1 2006-02-12 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
3 * docs/TODO: added RFC2183 to reference of RFC1806 for
4 Content-Disposition header.
6 2006-01-17 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
8 * uip/mhbuild.c, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, man/mhbuild.man: added
9 -nocontentid switch, to disable generation of Content-ID:
10 header in MIME messages. (Also added -contentid for
11 symmetry.) The default configuration of Microsoft Outlook,
12 Build 10.0.3416, in particular, doesn't see attachments in
13 incoming messages if there are Content-ID headers, see
14 http://home.cwru.edu/~wrv/eudoraoutlookfix.html. This allows
15 users to easily accomodate that by adding
16 mhbuild: -nocontentid to their .mh_profile.
18 2006-01-29 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
20 * bug 4360: uip/replsbr.c: remove trailing newlines from components
21 to fix bug with spaces at the end of Subject/References in replies
23 2006-01-18 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
25 * configure.in: use AS_HELP_STRING for formatting help messages
27 * configure.in, sbr/fmt_scan.c: add autoconf magic to support
28 old systems that don't support multibyte character sets
30 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: fix bug with insertion of newline being wrong if
31 the num function was used at the end of the format buffer
33 2006-01-17 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
35 * uip/post.c, uip/spost.c: in make_bcc_file (), use same
36 logic as in finish_headers () to detect whether there is an
37 existing From: line in the draft. If draft_from masquerade
38 flag is enabled, this allows the From: to be obeyed in the
39 Bcc, instead of the old behavior of always replacing it with
42 2006-01-17 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
44 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: more robust multi-byte/column support for field
45 widths, restoring right justification feature
47 2006-01-16 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
49 * h/aliasbr.h, h/rcvmail.h, man/Makefile.in, man/slocal.man,
50 sbr/lock_file.c, uip/aliasbr.c, uip/dropsbr.c, uip/post.c,
51 uip/slocal.c, man/mh-mts.man: remove remnants of code for MMDF
53 * uip/scansbr.c: multiply buffer size by MB_CUR_MAX so multi-byte
56 2006-01-14 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
58 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: Turn the PUTSF macro into a function capable of
59 handling multi column characters.
61 2006-01-07 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
63 * Remove sbr/strerror.c -- strerror(3) is defined in C89.
65 2006-01-06 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
67 * patch #3968: Move the add() function from its own file (add.c) and
68 into utils.c. There was also a duplicate add() function in mf.c which
71 2006-01-02 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
73 * Remove sbr/pwd.c file, moving the pwd() function into sbr/utils.c.
75 2006-01-01 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
77 * patch #3967: Create a mh_xrealloc function to prevent mistakes when
80 2006-01-01 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
82 * patch #3966: Create a mh_xmalloc function to prevent mistakes when
85 2005-12-24 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
87 * Bug #15285: Don't use $< in target rules in makefiles, as POSIX
88 says it's only defined in inference rules. (BSD make was expanding
89 $< to the empty string in the rule for building sbr/dtimep.c, which
90 causes lex to apparently hang because it's reading from stdin.)
92 2005-12-24 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
94 * Completely redo db library checking -- we now check for working
95 (include file, library) pairs rather than checking for headers and
96 libraries separately. We also now provide --with-ndbm=lib and
97 --with-ndbmheader=header options to configure to handle situations
98 where configure's autodetection fails.
100 2005-12-21 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
102 * Fix stupid accidental dependence on a bash quirk in previous
103 configure script change.
105 2005-12-15 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
107 * Improve checking for Berkeley db libraries: configure should now
108 find a suitable library on systems with new gdbm where
109 compatibility functions are in the gdbm_compat library, and on
112 2005-12-13 Michael Forrest <mef@computer.org>
114 * Fedora Bug #163760: sbr/context_read.c (context_read): Ensure that
115 the context is only read once.
117 2005-12-12 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
119 * uip/sendsbr.c (annoaux): Fix the call to annotate() fixing a bug
120 which prevented repl from properly annotating messages.
122 2005-12-07 Jon Steinhart <nmh@fourwinds.com>
124 * Fixed a bug where anno -append put the headers in the wrong place
125 if applied to a message that didn't contain any headers.
127 * Added a special value of "all" to the -number option that causes
128 anno -delete to delete all matching components instead of just
131 * Added new -preserve and -nopreserve options. Using -preserve
132 retains the original last accessed and last modified times on
135 2005-12-05 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
137 * Fedora Bug #174983: configure.in: Fix the AC_PATH_PROG default when
138 vi isn't found during build.
140 2005-11-19 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
142 * bug #14977: sbr/context_read.c: special case an MHCONTEXT of
143 "/dev/null" and don't try to lock it.
145 * bug #9228, debian bug #146449: man/mh-profile.man: make it clearer
146 that lower case environment variables (and in particular mheditor)
147 are internal to nmh and not intended to be set by the user.
149 2005-11-09 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
151 * sbr/mf.c: fix buffer overrun with absurdly long addresses
152 (only causes crashes if scan is run with '-width 16536' or similar)
154 * bug #7917: sbr/context_foil.c, sbr/context_read.c,
155 sbr/context_save.c: mark 'no context' with NULL rather than
156 "/dev/null" so we don't inadvertently try to lock /dev/null (which
157 takes up to a minute in some locking configurations and makes post
160 * patch #3913: uip/post.c: pass some globals into sm_init() so that
161 it uses SASL if necessary. (This bug was preventing Bcc'd emails
162 from being sent via SASL authenticated SMTP.)
164 * bug #9813: uip/rmf.c: don't crash if there's no Current-Folder
165 entry in the context file.
167 2005-11-13 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
169 * bug #7833: uip/Makefile.in: remove link to install-mh that caused
170 problems on some systems
172 * bug #739: Makefile.in: install target now depends on all to avoid
173 problem on case-insensitive file systems with the INSTALL file
175 2005-11-10 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
177 * Fedora Bug #172838: configure.in: Fix the AC_PATH_PROG default when
178 sendmail isn't found during build.
180 2005-11-09 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
182 * h/aliasbr.h: fix a non-ANSI prototype.
184 2005-11-08 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
186 * Simon Burge: acconfig.h, configure.in, uip/rcvtty.c, uip/slocal.c:
187 fix to handle getutent() on NetBSD
189 * INSTALL, README, docs/README.about, man/nmh.man: update most
190 references to the web page and mailing list locations
192 * bug #10230: etc/Makefile.in, man/Makefile.in, uip/Makefile.in:
193 Michael De La Rue: prepend DESTDIR to install locations
195 * configure.in, */Makefile.in, mts/smtp/smtp.c: replace obsolete
198 2005-11-06 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
200 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, sbr/fmt_scan.c, h/prototypes.h: fix various
201 possible overruns of the buffers in fmt_scan() which would cause
202 crashes if scan was run with '-width 16536' or similar.
204 * uip/popsbr.c: fix compile error which only showed up if nmh
205 was configured with --enable-apop.
207 * Debian Bug# 245932, RedHat Bug# 172388: uip/mhparse.c: don't
208 crash when handling a multipart MIME message with an invalid
209 Content-Type header (file handle was being fclose()d twice).
211 * sbr/Makefile.in: adjust lex command to work on both old and
212 new versions of flex.
214 * configure.in: add an AC_PREREQ() so autoconf 2.13 gives a helpful
215 error message and the Debian autoconf-version-guessing wrapper
216 doesn't guess wrongly.
218 2005-11-02 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
220 * Debian Bug# 320069: Nick Rusnov: uip/popsbr.c: fail when
221 kpop connection attempted without KPOP support compiled in
223 * Debian Bug# 320090: Nick Rusnov: sbr/Makefile.in: fix for newer
224 version of flex and remove autogenerated file from cvs
226 * patch #1155: uip/flist.c: speed up flist by skipping stat on
227 files with numbers as names
229 * docs/Makefile.in: include new files in distribution
231 2005-10-11 Bill Wohler <wohler@newt.com>
233 * docs/FAQ: fold questions into MH FAQ and distribute that instead
235 2005-10-05 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
237 * Harald Geyer: h/mh.h, uip/replsbr.c: back out previous change
238 (fork/vfork) and replace with code that handles the issue directly
240 2005-05-18 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
242 * Debian Bug# 143485: Nick Rusnov: h/mh.h: use fork instead of
245 * Debian Bug# 261592: Harald Geyer: uip/mhlsbr.c, uip/replsbr.c:
246 test/report error writing to stdout
248 * mts/smtp/smtp.c, uip/popsbr.c: correct SASL include file locations
250 * docs/COMPLETION-BASH: bash completion definitions from Debian
252 * patch #2863: savannah@brisammon.fastmail.fm: sbr/folder_read.c:
253 fix a bug affecting AFS where nmh was setting the READONLY flag
254 for a folder even when you do have write access to the folder
256 * Carl Mummert: h/fmt_compile.h, man/mh-format.man,
257 sbr/fmt_compile.c, sbr/fmt_scan.c: add unquote() function for
258 removing quotes from RFC-2822 encoded headers
260 2005-02-23 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
262 * use iconv to convert RFC-2047 encoded headers to the
263 character set used by the current locale
265 * sbr/folder_read.c fix Debian bug #202667: crash when a
266 message's filename overflows an int when converted
268 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
269 versions (from automake 1.9.5)
271 2005-02-21 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
273 * sbr/getpass.c fix bug where inc crashed on failing to reopen
276 2005-01-27 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
278 * Added -proxy option to inc and msgchk. Based on old patch
279 from Michael Richardson.
281 * On systems where it is available, use nl_langinfo to get the
282 character set if MM_CHARSET is unset
284 2005-01-21 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
286 * sbr/check_charset.c US-ASCII is a subset of UTF-8 so can be
287 handled directly when UTF-8 is being used
289 2004-12-17 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
291 * uip/mhmisc.c Fix -part option to mhshow/mhlist/mhstore to
292 find sub-parts of the specified part
294 2004-11-19 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
296 * h/prototypes.h, sbr/folder_addmsg.c, uip/mhstoresbr.c,
297 uip/rcvstore.c, uip/refile.c: Added mail directory argument to
298 folder_addmsg in order to make it possible to provide a path to
299 the ext_hook call that is mailpath-based. A problem existed when
300 a folder was a symbolic link and the pwd call would return the
301 path relative to the filesystem, not to mailpath. A new argument
302 was needed because there was otherwise no reasonable way to get
305 2004-11-16 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
307 * sbr/folder_pack.c: Fixed problem where the refile hook was being
308 called after a message was renamed so that it wasn't around for
309 the hook. The hook is now called before the message file is
312 * sbr/folder_addmsg.c: Fixed wrong directory for hook when
313 refiling with -src option.
315 2004-10-15 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
317 * uip/sortm.c: Fixed calling of external hooks.
319 2004-10-12 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
321 * uip/inc.c: Fixed another weird bug caused by the static
322 mailpath being overwritten.
324 * uip/sendsbr.c: Fixed bug that caused anno to mangle headers.
326 * sbr/lock_file.c: Fixed strange bug that prevented a lock from
327 ever being obtained if getting it failed the first time. The
328 problem was that the string of XXXXXX that is required by
329 mkstemp() was overwritten the first time through, and so all
330 subsequent times failed because mkstemp() failed. The fix
331 reinitializes the tmp file string.
333 * uip/inc.c: Fixed bug in which the static maildir was overwritted
334 if a format string was read from the profile.
336 * sbr/folder_delmsgs.c: Fixed bug that was producing an incorrect
337 path for the external hook.
339 2003-10-06 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
341 * uip/slocal.c, configure.in: db configuration fix for Debian; yet
342 another location for ndbm.
344 2003-09-30 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
346 * Fix 'pick' so handling of options "-list" and "-seq" are
348 * Fix 'inc' realloc error when bringing in more than 100 msgs
350 * Patches submitted by Nick Rusnov from Debian archive applied:
353 136976 - Handle binary content messages
354 143427 - mh-format.man typo
355 144098 - 'spost; should have same behavior as 'post'
356 w.r.t. mts.conf masquerade line
357 149745 - slocal ignores 'N' result of previous command
358 152728 - increase SMTP timeouts to conform to RFC 1123
359 The timeouts suggested by the RFC seem long
360 to me - but the RFC is still listed as active.
361 181867 - typo for nmh.man
363 2003-08-10 Jeffrey C Honig <jch@honig.net>
365 * Fix problem where parsing of address/date fields in fmt_compile
366 is optimized to the first instance. The first instance may be in
367 contitional code which will result in cached data to
368 be used. Instead, convert c_flags to a flags field from a boolean
369 and parse on the first use.
370 * Remove some unused flag bits.
372 Fri Jul 01 22:02:00 2003 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
374 * Applied fixes for configuration problems with Solaris and
375 systems with gdbm instead of db1 (includes bug #2024)
377 #578 - repl leaks umask
378 #1393 - sortm core dumps
379 #1650 - msh leaks file descriptors
380 #1730 - Double free() in mhfree.c:free_encoding()
381 #3356 - In-Reply-To header in default replcomps should be
383 * Revised man page for mh-format (bug #2031)
384 * New replcomps, etc, with Fcc: +outbox in default versions
386 Sat Mar 17 03:18:15 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
388 * Ken Hornstein's configure.in Cyrus SASL checks were doing
389 `x"$with_cyrus_sasl" != "no"' instead of `... != x"no"'.
391 Tue Mar 06 21:04:27 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
393 * Found some historical information about MH in RFC 808.
394 Supplemented it with info from Jerry Peek's MH book and added it
395 to docs/README.about.
397 Tue Feb 6 20:35:40 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
399 * sbr/dtime.c Use the same Y2K correction code as dtimep.lex
401 * sbr/dtimep.lex Restrict the parser to accept either
402 a numerical timezone offset, or a symbolic one (e.g. EST),
403 but not both (Since "2000 -400 EDT" might cause a double
404 subtraction of 60 minutes if both are parsed. One should be
407 Mon Feb 05 20:22:54 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
409 * -L isn't sufficient for specifying the path of the Cyrus SASL
410 shared library. That'll allow us to link successfully, but on
411 many/most OSes that won't allow us to find libsasl at runtime. On
412 Solaris, we need to specify the library path with -R as well (or
413 else the user will have to use the $LD_LIBRARY_PATH kludge, which
414 is considered harmful). This fix should be extended to other OSes
417 * Print whether we have SASL support in the "nmh configuration"
418 summary configure prints out.
420 * Say in README.developers to use `\date' in case anyone is like
421 me and has `date' aliased in their shell to use a nonstandard (but
422 subjectively more readable) format.
424 Thu Jan 25 21:15:52 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
426 * man/mh-chart.man has updated synposes of
429 Tue Jan 23 20:26:15 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
431 * etc/digestcomps tried to force dates into a
432 19xx when it's not necessary.
434 Fri Jan 19 21:22:08 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
436 * First round of manpage updates finished. They
437 are standardized on -man macros, with minimal
440 * man/tmac.h.in is no longer needed, since the
441 manpages do not depend on them anymore. Note:
442 strict "man" programs that didn't allow ".so"
443 sourcing outside the man tree will now format
444 the man pages correctly.
446 * man/vmh.1 is no longer built, since uip/vmh isn't
448 Tue Jan 9 6:01:22 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
450 * Finished manpages ali-prev
452 * Removed deprecated files from the repository.
453 Specifically, those rooted in zotnet/ and mts/sendmail
454 mts/mmdf. "cvs update -dP" will give a pruned directory
457 * Updated docs/Makefile.in to include README.manpages, and
458 uip/Makefile.in to include popi.c (which isn't being built,
459 though). This allows "make nmhdist" to create an archive that
460 is file-for-file identical to the current cvs repository.
462 Sun Dec 31 20:48:50 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
464 * Create docs/README.manpages, which details
465 the formatting rules I've been using.
469 Sat Dec 30 9:50:13 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
471 * Created a new file "DATE" to hold the date
472 of the most recent nmh release. This date will be
473 used in the manpages.
475 * Updated docs/README.developers to add the step
476 of updating DATE. Also, updated configure to
477 read in the contents of the file as the variable
480 * Started work on updating man pages, with only
481 ali finished so far. Changes: 1) no dependence
482 on an external macro file, 2) uses only
483 -man macros (although I may be mistaken in this),
484 3) syntax in the SYNOPSIS is a little more
485 in line with standard UNIX documentation, such as
486 bold flags and italicized parameters.
488 Sun Dec 24 10:06:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
490 * Updated INSTALL with information about the
491 --with-locking option.
493 * Fixed the Hesiod tests in configure.in. In
494 systems where res_send was in -lresolv, this
495 information was not being communicated to the
496 HESIOD_LIBS var. Now, if res_send is not found
497 in the default libraries, it's assumed to be
498 in -lresolv, and thus -lresolv is appended to
499 HESIOD_LIBS, which will need that to avoid
500 undefined symbols problems.
502 * Fixed the Kerberos tests in configure.in. New
503 versions of Kerberos 5 have renamed -lcrypto
504 to -lk5crypto (circa krb5 1.1 or thereabouts). The
505 new test tries to determine if -lk5crypto exists. If so,
506 this is a new krb5 system. If not, test for -lcrypto
507 and the rest of old krb5. If that fails, look
508 for a genuine krb4 installation.
510 Fri Dec 22 22:08:51 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
512 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in msgchk.man.
513 -snoop was documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
515 Fri Dec 22 23:42:16 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
517 * Made a new ./configure option called
518 "--with-locking" that allows the file
519 locking mechanism to be chosen there instead of
520 requiring a manual edit of config.h.
522 * If the option is not explicitly set, or an
523 invalid option is specified, "dot" locking is
524 chosen. Valid options are "dot", "fcntl",
525 "flock", and "lockf". We need a way to tell
526 the user that these are the valid options, and
527 change the flag "--with-locking" if it's not
530 Fri Dec 22 19:21:29 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
532 * Remove the lex-specific memory hints at the
533 beginning of sbr/dtimep.lex. We've already
534 committed to supporting flex only, since
535 lex does not easily allow us to parse a single
536 string, as well as other problems documented
537 below and on nmh-workers.
539 * Added a switch statement to configure.in to
540 test for Mac OS X. If this is the case, LDFLAGS
541 should not contain "-s" since the linker rejects
544 * Updated MACHINES to include Mac OS X Public Beta,
545 as well as Linux 2.4 running glibc 2.2.
547 Wed Dec 20 16:00:46 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
549 * Marked deprecated directories in docs/README.developers
550 as deprecated, with pointers to the new code location.
551 Eventually these deprecated directories should go away.
553 Tue Dec 19 19:16:37 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
555 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in inc.man. -snoop was
556 documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
558 Thu Dec 14 14:32:09 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
560 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
561 versions on ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/config, dated
562 12-07-00. This should prevent configure from failing
563 on newer operating systems because config.{guess,sub}
564 couldn't correctly identify them.
566 Thu Dec 14 1:30:44 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
568 * Fixed the circular dependency created when I moved
569 zotnet/mts to mts/generic and merged them into libmts.
570 mts/generic/client.c and mts/generic/mts.c are now in sbr/
571 (and thus in libmh), which makes libmh self-contained and
572 not depending on an external archive.
574 * All include statements now look for mts.h in h/. The
575 Makefiles and configure script have been modified so that
576 mts/generic is no longer built.
578 Mon Dec 11 22:08:07 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
580 * When Shantonu made the new libmts.a, he swapped $(MTSLIB) and
581 libmh.a in sbr/Makefile.in so that libmh.a comes first, but this
582 causes the build to fail on Solaris, because libmts.a has to get
583 ruserpass() out of libmh.a. Swapping them back to the way Ken
584 Hornstein's patch (which I applied on Jul 20) put them, with
585 libmh.a correctly coming second. If there are times when libmts.a
586 needs to come second, then it would appear there's a circular
587 dependency and someone (Shantonu?) did an mts merge incorrectly.
589 Fri Sep 8 01:36:23 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
591 * Took out bad time textual time zones like BST and JST.
592 I found them online somewhere, but am not sure if they're
595 Fri Sep 8 00:36:48 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
597 * Moved zotnet/mts to mts/generic. This code reorganization
598 makes the entire zotnet tree deprecated -- bboards is unneeded,
599 mf was was moved to sbr, tws was rewritten and moved to sbr, and
602 * Created a new static library called libmts.a used during
603 compilation which includes the generic mts code and the
604 smtp/sendmail code. This supercedes the functionality of the
605 old libsmtp.a and the remains of libzot.a.
607 * Updated header includes to reference the new location of mts.h
608 in mts/generic/mts.h. Also, update the configure and top-level
609 Makefile not to descend into zotnet. Also, they don't descend
610 into mts/mmdf and mts/sendmail (the sendmail code has been
611 merged into the smtp code).
613 * Added #include <h/nmh.h> to h/md5.h, since my compile was
614 complaining about implicitly-declared memcpy and memset, which
615 appear to be in strings.h. In any event, nmh.h should take care
618 * When doing a "make nmhdist", notice that the generated
619 snapshot does not include zotnet of the mts directories as noted
620 above. Since they are no longer compiled, and I don't see any
621 obvious code path to get to them, end-users should probably
622 not need them. If you think otherwise, turn Makefile generation
623 back on in configure.in and turn on recursion into those dirs
624 in the appropriate Makefile.in
626 Wed Sep 6 22:40:03 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
628 * Tracked down the problem in the new dtimep where time
629 zones were being radically misreported. It was because the
630 parser knew about military time zones (such as M or E) but in
631 some cases did not know about the textual representation of
632 some zones (like MET). When it encountered one of these, the
633 date parser misread MET as the military time zone T (well, first
634 zone M, then E, and finally T). I took military zones out, and
635 things seem much better. Also, the default behavior of parsing
636 time zones appears to default to GMT in the absence of better
637 info, which is less bogus than assuming the mail came from the
638 current time zone, which was the behavior in 1.04.
640 Thu Aug 10 13:22:13 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
642 * Decided that limiting the message number columns to 3 on my
643 scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD (to try to regain space taken by
644 extra date info) was ill-conceived. It's not that tough to get
645 past 999 messages, though I imagine it's rather rare to exceed
646 9999. Changed these to 4. Also put the "replied / encrypted"
647 column back in YYYYMMDD -- I've never seen it show anything but a
648 space, but that space is useful if you use scan, grep, and awk
649 (with the default field separator) to grab message numbers (I know
650 -- pick should really be used for these purposes...).
652 Mon Aug 7 20:11:09 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
654 * Modify umask set by mhshow to enable user execute bit, so that
655 viewers that create temporary directories (e.g., lynx) will be
658 Thu Aug 03 17:14:08 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
660 * TODO: Allow multiple simultaneous differing contexts, probably
661 each tied to a parent (terminal) process.
663 Tue Aug 1 10:48:05 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
665 * Makefile install rules should not look for generated files in
666 the source tree -- this will happen to work when configuring and
667 building inside the source tree but will fail when using an
668 external build tree. Fixed etc/Makefile.in.
670 Mon Jul 24 16:20:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
672 * When Shantonu wrote the new, more portable dtimep.lex, he left
673 out the #ifdef DSTXXX stuff for some reason. Not a good idea, as
674 that code is required for proper printing of numeric-offset
675 timezones that have daylight saving time. Without that code,
676 -0700 during DST gets printed as MST instead of PDT.
678 * Renamed DSTXXX as ADJUST_NUMERIC_ONLY_TZ_OFFSETS_WRT_DST and
679 added an explanatory comment by its #definition.
681 * Updated README.developers with the fact that zotnet/tws is going away.
683 Thu Jul 20 20:30:52 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
685 * Moved Kimmo's new "--with-hash-backup" to be output with the
686 rest of the --with options in the configure --help output. Also,
687 people did not preserve my alphabetization of the --with options
688 when they added new ones. Re-alphabetized.
690 * One more pass at README.developers now that it's clear that my
691 previously-suggested one-line autoconf-file commit can cause
692 unnecessary local makes and an out-of-sync stamp-h.in file, but
693 would not cause problems for other people using the CVS files.
695 * Ken Hornstein's SASL patch was not integrated properly with
696 Ruud's new merged mts/sendmail code. Kimmo has since fixed nmh so
697 it compiles, but according to Ken, the SASL stuff still does not
698 work. Integrating a patch from him for this.
700 * Last pass at README.developers -- Kimmo's 5-step commit was
701 overkill. You only need 3 steps, since configure.in is the only
702 autoconf file with the RCS $Id keyword.
704 * Applied Kurt J. Lidl <lidl@eng.us.uu.net>'s $MAILHOST patch:
706 I have a small patch that would be nice to be included --
707 basically, it allows the usage of the "MAILHOST" environment
708 variable, without having to have HESIOD turned on. I need
709 this functionality for my environment, where we have identical
710 /usr/local on all my machines (so I cannot just hardcode into
711 the mts.conf file), and I have multiple POP mail servers for
714 Modified inc.man to reflect that along with "pophost:" and -host,
715 $MAILHOST can now activate POP mail inclusion as well.
717 * Fixed warnings from diff on first-time install of nmh. Also
718 added 'echo's clarifying the etc file installation activities.
720 Tue Jul 18 19:36:59 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
722 * Added the answer to Dan's question in README.developers.
724 Mon Jul 17 19:10:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
726 * Clarified and made some corrections to Kimmo's README.developers
727 changes (BTW, if anyone can explain why the RCS Ids are able to cause
728 problems with the dependencies, please fill in the explanation --
729 I never encountered a problem with the old single-commit method).
731 Sat Jul 15 23:13:49 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
733 * Add configure option --with-hash-backup so the backup prefix can
734 be easily changed from "," to "#".
736 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that it works with any make.
738 * Use mkstemp in sbr/lock_file.c.
740 * Commits of autoconf-related files apparently can't all be done
741 in one shot due to RCS Ids changing when committing -- updated
744 Tue Jul 11 14:18:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
746 * Clarified post.man and send.man for those not completely up on
747 SASL terminology. "SASL encryption layers are not supported for
748 SMTP" means that encryption is supported for the authentication
749 but not for the subsequent data stream.
751 Sat Jul 8 01:36:19 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
753 * Applied Ken Hornstein <kenh@cmf.nrl.navy.mil>'s patches
754 implementing SASL support for POP3 and SMTP. If nmh is compiled
755 with SASL support, using the -sasl switch on the inc, msgchk,
756 post, and send commands will enable authentication encryption for
757 SMTP, and both authentication and data stream encryption for POP3.
759 Sat Jun 10 18:37:59 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
761 * Merged mts/sendmail functionality into mts/smtp; switching between
762 smtp and sendmail delivery method is now controlled by mts.conf.
764 * If tsort cannot deal with loops, in addition to defining tsort as
765 cat, also define lorder as echo.
767 * Removed uip/popi.c from list of sources.
769 Thu Jun 08 19:36:57 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
771 * New dtimep.lex didn't parse day names properly. Fixed. Also
772 clarified ambiguous comments preceding day_map[] array (from old
773 dtimep.lex) that probably led to the erroneous cp++ being added.
775 Wed Jun 7 20:52:33 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
777 * Added one more mkstemp invocation to uip/spost.c (which was in a
780 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to clean up permissions handling
781 and error handling in uip/inc.c.
783 Mon Jun 5 22:10:07 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
785 * Use cat instead of tsort if tsort cannot deal with loops in its
786 input (which is the case for tsort from GNU textutils).
788 Mon Jun 5 21:14:36 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
790 * If lockfile is present, and its dotlockfile program is setgid,
791 inc does not need to be setgid.
793 Sun Jun 4 21:35:40 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
795 * Added autoconf test for Miquel van Smoorenburg's liblockfile
796 library, as found on Debian systems.
798 * Added liblockfile support to sbr/lock_file.c.
800 Wed May 31 7:19:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
802 * Fixed up dtimep.lex a bit. Added back memory options for AIX to
803 increase available memory. Took out %option noyywrap, which
804 wasn't understood by AT&T lex, as well as the -i
805 case-insensitivity flag.
807 Wed May 31 07:40:45 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
809 * Added a lint target to the Makefiles and a check in autoconf
810 to determine whether lint or lclint exists on the system.
812 Fri May 30 19:21:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
814 * etc/Makefile.in was incorrectly installing mts.conf.in and
815 sendfiles.in -- fixed. Generated sendfiles script was not a
816 dependency of the `all' target, and was incorrectly included in
817 the distribution. Changed the suffix for the backed-up previous
818 versions of the etc files from the ambiguous .old to .prev. Added
819 call to diff -- only keep the .prev files around if different from
820 the newly-installed versions (intentionally didn't redirect output
821 to /dev/null so you'll notice when your changed versions are
822 getting moved aside).
824 * INSTALL never documented the etc/*.old thing. Documented the
825 new etc/*.prev thing (including a note to watch for diff output).
827 * Applied Alec Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu>'s dropsbr.c patch:
829 In the map_write routine, a call is made to map_open and this
830 call is supposed to set the "clear" variable to 0 or 1,
831 depending on whether the map file is empty or not. In
832 mh6.8.3, this worked because map_open would set "clear" by
833 calling the mbx_Xopen routine. In nmh, the code for mbx_Xopen
834 was merged into mbx_open, but the interface for mbx_open
835 doesn't support the clear variable, so that functionality was
836 lost. The map_open interface still contains "int *clear" in
837 the prototype, but never sets it.
839 My patch eliminates "clear" from the map_open interface (I
840 checked to make sure that map_write is the only client of
841 map_open). Furthermore, my patch also sets the "clear"
842 variable properly at the beginning of map_write by calling
843 fstat(). This eliminates the bug in that the value of "clear"
844 being used later in the routine was just stack garbage.
846 Having a bad value of clear causes this next bug to be
847 triggered: The fp file pointer was being opened with fdopen,
848 but in two of the three switch cases it wasn't being closed.
849 In certain cases, this was causing packf to run out of file
850 descriptors if you attempted to pack a large folder.
852 Mon May 29 7:48:15 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
854 * Moved the date parsing routines from zotnet/tws to sbr/ (and
855 tws.h to h/). Updated all source files to reflect to new location
858 * Rewrote dparsetime (in dtimep.lex -> dtimep.c) to replace the
859 old zotnet/tws/dtimep.c, dtimep.lex, lexstring.c, lexedit.c, and
860 dtimep.c-lexed. It should now work with flex (although untested
861 with lex), and requires no sed-ing. For now, I have the lexed
862 version in the distribution, so that end-users don't need to worry
863 about running it through flex/lex. I have not added back support
864 for guessing the time zone when it's not specified.
866 Sun May 28 17:44:15 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
868 * Added autoconf check for getutent().
870 * Changed uip/rcvtty.c and uip/slocal.c to use getutent() and
871 friends. Since I can only check on Linux, please check if
872 this works on other systems.
874 Sun May 28 14:58:49 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
876 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to uip/scansbr.c for more
877 checks for write failures.
879 * Unlink temporary file properly in uip/rcvtty.c.
881 * Moved viamail from bindir to libdir.
883 * Changed sendfiles into sendfiles.in, so that path to viamail
886 * Added gzip support to sendfiles.
888 * Added References header to replcomps and replgroupcomps.
890 Sun May 28 14:39:31 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
892 * Fixed m_getfld bug which caused segmentation faults when
893 incorporating messages which ended in multiple linefeeds crossing
896 Fri May 26 13:21:59 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
898 * msh has been unable to show MIME messages ever since 1.0. Alec
899 Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu> tracked down the problem to the
900 -show flag being passed to mhshow. mhshow is equivalent to the
901 old mhn -show, so we don't need the -show anymore. Removed it.
903 Fri May 12 02:51:21 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
905 * zotnet/bboards is not longer built by default. Goal is to move
906 the assorted functions in zotnet into sbr or some more logical
909 * Moved zotnet/mf to sbr, and changed mf.h references accordingly,
910 as well as Makefiles.
912 Thu May 11 02:21:34 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
914 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that both SRCS and OBJS aren't
915 seperately and redundantly defined, but so that OBJS is a
916 pattern-substituted version of SRCS with suffix .c -> .o. This
917 should make maintainability easier.
919 * Added section to MACHINES indicating what platforms nmh is known
920 to compile and work on, just to give users peace of mind, or
921 something. This is by no means complete or exhaustive, so add
922 whatever you know works.
924 Tue May 09 20:38:04 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
926 * Alphabetized Shantonu's $pop_kinds output on configure's "pop is
927 enabled" line. If POP3 is the only kind of POP enabled, say so,
928 rather than just saying "yes" (which is ambiguous).
930 * Fixed four warnings in Shantonu's new getpass.c. Needed to
931 #include <stdlib.h> for calloc(), <unistd.h> for ttyname(), and
932 "h/mh.h" for adios(). Also changed ch from char to int to get rid
933 of "comparison is always 1 due to limited range of data type" on EOF.
935 * Added steps to README.developers saying to change the version
936 number to X.Y.Z+dev. Did a little rearranging and changed the FTP
937 dir from /home/ftp to /var/ftp to reflect Doug's new machine.
939 * Changed configure.in to use gcc -Wall even without
940 --enable-debug, to prevent developers compiling optimized from
941 introducing warnings, and to give end-users a warm, fuzzy feeling
942 as they (hopefully) see no warnings come out (except perhaps on
943 the lex output file) even with -Wall.
945 * Renamed getpass() to nmh_getpass() since the prototype for
946 getpass() varies from OS to OS, and we want to _always_ use our
947 version of the function. Fixed all the callers to use
948 nmh_getpass() and added it to prototypes.h. Semi-arbitrarily
949 upped MAX_PASSWORD_LEN from 128 to 256. buf was being calloc()'d
950 and the memory leaked -- should have just been declared as static
951 char array. Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the
952 copyright message, as this version has been changed significantly
953 from the BSD version.
955 * Added "nmh-local functions to use in preference to OS versions"
956 section to README.developers (currently just says to use
957 nmh_getpass() instead of system getpass()).
959 * Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the copyright message
962 * Added mts.conf.5 page per Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s
965 This happens on solaris:
968 windex entry incorrect: mts.conf(5) not found.
969 No manual entry for mts.conf.
973 % echo ".so man5/mh-tailor.5" > mts.conf.5
975 done in the man5 directory. We need to add 'mts.conf.5' as a
976 reference sourcing mh-tailor.5.
978 Mon May 08 23:51:55 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
980 * Doug informed me that the way I had restored the "lost" version
981 histories was wrong, because `cvs checkout's of old versions of
982 nmh wouldn't work properly. It occurs to me that this could be
983 fixed by simply deleting those tags in the new-location *,v files,
984 but oh well. I'm putting everything back to the way Doug
985 originally had it. To get the old version history for a file that
986 used to be in the top directory, you'll need to "blindly" do a
987 `cvs log' there (even though you won't have a local copy of the
988 file in that directory). `cvs diff' will no longer be able to
989 diff pre-move versions vs. post-move versions -- you'll have to do
990 a lot of manual gyrations with `cvs checkout' and then use `diff'.
992 * I had alphabetized the --configure options in the --help output
993 awhile back, but Shantonu added --enable-apop just under
994 --enable-pop. Put it in alphabetical order and clarified what
995 --enable-apop does vs. --enable-pop and --with-krb4. Also changed
996 --with-mts help line from "mail transport agent" to "mail
997 transport agent/service" so the 's' in "mts" doesn't seem to come
1000 * Added two steps to "releasing nmh" in README.developers. After
1001 making the tarball, it's a good idea to diff the tree vs. the CVS
1002 tree to make sure no files got left out, and then to chown the
1003 files so that they're owned by root, preventing a Trojaning attack
1004 by a malicious remote user with a UID matching yours.
1006 * Changed DIFFERENCES to say that RPOP is not currently supported
1007 rather than implying it by saying that APOP, KPOP, and POP[3] are.
1009 Sun May 07 18:16:43 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1011 * Imported NetBSD version of getpass() and made extensive
1012 revisions for compatibility with programs that pipe the password
1013 to stdin, such as exmh.
1015 * Removed tests for system ruserpass() which sometimes gave
1016 phantom positive results. Also, bext to use internal functions if
1017 we ever want to change .netrc format to something else, or access
1020 Sat May 06 08:28:09 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1022 * Restored lost version histories for those moved files by doing a
1023 manual `mv' in the CVSROOT on mhost. CVS badly needs a `cvs mv'
1024 command so that you can move files (without having physical access
1025 to the CVSROOT) without losing versioning. Put MACHINES back at
1026 the top level as it needs to be read before building. Fixed DIST
1027 variable in {.,docs}/Makefile.in to reflect that and to add
1028 missing entry for "INSTALL" file.
1030 Sat May 06 13:13:07 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1032 * Re-cleaned up nmh documentation (by moving things to docs
1033 subdir) and modified Makefile & configure.in to handle the change.
1035 Mon Apr 17 21:28:40 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1037 * Scott Blachowicz pointed out that the configure --help output
1038 for --enable-masquerade was misleading. Clarified.
1040 Mon Apr 17 19:01:00 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1042 * APOP support can be compiled in to inc and msgchk using
1045 * To access an APOP host, specify -apop on the command line
1046 along with any -host or -user option.
1048 Fri Apr 14 23:10:44 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1050 * Upped the version number to 1.0.4+dev until the next nmh release.
1052 * Added a "releasing nmh" section to README.developers, while the
1053 process was fresh in my mind.
1055 Fri Apr 14 18:21:34 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1057 * Added new files README.developers, ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6, and
1058 ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html to DIST target in Makefile.in.
1060 * Released nmh-1.0.4.
1062 Tue Apr 11 21:37:03 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1064 * Applied Brian Campbell <bacam@tardis.ed.ac.uk>'s mhn.defaults.sh
1067 It appears that there shouldn't be quotes around the %s in the
1068 iso-8859-1 charset entry; xterm passes the remaining arguments
1069 to the program, quoting them means that xterm thinks they're
1070 part of the program's name.
1072 This %s isn't the same as the "Insert content subtype" one from
1073 mhshow-show-* -- it doesn't come from MIME headers and is safe not
1076 Sun Apr 09 13:03:59 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1078 * added check in fmt_compile() to handle a single-character
1079 format string. fmt_compile() depends on having an array of
1080 format characters with an empty item at the end. A
1081 single-character format would cause programs using this
1082 function to segfault because the algorithm used to decide on
1083 the length of the array mistakenly created a single-item array
1084 when the format string was one character. This eventually
1085 caused problems when the program attempted to test item+1
1088 Thu Apr 06 21:53:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1090 * Richard Coleman threw out a lot of old MH-specific files in nmh.
1091 Much of the stuff, indeed, is not worth saving, but there are
1092 nuggets that are very worthwhile, and should probably be added
1093 back in. Most important, IMHO, are the MH change logs, as they
1094 can help answer questions like "Why is this code like this?" or
1095 "How long has this been broken?" or "What was this ever used for?"
1097 I've added a new file to the nmh tree called
1098 ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6. It's cobbled together from the
1099 mh-6.8.4/papers/mh*/MHCHANGES files. I've re-ordered the entries
1100 to go from newest at the top to oldest at the bottom to match the
1101 ChangeLog convention. Unfortunately there are no change logs for
1102 versions of MH prior to 3 in the MH tar files available at
1103 <ftp://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/mh>. Also, it appears to me that there
1104 are MH-6.6 changes that aren't documented in the logs.
1106 I've also added ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html. This is
1107 based on mh-6.8.4/papers/changes/mh-changes.ms. The nroff format
1108 and its "catman"-type output are a pain to deal with, but I was
1109 loath to throw away the formatting, so I converted the file to
1110 HTML. The only actual markup in the body are the "<B>" and "<U>"
1111 tags, and "<" and ">" instead of '<' and '>', so it's quite
1112 doable to view the file in plain ASCII mode as well. Note that
1113 some of the changes this file documents as having been made in
1114 MH-6.8.4 may not be present in nmh -- Richard started with 6.8.3
1115 and later put in certain 6.8.4 stuff.
1117 Wed Apr 05 21:09:28 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1119 * Applied Eric Schnoebelen <eric@cirr.com>'s mhshowsbr.c patch
1120 fixing apparent bugs in Dan Winship's new security quoting code:
1122 Since upgrading, I've been getting the following errors
1123 while attempting to process some MIME messages:
1125 (1) Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
1130 (2) line 1/10 (END)Segmentation fault (core dumped)
1132 (2) appears to be due to the testing of an unset pointer in
1133 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux(). (1) appears to be caused by
1134 mis-quoting a filename being handed to the shell in
1135 mhshowsbr.c:show_content_aux().
1137 Resolving the pointer reference issue in
1138 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux() turned up a similar mis-quoting
1139 problem in the routine.
1141 Tue Mar 28 16:17:39 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1143 * Applied Todd.Miller@courtesan.com's patch to dropsbr.c to
1144 prevent core dumping on packf. Here's the note from his message:
1146 Since sizeof(buffer) == sizeof(tmpbuffer) packf will dump
1147 core on a file w/o a From line with a line >= BUFSIZ.
1148 I noticed this because I had a junk file in my mail
1151 Fri Mar 17 11:59:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1153 * wesley.craig@umich.edu did not document his previous KPOP patch,
1154 so I did so, and asked him to check what I wrote. Unfortunately
1155 he didn't notice my misunderstanding of his patch. I wrote that
1156 if you #define POPSERVICE "kpop", inc and msgchk will use KPOP
1157 exclusively, but if you leave it as "pop3", you can use Wesley's
1158 new -kpop switch on a given invocation. Instead, however, -kpop
1159 turned out to be necessary on every invocation, and a KPOP user
1160 complained. Applied Wesley's new patch, which makes things work
1161 like I thought his original patch did. After that, did one more
1162 clarifying pass to the documentation in inc.man and msgchk.man.
1164 Wed Mar 15 18:45:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1166 * When I fixed the long-standing makedir() bugs in January, I had
1167 the code call strtoul(..., 0), which I believed to be safe as all
1168 modes specified as ASCII constants in the nmh code started with a
1169 leading zero (signifying octal), which I did as it would work if
1170 internal constants were ever changed to hex. Unfortunately I was
1171 unaware of the "Folder-Protect:" .mh_profile entry, which
1172 mh-profile.man documents as an octal-only constant, with no
1173 leading zero required. I've changed the strtoul() call to an
1174 atooi() call and removed the misleading leading zeroes on the
1175 ASCII octal constants in the code and man pages. Also changed the
1176 "Folder-Protect:" example in the man page to something more
1177 interesting than a duplication of the default.
1179 * When I added my --enable-masquerade option, you'll note that I
1180 didn't make it --enable-nmh-masquerade. I find the --enable-nmh-*
1181 options too wordy and I'm not sure why Richard went that route.
1182 I've renamed them to just --enable-*, but the old versions will
1183 still work as well (they just aren't advertised).
1185 * Added a line to the "nmh configuration" output saying whether
1188 * Added a new README.developers file. From the file:
1190 This file is intended to provide a few tips for anyone doing
1191 development on nmh. Developers who learn things "the hard
1192 way" about the nmh codebase (as opposed to local info best
1193 encoded in a comment) are encouraged to share their wisdom
1196 Currently the topics are "autoconf files" and "directory structure".
1198 Tue Mar 14 12:41:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1200 * Applied, after some finessing,
1201 Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s --with-smtpservers patch:
1203 Here's a patch that allows you to add
1205 --with-smtpservers=<some.host.name>
1207 to the ./configure command line to set the "servers: " line in
1208 etc/mts.conf. Around here, we use "mailhost" so that all
1209 machines in the current domain just talk to a central machine
1210 and nothing else runs an MTA. Now, I can use
1212 --with-smtpservers=mailhost
1214 instead of having to remember to fix this by hand (and often
1215 forgetting to do so!).
1217 * Inspired by Simon's patch, added an --enable-masquerade option
1218 to configure. It will set the "masquerade:" line of mts.conf.
1219 You may specify a subset of the three types of masquerading, like
1220 --enable-masquerade="draft_from mmailid", or leave off explicit
1221 arguments to enable all three types.
1223 * Alphabetized the --enable and --with options in configure.in and
1224 INSTALL and added documentation of the two new options to the latter.
1226 * Added new dependency for mts.conf: Makefile. If this isn't
1227 done, then when you reconfigure nmh with new values for
1228 --enable-masquerade or --with-smtpservers, you'll fail to get an
1229 updated copy of mts.conf.
1231 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtimep.lex patch:
1233 It seems that some MUA's didn't handle y2k very well - ELM
1234 seems to be one of them, and Ultrix's DXmail (based on MH!).
1235 I've got a few emails this month that look like:
1237 575 Jan 00 Xxxxxx Xxxx 3603 ...
1239 22+ Jan 00 Xxx Xxxxx 1771 ...
1241 The first has "15 Jan 100" as the date and the second has
1242 "19 Jan 00" as the date. The following works around this so
1243 that scan, show, sortm, etc work ok.
1245 I put Simon's patch under the control of a new #define called
1246 FIX_NON_Y2K_COMPLIANT_MUA_DATES. There's some commentary in
1247 acconfig.h about when you might not want to #define it.
1249 * Created new dtimep.c-lexed with Simon's change using dtimep.lex
1250 lexed on Solaris 2.6. Added missing dependency in
1251 zotnet/tws/Makefile.in for dtimep.c: dtimep.c-lexed.
1253 * Added scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD format files.
1255 Mon Mar 13 21:32:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1257 * Applied Sullivan N. Beck <sbeck@cise.ufl.edu>'s mhshow-suffix patch:
1259 With the patch below, you can add lines like:
1261 mhshow-suffix-application/msword: .doc
1262 mhshow-suffix-application/PostScript: .ps
1264 to the mhn.defaults file to append the given suffix to a
1265 scratch file. This allows applications which require a
1266 certain suffix to run properly.
1268 * Removed -force_html from lynx entry in mhn.defaults.sh (I
1269 believe older versions of lynx lack that option) and added
1270 "mhshow-suffix-text/html: .html".
1272 * Modified username_extension masquerading to only use the
1273 extended address on generated [Resent-]From: lines and SMTP
1274 envelope From:. With Neil's original implementation, nmh's global
1275 idea of the username was changed, which would result in inc lying
1276 and saying you had no new mail because it was looking for a
1277 mailbox called, for instance, "dan-nmh" (where username was "dan"
1278 and $USERNAME_EXTENSION was "-nmh").
1280 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtime.c patch:
1282 There's a wrap-around problem that affects the implementation
1283 of Zeller's congruence in dtime.c. This causes the day-of-week
1284 calculations to fail for dates after Feb 29, 2000 (probably up
1285 until some year far in the future).
1287 Mon Mar 06 12:20:20 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1289 * Applied Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s msh.c patch:
1291 I finally tracked down the problem in msh that was causing
1292 errors whenever I tried to examine a 'mmdf' style mailbox.
1294 It turns out that not enough memory was being allocated with
1295 calloc(), causing memory pointers to be overwritten and
1298 Fri Mar 03 16:07:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1300 * Changed the new "plussed_user" option to mts.conf's
1301 "masquerade:" to "username_extension" after getting feedback from
1302 qmail users, who use '-' as a separator rather than '+'. Removed
1303 checking of $USERPLUS variable. Now check $USERNAME_EXTENSION,
1304 which needs to include the appropriate separator for your MTA
1305 ('-', '+', or whatever) as its first character.
1307 Thu Mar 02 23:04:30 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1309 * Added a new "boolean" type to mh.h and TRUE and FALSE constants.
1311 * Added a note to DIFFERENCES stating that it's out-of-date
1312 (Richard was the last one to update it) and that we should
1313 consider only documenting incompatibilities with MH there.
1315 * Implemented (and documented) a third kind of username
1316 masquerading: "plussed user" masquerading. This one was suggested
1317 by Neil Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>. It's based on sendmail's
1318 "plussed user" feature, where mail sent to <user>+<string> will be
1319 delivered to <user>. When it's enabled, it's controlled by the
1320 $USERPLUS environment variable. How is it enabled? Well, that
1323 * Renamed the "mmailid:" setting in mts.conf to "masquerade:", and
1324 changed it so that rather than being a boolean, it can be set to
1325 any combination of the three values "draft_from", "mmailid", and
1326 "plussed_user". Thus it is now possible to enable the three types
1327 of masquerading individually.
1329 * Fixed a bug with "mmailid" masquerading (dating back to MH?)
1330 where if it was turned on, ','s would no longer be considered
1331 GECOS field delimiters.
1333 Wed Mar 01 23:30:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1335 * Changed the GECOS-field '&' translation behavior to be
1336 controlled by the BSD42 #define rather than GCOS_HACK, since it's
1337 apparently always appropriate on OSes where BSD42 is #defined, and
1338 never appropriate on any other OSes. Thanks to Kimmo Suominen for
1339 responding to my "What is this code here for?" comment in mts.c
1340 and explaining the feature.
1342 Mon Feb 28 21:50:29 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1344 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3+dev (ideally this should be
1345 done by whoever makes a release tar file, immediately after doing
1348 * Applied Paul Fox <pgf-spam@foxharp.boston.ma.us>'s scansbr.c
1349 patch, posted to comp.mail.mh, which he says prevents loss of mail
1350 when inc'ing into a full filesystem.
1352 * Changed "echo > stamp-h.in" in Makefile.in to "date > stamp-h.in"
1353 so that stamp-h.in will be different each time configure.in and
1354 related files are changed, making it easier to check it in (which
1355 is necessary to prevent unnecessary autoconf calls).
1357 * My declaration of initgroups() in slocal.c to eliminate the "no
1358 prototype" warning wasn't portable (FreeBSD 3.[23] choked). Now
1359 use AC_EGREP_HEADER to see where initgroups() is declared, if
1362 Sun Feb 20 12:17:15 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1364 * Fix security hole in mhshowsbr.c which allowed untrusted shell
1365 code to be executed.
1367 * Released nmh 1.0.3.
1369 Thu Feb 10 10:54:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1371 * Oops. %-escapes on mhstore lines in mhn.defaults.sh should not
1372 be surrounded by single quotes, as a shell is not spawned when
1373 just saving files, and the filenames will end up with literal
1374 quotes embedded in them.
1376 Fri Feb 04 12:29:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1378 * Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
1379 got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
1380 the -help output. One theory is that they were making reference
1381 to the fact that clearly you know about the -help option since
1382 you're currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea
1383 to overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
1384 supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
1387 The other theory is that because you can say something like
1388 "mhstore -" and get "mhstore: - ambiguous. It matches" followed
1389 by the same list of switches you get with -help, they were saying
1390 you can "sorta" abbreviate "-help" as "-". You don't get the
1391 "Usage:" string, though, so it's not really the same thing.
1393 Thu Feb 03 17:52:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1395 * Applied wesley.craig@umich.edu's KPOP patches. According to him:
1397 The following patch fixes a problem with requesting a
1398 service key for a machine that has multiple 'A' records. It
1399 also makes "-kpop" a command line option, for users who
1400 would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".
1402 Did no testing of the new features, as I don't have access to a
1405 * Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
1407 * Modified INSTALL and config.h.in to reflect the new -kpop feature.
1409 Fri Jan 28 17:39:24 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1411 * All %-escapes in mhn.defaults that actually expand to something
1412 should be surrounded by single quotes. Added quotes to the ones
1413 in mhn.defaults.sh that were missing them.
1415 * Added check for lynx to write mhshow-show-text/html line in
1418 Thu Jan 27 12:22:25 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1420 * makedir() had multiple bugs dating back to MH. An octal
1421 constant was apparently being interpreted as decimal, resulting in
1422 directories with no user read or execute permissions, making
1423 nested directory creation fail. And there wasn't even an
1424 _attempt_ to set desired permissions (e.g. from "Folder-Protect:"
1425 in .mh_profile) on the outer directories of a nested directory.
1427 * A second `make install' would always fail because the check for
1428 whether mh_profile.5 existed was written incorrectly.
1430 Wed Jan 26 02:22:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1432 * Added documentation on both types of masquerading to post's man
1435 Tue Jan 25 22:58:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1437 * Doug's portability fix of my setgid inc autodetection had a
1438 caching bug -- if you re-ran configure, uip/Makefile would be
1439 corrupted, and installation would bomb out on OSes where inc needs
1442 * Implemented a new kind of email address masquerading. Usually,
1443 when a user writes a custom "From:" header in a draft, nmh uses it
1444 rather than generating one. However, the user's true address is
1445 used in the SMTP envelope "From:" and is revealed in the "Sender:"
1446 header. Now, when mmailid is set to non-zero, the envelope
1447 "From:" uses the address specified in the draft "From:" header,
1448 and there is no "Sender:" header. This is useful when sending on
1449 behalf of a remote POP3 account or when remote mail robots
1450 incorrectly use the envelope "From:" in preference to the body
1451 "From:". This processing has only been implemented for post, not
1452 for the undocumented spost (which was already missing some "From:"
1453 processing that post has).
1455 Mon Jan 24 22:26:06 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1457 * Got rid of the rest of the gcc -Wall warnings that I didn't have
1458 time for on 1999-07-15 (and, it would seem, some new ones people
1459 introduced since then). The primary ones were the warnings that
1460 default prototypes were being used for [v]snprintf() and
1461 str[n]casecmp(). As of right now, there are _no_ compilation
1462 warnings except on dtimep.c-lexed (at least under AIX 4.1.5 and
1465 Sun Jan 2 23:42:18 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1467 * Move mhtest from bindir to libdir.
1469 * Move sendfiles from libdir to bindir.
1471 * Updated sendfiles manpage to reflect this change.
1473 * Added documentation for -build and -file switches to repl and
1474 forw manpages (patch from Peter Maydell).
1476 * Fixed interaction between specifying -cc in profile and -group on
1479 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1481 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
1482 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
1483 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
1486 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1488 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
1489 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
1490 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
1491 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
1492 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
1493 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).
1495 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1497 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
1499 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1501 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
1502 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
1503 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
1504 caught again. This works for now.
1506 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
1508 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1510 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
1511 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
1513 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1515 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
1516 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
1518 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
1520 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
1522 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1524 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
1525 changes. Both need more cleanup.
1527 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1529 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
1530 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
1531 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
1532 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
1533 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
1536 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1538 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
1539 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
1540 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
1542 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
1543 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
1546 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1548 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
1549 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
1550 to a directory on another device with more free space.
1552 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1554 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
1555 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
1557 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1559 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
1562 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
1563 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
1565 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
1566 macros, regardless of platform.
1568 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
1569 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1571 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
1572 with x-conversions=gzip.
1574 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1576 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
1579 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
1580 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
1581 implicit definition of ioctl().
1583 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
1584 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
1585 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
1586 want to mess with them.
1588 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1590 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
1591 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
1593 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
1594 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
1596 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
1597 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
1598 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
1600 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
1601 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
1602 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
1604 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
1605 function initgroups.
1607 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
1610 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
1611 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
1614 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
1615 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
1618 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
1619 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
1623 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1625 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
1626 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
1627 preventing compilation on at least linux.
1629 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
1630 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
1632 Thu Sep 09 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1634 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
1636 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
1637 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
1638 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
1639 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
1641 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
1642 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
1644 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1646 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
1648 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1650 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
1651 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
1653 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1655 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
1656 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
1658 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
1659 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
1660 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
1661 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
1663 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
1664 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
1666 Sat Jun 09 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1668 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
1669 substitute it for mktemp if available.
1671 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1673 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
1674 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
1677 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
1679 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
1681 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
1683 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
1684 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
1686 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
1687 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
1688 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
1690 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
1691 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
1692 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
1694 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
1695 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
1696 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1698 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
1699 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
1702 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
1703 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1705 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
1706 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1708 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
1709 <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1711 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
1712 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
1713 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1715 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
1716 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1718 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
1719 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
1720 <elleron@servtech.com>.
1722 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
1723 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
1726 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
1727 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
1729 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
1730 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
1731 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
1732 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
1734 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
1735 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
1737 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1741 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
1742 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
1743 would not be changed.
1745 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
1746 one from the Apache web server.
1748 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
1749 (this should have been done a long time ago).
1751 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
1752 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
1753 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
1755 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
1757 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
1759 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
1760 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
1763 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
1764 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
1765 removes a bad race condition.
1767 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
1770 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
1771 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
1772 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
1774 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
1775 sequence information.
1777 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
1778 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
1780 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
1783 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
1786 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
1788 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
1789 interpret 034 as octal.
1791 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
1793 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
1794 mhstore, and mhbuild.
1796 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
1797 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
1799 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
1800 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
1802 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
1803 in the c_cefile structure when building.
1805 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
1806 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
1808 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
1809 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
1810 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
1812 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
1813 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
1814 and mhshow. Updated man pages
1816 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
1818 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
1820 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
1821 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
1824 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
1826 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
1827 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
1829 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
1830 header field information.
1832 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
1833 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
1835 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
1836 values when parsing a content.
1838 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
1839 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
1841 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
1842 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
1844 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
1845 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1847 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
1848 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
1850 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
1852 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
1854 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
1856 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
1858 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
1859 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
1862 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
1863 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
1865 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
1866 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
1867 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
1868 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
1869 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
1870 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
1873 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1875 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
1876 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
1877 buffer length checks for this parameter.
1879 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
1880 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
1882 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1884 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
1885 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
1886 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
1887 of the limits on the length of command lines.
1889 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
1890 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
1893 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
1894 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
1895 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
1896 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
1899 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1901 * Released nmh-0.27.
1903 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
1904 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
1906 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
1907 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
1908 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
1909 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
1912 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
1913 mhbuild returns an error.
1915 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
1916 rename the draft file.
1918 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
1919 use a global variable.
1921 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
1922 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
1924 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
1925 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
1927 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
1928 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
1929 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
1931 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
1932 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
1934 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
1935 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
1938 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
1939 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
1942 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
1943 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
1945 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
1946 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
1947 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
1949 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
1950 to new function output_content_folder.
1952 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
1953 new function output_content_file.
1955 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
1956 to new function parse_format_string.
1958 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
1959 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
1960 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
1961 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
1963 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
1964 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
1965 message/external file from ftp.
1967 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
1968 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
1969 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
1971 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
1972 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
1975 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
1978 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
1979 new file mhstoresbr.c
1981 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
1984 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
1985 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
1987 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
1988 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
1990 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
1991 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
1992 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
1994 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
1996 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
1998 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
1999 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
2002 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
2003 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
2005 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
2008 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
2010 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2012 * Released nmh-0.26.
2014 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
2015 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
2016 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
2017 is still the same (dashstuffing).
2019 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
2020 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
2021 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
2022 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
2023 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
2025 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
2026 But it is not on by default.
2028 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
2029 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
2031 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
2033 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
2035 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
2037 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
2039 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
2040 number of the "cur" message when packing.
2042 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2044 * Released nmh-0.25.
2046 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
2047 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
2048 uses the original name of the library.
2050 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
2051 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
2054 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
2055 list_content and list_debug.
2057 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
2059 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
2060 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.
2062 1998-02-27 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2064 * Released nmh-0.24.
2066 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
2068 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
2069 are given, that order doesn't matter.
2071 * Fix bug in seq_list.c when realloc'ing for
2072 large sequence line.
2074 1998-02-23 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2076 * Released nmh-0.23.
2078 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
2080 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
2081 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan
2082 content, decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary
2083 string). I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
2085 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
2086 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
2089 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
2091 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
2093 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
2095 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
2096 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
2098 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
2099 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.
2101 * Add note to MACHINES file that on Linux, configure
2102 doesn't find the functions sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
2104 * Fix configuration for machines that don't have (or find)
2105 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
2107 1998-02-11 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2109 * Released nmh-0.22.
2111 * Add a configure check for sigsetjmp. Add some conditional
2112 #define's in h/signals.h in case it's not found.
2114 * Added additional notes about -auto switch in mhn man page.
2116 * Added note about MM_CHARSET environment variable to
2117 mh-profile(5) man page.
2119 * Fix signal problem in mhn.c (change setjmp/longjmp to
2120 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp).
2122 1998-02-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2124 * Released nmh-0.22-pre1.
2126 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
2127 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
2129 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
2131 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
2132 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
2133 entry point for parsing MIME files.
2135 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
2136 source message on the standard input.
2138 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
2140 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
2141 rather than -rfc934mode.
2143 * Fix mhbuild, so that Content-Description and RFC-822 comments
2144 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
2147 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
2148 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).
2150 * Restore HP specific code to zotnet/tws/lexstring.c. Apparently
2153 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2155 * Released nmh-0.21.
2157 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
2158 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.
2160 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what transfer
2163 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what character set
2164 to use for text contents.
2166 * Removed old hpux specific code from zotnet/tws/lexstring.c
2168 1998-02-02 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2170 * Released nmh-0.21-pre2.
2172 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
2174 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
2175 header fields as per RFC-2047.
2177 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
2178 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
2179 spaces between encoded word are.
2181 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
2183 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
2184 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
2186 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
2187 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
2188 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
2190 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
2192 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
2193 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
2195 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.
2197 * Added support for %(decode) to fmtdump.c.
2199 * check_charset() now accepts US-ASCII as a subset of any
2200 ISO-8859-X character set.
2202 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
2205 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
2206 permissions, not write permissions.
2208 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
2209 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
2211 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
2214 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2216 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
2218 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
2219 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
2221 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
2222 message contains valid character set.
2224 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
2225 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
2227 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
2228 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
2230 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
2231 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
2232 between an encoded word and normal text.
2234 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
2235 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
2237 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
2238 as a RFC-2047 header field.
2240 * The command install-mh now recognizes the switches -version
2243 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
2244 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
2247 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
2248 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
2250 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
2251 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
2253 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
2255 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2257 * Released nmh-0.20.
2259 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
2261 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.
2263 * Changed the default format file for mhl (mhl.format) to
2264 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
2265 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
2267 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
2268 and the To: line was missing.
2270 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
2272 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2274 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
2276 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
2277 watch the POP transaction.
2279 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
2280 first, and use it if available.
2282 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
2283 first, and use it if available.
2285 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2287 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
2289 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
2290 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
2291 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
2294 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
2295 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
2296 returns the state FLDPLUS.
2298 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
2299 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
2302 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
2304 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
2305 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
2307 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
2309 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
2310 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
2312 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
2313 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
2314 message to which you are replying.
2316 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
2317 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
2318 making group replies.
2320 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
2322 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2324 * Released nmh-0.19.
2326 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
2327 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
2329 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
2330 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
2331 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
2332 to the end of the man page.
2334 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
2335 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
2336 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
2337 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
2338 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
2339 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
2341 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
2344 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
2345 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
2346 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
2348 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
2349 the next available number above the message number you wish
2352 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
2353 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
2355 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
2356 file sbr/seq_print.c
2358 * flist will now update the current folder.
2360 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
2361 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
2362 but now undocumented.
2364 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
2367 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
2368 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
2370 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
2372 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
2373 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
2375 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2377 * Released nmh-0.18.
2379 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
2380 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
2381 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
2383 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
2384 retains the public/private status of sequences.
2386 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
2387 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
2388 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
2389 previous public/private status.
2391 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
2394 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
2397 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
2398 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
2399 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
2401 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
2402 take option to determine whether it should get current
2403 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
2404 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
2406 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
2408 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
2409 wait for stopped processes.
2411 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
2412 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
2414 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2416 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
2418 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
2419 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
2421 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
2422 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
2424 * Change the way that memory for message status is
2425 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
2426 the folder/message structure. This required changing
2427 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
2429 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
2432 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
2435 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
2437 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
2438 the debugging output.
2440 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
2441 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
2443 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2445 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
2447 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
2448 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
2450 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
2452 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
2453 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
2454 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
2455 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
2456 in the given sequence.
2458 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
2459 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
2460 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
2461 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
2462 subdirectories of a given directory.
2464 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
2465 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
2466 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
2468 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
2469 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
2471 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
2473 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
2476 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
2477 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
2478 fields are now calculated at runtime.
2480 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
2481 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
2482 are calculated at runtime.
2484 Sun Nov 30 19:14:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2486 * Released nmh-0.18-pre2.
2488 * Add paragraph to man page for install-mh and to INSTALL file
2489 about checking for global mh.profile.
2491 * Renamed m_find() to context_find().
2492 Renamed m_replace() to context_replace().
2493 Renamed m_delete() to context_del().
2494 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
2495 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
2496 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
2498 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
2499 adding message to folder itself.
2501 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
2502 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
2503 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
2506 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
2507 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
2510 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
2511 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
2512 is the same as the direct smtp code).
2514 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
2515 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
2517 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
2518 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
2519 code to use it yet).
2521 Thu Nov 13 18:42:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2523 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.
2525 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never
2526 called with a value larger than 30 mintues.
2528 * Fixed race condition in rmm and refile, so that
2529 context is updated before external rmmproc is called.
2531 * Removed all the OVERHEAD code.
2533 * Move code to add message to folder from refile.c
2536 Fri Jul 25 19:39:29 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2538 * Did some rearranging of the internals of inc.c.
2540 * Make -inplace the default for anno, forw, dist, and repl.
2542 * Changed --enable-smtp to --with-mts={smtp,sendmail}
2544 * Created new directory mts/sendmail for direct sendmail
2545 interface (although it currently still uses SMTP).
2547 * Removed all the TMA (trusted mail agent) code
2549 * Removed all the TTYD (terminal access daemon) code
2551 * Removed all the MF (uucp filtering) code.
2553 * Removed all the code for BERK.
2555 * Removed all the code for stand-alone delivery (MHMTS).
2557 * Split the file mts/sendmail/smail.c into sendmail.c and
2558 smtp.c. Changed the name of the directory to mts/smtp.
2560 * Changed autoconf to use @sysconfdir@ for location of
2561 configuration files.
2563 * Changed #define in mhn.c from FTP to BUILTIN_FTP.
2565 Mon Jul 21 03:22:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2567 * Released nmh-0.17.
2569 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
2571 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
2572 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
2574 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
2577 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
2578 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
2580 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
2581 number of refiled message.
2583 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
2585 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
2586 for return value of wait().
2588 * Change configure to also check /bin for "more".
2590 Sat Jul 12 00:02:23 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2592 * Released nmh-0.16.
2594 Mon Jun 23 20:13:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2596 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
2598 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
2599 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
2600 deal with binary messages, yet).
2602 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
2604 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
2606 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
2607 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
2608 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
2609 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
2610 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
2611 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
2613 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
2614 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
2616 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
2617 From MH-6.8.4 patch.
2619 * Fix double free of ctinfo in user_content when using
2620 #forw with single message. From John MacMillan (and
2623 * Changed -mhnproc switch for show, to -showmimeproc.
2625 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".
2627 * Added "mime" option to "whatnow", which calls the program
2628 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
2631 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
2634 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
2636 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
2637 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
2638 which used unsigned chars by default.
2640 Sat Jun 21 01:21:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2642 * Released nmh-0.15.
2644 * Added new form "scan.unseen" to distribution. It marks messages
2645 which are in any sequence in Unseen-Sequence.
2647 * Do some rearranging of date/time code in zotnet/tws/dtime.c
2649 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
2651 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
2654 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
2655 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
2656 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
2658 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
2659 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
2661 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
2663 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
2664 they conflict with defines on AIX.
2666 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
2667 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
2668 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
2669 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
2671 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
2672 and put in own subroutine.
2674 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
2675 and put in own subroutine.
2677 * Moved code to remove messages from folder into own
2678 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and
2679 refile.c to use new routine.
2681 Fri May 16 06:09:31 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2683 * Renamed m_seqok to seq_nameok.
2685 * Changed m_setunseen, msh, mshcmds, flist, and scan to use
2688 * Changed m_seqflag to return the number of a sequence rather
2689 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
2690 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
2692 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
2695 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before
2696 adding message to sequence.
2698 * Renamed function m_setvis to m_setunseen, and renamed
2699 corresponding file in sbr.
2701 * Renamed function m_setseq to m_setprev, and renamed corresponding
2704 * Changed mark.c and pick.c to use m_seqaddsel and m_seqdelsel.
2706 * Added new function m_seqdelsel to m_seqdel.c, which deletes
2707 all selected messages from a sequence.
2709 * Added new function m_seqaddsel to m_seqadd.c, which adds all
2710 selected messages to a sequence.
2712 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,
2715 Thu May 15 00:53:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2717 * Renamed function pack_folder to m_packfolder, and moved it
2718 from uip/folder.c into its own file sbr/m_packfolder.c
2720 Wed May 14 23:38:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2722 * Changed function m_gmsg to m_readfolder. Renamed file
2723 sbr/m_gmsg.c to sbr/m_readfolder.c.
2725 Mon May 5 19:57:11 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2727 * Expanded rcvtty man page, and added small patch from
2728 MH-6.8.4 distribution.
2730 Fri May 2 15:24:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2732 * Released nmh-0.14.
2734 * Comment out configure test and code for tgetent to allocate its
2735 own termcap buffer when passed a NULL argument.
2737 Sat Apr 26 03:46:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2739 * Added new options `-checkmime', `-nocheckmime', and `-mhnproc'
2740 to show. Restructured code to handle options to various
2741 `procs' better. Deprecated `-noshowproc' option and NOMHNPROC
2742 environment variable.
2744 * Added new man page `mh-draft' which documents the
2745 draft folder facility in nmh.
2747 * Renamed fmtsbr.h to fmt_scan.h. Renamed fmtcompile.h
2750 * split fmtsbr.c into fmt_scan.c and fmt_new.c. Renamed
2751 fmtcompile.c to fmt_compile.c, and formataddr.c to
2754 * `send -help' wasn't showing the -(no)mime and -split
2757 Fri Apr 25 02:50:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2759 * Released nmh-0.13.
2761 * Changed mhpath so it doesn't abort if a message sequence
2762 such as "mhpath all" expands to more than 1000 messages.
2763 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
2764 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
2767 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
2768 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
2770 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2772 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if
2773 necessary. So `folders' can now handle more than 300 folders.
2775 Tue Apr 22 14:01:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2777 * Change configure to use a compile check to see if the tm struct
2778 has tm_gmtoff, rather than using egrep.
2780 Mon Apr 21 02:19:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2782 * Released nmh-0.12.
2784 * Had set_exists and unset_exists macros backwards.
2786 * Released nmh-0.11.
2788 Thu Apr 10 02:39:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2790 * Added documentation to mh-profile.man about the various
2791 `procs' (mhlproc, showproc, lproc, etc...).
2793 * Replace the bit twiddling for SELECTED, UNSEEN, and
2794 mp->attrstats with macros.
2796 * If system doesn't have SIGEMT (like Linux), then use SIGTERM
2799 * Change fstat to stat in m_gmsg.c since Linux wants
2802 * Merge Linux patch sent in by Michel Oosterhof (original
2803 patch from bsa@kf8nh.wariat.org).
2805 * Document an undocumented MH feature. mhn -form mhl.null
2806 will suppress the display of the message header.
2808 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
2810 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c
2811 and mshcmds.c, rather than hard coding in /bin/cat.
2813 * Add mhnproc to the list of `procs' in mh-profile.man.
2815 * Add configure test for lorder and tsort commands.
2817 * Commented out the padding in the `msgs` struct in h/mh.h
2819 * Change m_gmsg.c to allocate elements to the `info' array by
2820 500 elements at a time (rather than MAXFOLDERS / 5).
2822 * Add note to man page for mhmail that zero length messages are
2823 not sent. Need to use -body "" to send empty messages.
2825 * zotnet/mts/mts.c : compare character with '\0', not NULL.
2827 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
2829 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
2830 folder/message structure when done with folder.
2832 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is
2833 defined even if message is missing "From " line.
2835 Mon Mar 31 03:37:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2837 * Released nmh-0.10.
2839 Sun Mar 30 21:46:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2841 * Add configure check for <locale.h>. Turn on LOCALE support
2844 Thu Mar 20 03:21:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2846 * Reversed previous decision to retain "From " lines in slocal.
2847 The "From " line is now removed from all messages.
2849 * inc now saves the date from the "From " envelope in the
2850 Delivery-Date header for all messages.
2852 * sbr/m_getfld.c: Clean up processing of Return-Path and
2853 Delivery-Date from the "From " envelope.
2855 Mon Mar 17 19:03:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2857 * client.c: cast iaddr to int before comparing return value
2858 of inet_addr with NOTOK.
2860 Tue Mar 11 04:38:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2862 * Grep test for signal names was failing on some OS'es because
2863 of missing tabs in regex.
2865 Sat Mar 8 01:58:22 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2867 * Released nmh-0.09.
2869 * Move config files and format files to *.old before installing.
2871 * Add configure check for killpg.

2883 Tue Mar 4 03:10:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2885 * ruserpass.c : removed conflicting prototypes.
2887 * rcvtty.c : Fixed rcvtty to obey terminal permissions granted
2888 by `mesg' command. Previously only worked on BSD machines.
2890 Mon Mar 3 00:18:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2892 * rcvtty.c : Changed to use #define UTMP_FILE (if exists) rather
2893 than hard coded "/etc/utmp".
2895 * Released nmh-0.08.
2897 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
2898 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of
2899 locking database itself.
2901 Thu Feb 27 05:28:09 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2903 * Added slocal action `mmdf' to deliver to a file in mmdf format.
2905 * Changed the slocal actions `file' and `>' to always deliver in
2906 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
2909 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
2910 rather than mmdf format.
2912 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
2913 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
2914 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
2915 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
2917 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
2919 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2921 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
2924 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2925 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2926 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
2928 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2929 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2930 rcvpack so you can choose the preferred format.
2932 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2934 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
2935 can still easily change this in config.h).
2937 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
2938 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
2939 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
2941 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2943 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather
2944 than tzset and external timezone variable.
2946 Thu Feb 13 00:35:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2948 * Fixed typo in ruserpass.c in the variable toktabs.
2950 * When ruserpass was added to LIBOBJS, it was missing
2953 * Released nmh-0.07.
2955 Tue Feb 11 01:29:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2957 * Add check to configure, so that if ruserpass, or _ruserpass
2958 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
2960 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
2961 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
2964 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
2965 built-in FTP client in mhn.
2967 * Added configure check for ushort and ulong. Change code
2968 to use ushort/ulong rather than u_short/u_long.
2970 * A couple of small cleanups in locking code.
2972 * Added configure check for gmtoff element in struct tm.
2974 * Added configure check for tzset.
2976 Fri Feb 7 03:01:57 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2978 * Released nmh-0.06.
2980 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
2981 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
2983 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
2984 many such machines around anymore.
2986 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
2987 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
2989 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
2990 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
2992 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2994 * Check lex generated file in zotnet/tws and use
2995 pre-generated version if necessary.
2997 * Released nmh-0.05.
2999 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
3000 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
3001 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
3002 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
3004 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
3005 be linked in one pass.
3007 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3009 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
3010 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
3012 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3014 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
3016 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3018 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
3019 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
3020 become the current folder.
3022 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3024 * Released nmh-0.04.
3026 * Define ospeed and PC in termsbr.c is OS doesn't have
3029 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3031 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
3032 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
3033 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
3035 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3037 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
3038 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
3040 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3042 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
3043 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
3046 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
3047 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
3049 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3051 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
3052 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
3053 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
3054 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
3055 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
3056 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
3058 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3060 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
3061 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
3063 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
3064 a file (currently need to specify full path).
3066 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3068 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
3069 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
3071 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3073 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
3074 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
3075 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
3077 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3079 * Released nmh-0.03.
3081 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
3082 .mh_sequence file existed.
3084 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
3085 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
3087 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
3088 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
3091 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3093 * Changed flist option -unseen to -[no]all. Cleaned up
3096 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3098 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
3099 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
3100 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
3102 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3104 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
3105 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
3106 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
3108 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3110 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL
3111 and allocate its own buffer. Borrowed from zsh.
3113 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
3115 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3117 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
3118 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
3119 directory from where the source code is located.
3121 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3123 * Released nmh-0.02.
3125 Wed Jan 1 17:41:52 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3127 * Split mhook man page into man pages for rcvdist, rcvpack,
3130 Tue Dec 31 03:07:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3132 * Changed code to use strerror, rather than using sys_errlist
3133 and sys_nerr directly.
3135 Mon Dec 30 02:15:25 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3137 * -compat switch from install-mh removed.
3139 * Changed the default POP port from "pop" to "pop3".
3141 Sat Dec 28 13:25:05 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3143 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
3144 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
3145 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
3146 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
3147 rather than in script.
3149 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3151 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
3153 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with
3154 macro defined on Solaris.
3156 Thu Dec 26 02:50:15 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3158 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
3159 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
3161 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
3162 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
3163 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
3164 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
3167 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3169 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
3170 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.
3172 * Fixed configure test so that termcap variable ospeed is
3175 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3177 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
3179 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included
3180 in mhn.c. Changed md5 to use memset and memcpy.
3182 Fri Dec 20 02:29:37 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3184 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
3185 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
3187 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3189 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
3190 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
3191 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
3192 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
3193 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
3194 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
3196 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3198 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
3200 * Released nmh-0.01.
3202 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
3203 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
3204 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
3207 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3209 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
3212 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3214 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
3215 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
3217 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3219 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
3220 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
3221 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
3222 script to find_program.
3224 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3226 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
3227 speed up -recurse option.
3229 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
3230 yet, but it compiles :-)
3232 * Changed default location for install to
3233 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
3234 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
3235 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
3238 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
3239 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
3240 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
