1 Tue May 09 01:13:52 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
3 * Alphabetized Shantonu's $pop_kinds output on configure's "pop is
4 enabled" line. If POP3 is the only kind of POP enabled, say so,
5 rather than just saying "yes" (which is ambiguous).
7 * Fixed four warnings in Shantonu's new getpass.c. Needed to
8 #include <stdlib.h> for calloc(), <unistd.h> for ttyname(), and
9 "h/mh.h" for adios(). Also changed ch from char to int to get rid
10 of "comparison is always 1 due to limited range of data type" on EOF.
12 * Added steps to README.developers saying to change the version
13 number to X.Y.Z+dev. Did a little rearranging and changed the FTP
14 dir from /home/ftp to /var/ftp to reflect Doug's new machine.
16 Mon May 08 23:51:55 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
18 * Doug informed me that the way I had restored the "lost" version
19 histories was wrong, because `cvs checkout's of old versions of
20 nmh wouldn't work properly. It occurs to me that this could be
21 fixed by simply deleting those tags in the new-location *,v files,
22 but oh well. I'm putting everything back to the way Doug
23 originally had it. To get the old version history for a file that
24 used to be in the top directory, you'll need to "blindly" do a
25 `cvs log' there (even though you won't have a local copy of the
26 file in that directory). `cvs diff' will no longer be able to
27 diff pre-move versions vs. post-move versions -- you'll have to do
28 a lot of manual gyrations with `cvs checkout' and then use `diff'.
30 * I had alphabetized the --configure options in the --help output
31 awhile back, but Shantonu added --enable-apop just under
32 --enable-pop. Put it in alphabetical order and clarified what
33 --enable-apop does vs. --enable-pop and --with-krb4. Also changed
34 --with-mts help line from "mail transport agent" to "mail
35 transport agent/service" so the 's' in "mts" doesn't seem to come
38 * Added two steps to "releasing nmh" in README.developers. After
39 making the tarball, it's a good idea to diff the tree vs. the CVS
40 tree to make sure no files got left out, and then to chown the
41 files so that they're owned by root, preventing a Trojaning attack
42 by a malicious remote user with a UID matching yours.
44 * Changed DIFFERENCES to say that RPOP is not currently supported
45 rather than implying it by saying that APOP, KPOP, and POP[3] are.
47 Sat May 06 08:28:09 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
49 * Restored lost version histories for those moved files by doing a
50 manual `mv' in the CVSROOT on mhost. CVS badly needs a `cvs mv'
51 command so that you can move files (without having physical access
52 to the CVSROOT) without losing versioning. Put MACHINES back at
53 the top level as it needs to be read before building. Fixed DIST
54 variable in {.,docs}/Makefile.in to reflect that and to add
55 missing entry for "INSTALL" file.
57 Sat May 06 13:13:07 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
59 * Re-cleaned up nmh documentation (by moving things to docs
60 subdir) and modified Makefile & configure.in to handle the change.
62 Mon Apr 17 21:28:40 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
64 * Scott Blachowicz pointed out that the configure --help output
65 for --enable-masquerade was misleading. Clarified.
67 Mon Apr 17 19:01:00 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
69 * APOP support can be compiled in to inc and msgchk using
72 * To access an APOP host, specify -apop on the command line
73 along with any -host or -user option.
75 Fri Apr 14 23:10:44 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
77 * Upped the version number to 1.0.4+dev until the next nmh release.
79 * Added a "releasing nmh" section to README.developers, while the
80 process was fresh in my mind.
82 Fri Apr 14 18:21:34 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
84 * Added new files README.developers, ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6, and
85 ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html to DIST target in Makefile.in.
89 Tue Apr 11 21:37:03 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
91 * Applied Brian Campbell <bacam@tardis.ed.ac.uk>'s mhn.defaults.sh
94 It appears that there shouldn't be quotes around the %s in the
95 iso-8859-1 charset entry; xterm passes the remaining arguments
96 to the program, quoting them means that xterm thinks they're
97 part of the program's name.
99 This %s isn't the same as the "Insert content subtype" one from
100 mhshow-show-* -- it doesn't come from MIME headers and is safe not
103 Sun Apr 09 13:03:59 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
105 * added check in fmt_compile() to handle a single-character
106 format string. fmt_compile() depends on having an array of
107 format characters with an empty item at the end. A
108 single-character format would cause programs using this
109 function to segfault because the algorithm used to decide on
110 the length of the array mistakenly created a single-item array
111 when the format string was one character. This eventually
112 caused problems when the program attempted to test item+1
115 Thu Apr 06 21:53:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
117 * Richard Coleman threw out a lot of old MH-specific files in nmh.
118 Much of the stuff, indeed, is not worth saving, but there are
119 nuggets that are very worthwhile, and should probably be added
120 back in. Most important, IMHO, are the MH change logs, as they
121 can help answer questions like "Why is this code like this?" or
122 "How long has this been broken?" or "What was this ever used for?"
124 I've added a new file to the nmh tree called
125 ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6. It's cobbled together from the
126 mh-6.8.4/papers/mh*/MHCHANGES files. I've re-ordered the entries
127 to go from newest at the top to oldest at the bottom to match the
128 ChangeLog convention. Unfortunately there are no change logs for
129 versions of MH prior to 3 in the MH tar files available at
130 <ftp://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/mh>. Also, it appears to me that there
131 are MH-6.6 changes that aren't documented in the logs.
133 I've also added ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html. This is
134 based on mh-6.8.4/papers/changes/mh-changes.ms. The nroff format
135 and its "catman"-type output are a pain to deal with, but I was
136 loath to throw away the formatting, so I converted the file to
137 HTML. The only actual markup in the body are the "<B>" and "<U>"
138 tags, and "<" and ">" instead of '<' and '>', so it's quite
139 doable to view the file in plain ASCII mode as well. Note that
140 some of the changes this file documents as having been made in
141 MH-6.8.4 may not be present in nmh -- Richard started with 6.8.3
142 and later put in certain 6.8.4 stuff.
144 Wed Apr 05 21:09:28 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
146 * Applied Eric Schnoebelen <eric@cirr.com>'s mhshowsbr.c patch
147 fixing apparent bugs in Dan Winship's new security quoting code:
149 Since upgrading, I've been getting the following errors
150 while attempting to process some MIME messages:
152 (1) Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
157 (2) line 1/10 (END)Segmentation fault (core dumped)
159 (2) appears to be due to the testing of an unset pointer in
160 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux(). (1) appears to be caused by
161 mis-quoting a filename being handed to the shell in
162 mhshowsbr.c:show_content_aux().
164 Resolving the pointer reference issue in
165 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux() turned up a similar mis-quoting
166 problem in the routine.
168 Tue Mar 28 16:17:39 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
170 * Applied Todd.Miller@courtesan.com's patch to dropsbr.c to
171 prevent core dumping on packf. Here's the note from his message:
173 Since sizeof(buffer) == sizeof(tmpbuffer) packf will dump
174 core on a file w/o a From line with a line >= BUFSIZ.
175 I noticed this because I had a junk file in my mail
178 Fri Mar 17 11:59:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
180 * wesley.craig@umich.edu did not document his previous KPOP patch,
181 so I did so, and asked him to check what I wrote. Unfortunately
182 he didn't notice my misunderstanding of his patch. I wrote that
183 if you #define POPSERVICE "kpop", inc and msgchk will use KPOP
184 exclusively, but if you leave it as "pop3", you can use Wesley's
185 new -kpop switch on a given invocation. Instead, however, -kpop
186 turned out to be necessary on every invocation, and a KPOP user
187 complained. Applied Wesley's new patch, which makes things work
188 like I thought his original patch did. After that, did one more
189 clarifying pass to the documentation in inc.man and msgchk.man.
191 Wed Mar 15 18:45:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
193 * When I fixed the long-standing makedir() bugs in January, I had
194 the code call strtoul(..., 0), which I believed to be safe as all
195 modes specified as ASCII constants in the nmh code started with a
196 leading zero (signifying octal), which I did as it would work if
197 internal constants were ever changed to hex. Unfortunately I was
198 unaware of the "Folder-Protect:" .mh_profile entry, which
199 mh-profile.man documents as an octal-only constant, with no
200 leading zero required. I've changed the strtoul() call to an
201 atooi() call and removed the misleading leading zeroes on the
202 ASCII octal constants in the code and man pages. Also changed the
203 "Folder-Protect:" example in the man page to something more
204 interesting than a duplication of the default.
206 * When I added my --enable-masquerade option, you'll note that I
207 didn't make it --enable-nmh-masquerade. I find the --enable-nmh-*
208 options too wordy and I'm not sure why Richard went that route.
209 I've renamed them to just --enable-*, but the old versions will
210 still work as well (they just aren't advertised).
212 * Added a line to the "nmh configuration" output saying whether
215 * Added a new README.developers file. From the file:
217 This file is intended to provide a few tips for anyone doing
218 development on nmh. Developers who learn things "the hard
219 way" about the nmh codebase (as opposed to local info best
220 encoded in a comment) are encouraged to share their wisdom
223 Currently the topics are "autoconf files" and "directory structure".
225 Tue Mar 14 12:41:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
227 * Applied, after some finessing,
228 Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s --with-smtpservers patch:
230 Here's a patch that allows you to add
232 --with-smtpservers=<some.host.name>
234 to the ./configure command line to set the "servers: " line in
235 etc/mts.conf. Around here, we use "mailhost" so that all
236 machines in the current domain just talk to a central machine
237 and nothing else runs an MTA. Now, I can use
239 --with-smtpservers=mailhost
241 instead of having to remember to fix this by hand (and often
242 forgetting to do so!).
244 * Inspired by Simon's patch, added an --enable-masquerade option
245 to configure. It will set the "masquerade:" line of mts.conf.
246 You may specify a subset of the three types of masquerading, like
247 --enable-masquerade="draft_from mmailid", or leave off explicit
248 arguments to enable all three types.
250 * Alphabetized the --enable and --with options in configure.in and
251 INSTALL and added documentation of the two new options to the latter.
253 * Added new dependency for mts.conf: Makefile. If this isn't
254 done, then when you reconfigure nmh with new values for
255 --enable-masquerade or --with-smtpservers, you'll fail to get an
256 updated copy of mts.conf.
258 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtimep.lex patch:
260 It seems that some MUA's didn't handle y2k very well - ELM
261 seems to be one of them, and Ultrix's DXmail (based on MH!).
262 I've got a few emails this month that look like:
264 575 Jan 00 Xxxxxx Xxxx 3603 ...
266 22+ Jan 00 Xxx Xxxxx 1771 ...
268 The first has "15 Jan 100" as the date and the second has
269 "19 Jan 00" as the date. The following works around this so
270 that scan, show, sortm, etc work ok.
272 I put Simon's patch under the control of a new #define called
273 FIX_NON_Y2K_COMPLIANT_MUA_DATES. There's some commentary in
274 acconfig.h about when you might not want to #define it.
276 * Created new dtimep.c-lexed with Simon's change using dtimep.lex
277 lexed on Solaris 2.6. Added missing dependency in
278 zotnet/tws/Makefile.in for dtimep.c: dtimep.c-lexed.
280 * Added scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD format files.
282 Mon Mar 13 21:32:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
284 * Applied Sullivan N. Beck <sbeck@cise.ufl.edu>'s mhshow-suffix patch:
286 With the patch below, you can add lines like:
288 mhshow-suffix-application/msword: .doc
289 mhshow-suffix-application/PostScript: .ps
291 to the mhn.defaults file to append the given suffix to a
292 scratch file. This allows applications which require a
293 certain suffix to run properly.
295 * Removed -force_html from lynx entry in mhn.defaults.sh (I
296 believe older versions of lynx lack that option) and added
297 "mhshow-suffix-text/html: .html".
299 * Modified username_extension masquerading to only use the
300 extended address on generated [Resent-]From: lines and SMTP
301 envelope From:. With Neil's original implementation, nmh's global
302 idea of the username was changed, which would result in inc lying
303 and saying you had no new mail because it was looking for a
304 mailbox called, for instance, "dan-nmh" (where username was "dan"
305 and $USERNAME_EXTENSION was "-nmh").
307 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtime.c patch:
309 There's a wrap-around problem that affects the implementation
310 of Zeller's congruence in dtime.c. This causes the day-of-week
311 calculations to fail for dates after Feb 29, 2000 (probably up
312 until some year far in the future).
314 Mon Mar 06 12:20:20 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
316 * Applied Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s msh.c patch:
318 I finally tracked down the problem in msh that was causing
319 errors whenever I tried to examine a 'mmdf' style mailbox.
321 It turns out that not enough memory was being allocated with
322 calloc(), causing memory pointers to be overwritten and
325 Fri Mar 03 16:07:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
327 * Changed the new "plussed_user" option to mts.conf's
328 "masquerade:" to "username_extension" after getting feedback from
329 qmail users, who use '-' as a separator rather than '+'. Removed
330 checking of $USERPLUS variable. Now check $USERNAME_EXTENSION,
331 which needs to include the appropriate separator for your MTA
332 ('-', '+', or whatever) as its first character.
334 Thu Mar 02 23:04:30 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
336 * Added a new "boolean" type to mh.h and TRUE and FALSE constants.
338 * Added a note to DIFFERENCES stating that it's out-of-date
339 (Richard was the last one to update it) and that we should
340 consider only documenting incompatibilities with MH there.
342 * Implemented (and documented) a third kind of username
343 masquerading: "plussed user" masquerading. This one was suggested
344 by Neil Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>. It's based on sendmail's
345 "plussed user" feature, where mail sent to <user>+<string> will be
346 delivered to <user>. When it's enabled, it's controlled by the
347 $USERPLUS environment variable. How is it enabled? Well, that
350 * Renamed the "mmailid:" setting in mts.conf to "masquerade:", and
351 changed it so that rather than being a boolean, it can be set to
352 any combination of the three values "draft_from", "mmailid", and
353 "plussed_user". Thus it is now possible to enable the three types
354 of masquerading individually.
356 * Fixed a bug with "mmailid" masquerading (dating back to MH?)
357 where if it was turned on, ','s would no longer be considered
358 GECOS field delimiters.
360 Wed Mar 01 23:30:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
362 * Changed the GECOS-field '&' translation behavior to be
363 controlled by the BSD42 #define rather than GCOS_HACK, since it's
364 apparently always appropriate on OSes where BSD42 is #defined, and
365 never appropriate on any other OSes. Thanks to Kimmo Suominen for
366 responding to my "What is this code here for?" comment in mts.c
367 and explaining the feature.
369 Mon Feb 28 21:50:29 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
371 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3+dev (ideally this should be
372 done by whoever makes a release tar file, immediately after doing
375 * Applied Paul Fox <pgf-spam@foxharp.boston.ma.us>'s scansbr.c
376 patch, posted to comp.mail.mh, which he says prevents loss of mail
377 when inc'ing into a full filesystem.
379 * Changed "echo > stamp-h.in" in Makefile.in to "date > stamp-h.in"
380 so that stamp-h.in will be different each time configure.in and
381 related files are changed, making it easier to check it in (which
382 is necessary to prevent unnecessary autoconf calls).
384 * My declaration of initgroups() in slocal.c to eliminate the "no
385 prototype" warning wasn't portable (FreeBSD 3.[23] choked). Now
386 use AC_EGREP_HEADER to see where initgroups() is declared, if
389 Sun Feb 20 12:17:15 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
391 * Fix security hole in mhshowsbr.c which allowed untrusted shell
394 * Released nmh 1.0.3.
396 Thu Feb 10 10:54:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
398 * Oops. %-escapes on mhstore lines in mhn.defaults.sh should not
399 be surrounded by single quotes, as a shell is not spawned when
400 just saving files, and the filenames will end up with literal
401 quotes embedded in them.
403 Fri Feb 04 12:29:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
405 * Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
406 got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
407 the -help output. One theory is that they were making reference
408 to the fact that clearly you know about the -help option since
409 you're currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea
410 to overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
411 supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
414 The other theory is that because you can say something like
415 "mhstore -" and get "mhstore: - ambiguous. It matches" followed
416 by the same list of switches you get with -help, they were saying
417 you can "sorta" abbreviate "-help" as "-". You don't get the
418 "Usage:" string, though, so it's not really the same thing.
420 Thu Feb 03 17:52:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
422 * Applied wesley.craig@umich.edu's KPOP patches. According to him:
424 The following patch fixes a problem with requesting a
425 service key for a machine that has multiple 'A' records. It
426 also makes "-kpop" a command line option, for users who
427 would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".
429 Did no testing of the new features, as I don't have access to a
432 * Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
434 * Modified INSTALL and config.h.in to reflect the new -kpop feature.
436 Fri Jan 28 17:39:24 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
438 * All %-escapes in mhn.defaults that actually expand to something
439 should be surrounded by single quotes. Added quotes to the ones
440 in mhn.defaults.sh that were missing them.
442 * Added check for lynx to write mhshow-show-text/html line in
445 Thu Jan 27 12:22:25 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
447 * makedir() had multiple bugs dating back to MH. An octal
448 constant was apparently being interpreted as decimal, resulting in
449 directories with no user read or execute permissions, making
450 nested directory creation fail. And there wasn't even an
451 _attempt_ to set desired permissions (e.g. from "Folder-Protect:"
452 in .mh_profile) on the outer directories of a nested directory.
454 * A second `make install' would always fail because the check for
455 whether mh_profile.5 existed was written incorrectly.
457 Wed Jan 26 02:22:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
459 * Added documentation on both types of masquerading to post's man
462 Tue Jan 25 22:58:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
464 * Doug's portability fix of my setgid inc autodetection had a
465 caching bug -- if you re-ran configure, uip/Makefile would be
466 corrupted, and installation would bomb out on OSes where inc needs
469 * Implemented a new kind of email address masquerading. Usually,
470 when a user writes a custom "From:" header in a draft, nmh uses it
471 rather than generating one. However, the user's true address is
472 used in the SMTP envelope "From:" and is revealed in the "Sender:"
473 header. Now, when mmailid is set to non-zero, the envelope
474 "From:" uses the address specified in the draft "From:" header,
475 and there is no "Sender:" header. This is useful when sending on
476 behalf of a remote POP3 account or when remote mail robots
477 incorrectly use the envelope "From:" in preference to the body
478 "From:". This processing has only been implemented for post, not
479 for the undocumented spost (which was already missing some "From:"
480 processing that post has).
482 Mon Jan 24 22:26:06 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
484 * Got rid of the rest of the gcc -Wall warnings that I didn't have
485 time for on 1999-07-15 (and, it would seem, some new ones people
486 introduced since then). The primary ones were the warnings that
487 default prototypes were being used for [v]snprintf() and
488 str[n]casecmp(). As of right now, there are _no_ compilation
489 warnings except on dtimep.c-lexed (at least under AIX 4.1.5 and
492 Sun Jan 2 23:42:18 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
494 * Move mhtest from bindir to libdir.
496 * Move sendfiles from libdir to bindir.
498 * Updated sendfiles manpage to reflect this change.
500 * Added documentation for -build and -file switches to repl and
501 forw manpages (patch from Peter Maydell).
503 * Fixed interaction between specifying -cc in profile and -group on
506 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
508 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
509 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
510 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
513 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
515 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
516 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
517 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
518 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
519 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
520 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).
522 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
524 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
526 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
528 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
529 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
530 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
531 caught again. This works for now.
533 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
535 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
537 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
538 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
540 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
542 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
543 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
545 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
547 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
549 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
551 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
552 changes. Both need more cleanup.
554 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
556 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
557 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
558 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
559 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
560 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
563 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
565 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
566 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
567 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
569 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
570 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
573 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
575 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
576 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
577 to a directory on another device with more free space.
579 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
581 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
582 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
584 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
586 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
589 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
590 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
592 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
593 macros, regardless of platform.
595 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
596 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
598 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
599 with x-conversions=gzip.
601 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
603 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
606 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
607 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
608 implicit definition of ioctl().
610 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
611 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
612 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
613 want to mess with them.
615 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
617 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
618 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
620 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
621 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
623 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
624 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
625 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
627 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
628 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
629 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
631 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
634 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
637 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
638 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
641 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
642 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
645 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
646 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
650 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
652 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
653 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
654 preventing compilation on at least linux.
656 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
657 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
659 Thu Sep 09 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
661 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
663 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
664 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
665 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
666 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
668 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
669 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
671 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
673 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
675 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
677 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
678 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
680 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
682 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
683 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
685 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
686 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
687 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
688 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
690 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
691 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
693 Sat Jun 09 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
695 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
696 substitute it for mktemp if available.
698 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
700 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
701 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
704 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
706 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
708 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
710 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
711 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
713 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
714 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
715 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
717 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
718 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
719 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
721 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
722 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
723 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
725 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
726 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
729 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
730 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
732 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
733 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
735 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
738 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
739 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
740 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
742 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
743 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
745 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
746 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
747 <elleron@servtech.com>.
749 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
750 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
753 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
754 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
756 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
757 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
758 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
759 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
761 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
762 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
764 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
768 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
769 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
770 would not be changed.
772 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
773 one from the Apache web server.
775 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
776 (this should have been done a long time ago).
778 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
779 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
780 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
782 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
784 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
786 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
787 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
790 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
791 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
792 removes a bad race condition.
794 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
797 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
798 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
799 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
801 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
802 sequence information.
804 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
805 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
807 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
810 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
813 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
815 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
816 interpret 034 as octal.
818 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
820 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
821 mhstore, and mhbuild.
823 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
824 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
826 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
827 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
829 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
830 in the c_cefile structure when building.
832 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
833 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
835 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
836 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
837 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
839 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
840 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
841 and mhshow. Updated man pages
843 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
845 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
847 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
848 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
851 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
853 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
854 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
856 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
857 header field information.
859 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
860 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
862 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
863 values when parsing a content.
865 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
866 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
868 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
869 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
871 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
872 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
874 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
875 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
877 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
879 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
881 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
883 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
885 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
886 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
889 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
890 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
892 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
893 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
894 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
895 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
896 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
897 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
900 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
902 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
903 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
904 buffer length checks for this parameter.
906 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
907 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
909 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
911 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
912 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
913 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
914 of the limits on the length of command lines.
916 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
917 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
920 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
921 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
922 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
923 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
926 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
930 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
931 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
933 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
934 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
935 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
936 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
939 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
940 mhbuild returns an error.
942 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
943 rename the draft file.
945 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
946 use a global variable.
948 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
949 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
951 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
952 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
954 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
955 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
956 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
958 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
959 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
961 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
962 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
965 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
966 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
969 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
970 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
972 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
973 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
974 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
976 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
977 to new function output_content_folder.
979 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
980 new function output_content_file.
982 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
983 to new function parse_format_string.
985 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
986 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
987 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
988 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
990 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
991 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
992 message/external file from ftp.
994 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
995 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
996 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
998 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
999 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
1002 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
1005 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
1006 new file mhstoresbr.c
1008 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
1011 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
1012 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
1014 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
1015 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
1017 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
1018 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
1019 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
1021 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
1023 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
1025 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
1026 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
1029 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
1030 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
1032 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
1035 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
1037 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1039 * Released nmh-0.26.
1041 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
1042 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
1043 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
1044 is still the same (dashstuffing).
1046 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
1047 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
1048 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
1049 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
1050 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
1052 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
1053 But it is not on by default.
1055 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
1056 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
1058 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
1060 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
1062 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
1064 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
1066 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
1067 number of the "cur" message when packing.
1069 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1071 * Released nmh-0.25.
1073 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
1074 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
1075 uses the original name of the library.
1077 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
1078 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
1081 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
1082 list_content and list_debug.
1084 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
1086 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
1087 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.
1089 1998-02-27 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1091 * Released nmh-0.24.
1093 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
1095 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
1096 are given, that order doesn't matter.
1098 * Fix bug in seq_list.c when realloc'ing for
1099 large sequence line.
1101 1998-02-23 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1103 * Released nmh-0.23.
1105 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
1107 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
1108 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan
1109 content, decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary
1110 string). I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
1112 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
1113 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
1116 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
1118 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
1120 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
1122 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
1123 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
1125 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
1126 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.
1128 * Add note to MACHINES file that on Linux, configure
1129 doesn't find the functions sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
1131 * Fix configuration for machines that don't have (or find)
1132 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
1134 1998-02-11 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1136 * Released nmh-0.22.
1138 * Add a configure check for sigsetjmp. Add some conditional
1139 #define's in h/signals.h in case it's not found.
1141 * Added additional notes about -auto switch in mhn man page.
1143 * Added note about MM_CHARSET environment variable to
1144 mh-profile(5) man page.
1146 * Fix signal problem in mhn.c (change setjmp/longjmp to
1147 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp).
1149 1998-02-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1151 * Released nmh-0.22-pre1.
1153 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
1154 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
1156 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
1158 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
1159 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
1160 entry point for parsing MIME files.
1162 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
1163 source message on the standard input.
1165 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
1167 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
1168 rather than -rfc934mode.
1170 * Fix mhbuild, so that Content-Description and RFC-822 comments
1171 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
1174 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
1175 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).
1177 * Restore HP specific code to zotnet/tws/lexstring.c. Apparently
1180 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1182 * Released nmh-0.21.
1184 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
1185 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.
1187 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what transfer
1190 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what character set
1191 to use for text contents.
1193 * Removed old hpux specific code from zotnet/tws/lexstring.c
1195 1998-02-02 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1197 * Released nmh-0.21-pre2.
1199 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
1201 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
1202 header fields as per RFC-2047.
1204 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
1205 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
1206 spaces between encoded word are.
1208 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
1210 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
1211 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
1213 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
1214 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
1215 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
1217 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
1219 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
1220 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
1222 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.
1224 * Added support for %(decode) to fmtdump.c.
1226 * check_charset() now accepts US-ASCII as a subset of any
1227 ISO-8859-X character set.
1229 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
1232 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
1233 permissions, not write permissions.
1235 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
1236 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
1238 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
1241 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1243 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
1245 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
1246 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
1248 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
1249 message contains valid character set.
1251 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
1252 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
1254 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
1255 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
1257 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
1258 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
1259 between an encoded word and normal text.
1261 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
1262 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
1264 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
1265 as a RFC-2047 header field.
1267 * The command install-mh now recognizes the switches -version
1270 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
1271 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
1274 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
1275 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
1277 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
1278 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
1280 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
1282 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1284 * Released nmh-0.20.
1286 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
1288 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.
1290 * Changed the default format file for mhl (mhl.format) to
1291 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
1292 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
1294 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
1295 and the To: line was missing.
1297 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
1299 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1301 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
1303 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
1304 watch the POP transaction.
1306 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
1307 first, and use it if available.
1309 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
1310 first, and use it if available.
1312 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1314 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
1316 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
1317 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
1318 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
1321 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
1322 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
1323 returns the state FLDPLUS.
1325 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
1326 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
1329 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
1331 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
1332 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
1334 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
1336 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
1337 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
1339 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
1340 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
1341 message to which you are replying.
1343 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
1344 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
1345 making group replies.
1347 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
1349 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1351 * Released nmh-0.19.
1353 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
1354 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
1356 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
1357 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
1358 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
1359 to the end of the man page.
1361 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
1362 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
1363 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
1364 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
1365 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
1366 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
1368 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
1371 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
1372 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
1373 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
1375 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
1376 the next available number above the message number you wish
1379 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
1380 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
1382 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
1383 file sbr/seq_print.c
1385 * flist will now update the current folder.
1387 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
1388 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
1389 but now undocumented.
1391 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
1394 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
1395 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
1397 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
1399 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
1400 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
1402 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1404 * Released nmh-0.18.
1406 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
1407 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
1408 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
1410 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
1411 retains the public/private status of sequences.
1413 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
1414 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
1415 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
1416 previous public/private status.
1418 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
1421 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
1424 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
1425 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
1426 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
1428 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
1429 take option to determine whether it should get current
1430 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
1431 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
1433 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
1435 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
1436 wait for stopped processes.
1438 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
1439 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
1441 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1443 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
1445 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
1446 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
1448 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
1449 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
1451 * Change the way that memory for message status is
1452 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
1453 the folder/message structure. This required changing
1454 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
1456 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
1459 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
1462 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
1464 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
1465 the debugging output.
1467 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
1468 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
1470 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1472 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
1474 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
1475 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
1477 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
1479 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
1480 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
1481 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
1482 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
1483 in the given sequence.
1485 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
1486 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
1487 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
1488 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
1489 subdirectories of a given directory.
1491 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
1492 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
1493 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
1495 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
1496 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
1498 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
1500 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
1503 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
1504 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
1505 fields are now calculated at runtime.
1507 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
1508 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
1509 are calculated at runtime.
1511 Sun Nov 30 19:14:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1513 * Released nmh-0.18-pre2.
1515 * Add paragraph to man page for install-mh and to INSTALL file
1516 about checking for global mh.profile.
1518 * Renamed m_find() to context_find().
1519 Renamed m_replace() to context_replace().
1520 Renamed m_delete() to context_del().
1521 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
1522 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
1523 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
1525 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
1526 adding message to folder itself.
1528 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
1529 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
1530 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
1533 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
1534 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
1537 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
1538 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
1539 is the same as the direct smtp code).
1541 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
1542 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
1544 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
1545 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
1546 code to use it yet).
1548 Thu Nov 13 18:42:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1550 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.
1552 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never
1553 called with a value larger than 30 mintues.
1555 * Fixed race condition in rmm and refile, so that
1556 context is updated before external rmmproc is called.
1558 * Removed all the OVERHEAD code.
1560 * Move code to add message to folder from refile.c
1563 Fri Jul 25 19:39:29 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1565 * Did some rearranging of the internals of inc.c.
1567 * Make -inplace the default for anno, forw, dist, and repl.
1569 * Changed --enable-smtp to --with-mts={smtp,sendmail}
1571 * Created new directory mts/sendmail for direct sendmail
1572 interface (although it currently still uses SMTP).
1574 * Removed all the TMA (trusted mail agent) code
1576 * Removed all the TTYD (terminal access daemon) code
1578 * Removed all the MF (uucp filtering) code.
1580 * Removed all the code for BERK.
1582 * Removed all the code for stand-alone delivery (MHMTS).
1584 * Split the file mts/sendmail/smail.c into sendmail.c and
1585 smtp.c. Changed the name of the directory to mts/smtp.
1587 * Changed autoconf to use @sysconfdir@ for location of
1588 configuration files.
1590 * Changed #define in mhn.c from FTP to BUILTIN_FTP.
1592 Mon Jul 21 03:22:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1594 * Released nmh-0.17.
1596 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
1598 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
1599 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
1601 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
1604 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
1605 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
1607 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
1608 number of refiled message.
1610 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
1612 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
1613 for return value of wait().
1615 * Change configure to also check /bin for "more".
1617 Sat Jul 12 00:02:23 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1619 * Released nmh-0.16.
1621 Mon Jun 23 20:13:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1623 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
1625 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
1626 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
1627 deal with binary messages, yet).
1629 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
1631 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
1633 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
1634 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
1635 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
1636 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
1637 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
1638 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
1640 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
1641 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
1643 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
1644 From MH-6.8.4 patch.
1646 * Fix double free of ctinfo in user_content when using
1647 #forw with single message. From John MacMillan (and
1650 * Changed -mhnproc switch for show, to -showmimeproc.
1652 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".
1654 * Added "mime" option to "whatnow", which calls the program
1655 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
1658 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
1661 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
1663 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
1664 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
1665 which used unsigned chars by default.
1667 Sat Jun 21 01:21:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1669 * Released nmh-0.15.
1671 * Added new form "scan.unseen" to distribution. It marks messages

1674 * Do some rearranging of date/time code in zotnet/tws/dtime.c
1676 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
1678 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
1681 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
1682 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
1683 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
1685 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
1686 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
1688 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
1690 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
1691 they conflict with defines on AIX.
1693 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
1694 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
1695 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
1696 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
1698 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
1699 and put in own subroutine.
1701 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
1702 and put in own subroutine.
1704 * Moved code to remove messages from folder into own
1705 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and
1706 refile.c to use new routine.
1708 Fri May 16 06:09:31 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1710 * Renamed m_seqok to seq_nameok.
1712 * Changed m_setunseen, msh, mshcmds, flist, and scan to use
1715 * Changed m_seqflag to return the number of a sequence rather
1716 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
1717 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
1719 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
1722 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before
1723 adding message to sequence.
1725 * Renamed function m_setvis to m_setunseen, and renamed
1726 corresponding file in sbr.
1728 * Renamed function m_setseq to m_setprev, and renamed corresponding
1731 * Changed mark.c and pick.c to use m_seqaddsel and m_seqdelsel.
1733 * Added new function m_seqdelsel to m_seqdel.c, which deletes
1734 all selected messages from a sequence.
1736 * Added new function m_seqaddsel to m_seqadd.c, which adds all
1737 selected messages to a sequence.
1739 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,
1742 Thu May 15 00:53:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1744 * Renamed function pack_folder to m_packfolder, and moved it
1745 from uip/folder.c into its own file sbr/m_packfolder.c
1747 Wed May 14 23:38:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1749 * Changed function m_gmsg to m_readfolder. Renamed file
1750 sbr/m_gmsg.c to sbr/m_readfolder.c.
1752 Mon May 5 19:57:11 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1754 * Expanded rcvtty man page, and added small patch from
1755 MH-6.8.4 distribution.

1759 * Released nmh-0.14.
1761 * Comment out configure test and code for tgetent to allocate its
1762 own termcap buffer when passed a NULL argument.
1764 Sat Apr 26 03:46:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1766 * Added new options `-checkmime', `-nocheckmime', and `-mhnproc'
1767 to show. Restructured code to handle options to various
1768 `procs' better. Deprecated `-noshowproc' option and NOMHNPROC
1769 environment variable.
1771 * Added new man page `mh-draft' which documents the
1772 draft folder facility in nmh.
1774 * Renamed fmtsbr.h to fmt_scan.h. Renamed fmtcompile.h
1777 * split fmtsbr.c into fmt_scan.c and fmt_new.c. Renamed

1781 * `send -help' wasn't showing the -(no)mime and -split
1784 Fri Apr 25 02:50:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1786 * Released nmh-0.13.
1788 * Changed mhpath so it doesn't abort if a message sequence
1789 such as "mhpath all" expands to more than 1000 messages.
1790 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
1791 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
1794 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
1795 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
1797 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1799 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if
1800 necessary. So `folders' can now handle more than 300 folders.
1802 Tue Apr 22 14:01:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1804 * Change configure to use a compile check to see if the tm struct

1833 will suppress the display of the message header.
1835 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
1837 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c

1840 * Add mhnproc to the list of `procs' in mh-profile.man.
1842 * Add configure test for lorder and tsort commands.
1844 * Commented out the padding in the `msgs` struct in h/mh.h

1847 500 elements at a time (rather than MAXFOLDERS / 5).
1849 * Add note to man page for mhmail that zero length messages are
1850 not sent. Need to use -body "" to send empty messages.
1852 * zotnet/mts/mts.c : compare character with '\0', not NULL.
1854 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
1856 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
1857 folder/message structure when done with folder.
1859 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is
1860 defined even if message is missing "From " line.
1862 Mon Mar 31 03:37:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1864 * Released nmh-0.10.

1871 Thu Mar 20 03:21:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1873 * Reversed previous decision to retain "From " lines in slocal.
1874 The "From " line is now removed from all messages.
1876 * inc now saves the date from the "From " envelope in the
1877 Delivery-Date header for all messages.
1879 * sbr/m_getfld.c: Clean up processing of Return-Path and

1882 Mon Mar 17 19:03:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1884 * client.c: cast iaddr to int before comparing return value
1885 of inet_addr with NOTOK.
1887 Tue Mar 11 04:38:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1889 * Grep test for signal names was failing on some OS'es because
1890 of missing tabs in regex.

1919 * rcvtty.c : Changed to use #define UTMP_FILE (if exists) rather
1920 than hard coded "/etc/utmp".
1922 * Released nmh-0.08.
1924 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
1925 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of
1926 locking database itself.
1928 Thu Feb 27 05:28:09 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1930 * Added slocal action `mmdf' to deliver to a file in mmdf format.
1932 * Changed the slocal actions `file' and `>' to always deliver in
1933 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
1936 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
1937 rather than mmdf format.
1939 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
1940 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
1941 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
1942 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
1944 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
1946 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1948 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
1951 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
1952 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
1953 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
1955 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
1956 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
1957 rcvpack so you can choose the preferred format.
1959 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1961 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
1962 can still easily change this in config.h).
1964 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
1965 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
1966 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
1968 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1970 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather
1971 than tzset and external timezone variable.

1982 Tue Feb 11 01:29:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1984 * Add check to configure, so that if ruserpass, or _ruserpass
1985 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
1987 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
1988 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
1991 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
1992 built-in FTP client in mhn.

2005 * Released nmh-0.06.
2007 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
2008 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
2010 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
2011 many such machines around anymore.
2013 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
2014 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
2016 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
2017 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
2019 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2021 * Check lex generated file in zotnet/tws and use
2022 pre-generated version if necessary.
2024 * Released nmh-0.05.
2026 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
2027 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
2028 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
2029 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
2031 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
2032 be linked in one pass.
2034 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2036 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
2037 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
2039 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2041 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
2043 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2045 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
2046 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
2047 become the current folder.
2049 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2051 * Released nmh-0.04.
2053 * Define ospeed and PC in termsbr.c is OS doesn't have
2056 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2058 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
2059 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
2060 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
2062 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2064 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
2065 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
2067 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2069 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
2070 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
2073 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
2074 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
2076 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2078 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
2079 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
2080 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
2081 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
2082 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
2083 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
2085 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2087 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
2088 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
2090 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
2091 a file (currently need to specify full path).
2093 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2095 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
2096 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
2098 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2100 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
2101 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
2102 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
2104 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2106 * Released nmh-0.03.
2108 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
2109 .mh_sequence file existed.
2111 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
2112 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
2114 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
2115 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
2118 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2120 * Changed flist option -unseen to -[no]all. Cleaned up
2123 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2125 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
2126 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
2127 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
2129 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2131 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
2132 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
2133 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
2135 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2137 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL
2138 and allocate its own buffer. Borrowed from zsh.
2140 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
2142 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2144 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
2145 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
2146 directory from where the source code is located.
2148 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2150 * Released nmh-0.02.
2152 Wed Jan 1 17:41:52 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

2157 Tue Dec 31 03:07:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2159 * Changed code to use strerror, rather than using sys_errlist
2160 and sys_nerr directly.

2164 * -compat switch from install-mh removed.
2166 * Changed the default POP port from "pop" to "pop3".
2168 Sat Dec 28 13:25:05 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2170 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
2171 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
2172 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
2173 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
2174 rather than in script.
2176 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2178 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
2180 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with
2181 macro defined on Solaris.
2183 Thu Dec 26 02:50:15 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2185 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
2186 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
2188 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
2189 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
2190 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
2191 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
2194 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2196 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
2197 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.
2199 * Fixed configure test so that termcap variable ospeed is
2202 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2204 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
2206 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included
2207 in mhn.c. Changed md5 to use memset and memcpy.
2209 Fri Dec 20 02:29:37 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2211 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
2212 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
2214 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2216 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
2217 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
2218 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
2219 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
2220 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
2221 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
2223 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2225 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
2227 * Released nmh-0.01.
2229 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
2230 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
2231 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
2234 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2236 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
2239 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2241 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
2242 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
2244 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2246 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
2247 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
2248 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
2249 script to find_program.
2251 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2253 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
2254 speed up -recurse option.
2256 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
2257 yet, but it compiles :-)
2259 * Changed default location for install to
2260 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
2261 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
2262 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
2265 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
2266 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
2267 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
