tell
284 the user that these are the valid options, and
285 change the flag "--with-locking" if it's not
288 Fri Dec 22 19:21:29 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
290 * Remove the lex-specific memory hints at the
291 beginning of sbr/dtimep.lex. We've already
292 committed to supporting flex only, since
293 lex does not easily allow us to parse a single
294 string, as well as other problems documented
295 below and on nmh-workers.
297 * Added a switch statement to configure.in to
298 test for Mac OS X. If this is the case, LDFLAGS
299 should not contain "-s" since the linker rejects
302 * Updated MACHINES to include Mac OS X Public Beta,
303 as well as Linux 2.4 running glibc 2.2.
305 Wed Dec 20 16:00:46 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
307 * Marked deprecated directories in docs/README.developers
308 as deprecated, with pointers to the new code location.
309 Eventually these deprecated directories should go away.
311 Tue Dec 19 19:16:37 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
313 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in inc.man. -snoop was
314 documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
316 Thu Dec 14 14:32:09 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
318 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
319 versions on ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/config, dated
320 12-07-00. This should prevent configure from failing
321 on newer operating systems because config.{guess,sub}
322 couldn't correctly identify them.
324 Thu Dec 14 1:30:44 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
326 * Fixed the circular dependency created when I moved
327 zotnet/mts to mts/generic and merged them into libmts.
328 mts/generic/client.c and mts/generic/mts.c are now in sbr/
329 (and thus in libmh), which makes libmh self-contained and
330 not depending on an external archive.
332 * All include statements now look for mts.h in h/. The
333 Makefiles and configure script have been modified so that
334 mts/generic is no longer built.
336 Mon Dec 11 22:08:07 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
338 * When Shantonu made the new libmts.a, he swapped $(MTSLIB) and
339 libmh.a in sbr/Makefile.in so that libmh.a comes first, but this
340 causes the build to fail on Solaris, because libmts.a has to get
341 ruserpass() out of libmh.a. Swapping them back to the way Ken
342 Hornstein's patch (which I applied on Jul 20) put them, with
343 libmh.a correctly coming second. If there are times when libmts.a
344 needs to come second, then it would appear there's a circular
345 dependency and someone (Shantonu?) did an mts merge incorrectly.
347 Fri Sep 8 01:36:23 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
349 * Took out bad time textual time zones like BST and JST.
350 I found them online somewhere, but am not sure if they're
353 Fri Sep 8 00:36:48 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
355 * Moved zotnet/mts to mts/generic. This code reorganization
356 makes the entire zotnet tree deprecated -- bboards is unneeded,
357 mf was was moved to sbr, tws was rewritten and moved to sbr, and
360 * Created a new static library called libmts.a used during
361 compilation which includes the generic mts code and the
362 smtp/sendmail code. This supercedes the functionality of the
363 old libsmtp.a and the remains of libzot.a.
365 * Updated header includes to reference the new location of mts.h
366 in mts/generic/mts.h. Also, update the configure and top-level
367 Makefile not to descend into zotnet. Also, they don't descend
368 into mts/mmdf and mts/sendmail (the sendmail code has been
369 merged into the smtp code).
371 * Added #include <h/nmh.h> to h/md5.h, since my compile was
372 complaining about implicitly-declared memcpy and memset, which
373 appear to be in strings.h. In any event, nmh.h should take care
376 * When doing a "make nmhdist", notice that the generated
377 snapshot does not include zotnet of the mts directories as noted
378 above. Since they are no longer compiled, and I don't see any
379 obvious code path to get to them, end-users should probably
380 not need them. If you think otherwise, turn Makefile generation
381 back on in configure.in and turn on recursion into those dirs
382 in the appropriate Makefile.in
384 Wed Sep 6 22:40:03 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
386 * Tracked down the problem in the new dtimep where time
387 zones were being radically misreported. It was because the
388 parser knew about military time zones (such as M or E) but in
389 some cases did not know about the textual representation of
390 some zones (like MET). When it encountered one of these, the
391 date parser misread MET as the military time zone T (well, first
392 zone M, then E, and finally T). I took military zones out, and
393 things seem much better. Also, the default behavior of parsing
394 time zones appears to default to GMT in the absence of better
395 info, which is less bogus than assuming the mail came from the
396 current time zone, which was the behavior in 1.04.
398 Thu Aug 10 13:22:13 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
400 * Decided that limiting the message number columns to 3 on my
401 scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD (to try to regain space taken by
402 extra date info) was ill-conceived. It's not that tough to get
403 past 999 messages, though I imagine it's rather rare to exceed
404 9999. Changed these to 4. Also put the "replied / encrypted"
405 column back in YYYYMMDD -- I've never seen it show anything but a
406 space, but that space is useful if you use scan, grep, and awk
407 (with the default field separator) to grab message numbers (I know
408 -- pick should really be used for these purposes...).
410 Mon Aug 7 20:11:09 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
412 * Modify umask set by mhshow to enable user execute bit, so that
413 viewers that create temporary directories (e.g., lynx) will be
416 Thu Aug 03 17:14:08 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
418 * TODO: Allow multiple simultaneous differing contexts, probably
419 each tied to a parent (terminal) process.
421 Tue Aug 1 10:48:05 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
423 * Makefile install rules should not look for generated files in
424 the source tree -- this will happen to work when configuring and
425 building inside the source tree but will fail when using an
426 external build tree. Fixed etc/Makefile.in.
428 Mon Jul 24 16:20:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
430 * When Shantonu wrote the new, more portable dtimep.lex, he left
431 out the #ifdef DSTXXX stuff for some reason. Not a good idea, as
432 that code is required for proper printing of numeric-offset
433 timezones that have daylight saving time. Without that code,
434 -0700 during DST gets printed as MST instead of PDT.
436 * Renamed DSTXXX as ADJUST_NUMERIC_ONLY_TZ_OFFSETS_WRT_DST and
437 added an explanatory comment by its #definition.
439 * Updated README.developers with the fact that zotnet/tws is going away.
441 Thu Jul 20 20:30:52 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
443 * Moved Kimmo's new "--with-hash-backup" to be output with the
444 rest of the --with options in the configure --help output. Also,
445 people did not preserve my alphabetization of the --with options
446 when they added new ones. Re-alphabetized.
448 * One more pass at README.developers now that it's clear that my
449 previously-suggested one-line autoconf-file commit can cause
450 unnecessary local makes and an out-of-sync stamp-h.in file, but
451 would not cause problems for other people using the CVS files.
453 * Ken Hornstein's SASL patch was not integrated properly with
454 Ruud's new merged mts/sendmail code. Kimmo has since fixed nmh so
455 it compiles, but according to Ken, the SASL stuff still does not
456 work. Integrating a patch from him for this.
458 * Last pass at README.developers -- Kimmo's 5-step commit was
459 overkill. You only need 3 steps, since configure.in is the only
460 autoconf file with the RCS $Id keyword.
462 * Applied Kurt J. Lidl <lidl@eng.us.uu.net>'s $MAILHOST patch:
464 I have a small patch that would be nice to be included --
465 basically, it allows the usage of the "MAILHOST" environment
466 variable, without having to have HESIOD turned on. I need
467 this functionality for my environment, where we have identical
468 /usr/local on all my machines (so I cannot just hardcode into
469 the mts.conf file), and I have multiple POP mail servers for
472 Modified inc.man to reflect that along with "pophost:" and -host,
473 $MAILHOST can now activate POP mail inclusion as well.
475 * Fixed warnings from diff on first-time install of nmh. Also
476 added 'echo's clarifying the etc file installation activities.
478 Tue Jul 18 19:36:59 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
480 * Added the answer to Dan's question in README.developers.
482 Mon Jul 17 19:10:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
484 * Clarified and made some corrections to Kimmo's README.developers
485 changes (BTW, if anyone can explain why the RCS Ids are able to cause
486 problems with the dependencies, please fill in the explanation --
487 I never encountered a problem with the old single-commit method).
489 Sat Jul 15 23:13:49 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
491 * Add configure option --with-hash-backup so the backup prefix can
492 be easily changed from "," to "#".
494 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that it works with any make.
496 * Use mkstemp in sbr/lock_file.c.
498 * Commits of autoconf-related files apparently can't all be done
499 in one shot due to RCS Ids changing when committing -- updated
502 Tue Jul 11 14:18:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
504 * Clarified post.man and send.man for those not completely up on
505 SASL terminology. "SASL encryption layers are not supported for
506 SMTP" means that encryption is supported for the authentication
507 but not for the subsequent data stream.
509 Sat Jul 8 01:36:19 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
511 * Applied Ken Hornstein <kenh@cmf.nrl.navy.mil>'s patches
512 implementing SASL support for POP3 and SMTP. If nmh is compiled
513 with SASL support, using the -sasl switch on the inc, msgchk,
514 post, and send commands will enable authentication encryption for
515 SMTP, and both authentication and data stream encryption for POP3.
517 Sat Jun 10 18:37:59 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
519 * Merged mts/sendmail functionality into mts/smtp; switching between
520 smtp and sendmail delivery method is now controlled by mts.conf.
522 * If tsort cannot deal with loops, in addition to defining tsort as
523 cat, also define lorder as echo.
525 * Removed uip/popi.c from list of sources.
527 Thu Jun 08 19:36:57 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
529 * New dtimep.lex didn't parse day names properly. Fixed. Also
530 clarified ambiguous comments preceding day_map[] array (from old
531 dtimep.lex) that probably led to the erroneous cp++ being added.
533 Wed Jun 7 20:52:33 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
535 * Added one more mkstemp invocation to uip/spost.c (which was in a
538 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to clean up permissions handling
539 and error handling in uip/inc.c.
541 Mon Jun 5 22:10:07 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
543 * Use cat instead of tsort if tsort cannot deal with loops in its
544 input (which is the case for tsort from GNU textutils).
546 Mon Jun 5 21:14:36 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
548 * If lockfile is present, and its dotlockfile program is setgid,
549 inc does not need to be setgid.
551 Sun Jun 4 21:35:40 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
553 * Added autoconf test for Miquel van Smoorenburg's liblockfile
554 library, as found on Debian systems.
556 * Added liblockfile support to sbr/lock_file.c.
558 Wed May 31 7:19:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
560 * Fixed up dtimep.lex a bit. Added back memory options for AIX to
561 increase available memory. Took out %option noyywrap, which
562 wasn't understood by AT&T lex, as well as the -i
563 case-insensitivity flag.
565 Wed May 31 07:40:45 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
567 * Added a lint target to the Makefiles and a check in autoconf
568 to determine whether lint or lclint exists on the system.
570 Fri May 30 19:21:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
572 * etc/Makefile.in was incorrectly installing mts.conf.in and
573 sendfiles.in -- fixed. Generated sendfiles script was not a
574 dependency of the `all' target, and was incorrectly included in
575 the distribution. Changed the suffix for the backed-up previous
576 versions of the etc files from the ambiguous .old to .prev. Added
577 call to diff -- only keep the .prev files around if different from
578 the newly-installed versions (intentionally didn't redirect output
579 to /dev/null so you'll notice when your changed versions are
580 getting moved aside).
582 * INSTALL never documented the etc/*.old thing. Documented the
583 new etc/*.prev thing (including a note to watch for diff output).
585 * Applied Alec Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu>'s dropsbr.c patch:
587 In the map_write routine, a call is made to map_open and this
588 call is supposed to set the "clear" variable to 0 or 1,
589 depending on whether the map file is empty or not. In
590 mh6.8.3, this worked because map_open would set "clear" by
591 calling the mbx_Xopen routine. In nmh, the code for mbx_Xopen
592 was merged into mbx_open, but the interface for mbx_open
593 doesn't support the clear variable, so that functionality was
594 lost. The map_open interface still contains "int *clear" in
595 the prototype, but never sets it.
597 My patch eliminates "clear" from the map_open interface (I
598 checked to make sure that map_write is the only client of
599 map_open). Furthermore, my patch also sets the "clear"
600 variable properly at the beginning of map_write by calling
601 fstat(). This eliminates the bug in that the value of "clear"
602 being used later in the routine was just stack garbage.
604 Having a bad value of clear causes this next bug to be
605 triggered: The fp file pointer was being opened with fdopen,
606 but in two of the three switch cases it wasn't being closed.
607 In certain cases, this was causing packf to run out of file
608 descriptors if you attempted to pack a large folder.
610 Mon May 29 7:48:15 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
612 * Moved the date parsing routines from zotnet/tws to sbr/ (and
613 tws.h to h/). Updated all source files to reflect to new location
616 * Rewrote dparsetime (in dtimep.lex -> dtimep.c) to replace the
617 old zotnet/tws/dtimep.c, dtimep.lex, lexstring.c, lexedit.c, and
618 dtimep.c-lexed. It should now work with flex (although untested
619 with lex), and requires no sed-ing. For now, I have the lexed
620 version in the distribution, so that end-users don't need to worry
621 about running it through flex/lex. I have not added back support
622 for guessing the time zone when it's not specified.
624 Sun May 28 17:44:15 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
626 * Added autoconf check for getutent().
628 * Changed uip/rcvtty.c and uip/slocal.c to use getutent() and
629 friends. Since I can only check on Linux, please check if
630 this works on other systems.
632 Sun May 28 14:58:49 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
634 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to uip/scansbr.c for more
635 checks for write failures.
637 * Unlink temporary file properly in uip/rcvtty.c.
639 * Moved viamail from bindir to libdir.
641 * Changed sendfiles into sendfiles.in, so that path to viamail
644 * Added gzip support to sendfiles.
646 * Added References header to replcomps and replgroupcomps.
648 Sun May 28 14:39:31 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
650 * Fixed m_getfld bug which caused segmentation faults when
651 incorporating messages which ended in multiple linefeeds crossing
654 Fri May 26 13:21:59 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
656 * msh has been unable to show MIME messages ever since 1.0. Alec
657 Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu> tracked down the problem to the
658 -show flag being passed to mhshow. mhshow is equivalent to the
659 old mhn -show, so we don't need the -show anymore. Removed it.
661 Fri May 12 02:51:21 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
663 * zotnet/bboards is not longer built by default. Goal is to move
664 the assorted functions in zotnet into sbr or some more logical
667 * Moved zotnet/mf to sbr, and changed mf.h references accordingly,
668 as well as Makefiles.
670 Thu May 11 02:21:34 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
672 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that both SRCS and OBJS aren't
673 seperately and redundantly defined, but so that OBJS is a
674 pattern-substituted version of SRCS with suffix .c -> .o. This
675 should make maintainability easier.
677 * Added section to MACHINES indicating what platforms nmh is known
678 to compile and work on, just to give users peace of mind, or
679 something. This is by no means complete or exhaustive, so add
680 whatever you know works.
682 Tue May 09 20:38:04 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
684 * Alphabetized Shantonu's $pop_kinds output on configure's "pop is
685 enabled" line. If POP3 is the only kind of POP enabled, say so,
686 rather than just saying "yes" (which is ambiguous).
688 * Fixed four warnings in Shantonu's new getpass.c. Needed to
689 #include <stdlib.h> for calloc(), <unistd.h> for ttyname(), and
690 "h/mh.h" for adios(). Also changed ch from char to int to get rid
691 of "comparison is always 1 due to limited range of data type" on EOF.
693 * Added steps to README.developers saying to change the version
694 number to X.Y.Z+dev. Did a little rearranging and changed the FTP
695 dir from /home/ftp to /var/ftp to reflect Doug's new machine.
697 * Changed configure.in to use gcc -Wall even without
698 --enable-debug, to prevent developers compiling optimized from
699 introducing warnings, and to give end-users a warm, fuzzy feeling
700 as they (hopefully) see no warnings come out (except perhaps on
701 the lex output file) even with -Wall.
703 * Renamed getpass() to nmh_getpass() since the prototype for
704 getpass() varies from OS to OS, and we want to _always_ use our
705 version of the function. Fixed all the callers to use
706 nmh_getpass() and added it to prototypes.h. Semi-arbitrarily
707 upped MAX_PASSWORD_LEN from 128 to 256. buf was being calloc()'d
708 and the memory leaked -- should have just been declared as static
709 char array. Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the
710 copyright message, as this version has been changed significantly
711 from the BSD version.
713 * Added "nmh-local functions to use in preference to OS versions"
714 section to README.developers (currently just says to use
715 nmh_getpass() instead of system getpass()).
717 * Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the copyright message
720 * Added mts.conf.5 page per Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s
723 This happens on solaris:
726 windex entry incorrect: mts.conf(5) not found.
727 No manual entry for mts.conf.
731 % echo ".so man5/mh-tailor.5" > mts.conf.5
733 done in the man5 directory. We need to add 'mts.conf.5' as a
734 reference sourcing mh-tailor.5.
736 Mon May 08 23:51:55 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
738 * Doug informed me that the way I had restored the "lost" version
739 histories was wrong, because `cvs checkout's of old versions of
740 nmh wouldn't work properly. It occurs to me that this could be
741 fixed by simply deleting those tags in the new-location *,v files,
742 but oh well. I'm putting everything back to the way Doug
743 originally had it. To get the old version history for a file that
744 used to be in the top directory, you'll need to "blindly" do a
745 `cvs log' there (even though you won't have a local copy of the
746 file in that directory). `cvs diff' will no longer be able to
747 diff pre-move versions vs. post-move versions -- you'll have to do
748 a lot of manual gyrations with `cvs checkout' and then use `diff'.
750 * I had alphabetized the --configure options in the --help output
751 awhile back, but Shantonu added --enable-apop just under
752 --enable-pop. Put it in alphabetical order and clarified what
753 --enable-apop does vs. --enable-pop and --with-krb4. Also changed
754 --with-mts help line from "mail transport agent" to "mail
755 transport agent/service" so the 's' in "mts" doesn't seem to come
758 * Added two steps to "releasing nmh" in README.developers. After
759 making the tarball, it's a good idea to diff the tree vs. the CVS
760 tree to make sure no files got left out, and then to chown the
761 files so that they're owned by root, preventing a Trojaning attack
762 by a malicious remote user with a UID matching yours.
764 * Changed DIFFERENCES to say that RPOP is not currently supported
765 rather than implying it by saying that APOP, KPOP, and POP[3] are.
767 Sun May 07 18:16:43 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
769 * Imported NetBSD version of getpass() and made extensive
770 revisions for compatibility with programs that pipe the password
771 to stdin, such as exmh.
773 * Removed tests for system ruserpass() which sometimes gave
774 phantom positive results. Also, bext to use internal functions if
775 we ever want to change .netrc format to something else, or access
778 Sat May 06 08:28:09 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
780 * Restored lost version histories for those moved files by doing a
781 manual `mv' in the CVSROOT on mhost. CVS badly needs a `cvs mv'
782 command so that you can move files (without having physical access
783 to the CVSROOT) without losing versioning. Put MACHINES back at
784 the top level as it needs to be read before building. Fixed DIST
785 variable in {.,docs}/Makefile.in to reflect that and to add
786 missing entry for "INSTALL" file.
788 Sat May 06 13:13:07 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
790 * Re-cleaned up nmh documentation (by moving things to docs
791 subdir) and modified Makefile & configure.in to handle the change.
793 Mon Apr 17 21:28:40 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
795 * Scott Blachowicz pointed out that the configure --help output
796 for --enable-masquerade was misleading. Clarified.
798 Mon Apr 17 19:01:00 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
800 * APOP support can be compiled in to inc and msgchk using
803 * To access an APOP host, specify -apop on the command line
804 along with any -host or -user option.
806 Fri Apr 14 23:10:44 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
808 * Upped the version number to 1.0.4+dev until the next nmh release.
810 * Added a "releasing nmh" section to README.developers, while the
811 process was fresh in my mind.
813 Fri Apr 14 18:21:34 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
815 * Added new files README.developers, ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6, and
816 ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html to DIST target in Makefile.in.
818 * Released nmh-1.0.4.
820 Tue Apr 11 21:37:03 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
822 * Applied Brian Campbell <bacam@tardis.ed.ac.uk>'s mhn.defaults.sh
825 It appears that there shouldn't be quotes around the %s in the
826 iso-8859-1 charset entry; xterm passes the remaining arguments
827 to the program, quoting them means that xterm thinks they're
828 part of the program's name.
830 This %s isn't the same as the "Insert content subtype" one from
831 mhshow-show-* -- it doesn't come from MIME headers and is safe not
834 Sun Apr 09 13:03:59 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
836 * added check in fmt_compile() to handle a single-character
837 format string. fmt_compile() depends on having an array of
838 format characters with an empty item at the end. A
839 single-character format would cause programs using this
840 function to segfault because the algorithm used to decide on
841 the length of the array mistakenly created a single-item array
842 when the format string was one character. This eventually
843 caused problems when the program attempted to test item+1
846 Thu Apr 06 21:53:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
848 * Richard Coleman threw out a lot of old MH-specific files in nmh.
849 Much of the stuff, indeed, is not worth saving, but there are
850 nuggets that are very worthwhile, and should probably be added
851 back in. Most important, IMHO, are the MH change logs, as they
852 can help answer questions like "Why is this code like this?" or
853 "How long has this been broken?" or "What was this ever used for?"
855 I've added a new file to the nmh tree called
856 ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6. It's cobbled together from the
857 mh-6.8.4/papers/mh*/MHCHANGES files. I've re-ordered the entries
858 to go from newest at the top to oldest at the bottom to match the
859 ChangeLog convention. Unfortunately there are no change logs for
860 versions of MH prior to 3 in the MH tar files available at
861 <ftp://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/mh>. Also, it appears to me that there
862 are MH-6.6 changes that aren't documented in the logs.
864 I've also added ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html. This is
865 based on mh-6.8.4/papers/changes/mh-changes.ms. The nroff format
866 and its "catman"-type output are a pain to deal with, but I was
867 loath to throw away the formatting, so I converted the file to
868 HTML. The only actual markup in the body are the "<B>" and "<U>"
869 tags, and "<" and ">" instead of '<' and '>', so it's quite
870 doable to view the file in plain ASCII mode as well. Note that
871 some of the changes this file documents as having been made in
872 MH-6.8.4 may not be present in nmh -- Richard started with 6.8.3
873 and later put in certain 6.8.4 stuff.
875 Wed Apr 05 21:09:28 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
877 * Applied Eric Schnoebelen <eric@cirr.com>'s mhshowsbr.c patch
878 fixing apparent bugs in Dan Winship's new security quoting code:
880 Since upgrading, I've been getting the following errors
881 while attempting to process some MIME messages:
883 (1) Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
888 (2) line 1/10 (END)Segmentation fault (core dumped)
890 (2) appears to be due to the testing of an unset pointer in
891 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux(). (1) appears to be caused by
892 mis-quoting a filename being handed to the shell in
893 mhshowsbr.c:show_content_aux().
895 Resolving the pointer reference issue in
896 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux() turned up a similar mis-quoting
897 problem in the routine.
899 Tue Mar 28 16:17:39 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
901 * Applied Todd.Miller@courtesan.com's patch to dropsbr.c to
902 prevent core dumping on packf. Here's the note from his message:
904 Since sizeof(buffer) == sizeof(tmpbuffer) packf will dump
905 core on a file w/o a From line with a line >= BUFSIZ.
906 I noticed this because I had a junk file in my mail
909 Fri Mar 17 11:59:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
911 * wesley.craig@umich.edu did not document his previous KPOP patch,
912 so I did so, and asked him to check what I wrote. Unfortunately
913 he didn't notice my misunderstanding of his patch. I wrote that
914 if you #define POPSERVICE "kpop", inc and msgchk will use KPOP
915 exclusively, but if you leave it as "pop3", you can use Wesley's
916 new -kpop switch on a given invocation. Instead, however, -kpop
917 turned out to be necessary on every invocation, and a KPOP user
918 complained. Applied Wesley's new patch, which makes things work
919 like I thought his original patch did. After that, did one more
920 clarifying pass to the documentation in inc.man and msgchk.man.
922 Wed Mar 15 18:45:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
924 * When I fixed the long-standing makedir() bugs in January, I had
925 the code call strtoul(..., 0), which I believed to be safe as all
926 modes specified as ASCII constants in the nmh code started with a
927 leading zero (signifying octal), which I did as it would work if
928 internal constants were ever changed to hex. Unfortunately I was
929 unaware of the "Folder-Protect:" .mh_profile entry, which
930 mh-profile.man documents as an octal-only constant, with no
931 leading zero required. I've changed the strtoul() call to an
932 atooi() call and removed the misleading leading zeroes on the
933 ASCII octal constants in the code and man pages. Also changed the
934 "Folder-Protect:" example in the man page to something more
935 interesting than a duplication of the default.
937 * When I added my --enable-masquerade option, you'll note that I
938 didn't make it --enable-nmh-masquerade. I find the --enable-nmh-*
939 options too wordy and I'm not sure why Richard went that route.
940 I've renamed them to just --enable-*, but the old versions will
941 still work as well (they just aren't advertised).
943 * Added a line to the "nmh configuration" output saying whether
946 * Added a new README.developers file. From the file:
948 This file is intended to provide a few tips for anyone doing
949 development on nmh. Developers who learn things "the hard
950 way" about the nmh codebase (as opposed to local info best
951 encoded in a comment) are encouraged to share their wisdom
954 Currently the topics are "autoconf files" and "directory structure".
956 Tue Mar 14 12:41:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
958 * Applied, after some finessing,
959 Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s --with-smtpservers patch:
961 Here's a patch that allows you to add
963 --with-smtpservers=<some.host.name>
965 to the ./configure command line to set the "servers: " line in
966 etc/mts.conf. Around here, we use "mailhost" so that all
967 machines in the current domain just talk to a central machine
968 and nothing else runs an MTA. Now, I can use
970 --with-smtpservers=mailhost
972 instead of having to remember to fix this by hand (and often
973 forgetting to do so!).
975 * Inspired by Simon's patch, added an --enable-masquerade option
976 to configure. It will set the "masquerade:" line of mts.conf.
977 You may specify a subset of the three types of masquerading, like
978 --enable-masquerade="draft_from mmailid", or leave off explicit
979 arguments to enable all three types.
981 * Alphabetized the --enable and --with options in configure.in and
982 INSTALL and added documentation of the two new options to the latter.
984 * Added new dependency for mts.conf: Makefile. If this isn't
985 done, then when you reconfigure nmh with new values for
986 --enable-masquerade or --with-smtpservers, you'll fail to get an
987 updated copy of mts.conf.
989 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtimep.lex patch:
991 It seems that some MUA's didn't handle y2k very well - ELM
992 seems to be one of them, and Ultrix's DXmail (based on MH!).
993 I've got a few emails this month that look like:
995 575 Jan 00 Xxxxxx Xxxx 3603 ...
997 22+ Jan 00 Xxx Xxxxx 1771 ...
999 The first has "15 Jan 100" as the date and the second has
1000 "19 Jan 00" as the date. The following works around this so
1001 that scan, show, sortm, etc work ok.
1003 I put Simon's patch under the control of a new #define called
1004 FIX_NON_Y2K_COMPLIANT_MUA_DATES. There's some commentary in
1005 acconfig.h about when you might not want to #define it.
1007 * Created new dtimep.c-lexed with Simon's change using dtimep.lex
1008 lexed on Solaris 2.6. Added missing dependency in
1009 zotnet/tws/Makefile.in for dtimep.c: dtimep.c-lexed.
1011 * Added scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD format files.
1013 Mon Mar 13 21:32:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1015 * Applied Sullivan N. Beck <sbeck@cise.ufl.edu>'s mhshow-suffix patch:
1017 With the patch below, you can add lines like:
1019 mhshow-suffix-application/msword: .doc
1020 mhshow-suffix-application/PostScript: .ps
1022 to the mhn.defaults file to append the given suffix to a
1023 scratch file. This allows applications which require a
1024 certain suffix to run properly.
1026 * Removed -force_html from lynx entry in mhn.defaults.sh (I
1027 believe older versions of lynx lack that option) and added
1028 "mhshow-suffix-text/html: .html".
1030 * Modified username_extension masquerading to only use the
1031 extended address on generated [Resent-]From: lines and SMTP
1032 envelope From:. With Neil's original implementation, nmh's global
1033 idea of the username was changed, which would result in inc lying
1034 and saying you had no new mail because it was looking for a
1035 mailbox called, for instance, "dan-nmh" (where username was "dan"
1036 and $USERNAME_EXTENSION was "-nmh").
1038 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtime.c patch:
1040 There's a wrap-around problem that affects the implementation
1041 of Zeller's congruence in dtime.c. This causes the day-of-week
1042 calculations to fail for dates after Feb 29, 2000 (probably up
1043 until some year far in the future).
1045 Mon Mar 06 12:20:20 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1047 * Applied Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s msh.c patch:
1049 I finally tracked down the problem in msh that was causing
1050 errors whenever I tried to examine a 'mmdf' style mailbox.
1052 It turns out that not enough memory was being allocated with
1053 calloc(), causing memory pointers to be overwritten and
1056 Fri Mar 03 16:07:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1058 * Changed the new "plussed_user" option to mts.conf's
1059 "masquerade:" to "username_extension" after getting feedback from
1060 qmail users, who use '-' as a separator rather than '+'. Removed
1061 checking of $USERPLUS variable. Now check $USERNAME_EXTENSION,
1062 which needs to include the appropriate separator for your MTA
1063 ('-', '+', or whatever) as its first character.
1065 Thu Mar 02 23:04:30 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1067 * Added a new "boolean" type to mh.h and TRUE and FALSE constants.
1069 * Added a note to DIFFERENCES stating that it's out-of-date
1070 (Richard was the last one to update it) and that we should
1071 consider only documenting incompatibilities with MH there.
1073 * Implemented (and documented) a third kind of username
1074 masquerading: "plussed user" masquerading. This one was suggested
1075 by Neil Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>. It's based on sendmail's
1076 "plussed user" feature, where mail sent to <user>+<string> will be
1077 delivered to <user>. When it's enabled, it's controlled by the
1078 $USERPLUS environment variable. How is it enabled? Well, that
1081 * Renamed the "mmailid:" setting in mts.conf to "masquerade:", and
1082 changed it so that rather than being a boolean, it can be set to
1083 any combination of the three values "draft_from", "mmailid", and
1084 "plussed_user". Thus it is now possible to enable the three types
1085 of masquerading individually.
1087 * Fixed a bug with "mmailid" masquerading (dating back to MH?)
1088 where if it was turned on, ','s would no longer be considered
1089 GECOS field delimiters.
1091 Wed Mar 01 23:30:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1093 * Changed the GECOS-field '&' translation behavior to be
1094 controlled by the BSD42 #define rather than GCOS_HACK, since it's
1095 apparently always appropriate on OSes where BSD42 is #defined, and
1096 never appropriate on any other OSes. Thanks to Kimmo Suominen for
1097 responding to my "What is this code here for?" comment in mts.c
1098 and explaining the feature.
1100 Mon Feb 28 21:50:29 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1102 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3+dev (ideally this should be
1103 done by whoever makes a release tar file, immediately after doing
1106 * Applied Paul Fox <pgf-spam@foxharp.boston.ma.us>'s scansbr.c
1107 patch, posted to comp.mail.mh, which he says prevents loss of mail
1108 when inc'ing into a full filesystem.
1110 * Changed "echo > stamp-h.in" in Makefile.in to "date > stamp-h.in"
1111 so that stamp-h.in will be different each time configure.in and
1112 related files are changed, making it easier to check it in (which
1113 is necessary to prevent unnecessary autoconf calls).
1115 * My declaration of initgroups() in slocal.c to eliminate the "no
1116 prototype" warning wasn't portable (FreeBSD 3.[23] choked). Now
1117 use AC_EGREP_HEADER to see where initgroups() is declared, if
1120 Sun Feb 20 12:17:15 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1122 * Fix security hole in mhshowsbr.c which allowed untrusted shell
1123 code to be executed.
1125 * Released nmh 1.0.3.
1127 Thu Feb 10 10:54:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1129 * Oops. %-escapes on mhstore lines in mhn.defaults.sh should not
1130 be surrounded by single quotes, as a shell is not spawned when
1131 just saving files, and the filenames will end up with literal
1132 quotes embedded in them.
1134 Fri Feb 04 12:29:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1136 * Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
1137 got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
1138 the -help output. One theory is that they were making reference
1139 to the fact that clearly you know about the -help option since
1140 you're currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea
1141 to overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
1142 supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
1145 The other theory is that because you can say something like
1146 "mhstore -" and get "mhstore: - ambiguous. It matches" followed
1147 by the same list of switches you get with -help, they were saying
1148 you can "sorta" abbreviate "-help" as "-". You don't get the
1149 "Usage:" string, though, so it's not really the same thing.
1151 Thu Feb 03 17:52:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1153 * Applied wesley.craig@umich.edu's KPOP patches. According to him:
1155 The following patch fixes a problem with requesting a
1156 service key for a machine that has multiple 'A' records. It
1157 also makes "-kpop" a command line option, for users who
1158 would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".
1160 Did no testing of the new features, as I don't have access to a
1163 * Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
1165 * Modified INSTALL and config.h.in to reflect the new -kpop feature.
1167 Fri Jan 28 17:39:24 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1169 * All %-escapes in mhn.defaults that actually expand to something
1170 should be surrounded by single quotes. Added quotes to the ones
1171 in mhn.defaults.sh that were missing them.
1173 * Added check for lynx to write mhshow-show-text/html line in
1176 Thu Jan 27 12:22:25 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1178 * makedir() had multiple bugs dating back to MH. An octal
1179 constant was apparently being interpreted as decimal, resulting in
1180 directories with no user read or execute permissions, making
1181 nested directory creation fail. And there wasn't even an
1182 _attempt_ to set desired permissions (e.g. from "Folder-Protect:"
1183 in .mh_profile) on the outer directories of a nested directory.
1185 * A second `make install' would always fail because the check for
1186 whether mh_profile.5 existed was written incorrectly.
1188 Wed Jan 26 02:22:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1190 * Added documentation on both types of masquerading to post's man
1193 Tue Jan 25 22:58:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1195 * Doug's portability fix of my setgid inc autodetection had a
1196 caching bug -- if you re-ran configure, uip/Makefile would be
1197 corrupted, and installation would bomb out on OSes where inc needs
1200 * Implemented a new kind of email address masquerading. Usually,
1201 when a user writes a custom "From:" header in a draft, nmh uses it
1202 rather than generating one. However, the user's true address is
1203 used in the SMTP envelope "From:" and is revealed in the "Sender:"
1204 header. Now, when mmailid is set to non-zero, the envelope
1205 "From:" uses the address specified in the draft "From:" header,
1206 and there is no "Sender:" header. This is useful when sending on
1207 behalf of a remote POP3 account or when remote mail robots
1208 incorrectly use the envelope "From:" in preference to the body
1209 "From:". This processing has only been implemented for post, not
1210 for the undocumented spost (which was already missing some "From:"
1211 processing that post has).
1213 Mon Jan 24 22:26:06 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1215 * Got rid of the rest of the gcc -Wall warnings that I didn't have
1216 time for on 1999-07-15 (and, it would seem, some new ones people
1217 introduced since then). The primary ones were the warnings that
1218 default prototypes were being used for [v]snprintf() and
1219 str[n]casecmp(). As of right now, there are _no_ compilation
1220 warnings except on dtimep.c-lexed (at least under AIX 4.1.5 and
1223 Sun Jan 2 23:42:18 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1225 * Move mhtest from bindir to libdir.
1227 * Move sendfiles from libdir to bindir.
1229 * Updated sendfiles manpage to reflect this change.
1231 * Added documentation for -build and -file switches to repl and
1232 forw manpages (patch from Peter Maydell).
1234 * Fixed interaction between specifying -cc in profile and -group on
1237 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1239 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
1240 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
1241 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
1244 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1246 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
1247 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
1248 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
1249 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
1250 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
1251 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).
1253 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1255 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
1257 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1259 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
1260 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
1261 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
1262 caught again. This works for now.
1264 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
1266 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1268 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
1269 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
1271 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1273 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
1274 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
1276 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
1278 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
1280 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1282 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
1283 changes. Both need more cleanup.
1285 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1287 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
1288 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
1289 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
1290 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
1291 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
1294 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1296 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
1297 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
1298 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
1300 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
1301 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
1304 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1306 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
1307 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
1308 to a directory on another device with more free space.
1310 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1312 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
1313 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
1315 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1317 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
1320 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
1321 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
1323 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
1324 macros, regardless of platform.
1326 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
1327 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1329 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
1330 with x-conversions=gzip.
1332 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1334 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
1337 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
1338 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
1339 implicit definition of ioctl().
1341 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
1342 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
1343 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
1344 want to mess with them.
1346 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1348 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
1349 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
1351 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
1352 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
1354 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
1355 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
1356 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
1358 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
1359 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
1360 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
1362 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
1363 function initgroups.
1365 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
1368 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
1369 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
1372 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
1373 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
1376 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
1377 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
1381 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1383 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
1384 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
1385 preventing compilation on at least linux.
1387 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
1388 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
1390 Thu Sep 09 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1392 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
1394 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
1395 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
1396 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
1397 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
1399 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
1400 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
1402 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1404 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
1406 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1408 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
1409 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
1411 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1413 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
1414 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
1416 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
1417 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
1418 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
1419 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
1421 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
1422 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
1424 Sat Jun 09 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1426 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
1427 substitute it for mktemp if available.
1429 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1431 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
1432 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
1435 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
1437 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
1439 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
1441 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
1442 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
1444 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
1445 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
1446 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
1448 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
1449 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
1450 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
1452 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
1453 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
1454 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1456 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
1457 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
1460 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
1461 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1463 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
1464 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1466 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
1467 <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1469 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
1470 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
1471 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1473 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
1474 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1476 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
1477 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
1478 <elleron@servtech.com>.
1480 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
1481 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
1484 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
1485 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
1487 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
1488 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
1489 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
1490 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
1492 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
1493 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
1495 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1499 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
1500 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
1501 would not be changed.
1503 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
1504 one from the Apache web server.
1506 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
1507 (this should have been done a long time ago).
1509 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
1510 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
1511 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
1513 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
1515 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
1517 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
1518 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
1521 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
1522 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
1523 removes a bad race condition.
1525 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
1528 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
1529 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
1530 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
1532 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
1533 sequence information.
1535 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
1536 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
1538 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
1541 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
1544 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
1546 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
1547 interpret 034 as octal.
1549 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
1551 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
1552 mhstore, and mhbuild.
1554 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
1555 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
1557 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
1558 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
1560 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
1561 in the c_cefile structure when building.
1563 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
1564 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
1566 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
1567 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
1568 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
1570 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
1571 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
1572 and mhshow. Updated man pages
1574 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
1576 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
1578 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
1579 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
1582 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
1584 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
1585 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
1587 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
1588 header field information.
1590 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
1591 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
1593 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
1594 values when parsing a content.
1596 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
1597 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
1599 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
1600 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
1602 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
1603 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1605 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
1606 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
1608 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
1610 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
1612 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
1614 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
1616 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
1617 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
1620 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
1621 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
1623 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
1624 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
1625 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
1626 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
1627 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
1628 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
1631 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1633 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
1634 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
1635 buffer length checks for this parameter.
1637 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
1638 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
1640 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1642 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
1643 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
1644 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
1645 of the limits on the length of command lines.
1647 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
1648 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
1651 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
1652 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
1653 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
1654 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
1657 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1659 * Released nmh-0.27.
1661 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
1662 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
1664 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
1665 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
1666 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
1667 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
1670 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
1671 mhbuild returns an error.
1673 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
1674 rename the draft file.
1676 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
1677 use a global variable.
1679 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
1680 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
1682 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
1683 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
1685 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
1686 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
1687 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
1689 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
1690 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
1692 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
1693 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
1696 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
1697 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
1700 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
1701 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
1703 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
1704 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
1705 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
1707 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
1708 to new function output_content_folder.
1710 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
1711 new function output_content_file.
1713 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
1714 to new function parse_format_string.
1716 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
1717 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
1718 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
1719 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
1721 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
1722 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
1723 message/external file from ftp.
1725 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
1726 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
1727 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
1729 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
1730 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
1733 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
1736 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
1737 new file mhstoresbr.c
1739 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
1742 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
1743 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
1745 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
1746 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
1748 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
1749 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
1750 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
1752 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
1754 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
1756 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
1757 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
1760 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
1761 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
1763 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
1766 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
1768 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1770 * Released nmh-0.26.
1772 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
1773 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
1774 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
1775 is still the same (dashstuffing).
1777 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
1778 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
1779 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
1780 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
1781 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
1783 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
1784 But it is not on by default.
1786 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
1787 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
1789 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
1791 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
1793 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
1795 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
1797 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
1798 number of the "cur" message when packing.
1800 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1802 * Released nmh-0.25.
1804 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
1805 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
1806 uses the original name of the library.
1808 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
1809 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
1812 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
1813 list_content and list_debug.
1815 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
1817 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
1818 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.
1820 1998-02-27 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1822 * Released nmh-0.24.
1824 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
1826 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
1827 are given, that order doesn't matter.
1829 * Fix bug in seq_list.c when realloc'ing for
1830 large sequence line.
1832 1998-02-23 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1834 * Released nmh-0.23.
1836 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
1838 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
1839 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan
1840 content, decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary
1841 string). I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
1843 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
1844 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
1847 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
1849 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
1851 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
1853 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
1854 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
1856 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
1857 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.
1859 * Add note to MACHINES file that on Linux, configure
1860 doesn't find the functions sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
1862 * Fix configuration for machines that don't have (or find)
1863 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
1865 1998-02-11 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1867 * Released nmh-0.22.
1869 * Add a configure check for sigsetjmp. Add some conditional
1870 #define's in h/signals.h in case it's not found.
1872 * Added additional notes about -auto switch in mhn man page.
1874 * Added note about MM_CHARSET environment variable to
1875 mh-profile(5) man page.
1877 * Fix signal problem in mhn.c (change setjmp/longjmp to
1878 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp).
1880 1998-02-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1882 * Released nmh-0.22-pre1.
1884 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
1885 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
1887 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
1889 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
1890 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
1891 entry point for parsing MIME files.
1893 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
1894 source message on the standard input.
1896 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
1898 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
1899 rather than -rfc934mode.
1901 * Fix mhbuild, so that Content-Description and RFC-822 comments
1902 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
1905 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
1906 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).
1908 * Restore HP specific code to zotnet/tws/lexstring.c. Apparently
1911 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1913 * Released nmh-0.21.
1915 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
1916 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.
1918 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what transfer
1921 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what character set
1922 to use for text contents.
1924 * Removed old hpux specific code from zotnet/tws/lexstring.c
1926 1998-02-02 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1928 * Released nmh-0.21-pre2.
1930 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
1932 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
1933 header fields as per RFC-2047.
1935 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
1936 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
1937 spaces between encoded word are.
1939 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
1941 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
1942 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
1944 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
1945 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
1946 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
1948 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
1950 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
1951 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
1953 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.
1955 * Added support for %(decode) to fmtdump.c.
1957 * check_charset() now accepts US-ASCII as a subset of any
1958 ISO-8859-X character set.
1960 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
1963 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
1964 permissions, not write permissions.
1966 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
1967 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
1969 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
1972 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1974 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
1976 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
1977 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
1979 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
1980 message contains valid character set.
1982 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
1983 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
1985 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
1986 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
1988 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
1989 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
1990 between an encoded word and normal text.
1992 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
1993 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
1995 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
1996 as a RFC-2047 header field.
1998 * The command install-mh now recognizes the switches -version
2001 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
2002 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
2005 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
2006 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
2008 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
2009 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
2011 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
2013 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2015 * Released nmh-0.20.
2017 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
2019 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.
2021 * Changed the default format file for mhl (mhl.format) to
2022 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
2023 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
2025 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
2026 and the To: line was missing.
2028 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
2030 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2032 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
2034 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
2035 watch the POP transaction.
2037 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
2038 first, and use it if available.
2040 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
2041 first, and use it if available.
2043 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2045 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
2047 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
2048 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
2049 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
2052 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
2053 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
2054 returns the state FLDPLUS.
2056 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
2057 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
2060 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
2062 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
2063 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
2065 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
2067 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
2068 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
2070 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
2071 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
2072 message to which you are replying.
2074 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
2075 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
2076 making group replies.
2078 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
2080 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2082 * Released nmh-0.19.
2084 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
2085 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
2087 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
2088 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
2089 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
2090 to the end of the man page.
2092 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
2093 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
2094 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
2095 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
2096 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
2097 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
2099 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
2102 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
2103 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
2104 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
2106 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
2107 the next available number above the message number you wish
2110 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
2111 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
2113 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
2114 file sbr/seq_print.c
2116 * flist will now update the current folder.
2118 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
2119 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
2120 but now undocumented.
2122 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
2125 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
2126 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
2128 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
2130 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
2131 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
2133 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2135 * Released nmh-0.18.
2137 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
2138 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
2139 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
2141 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
2142 retains the public/private status of sequences.
2144 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
2145 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
2146 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
2147 previous public/private status.
2149 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
2152 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
2155 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
2156 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
2157 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
2159 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
2160 take option to determine whether it should get current
2161 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
2162 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
2164 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
2166 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
2167 wait for stopped processes.
2169 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
2170 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
2172 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2174 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
2176 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
2177 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
2179 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
2180 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
2182 * Change the way that memory for message status is
2183 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
2184 the folder/message structure. This required changing
2185 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
2187 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
2190 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
2193 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
2195 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
2196 the debugging output.
2198 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
2199 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
2201 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2203 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
2205 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
2206 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
2208 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
2210 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
2211 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
2212 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
2213 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
2214 in the given sequence.
2216 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
2217 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
2218 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
2219 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
2220 subdirectories of a given directory.
2222 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
2223 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
2224 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
2226 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
2227 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
2229 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
2231 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
2234 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
2235 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
2236 fields are now calculated at runtime.
2238 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
2239 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
2240 are calculated at runtime.
2242 Sun Nov 30 19:14:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2244 * Released nmh-0.18-pre2.
2246 * Add paragraph to man page for install-mh and to INSTALL file
2247 about checking for global mh.profile.
2249 * Renamed m_find() to context_find().
2250 Renamed m_replace() to context_replace().
2251 Renamed m_delete() to context_del().
2252 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
2253 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
2254 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
2256 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
2257 adding message to folder itself.
2259 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
2260 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
2261 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
2264 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
2265 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
2268 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
2269 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
2270 is the same as the direct smtp code).
2272 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
2273 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
2275 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
2276 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
2277 code to use it yet).

2281 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.
2283 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never

2327 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
2329 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
2330 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
2332 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
2335 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
2336 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
2338 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
2339 number of refiled message.
2341 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
2343 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
2344 for return value of wait().

2354 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
2356 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
2357 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
2358 deal with binary messages, yet).
2360 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
2362 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
2364 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
2365 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
2366 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
2367 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
2368 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
2369 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
2371 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
2372 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).

2386 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
2389 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
2392 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
2394 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
2395 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
2396 which used unsigned chars by default.

2407 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
2409 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
2412 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
2413 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
2414 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
2416 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
2417 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
2419 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
2421 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
2422 they conflict with defines on AIX.
2424 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
2425 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
2426 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
2427 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
2429 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
2430 and put in own subroutine.
2432 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
2433 and put in own subroutine.

2436 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and
2437 refile.c to use new routine.
2439 Fri May 16 06:09:31 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2441 * Renamed m_seqok to seq_nameok.
2443 * Changed m_setunseen, msh, mshcmds, flist, and scan to use
2446 * Changed m_seqflag to return the number of a sequence rather
2447 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
2448 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
2450 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
2453 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before

2465 all selected messages from a sequence.
2467 * Added new function m_seqaddsel to m_seqadd.c, which adds all
2468 selected messages to a sequence.
2470 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,
2473 Thu May 15 00:53:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2475 * Renamed function pack_folder to m_packfolder, and moved it
2476 from uip/folder.c into its own file sbr/m_packfolder.c
2478 Wed May 14 23:38:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2480 * Changed function m_gmsg to m_readfolder. Renamed file

2517 * Released nmh-0.13.
2519 * Changed mhpath so it doesn't abort if a message sequence
2520 such as "mhpath all" expands to more than 1000 messages.
2521 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
2522 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
2525 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
2526 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
2528 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2530 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if
2531 necessary. So `folders' can now handle more than 300 folders.
2533 Tue Apr 22 14:01:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2535 * Change configure to use a compile check to see if the tm struct

2560 * Merge Linux patch sent in by Michel Oosterhof (original
2561 patch from bsa@kf8nh.wariat.org).
2563 * Document an undocumented MH feature. mhn -form mhl.null
2564 will suppress the display of the message header.
2566 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
2568 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c
2569 and mshcmds.c, rather than hard coding in /bin/cat.
2571 * Add mhnproc to the list of `procs' in mh-profile.man.
2573 * Add configure test for lorder and tsort commands.
2575 * Commented out the padding in the `msgs` struct in h/mh.h
2577 * Change m_gmsg.c to allocate elements to the `info' array by
2578 500 elements at a time (rather than MAXFOLDERS / 5).
2580 * Add note to man page for mhmail that zero length messages are
2581 not sent. Need to use -body "" to send empty messages.
2583 * zotnet/mts/mts.c : compare character with '\0', not NULL.
2585 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
2587 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
2588 folder/message structure when done with folder.
2590 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is
2591 defined even if message is missing "From " line.
2593 Mon Mar 31 03:37:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2595 * Released nmh-0.10.

2605 The "From " line is now removed from all messages.
2607 * inc now saves the date from the "From " envelope in the
2608 Delivery-Date header for all messages.
2610 * sbr/m_getfld.c: Clean up processing of Return-Path and
2611 Delivery-Date from the "From " envelope.
2613 Mon Mar 17 19:03:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2615 * client.c: cast iaddr to int before comparing return value
2616 of inet_addr with NOTOK.
2618 Tue Mar 11 04:38:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2620 * Grep test for signal names was failing on some OS'es because

2648 Mon Mar 3 00:18:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2650 * rcvtty.c : Changed to use #define UTMP_FILE (if exists) rather
2651 than hard coded "/etc/utmp".
2653 * Released nmh-0.08.
2655 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
2656 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of
2657 locking database itself.
2659 Thu Feb 27 05:28:09 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2661 * Added slocal action `mmdf' to deliver to a file in mmdf format.
2663 * Changed the slocal actions `file' and `>' to always deliver in
2664 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
2667 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
2668 rather than mmdf format.
2670 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
2671 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
2672 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
2673 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
2675 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
2677 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2679 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
2682 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2683 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2684 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
2686 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2687 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2688 rcvpack so you can choose the preferred format.
2690 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2692 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
2693 can still easily change this in config.h).
2695 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
2696 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
2697 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
2699 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2701 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather

2713 Tue Feb 11 01:29:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2715 * Add check to configure, so that if ruserpass, or _ruserpass
2716 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
2718 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
2719 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
2722 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
2723 built-in FTP client in mhn.
2725 * Added configure check for ushort and ulong. Change code
2726 to use ushort/ulong rather than u_short/u_long.
2728 * A couple of small cleanups in locking code.
2730 * Added configure check for gmtoff element in struct tm.
2732 * Added configure check for tzset.

2736 * Released nmh-0.06.
2738 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
2739 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
2741 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
2742 many such machines around anymore.
2744 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
2745 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
2747 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
2748 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
2750 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2752 * Check lex generated file in zotnet/tws and use
2753 pre-generated version if necessary.
2755 * Released nmh-0.05.
2757 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
2758 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
2759 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
2760 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
2762 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
2763 be linked in one pass.
2765 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2767 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
2768 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
2770 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2772 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
2774 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2776 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
2777 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
2778 become the current folder.
2780 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2782 * Released nmh-0.04.
2784 * Define ospeed and PC in termsbr.c is OS doesn't have
2787 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2789 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
2790 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
2791 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
2793 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2795 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
2796 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
2798 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2800 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
2801 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
2804 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
2805 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
2807 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2809 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
2810 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
2811 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
2812 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
2813 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
2814 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
2816 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2818 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
2819 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
2821 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
2822 a file (currently need to specify full path).
2824 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2826 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
2827 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
2829 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2831 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
2832 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
2833 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
2835 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2837 * Released nmh-0.03.
2839 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
2840 .mh_sequence file existed.
2842 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
2843 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
2845 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
2846 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
2849 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2851 * Changed flist option -unseen to -[no]all. Cleaned up
2854 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2856 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
2857 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
2858 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
2860 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2862 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
2863 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
2864 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
2866 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2868 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL
2869 and allocate its own buffer. Borrowed from zsh.
2871 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
2873 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2875 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
2876 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
2877 directory from where the source code is located.
2879 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2881 * Released nmh-0.02.

2888 Tue Dec 31 03:07:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2890 * Changed code to use strerror, rather than using sys_errlist
2891 and sys_nerr directly.

2902 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
2903 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path

2907 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2909 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
2911 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with
2912 macro defined on Solaris.
2914 Thu Dec 26 02:50:15 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2916 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
2917 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
2919 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
2920 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
2921 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man

2925 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2927 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker

2933 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2935 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
2937 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included

2940 Fri Dec 20 02:29:37 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2942 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
2943 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
2945 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2947 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
2948 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
2949 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
2950 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
2951 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
2952 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
2954 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2956 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
2958 * Released nmh-0.01.
2960 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
2961 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
2962 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
2965 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2967 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
2970 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2972 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
2973 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
2975 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2977 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
2978 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
2979 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
2980 script to find_program.
2982 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2984 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
2985 speed up -recurse option.
2987 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
2988 yet, but it compiles :-)
2990 * Changed default location for install to
2991 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
2992 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
2993 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
2996 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
2997 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
2998 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
