1 2008-10-23 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
3 * docs/MAIL.FILTERING: added note on removing procmail -f or
4 -r options to try to suppress generation of a "From " line on
7 2008-08-14 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
9 * test/setup-test: Don't run autogen.sh unless needed. Build in a
10 blddir under the temporary directory so as not to interfere with
11 whatever the developer may be doing in the source directory.
12 If the temporary directory already exists, rebuild and install it.
14 2008-08-13 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
16 * sbr/ambigsw.c: Send print_sw output to stderr. This avoids
17 strange problems with scan `pick -bogus`, not to mention being
20 * sbr/getans.c, sbr/print_help.c, uip/msh.c: Send print_sw output
23 * h/prototypes.h, sbr/print_sw.c (print_sw): Add FILE * argument
24 and send output there rather than to stdout.
26 * test/tests/pick/test-stderr: Add test that error messages don't
27 end up going to stdout.
29 2008-08-13 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
31 * uip/pick.c: Print matching messages immediately, instead of
32 waiting until the very end to print anything.
33 Ensure valid sequence name as soon as we parse it from command,
34 instead of searching the messages first.
36 2008-08-13 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
38 * uip/Makefile.in, uip/popi.c: Remove popi.c, which has been dead
39 since PatchSet 257 (2000/06/12 11:07:34 UTC).
41 2008-08-13 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
43 * h/mhparse.h: Move interfaces also used by mhbuildsbr.c here
46 * uip/Makefile.in (mhbuild): Build with mhparse.o.
48 * uip/mhbuildsbr.c: Drop the duplication of mhparse.c.
50 * uip/mhbuild.c, uip/mhlist.c, uip/mhn.c, uip/mhshow.c,
51 uip/mhstore.c, uip/mhtest.c: Drop check swdeclaration, which is
54 * uip/mhparse.c: Move some declarations to mhparse.h, and remove
55 'static' from the definitions here.
56 (get_ctinfo): Take magic mhbuild support from mhbuildsbr.c's copy,
58 (incl_name_value, extract_name_value): Move from mhbuildsbr.c to
59 support get_ctinfo change).
60 (get_content, open7Bit): Add Content-Disposition support, added to
61 mhbuildsbr.c's copy in mhbuildsbr.c r1.12 (PatchSet 549).
62 (InitText): Default to CHARSET_UNSPECIFIED instead of "US-ASCII",
63 as mhbuildsbr.c's copy did. Explain termproc.
64 (openBase64, openQuoted, open7Bit): Fix comment from r1.5:
65 suffixes, not prefixes.
66 (openMail): Explain showproc.
68 * test/tests/mhshow/test-cte-binary: Add test for
69 Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary (Debian #136976).
71 * test/tests/mhbuild/test-forw: Add an mhbuild test, testing forw
72 with and without RFC-934 mode. More mhbuild tests would be nice.
74 2008-08-13 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
76 * test/tests/bad-input/test-header: Add test for it.
78 * sbr/m_getfld.c: If we reach the end of the line without finding
79 a ':' when parsing a header field, treat that line as the
80 beginning of the body rather than blowing up. These messages are
81 usually spam, but it's nice to be able to at least scan them.
83 2008-08-12 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
85 * test/tests/mhshow/test-qp: Test various valid and invalid
88 * uip/mhparse.c (openQuoted): Simplify the decode-or-show for loop by
89 peeking ahead to the next byte(s) when encountering '=', and just let
90 invalid escape sequences through as literals (fixes bug #15245).
92 2008-08-12 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
94 * autogen.sh (new file): add script for running the GNU
95 autotools in the right order
96 * INSTALL: mention that you need to run autogen.sh if you
98 * docs/README.developers: mention autogen.sh rather than
99 suggesting running autoheader and autoconf by hand.
100 * test/setup-test: run autotools via autogen.sh
102 2008-08-08 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
104 * sbr/discard.c, sbr/m_getfld.c, uip/scansbr.c: Add support for
105 DragonFlyBSD stdio (from NetBSD pkgsrc).
107 2008-08-05 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
109 * uip/folder.c: chdir(nmhdir) in main rather than in dodir, which
110 is called many times. Drop the chdir in get_folder_info, which
111 served no purpose at all. If struct stat has d_type (BSD), use
112 that to skip processing (strcmp, stat, and so on) of message
113 files, mostly undoing the slow-down from the last change.
115 * configure.in: Call CHECK_TYPE_STRUCT_DIRENT_D_TYPE.
117 * aclocal.m4: Add CHECK_TYPE_STRUCT_DIRENT_D_TYPE from
120 2008-08-04 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
122 * uip/folder.c: Simplify dodir/addir/addfold. Dump hacky
123 over-optimization in addir that tried to avoid readdir after all
124 child directories had been read; this was also trying to support
125 symlinks to directories, but would have been failing (because
126 nlink may have gone to 0 with symlinks to directories remaining)
127 had the lstat usage been correct (lstat doesn't fail for normal
128 directories; should have used S_ISLNK).
130 2008-08-03 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
132 * test/setup-test: use 'set -e' so we stop on compile failure.
133 Configure --enable-debug for convenience in debugging.
135 * uip/whatnowsbr.c: bug #23319: rework the way we handle the working
136 directory when invoking the user's shell, so that we don't have
137 issues when the cwd contains a space or shell special character.
138 * test/tests/whatnow/test-attach-detach, test/tests/whatnow/test-cd,
139 test/tests/whatnow/test-ls: test cases for this.
141 * sbr/fmt_compile.c: add 'do { ... } while (0)' wrappers
142 to various multi-statement macros to avoid nasty surprises
143 if the macros are used in if() clauses.
145 * bug #23436: man/scan.man, man/forw.man, man/inc.man,
146 man/mh-chart.man, man/mhmail.man, man/mhshow.man,
147 man/mhstore.man, man/msgchk.man, man/packf.man, man/scan.man:
148 fix minor syntax errors groff warns about.
149 * test/runtest, test/README: allow test cases to report
150 that they have been SKIPped as well as PASS/FAIL
151 * test/tests/manpages/test-manpages - new test which runs groff
152 on the manpages and checks that there are no warnings.
153 * test/runalltests: ignore editor backup files
155 2008-08-03 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
157 * etc/replcomps, etc/replgroupcomps: Trim trailing whitespace from
160 2008-08-03 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
162 * sbr/fmt_compile.c: when doing an if-test on the result
163 of a function which returns a string result, check whether
164 the string is non-empty (as the documentation says we do).
165 Previously we were always testing the integer 'value'. Bug
166 spotted by Eric Gillespie.
167 * test/tests/repl/test-if-str: test case for this bug
169 2008-07-24 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
171 * test/setup-test: Run 'make clean' before building
173 2008-07-24 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
175 * test/runtest: cat test-temp-dir only once. Destroy and create
176 test Mail hierarchy here, so each test has its own independent
179 * test/setup-test: Drop needless pushd/popd, which don't exist in
180 sh anyway. Don't use aclocal, which is part of automake.
181 Don't create Mail hierarchy here (see test/runtest).
183 * test/tests/folder/test-create, tests/folder/test-total: Drop
186 * tests/pick/test-pick: Remove failing no-op test.
188 * test/tests/scan/test-scan: Write expected and actual output to
189 files and diff them. This way, if the output differs, diff
190 provides the FAILing exit code and shows the differences.
192 2008-06-12 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
193 * man/repl.man, etc/mhl.reply:
194 Add an attribution line when replying to messages.
196 2008-06-02 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
198 * h/mh.h, h/prototypes.h, sbr/done.c, uip/inc.c,
199 uip/mhbuild.c, uip/mhlist.c, uip/mhn.c, uip/mhshow.c,
200 uip/mhstore.c, uip/mhtest.c, uip/packf.c, uip/pick.c,
201 uip/rcvdist.c, uip/rcvstore.c, uip/sendsbr.c: when
202 building on gcc, use the noreturn attribute on various
203 functions (should improve code and avoid some spurious
204 'uninitialized variable' warnings).
206 2008-06-01 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
208 * docs/README.developers: update the bits about doing a
209 release announcement, now I've actually done one.
211 2008-05-22 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
213 * uip/scansbr.c: don't use MB_CUR_MAX if we aren't compiled
214 with multibyte support.
216 * uip/whatnowsbr.c: factor out common code for writing ls
217 shell command, and make it do more sensible buffer length
218 checks. Also avoid relying on the return value of sprintf(),
219 as some old systems don't return number of characters written.
221 2008-05-21 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
223 * sbr/utils.c (mh_xrealloc): don't assume realloc() can
224 handle NULL pointers; some non-POSIX realloc()s can't.
226 * sbr/dtimep.lex: add some table size declarations for the
227 benefit of elderly lexes with small defaults.
229 2008-05-18 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
231 * sbr/addrsbr.c: removed "err" from conditional, because gcc
232 correctly warned that it would always evaluate as true. It's
233 the address of a static array.
235 2008-05-16 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
237 * sbr/Makefile.in, config/Makefile.in: Don't use $< in target rules
238 in makefiles, as POSIX says it's only defined in inference rules.
240 2008-05-13 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
242 * configure.in, INSTALL: if --enable-masquerade is not
243 specified to configure, enable all supported masquerade forms.
244 This allows users to masquerade with the default
245 configuration. That seems to be more worthwhile now than
246 trying to prevent users from using it, especially with
247 single-user installations or those where a user can edit
250 2008-05-04 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
252 * bug #23167: sbr/ruserpass.c (ruserpass): make bad permissions
253 on .netrc be an instantly fatal error. Previously we returned
254 an error value; however, no caller was checking it. So now
255 ruserpass() has a void return type.
257 * bug #23163: various minor fixes for the benefit of
258 older Unixes (specifically SunOS 4):
259 reintroduce strerror() substitute implementation
260 provide memmove() substitute implementation
262 * bug #23163: fix accidentally broken 'build outside
263 source directory' feature
265 * bug #23162: sbr/dtime.c: fix stray HAVE_TM_GMTOFF that
266 wasn't updated to the new macro name.
268 2008-04-30 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
270 * mts/smtp/smtp.c: provide a callback for SASL_CB_AUTHNAME
271 (fixes issue with SASL sending the wrong username in some
272 circumstances). Thanks to <der_wachtmeister@freenet.de>
275 2008-04-29 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
277 * Revert previous attempt at fix for SASL issue as it
278 is the wrong approach.
280 * Fix in correct manner, by making sm_rrecord() and thus
281 sm_hear() set the length of the reply string correctly
282 (the SASL libraries now care if you pass in the wrong
285 * Correct various places in smtp.c where the reply string
286 might not have been correctly NUL-terminated. Includes a
287 fix for a particularly nasty and long standing screwup
288 where the buffer length counting in smhear() was totally
289 broken for continued lines from the server.
291 2008-04-29 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
293 * Cope with sasl_decode64() returning SASL_CONTINUE, as
294 happens with newer sasl libraries and LOGIN auth.
296 2008-04-27 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
298 * Updated some of the 'how to do a release' documentation.
300 * Upped the VERSION string to '1.3-dev', since 1.3-RC1 has
303 2008-04-27 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
305 * Released nmh-1.3 RC1.
307 2008-04-11 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
309 * acconfig.h, configure.in, sbr/dtime.c, sbr/pidwait.c,
310 uip/mhshowsbr.c, uip/rcvtty.c, uip/slocal.c, uip/termsbr.c:
311 move most remaining macros out of acconfig.h which is an
312 obsolete feature of autoconf
314 2008-04-05 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
316 * bug #18655: fix use of admonish() for a fatal error (should
317 be adios(); only actual effect would be wrong exit code).
318 Thanks to Craig Leres for spotting this.
320 2008-04-05 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
322 * bug #20028 (Debian bug 399271): fix code assuming that pointer
323 differences were 32 bits -- thanks to Dean Gaudet for the patch.
325 2008-01-25 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
327 * uip/mhshowsbr.c (show_all_messages): Be more generous when parsing
330 2007-11-04 Joel Reicher <joel@panacea.null.org>
332 * Changed done() link overriding to function pointer. Return type
333 is now void so that exit() can be used as done() callback. Dead
334 code return from all done()s removed, with return 1 in main()
335 following done() (should never be reached).
337 2007-08-21 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
339 * Red Hat Bug #253342: inc.c, utils.c, utils.h: When inc is run with
340 the -silent flag, don't exit(1) for no apparent reason.
342 2007-03-12 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
344 * bug #18630, #18631, #18632, #18634: various patches from
345 Craig Leres fixing error message argument problems.
347 2007-03-12 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
349 * bug #15212: configure.in, acconfig.h: remove configure test for
350 broken AT&T vi. This test was broken (it was always returning
351 failure even for non-broken vi implementations) and
352 unfixable. Nobody should be using AT&T vi any more so I have
353 simply moved it back to being a setting you can put manually into
354 acconfig.h if you must.
356 2006-10-24 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
358 * uip/sendsbr.c: with attachformat values of 1 or 2, add
359 name= portion to Content-Type header. This makes them
360 consistent with attachformat value 0. And it allows mhstore
361 to use that (file)name when extracting attachments.
363 2006-08-26 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
365 * configure.in: If we're not using dotlocking, there is no need to set
368 2006-03-30 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
370 * uip/sendsbr.c: with attachformat values of 1 or 2, only
371 generate Content-Disposition headers for MIME attachments, not
372 for the message contents themselves. Microsoft Outlook Build
373 10.0.6626, at least, doesn't show the message contents if they
374 have Content-Disposition.
376 2006-03-09 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
378 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c (decode_rfc2047): Don't close the iconv descriptor
381 2006-03-08 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
383 * (mh_strcasecmp): Rename the private strcasecmp function to
384 mh_strcasecmp. This keeps the newer gnu linker happy.
386 2006-03-05 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
388 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c: don't try to malloc 0 bytes if an RFC2047
389 encoded block is empty
391 2006-03-04 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
393 * etc/Makefile.in: use INSTALL_SCRIPT to install scripts;
394 this allows INSTALL_PROGRAM to be set to 'install -s' so
395 binaries are stripped on installation. Apparently the BSDs
398 2006-02-25 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
400 * uip/sendsbr.c: replaced st_mtim with st_mtime, that's what
401 it should have been. Added #include of h/tws.h to pick up
404 2006-02-20 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
406 * h/mh.h, h/prototypes.h, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, uip/send.c,
407 uip/sendsbr.c, uip/viamail.c, uip/whatnowsbr.c, man/send.man:
408 added -attachformat switch to send, to support alternate MIME
409 header contents when using -attach. See send man page for
412 * man/mhbuild.man: wrapped one appearance of "Content-Disposition"
413 with quotes, to be consistent with others.
415 2006-02-20 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
417 * h/utils.h, sbr/utils.c, uip/flist.c, uip/folder.c: Move duplicate
418 function num_digits into utils.c
420 2006-02-19 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
422 * sbr/m_draft.c, sbr/utils.c, uip/folder.c, uip/inc.c,
423 uip/mhstoresbr.c, uip/popi.c, uip/refile.c: Add create_folder()
424 function, replacing duplicate code during folder creation.
426 2006-02-18 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
428 * h/mime.h, h/mhparse.h, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, uip/mhfree.c,
429 man/mhbuild.man, docs/TODO: added support for an optional
430 Content-Disposition header in mhbuild (only). Its contents
431 are supplied between {}, positioned after the optional [], in
432 a mhbuild directive. If the contents do not contain a
433 "filename=" parameter, and the directive has a filename, or
434 something else that ends with "name=", then that will be used
435 to add a "filename=" parameter to the header.
437 2006-02-12 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
439 * docs/TODO: added RFC2183 to reference of RFC1806 for
440 Content-Disposition header.
442 2006-01-31 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
444 * uip/mhbuild.c, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, man/mhbuild.man: added
445 -nocontentid switch, to disable generation of Content-ID:
446 header in MIME messages. (Also added -contentid for
447 symmetry.) The default configuration of Microsoft Outlook,
448 Build 10.0.3416 in particular, doesn't see attachments in
449 incoming messages if there are Content-ID headers, see
450 http://home.cwru.edu/~wrv/eudoraoutlookfix.html. This allows
451 users to easily accomodate that by adding
452 mhbuild: -nocontentid to their .mh_profile.
454 2006-01-29 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
456 * bug 4360: uip/replsbr.c: remove trailing newlines from components
457 to fix bug with spaces at the end of Subject/References in replies
459 2006-01-18 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
461 * configure.in: use AS_HELP_STRING for formatting help messages
463 * configure.in, sbr/fmt_scan.c: add autoconf magic to support
464 old systems that don't support multibyte character sets
466 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: fix bug with insertion of newline being wrong if
467 the num function was used at the end of the format buffer
469 2006-01-17 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
471 * uip/post.c, uip/spost.c: in make_bcc_file (), use same
472 logic as in finish_headers () to detect whether there is an
473 existing From: line in the draft. If draft_from masquerade
474 flag is enabled, this allows the From: to be obeyed in the
475 Bcc, instead of the old behavior of always replacing it with
478 2006-01-17 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
480 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: more robust multi-byte/column support for field
481 widths, restoring right justification feature
483 2006-01-16 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
485 * h/aliasbr.h, h/rcvmail.h, man/Makefile.in, man/slocal.man,
486 sbr/lock_file.c, uip/aliasbr.c, uip/dropsbr.c, uip/post.c,
487 uip/slocal.c, man/mh-mts.man: remove remnants of code for MMDF
489 * uip/scansbr.c: multiply buffer size by MB_CUR_MAX so multi-byte
492 2006-01-14 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
494 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: Turn the PUTSF macro into a function capable of
495 handling multi column characters.
497 2006-01-07 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
499 * Remove sbr/strerror.c -- strerror(3) is defined in C89.
501 2006-01-06 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
503 * patch #3968: Move the add() function from its own file (add.c) and
504 into utils.c. There was also a duplicate add() function in mf.c which
507 2006-01-02 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
509 * Remove sbr/pwd.c file, moving the pwd() function into sbr/utils.c.
511 2006-01-01 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
513 * patch #3967: Create a mh_xrealloc function to prevent mistakes when
516 2006-01-01 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
518 * patch #3966: Create a mh_xmalloc function to prevent mistakes when
521 2005-12-24 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
523 * Bug #15285: Don't use $< in target rules in makefiles, as POSIX
524 says it's only defined in inference rules. (BSD make was expanding
525 $< to the empty string in the rule for building sbr/dtimep.c, which
526 causes lex to apparently hang because it's reading from stdin.)
528 2005-12-24 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
530 * Completely redo db library checking -- we now check for working
531 (include file, library) pairs rather than checking for headers and
532 libraries separately. We also now provide --with-ndbm=lib and
533 --with-ndbmheader=header options to configure to handle situations
534 where configure's autodetection fails.
536 2005-12-21 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
538 * Fix stupid accidental dependence on a bash quirk in previous
539 configure script change.
541 2005-12-15 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
543 * Improve checking for Berkeley db libraries: configure should now
544 find a suitable library on systems with new gdbm where
545 compatibility functions are in the gdbm_compat library, and on
548 2005-12-13 Michael Forrest <mef@computer.org>
550 * Fedora Bug #163760: sbr/context_read.c (context_read): Ensure that
551 the context is only read once.
553 2005-12-12 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
555 * uip/sendsbr.c (annoaux): Fix the call to annotate() fixing a bug
556 which prevented repl from properly annotating messages.
558 2005-12-07 Jon Steinhart <nmh@fourwinds.com>
560 * Fixed a bug where anno -append put the headers in the wrong place
561 if applied to a message that didn't contain any headers.
563 * Added a special value of "all" to the -number option that causes
564 anno -delete to delete all matching components instead of just
567 * Added new -preserve and -nopreserve options. Using -preserve
568 retains the original last accessed and last modified times on
571 2005-12-05 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
573 * Fedora Bug #174983: configure.in: Fix the AC_PATH_PROG default when
574 vi isn't found during build.
576 2005-11-19 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
578 * bug #14977: sbr/context_read.c: special case an MHCONTEXT of
579 "/dev/null" and don't try to lock it.
581 * bug #9228, debian bug #146449: man/mh-profile.man: make it clearer
582 that lower case environment variables (and in particular mheditor)
583 are internal to nmh and not intended to be set by the user.
585 2005-11-09 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
587 * sbr/mf.c: fix buffer overrun with absurdly long addresses
588 (only causes crashes if scan is run with '-width 16536' or similar)
590 * bug #7917: sbr/context_foil.c, sbr/context_read.c,
591 sbr/context_save.c: mark 'no context' with NULL rather than
592 "/dev/null" so we don't inadvertently try to lock /dev/null (which
593 takes up to a minute in some locking configurations and makes post
596 * patch #3913: uip/post.c: pass some globals into sm_init() so that
597 it uses SASL if necessary. (This bug was preventing Bcc'd emails
598 from being sent via SASL authenticated SMTP.)
600 * bug #9813: uip/rmf.c: don't crash if there's no Current-Folder
601 entry in the context file.
603 2005-11-13 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
605 * bug #7833: uip/Makefile.in: remove link to install-mh that caused
606 problems on some systems
608 * bug #739: Makefile.in: install target now depends on all to avoid
609 problem on case-insensitive file systems with the INSTALL file
611 2005-11-10 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
613 * Fedora Bug #172838: configure.in: Fix the AC_PATH_PROG default when
614 sendmail isn't found during build.
616 2005-11-09 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
618 * h/aliasbr.h: fix a non-ANSI prototype.
620 2005-11-08 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
622 * Simon Burge: acconfig.h, configure.in, uip/rcvtty.c, uip/slocal.c:
623 fix to handle getutent() on NetBSD
625 * INSTALL, README, docs/README.about, man/nmh.man: update most
626 references to the web page and mailing list locations
628 * bug #10230: etc/Makefile.in, man/Makefile.in, uip/Makefile.in:
629 Michael De La Rue: prepend DESTDIR to install locations
631 * configure.in, */Makefile.in, mts/smtp/smtp.c: replace obsolete
634 2005-11-06 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
636 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, sbr/fmt_scan.c, h/prototypes.h: fix various
637 possible overruns of the buffers in fmt_scan() which would cause
638 crashes if scan was run with '-width 16536' or similar.
640 * uip/popsbr.c: fix compile error which only showed up if nmh
641 was configured with --enable-apop.
643 * Debian Bug# 245932, RedHat Bug# 172388: uip/mhparse.c: don't
644 crash when handling a multipart MIME message with an invalid
645 Content-Type header (file handle was being fclose()d twice).
647 * sbr/Makefile.in: adjust lex command to work on both old and
648 new versions of flex.
650 * configure.in: add an AC_PREREQ() so autoconf 2.13 gives a helpful
651 error message and the Debian autoconf-version-guessing wrapper
652 doesn't guess wrongly.
654 2005-11-02 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
656 * Debian Bug# 320069: Nick Rusnov: uip/popsbr.c: fail when
657 kpop connection attempted without KPOP support compiled in
659 * Debian Bug# 320090: Nick Rusnov: sbr/Makefile.in: fix for newer
660 version of flex and remove autogenerated file from cvs
662 * patch #1155: uip/flist.c: speed up flist by skipping stat on
663 files with numbers as names
665 * docs/Makefile.in: include new files in distribution
667 2005-10-11 Bill Wohler <wohler@newt.com>
669 * docs/FAQ: fold questions into MH FAQ and distribute that instead
671 2005-10-05 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
673 * Harald Geyer: h/mh.h, uip/replsbr.c: back out previous change
674 (fork/vfork) and replace with code that handles the issue directly
676 2005-05-18 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
678 * Debian Bug# 143485: Nick Rusnov: h/mh.h: use fork instead of
681 * Debian Bug# 261592: Harald Geyer: uip/mhlsbr.c, uip/replsbr.c:
682 test/report error writing to stdout
684 * mts/smtp/smtp.c, uip/popsbr.c: correct SASL include file locations
686 * docs/COMPLETION-BASH: bash completion definitions from Debian
688 * patch #2863: savannah@brisammon.fastmail.fm: sbr/folder_read.c:
689 fix a bug affecting AFS where nmh was setting the READONLY flag
690 for a folder even when you do have write access to the folder
692 * Carl Mummert: h/fmt_compile.h, man/mh-format.man,
693 sbr/fmt_compile.c, sbr/fmt_scan.c: add unquote() function for
694 removing quotes from RFC-2822 encoded headers
696 2005-02-23 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
698 * use iconv to convert RFC-2047 encoded headers to the
699 character set used by the current locale
701 * sbr/folder_read.c fix Debian bug #202667: crash when a
702 message's filename overflows an int when converted
704 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
705 versions (from automake 1.9.5)
707 2005-02-21 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
709 * sbr/getpass.c fix bug where inc crashed on failing to reopen
712 2005-01-27 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
714 * Added -proxy option to inc and msgchk. Based on old patch
715 from Michael Richardson.
717 * On systems where it is available, use nl_langinfo to get the
718 character set if MM_CHARSET is unset
720 2005-01-21 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
722 * sbr/check_charset.c US-ASCII is a subset of UTF-8 so can be
723 handled directly when UTF-8 is being used
725 2004-12-17 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
727 * uip/mhmisc.c Fix -part option to mhshow/mhlist/mhstore to
728 find sub-parts of the specified part
730 2004-11-19 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
732 * h/prototypes.h, sbr/folder_addmsg.c, uip/mhstoresbr.c,
733 uip/rcvstore.c, uip/refile.c: Added mail directory argument to
734 folder_addmsg in order to make it possible to provide a path to
735 the ext_hook call that is mailpath-based. A problem existed when
736 a folder was a symbolic link and the pwd call would return the
737 path relative to the filesystem, not to mailpath. A new argument
738 was needed because there was otherwise no reasonable way to get
741 2004-11-16 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
743 * sbr/folder_pack.c: Fixed problem where the refile hook was being
744 called after a message was renamed so that it wasn't around for
745 the hook. The hook is now called before the message file is
748 * sbr/folder_addmsg.c: Fixed wrong directory for hook when
749 refiling with -src option.
751 2004-10-15 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
753 * uip/sortm.c: Fixed calling of external hooks.
755 2004-10-12 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
757 * uip/inc.c: Fixed another weird bug caused by the static
758 mailpath being overwritten.
760 * uip/sendsbr.c: Fixed bug that caused anno to mangle headers.
762 * sbr/lock_file.c: Fixed strange bug that prevented a lock from
763 ever being obtained if getting it failed the first time. The
764 problem was that the string of XXXXXX that is required by
765 mkstemp() was overwritten the first time through, and so all
766 subsequent times failed because mkstemp() failed. The fix
767 reinitializes the tmp file string.
769 * uip/inc.c: Fixed bug in which the static maildir was overwritted
770 if a format string was read from the profile.
772 * sbr/folder_delmsgs.c: Fixed bug that was producing an incorrect
773 path for the external hook.
775 2003-10-06 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
777 * uip/slocal.c, configure.in: db configuration fix for Debian; yet
778 another location for ndbm.
780 2003-09-30 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
782 * Fix 'pick' so handling of options "-list" and "-seq" are
784 * Fix 'inc' realloc error when bringing in more than 100 msgs
786 * Patches submitted by Nick Rusnov from Debian archive applied:
789 136976 - Handle binary content messages
790 143427 - mh-format.man typo
791 144098 - 'spost; should have same behavior as 'post'
792 w.r.t. mts.conf masquerade line
793 149745 - slocal ignores 'N' result of previous command
794 152728 - increase SMTP timeouts to conform to RFC 1123
795 The timeouts suggested by the RFC seem long
796 to me - but the RFC is still listed as active.
797 181867 - typo for nmh.man
799 2003-08-10 Jeffrey C Honig <jch@honig.net>
801 * Fix problem where parsing of address/date fields in fmt_compile
802 is optimized to the first instance. The first instance may be in
803 contitional code which will result in cached data to
804 be used. Instead, convert c_flags to a flags field from a boolean
805 and parse on the first use.
806 * Remove some unused flag bits.
808 Fri Jul 01 22:02:00 2003 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
810 * Applied fixes for configuration problems with Solaris and
811 systems with gdbm instead of db1 (includes bug #2024)
813 #578 - repl leaks umask
814 #1393 - sortm core dumps
815 #1650 - msh leaks file descriptors
816 #1730 - Double free() in mhfree.c:free_encoding()
817 #3356 - In-Reply-To header in default replcomps should be
819 * Revised man page for mh-format (bug #2031)
820 * New replcomps, etc, with Fcc: +outbox in default versions
822 Sat Mar 17 03:18:15 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
824 * Ken Hornstein's configure.in Cyrus SASL checks were doing
825 `x"$with_cyrus_sasl" != "no"' instead of `... != x"no"'.
827 Tue Mar 06 21:04:27 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
829 * Found some historical information about MH in RFC 808.
830 Supplemented it with info from Jerry Peek's MH book and added it
831 to docs/README.about.
833 Tue Feb 6 20:35:40 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
835 * sbr/dtime.c Use the same Y2K correction code as dtimep.lex
837 * sbr/dtimep.lex Restrict the parser to accept either
838 a numerical timezone offset, or a symbolic one (e.g. EST),
839 but not both (Since "2000 -400 EDT" might cause a double
840 subtraction of 60 minutes if both are parsed. One should be
843 Mon Feb 05 20:22:54 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
845 * -L isn't sufficient for specifying the path of the Cyrus SASL
846 shared library. That'll allow us to link successfully, but on
847 many/most OSes that won't allow us to find libsasl at runtime. On
848 Solaris, we need to specify the library path with -R as well (or
849 else the user will have to use the $LD_LIBRARY_PATH kludge, which
850 is considered harmful). This fix should be extended to other OSes
853 * Print whether we have SASL support in the "nmh configuration"
854 summary configure prints out.
856 * Say in README.developers to use `\date' in case anyone is like
857 me and has `date' aliased in their shell to use a nonstandard (but
858 subjectively more readable) format.
860 Thu Jan 25 21:15:52 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
862 * man/mh-chart.man has updated synposes of
865 Tue Jan 23 20:26:15 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
867 * etc/digestcomps tried to force dates into a
868 19xx when it's not necessary.
870 Fri Jan 19 21:22:08 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
872 * First round of manpage updates finished. They
873 are standardized on -man macros, with minimal
876 * man/tmac.h.in is no longer needed, since the
877 manpages do not depend on them anymore. Note:
878 strict "man" programs that didn't allow ".so"
879 sourcing outside the man tree will now format
880 the man pages correctly.
882 * man/vmh.1 is no longer built, since uip/vmh isn't
884 Tue Jan 9 6:01:22 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
886 * Finished manpages ali-prev
888 * Removed deprecated files from the repository.
889 Specifically, those rooted in zotnet/ and mts/sendmail
890 mts/mmdf. "cvs update -dP" will give a pruned directory
893 * Updated docs/Makefile.in to include README.manpages, and
894 uip/Makefile.in to include popi.c (which isn't being built,
895 though). This allows "make nmhdist" to create an archive that
896 is file-for-file identical to the current cvs repository.
898 Sun Dec 31 20:48:50 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
900 * Create docs/README.manpages, which details
901 the formatting rules I've been using.
905 Sat Dec 30 9:50:13 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
907 * Created a new file "DATE" to hold the date
908 of the most recent nmh release. This date will be
909 used in the manpages.
911 * Updated docs/README.developers to add the step
912 of updating DATE. Also, updated configure to
913 read in the contents of the file as the variable
916 * Started work on updating man pages, with only
917 ali finished so far. Changes: 1) no dependence
918 on an external macro file, 2) uses only
919 -man macros (although I may be mistaken in this),
920 3) syntax in the SYNOPSIS is a little more
921 in line with standard UNIX documentation, such as
922 bold flags and italicized parameters.
924 Sun Dec 24 10:06:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
926 * Updated INSTALL with information about the
927 --with-locking option.
929 * Fixed the Hesiod tests in configure.in. In
930 systems where res_send was in -lresolv, this
931 information was not being communicated to the
932 HESIOD_LIBS var. Now, if res_send is not found
933 in the default libraries, it's assumed to be
934 in -lresolv, and thus -lresolv is appended to
935 HESIOD_LIBS, which will need that to avoid
936 undefined symbols problems.
938 * Fixed the Kerberos tests in configure.in. New
939 versions of Kerberos 5 have renamed -lcrypto
940 to -lk5crypto (circa krb5 1.1 or thereabouts). The
941 new test tries to determine if -lk5crypto exists. If so,
942 this is a new krb5 system. If not, test for -lcrypto
943 and the rest of old krb5. If that fails, look
944 for a genuine krb4 installation.
946 Fri Dec 22 22:08:51 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
948 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in msgchk.man.
949 -snoop was documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
951 Fri Dec 22 23:42:16 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
953 * Made a new ./configure option called
954 "--with-locking" that allows the file
955 locking mechanism to be chosen there instead of
956 requiring a manual edit of config.h.
958 * If the option is not explicitly set, or an
959 invalid option is specified, "dot" locking is
960 chosen. Valid options are "dot", "fcntl",
961 "flock", and "lockf". We need a way to tell
962 the user that these are the valid options, and
963 change the flag "--with-locking" if it's not
966 Fri Dec 22 19:21:29 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
968 * Remove the lex-specific memory hints at the
969 beginning of sbr/dtimep.lex. We've already
970 committed to supporting flex only, since
971 lex does not easily allow us to parse a single
972 string, as well as other problems documented
973 below and on nmh-workers.
975 * Added a switch statement to configure.in to
976 test for Mac OS X. If this is the case, LDFLAGS
977 should not contain "-s" since the linker rejects
980 * Updated MACHINES to include Mac OS X Public Beta,
981 as well as Linux 2.4 running glibc 2.2.
983 Wed Dec 20 16:00:46 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
985 * Marked deprecated directories in docs/README.developers
986 as deprecated, with pointers to the new code location.
987 Eventually these deprecated directories should go away.
989 Tue Dec 19 19:16:37 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
991 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in inc.man. -snoop was
992 documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
994 Thu Dec 14 14:32:09 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
996 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
997 versions on ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/config, dated
998 12-07-00. This should prevent configure from failing
999 on newer operating systems because config.{guess,sub}
1000 couldn't correctly identify them.
1002 Thu Dec 14 1:30:44 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1004 * Fixed the circular dependency created when I moved
1005 zotnet/mts to mts/generic and merged them into libmts.
1006 mts/generic/client.c and mts/generic/mts.c are now in sbr/
1007 (and thus in libmh), which makes libmh self-contained and
1008 not depending on an external archive.
1010 * All include statements now look for mts.h in h/. The
1011 Makefiles and configure script have been modified so that
1012 mts/generic is no longer built.
1014 Mon Dec 11 22:08:07 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1016 * When Shantonu made the new libmts.a, he swapped $(MTSLIB) and
1017 libmh.a in sbr/Makefile.in so that libmh.a comes first, but this
1018 causes the build to fail on Solaris, because libmts.a has to get
1019 ruserpass() out of libmh.a. Swapping them back to the way Ken
1020 Hornstein's patch (which I applied on Jul 20) put them, with
1021 libmh.a correctly coming second. If there are times when libmts.a
1022 needs to come second, then it would appear there's a circular
1023 dependency and someone (Shantonu?) did an mts merge incorrectly.
1025 Fri Sep 8 01:36:23 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1027 * Took out bad time textual time zones like BST and JST.
1028 I found them online somewhere, but am not sure if they're
1031 Fri Sep 8 00:36:48 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1033 * Moved zotnet/mts to mts/generic. This code reorganization
1034 makes the entire zotnet tree deprecated -- bboards is unneeded,
1035 mf was was moved to sbr, tws was rewritten and moved to sbr, and
1038 * Created a new static library called libmts.a used during
1039 compilation which includes the generic mts code and the
1040 smtp/sendmail code. This supercedes the functionality of the
1041 old libsmtp.a and the remains of libzot.a.
1043 * Updated header includes to reference the new location of mts.h
1044 in mts/generic/mts.h. Also, update the configure and top-level
1045 Makefile not to descend into zotnet. Also, they don't descend
1046 into mts/mmdf and mts/sendmail (the sendmail code has been
1047 merged into the smtp code).
1049 * Added #include <h/nmh.h> to h/md5.h, since my compile was
1050 complaining about implicitly-declared memcpy and memset, which
1051 appear to be in strings.h. In any event, nmh.h should take care
1054 * When doing a "make nmhdist", notice that the generated
1055 snapshot does not include zotnet of the mts directories as noted
1056 above. Since they are no longer compiled, and I don't see any
1057 obvious code path to get to them, end-users should probably
1058 not need them. If you think otherwise, turn Makefile generation
1059 back on in configure.in and turn on recursion into those dirs
1060 in the appropriate Makefile.in
1062 Wed Sep 6 22:40:03 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1064 * Tracked down the problem in the new dtimep where time
1065 zones were being radically misreported. It was because the
1066 parser knew about military time zones (such as M or E) but in
1067 some cases did not know about the textual representation of
1068 some zones (like MET). When it encountered one of these, the
1069 date parser misread MET as the military time zone T (well, first
1070 zone M, then E, and finally T). I took military zones out, and
1071 things seem much better. Also, the default behavior of parsing
1072 time zones appears to default to GMT in the absence of better
1073 info, which is less bogus than assuming the mail came from the
1074 current time zone, which was the behavior in 1.04.
1076 Thu Aug 10 13:22:13 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1078 * Decided that limiting the message number columns to 3 on my
1079 scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD (to try to regain space taken by
1080 extra date info) was ill-conceived. It's not that tough to get
1081 past 999 messages, though I imagine it's rather rare to exceed
1082 9999. Changed these to 4. Also put the "replied / encrypted"
1083 column back in YYYYMMDD -- I've never seen it show anything but a
1084 space, but that space is useful if you use scan, grep, and awk
1085 (with the default field separator) to grab message numbers (I know
1086 -- pick should really be used for these purposes...).
1088 Mon Aug 7 20:11:09 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1090 * Modify umask set by mhshow to enable user execute bit, so that
1091 viewers that create temporary directories (e.g., lynx) will be
1092 able to access them.
1094 Thu Aug 03 17:14:08 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1096 * TODO: Allow multiple simultaneous differing contexts, probably
1097 each tied to a parent (terminal) process.
1099 Tue Aug 1 10:48:05 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
1101 * Makefile install rules should not look for generated files in
1102 the source tree -- this will happen to work when configuring and
1103 building inside the source tree but will fail when using an
1104 external build tree. Fixed etc/Makefile.in.
1106 Mon Jul 24 16:20:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1108 * When Shantonu wrote the new, more portable dtimep.lex, he left
1109 out the #ifdef DSTXXX stuff for some reason. Not a good idea, as
1110 that code is required for proper printing of numeric-offset
1111 timezones that have daylight saving time. Without that code,
1112 -0700 during DST gets printed as MST instead of PDT.
1114 * Renamed DSTXXX as ADJUST_NUMERIC_ONLY_TZ_OFFSETS_WRT_DST and
1115 added an explanatory comment by its #definition.
1117 * Updated README.developers with the fact that zotnet/tws is going away.
1119 Thu Jul 20 20:30:52 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1121 * Moved Kimmo's new "--with-hash-backup" to be output with the
1122 rest of the --with options in the configure --help output. Also,
1123 people did not preserve my alphabetization of the --with options
1124 when they added new ones. Re-alphabetized.
1126 * One more pass at README.developers now that it's clear that my
1127 previously-suggested one-line autoconf-file commit can cause
1128 unnecessary local makes and an out-of-sync stamp-h.in file, but
1129 would not cause problems for other people using the CVS files.
1131 * Ken Hornstein's SASL patch was not integrated properly with
1132 Ruud's new merged mts/sendmail code. Kimmo has since fixed nmh so
1133 it compiles, but according to Ken, the SASL stuff still does not
1134 work. Integrating a patch from him for this.
1136 * Last pass at README.developers -- Kimmo's 5-step commit was
1137 overkill. You only need 3 steps, since configure.in is the only
1138 autoconf file with the RCS $Id keyword.
1140 * Applied Kurt J. Lidl <lidl@eng.us.uu.net>'s $MAILHOST patch:
1142 I have a small patch that would be nice to be included --
1143 basically, it allows the usage of the "MAILHOST" environment
1144 variable, without having to have HESIOD turned on. I need
1145 this functionality for my environment, where we have identical
1146 /usr/local on all my machines (so I cannot just hardcode into
1147 the mts.conf file), and I have multiple POP mail servers for
1150 Modified inc.man to reflect that along with "pophost:" and -host,
1151 $MAILHOST can now activate POP mail inclusion as well.
1153 * Fixed warnings from diff on first-time install of nmh. Also
1154 added 'echo's clarifying the etc file installation activities.
1156 Tue Jul 18 19:36:59 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
1158 * Added the answer to Dan's question in README.developers.
1160 Mon Jul 17 19:10:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1162 * Clarified and made some corrections to Kimmo's README.developers
1163 changes (BTW, if anyone can explain why the RCS Ids are able to cause
1164 problems with the dependencies, please fill in the explanation --
1165 I never encountered a problem with the old single-commit method).
1167 Sat Jul 15 23:13:49 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
1169 * Add configure option --with-hash-backup so the backup prefix can
1170 be easily changed from "," to "#".
1172 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that it works with any make.
1174 * Use mkstemp in sbr/lock_file.c.
1176 * Commits of autoconf-related files apparently can't all be done
1177 in one shot due to RCS Ids changing when committing -- updated
1180 Tue Jul 11 14:18:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1182 * Clarified post.man and send.man for those not completely up on
1183 SASL terminology. "SASL encryption layers are not supported for
1184 SMTP" means that encryption is supported for the authentication
1185 but not for the subsequent data stream.
1187 Sat Jul 8 01:36:19 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
1189 * Applied Ken Hornstein <kenh@cmf.nrl.navy.mil>'s patches
1190 implementing SASL support for POP3 and SMTP. If nmh is compiled
1191 with SASL support, using the -sasl switch on the inc, msgchk,
1192 post, and send commands will enable authentication encryption for
1193 SMTP, and both authentication and data stream encryption for POP3.
1195 Sat Jun 10 18:37:59 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1197 * Merged mts/sendmail functionality into mts/smtp; switching between
1198 smtp and sendmail delivery method is now controlled by mts.conf.
1200 * If tsort cannot deal with loops, in addition to defining tsort as
1201 cat, also define lorder as echo.
1203 * Removed uip/popi.c from list of sources.
1205 Thu Jun 08 19:36:57 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1207 * New dtimep.lex didn't parse day names properly. Fixed. Also
1208 clarified ambiguous comments preceding day_map[] array (from old
1209 dtimep.lex) that probably led to the erroneous cp++ being added.
1211 Wed Jun 7 20:52:33 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1213 * Added one more mkstemp invocation to uip/spost.c (which was in a
1216 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to clean up permissions handling
1217 and error handling in uip/inc.c.
1219 Mon Jun 5 22:10:07 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1221 * Use cat instead of tsort if tsort cannot deal with loops in its
1222 input (which is the case for tsort from GNU textutils).
1224 Mon Jun 5 21:14:36 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1226 * If lockfile is present, and its dotlockfile program is setgid,
1227 inc does not need to be setgid.
1229 Sun Jun 4 21:35:40 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1231 * Added autoconf test for Miquel van Smoorenburg's liblockfile
1232 library, as found on Debian systems.
1234 * Added liblockfile support to sbr/lock_file.c.
1236 Wed May 31 7:19:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1238 * Fixed up dtimep.lex a bit. Added back memory options for AIX to
1239 increase available memory. Took out %option noyywrap, which
1240 wasn't understood by AT&T lex, as well as the -i
1241 case-insensitivity flag.
1243 Wed May 31 07:40:45 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1245 * Added a lint target to the Makefiles and a check in autoconf
1246 to determine whether lint or lclint exists on the system.
1248 Fri May 30 19:21:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1250 * etc/Makefile.in was incorrectly installing mts.conf.in and
1251 sendfiles.in -- fixed. Generated sendfiles script was not a
1252 dependency of the `all' target, and was incorrectly included in
1253 the distribution. Changed the suffix for the backed-up previous
1254 versions of the etc files from the ambiguous .old to .prev. Added
1255 call to diff -- only keep the .prev files around if different from
1256 the newly-installed versions (intentionally didn't redirect output
1257 to /dev/null so you'll notice when your changed versions are
1258 getting moved aside).
1260 * INSTALL never documented the etc/*.old thing. Documented the
1261 new etc/*.prev thing (including a note to watch for diff output).
1263 * Applied Alec Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu>'s dropsbr.c patch:
1265 In the map_write routine, a call is made to map_open and this
1266 call is supposed to set the "clear" variable to 0 or 1,
1267 depending on whether the map file is empty or not. In
1268 mh6.8.3, this worked because map_open would set "clear" by
1269 calling the mbx_Xopen routine. In nmh, the code for mbx_Xopen
1270 was merged into mbx_open, but the interface for mbx_open
1271 doesn't support the clear variable, so that functionality was
1272 lost. The map_open interface still contains "int *clear" in
1273 the prototype, but never sets it.
1275 My patch eliminates "clear" from the map_open interface (I
1276 checked to make sure that map_write is the only client of
1277 map_open). Furthermore, my patch also sets the "clear"
1278 variable properly at the beginning of map_write by calling
1279 fstat(). This eliminates the bug in that the value of "clear"
1280 being used later in the routine was just stack garbage.
1282 Having a bad value of clear causes this next bug to be
1283 triggered: The fp file pointer was being opened with fdopen,
1284 but in two of the three switch cases it wasn't being closed.
1285 In certain cases, this was causing packf to run out of file
1286 descriptors if you attempted to pack a large folder.
1288 Mon May 29 7:48:15 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1290 * Moved the date parsing routines from zotnet/tws to sbr/ (and
1291 tws.h to h/). Updated all source files to reflect to new location
1294 * Rewrote dparsetime (in dtimep.lex -> dtimep.c) to replace the
1295 old zotnet/tws/dtimep.c, dtimep.lex, lexstring.c, lexedit.c, and
1296 dtimep.c-lexed. It should now work with flex (although untested
1297 with lex), and requires no sed-ing. For now, I have the lexed
1298 version in the distribution, so that end-users don't need to worry
1299 about running it through flex/lex. I have not added back support
1300 for guessing the time zone when it's not specified.
1302 Sun May 28 17:44:15 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1304 * Added autoconf check for getutent().
1306 * Changed uip/rcvtty.c and uip/slocal.c to use getutent() and
1307 friends. Since I can only check on Linux, please check if
1308 this works on other systems.
1310 Sun May 28 14:58:49 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1312 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to uip/scansbr.c for more
1313 checks for write failures.
1315 * Unlink temporary file properly in uip/rcvtty.c.
1317 * Moved viamail from bindir to libdir.
1319 * Changed sendfiles into sendfiles.in, so that path to viamail
1322 * Added gzip support to sendfiles.
1324 * Added References header to replcomps and replgroupcomps.
1326 Sun May 28 14:39:31 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1328 * Fixed m_getfld bug which caused segmentation faults when
1329 incorporating messages which ended in multiple linefeeds crossing
1332 Fri May 26 13:21:59 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1334 * msh has been unable to show MIME messages ever since 1.0. Alec
1335 Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu> tracked down the problem to the
1336 -show flag being passed to mhshow. mhshow is equivalent to the
1337 old mhn -show, so we don't need the -show anymore. Removed it.
1339 Fri May 12 02:51:21 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1341 * zotnet/bboards is not longer built by default. Goal is to move
1342 the assorted functions in zotnet into sbr or some more logical
1345 * Moved zotnet/mf to sbr, and changed mf.h references accordingly,
1346 as well as Makefiles.
1348 Thu May 11 02:21:34 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1350 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that both SRCS and OBJS aren't
1351 seperately and redundantly defined, but so that OBJS is a
1352 pattern-substituted version of SRCS with suffix .c -> .o. This
1353 should make maintainability easier.
1355 * Added section to MACHINES indicating what platforms nmh is known
1356 to compile and work on, just to give users peace of mind, or
1357 something. This is by no means complete or exhaustive, so add
1358 whatever you know works.
1360 Tue May 09 20:38:04 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1362 * Alphabetized Shantonu's $pop_kinds output on configure's "pop is
1363 enabled" line. If POP3 is the only kind of POP enabled, say so,
1364 rather than just saying "yes" (which is ambiguous).
1366 * Fixed four warnings in Shantonu's new getpass.c. Needed to
1367 #include <stdlib.h> for calloc(), <unistd.h> for ttyname(), and
1368 "h/mh.h" for adios(). Also changed ch from char to int to get rid
1369 of "comparison is always 1 due to limited range of data type" on EOF.
1371 * Added steps to README.developers saying to change the version
1372 number to X.Y.Z+dev. Did a little rearranging and changed the FTP
1373 dir from /home/ftp to /var/ftp to reflect Doug's new machine.
1375 * Changed configure.in to use gcc -Wall even without
1376 --enable-debug, to prevent developers compiling optimized from
1377 introducing warnings, and to give end-users a warm, fuzzy feeling
1378 as they (hopefully) see no warnings come out (except perhaps on
1379 the lex output file) even with -Wall.
1381 * Renamed getpass() to nmh_getpass() since the prototype for
1382 getpass() varies from OS to OS, and we want to _always_ use our
1383 version of the function. Fixed all the callers to use
1384 nmh_getpass() and added it to prototypes.h. Semi-arbitrarily
1385 upped MAX_PASSWORD_LEN from 128 to 256. buf was being calloc()'d
1386 and the memory leaked -- should have just been declared as static
1387 char array. Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the
1388 copyright message, as this version has been changed significantly
1389 from the BSD version.
1391 * Added "nmh-local functions to use in preference to OS versions"
1392 section to README.developers (currently just says to use
1393 nmh_getpass() instead of system getpass()).
1395 * Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the copyright message
1396 in ruserpass.c also.
1398 * Added mts.conf.5 page per Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s
1401 This happens on solaris:
1404 windex entry incorrect: mts.conf(5) not found.
1405 No manual entry for mts.conf.
1409 % echo ".so man5/mh-tailor.5" > mts.conf.5
1411 done in the man5 directory. We need to add 'mts.conf.5' as a
1412 reference sourcing mh-tailor.5.
1414 Mon May 08 23:51:55 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1416 * Doug informed me that the way I had restored the "lost" version
1417 histories was wrong, because `cvs checkout's of old versions of
1418 nmh wouldn't work properly. It occurs to me that this could be
1419 fixed by simply deleting those tags in the new-location *,v files,
1420 but oh well. I'm putting everything back to the way Doug
1421 originally had it. To get the old version history for a file that
1422 used to be in the top directory, you'll need to "blindly" do a
1423 `cvs log' there (even though you won't have a local copy of the
1424 file in that directory). `cvs diff' will no longer be able to
1425 diff pre-move versions vs. post-move versions -- you'll have to do
1426 a lot of manual gyrations with `cvs checkout' and then use `diff'.
1428 * I had alphabetized the --configure options in the --help output
1429 awhile back, but Shantonu added --enable-apop just under
1430 --enable-pop. Put it in alphabetical order and clarified what
1431 --enable-apop does vs. --enable-pop and --with-krb4. Also changed
1432 --with-mts help line from "mail transport agent" to "mail
1433 transport agent/service" so the 's' in "mts" doesn't seem to come
1436 * Added two steps to "releasing nmh" in README.developers. After
1437 making the tarball, it's a good idea to diff the tree vs. the CVS
1438 tree to make sure no files got left out, and then to chown the
1439 files so that they're owned by root, preventing a Trojaning attack
1440 by a malicious remote user with a UID matching yours.
1442 * Changed DIFFERENCES to say that RPOP is not currently supported
1443 rather than implying it by saying that APOP, KPOP, and POP[3] are.
1445 Sun May 07 18:16:43 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1447 * Imported NetBSD version of getpass() and made extensive
1448 revisions for compatibility with programs that pipe the password
1449 to stdin, such as exmh.
1451 * Removed tests for system ruserpass() which sometimes gave
1452 phantom positive results. Also, bext to use internal functions if
1453 we ever want to change .netrc format to something else, or access
1456 Sat May 06 08:28:09 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1458 * Restored lost version histories for those moved files by doing a
1459 manual `mv' in the CVSROOT on mhost. CVS badly needs a `cvs mv'
1460 command so that you can move files (without having physical access
1461 to the CVSROOT) without losing versioning. Put MACHINES back at
1462 the top level as it needs to be read before building. Fixed DIST
1463 variable in {.,docs}/Makefile.in to reflect that and to add
1464 missing entry for "INSTALL" file.
1466 Sat May 06 13:13:07 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1468 * Re-cleaned up nmh documentation (by moving things to docs
1469 subdir) and modified Makefile & configure.in to handle the change.
1471 Mon Apr 17 21:28:40 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1473 * Scott Blachowicz pointed out that the configure --help output
1474 for --enable-masquerade was misleading. Clarified.
1476 Mon Apr 17 19:01:00 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1478 * APOP support can be compiled in to inc and msgchk using
1481 * To access an APOP host, specify -apop on the command line
1482 along with any -host or -user option.
1484 Fri Apr 14 23:10:44 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1486 * Upped the version number to 1.0.4+dev until the next nmh release.
1488 * Added a "releasing nmh" section to README.developers, while the
1489 process was fresh in my mind.
1491 Fri Apr 14 18:21:34 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1493 * Added new files README.developers, ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6, and
1494 ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html to DIST target in Makefile.in.
1496 * Released nmh-1.0.4.
1498 Tue Apr 11 21:37:03 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1500 * Applied Brian Campbell <bacam@tardis.ed.ac.uk>'s mhn.defaults.sh
1503 It appears that there shouldn't be quotes around the %s in the
1504 iso-8859-1 charset entry; xterm passes the remaining arguments
1505 to the program, quoting them means that xterm thinks they're
1506 part of the program's name.
1508 This %s isn't the same as the "Insert content subtype" one from
1509 mhshow-show-* -- it doesn't come from MIME headers and is safe not
1512 Sun Apr 09 13:03:59 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1514 * added check in fmt_compile() to handle a single-character
1515 format string. fmt_compile() depends on having an array of
1516 format characters with an empty item at the end. A
1517 single-character format would cause programs using this
1518 function to segfault because the algorithm used to decide on
1519 the length of the array mistakenly created a single-item array
1520 when the format string was one character. This eventually
1521 caused problems when the program attempted to test item+1
1524 Thu Apr 06 21:53:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1526 * Richard Coleman threw out a lot of old MH-specific files in nmh.
1527 Much of the stuff, indeed, is not worth saving, but there are
1528 nuggets that are very worthwhile, and should probably be added
1529 back in. Most important, IMHO, are the MH change logs, as they
1530 can help answer questions like "Why is this code like this?" or
1531 "How long has this been broken?" or "What was this ever used for?"
1533 I've added a new file to the nmh tree called
1534 ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6. It's cobbled together from the
1535 mh-6.8.4/papers/mh*/MHCHANGES files. I've re-ordered the entries
1536 to go from newest at the top to oldest at the bottom to match the
1537 ChangeLog convention. Unfortunately there are no change logs for
1538 versions of MH prior to 3 in the MH tar files available at
1539 <ftp://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/mh>. Also, it appears to me that there
1540 are MH-6.6 changes that aren't documented in the logs.
1542 I've also added ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html. This is
1543 based on mh-6.8.4/papers/changes/mh-changes.ms. The nroff format
1544 and its "catman"-type output are a pain to deal with, but I was
1545 loath to throw away the formatting, so I converted the file to
1546 HTML. The only actual markup in the body are the "<B>" and "<U>"
1547 tags, and "<" and ">" instead of '<' and '>', so it's quite
1548 doable to view the file in plain ASCII mode as well. Note that
1549 some of the changes this file documents as having been made in
1550 MH-6.8.4 may not be present in nmh -- Richard started with 6.8.3
1551 and later put in certain 6.8.4 stuff.
1553 Wed Apr 05 21:09:28 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1555 * Applied Eric Schnoebelen <eric@cirr.com>'s mhshowsbr.c patch
1556 fixing apparent bugs in Dan Winship's new security quoting code:
1558 Since upgrading, I've been getting the following errors
1559 while attempting to process some MIME messages:
1561 (1) Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
1566 (2) line 1/10 (END)Segmentation fault (core dumped)
1568 (2) appears to be due to the testing of an unset pointer in
1569 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux(). (1) appears to be caused by
1570 mis-quoting a filename being handed to the shell in
1571 mhshowsbr.c:show_content_aux().
1573 Resolving the pointer reference issue in
1574 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux() turned up a similar mis-quoting
1575 problem in the routine.
1577 Tue Mar 28 16:17:39 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1579 * Applied Todd.Miller@courtesan.com's patch to dropsbr.c to
1580 prevent core dumping on packf. Here's the note from his message:
1582 Since sizeof(buffer) == sizeof(tmpbuffer) packf will dump
1583 core on a file w/o a From line with a line >= BUFSIZ.
1584 I noticed this because I had a junk file in my mail
1587 Fri Mar 17 11:59:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1589 * wesley.craig@umich.edu did not document his previous KPOP patch,
1590 so I did so, and asked him to check what I wrote. Unfortunately
1591 he didn't notice my misunderstanding of his patch. I wrote that
1592 if you #define POPSERVICE "kpop", inc and msgchk will use KPOP
1593 exclusively, but if you leave it as "pop3", you can use Wesley's
1594 new -kpop switch on a given invocation. Instead, however, -kpop
1595 turned out to be necessary on every invocation, and a KPOP user
1596 complained. Applied Wesley's new patch, which makes things work
1597 like I thought his original patch did. After that, did one more
1598 clarifying pass to the documentation in inc.man and msgchk.man.
1600 Wed Mar 15 18:45:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1602 * When I fixed the long-standing makedir() bugs in January, I had
1603 the code call strtoul(..., 0), which I believed to be safe as all
1604 modes specified as ASCII constants in the nmh code started with a
1605 leading zero (signifying octal), which I did as it would work if
1606 internal constants were ever changed to hex. Unfortunately I was
1607 unaware of the "Folder-Protect:" .mh_profile entry, which
1608 mh-profile.man documents as an octal-only constant, with no
1609 leading zero required. I've changed the strtoul() call to an
1610 atooi() call and removed the misleading leading zeroes on the
1611 ASCII octal constants in the code and man pages. Also changed the
1612 "Folder-Protect:" example in the man page to something more
1613 interesting than a duplication of the default.
1615 * When I added my --enable-masquerade option, you'll note that I
1616 didn't make it --enable-nmh-masquerade. I find the --enable-nmh-*
1617 options too wordy and I'm not sure why Richard went that route.
1618 I've renamed them to just --enable-*, but the old versions will
1619 still work as well (they just aren't advertised).
1621 * Added a line to the "nmh configuration" output saying whether
1624 * Added a new README.developers file. From the file:
1626 This file is intended to provide a few tips for anyone doing
1627 development on nmh. Developers who learn things "the hard
1628 way" about the nmh codebase (as opposed to local info best
1629 encoded in a comment) are encouraged to share their wisdom
1632 Currently the topics are "autoconf files" and "directory structure".
1634 Tue Mar 14 12:41:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1636 * Applied, after some finessing,
1637 Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s --with-smtpservers patch:
1639 Here's a patch that allows you to add
1641 --with-smtpservers=<some.host.name>
1643 to the ./configure command line to set the "servers: " line in
1644 etc/mts.conf. Around here, we use "mailhost" so that all
1645 machines in the current domain just talk to a central machine
1646 and nothing else runs an MTA. Now, I can use
1648 --with-smtpservers=mailhost
1650 instead of having to remember to fix this by hand (and often
1651 forgetting to do so!).
1653 * Inspired by Simon's patch, added an --enable-masquerade option
1654 to configure. It will set the "masquerade:" line of mts.conf.
1655 You may specify a subset of the three types of masquerading, like
1656 --enable-masquerade="draft_from mmailid", or leave off explicit
1657 arguments to enable all three types.
1659 * Alphabetized the --enable and --with options in configure.in and
1660 INSTALL and added documentation of the two new options to the latter.
1662 * Added new dependency for mts.conf: Makefile. If this isn't
1663 done, then when you reconfigure nmh with new values for
1664 --enable-masquerade or --with-smtpservers, you'll fail to get an
1665 updated copy of mts.conf.
1667 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtimep.lex patch:
1669 It seems that some MUA's didn't handle y2k very well - ELM
1670 seems to be one of them, and Ultrix's DXmail (based on MH!).
1671 I've got a few emails this month that look like:
1673 575 Jan 00 Xxxxxx Xxxx 3603 ...
1675 22+ Jan 00 Xxx Xxxxx 1771 ...
1677 The first has "15 Jan 100" as the date and the second has
1678 "19 Jan 00" as the date. The following works around this so
1679 that scan, show, sortm, etc work ok.
1681 I put Simon's patch under the control of a new #define called
1682 FIX_NON_Y2K_COMPLIANT_MUA_DATES. There's some commentary in
1683 acconfig.h about when you might not want to #define it.
1685 * Created new dtimep.c-lexed with Simon's change using dtimep.lex
1686 lexed on Solaris 2.6. Added missing dependency in
1687 zotnet/tws/Makefile.in for dtimep.c: dtimep.c-lexed.
1689 * Added scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD format files.
1691 Mon Mar 13 21:32:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1693 * Applied Sullivan N. Beck <sbeck@cise.ufl.edu>'s mhshow-suffix patch:
1695 With the patch below, you can add lines like:
1697 mhshow-suffix-application/msword: .doc
1698 mhshow-suffix-application/PostScript: .ps
1700 to the mhn.defaults file to append the given suffix to a
1701 scratch file. This allows applications which require a
1702 certain suffix to run properly.
1704 * Removed -force_html from lynx entry in mhn.defaults.sh (I
1705 believe older versions of lynx lack that option) and added
1706 "mhshow-suffix-text/html: .html".
1708 * Modified username_extension masquerading to only use the
1709 extended address on generated [Resent-]From: lines and SMTP
1710 envelope From:. With Neil's original implementation, nmh's global
1711 idea of the username was changed, which would result in inc lying
1712 and saying you had no new mail because it was looking for a
1713 mailbox called, for instance, "dan-nmh" (where username was "dan"
1714 and $USERNAME_EXTENSION was "-nmh").
1716 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtime.c patch:
1718 There's a wrap-around problem that affects the implementation
1719 of Zeller's congruence in dtime.c. This causes the day-of-week
1720 calculations to fail for dates after Feb 29, 2000 (probably up
1721 until some year far in the future).
1723 Mon Mar 06 12:20:20 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1725 * Applied Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s msh.c patch:
1727 I finally tracked down the problem in msh that was causing
1728 errors whenever I tried to examine a 'mmdf' style mailbox.
1730 It turns out that not enough memory was being allocated with
1731 calloc(), causing memory pointers to be overwritten and
1734 Fri Mar 03 16:07:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1736 * Changed the new "plussed_user" option to mts.conf's
1737 "masquerade:" to "username_extension" after getting feedback from
1738 qmail users, who use '-' as a separator rather than '+'. Removed
1739 checking of $USERPLUS variable. Now check $USERNAME_EXTENSION,
1740 which needs to include the appropriate separator for your MTA
1741 ('-', '+', or whatever) as its first character.
1743 Thu Mar 02 23:04:30 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1745 * Added a new "boolean" type to mh.h and TRUE and FALSE constants.
1747 * Added a note to DIFFERENCES stating that it's out-of-date
1748 (Richard was the last one to update it) and that we should
1749 consider only documenting incompatibilities with MH there.
1751 * Implemented (and documented) a third kind of username
1752 masquerading: "plussed user" masquerading. This one was suggested
1753 by Neil Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>. It's based on sendmail's
1754 "plussed user" feature, where mail sent to <user>+<string> will be
1755 delivered to <user>. When it's enabled, it's controlled by the
1756 $USERPLUS environment variable. How is it enabled? Well, that
1759 * Renamed the "mmailid:" setting in mts.conf to "masquerade:", and
1760 changed it so that rather than being a boolean, it can be set to
1761 any combination of the three values "draft_from", "mmailid", and
1762 "plussed_user". Thus it is now possible to enable the three types
1763 of masquerading individually.
1765 * Fixed a bug with "mmailid" masquerading (dating back to MH?)
1766 where if it was turned on, ','s would no longer be considered
1767 GECOS field delimiters.
1769 Wed Mar 01 23:30:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1771 * Changed the GECOS-field '&' translation behavior to be
1772 controlled by the BSD42 #define rather than GCOS_HACK, since it's
1773 apparently always appropriate on OSes where BSD42 is #defined, and
1774 never appropriate on any other OSes. Thanks to Kimmo Suominen for
1775 responding to my "What is this code here for?" comment in mts.c
1776 and explaining the feature.
1778 Mon Feb 28 21:50:29 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1780 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3+dev (ideally this should be
1781 done by whoever makes a release tar file, immediately after doing
1784 * Applied Paul Fox <pgf-spam@foxharp.boston.ma.us>'s scansbr.c
1785 patch, posted to comp.mail.mh, which he says prevents loss of mail
1786 when inc'ing into a full filesystem.
1788 * Changed "echo > stamp-h.in" in Makefile.in to "date > stamp-h.in"
1789 so that stamp-h.in will be different each time configure.in and
1790 related files are changed, making it easier to check it in (which
1791 is necessary to prevent unnecessary autoconf calls).
1793 * My declaration of initgroups() in slocal.c to eliminate the "no
1794 prototype" warning wasn't portable (FreeBSD 3.[23] choked). Now
1795 use AC_EGREP_HEADER to see where initgroups() is declared, if
1798 Sun Feb 20 12:17:15 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1800 * Fix security hole in mhshowsbr.c which allowed untrusted shell
1801 code to be executed.
1803 * Released nmh 1.0.3.
1805 Thu Feb 10 10:54:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1807 * Oops. %-escapes on mhstore lines in mhn.defaults.sh should not
1808 be surrounded by single quotes, as a shell is not spawned when
1809 just saving files, and the filenames will end up with literal
1810 quotes embedded in them.
1812 Fri Feb 04 12:29:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1814 * Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
1815 got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
1816 the -help output. One theory is that they were making reference
1817 to the fact that clearly you know about the -help option since
1818 you're currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea
1819 to overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
1820 supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
1823 The other theory is that because you can say something like
1824 "mhstore -" and get "mhstore: - ambiguous. It matches" followed
1825 by the same list of switches you get with -help, they were saying
1826 you can "sorta" abbreviate "-help" as "-". You don't get the
1827 "Usage:" string, though, so it's not really the same thing.
1829 Thu Feb 03 17:52:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1831 * Applied wesley.craig@umich.edu's KPOP patches. According to him:
1833 The following patch fixes a problem with requesting a
1834 service key for a machine that has multiple 'A' records. It
1835 also makes "-kpop" a command line option, for users who
1836 would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".
1838 Did no testing of the new features, as I don't have access to a
1841 * Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
1843 * Modified INSTALL and config.h.in to reflect the new -kpop feature.
1845 Fri Jan 28 17:39:24 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1847 * All %-escapes in mhn.defaults that actually expand to something
1848 should be surrounded by single quotes. Added quotes to the ones
1849 in mhn.defaults.sh that were missing them.
1851 * Added check for lynx to write mhshow-show-text/html line in
1854 Thu Jan 27 12:22:25 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1856 * makedir() had multiple bugs dating back to MH. An octal
1857 constant was apparently being interpreted as decimal, resulting in
1858 directories with no user read or execute permissions, making
1859 nested directory creation fail. And there wasn't even an
1860 _attempt_ to set desired permissions (e.g. from "Folder-Protect:"
1861 in .mh_profile) on the outer directories of a nested directory.
1863 * A second `make install' would always fail because the check for
1864 whether mh_profile.5 existed was written incorrectly.
1866 Wed Jan 26 02:22:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1868 * Added documentation on both types of masquerading to post's man
1871 Tue Jan 25 22:58:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1873 * Doug's portability fix of my setgid inc autodetection had a
1874 caching bug -- if you re-ran configure, uip/Makefile would be
1875 corrupted, and installation would bomb out on OSes where inc needs
1878 * Implemented a new kind of email address masquerading. Usually,
1879 when a user writes a custom "From:" header in a draft, nmh uses it
1880 rather than generating one. However, the user's true address is
1881 used in the SMTP envelope "From:" and is revealed in the "Sender:"
1882 header. Now, when mmailid is set to non-zero, the envelope
1883 "From:" uses the address specified in the draft "From:" header,
1884 and there is no "Sender:" header. This is useful when sending on
1885 behalf of a remote POP3 account or when remote mail robots
1886 incorrectly use the envelope "From:" in preference to the body
1887 "From:". This processing has only been implemented for post, not
1888 for the undocumented spost (which was already missing some "From:"
1889 processing that post has).
1891 Mon Jan 24 22:26:06 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1893 * Got rid of the rest of the gcc -Wall warnings that I didn't have
1894 time for on 1999-07-15 (and, it would seem, some new ones people
1895 introduced since then). The primary ones were the warnings that
1896 default prototypes were being used for [v]snprintf() and
1897 str[n]casecmp(). As of right now, there are _no_ compilation
1898 warnings except on dtimep.c-lexed (at least under AIX 4.1.5 and
1901 Sun Jan 2 23:42:18 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1903 * Move mhtest from bindir to libdir.
1905 * Move sendfiles from libdir to bindir.
1907 * Updated sendfiles manpage to reflect this change.
1909 * Added documentation for -build and -file switches to repl and
1910 forw manpages (patch from Peter Maydell).
1912 * Fixed interaction between specifying -cc in profile and -group on
1915 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1917 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
1918 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
1919 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
1922 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1924 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
1925 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
1926 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
1927 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
1928 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
1929 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).
1931 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1933 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
1935 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1937 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
1938 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
1939 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
1940 caught again. This works for now.
1942 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
1944 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1946 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
1947 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
1949 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1951 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
1952 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
1954 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
1956 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
1958 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1960 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
1961 changes. Both need more cleanup.
1963 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1965 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
1966 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
1967 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
1968 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
1969 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
1972 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1974 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
1975 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
1976 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
1978 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
1979 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
1982 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1984 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
1985 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
1986 to a directory on another device with more free space.
1988 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1990 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
1991 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
1993 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1995 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
1998 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
1999 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
2001 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
2002 macros, regardless of platform.
2004 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
2005 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
2007 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
2008 with x-conversions=gzip.
2010 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2012 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
2015 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
2016 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
2017 implicit definition of ioctl().
2019 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
2020 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
2021 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
2022 want to mess with them.
2024 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2026 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
2027 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
2029 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
2030 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
2032 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
2033 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
2034 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
2036 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
2037 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
2038 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
2040 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
2041 function initgroups.
2043 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
2046 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
2047 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
2050 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
2051 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
2054 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
2055 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
2059 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2061 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
2062 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
2063 preventing compilation on at least linux.
2065 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
2066 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
2068 Thu Sep 09 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2070 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
2072 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
2073 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
2074 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
2075 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
2077 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
2078 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
2080 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
2082 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
2084 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
2086 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
2087 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
2089 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
2091 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
2092 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
2094 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
2095 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
2096 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
2097 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
2099 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
2100 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
2102 Sat Jun 09 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2104 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
2105 substitute it for mktemp if available.
2107 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2109 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
2110 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
2113 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
2115 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
2117 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
2119 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
2120 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
2122 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
2123 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
2124 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
2126 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
2127 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
2128 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
2130 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
2131 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
2132 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
2134 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
2135 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
2138 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
2139 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
2141 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
2142 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
2144 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
2145 <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
2147 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
2148 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
2149 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
2151 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
2152 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
2154 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
2155 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
2156 <elleron@servtech.com>.
2158 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
2159 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
2162 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
2163 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
2165 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
2166 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
2167 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
2168 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
2170 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
2171 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
2173 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2177 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
2178 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
2179 would not be changed.
2181 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
2182 one from the Apache web server.
2184 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
2185 (this should have been done a long time ago).
2187 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
2188 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
2189 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
2191 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
2193 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
2195 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
2196 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
2199 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
2200 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
2201 removes a bad race condition.
2203 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
2206 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
2207 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
2208 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
2210 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
2211 sequence information.
2213 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
2214 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
2216 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
2219 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
2222 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
2224 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
2225 interpret 034 as octal.
2227 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
2229 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
2230 mhstore, and mhbuild.
2232 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
2233 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
2235 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
2236 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
2238 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
2239 in the c_cefile structure when building.
2241 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
2242 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
2244 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
2245 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
2246 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
2248 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
2249 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
2250 and mhshow. Updated man pages
2252 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
2254 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
2256 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
2257 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
2260 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
2262 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
2263 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
2265 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
2266 header field information.
2268 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
2269 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
2271 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
2272 values when parsing a content.
2274 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
2275 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
2277 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
2278 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
2280 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
2281 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
2283 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
2284 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
2286 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
2288 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
2290 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
2292 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
2294 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
2295 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
2298 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
2299 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
2301 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
2302 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
2303 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
2304 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
2305 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
2306 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
2309 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
2311 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
2312 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
2313 buffer length checks for this parameter.
2315 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
2316 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
2318 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
2320 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
2321 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
2322 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
2323 of the limits on the length of command lines.
2325 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
2326 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
2329 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
2330 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
2331 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
2332 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
2335 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2337 * Released nmh-0.27.
2339 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
2340 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
2342 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
2343 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
2344 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
2345 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
2348 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
2349 mhbuild returns an error.
2351 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
2352 rename the draft file.
2354 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
2355 use a global variable.
2357 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
2358 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
2360 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
2361 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
2363 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
2364 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
2365 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
2367 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
2368 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
2370 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
2371 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
2374 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
2375 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
2378 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
2379 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
2381 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
2382 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
2383 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
2385 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
2386 to new function output_content_folder.
2388 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
2389 new function output_content_file.
2391 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
2392 to new function parse_format_string.
2394 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
2395 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
2396 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
2397 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
2399 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
2400 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
2401 message/external file from ftp.
2403 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
2404 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
2405 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
2407 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
2408 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
2411 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
2414 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
2415 new file mhstoresbr.c
2417 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
2420 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
2421 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
2423 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
2424 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
2426 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
2427 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
2428 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
2430 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
2432 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
2434 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
2435 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
2438 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
2439 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
2441 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
2444 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
2446 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2448 * Released nmh-0.26.
2450 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
2451 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
2452 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
2453 is still the same (dashstuffing).
2455 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
2456 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
2457 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
2458 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
2459 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
2461 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
2462 But it is not on by default.
2464 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
2465 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
2467 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
2469 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
2471 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
2473 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
2475 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
2476 number of the "cur" message when packing.
2478 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2480 * Released nmh-0.25.
2482 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
2483 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
2484 uses the original name of the library.
2486 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
2487 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
2490 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
2491 list_content and list_debug.
2493 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
2495 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
2496 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.
2498 1998-02-27 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2500 * Released nmh-0.24.
2502 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
2504 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
2505 are given, that order doesn't matter.
2507 * Fix bug in seq_list.c when realloc'ing for
2508 large sequence line.
2510 1998-02-23 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2512 * Released nmh-0.23.
2514 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
2516 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
2517 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan
2518 content, decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary
2519 string). I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
2521 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
2522 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
2525 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
2527 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
2529 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
2531 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
2532 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
2534 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
2535 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.
2537 * Add note to MACHINES file that on Linux, configure
2538 doesn't find the functions sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
2540 * Fix configuration for machines that don't have (or find)
2541 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
2543 1998-02-11 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2545 * Released nmh-0.22.
2547 * Add a configure check for sigsetjmp. Add some conditional
2548 #define's in h/signals.h in case it's not found.
2550 * Added additional notes about -auto switch in mhn man page.
2552 * Added note about MM_CHARSET environment variable to
2553 mh-profile(5) man page.
2555 * Fix signal problem in mhn.c (change setjmp/longjmp to
2556 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp).
2558 1998-02-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2560 * Released nmh-0.22-pre1.
2562 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
2563 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
2565 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
2567 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
2568 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
2569 entry point for parsing MIME files.
2571 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
2572 source message on the standard input.
2574 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
2576 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
2577 rather than -rfc934mode.
2579 * Fix mhbuild, so that Content-Description and RFC-822 comments
2580 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
2583 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
2584 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).
2586 * Restore HP specific code to zotnet/tws/lexstring.c. Apparently
2589 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2591 * Released nmh-0.21.
2593 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
2594 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.
2596 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what transfer
2599 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what character set
2600 to use for text contents.
2602 * Removed old hpux specific code from zotnet/tws/lexstring.c
2604 1998-02-02 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2606 * Released nmh-0.21-pre2.
2608 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
2610 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
2611 header fields as per RFC-2047.
2613 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
2614 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
2615 spaces between encoded word are.
2617 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
2619 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
2620 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
2622 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
2623 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
2624 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
2626 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
2628 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
2629 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
2631 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.
2633 * Added support for %(decode) to fmtdump.c.
2635 * check_charset() now accepts US-ASCII as a subset of any
2636 ISO-8859-X character set.
2638 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
2641 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
2642 permissions, not write permissions.
2644 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
2645 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
2647 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
2650 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2652 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
2654 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
2655 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
2657 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
2658 message contains valid character set.
2660 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
2661 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
2663 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
2664 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
2666 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
2667 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
2668 between an encoded word and normal text.
2670 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
2671 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
2673 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
2674 as a RFC-2047 header field.
2676 * The command install-mh now recognizes the switches -version
2679 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
2680 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
2683 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
2684 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
2686 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
2687 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
2689 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
2691 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2693 * Released nmh-0.20.
2695 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
2697 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.
2699 * Changed the default format file for mhl (mhl.format) to
2700 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
2701 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
2703 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
2704 and the To: line was missing.
2706 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
2708 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2710 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
2712 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
2713 watch the POP transaction.
2715 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
2716 first, and use it if available.
2718 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
2719 first, and use it if available.
2721 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2723 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
2725 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
2726 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
2727 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
2730 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
2731 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
2732 returns the state FLDPLUS.
2734 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
2735 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
2738 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
2740 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
2741 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
2743 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
2745 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
2746 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
2748 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
2749 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
2750 message to which you are replying.
2752 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
2753 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
2754 making group replies.
2756 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
2758 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2760 * Released nmh-0.19.
2762 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
2763 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
2765 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
2766 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
2767 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
2768 to the end of the man page.
2770 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
2771 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
2772 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
2773 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
2774 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
2775 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
2777 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
2780 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
2781 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
2782 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
2784 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
2785 the next available number above the message number you wish
2788 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
2789 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
2791 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
2792 file sbr/seq_print.c
2794 * flist will now update the current folder.
2796 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
2797 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
2798 but now undocumented.
2800 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
2803 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
2804 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
2806 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
2808 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
2809 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
2811 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2813 * Released nmh-0.18.
2815 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
2816 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
2817 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
2819 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
2820 retains the public/private status of sequences.
2822 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
2823 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
2824 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
2825 previous public/private status.
2827 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
2830 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
2833 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
2834 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
2835 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
2837 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
2838 take option to determine whether it should get current
2839 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
2840 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
2842 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
2844 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
2845 wait for stopped processes.
2847 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
2848 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
2850 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2852 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
2854 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
2855 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
2857 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
2858 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
2860 * Change the way that memory for message status is
2861 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
2862 the folder/message structure. This required changing
2863 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
2865 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
2868 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
2871 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
2873 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
2874 the debugging output.
2876 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
2877 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
2879 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2881 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
2883 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
2884 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
2886 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
2888 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
2889 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
2890 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
2891 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
2892 in the given sequence.
2894 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
2895 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
2896 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
2897 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
2898 subdirectories of a given directory.
2900 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
2901 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
2902 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
2904 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
2905 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
2907 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
2909 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
2912 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
2913 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
2914 fields are now calculated at runtime.
2916 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
2917 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
2918 are calculated at runtime.
2920 Sun Nov 30 19:14:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2922 * Released nmh-0.18-pre2.
2924 * Add paragraph to man page for install-mh and to INSTALL file
2925 about checking for global mh.profile.
2927 * Renamed m_find() to context_find().
2928 Renamed m_replace() to context_replace().
2929 Renamed m_delete() to context_del().
2930 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
2931 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
2932 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
2934 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
2935 adding message to folder itself.
2937 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
2938 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
2939 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
2942 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
2943 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
2946 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
2947 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
2948 is the same as the direct smtp code).
2950 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
2951 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
2953 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
2954 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
2955 code to use it yet).
2957 Thu Nov 13 18:42:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2959 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.
2961 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never
2962 called with a value larger than 30 mintues.
2964 * Fixed race condition in rmm and refile, so that
2965 context is updated before external rmmproc is called.
2967 * Removed all the OVERHEAD code.
2969 * Move code to add message to folder from refile.c
2972 Fri Jul 25 19:39:29 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2974 * Did some rearranging of the internals of inc.c.
2976 * Make -inplace the default for anno, forw, dist, and repl.
2978 * Changed --enable-smtp to --with-mts={smtp,sendmail}
2980 * Created new directory mts/sendmail for direct sendmail
2981 interface (although it currently still uses SMTP).
2983 * Removed all the TMA (trusted mail agent) code
2985 * Removed all the TTYD (terminal access daemon) code
2987 * Removed all the MF (uucp filtering) code.
2989 * Removed all the code for BERK.
2991 * Removed all the code for stand-alone delivery (MHMTS).
2993 * Split the file mts/sendmail/smail.c into sendmail.c and
2994 smtp.c. Changed the name of the directory to mts/smtp.
2996 * Changed autoconf to use @sysconfdir@ for location of
2997 configuration files.
2999 * Changed #define in mhn.c from FTP to BUILTIN_FTP.
3001 Mon Jul 21 03:22:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3003 * Released nmh-0.17.
3005 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
3007 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
3008 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
3010 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
3013 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
3014 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
3016 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
3017 number of refiled message.
3019 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
3021 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
3022 for return value of wait().
3024 * Change configure to also check /bin for "more".
3026 Sat Jul 12 00:02:23 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3028 * Released nmh-0.16.
3030 Mon Jun 23 20:13:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3032 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
3034 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
3035 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
3036 deal with binary messages, yet).
3038 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
3040 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
3042 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
3043 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
3044 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
3045 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
3046 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
3047 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
3049 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
3050 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
3052 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
3053 From MH-6.8.4 patch.
3055 * Fix double free of ctinfo in user_content when using
3056 #forw with single message. From John MacMillan (and
3059 * Changed -mhnproc switch for show, to -showmimeproc.
3061 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".
3063 * Added "mime" option to "whatnow", which calls the program
3064 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
3067 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
3070 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
3072 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
3073 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
3074 which used unsigned chars by default.
3076 Sat Jun 21 01:21:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3078 * Released nmh-0.15.
3080 * Added new form "scan.unseen" to distribution. It marks messages

3083 * Do some rearranging of date/time code in zotnet/tws/dtime.c
3085 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
3087 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
3090 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
3091 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
3092 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
3094 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
3095 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
3097 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
3099 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
3100 they conflict with defines on AIX.
3102 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
3103 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
3104 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
3105 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
3107 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
3108 and put in own subroutine.
3110 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
3111 and put in own subroutine.
3113 * Moved code to remove messages from folder into own
3114 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and
3115 refile.c to use new routine.
3117 Fri May 16 06:09:31 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3119 * Renamed m_seqok to seq_nameok.
3121 * Changed m_setunseen, msh, mshcmds, flist, and scan to use
3124 * Changed m_seqflag to return the number of a sequence rather
3125 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
3126 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
3128 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
3131 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before
3132 adding message to sequence.
3134 * Renamed function m_setvis to m_setunseen, and renamed
3135 corresponding file in sbr.
3137 * Renamed function m_setseq to m_setprev, and renamed corresponding
3140 * Changed mark.c and pick.c to use m_seqaddsel and m_seqdelsel.
3142 * Added new function m_seqdelsel to m_seqdel.c, which deletes
3143 all selected messages from a sequence.
3145 * Added new function m_seqaddsel to m_seqadd.c, which adds all
3146 selected messages to a sequence.
3148 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,
3151 Thu May 15 00:53:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3153 * Renamed function pack_folder to m_packfolder, and moved it
3154 from uip/folder.c into its own file sbr/m_packfolder.c
3156 Wed May 14 23:38:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3158 * Changed function m_gmsg to m_readfolder. Renamed file
3159 sbr/m_gmsg.c to sbr/m_readfolder.c.
3161 Mon May 5 19:57:11 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3163 * Expanded rcvtty man page, and added small patch from

3168 * Released nmh-0.14.
3170 * Comment out configure test and code for tgetent to allocate its
3171 own termcap buffer when passed a NULL argument.
3173 Sat Apr 26 03:46:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3175 * Added new options `-checkmime', `-nocheckmime', and `-mhnproc'
3176 to show. Restructured code to handle options to various
3177 `procs' better. Deprecated `-noshowproc' option and NOMHNPROC
3178 environment variable.
3180 * Added new man page `mh-draft' which documents the
3181 draft folder facility in nmh.
3183 * Renamed fmtsbr.h to fmt_scan.h. Renamed fmtcompile.h
3186 * split fmtsbr.c into fmt_scan.c and fmt_new.c. Renamed

3190 * `send -help' wasn't showing the -(no)mime and -split
3193 Fri Apr 25 02:50:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3195 * Released nmh-0.13.
3197 * Changed mhpath so it doesn't abort if a message sequence
3198 such as "mhpath all" expands to more than 1000 messages.
3199 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
3200 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
3203 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
3204 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
3206 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3208 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if
3209 necessary. So `folders' can now handle more than 300 folders.
3211 Tue Apr 22 14:01:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3213 * Change configure to use a compile check to see if the tm struct
3214 has tm_gmtoff, rather than using egrep.
3216 Mon Apr 21 02:19:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3218 * Released nmh-0.12.
3220 * Had set_exists and unset_exists macros backwards.

3226 * Added documentation to mh-profile.man about the various
3227 `procs' (mhlproc, showproc, lproc, etc...).
3229 * Replace the bit twiddling for SELECTED, UNSEEN, and
3230 mp->attrstats with macros.
3232 * If system doesn't have SIGEMT (like Linux), then use SIGTERM
3235 * Change fstat to stat in m_gmsg.c since Linux wants
3238 * Merge Linux patch sent in by Michel Oosterhof (original
3239 patch from bsa@kf8nh.wariat.org).
3241 * Document an undocumented MH feature. mhn -form mhl.null
3242 will suppress the display of the message header.
3244 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
3246 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c
3247 and mshcmds.c, rather than hard coding in /bin/cat.
3249 * Add mhnproc to the list of `procs' in mh-profile.man.
3251 * Add configure test for lorder and tsort commands.
3253 * Commented out the padding in the `msgs` struct in h/mh.h
3255 * Change m_gmsg.c to allocate elements to the `info' array by
3256 500 elements at a time (rather than MAXFOLDERS / 5).
3258 * Add note to man page for mhmail that zero length messages are
3259 not sent. Need to use -body "" to send empty messages.
3261 * zotnet/mts/mts.c : compare character with '\0', not NULL.
3263 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
3265 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
3266 folder/message structure when done with folder.
3268 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is
3269 defined even if message is missing "From " line.
3271 Mon Mar 31 03:37:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3273 * Released nmh-0.10.

3280 Thu Mar 20 03:21:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3282 * Reversed previous decision to retain "From " lines in slocal.
3283 The "From " line is now removed from all messages.
3285 * inc now saves the date from the "From " envelope in the
3286 Delivery-Date header for all messages.
3288 * sbr/m_getfld.c: Clean up processing of Return-Path and
3289 Delivery-Date from the "From " envelope.
3291 Mon Mar 17 19:03:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3293 * client.c: cast iaddr to int before comparing return value
3294 of inet_addr with NOTOK.
3296 Tue Mar 11 04:38:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3298 * Grep test for signal names was failing on some OS'es because

3301 Sat Mar 8 01:58:22 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3303 * Released nmh-0.09.
3305 * Move config files and format files to *.old before installing.
3307 * Add configure check for killpg.
3309 * msh.c: include <termios.h> instead of <termio.h> and
3312 * prompter.c: don't include <sys/ioctl.h> anymore.
3314 Thu Mar 6 04:03:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3316 * Added `-mime' and `-nomime' options to `repl'.
3319 Tue Mar 4 03:10:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3321 * ruserpass.c : removed conflicting prototypes.
3323 * rcvtty.c : Fixed rcvtty to obey terminal permissions granted
3324 by `mesg' command. Previously only worked on BSD machines.
3326 Mon Mar 3 00:18:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3328 * rcvtty.c : Changed to use #define UTMP_FILE (if exists) rather
3329 than hard coded "/etc/utmp".
3331 * Released nmh-0.08.
3333 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
3334 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of
3335 locking database itself.
3337 Thu Feb 27 05:28:09 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3339 * Added slocal action `mmdf' to deliver to a file in mmdf format.
3341 * Changed the slocal actions `file' and `>' to always deliver in
3342 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
3345 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
3346 rather than mmdf format.
3348 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
3349 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
3350 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
3351 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
3353 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
3355 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3357 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
3360 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
3361 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
3362 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
3364 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
3365 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
3366 rcvpack so you can choose the preferred format.
3368 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3370 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
3371 can still easily change this in config.h).
3373 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
3374 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
3375 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
3377 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3379 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather
3380 than tzset and external timezone variable.
3382 Thu Feb 13 00:35:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3384 * Fixed typo in ruserpass.c in the variable toktabs.
3386 * When ruserpass was added to LIBOBJS, it was missing
3389 * Released nmh-0.07.
3391 Tue Feb 11 01:29:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3393 * Add check to configure, so that if ruserpass, or _ruserpass
3394 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
3396 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
3397 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
3400 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
3401 built-in FTP client in mhn.
3403 * Added configure check for ushort and ulong. Change code
3404 to use ushort/ulong rather than u_short/u_long.
3406 * A couple of small cleanups in locking code.
3408 * Added configure check for gmtoff element in struct tm.
3410 * Added configure check for tzset.
3412 Fri Feb 7 03:01:57 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3414 * Released nmh-0.06.
3416 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
3417 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
3419 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
3420 many such machines around anymore.
3422 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
3423 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
3425 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
3426 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
3428 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3430 * Check lex generated file in zotnet/tws and use
3431 pre-generated version if necessary.
3433 * Released nmh-0.05.
3435 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
3436 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
3437 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
3438 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
3440 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
3441 be linked in one pass.
3443 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3445 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
3446 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
3448 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3450 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
3452 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3454 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
3455 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
3456 become the current folder.
3458 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3460 * Released nmh-0.04.
3462 * Define ospeed and PC in termsbr.c is OS doesn't have
3465 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3467 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
3468 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
3469 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
3471 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3473 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
3474 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
3476 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3478 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
3479 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
3482 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
3483 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
3485 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3487 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
3488 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
3489 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
3490 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
3491 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
3492 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
3494 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3496 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
3497 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
3499 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
3500 a file (currently need to specify full path).
3502 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3504 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
3505 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
3507 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3509 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
3510 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
3511 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
3513 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3515 * Released nmh-0.03.
3517 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
3518 .mh_sequence file existed.
3520 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
3521 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
3523 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
3524 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
3527 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3529 * Changed flist option -unseen to -[no]all. Cleaned up
3532 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3534 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
3535 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
3536 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
3538 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3540 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
3541 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
3542 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
3544 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3546 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL
3547 and allocate its own buffer. Borrowed from zsh.
3549 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
3551 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3553 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
3554 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
3555 directory from where the source code is located.
3557 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3559 * Released nmh-0.02.
3561 Wed Jan 1 17:41:52 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3563 * Split mhook man page into man pages for rcvdist, rcvpack,
3566 Tue Dec 31 03:07:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3568 * Changed code to use strerror, rather than using sys_errlist
3569 and sys_nerr directly.
3571 Mon Dec 30 02:15:25 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3573 * -compat switch from install-mh removed.
3575 * Changed the default POP port from "pop" to "pop3".
3577 Sat Dec 28 13:25:05 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3579 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
3580 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
3581 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
3582 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
3583 rather than in script.
3585 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3587 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
3589 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with
3590 macro defined on Solaris.
3592 Thu Dec 26 02:50:15 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3594 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
3595 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
3597 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
3598 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
3599 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
3600 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
3603 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3605 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
3606 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.
3608 * Fixed configure test so that termcap variable ospeed is
3611 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3613 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
3615 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included
3616 in mhn.c. Changed md5 to use memset and memcpy.
3618 Fri Dec 20 02:29:37 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3620 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
3621 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
3623 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3625 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
3626 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
3627 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
3628 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
3629 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
3630 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
3632 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3634 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
3636 * Released nmh-0.01.
3638 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
3639 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
3640 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
3643 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3645 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
3648 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3650 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
3651 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
3653 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3655 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
3656 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
3657 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
3658 script to find_program.
3660 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3662 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
3663 speed up -recurse option.
3665 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
3666 yet, but it compiles :-)
3668 * Changed default location for install to
3669 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
3670 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
3671 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
3674 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
3675 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
3676 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
