1 2010-12-08 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
3 * man/send.man: added name= portion to Content-Type
4 headers to reflect 2006-10-24 change to uip/sendsbr.c.
5 That change allowed mhstore to use the (file)name when
6 extracting attachments.
8 2010-11-12 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
10 * man/slocal.man: fix formatting error that meant a
11 subsection heading wasn't displayed as such.
13 2010-11-10 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
15 * configure.in: add a level of expansion for mandir
16 when printing the end-of-configure install path
19 2010-11-09 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
21 * man/rmm.man: fix error in synopsis: the option is
22 [no]unlink, not [no]link.
24 2010-08-31 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
26 * uip/.cvsignore: added "new".
28 2010-02-03 Earl Hood <earl@earlhood.com>
30 * Bug #15213, #18635: The use of the insecure m_scratch() and
31 m_tmpfil() functions have been replaced by m_mktemp()
32 or m_mktemp2() functions (defined in sbr/m_mktemp.c).
33 The new functions use mkstemp() to securely create
34 temporary files to avoid the numerous race conditions
35 that exist with the old functions. This does assume
36 that mkstemp() is available. Unsure if we need to
37 create an alternative implementation if mkstemp() is
38 not available. More information about new temp file
39 functions in m_mktemp.c, including the support for
40 MHTMPDIR, TMPDIR, and TMP envvars.
42 2010-02-02 Earl Hood <earl@earlhood.com>
44 * mts/smtp/smtp.c: added SASL support if mts configuration
45 setting is set to "sendmail". This is useful if sendmail
46 conf option is to a custom script that creates a proxy
47 connection to an smtp server.
49 * sbr/mts.c: added support for MHMTSCONF and MHMTSUSERCONF
50 envvars. The former specifies an alternative system
51 mts.conf to use. The later specifies a user-specific
52 mts.conf to use. This one will be read after the system
53 conf, so the user's conf only needs to set options they
54 want to override. The MHMTSUSERCONF allows a user to set
55 personal alternative mail submission methods w/o affecting
56 other users on the system.
58 * uip/whom.c: added SASL-based options so address checking
59 can work against a server that requires SASL.
61 2009-12-29 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
63 * uip/mhlistsbr.c, uip/mhlsbr.c, uip/picksbr.c: cast
64 pointers to unsigned long before casting to unsigned int
65 to avoid warnings on 64-bit about casting from pointer
66 to int of different size.
68 * uip/new.c: cast folder_len to int to avoid warning on
69 64-bit about passing a size_t to an int conversion specifier.
71 2009-12-25 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
73 * uip/inc.c: gcc 4.4.1 noticed that maildir could have been
74 used before initialization. In fact, if that code was ever
75 reached, maildir would never have been initialized. It's in
76 an adios call, so replaced with NULL.
78 2009-12-21 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
80 * mts/smtp/smtp.c: In sm_auth_sasl (), removed zeroing of
81 sasl_inbuffer because it could be used in sm_fget (). Also,
82 removed allocation of sasl_inbuffer because that was done in
83 either smtp_init () or sendmail_init ().
85 2009-01-17 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
87 * etc/mhn.defaults.sh: Never try to make mhshow start xterm.
89 2009-01-16 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
91 * test/runtest, test/tests/inc/test-deb359167,
92 test/tests/inc/test-eom-align, test/tests/manpages/test-manpages:
93 Load common.sh via absolute path, otherwise some /bin/sh
94 (e.g. dash) can't load it.
96 * uip/Makefile.in, uip/new.c, test/tests/new/test-basic: Add new
97 program, and fn/fp/unseen symlinks.
99 * test/{runtest,setup-test}: Move MH profile under Mail directory
100 so each test script will have its own to muck with, if needed.
102 * h/Makefile.in, h/crawl_folders.h, sbr/Makefile.in,
103 sbr/crawl_folders.c, uip/folder.c: Extract the folder crawling
104 code from folder.c into new crawl_folders function, using a
105 callback to assemble the folder info in folder.c. Drop compare
106 function and use strcmp instead. Rename addfold and addir to
107 add_folder and add_children (add dir vs. add folder?
110 2008-12-26 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
112 * sbr/m_getfld.c: fix two bugs which could cause us to walk off
113 the beginning of the stdio or prefix-string buffer when checking
114 for presence of the end-of-message delimiter in some situations.
115 This might cause inc to dump core if you were unlucky. (This was
117 * test/tests/inc/{md5sums,msgheader.txt,test-deb359167,
118 test-eom-align,fromline.txt,filler.txt,deb359167.mbox}: new tests
119 both for the specific problem and to try to check various alignments
120 of the eom string with the stdio buffer ending.
121 * test/common.sh: new file for common utility functions for the
122 test scripts. Moved findprog out of manpage test script into this
123 new file. Added some functions for doing progress indicators.
125 2008-12-25 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
127 * test/runtest: automatically run setup-test if it hasn't already
128 been done. Improve error handling in test script with 'set -e'.
130 2008-10-23 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
132 * h/mh.h: raised NAMESZ from 128 to 999. RFC 2822 limits line
133 lengths to 998 characters, so a header name can be at most that long.
134 m_getfld limits header names to 2 less than NAMESZ, which is fine,
135 because header names must be followed by a colon. Add one for
138 2008-10-23 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
140 * sbr/m_getfld.c: in warning message, use NAMESZ-2 instead of
141 NAMESZ-1 bytes because the message says "exceeds", not
142 "is greater than or equal to".
144 2008-10-23 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
146 * docs/MAIL.FILTERING: added note on removing procmail -f or
147 -r options to try to suppress generation of a "From " line on
150 2008-08-14 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
152 * test/setup-test: Don't run autogen.sh unless needed. Build in a
153 blddir under the temporary directory so as not to interfere with
154 whatever the developer may be doing in the source directory.
155 If the temporary directory already exists, rebuild and install it.
157 2008-08-13 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
159 * sbr/ambigsw.c: Send print_sw output to stderr. This avoids
160 strange problems with scan `pick -bogus`, not to mention being
163 * sbr/getans.c, sbr/print_help.c, uip/msh.c: Send print_sw output
166 * h/prototypes.h, sbr/print_sw.c (print_sw): Add FILE * argument
167 and send output there rather than to stdout.
169 * test/tests/pick/test-stderr: Add test that error messages don't
170 end up going to stdout.
172 2008-08-13 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
174 * uip/pick.c: Print matching messages immediately, instead of
175 waiting until the very end to print anything.
176 Ensure valid sequence name as soon as we parse it from command,
177 instead of searching the messages first.
179 2008-08-13 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
181 * uip/Makefile.in, uip/popi.c: Remove popi.c, which has been dead
182 since PatchSet 257 (2000/06/12 11:07:34 UTC).
184 2008-08-13 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
186 * h/mhparse.h: Move interfaces also used by mhbuildsbr.c here
189 * uip/Makefile.in (mhbuild): Build with mhparse.o.
191 * uip/mhbuildsbr.c: Drop the duplication of mhparse.c.
193 * uip/mhbuild.c, uip/mhlist.c, uip/mhn.c, uip/mhshow.c,
194 uip/mhstore.c, uip/mhtest.c: Drop check swdeclaration, which is
197 * uip/mhparse.c: Move some declarations to mhparse.h, and remove
198 'static' from the definitions here.
199 (get_ctinfo): Take magic mhbuild support from mhbuildsbr.c's copy,
201 (incl_name_value, extract_name_value): Move from mhbuildsbr.c to
202 support get_ctinfo change).
203 (get_content, open7Bit): Add Content-Disposition support, added to
204 mhbuildsbr.c's copy in mhbuildsbr.c r1.12 (PatchSet 549).
205 (InitText): Default to CHARSET_UNSPECIFIED instead of "US-ASCII",
206 as mhbuildsbr.c's copy did. Explain termproc.
207 (openBase64, openQuoted, open7Bit): Fix comment from r1.5:
208 suffixes, not prefixes.
209 (openMail): Explain showproc.
211 * test/tests/mhshow/test-cte-binary: Add test for
212 Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary (Debian #136976).
214 * test/tests/mhbuild/test-forw: Add an mhbuild test, testing forw
215 with and without RFC-934 mode. More mhbuild tests would be nice.
217 2008-08-13 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
219 * test/tests/bad-input/test-header: Add test for it.
221 * sbr/m_getfld.c: If we reach the end of the line without finding
222 a ':' when parsing a header field, treat that line as the
223 beginning of the body rather than blowing up. These messages are
224 usually spam, but it's nice to be able to at least scan them.
226 2008-08-12 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
228 * test/tests/mhshow/test-qp: Test various valid and invalid
231 * uip/mhparse.c (openQuoted): Simplify the decode-or-show for loop by
232 peeking ahead to the next byte(s) when encountering '=', and just let
233 invalid escape sequences through as literals (fixes bug #15245).
235 2008-08-12 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
237 * autogen.sh (new file): add script for running the GNU
238 autotools in the right order
239 * INSTALL: mention that you need to run autogen.sh if you
241 * docs/README.developers: mention autogen.sh rather than
242 suggesting running autoheader and autoconf by hand.
243 * test/setup-test: run autotools via autogen.sh
245 2008-08-08 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
247 * sbr/discard.c, sbr/m_getfld.c, uip/scansbr.c: Add support for
248 DragonFlyBSD stdio (from NetBSD pkgsrc).
250 2008-08-05 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
252 * uip/folder.c: chdir(nmhdir) in main rather than in dodir, which
253 is called many times. Drop the chdir in get_folder_info, which
254 served no purpose at all. If struct stat has d_type (BSD), use
255 that to skip processing (strcmp, stat, and so on) of message
256 files, mostly undoing the slow-down from the last change.
258 * configure.in: Call CHECK_TYPE_STRUCT_DIRENT_D_TYPE.
260 * aclocal.m4: Add CHECK_TYPE_STRUCT_DIRENT_D_TYPE from
263 2008-08-04 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
265 * uip/folder.c: Simplify dodir/addir/addfold. Dump hacky
266 over-optimization in addir that tried to avoid readdir after all
267 child directories had been read; this was also trying to support
268 symlinks to directories, but would have been failing (because
269 nlink may have gone to 0 with symlinks to directories remaining)
270 had the lstat usage been correct (lstat doesn't fail for normal
271 directories; should have used S_ISLNK).
273 2008-08-03 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
275 * test/setup-test: use 'set -e' so we stop on compile failure.
276 Configure --enable-debug for convenience in debugging.
278 * uip/whatnowsbr.c: bug #23319: rework the way we handle the working
279 directory when invoking the user's shell, so that we don't have
280 issues when the cwd contains a space or shell special character.
281 * test/tests/whatnow/test-attach-detach, test/tests/whatnow/test-cd,
282 test/tests/whatnow/test-ls: test cases for this.
284 * sbr/fmt_compile.c: add 'do { ... } while (0)' wrappers
285 to various multi-statement macros to avoid nasty surprises
286 if the macros are used in if() clauses.
288 * bug #23436: man/scan.man, man/forw.man, man/inc.man,
289 man/mh-chart.man, man/mhmail.man, man/mhshow.man,
290 man/mhstore.man, man/msgchk.man, man/packf.man, man/scan.man:
291 fix minor syntax errors groff warns about.
292 * test/runtest, test/README: allow test cases to report
293 that they have been SKIPped as well as PASS/FAIL
294 * test/tests/manpages/test-manpages - new test which runs groff
295 on the manpages and checks that there are no warnings.
296 * test/runalltests: ignore editor backup files
298 2008-08-03 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
300 * etc/replcomps, etc/replgroupcomps: Trim trailing whitespace from
303 2008-08-03 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
305 * sbr/fmt_compile.c: when doing an if-test on the result
306 of a function which returns a string result, check whether
307 the string is non-empty (as the documentation says we do).
308 Previously we were always testing the integer 'value'. Bug
309 spotted by Eric Gillespie.
310 * test/tests/repl/test-if-str: test case for this bug
312 2008-07-24 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
314 * test/setup-test: Run 'make clean' before building
316 2008-07-24 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
318 * test/runtest: cat test-temp-dir only once. Destroy and create
319 test Mail hierarchy here, so each test has its own independent
322 * test/setup-test: Drop needless pushd/popd, which don't exist in
323 sh anyway. Don't use aclocal, which is part of automake.
324 Don't create Mail hierarchy here (see test/runtest).
326 * test/tests/folder/test-create, tests/folder/test-total: Drop
329 * tests/pick/test-pick: Remove failing no-op test.
331 * test/tests/scan/test-scan: Write expected and actual output to
332 files and diff them. This way, if the output differs, diff
333 provides the FAILing exit code and shows the differences.
335 2008-06-12 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
336 * man/repl.man, etc/mhl.reply:
337 Add an attribution line when replying to messages.
339 2008-06-02 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
341 * h/mh.h, h/prototypes.h, sbr/done.c, uip/inc.c,
342 uip/mhbuild.c, uip/mhlist.c, uip/mhn.c, uip/mhshow.c,
343 uip/mhstore.c, uip/mhtest.c, uip/packf.c, uip/pick.c,
344 uip/rcvdist.c, uip/rcvstore.c, uip/sendsbr.c: when
345 building on gcc, use the noreturn attribute on various
346 functions (should improve code and avoid some spurious
347 'uninitialized variable' warnings).
349 2008-06-01 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
351 * docs/README.developers: update the bits about doing a
352 release announcement, now I've actually done one.
354 2008-05-22 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
356 * uip/scansbr.c: don't use MB_CUR_MAX if we aren't compiled
357 with multibyte support.
359 * uip/whatnowsbr.c: factor out common code for writing ls
360 shell command, and make it do more sensible buffer length
361 checks. Also avoid relying on the return value of sprintf(),
362 as some old systems don't return number of characters written.
364 2008-05-21 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
366 * sbr/utils.c (mh_xrealloc): don't assume realloc() can
367 handle NULL pointers; some non-POSIX realloc()s can't.
369 * sbr/dtimep.lex: add some table size declarations for the
370 benefit of elderly lexes with small defaults.
372 2008-05-18 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
374 * sbr/addrsbr.c: removed "err" from conditional, because gcc
375 correctly warned that it would always evaluate as true. It's
376 the address of a static array.
378 2008-05-16 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
380 * sbr/Makefile.in, config/Makefile.in: Don't use $< in target rules
381 in makefiles, as POSIX says it's only defined in inference rules.
383 2008-05-13 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
385 * configure.in, INSTALL: if --enable-masquerade is not
386 specified to configure, enable all supported masquerade forms.
387 This allows users to masquerade with the default
388 configuration. That seems to be more worthwhile now than
389 trying to prevent users from using it, especially with
390 single-user installations or those where a user can edit
393 2008-05-04 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
395 * bug #23167: sbr/ruserpass.c (ruserpass): make bad permissions
396 on .netrc be an instantly fatal error. Previously we returned
397 an error value; however, no caller was checking it. So now
398 ruserpass() has a void return type.
400 * bug #23163: various minor fixes for the benefit of
401 older Unixes (specifically SunOS 4):
402 reintroduce strerror() substitute implementation
403 provide memmove() substitute implementation
405 * bug #23163: fix accidentally broken 'build outside
406 source directory' feature
408 * bug #23162: sbr/dtime.c: fix stray HAVE_TM_GMTOFF that
409 wasn't updated to the new macro name.
411 2008-04-30 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
413 * mts/smtp/smtp.c: provide a callback for SASL_CB_AUTHNAME
414 (fixes issue with SASL sending the wrong username in some
415 circumstances). Thanks to <der_wachtmeister@freenet.de>
418 2008-04-29 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
420 * Revert previous attempt at fix for SASL issue as it
421 is the wrong approach.
423 * Fix in correct manner, by making sm_rrecord() and thus
424 sm_hear() set the length of the reply string correctly
425 (the SASL libraries now care if you pass in the wrong
428 * Correct various places in smtp.c where the reply string
429 might not have been correctly NUL-terminated. Includes a
430 fix for a particularly nasty and long standing screwup
431 where the buffer length counting in smhear() was totally
432 broken for continued lines from the server.
434 2008-04-29 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
436 * Cope with sasl_decode64() returning SASL_CONTINUE, as
437 happens with newer sasl libraries and LOGIN auth.
439 2008-04-27 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
441 * Updated some of the 'how to do a release' documentation.
443 * Upped the VERSION string to '1.3-dev', since 1.3-RC1 has
446 2008-04-27 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
448 * Released nmh-1.3 RC1.
450 2008-04-11 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
452 * acconfig.h, configure.in, sbr/dtime.c, sbr/pidwait.c,
453 uip/mhshowsbr.c, uip/rcvtty.c, uip/slocal.c, uip/termsbr.c:
454 move most remaining macros out of acconfig.h which is an
455 obsolete feature of autoconf
457 2008-04-05 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
459 * bug #18655: fix use of admonish() for a fatal error (should
460 be adios(); only actual effect would be wrong exit code).
461 Thanks to Craig Leres for spotting this.
463 2008-04-05 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
465 * bug #20028 (Debian bug 399271): fix code assuming that pointer
466 differences were 32 bits -- thanks to Dean Gaudet for the patch.
468 2008-01-25 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
470 * uip/mhshowsbr.c (show_all_messages): Be more generous when parsing
473 2007-11-04 Joel Reicher <joel@panacea.null.org>
475 * Changed done() link overriding to function pointer. Return type
476 is now void so that exit() can be used as done() callback. Dead
477 code return from all done()s removed, with return 1 in main()
478 following done() (should never be reached).
480 2007-08-21 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
482 * Red Hat Bug #253342: inc.c, utils.c, utils.h: When inc is run with
483 the -silent flag, don't exit(1) for no apparent reason.
485 2007-03-12 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
487 * bug #18630, #18631, #18632, #18634: various patches from
488 Craig Leres fixing error message argument problems.
490 2007-03-12 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
492 * bug #15212: configure.in, acconfig.h: remove configure test for
493 broken AT&T vi. This test was broken (it was always returning
494 failure even for non-broken vi implementations) and
495 unfixable. Nobody should be using AT&T vi any more so I have
496 simply moved it back to being a setting you can put manually into
497 acconfig.h if you must.
499 2006-10-24 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
501 * uip/sendsbr.c: with attachformat values of 1 or 2, add
502 name= portion to Content-Type header. This makes them
503 consistent with attachformat value 0. And it allows mhstore
504 to use that (file)name when extracting attachments.
506 2006-08-26 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
508 * configure.in: If we're not using dotlocking, there is no need to set
511 2006-03-30 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
513 * uip/sendsbr.c: with attachformat values of 1 or 2, only
514 generate Content-Disposition headers for MIME attachments, not
515 for the message contents themselves. Microsoft Outlook Build
516 10.0.6626, at least, doesn't show the message contents if they
517 have Content-Disposition.
519 2006-03-09 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
521 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c (decode_rfc2047): Don't close the iconv descriptor
524 2006-03-08 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
526 * (mh_strcasecmp): Rename the private strcasecmp function to
527 mh_strcasecmp. This keeps the newer gnu linker happy.
529 2006-03-05 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
531 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c: don't try to malloc 0 bytes if an RFC2047
532 encoded block is empty
534 2006-03-04 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
536 * etc/Makefile.in: use INSTALL_SCRIPT to install scripts;
537 this allows INSTALL_PROGRAM to be set to 'install -s' so
538 binaries are stripped on installation. Apparently the BSDs
541 2006-02-25 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
543 * uip/sendsbr.c: replaced st_mtim with st_mtime, that's what
544 it should have been. Added #include of h/tws.h to pick up
547 2006-02-20 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
549 * h/mh.h, h/prototypes.h, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, uip/send.c,
550 uip/sendsbr.c, uip/viamail.c, uip/whatnowsbr.c, man/send.man:
551 added -attachformat switch to send, to support alternate MIME
552 header contents when using -attach. See send man page for
555 * man/mhbuild.man: wrapped one appearance of "Content-Disposition"
556 with quotes, to be consistent with others.
558 2006-02-20 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
560 * h/utils.h, sbr/utils.c, uip/flist.c, uip/folder.c: Move duplicate
561 function num_digits into utils.c
563 2006-02-19 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
565 * sbr/m_draft.c, sbr/utils.c, uip/folder.c, uip/inc.c,
566 uip/mhstoresbr.c, uip/popi.c, uip/refile.c: Add create_folder()
567 function, replacing duplicate code during folder creation.
569 2006-02-18 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
571 * h/mime.h, h/mhparse.h, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, uip/mhfree.c,
572 man/mhbuild.man, docs/TODO: added support for an optional
573 Content-Disposition header in mhbuild (only). Its contents
574 are supplied between {}, positioned after the optional [], in
575 a mhbuild directive. If the contents do not contain a
576 "filename=" parameter, and the directive has a filename, or
577 something else that ends with "name=", then that will be used
578 to add a "filename=" parameter to the header.
580 2006-02-12 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
582 * docs/TODO: added RFC2183 to reference of RFC1806 for
583 Content-Disposition header.
585 2006-01-31 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
587 * uip/mhbuild.c, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, man/mhbuild.man: added
588 -nocontentid switch, to disable generation of Content-ID:
589 header in MIME messages. (Also added -contentid for
590 symmetry.) The default configuration of Microsoft Outlook,
591 Build 10.0.3416 in particular, doesn't see attachments in
592 incoming messages if there are Content-ID headers, see
593 http://home.cwru.edu/~wrv/eudoraoutlookfix.html. This allows
594 users to easily accomodate that by adding
595 mhbuild: -nocontentid to their .mh_profile.
597 2006-01-29 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
599 * bug 4360: uip/replsbr.c: remove trailing newlines from components
600 to fix bug with spaces at the end of Subject/References in replies
602 2006-01-18 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
604 * configure.in: use AS_HELP_STRING for formatting help messages
606 * configure.in, sbr/fmt_scan.c: add autoconf magic to support
607 old systems that don't support multibyte character sets
609 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: fix bug with insertion of newline being wrong if
610 the num function was used at the end of the format buffer
612 2006-01-17 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
614 * uip/post.c, uip/spost.c: in make_bcc_file (), use same
615 logic as in finish_headers () to detect whether there is an
616 existing From: line in the draft. If draft_from masquerade
617 flag is enabled, this allows the From: to be obeyed in the
618 Bcc, instead of the old behavior of always replacing it with
621 2006-01-17 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
623 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: more robust multi-byte/column support for field
624 widths, restoring right justification feature
626 2006-01-16 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
628 * h/aliasbr.h, h/rcvmail.h, man/Makefile.in, man/slocal.man,
629 sbr/lock_file.c, uip/aliasbr.c, uip/dropsbr.c, uip/post.c,
630 uip/slocal.c, man/mh-mts.man: remove remnants of code for MMDF
632 * uip/scansbr.c: multiply buffer size by MB_CUR_MAX so multi-byte
635 2006-01-14 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
637 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: Turn the PUTSF macro into a function capable of
638 handling multi column characters.
640 2006-01-07 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
642 * Remove sbr/strerror.c -- strerror(3) is defined in C89.
644 2006-01-06 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
646 * patch #3968: Move the add() function from its own file (add.c) and
647 into utils.c. There was also a duplicate add() function in mf.c which
650 2006-01-02 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
652 * Remove sbr/pwd.c file, moving the pwd() function into sbr/utils.c.
654 2006-01-01 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
656 * patch #3967: Create a mh_xrealloc function to prevent mistakes when
659 2006-01-01 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
661 * patch #3966: Create a mh_xmalloc function to prevent mistakes when
664 2005-12-24 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
666 * Bug #15285: Don't use $< in target rules in makefiles, as POSIX
667 says it's only defined in inference rules. (BSD make was expanding
668 $< to the empty string in the rule for building sbr/dtimep.c, which
669 causes lex to apparently hang because it's reading from stdin.)
671 2005-12-24 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
673 * Completely redo db library checking -- we now check for working
674 (include file, library) pairs rather than checking for headers and
675 libraries separately. We also now provide --with-ndbm=lib and
676 --with-ndbmheader=header options to configure to handle situations
677 where configure's autodetection fails.
679 2005-12-21 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
681 * Fix stupid accidental dependence on a bash quirk in previous
682 configure script change.
684 2005-12-15 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
686 * Improve checking for Berkeley db libraries: configure should now
687 find a suitable library on systems with new gdbm where
688 compatibility functions are in the gdbm_compat library, and on
691 2005-12-13 Michael Forrest <mef@computer.org>
693 * Fedora Bug #163760: sbr/context_read.c (context_read): Ensure that
694 the context is only read once.
696 2005-12-12 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
698 * uip/sendsbr.c (annoaux): Fix the call to annotate() fixing a bug
699 which prevented repl from properly annotating messages.
701 2005-12-07 Jon Steinhart <nmh@fourwinds.com>
703 * Fixed a bug where anno -append put the headers in the wrong place
704 if applied to a message that didn't contain any headers.
706 * Added a special value of "all" to the -number option that causes
707 anno -delete to delete all matching components instead of just
710 * Added new -preserve and -nopreserve options. Using -preserve
711 retains the original last accessed and last modified times on
714 2005-12-05 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
716 * Fedora Bug #174983: configure.in: Fix the AC_PATH_PROG default when
717 vi isn't found during build.
719 2005-11-19 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
721 * bug #14977: sbr/context_read.c: special case an MHCONTEXT of
722 "/dev/null" and don't try to lock it.
724 * bug #9228, debian bug #146449: man/mh-profile.man: make it clearer
725 that lower case environment variables (and in particular mheditor)
726 are internal to nmh and not intended to be set by the user.
728 2005-11-09 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
730 * sbr/mf.c: fix buffer overrun with absurdly long addresses
731 (only causes crashes if scan is run with '-width 16536' or similar)
733 * bug #7917: sbr/context_foil.c, sbr/context_read.c,
734 sbr/context_save.c: mark 'no context' with NULL rather than
735 "/dev/null" so we don't inadvertently try to lock /dev/null (which
736 takes up to a minute in some locking configurations and makes post
739 * patch #3913: uip/post.c: pass some globals into sm_init() so that
740 it uses SASL if necessary. (This bug was preventing Bcc'd emails
741 from being sent via SASL authenticated SMTP.)
743 * bug #9813: uip/rmf.c: don't crash if there's no Current-Folder
744 entry in the context file.
746 2005-11-13 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
748 * bug #7833: uip/Makefile.in: remove link to install-mh that caused
749 problems on some systems
751 * bug #739: Makefile.in: install target now depends on all to avoid
752 problem on case-insensitive file systems with the INSTALL file
754 2005-11-10 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
756 * Fedora Bug #172838: configure.in: Fix the AC_PATH_PROG default when
757 sendmail isn't found during build.
759 2005-11-09 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
761 * h/aliasbr.h: fix a non-ANSI prototype.
763 2005-11-08 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
765 * Simon Burge: acconfig.h, configure.in, uip/rcvtty.c, uip/slocal.c:
766 fix to handle getutent() on NetBSD
768 * INSTALL, README, docs/README.about, man/nmh.man: update most
769 references to the web page and mailing list locations
771 * bug #10230: etc/Makefile.in, man/Makefile.in, uip/Makefile.in:
772 Michael De La Rue: prepend DESTDIR to install locations
774 * configure.in, */Makefile.in, mts/smtp/smtp.c: replace obsolete
777 2005-11-06 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
779 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, sbr/fmt_scan.c, h/prototypes.h: fix various
780 possible overruns of the buffers in fmt_scan() which would cause
781 crashes if scan was run with '-width 16536' or similar.
783 * uip/popsbr.c: fix compile error which only showed up if nmh
784 was configured with --enable-apop.
786 * Debian Bug# 245932, RedHat Bug# 172388: uip/mhparse.c: don't
787 crash when handling a multipart MIME message with an invalid
788 Content-Type header (file handle was being fclose()d twice).
790 * sbr/Makefile.in: adjust lex command to work on both old and
791 new versions of flex.
793 * configure.in: add an AC_PREREQ() so autoconf 2.13 gives a helpful
794 error message and the Debian autoconf-version-guessing wrapper
795 doesn't guess wrongly.
797 2005-11-02 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
799 * Debian Bug# 320069: Nick Rusnov: uip/popsbr.c: fail when
800 kpop connection attempted without KPOP support compiled in
802 * Debian Bug# 320090: Nick Rusnov: sbr/Makefile.in: fix for newer
803 version of flex and remove autogenerated file from cvs
805 * patch #1155: uip/flist.c: speed up flist by skipping stat on
806 files with numbers as names
808 * docs/Makefile.in: include new files in distribution
810 2005-10-11 Bill Wohler <wohler@newt.com>
812 * docs/FAQ: fold questions into MH FAQ and distribute that instead
814 2005-10-05 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
816 * Harald Geyer: h/mh.h, uip/replsbr.c: back out previous change
817 (fork/vfork) and replace with code that handles the issue directly
819 2005-05-18 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
821 * Debian Bug# 143485: Nick Rusnov: h/mh.h: use fork instead of
824 * Debian Bug# 261592: Harald Geyer: uip/mhlsbr.c, uip/replsbr.c:
825 test/report error writing to stdout
827 * mts/smtp/smtp.c, uip/popsbr.c: correct SASL include file locations
829 * docs/COMPLETION-BASH: bash completion definitions from Debian
831 * patch #2863: savannah@brisammon.fastmail.fm: sbr/folder_read.c:
832 fix a bug affecting AFS where nmh was setting the READONLY flag
833 for a folder even when you do have write access to the folder
835 * Carl Mummert: h/fmt_compile.h, man/mh-format.man,
836 sbr/fmt_compile.c, sbr/fmt_scan.c: add unquote() function for
837 removing quotes from RFC-2822 encoded headers
839 2005-02-23 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
841 * use iconv to convert RFC-2047 encoded headers to the
842 character set used by the current locale
844 * sbr/folder_read.c fix Debian bug #202667: crash when a
845 message's filename overflows an int when converted
847 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
848 versions (from automake 1.9.5)
850 2005-02-21 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
852 * sbr/getpass.c fix bug where inc crashed on failing to reopen
855 2005-01-27 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
857 * Added -proxy option to inc and msgchk. Based on old patch
858 from Michael Richardson.
860 * On systems where it is available, use nl_langinfo to get the
861 character set if MM_CHARSET is unset
863 2005-01-21 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
865 * sbr/check_charset.c US-ASCII is a subset of UTF-8 so can be
866 handled directly when UTF-8 is being used
868 2004-12-17 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
870 * uip/mhmisc.c Fix -part option to mhshow/mhlist/mhstore to
871 find sub-parts of the specified part
873 2004-11-19 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
875 * h/prototypes.h, sbr/folder_addmsg.c, uip/mhstoresbr.c,
876 uip/rcvstore.c, uip/refile.c: Added mail directory argument to
877 folder_addmsg in order to make it possible to provide a path to
878 the ext_hook call that is mailpath-based. A problem existed when
879 a folder was a symbolic link and the pwd call would return the
880 path relative to the filesystem, not to mailpath. A new argument
881 was needed because there was otherwise no reasonable way to get
884 2004-11-16 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
886 * sbr/folder_pack.c: Fixed problem where the refile hook was being
887 called after a message was renamed so that it wasn't around for
888 the hook. The hook is now called before the message file is
891 * sbr/folder_addmsg.c: Fixed wrong directory for hook when
892 refiling with -src option.
894 2004-10-15 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
896 * uip/sortm.c: Fixed calling of external hooks.
898 2004-10-12 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
900 * uip/inc.c: Fixed another weird bug caused by the static
901 mailpath being overwritten.
903 * uip/sendsbr.c: Fixed bug that caused anno to mangle headers.
905 * sbr/lock_file.c: Fixed strange bug that prevented a lock from
906 ever being obtained if getting it failed the first time. The
907 problem was that the string of XXXXXX that is required by
908 mkstemp() was overwritten the first time through, and so all
909 subsequent times failed because mkstemp() failed. The fix
910 reinitializes the tmp file string.
912 * uip/inc.c: Fixed bug in which the static maildir was overwritted
913 if a format string was read from the profile.
915 * sbr/folder_delmsgs.c: Fixed bug that was producing an incorrect
916 path for the external hook.
918 2003-10-06 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
920 * uip/slocal.c, configure.in: db configuration fix for Debian; yet
921 another location for ndbm.
923 2003-09-30 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
925 * Fix 'pick' so handling of options "-list" and "-seq" are
927 * Fix 'inc' realloc error when bringing in more than 100 msgs
929 * Patches submitted by Nick Rusnov from Debian archive applied:
932 136976 - Handle binary content messages
933 143427 - mh-format.man typo
934 144098 - 'spost; should have same behavior as 'post'
935 w.r.t. mts.conf masquerade line
936 149745 - slocal ignores 'N' result of previous command
937 152728 - increase SMTP timeouts to conform to RFC 1123
938 The timeouts suggested by the RFC seem long
939 to me - but the RFC is still listed as active.
940 181867 - typo for nmh.man
942 2003-08-10 Jeffrey C Honig <jch@honig.net>
944 * Fix problem where parsing of address/date fields in fmt_compile
945 is optimized to the first instance. The first instance may be in
946 contitional code which will result in cached data to
947 be used. Instead, convert c_flags to a flags field from a boolean
948 and parse on the first use.
949 * Remove some unused flag bits.
951 Fri Jul 01 22:02:00 2003 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
953 * Applied fixes for configuration problems with Solaris and
954 systems with gdbm instead of db1 (includes bug #2024)
956 #578 - repl leaks umask
957 #1393 - sortm core dumps
958 #1650 - msh leaks file descriptors
959 #1730 - Double free() in mhfree.c:free_encoding()
960 #3356 - In-Reply-To header in default replcomps should be
962 * Revised man page for mh-format (bug #2031)
963 * New replcomps, etc, with Fcc: +outbox in default versions
965 Sat Mar 17 03:18:15 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
967 * Ken Hornstein's configure.in Cyrus SASL checks were doing
968 `x"$with_cyrus_sasl" != "no"' instead of `... != x"no"'.
970 Tue Mar 06 21:04:27 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
972 * Found some historical information about MH in RFC 808.
973 Supplemented it with info from Jerry Peek's MH book and added it
974 to docs/README.about.
976 Tue Feb 6 20:35:40 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
978 * sbr/dtime.c Use the same Y2K correction code as dtimep.lex
980 * sbr/dtimep.lex Restrict the parser to accept either
981 a numerical timezone offset, or a symbolic one (e.g. EST),
982 but not both (Since "2000 -400 EDT" might cause a double
983 subtraction of 60 minutes if both are parsed. One should be
986 Mon Feb 05 20:22:54 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
988 * -L isn't sufficient for specifying the path of the Cyrus SASL
989 shared library. That'll allow us to link successfully, but on
990 many/most OSes that won't allow us to find libsasl at runtime. On
991 Solaris, we need to specify the library path with -R as well (or
992 else the user will have to use the $LD_LIBRARY_PATH kludge, which
993 is considered harmful). This fix should be extended to other OSes
996 * Print whether we have SASL support in the "nmh configuration"
997 summary configure prints out.
999 * Say in README.developers to use `\date' in case anyone is like
1000 me and has `date' aliased in their shell to use a nonstandard (but
1001 subjectively more readable) format.
1003 Thu Jan 25 21:15:52 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1005 * man/mh-chart.man has updated synposes of
1008 Tue Jan 23 20:26:15 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1010 * etc/digestcomps tried to force dates into a
1011 19xx when it's not necessary.
1013 Fri Jan 19 21:22:08 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1015 * First round of manpage updates finished. They
1016 are standardized on -man macros, with minimal
1019 * man/tmac.h.in is no longer needed, since the
1020 manpages do not depend on them anymore. Note:
1021 strict "man" programs that didn't allow ".so"
1022 sourcing outside the man tree will now format
1023 the man pages correctly.
1025 * man/vmh.1 is no longer built, since uip/vmh isn't
1027 Tue Jan 9 6:01:22 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1029 * Finished manpages ali-prev
1031 * Removed deprecated files from the repository.
1032 Specifically, those rooted in zotnet/ and mts/sendmail
1033 mts/mmdf. "cvs update -dP" will give a pruned directory
1036 * Updated docs/Makefile.in to include README.manpages, and
1037 uip/Makefile.in to include popi.c (which isn't being built,
1038 though). This allows "make nmhdist" to create an archive that
1039 is file-for-file identical to the current cvs repository.
1041 Sun Dec 31 20:48:50 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1043 * Create docs/README.manpages, which details
1044 the formatting rules I've been using.
1048 Sat Dec 30 9:50:13 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1050 * Created a new file "DATE" to hold the date
1051 of the most recent nmh release. This date will be
1052 used in the manpages.
1054 * Updated docs/README.developers to add the step
1055 of updating DATE. Also, updated configure to
1056 read in the contents of the file as the variable
1059 * Started work on updating man pages, with only
1060 ali finished so far. Changes: 1) no dependence
1061 on an external macro file, 2) uses only
1062 -man macros (although I may be mistaken in this),
1063 3) syntax in the SYNOPSIS is a little more
1064 in line with standard UNIX documentation, such as
1065 bold flags and italicized parameters.
1067 Sun Dec 24 10:06:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1069 * Updated INSTALL with information about the
1070 --with-locking option.
1072 * Fixed the Hesiod tests in configure.in. In
1073 systems where res_send was in -lresolv, this
1074 information was not being communicated to the
1075 HESIOD_LIBS var. Now, if res_send is not found
1076 in the default libraries, it's assumed to be
1077 in -lresolv, and thus -lresolv is appended to
1078 HESIOD_LIBS, which will need that to avoid
1079 undefined symbols problems.
1081 * Fixed the Kerberos tests in configure.in. New
1082 versions of Kerberos 5 have renamed -lcrypto
1083 to -lk5crypto (circa krb5 1.1 or thereabouts). The
1084 new test tries to determine if -lk5crypto exists. If so,
1085 this is a new krb5 system. If not, test for -lcrypto
1086 and the rest of old krb5. If that fails, look
1087 for a genuine krb4 installation.
1089 Fri Dec 22 22:08:51 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1091 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in msgchk.man.
1092 -snoop was documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
1094 Fri Dec 22 23:42:16 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1096 * Made a new ./configure option called
1097 "--with-locking" that allows the file
1098 locking mechanism to be chosen there instead of
1099 requiring a manual edit of config.h.
1101 * If the option is not explicitly set, or an
1102 invalid option is specified, "dot" locking is
1103 chosen. Valid options are "dot", "fcntl",
1104 "flock", and "lockf". We need a way to tell
1105 the user that these are the valid options, and
1106 change the flag "--with-locking" if it's not
1109 Fri Dec 22 19:21:29 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1111 * Remove the lex-specific memory hints at the
1112 beginning of sbr/dtimep.lex. We've already
1113 committed to supporting flex only, since
1114 lex does not easily allow us to parse a single
1115 string, as well as other problems documented
1116 below and on nmh-workers.
1118 * Added a switch statement to configure.in to
1119 test for Mac OS X. If this is the case, LDFLAGS
1120 should not contain "-s" since the linker rejects
1123 * Updated MACHINES to include Mac OS X Public Beta,
1124 as well as Linux 2.4 running glibc 2.2.
1126 Wed Dec 20 16:00:46 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1128 * Marked deprecated directories in docs/README.developers
1129 as deprecated, with pointers to the new code location.
1130 Eventually these deprecated directories should go away.
1132 Tue Dec 19 19:16:37 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1134 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in inc.man. -snoop was
1135 documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
1137 Thu Dec 14 14:32:09 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1139 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
1140 versions on ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/config, dated
1141 12-07-00. This should prevent configure from failing
1142 on newer operating systems because config.{guess,sub}
1143 couldn't correctly identify them.
1145 Thu Dec 14 1:30:44 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1147 * Fixed the circular dependency created when I moved
1148 zotnet/mts to mts/generic and merged them into libmts.
1149 mts/generic/client.c and mts/generic/mts.c are now in sbr/
1150 (and thus in libmh), which makes libmh self-contained and
1151 not depending on an external archive.
1153 * All include statements now look for mts.h in h/. The
1154 Makefiles and configure script have been modified so that
1155 mts/generic is no longer built.
1157 Mon Dec 11 22:08:07 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1159 * When Shantonu made the new libmts.a, he swapped $(MTSLIB) and
1160 libmh.a in sbr/Makefile.in so that libmh.a comes first, but this
1161 causes the build to fail on Solaris, because libmts.a has to get
1162 ruserpass() out of libmh.a. Swapping them back to the way Ken
1163 Hornstein's patch (which I applied on Jul 20) put them, with
1164 libmh.a correctly coming second. If there are times when libmts.a
1165 needs to come second, then it would appear there's a circular
1166 dependency and someone (Shantonu?) did an mts merge incorrectly.
1168 Fri Sep 8 01:36:23 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1170 * Took out bad time textual time zones like BST and JST.
1171 I found them online somewhere, but am not sure if they're
1174 Fri Sep 8 00:36:48 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1176 * Moved zotnet/mts to mts/generic. This code reorganization
1177 makes the entire zotnet tree deprecated -- bboards is unneeded,
1178 mf was was moved to sbr, tws was rewritten and moved to sbr, and
1181 * Created a new static library called libmts.a used during
1182 compilation which includes the generic mts code and the
1183 smtp/sendmail code. This supercedes the functionality of the
1184 old libsmtp.a and the remains of libzot.a.
1186 * Updated header includes to reference the new location of mts.h
1187 in mts/generic/mts.h. Also, update the configure and top-level
1188 Makefile not to descend into zotnet. Also, they don't descend
1189 into mts/mmdf and mts/sendmail (the sendmail code has been
1190 merged into the smtp code).
1192 * Added #include <h/nmh.h> to h/md5.h, since my compile was
1193 complaining about implicitly-declared memcpy and memset, which
1194 appear to be in strings.h. In any event, nmh.h should take care
1197 * When doing a "make nmhdist", notice that the generated
1198 snapshot does not include zotnet of the mts directories as noted
1199 above. Since they are no longer compiled, and I don't see any
1200 obvious code path to get to them, end-users should probably
1201 not need them. If you think otherwise, turn Makefile generation
1202 back on in configure.in and turn on recursion into those dirs
1203 in the appropriate Makefile.in
1205 Wed Sep 6 22:40:03 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1207 * Tracked down the problem in the new dtimep where time
1208 zones were being radically misreported. It was because the
1209 parser knew about military time zones (such as M or E) but in
1210 some cases did not know about the textual representation of
1211 some zones (like MET). When it encountered one of these, the
1212 date parser misread MET as the military time zone T (well, first
1213 zone M, then E, and finally T). I took military zones out, and
1214 things seem much better. Also, the default behavior of parsing
1215 time zones appears to default to GMT in the absence of better
1216 info, which is less bogus than assuming the mail came from the
1217 current time zone, which was the behavior in 1.04.
1219 Thu Aug 10 13:22:13 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1221 * Decided that limiting the message number columns to 3 on my
1222 scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD (to try to regain space taken by
1223 extra date info) was ill-conceived. It's not that tough to get
1224 past 999 messages, though I imagine it's rather rare to exceed
1225 9999. Changed these to 4. Also put the "replied / encrypted"
1226 column back in YYYYMMDD -- I've never seen it show anything but a
1227 space, but that space is useful if you use scan, grep, and awk
1228 (with the default field separator) to grab message numbers (I know
1229 -- pick should really be used for these purposes...).
1231 Mon Aug 7 20:11:09 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1233 * Modify umask set by mhshow to enable user execute bit, so that
1234 viewers that create temporary directories (e.g., lynx) will be
1235 able to access them.
1237 Thu Aug 03 17:14:08 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1239 * TODO: Allow multiple simultaneous differing contexts, probably
1240 each tied to a parent (terminal) process.
1242 Tue Aug 1 10:48:05 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
1244 * Makefile install rules should not look for generated files in
1245 the source tree -- this will happen to work when configuring and
1246 building inside the source tree but will fail when using an
1247 external build tree. Fixed etc/Makefile.in.
1249 Mon Jul 24 16:20:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1251 * When Shantonu wrote the new, more portable dtimep.lex, he left
1252 out the #ifdef DSTXXX stuff for some reason. Not a good idea, as
1253 that code is required for proper printing of numeric-offset
1254 timezones that have daylight saving time. Without that code,
1255 -0700 during DST gets printed as MST instead of PDT.
1257 * Renamed DSTXXX as ADJUST_NUMERIC_ONLY_TZ_OFFSETS_WRT_DST and
1258 added an explanatory comment by its #definition.
1260 * Updated README.developers with the fact that zotnet/tws is going away.
1262 Thu Jul 20 20:30:52 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1264 * Moved Kimmo's new "--with-hash-backup" to be output with the
1265 rest of the --with options in the configure --help output. Also,
1266 people did not preserve my alphabetization of the --with options
1267 when they added new ones. Re-alphabetized.
1269 * One more pass at README.developers now that it's clear that my
1270 previously-suggested one-line autoconf-file commit can cause
1271 unnecessary local makes and an out-of-sync stamp-h.in file, but
1272 would not cause problems for other people using the CVS files.
1274 * Ken Hornstein's SASL patch was not integrated properly with
1275 Ruud's new merged mts/sendmail code. Kimmo has since fixed nmh so
1276 it compiles, but according to Ken, the SASL stuff still does not
1277 work. Integrating a patch from him for this.
1279 * Last pass at README.developers -- Kimmo's 5-step commit was
1280 overkill. You only need 3 steps, since configure.in is the only
1281 autoconf file with the RCS $Id keyword.
1283 * Applied Kurt J. Lidl <lidl@eng.us.uu.net>'s $MAILHOST patch:
1285 I have a small patch that would be nice to be included --
1286 basically, it allows the usage of the "MAILHOST" environment
1287 variable, without having to have HESIOD turned on. I need
1288 this functionality for my environment, where we have identical
1289 /usr/local on all my machines (so I cannot just hardcode into
1290 the mts.conf file), and I have multiple POP mail servers for
1293 Modified inc.man to reflect that along with "pophost:" and -host,
1294 $MAILHOST can now activate POP mail inclusion as well.
1296 * Fixed warnings from diff on first-time install of nmh. Also
1297 added 'echo's clarifying the etc file installation activities.
1299 Tue Jul 18 19:36:59 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
1301 * Added the answer to Dan's question in README.developers.
1303 Mon Jul 17 19:10:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1305 * Clarified and made some corrections to Kimmo's README.developers
1306 changes (BTW, if anyone can explain why the RCS Ids are able to cause
1307 problems with the dependencies, please fill in the explanation --
1308 I never encountered a problem with the old single-commit method).
1310 Sat Jul 15 23:13:49 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
1312 * Add configure option --with-hash-backup so the backup prefix can
1313 be easily changed from "," to "#".
1315 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that it works with any make.
1317 * Use mkstemp in sbr/lock_file.c.
1319 * Commits of autoconf-related files apparently can't all be done
1320 in one shot due to RCS Ids changing when committing -- updated
1323 Tue Jul 11 14:18:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1325 * Clarified post.man and send.man for those not completely up on
1326 SASL terminology. "SASL encryption layers are not supported for
1327 SMTP" means that encryption is supported for the authentication
1328 but not for the subsequent data stream.
1330 Sat Jul 8 01:36:19 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
1332 * Applied Ken Hornstein <kenh@cmf.nrl.navy.mil>'s patches
1333 implementing SASL support for POP3 and SMTP. If nmh is compiled
1334 with SASL support, using the -sasl switch on the inc, msgchk,
1335 post, and send commands will enable authentication encryption for
1336 SMTP, and both authentication and data stream encryption for POP3.
1338 Sat Jun 10 18:37:59 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1340 * Merged mts/sendmail functionality into mts/smtp; switching between
1341 smtp and sendmail delivery method is now controlled by mts.conf.
1343 * If tsort cannot deal with loops, in addition to defining tsort as
1344 cat, also define lorder as echo.
1346 * Removed uip/popi.c from list of sources.
1348 Thu Jun 08 19:36:57 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1350 * New dtimep.lex didn't parse day names properly. Fixed. Also
1351 clarified ambiguous comments preceding day_map[] array (from old
1352 dtimep.lex) that probably led to the erroneous cp++ being added.
1354 Wed Jun 7 20:52:33 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1356 * Added one more mkstemp invocation to uip/spost.c (which was in a
1359 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to clean up permissions handling
1360 and error handling in uip/inc.c.
1362 Mon Jun 5 22:10:07 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1364 * Use cat instead of tsort if tsort cannot deal with loops in its
1365 input (which is the case for tsort from GNU textutils).
1367 Mon Jun 5 21:14:36 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1369 * If lockfile is present, and its dotlockfile program is setgid,
1370 inc does not need to be setgid.
1372 Sun Jun 4 21:35:40 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1374 * Added autoconf test for Miquel van Smoorenburg's liblockfile
1375 library, as found on Debian systems.
1377 * Added liblockfile support to sbr/lock_file.c.
1379 Wed May 31 7:19:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1381 * Fixed up dtimep.lex a bit. Added back memory options for AIX to
1382 increase available memory. Took out %option noyywrap, which
1383 wasn't understood by AT&T lex, as well as the -i
1384 case-insensitivity flag.
1386 Wed May 31 07:40:45 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1388 * Added a lint target to the Makefiles and a check in autoconf
1389 to determine whether lint or lclint exists on the system.
1391 Fri May 30 19:21:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1393 * etc/Makefile.in was incorrectly installing mts.conf.in and
1394 sendfiles.in -- fixed. Generated sendfiles script was not a
1395 dependency of the `all' target, and was incorrectly included in
1396 the distribution. Changed the suffix for the backed-up previous
1397 versions of the etc files from the ambiguous .old to .prev. Added
1398 call to diff -- only keep the .prev files around if different from
1399 the newly-installed versions (intentionally didn't redirect output
1400 to /dev/null so you'll notice when your changed versions are
1401 getting moved aside).
1403 * INSTALL never documented the etc/*.old thing. Documented the
1404 new etc/*.prev thing (including a note to watch for diff output).
1406 * Applied Alec Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu>'s dropsbr.c patch:
1408 In the map_write routine, a call is made to map_open and this
1409 call is supposed to set the "clear" variable to 0 or 1,
1410 depending on whether the map file is empty or not. In
1411 mh6.8.3, this worked because map_open would set "clear" by
1412 calling the mbx_Xopen routine. In nmh, the code for mbx_Xopen
1413 was merged into mbx_open, but the interface for mbx_open
1414 doesn't support the clear variable, so that functionality was
1415 lost. The map_open interface still contains "int *clear" in
1416 the prototype, but never sets it.
1418 My patch eliminates "clear" from the map_open interface (I
1419 checked to make sure that map_write is the only client of
1420 map_open). Furthermore, my patch also sets the "clear"
1421 variable properly at the beginning of map_write by calling
1422 fstat(). This eliminates the bug in that the value of "clear"
1423 being used later in the routine was just stack garbage.
1425 Having a bad value of clear causes this next bug to be
1426 triggered: The fp file pointer was being opened with fdopen,
1427 but in two of the three switch cases it wasn't being closed.
1428 In certain cases, this was causing packf to run out of file
1429 descriptors if you attempted to pack a large folder.
1431 Mon May 29 7:48:15 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1433 * Moved the date parsing routines from zotnet/tws to sbr/ (and
1434 tws.h to h/). Updated all source files to reflect to new location
1437 * Rewrote dparsetime (in dtimep.lex -> dtimep.c) to replace the
1438 old zotnet/tws/dtimep.c, dtimep.lex, lexstring.c, lexedit.c, and
1439 dtimep.c-lexed. It should now work with flex (although untested
1440 with lex), and requires no sed-ing. For now, I have the lexed
1441 version in the distribution, so that end-users don't need to worry
1442 about running it through flex/lex. I have not added back support
1443 for guessing the time zone when it's not specified.
1445 Sun May 28 17:44:15 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1447 * Added autoconf check for getutent().
1449 * Changed uip/rcvtty.c and uip/slocal.c to use getutent() and
1450 friends. Since I can only check on Linux, please check if
1451 this works on other systems.
1453 Sun May 28 14:58:49 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1455 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to uip/scansbr.c for more
1456 checks for write failures.
1458 * Unlink temporary file properly in uip/rcvtty.c.
1460 * Moved viamail from bindir to libdir.
1462 * Changed sendfiles into sendfiles.in, so that path to viamail
1465 * Added gzip support to sendfiles.
1467 * Added References header to replcomps and replgroupcomps.
1469 Sun May 28 14:39:31 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1471 * Fixed m_getfld bug which caused segmentation faults when
1472 incorporating messages which ended in multiple linefeeds crossing
1475 Fri May 26 13:21:59 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1477 * msh has been unable to show MIME messages ever since 1.0. Alec
1478 Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu> tracked down the problem to the
1479 -show flag being passed to mhshow. mhshow is equivalent to the
1480 old mhn -show, so we don't need the -show anymore. Removed it.
1482 Fri May 12 02:51:21 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1484 * zotnet/bboards is not longer built by default. Goal is to move
1485 the assorted functions in zotnet into sbr or some more logical
1488 * Moved zotnet/mf to sbr, and changed mf.h references accordingly,
1489 as well as Makefiles.
1491 Thu May 11 02:21:34 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1493 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that both SRCS and OBJS aren't
1494 seperately and redundantly defined, but so that OBJS is a
1495 pattern-substituted version of SRCS with suffix .c -> .o. This
1496 should make maintainability easier.
1498 * Added section to MACHINES indicating what platforms nmh is known
1499 to compile and work on, just to give users peace of mind, or
1500 something. This is by no means complete or exhaustive, so add
1501 whatever you know works.
1503 Tue May 09 20:38:04 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1505 * Alphabetized Shantonu's $pop_kinds output on configure's "pop is
1506 enabled" line. If POP3 is the only kind of POP enabled, say so,
1507 rather than just saying "yes" (which is ambiguous).
1509 * Fixed four warnings in Shantonu's new getpass.c. Needed to
1510 #include <stdlib.h> for calloc(), <unistd.h> for ttyname(), and
1511 "h/mh.h" for adios(). Also changed ch from char to int to get rid
1512 of "comparison is always 1 due to limited range of data type" on EOF.
1514 * Added steps to README.developers saying to change the version
1515 number to X.Y.Z+dev. Did a little rearranging and changed the FTP
1516 dir from /home/ftp to /var/ftp to reflect Doug's new machine.
1518 * Changed configure.in to use gcc -Wall even without
1519 --enable-debug, to prevent developers compiling optimized from
1520 introducing warnings, and to give end-users a warm, fuzzy feeling
1521 as they (hopefully) see no warnings come out (except perhaps on
1522 the lex output file) even with -Wall.
1524 * Renamed getpass() to nmh_getpass() since the prototype for
1525 getpass() varies from OS to OS, and we want to _always_ use our
1526 version of the function. Fixed all the callers to use
1527 nmh_getpass() and added it to prototypes.h. Semi-arbitrarily
1528 upped MAX_PASSWORD_LEN from 128 to 256. buf was being calloc()'d
1529 and the memory leaked -- should have just been declared as static
1530 char array. Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the
1531 copyright message, as this version has been changed significantly
1532 from the BSD version.
1534 * Added "nmh-local functions to use in preference to OS versions"
1535 section to README.developers (currently just says to use
1536 nmh_getpass() instead of system getpass()).
1538 * Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the copyright message
1539 in ruserpass.c also.
1541 * Added mts.conf.5 page per Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s
1544 This happens on solaris:
1547 windex entry incorrect: mts.conf(5) not found.
1548 No manual entry for mts.conf.
1552 % echo ".so man5/mh-tailor.5" > mts.conf.5
1554 done in the man5 directory. We need to add 'mts.conf.5' as a
1555 reference sourcing mh-tailor.5.
1557 Mon May 08 23:51:55 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1559 * Doug informed me that the way I had restored the "lost" version
1560 histories was wrong, because `cvs checkout's of old versions of
1561 nmh wouldn't work properly. It occurs to me that this could be
1562 fixed by simply deleting those tags in the new-location *,v files,
1563 but oh well. I'm putting everything back to the way Doug
1564 originally had it. To get the old version history for a file that
1565 used to be in the top directory, you'll need to "blindly" do a
1566 `cvs log' there (even though you won't have a local copy of the
1567 file in that directory). `cvs diff' will no longer be able to
1568 diff pre-move versions vs. post-move versions -- you'll have to do
1569 a lot of manual gyrations with `cvs checkout' and then use `diff'.
1571 * I had alphabetized the --configure options in the --help output
1572 awhile back, but Shantonu added --enable-apop just under
1573 --enable-pop. Put it in alphabetical order and clarified what
1574 --enable-apop does vs. --enable-pop and --with-krb4. Also changed
1575 --with-mts help line from "mail transport agent" to "mail
1576 transport agent/service" so the 's' in "mts" doesn't seem to come
1579 * Added two steps to "releasing nmh" in README.developers. After
1580 making the tarball, it's a good idea to diff the tree vs. the CVS
1581 tree to make sure no files got left out, and then to chown the
1582 files so that they're owned by root, preventing a Trojaning attack
1583 by a malicious remote user with a UID matching yours.
1585 * Changed DIFFERENCES to say that RPOP is not currently supported
1586 rather than implying it by saying that APOP, KPOP, and POP[3] are.
1588 Sun May 07 18:16:43 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1590 * Imported NetBSD version of getpass() and made extensive
1591 revisions for compatibility with programs that pipe the password
1592 to stdin, such as exmh.
1594 * Removed tests for system ruserpass() which sometimes gave
1595 phantom positive results. Also, bext to use internal functions if
1596 we ever want to change .netrc format to something else, or access
1599 Sat May 06 08:28:09 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1601 * Restored lost version histories for those moved files by doing a
1602 manual `mv' in the CVSROOT on mhost. CVS badly needs a `cvs mv'
1603 command so that you can move files (without having physical access
1604 to the CVSROOT) without losing versioning. Put MACHINES back at
1605 the top level as it needs to be read before building. Fixed DIST
1606 variable in {.,docs}/Makefile.in to reflect that and to add
1607 missing entry for "INSTALL" file.
1609 Sat May 06 13:13:07 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1611 * Re-cleaned up nmh documentation (by moving things to docs
1612 subdir) and modified Makefile & configure.in to handle the change.
1614 Mon Apr 17 21:28:40 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1616 * Scott Blachowicz pointed out that the configure --help output
1617 for --enable-masquerade was misleading. Clarified.
1619 Mon Apr 17 19:01:00 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1621 * APOP support can be compiled in to inc and msgchk using
1624 * To access an APOP host, specify -apop on the command line
1625 along with any -host or -user option.
1627 Fri Apr 14 23:10:44 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1629 * Upped the version number to 1.0.4+dev until the next nmh release.
1631 * Added a "releasing nmh" section to README.developers, while the
1632 process was fresh in my mind.
1634 Fri Apr 14 18:21:34 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1636 * Added new files README.developers, ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6, and
1637 ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html to DIST target in Makefile.in.
1639 * Released nmh-1.0.4.
1641 Tue Apr 11 21:37:03 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1643 * Applied Brian Campbell <bacam@tardis.ed.ac.uk>'s mhn.defaults.sh
1646 It appears that there shouldn't be quotes around the %s in the
1647 iso-8859-1 charset entry; xterm passes the remaining arguments
1648 to the program, quoting them means that xterm thinks they're
1649 part of the program's name.
1651 This %s isn't the same as the "Insert content subtype" one from
1652 mhshow-show-* -- it doesn't come from MIME headers and is safe not
1655 Sun Apr 09 13:03:59 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1657 * added check in fmt_compile() to handle a single-character
1658 format string. fmt_compile() depends on having an array of
1659 format characters with an empty item at the end. A
1660 single-character format would cause programs using this
1661 function to segfault because the algorithm used to decide on
1662 the length of the array mistakenly created a single-item array
1663 when the format string was one character. This eventually
1664 caused problems when the program attempted to test item+1
1667 Thu Apr 06 21:53:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1669 * Richard Coleman threw out a lot of old MH-specific files in nmh.
1670 Much of the stuff, indeed, is not worth saving, but there are
1671 nuggets that are very worthwhile, and should probably be added
1672 back in. Most important, IMHO, are the MH change logs, as they
1673 can help answer questions like "Why is this code like this?" or
1674 "How long has this been broken?" or "What was this ever used for?"
1676 I've added a new file to the nmh tree called
1677 ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6. It's cobbled together from the
1678 mh-6.8.4/papers/mh*/MHCHANGES files. I've re-ordered the entries
1679 to go from newest at the top to oldest at the bottom to match the
1680 ChangeLog convention. Unfortunately there are no change logs for
1681 versions of MH prior to 3 in the MH tar files available at
1682 <ftp://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/mh>. Also, it appears to me that there
1683 are MH-6.6 changes that aren't documented in the logs.
1685 I've also added ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html. This is
1686 based on mh-6.8.4/papers/changes/mh-changes.ms. The nroff format
1687 and its "catman"-type output are a pain to deal with, but I was
1688 loath to throw away the formatting, so I converted the file to
1689 HTML. The only actual markup in the body are the "<B>" and "<U>"
1690 tags, and "<" and ">" instead of '<' and '>', so it's quite
1691 doable to view the file in plain ASCII mode as well. Note that
1692 some of the changes this file documents as having been made in
1693 MH-6.8.4 may not be present in nmh -- Richard started with 6.8.3
1694 and later put in certain 6.8.4 stuff.
1696 Wed Apr 05 21:09:28 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1698 * Applied Eric Schnoebelen <eric@cirr.com>'s mhshowsbr.c patch
1699 fixing apparent bugs in Dan Winship's new security quoting code:
1701 Since upgrading, I've been getting the following errors
1702 while attempting to process some MIME messages:
1704 (1) Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
1709 (2) line 1/10 (END)Segmentation fault (core dumped)
1711 (2) appears to be due to the testing of an unset pointer in
1712 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux(). (1) appears to be caused by
1713 mis-quoting a filename being handed to the shell in
1714 mhshowsbr.c:show_content_aux().
1716 Resolving the pointer reference issue in
1717 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux() turned up a similar mis-quoting
1718 problem in the routine.
1720 Tue Mar 28 16:17:39 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1722 * Applied Todd.Miller@courtesan.com's patch to dropsbr.c to
1723 prevent core dumping on packf. Here's the note from his message:
1725 Since sizeof(buffer) == sizeof(tmpbuffer) packf will dump
1726 core on a file w/o a From line with a line >= BUFSIZ.
1727 I noticed this because I had a junk file in my mail
1730 Fri Mar 17 11:59:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1732 * wesley.craig@umich.edu did not document his previous KPOP patch,
1733 so I did so, and asked him to check what I wrote. Unfortunately
1734 he didn't notice my misunderstanding of his patch. I wrote that
1735 if you #define POPSERVICE "kpop", inc and msgchk will use KPOP
1736 exclusively, but if you leave it as "pop3", you can use Wesley's
1737 new -kpop switch on a given invocation. Instead, however, -kpop
1738 turned out to be necessary on every invocation, and a KPOP user
1739 complained. Applied Wesley's new patch, which makes things work
1740 like I thought his original patch did. After that, did one more
1741 clarifying pass to the documentation in inc.man and msgchk.man.
1743 Wed Mar 15 18:45:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1745 * When I fixed the long-standing makedir() bugs in January, I had
1746 the code call strtoul(..., 0), which I believed to be safe as all
1747 modes specified as ASCII constants in the nmh code started with a
1748 leading zero (signifying octal), which I did as it would work if
1749 internal constants were ever changed to hex. Unfortunately I was
1750 unaware of the "Folder-Protect:" .mh_profile entry, which
1751 mh-profile.man documents as an octal-only constant, with no
1752 leading zero required. I've changed the strtoul() call to an
1753 atooi() call and removed the misleading leading zeroes on the
1754 ASCII octal constants in the code and man pages. Also changed the
1755 "Folder-Protect:" example in the man page to something more
1756 interesting than a duplication of the default.
1758 * When I added my --enable-masquerade option, you'll note that I
1759 didn't make it --enable-nmh-masquerade. I find the --enable-nmh-*
1760 options too wordy and I'm not sure why Richard went that route.
1761 I've renamed them to just --enable-*, but the old versions will
1762 still work as well (they just aren't advertised).
1764 * Added a line to the "nmh configuration" output saying whether
1767 * Added a new README.developers file. From the file:
1769 This file is intended to provide a few tips for anyone doing
1770 development on nmh. Developers who learn things "the hard
1771 way" about the nmh codebase (as opposed to local info best
1772 encoded in a comment) are encouraged to share their wisdom
1775 Currently the topics are "autoconf files" and "directory structure".
1777 Tue Mar 14 12:41:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1779 * Applied, after some finessing,
1780 Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s --with-smtpservers patch:
1782 Here's a patch that allows you to add
1784 --with-smtpservers=<some.host.name>
1786 to the ./configure command line to set the "servers: " line in
1787 etc/mts.conf. Around here, we use "mailhost" so that all
1788 machines in the current domain just talk to a central machine
1789 and nothing else runs an MTA. Now, I can use
1791 --with-smtpservers=mailhost
1793 instead of having to remember to fix this by hand (and often
1794 forgetting to do so!).
1796 * Inspired by Simon's patch, added an --enable-masquerade option
1797 to configure. It will set the "masquerade:" line of mts.conf.
1798 You may specify a subset of the three types of masquerading, like
1799 --enable-masquerade="draft_from mmailid", or leave off explicit
1800 arguments to enable all three types.
1802 * Alphabetized the --enable and --with options in configure.in and
1803 INSTALL and added documentation of the two new options to the latter.
1805 * Added new dependency for mts.conf: Makefile. If this isn't
1806 done, then when you reconfigure nmh with new values for
1807 --enable-masquerade or --with-smtpservers, you'll fail to get an
1808 updated copy of mts.conf.
1810 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtimep.lex patch:
1812 It seems that some MUA's didn't handle y2k very well - ELM
1813 seems to be one of them, and Ultrix's DXmail (based on MH!).
1814 I've got a few emails this month that look like:
1816 575 Jan 00 Xxxxxx Xxxx 3603 ...
1818 22+ Jan 00 Xxx Xxxxx 1771 ...
1820 The first has "15 Jan 100" as the date and the second has
1821 "19 Jan 00" as the date. The following works around this so
1822 that scan, show, sortm, etc work ok.
1824 I put Simon's patch under the control of a new #define called
1825 FIX_NON_Y2K_COMPLIANT_MUA_DATES. There's some commentary in
1826 acconfig.h about when you might not want to #define it.
1828 * Created new dtimep.c-lexed with Simon's change using dtimep.lex
1829 lexed on Solaris 2.6. Added missing dependency in
1830 zotnet/tws/Makefile.in for dtimep.c: dtimep.c-lexed.
1832 * Added scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD format files.
1834 Mon Mar 13 21:32:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1836 * Applied Sullivan N. Beck <sbeck@cise.ufl.edu>'s mhshow-suffix patch:
1838 With the patch below, you can add lines like:
1840 mhshow-suffix-application/msword: .doc
1841 mhshow-suffix-application/PostScript: .ps
1843 to the mhn.defaults file to append the given suffix to a
1844 scratch file. This allows applications which require a
1845 certain suffix to run properly.
1847 * Removed -force_html from lynx entry in mhn.defaults.sh (I
1848 believe older versions of lynx lack that option) and added
1849 "mhshow-suffix-text/html: .html".
1851 * Modified username_extension masquerading to only use the
1852 extended address on generated [Resent-]From: lines and SMTP
1853 envelope From:. With Neil's original implementation, nmh's global
1854 idea of the username was changed, which would result in inc lying
1855 and saying you had no new mail because it was looking for a
1856 mailbox called, for instance, "dan-nmh" (where username was "dan"
1857 and $USERNAME_EXTENSION was "-nmh").
1859 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtime.c patch:
1861 There's a wrap-around problem that affects the implementation
1862 of Zeller's congruence in dtime.c. This causes the day-of-week
1863 calculations to fail for dates after Feb 29, 2000 (probably up
1864 until some year far in the future).
1866 Mon Mar 06 12:20:20 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1868 * Applied Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s msh.c patch:
1870 I finally tracked down the problem in msh that was causing
1871 errors whenever I tried to examine a 'mmdf' style mailbox.
1873 It turns out that not enough memory was being allocated with
1874 calloc(), causing memory pointers to be overwritten and
1877 Fri Mar 03 16:07:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1879 * Changed the new "plussed_user" option to mts.conf's
1880 "masquerade:" to "username_extension" after getting feedback from
1881 qmail users, who use '-' as a separator rather than '+'. Removed
1882 checking of $USERPLUS variable. Now check $USERNAME_EXTENSION,
1883 which needs to include the appropriate separator for your MTA
1884 ('-', '+', or whatever) as its first character.
1886 Thu Mar 02 23:04:30 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1888 * Added a new "boolean" type to mh.h and TRUE and FALSE constants.
1890 * Added a note to DIFFERENCES stating that it's out-of-date
1891 (Richard was the last one to update it) and that we should
1892 consider only documenting incompatibilities with MH there.
1894 * Implemented (and documented) a third kind of username
1895 masquerading: "plussed user" masquerading. This one was suggested
1896 by Neil Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>. It's based on sendmail's
1897 "plussed user" feature, where mail sent to <user>+<string> will be
1898 delivered to <user>. When it's enabled, it's controlled by the
1899 $USERPLUS environment variable. How is it enabled? Well, that
1902 * Renamed the "mmailid:" setting in mts.conf to "masquerade:", and
1903 changed it so that rather than being a boolean, it can be set to
1904 any combination of the three values "draft_from", "mmailid", and
1905 "plussed_user". Thus it is now possible to enable the three types
1906 of masquerading individually.
1908 * Fixed a bug with "mmailid" masquerading (dating back to MH?)
1909 where if it was turned on, ','s would no longer be considered
1910 GECOS field delimiters.
1912 Wed Mar 01 23:30:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1914 * Changed the GECOS-field '&' translation behavior to be
1915 controlled by the BSD42 #define rather than GCOS_HACK, since it's
1916 apparently always appropriate on OSes where BSD42 is #defined, and
1917 never appropriate on any other OSes. Thanks to Kimmo Suominen for
1918 responding to my "What is this code here for?" comment in mts.c
1919 and explaining the feature.
1921 Mon Feb 28 21:50:29 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1923 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3+dev (ideally this should be
1924 done by whoever makes a release tar file, immediately after doing
1927 * Applied Paul Fox <pgf-spam@foxharp.boston.ma.us>'s scansbr.c
1928 patch, posted to comp.mail.mh, which he says prevents loss of mail
1929 when inc'ing into a full filesystem.
1931 * Changed "echo > stamp-h.in" in Makefile.in to "date > stamp-h.in"
1932 so that stamp-h.in will be different each time configure.in and
1933 related files are changed, making it easier to check it in (which
1934 is necessary to prevent unnecessary autoconf calls).
1936 * My declaration of initgroups() in slocal.c to eliminate the "no
1937 prototype" warning wasn't portable (FreeBSD 3.[23] choked). Now
1938 use AC_EGREP_HEADER to see where initgroups() is declared, if
1941 Sun Feb 20 12:17:15 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1943 * Fix security hole in mhshowsbr.c which allowed untrusted shell
1944 code to be executed.
1946 * Released nmh 1.0.3.
1948 Thu Feb 10 10:54:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1950 * Oops. %-escapes on mhstore lines in mhn.defaults.sh should not
1951 be surrounded by single quotes, as a shell is not spawned when
1952 just saving files, and the filenames will end up with literal
1953 quotes embedded in them.
1955 Fri Feb 04 12:29:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1957 * Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
1958 got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
1959 the -help output. One theory is that they were making reference
1960 to the fact that clearly you know about the -help option since
1961 you're currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea
1962 to overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
1963 supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
1966 The other theory is that because you can say something like
1967 "mhstore -" and get "mhstore: - ambiguous. It matches" followed
1968 by the same list of switches you get with -help, they were saying
1969 you can "sorta" abbreviate "-help" as "-". You don't get the
1970 "Usage:" string, though, so it's not really the same thing.
1972 Thu Feb 03 17:52:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1974 * Applied wesley.craig@umich.edu's KPOP patches. According to him:
1976 The following patch fixes a problem with requesting a
1977 service key for a machine that has multiple 'A' records. It
1978 also makes "-kpop" a command line option, for users who
1979 would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".
1981 Did no testing of the new features, as I don't have access to a
1984 * Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
1986 * Modified INSTALL and config.h.in to reflect the new -kpop feature.
1988 Fri Jan 28 17:39:24 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1990 * All %-escapes in mhn.defaults that actually expand to something
1991 should be surrounded by single quotes. Added quotes to the ones
1992 in mhn.defaults.sh that were missing them.
1994 * Added check for lynx to write mhshow-show-text/html line in
1997 Thu Jan 27 12:22:25 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1999 * makedir() had multiple bugs dating back to MH. An octal
2000 constant was apparently being interpreted as decimal, resulting in
2001 directories with no user read or execute permissions, making
2002 nested directory creation fail. And there wasn't even an
2003 _attempt_ to set desired permissions (e.g. from "Folder-Protect:"
2004 in .mh_profile) on the outer directories of a nested directory.
2006 * A second `make install' would always fail because the check for
2007 whether mh_profile.5 existed was written incorrectly.
2009 Wed Jan 26 02:22:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
2011 * Added documentation on both types of masquerading to post's man
2014 Tue Jan 25 22:58:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
2016 * Doug's portability fix of my setgid inc autodetection had a
2017 caching bug -- if you re-ran configure, uip/Makefile would be
2018 corrupted, and installation would bomb out on OSes where inc needs
2021 * Implemented a new kind of email address masquerading. Usually,
2022 when a user writes a custom "From:" header in a draft, nmh uses it
2023 rather than generating one. However, the user's true address is
2024 used in the SMTP envelope "From:" and is revealed in the "Sender:"
2025 header. Now, when mmailid is set to non-zero, the envelope
2026 "From:" uses the address specified in the draft "From:" header,
2027 and there is no "Sender:" header. This is useful when sending on
2028 behalf of a remote POP3 account or when remote mail robots
2029 incorrectly use the envelope "From:" in preference to the body
2030 "From:". This processing has only been implemented for post, not
2031 for the undocumented spost (which was already missing some "From:"
2032 processing that post has).
2034 Mon Jan 24 22:26:06 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
2036 * Got rid of the rest of the gcc -Wall warnings that I didn't have
2037 time for on 1999-07-15 (and, it would seem, some new ones people
2038 introduced since then). The primary ones were the warnings that
2039 default prototypes were being used for [v]snprintf() and
2040 str[n]casecmp(). As of right now, there are _no_ compilation
2041 warnings except on dtimep.c-lexed (at least under AIX 4.1.5 and
2044 Sun Jan 2 23:42:18 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
2046 * Move mhtest from bindir to libdir.
2048 * Move sendfiles from libdir to bindir.
2050 * Updated sendfiles manpage to reflect this change.
2052 * Added documentation for -build and -file switches to repl and
2053 forw manpages (patch from Peter Maydell).
2055 * Fixed interaction between specifying -cc in profile and -group on
2058 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
2060 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
2061 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
2062 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
2065 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
2067 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
2068 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
2069 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
2070 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
2071 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
2072 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).
2074 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2076 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
2078 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2080 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
2081 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
2082 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
2083 caught again. This works for now.
2085 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
2087 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2089 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
2090 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
2092 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
2094 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
2095 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
2097 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
2099 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
2101 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2103 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
2104 changes. Both need more cleanup.
2106 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2108 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
2109 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
2110 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
2111 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
2112 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
2115 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2117 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
2118 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
2119 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
2121 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
2122 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
2125 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
2127 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
2128 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
2129 to a directory on another device with more free space.
2131 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
2133 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
2134 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
2136 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
2138 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
2141 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
2142 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
2144 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
2145 macros, regardless of platform.
2147 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
2148 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
2150 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
2151 with x-conversions=gzip.
2153 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2155 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
2158 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
2159 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
2160 implicit definition of ioctl().
2162 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
2163 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
2164 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
2165 want to mess with them.
2167 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2169 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
2170 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
2172 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
2173 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
2175 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
2176 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
2177 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
2179 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
2180 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
2181 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
2183 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
2184 function initgroups.
2186 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
2189 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
2190 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
2193 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
2194 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
2197 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
2198 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
2202 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2204 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
2205 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
2206 preventing compilation on at least linux.
2208 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
2209 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
2211 Thu Sep 09 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2213 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
2215 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
2216 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
2217 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
2218 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
2220 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
2221 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
2223 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
2225 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
2227 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
2229 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
2230 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
2232 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
2234 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
2235 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
2237 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
2238 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
2239 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
2240 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
2242 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
2243 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
2245 Sat Jun 09 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2247 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
2248 substitute it for mktemp if available.
2250 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2252 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
2253 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
2256 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
2258 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
2260 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
2262 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
2263 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
2265 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
2266 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
2267 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
2269 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
2270 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
2271 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
2273 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
2274 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
2275 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
2277 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
2278 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
2281 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
2282 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
2284 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
2285 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
2287 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
2288 <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
2290 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
2291 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
2292 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
2294 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
2295 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
2297 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
2298 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
2299 <elleron@servtech.com>.
2301 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
2302 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
2305 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
2306 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
2308 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
2309 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
2310 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
2311 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
2313 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
2314 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
2316 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2320 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
2321 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
2322 would not be changed.
2324 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
2325 one from the Apache web server.
2327 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
2328 (this should have been done a long time ago).
2330 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
2331 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
2332 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
2334 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
2336 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
2338 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
2339 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
2342 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
2343 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
2344 removes a bad race condition.
2346 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
2349 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
2350 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
2351 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
2353 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
2354 sequence information.
2356 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
2357 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
2359 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
2362 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
2365 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
2367 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
2368 interpret 034 as octal.
2370 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
2372 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
2373 mhstore, and mhbuild.
2375 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
2376 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
2378 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
2379 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
2381 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
2382 in the c_cefile structure when building.
2384 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
2385 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
2387 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
2388 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
2389 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
2391 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
2392 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
2393 and mhshow. Updated man pages
2395 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
2397 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
2399 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
2400 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
2403 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
2405 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
2406 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
2408 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
2409 header field information.
2411 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
2412 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
2414 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
2415 values when parsing a content.
2417 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
2418 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
2420 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
2421 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
2423 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
2424 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
2426 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
2427 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
2429 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
2431 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
2433 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
2435 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
2437 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
2438 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
2441 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
2442 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
2444 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
2445 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
2446 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
2447 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
2448 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
2449 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
2452 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
2454 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
2455 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
2456 buffer length checks for this parameter.
2458 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
2459 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
2461 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
2463 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
2464 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
2465 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
2466 of the limits on the length of command lines.
2468 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
2469 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
2472 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
2473 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
2474 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
2475 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
2478 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2480 * Released nmh-0.27.
2482 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
2483 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
2485 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
2486 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
2487 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
2488 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
2491 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
2492 mhbuild returns an error.
2494 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
2495 rename the draft file.
2497 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
2498 use a global variable.
2500 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
2501 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
2503 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
2504 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
2506 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
2507 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
2508 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
2510 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
2511 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
2513 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
2514 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
2517 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
2518 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
2521 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
2522 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
2524 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
2525 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
2526 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
2528 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
2529 to new function output_content_folder.
2531 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
2532 new function output_content_file.
2534 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
2535 to new function parse_format_string.
2537 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
2538 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
2539 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
2540 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
2542 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
2543 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
2544 message/external file from ftp.
2546 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
2547 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
2548 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
2550 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
2551 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
2554 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
2557 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
2558 new file mhstoresbr.c
2560 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
2563 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
2564 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
2566 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
2567 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
2569 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
2570 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
2571 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
2573 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
2575 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
2577 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
2578 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
2581 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
2582 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
2584 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
2587 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
2589 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2591 * Released nmh-0.26.
2593 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
2594 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
2595 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
2596 is still the same (dashstuffing).
2598 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
2599 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
2600 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
2601 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
2602 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
2604 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
2605 But it is not on by default.
2607 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
2608 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
2610 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
2612 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
2614 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
2616 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
2618 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
2619 number of the "cur" message when packing.
2621 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2623 * Released nmh-0.25.
2625 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
2626 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
2627 uses the original name of the library.
2629 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
2630 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
2633 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
2634 list_content and list_debug.
2636 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
2638 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
2639 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.
2641 1998-02-27 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2643 * Released nmh-0.24.
2645 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
2647 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
2648 are given, that order doesn't matter.
2650 * Fix bug in seq_list.c when realloc'ing for
2651 large sequence line.
2653 1998-02-23 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2655 * Released nmh-0.23.
2657 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
2659 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
2660 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan
2661 content, decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary
2662 string). I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
2664 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
2665 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
2668 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
2670 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
2672 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
2674 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
2675 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
2677 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
2678 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.
2680 * Add note to MACHINES file that on Linux, configure
2681 doesn't find the functions sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
2683 * Fix configuration for machines that don't have (or find)
2684 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
2686 1998-02-11 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2688 * Released nmh-0.22.
2690 * Add a configure check for sigsetjmp. Add some conditional
2691 #define's in h/signals.h in case it's not found.
2693 * Added additional notes about -auto switch in mhn man page.
2695 * Added note about MM_CHARSET environment variable to
2696 mh-profile(5) man page.
2698 * Fix signal problem in mhn.c (change setjmp/longjmp to
2699 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp).
2701 1998-02-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2703 * Released nmh-0.22-pre1.
2705 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
2706 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
2708 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
2710 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
2711 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
2712 entry point for parsing MIME files.
2714 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
2715 source message on the standard input.
2717 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
2719 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
2720 rather than -rfc934mode.
2722 * Fix mhbuild, so that Content-Description and RFC-822 comments
2723 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
2726 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
2727 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).
2729 * Restore HP specific code to zotnet/tws/lexstring.c. Apparently
2732 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2734 * Released nmh-0.21.
2736 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
2737 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.
2739 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what transfer
2742 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what character set
2743 to use for text contents.
2745 * Removed old hpux specific code from zotnet/tws/lexstring.c
2747 1998-02-02 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2749 * Released nmh-0.21-pre2.
2751 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
2753 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
2754 header fields as per RFC-2047.
2756 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
2757 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
2758 spaces between encoded word are.
2760 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
2762 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
2763 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
2765 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
2766 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
2767 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
2769 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
2771 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
2772 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
2774 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.
2776 * Added support for %(decode) to fmtdump.c.

2779 ISO-8859-X character set.
2781 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
2784 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
2785 permissions, not write permissions.
2787 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
2788 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
2790 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
2793 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2795 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
2797 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
2798 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
2800 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
2801 message contains valid character set.
2803 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
2804 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
2806 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
2807 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
2809 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
2810 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
2811 between an encoded word and normal text.
2813 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
2814 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
2816 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
2817 as a RFC-2047 header field.
2819 * The command install-mh now recognizes the switches -version
2822 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
2823 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
2826 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
2827 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
2829 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
2830 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
2832 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
2834 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2836 * Released nmh-0.20.
2838 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
2840 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.
2842 * Changed the default format file for mhl (mhl.format) to
2843 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
2844 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
2846 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
2847 and the To: line was missing.
2849 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
2851 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2853 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
2855 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
2856 watch the POP transaction.
2858 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
2859 first, and use it if available.
2861 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
2862 first, and use it if available.
2864 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2866 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
2868 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
2869 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
2870 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
2873 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
2874 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
2875 returns the state FLDPLUS.
2877 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
2878 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
2881 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
2883 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
2884 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
2886 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
2888 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
2889 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
2891 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
2892 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
2893 message to which you are replying.
2895 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
2896 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
2897 making group replies.
2899 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
2901 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2903 * Released nmh-0.19.
2905 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
2906 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
2908 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
2909 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
2910 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
2911 to the end of the man page.
2913 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
2914 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
2915 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
2916 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
2917 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
2918 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
2920 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
2923 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
2924 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
2925 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
2927 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
2928 the next available number above the message number you wish
2931 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
2932 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
2934 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
2935 file sbr/seq_print.c
2937 * flist will now update the current folder.
2939 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
2940 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
2941 but now undocumented.
2943 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
2946 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
2947 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
2949 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
2951 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
2952 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
2954 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2956 * Released nmh-0.18.
2958 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
2959 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
2960 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
2962 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
2963 retains the public/private status of sequences.
2965 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
2966 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
2967 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
2968 previous public/private status.
2970 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
2973 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
2976 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
2977 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
2978 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
2980 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
2981 take option to determine whether it should get current
2982 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
2983 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
2985 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
2987 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
2988 wait for stopped processes.
2990 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
2991 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
2993 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2995 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
2997 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
2998 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
3000 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
3001 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
3003 * Change the way that memory for message status is
3004 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
3005 the folder/message structure. This required changing
3006 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
3008 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
3011 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
3014 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
3016 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
3017 the debugging output.
3019 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
3020 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
3022 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3024 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
3026 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
3027 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
3029 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
3031 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
3032 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
3033 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
3034 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
3035 in the given sequence.
3037 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
3038 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
3039 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
3040 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
3041 subdirectories of a given directory.
3043 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
3044 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
3045 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
3047 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
3048 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
3050 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
3052 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
3055 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
3056 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
3057 fields are now calculated at runtime.
3059 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
3060 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
3061 are calculated at runtime.
3063 Sun Nov 30 19:14:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3065 * Released nmh-0.18-pre2.
3067 * Add paragraph to man page for install-mh and to INSTALL file
3068 about checking for global mh.profile.
3070 * Renamed m_find() to context_find().
3071 Renamed m_replace() to context_replace().
3072 Renamed m_delete() to context_del().
3073 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
3074 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
3075 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
3077 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
3078 adding message to folder itself.
3080 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
3081 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
3082 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
3085 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
3086 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
3089 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
3090 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
3091 is the same as the direct smtp code).
3093 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
3094 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
3096 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
3097 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
3098 code to use it yet).
3100 Thu Nov 13 18:42:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3102 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.
3104 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never
3105 called with a value larger than 30 mintues.
3107 * Fixed race condition in rmm and refile, so that
3108 context is updated before external rmmproc is called.
3110 * Removed all the OVERHEAD code.
3112 * Move code to add message to folder from refile.c
3115 Fri Jul 25 19:39:29 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3117 * Did some rearranging of the internals of inc.c.
3119 * Make -inplace the default for anno, forw, dist, and repl.
3121 * Changed --enable-smtp to --with-mts={smtp,sendmail}
3123 * Created new directory mts/sendmail for direct sendmail
3124 interface (although it currently still uses SMTP).
3126 * Removed all the TMA (trusted mail agent) code
3128 * Removed all the TTYD (terminal access daemon) code
3130 * Removed all the MF (uucp filtering) code.
3132 * Removed all the code for BERK.
3134 * Removed all the code for stand-alone delivery (MHMTS).
3136 * Split the file mts/sendmail/smail.c into sendmail.c and
3137 smtp.c. Changed the name of the directory to mts/smtp.
3139 * Changed autoconf to use @sysconfdir@ for location of
3140 configuration files.
3142 * Changed #define in mhn.c from FTP to BUILTIN_FTP.
3144 Mon Jul 21 03:22:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3146 * Released nmh-0.17.
3148 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
3150 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
3151 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
3153 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
3156 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
3157 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
3159 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
3160 number of refiled message.
3162 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
3164 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
3165 for return value of wait().
3167 * Change configure to also check /bin for "more".
3169 Sat Jul 12 00:02:23 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3171 * Released nmh-0.16.
3173 Mon Jun 23 20:13:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3175 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
3177 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
3178 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
3179 deal with binary messages, yet).
3181 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
3183 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
3185 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
3186 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
3187 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
3188 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
3189 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
3190 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
3192 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
3193 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
3195 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
3196 From MH-6.8.4 patch.
3198 * Fix double free of ctinfo in user_content when using
3199 #forw with single message. From John MacMillan (and
3202 * Changed -mhnproc switch for show, to -showmimeproc.
3204 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".
3206 * Added "mime" option to "whatnow", which calls the program
3207 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
3210 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
3213 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
3215 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
3216 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
3217 which used unsigned chars by default.
3219 Sat Jun 21 01:21:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3221 * Released nmh-0.15.
3223 * Added new form "scan.unseen" to distribution. It marks messages

3228 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
3230 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
3233 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
3234 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
3235 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
3237 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
3238 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
3240 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
3242 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
3243 they conflict with defines on AIX.
3245 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
3246 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
3247 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
3248 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
3250 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
3251 and put in own subroutine.
3253 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
3254 and put in own subroutine.
3256 * Moved code to remove messages from folder into own
3257 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and
3258 refile.c to use new routine.
3260 Fri May 16 06:09:31 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3262 * Renamed m_seqok to seq_nameok.
3264 * Changed m_setunseen, msh, mshcmds, flist, and scan to use
3267 * Changed m_seqflag to return the number of a sequence rather
3268 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
3269 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
3271 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
3274 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before
3275 adding message to sequence.
3277 * Renamed function m_setvis to m_setunseen, and renamed
3278 corresponding file in sbr.
3280 * Renamed function m_setseq to m_setprev, and renamed corresponding
3283 * Changed mark.c and pick.c to use m_seqaddsel and m_seqdelsel.
3285 * Added new function m_seqdelsel to m_seqdel.c, which deletes
3286 all selected messages from a sequence.
3288 * Added new function m_seqaddsel to m_seqadd.c, which adds all
3289 selected messages to a sequence.
3291 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,
3294 Thu May 15 00:53:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3296 * Renamed function pack_folder to m_packfolder, and moved it
3297 from uip/folder.c into its own file sbr/m_packfolder.c
3299 Wed May 14 23:38:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3301 * Changed function m_gmsg to m_readfolder. Renamed file
3302 sbr/m_gmsg.c to sbr/m_readfolder.c.

3311 * Released nmh-0.14.
3313 * Comment out configure test and code for tgetent to allocate its
3314 own termcap buffer when passed a NULL argument.
3316 Sat Apr 26 03:46:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3318 * Added new options `-checkmime', `-nocheckmime', and `-mhnproc'
3319 to show. Restructured code to handle options to various
3320 `procs' better. Deprecated `-noshowproc' option and NOMHNPROC
3321 environment variable.
3323 * Added new man page `mh-draft' which documents the
3324 draft folder facility in nmh.

3342 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
3343 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
3346 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
3347 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
3349 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3351 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if
3352 necessary. So `folders' can now handle more than 300 folders.
3354 Tue Apr 22 14:01:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3356 * Change configure to use a compile check to see if the tm struct

3385 will suppress the display of the message header.
3387 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
3389 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c

3394 * Add configure test for lorder and tsort commands.
3396 * Commented out the padding in the `msgs` struct in h/mh.h

3402 not sent. Need to use -body "" to send empty messages.
3404 * zotnet/mts/mts.c : compare character with '\0', not NULL.
3406 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
3408 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
3409 folder/message structure when done with folder.
3411 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is
3412 defined even if message is missing "From " line.

3436 * client.c: cast iaddr to int before comparing return value
3437 of inet_addr with NOTOK.
3439 Tue Mar 11 04:38:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3441 * Grep test for signal names was failing on some OS'es because

3471 * rcvtty.c : Changed to use #define UTMP_FILE (if exists) rather
3472 than hard coded "/etc/utmp".
3474 * Released nmh-0.08.
3476 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
3477 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of
3478 locking database itself.
3480 Thu Feb 27 05:28:09 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3482 * Added slocal action `mmdf' to deliver to a file in mmdf format.
3484 * Changed the slocal actions `file' and `>' to always deliver in
3485 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
3488 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
3489 rather than mmdf format.
3491 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
3492 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
3493 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
3494 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
3496 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
3498 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3500 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
3503 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
3504 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
3505 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
3507 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
3508 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
3509 rcvpack so you can choose the preferred format.
3511 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3513 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
3514 can still easily change this in config.h).
3516 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
3517 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
3518 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
3520 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3522 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather

3537 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
3539 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
3540 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
3543 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
3544 built-in FTP client in mhn.

3557 * Released nmh-0.06.
3559 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
3560 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
3562 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
3563 many such machines around anymore.
3565 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
3566 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
3568 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
3569 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
3571 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3573 * Check lex generated file in zotnet/tws and use
3574 pre-generated version if necessary.
3576 * Released nmh-0.05.
3578 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
3579 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
3580 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
3581 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
3583 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
3584 be linked in one pass.
3586 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3588 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
3589 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
3591 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3593 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
3595 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3597 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
3598 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
3599 become the current folder.
3601 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3603 * Released nmh-0.04.
3605 * Define ospeed and PC in termsbr.c is OS doesn't have
3608 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3610 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
3611 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
3612 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
3614 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3616 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
3617 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
3619 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3621 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
3622 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
3625 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
3626 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
3628 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3630 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
3631 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
3632 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
3633 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
3634 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
3635 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
3637 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3639 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
3640 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
3642 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
3643 a file (currently need to specify full path).
3645 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3647 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
3648 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
3650 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3652 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
3653 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
3654 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
3656 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3658 * Released nmh-0.03.
3660 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
3661 .mh_sequence file existed.
3663 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
3664 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
3666 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
3667 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
3670 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3672 * Changed flist option -unseen to -[no]all. Cleaned up
3675 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3677 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
3678 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
3679 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
3681 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3683 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
3684 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
3685 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
3687 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3689 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL
3690 and allocate its own buffer. Borrowed from zsh.
3692 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
3694 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3696 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
3697 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
3698 directory from where the source code is located.
3700 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3702 * Released nmh-0.02.

3722 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
3723 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
3724 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
3725 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
3726 rather than in script.
3728 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3730 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
3732 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with
3733 macro defined on Solaris.
3735 Thu Dec 26 02:50:15 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3737 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
3738 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
3740 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
3741 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
3742 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
3743 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
3746 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3748 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
3749 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.
3751 * Fixed configure test so that termcap variable ospeed is
3754 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3756 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
3758 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included
3759 in mhn.c. Changed md5 to use memset and memcpy.
3761 Fri Dec 20 02:29:37 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3763 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
3764 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
3766 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3768 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
3769 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
3770 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
3771 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
3772 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
3773 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
3775 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3777 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
3779 * Released nmh-0.01.
3781 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
3782 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
3783 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
3786 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3788 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
3791 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3793 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
3794 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
3796 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3798 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
3799 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
3800 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
3801 script to find_program.
3803 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3805 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
3806 speed up -recurse option.
3808 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
3809 yet, but it compiles :-)
3811 * Changed default location for install to
3812 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
3813 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
3814 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
3817 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
3818 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
3819 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
