1 2008-08-03 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
3 * sbr/fmt_compile.c: when doing an if-test on the result
4 of a function which returns a string result, check whether
5 the string is non-empty (as the documentation says we do).
6 Previously we were always testing the integer 'value'. Bug
7 spotted by Eric Gillespie.
8 * test/tests/repl/test-if-str: test case for this bug.
10 2008-07-24 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
12 * test/setup-test: Run 'make clean' before building
14 2008-07-24 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
16 * test/runtest: cat test-temp-dir only once. Destroy and create
17 test Mail hierarchy here, so each test has its own independent
20 * test/setup-test: Drop needless pushd/popd, which don't exist in
21 sh anyway. Don't use aclocal, which is part of automake.
22 Don't create Mail hierarchy here (see test/runtest).
24 * test/tests/folder/test-create, tests/folder/test-total: Drop
27 * tests/pick/test-pick: Remove failing no-op test.
29 * test/tests/scan/test-scan: Write expected and actual output to
30 files and diff them. This way, if the output differs, diff
31 provides the FAILing exit code and shows the differences.
33 2008-06-12 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
34 * man/repl.man, etc/mhl.reply:
35 Add an attribution line when replying to messages.
37 2008-06-02 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
39 * h/mh.h, h/prototypes.h, sbr/done.c, uip/inc.c,
40 uip/mhbuild.c, uip/mhlist.c, uip/mhn.c, uip/mhshow.c,
41 uip/mhstore.c, uip/mhtest.c, uip/packf.c, uip/pick.c,
42 uip/rcvdist.c, uip/rcvstore.c, uip/sendsbr.c: when
43 building on gcc, use the noreturn attribute on various
44 functions (should improve code and avoid some spurious
45 'uninitialized variable' warnings).
47 2008-06-01 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
49 * docs/README.developers: update the bits about doing a
50 release announcement, now I've actually done one.
52 2008-05-22 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
54 * uip/scansbr.c: don't use MB_CUR_MAX if we aren't compiled
55 with multibyte support.
57 * uip/whatnowsbr.c: factor out common code for writing ls
58 shell command, and make it do more sensible buffer length
59 checks. Also avoid relying on the return value of sprintf(),
60 as some old systems don't return number of characters written.
62 2008-05-21 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
64 * sbr/utils.c (mh_xrealloc): don't assume realloc() can
65 handle NULL pointers; some non-POSIX realloc()s can't.
67 * sbr/dtimep.lex: add some table size declarations for the
68 benefit of elderly lexes with small defaults.
70 2008-05-18 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
72 * sbr/addrsbr.c: removed "err" from conditional, because gcc
73 correctly warned that it would always evaluate as true. It's
74 the address of a static array.
76 2008-05-16 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
78 * sbr/Makefile.in, config/Makefile.in: Don't use $< in target rules
79 in makefiles, as POSIX says it's only defined in inference rules.
81 2008-05-13 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
83 * configure.in, INSTALL: if --enable-masquerade is not
84 specified to configure, enable all supported masquerade forms.
85 This allows users to masquerade with the default
86 configuration. That seems to be more worthwhile now than
87 trying to prevent users from using it, especially with
88 single-user installations or those where a user can edit
91 2008-05-04 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
93 * bug #23167: sbr/ruserpass.c (ruserpass): make bad permissions
94 on .netrc be an instantly fatal error. Previously we returned
95 an error value; however, no caller was checking it. So now
96 ruserpass() has a void return type.
98 * bug #23163: various minor fixes for the benefit of
99 older Unixes (specifically SunOS 4):
100 reintroduce strerror() substitute implementation
101 provide memmove() substitute implementation
103 * bug #23163: fix accidentally broken 'build outside
104 source directory' feature
106 * bug #23162: sbr/dtime.c: fix stray HAVE_TM_GMTOFF that
107 wasn't updated to the new macro name.
109 2008-04-30 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
111 * mts/smtp/smtp.c: provide a callback for SASL_CB_AUTHNAME
112 (fixes issue with SASL sending the wrong username in some
113 circumstances). Thanks to <der_wachtmeister@freenet.de>
116 2008-04-29 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
118 * Revert previous attempt at fix for SASL issue as it
119 is the wrong approach.
121 * Fix in correct manner, by making sm_rrecord() and thus
122 sm_hear() set the length of the reply string correctly
123 (the SASL libraries now care if you pass in the wrong
126 * Correct various places in smtp.c where the reply string
127 might not have been correctly NUL-terminated. Includes a
128 fix for a particularly nasty and long standing screwup
129 where the buffer length counting in smhear() was totally
130 broken for continued lines from the server.
132 2008-04-29 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
134 * Cope with sasl_decode64() returning SASL_CONTINUE, as
135 happens with newer sasl libraries and LOGIN auth.
137 2008-04-27 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
139 * Updated some of the 'how to do a release' documentation.
141 * Upped the VERSION string to '1.3-dev', since 1.3-RC1 has
144 2008-04-27 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
146 * Released nmh-1.3 RC1.
148 2008-04-11 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
150 * acconfig.h, configure.in, sbr/dtime.c, sbr/pidwait.c,
151 uip/mhshowsbr.c, uip/rcvtty.c, uip/slocal.c, uip/termsbr.c:
152 move most remaining macros out of acconfig.h which is an
153 obsolete feature of autoconf
155 2008-04-05 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
157 * bug #18655: fix use of admonish() for a fatal error (should
158 be adios(); only actual effect would be wrong exit code).
159 Thanks to Craig Leres for spotting this.
161 2008-04-05 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
163 * bug #20028 (Debian bug 399271): fix code assuming that pointer
164 differences were 32 bits -- thanks to Dean Gaudet for the patch.
166 2008-01-25 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
168 * uip/mhshowsbr.c (show_all_messages): Be more generous when parsing
171 2007-11-04 Joel Reicher <joel@panacea.null.org>
173 * Changed done() link overriding to function pointer. Return type
174 is now void so that exit() can be used as done() callback. Dead
175 code return from all done()s removed, with return 1 in main()
176 following done() (should never be reached).
178 2007-08-21 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
180 * Red Hat Bug #253342: inc.c, utils.c, utils.h: When inc is run with
181 the -silent flag, don't exit(1) for no apparent reason.
183 2007-03-12 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
185 * bug #18630, #18631, #18632, #18634: various patches from
186 Craig Leres fixing error message argument problems.
188 2007-03-12 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
190 * bug #15212: configure.in, acconfig.h: remove configure test for
191 broken AT&T vi. This test was broken (it was always returning
192 failure even for non-broken vi implementations) and
193 unfixable. Nobody should be using AT&T vi any more so I have
194 simply moved it back to being a setting you can put manually into
195 acconfig.h if you must.
197 2006-10-24 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
199 * uip/sendsbr.c: with attachformat values of 1 or 2, add
200 name= portion to Content-Type header. This makes them
201 consistent with attachformat value 0. And it allows mhstore
202 to use that (file)name when extracting attachments.
204 2006-08-26 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
206 * configure.in: If we're not using dotlocking, there is no need to set
209 2006-03-30 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
211 * uip/sendsbr.c: with attachformat values of 1 or 2, only
212 generate Content-Disposition headers for MIME attachments, not
213 for the message contents themselves. Microsoft Outlook Build
214 10.0.6626, at least, doesn't show the message contents if they
215 have Content-Disposition.
217 2006-03-09 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
219 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c (decode_rfc2047): Don't close the iconv descriptor
222 2006-03-08 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
224 * (mh_strcasecmp): Rename the private strcasecmp function to
225 mh_strcasecmp. This keeps the newer gnu linker happy.
227 2006-03-05 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
229 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c: don't try to malloc 0 bytes if an RFC2047
230 encoded block is empty
232 2006-03-04 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
234 * etc/Makefile.in: use INSTALL_SCRIPT to install scripts;
235 this allows INSTALL_PROGRAM to be set to 'install -s' so
236 binaries are stripped on installation. Apparently the BSDs
239 2006-02-25 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
241 * uip/sendsbr.c: replaced st_mtim with st_mtime, that's what
242 it should have been. Added #include of h/tws.h to pick up
245 2006-02-20 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
247 * h/mh.h, h/prototypes.h, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, uip/send.c,
248 uip/sendsbr.c, uip/viamail.c, uip/whatnowsbr.c, man/send.man:
249 added -attachformat switch to send, to support alternate MIME
250 header contents when using -attach. See send man page for
253 * man/mhbuild.man: wrapped one appearance of "Content-Disposition"
254 with quotes, to be consistent with others.
256 2006-02-20 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
258 * h/utils.h, sbr/utils.c, uip/flist.c, uip/folder.c: Move duplicate
259 function num_digits into utils.c
261 2006-02-19 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
263 * sbr/m_draft.c, sbr/utils.c, uip/folder.c, uip/inc.c,
264 uip/mhstoresbr.c, uip/popi.c, uip/refile.c: Add create_folder()
265 function, replacing duplicate code during folder creation.
267 2006-02-18 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
269 * h/mime.h, h/mhparse.h, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, uip/mhfree.c,
270 man/mhbuild.man, docs/TODO: added support for an optional
271 Content-Disposition header in mhbuild (only). Its contents
272 are supplied between {}, positioned after the optional [], in
273 a mhbuild directive. If the contents do not contain a
274 "filename=" parameter, and the directive has a filename, or
275 something else that ends with "name=", then that will be used
276 to add a "filename=" parameter to the header.
278 2006-02-12 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
280 * docs/TODO: added RFC2183 to reference of RFC1806 for
281 Content-Disposition header.
283 2006-01-31 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
285 * uip/mhbuild.c, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, man/mhbuild.man: added
286 -nocontentid switch, to disable generation of Content-ID:
287 header in MIME messages. (Also added -contentid for
288 symmetry.) The default configuration of Microsoft Outlook,
289 Build 10.0.3416 in particular, doesn't see attachments in
290 incoming messages if there are Content-ID headers, see
291 http://home.cwru.edu/~wrv/eudoraoutlookfix.html. This allows
292 users to easily accomodate that by adding
293 mhbuild: -nocontentid to their .mh_profile.
295 2006-01-29 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
297 * bug 4360: uip/replsbr.c: remove trailing newlines from components
298 to fix bug with spaces at the end of Subject/References in replies
300 2006-01-18 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
302 * configure.in: use AS_HELP_STRING for formatting help messages
304 * configure.in, sbr/fmt_scan.c: add autoconf magic to support
305 old systems that don't support multibyte character sets
307 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: fix bug with insertion of newline being wrong if
308 the num function was used at the end of the format buffer
310 2006-01-17 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
312 * uip/post.c, uip/spost.c: in make_bcc_file (), use same
313 logic as in finish_headers () to detect whether there is an
314 existing From: line in the draft. If draft_from masquerade
315 flag is enabled, this allows the From: to be obeyed in the
316 Bcc, instead of the old behavior of always replacing it with
319 2006-01-17 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
321 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: more robust multi-byte/column support for field
322 widths, restoring right justification feature
324 2006-01-16 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
326 * h/aliasbr.h, h/rcvmail.h, man/Makefile.in, man/slocal.man,
327 sbr/lock_file.c, uip/aliasbr.c, uip/dropsbr.c, uip/post.c,
328 uip/slocal.c, man/mh-mts.man: remove remnants of code for MMDF
330 * uip/scansbr.c: multiply buffer size by MB_CUR_MAX so multi-byte
333 2006-01-14 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
335 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: Turn the PUTSF macro into a function capable of
336 handling multi column characters.
338 2006-01-07 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
340 * Remove sbr/strerror.c -- strerror(3) is defined in C89.
342 2006-01-06 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
344 * patch #3968: Move the add() function from its own file (add.c) and
345 into utils.c. There was also a duplicate add() function in mf.c which
348 2006-01-02 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
350 * Remove sbr/pwd.c file, moving the pwd() function into sbr/utils.c.
352 2006-01-01 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
354 * patch #3967: Create a mh_xrealloc function to prevent mistakes when
357 2006-01-01 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
359 * patch #3966: Create a mh_xmalloc function to prevent mistakes when
362 2005-12-24 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
364 * Bug #15285: Don't use $< in target rules in makefiles, as POSIX
365 says it's only defined in inference rules. (BSD make was expanding
366 $< to the empty string in the rule for building sbr/dtimep.c, which
367 causes lex to apparently hang because it's reading from stdin.)
369 2005-12-24 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
371 * Completely redo db library checking -- we now check for working
372 (include file, library) pairs rather than checking for headers and
373 libraries separately. We also now provide --with-ndbm=lib and
374 --with-ndbmheader=header options to configure to handle situations
375 where configure's autodetection fails.
377 2005-12-21 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
379 * Fix stupid accidental dependence on a bash quirk in previous
380 configure script change.
382 2005-12-15 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
384 * Improve checking for Berkeley db libraries: configure should now
385 find a suitable library on systems with new gdbm where
386 compatibility functions are in the gdbm_compat library, and on
389 2005-12-13 Michael Forrest <mef@computer.org>
391 * Fedora Bug #163760: sbr/context_read.c (context_read): Ensure that
392 the context is only read once.
394 2005-12-12 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
396 * uip/sendsbr.c (annoaux): Fix the call to annotate() fixing a bug
397 which prevented repl from properly annotating messages.
399 2005-12-07 Jon Steinhart <nmh@fourwinds.com>
401 * Fixed a bug where anno -append put the headers in the wrong place
402 if applied to a message that didn't contain any headers.
404 * Added a special value of "all" to the -number option that causes
405 anno -delete to delete all matching components instead of just
408 * Added new -preserve and -nopreserve options. Using -preserve
409 retains the original last accessed and last modified times on
412 2005-12-05 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
414 * Fedora Bug #174983: configure.in: Fix the AC_PATH_PROG default when
415 vi isn't found during build.
417 2005-11-19 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
419 * bug #14977: sbr/context_read.c: special case an MHCONTEXT of
420 "/dev/null" and don't try to lock it.
422 * bug #9228, debian bug #146449: man/mh-profile.man: make it clearer
423 that lower case environment variables (and in particular mheditor)
424 are internal to nmh and not intended to be set by the user.
426 2005-11-09 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
428 * sbr/mf.c: fix buffer overrun with absurdly long addresses
429 (only causes crashes if scan is run with '-width 16536' or similar)
431 * bug #7917: sbr/context_foil.c, sbr/context_read.c,
432 sbr/context_save.c: mark 'no context' with NULL rather than
433 "/dev/null" so we don't inadvertently try to lock /dev/null (which
434 takes up to a minute in some locking configurations and makes post
437 * patch #3913: uip/post.c: pass some globals into sm_init() so that
438 it uses SASL if necessary. (This bug was preventing Bcc'd emails
439 from being sent via SASL authenticated SMTP.)
441 * bug #9813: uip/rmf.c: don't crash if there's no Current-Folder
442 entry in the context file.
444 2005-11-13 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
446 * bug #7833: uip/Makefile.in: remove link to install-mh that caused
447 problems on some systems
449 * bug #739: Makefile.in: install target now depends on all to avoid
450 problem on case-insensitive file systems with the INSTALL file
452 2005-11-10 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
454 * Fedora Bug #172838: configure.in: Fix the AC_PATH_PROG default when
455 sendmail isn't found during build.
457 2005-11-09 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
459 * h/aliasbr.h: fix a non-ANSI prototype.
461 2005-11-08 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
463 * Simon Burge: acconfig.h, configure.in, uip/rcvtty.c, uip/slocal.c:
464 fix to handle getutent() on NetBSD
466 * INSTALL, README, docs/README.about, man/nmh.man: update most
467 references to the web page and mailing list locations
469 * bug #10230: etc/Makefile.in, man/Makefile.in, uip/Makefile.in:
470 Michael De La Rue: prepend DESTDIR to install locations
472 * configure.in, */Makefile.in, mts/smtp/smtp.c: replace obsolete
475 2005-11-06 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
477 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, sbr/fmt_scan.c, h/prototypes.h: fix various
478 possible overruns of the buffers in fmt_scan() which would cause
479 crashes if scan was run with '-width 16536' or similar.
481 * uip/popsbr.c: fix compile error which only showed up if nmh
482 was configured with --enable-apop.
484 * Debian Bug# 245932, RedHat Bug# 172388: uip/mhparse.c: don't
485 crash when handling a multipart MIME message with an invalid
486 Content-Type header (file handle was being fclose()d twice).
488 * sbr/Makefile.in: adjust lex command to work on both old and
489 new versions of flex.
491 * configure.in: add an AC_PREREQ() so autoconf 2.13 gives a helpful
492 error message and the Debian autoconf-version-guessing wrapper
493 doesn't guess wrongly.
495 2005-11-02 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
497 * Debian Bug# 320069: Nick Rusnov: uip/popsbr.c: fail when
498 kpop connection attempted without KPOP support compiled in
500 * Debian Bug# 320090: Nick Rusnov: sbr/Makefile.in: fix for newer
501 version of flex and remove autogenerated file from cvs
503 * patch #1155: uip/flist.c: speed up flist by skipping stat on
504 files with numbers as names
506 * docs/Makefile.in: include new files in distribution
508 2005-10-11 Bill Wohler <wohler@newt.com>
510 * docs/FAQ: fold questions into MH FAQ and distribute that instead
512 2005-10-05 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
514 * Harald Geyer: h/mh.h, uip/replsbr.c: back out previous change
515 (fork/vfork) and replace with code that handles the issue directly
517 2005-05-18 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
519 * Debian Bug# 143485: Nick Rusnov: h/mh.h: use fork instead of
522 * Debian Bug# 261592: Harald Geyer: uip/mhlsbr.c, uip/replsbr.c:
523 test/report error writing to stdout
525 * mts/smtp/smtp.c, uip/popsbr.c: correct SASL include file locations
527 * docs/COMPLETION-BASH: bash completion definitions from Debian
529 * patch #2863: savannah@brisammon.fastmail.fm: sbr/folder_read.c:
530 fix a bug affecting AFS where nmh was setting the READONLY flag
531 for a folder even when you do have write access to the folder
533 * Carl Mummert: h/fmt_compile.h, man/mh-format.man,
534 sbr/fmt_compile.c, sbr/fmt_scan.c: add unquote() function for
535 removing quotes from RFC-2822 encoded headers
537 2005-02-23 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
539 * use iconv to convert RFC-2047 encoded headers to the
540 character set used by the current locale
542 * sbr/folder_read.c fix Debian bug #202667: crash when a
543 message's filename overflows an int when converted
545 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
546 versions (from automake 1.9.5)
548 2005-02-21 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
550 * sbr/getpass.c fix bug where inc crashed on failing to reopen
553 2005-01-27 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
555 * Added -proxy option to inc and msgchk. Based on old patch
556 from Michael Richardson.
558 * On systems where it is available, use nl_langinfo to get the
559 character set if MM_CHARSET is unset
561 2005-01-21 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
563 * sbr/check_charset.c US-ASCII is a subset of UTF-8 so can be
564 handled directly when UTF-8 is being used
566 2004-12-17 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
568 * uip/mhmisc.c Fix -part option to mhshow/mhlist/mhstore to
569 find sub-parts of the specified part
571 2004-11-19 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
573 * h/prototypes.h, sbr/folder_addmsg.c, uip/mhstoresbr.c,
574 uip/rcvstore.c, uip/refile.c: Added mail directory argument to
575 folder_addmsg in order to make it possible to provide a path to
576 the ext_hook call that is mailpath-based. A problem existed when
577 a folder was a symbolic link and the pwd call would return the
578 path relative to the filesystem, not to mailpath. A new argument
579 was needed because there was otherwise no reasonable way to get
582 2004-11-16 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
584 * sbr/folder_pack.c: Fixed problem where the refile hook was being
585 called after a message was renamed so that it wasn't around for
586 the hook. The hook is now called before the message file is
589 * sbr/folder_addmsg.c: Fixed wrong directory for hook when
590 refiling with -src option.
592 2004-10-15 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
594 * uip/sortm.c: Fixed calling of external hooks.
596 2004-10-12 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
598 * uip/inc.c: Fixed another weird bug caused by the static
599 mailpath being overwritten.
601 * uip/sendsbr.c: Fixed bug that caused anno to mangle headers.
603 * sbr/lock_file.c: Fixed strange bug that prevented a lock from
604 ever being obtained if getting it failed the first time. The
605 problem was that the string of XXXXXX that is required by
606 mkstemp() was overwritten the first time through, and so all
607 subsequent times failed because mkstemp() failed. The fix
608 reinitializes the tmp file string.
610 * uip/inc.c: Fixed bug in which the static maildir was overwritted
611 if a format string was read from the profile.
613 * sbr/folder_delmsgs.c: Fixed bug that was producing an incorrect
614 path for the external hook.
616 2003-10-06 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
618 * uip/slocal.c, configure.in: db configuration fix for Debian; yet
619 another location for ndbm.
621 2003-09-30 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
623 * Fix 'pick' so handling of options "-list" and "-seq" are
625 * Fix 'inc' realloc error when bringing in more than 100 msgs
627 * Patches submitted by Nick Rusnov from Debian archive applied:
630 136976 - Handle binary content messages
631 143427 - mh-format.man typo
632 144098 - 'spost; should have same behavior as 'post'
633 w.r.t. mts.conf masquerade line
634 149745 - slocal ignores 'N' result of previous command
635 152728 - increase SMTP timeouts to conform to RFC 1123
636 The timeouts suggested by the RFC seem long
637 to me - but the RFC is still listed as active.
638 181867 - typo for nmh.man
640 2003-08-10 Jeffrey C Honig <jch@honig.net>
642 * Fix problem where parsing of address/date fields in fmt_compile
643 is optimized to the first instance. The first instance may be in
644 contitional code which will result in cached data to
645 be used. Instead, convert c_flags to a flags field from a boolean
646 and parse on the first use.
647 * Remove some unused flag bits.
649 Fri Jul 01 22:02:00 2003 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
651 * Applied fixes for configuration problems with Solaris and
652 systems with gdbm instead of db1 (includes bug #2024)
654 #578 - repl leaks umask
655 #1393 - sortm core dumps
656 #1650 - msh leaks file descriptors
657 #1730 - Double free() in mhfree.c:free_encoding()
658 #3356 - In-Reply-To header in default replcomps should be
660 * Revised man page for mh-format (bug #2031)
661 * New replcomps, etc, with Fcc: +outbox in default versions
663 Sat Mar 17 03:18:15 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
665 * Ken Hornstein's configure.in Cyrus SASL checks were doing
666 `x"$with_cyrus_sasl" != "no"' instead of `... != x"no"'.
668 Tue Mar 06 21:04:27 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
670 * Found some historical information about MH in RFC 808.
671 Supplemented it with info from Jerry Peek's MH book and added it
672 to docs/README.about.
674 Tue Feb 6 20:35:40 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
676 * sbr/dtime.c Use the same Y2K correction code as dtimep.lex
678 * sbr/dtimep.lex Restrict the parser to accept either
679 a numerical timezone offset, or a symbolic one (e.g. EST),
680 but not both (Since "2000 -400 EDT" might cause a double
681 subtraction of 60 minutes if both are parsed. One should be
684 Mon Feb 05 20:22:54 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
686 * -L isn't sufficient for specifying the path of the Cyrus SASL
687 shared library. That'll allow us to link successfully, but on
688 many/most OSes that won't allow us to find libsasl at runtime. On
689 Solaris, we need to specify the library path with -R as well (or
690 else the user will have to use the $LD_LIBRARY_PATH kludge, which
691 is considered harmful). This fix should be extended to other OSes
694 * Print whether we have SASL support in the "nmh configuration"
695 summary configure prints out.
697 * Say in README.developers to use `\date' in case anyone is like
698 me and has `date' aliased in their shell to use a nonstandard (but
699 subjectively more readable) format.
701 Thu Jan 25 21:15:52 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
703 * man/mh-chart.man has updated synposes of
706 Tue Jan 23 20:26:15 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
708 * etc/digestcomps tried to force dates into a
709 19xx when it's not necessary.
711 Fri Jan 19 21:22:08 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
713 * First round of manpage updates finished. They
714 are standardized on -man macros, with minimal
717 * man/tmac.h.in is no longer needed, since the
718 manpages do not depend on them anymore. Note:
719 strict "man" programs that didn't allow ".so"
720 sourcing outside the man tree will now format
721 the man pages correctly.
723 * man/vmh.1 is no longer built, since uip/vmh isn't
725 Tue Jan 9 6:01:22 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
727 * Finished manpages ali-prev
729 * Removed deprecated files from the repository.
730 Specifically, those rooted in zotnet/ and mts/sendmail
731 mts/mmdf. "cvs update -dP" will give a pruned directory
734 * Updated docs/Makefile.in to include README.manpages, and
735 uip/Makefile.in to include popi.c (which isn't being built,
736 though). This allows "make nmhdist" to create an archive that
737 is file-for-file identical to the current cvs repository.
739 Sun Dec 31 20:48:50 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
741 * Create docs/README.manpages, which details
742 the formatting rules I've been using.
746 Sat Dec 30 9:50:13 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
748 * Created a new file "DATE" to hold the date
749 of the most recent nmh release. This date will be
750 used in the manpages.
752 * Updated docs/README.developers to add the step
753 of updating DATE. Also, updated configure to
754 read in the contents of the file as the variable
757 * Started work on updating man pages, with only
758 ali finished so far. Changes: 1) no dependence
759 on an external macro file, 2) uses only
760 -man macros (although I may be mistaken in this),
761 3) syntax in the SYNOPSIS is a little more
762 in line with standard UNIX documentation, such as
763 bold flags and italicized parameters.
765 Sun Dec 24 10:06:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
767 * Updated INSTALL with information about the
768 --with-locking option.
770 * Fixed the Hesiod tests in configure.in. In
771 systems where res_send was in -lresolv, this
772 information was not being communicated to the
773 HESIOD_LIBS var. Now, if res_send is not found
774 in the default libraries, it's assumed to be
775 in -lresolv, and thus -lresolv is appended to
776 HESIOD_LIBS, which will need that to avoid
777 undefined symbols problems.
779 * Fixed the Kerberos tests in configure.in. New
780 versions of Kerberos 5 have renamed -lcrypto
781 to -lk5crypto (circa krb5 1.1 or thereabouts). The
782 new test tries to determine if -lk5crypto exists. If so,
783 this is a new krb5 system. If not, test for -lcrypto
784 and the rest of old krb5. If that fails, look
785 for a genuine krb4 installation.
787 Fri Dec 22 22:08:51 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
789 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in msgchk.man.
790 -snoop was documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
792 Fri Dec 22 23:42:16 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
794 * Made a new ./configure option called
795 "--with-locking" that allows the file
796 locking mechanism to be chosen there instead of
797 requiring a manual edit of config.h.
799 * If the option is not explicitly set, or an
800 invalid option is specified, "dot" locking is
801 chosen. Valid options are "dot", "fcntl",
802 "flock", and "lockf". We need a way to tell
803 the user that these are the valid options, and
804 change the flag "--with-locking" if it's not
807 Fri Dec 22 19:21:29 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
809 * Remove the lex-specific memory hints at the
810 beginning of sbr/dtimep.lex. We've already
811 committed to supporting flex only, since
812 lex does not easily allow us to parse a single
813 string, as well as other problems documented
814 below and on nmh-workers.
816 * Added a switch statement to configure.in to
817 test for Mac OS X. If this is the case, LDFLAGS
818 should not contain "-s" since the linker rejects
821 * Updated MACHINES to include Mac OS X Public Beta,
822 as well as Linux 2.4 running glibc 2.2.
824 Wed Dec 20 16:00:46 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
826 * Marked deprecated directories in docs/README.developers
827 as deprecated, with pointers to the new code location.
828 Eventually these deprecated directories should go away.
830 Tue Dec 19 19:16:37 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
832 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in inc.man. -snoop was
833 documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
835 Thu Dec 14 14:32:09 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
837 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
838 versions on ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/config, dated
839 12-07-00. This should prevent configure from failing
840 on newer operating systems because config.{guess,sub}
841 couldn't correctly identify them.
843 Thu Dec 14 1:30:44 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
845 * Fixed the circular dependency created when I moved
846 zotnet/mts to mts/generic and merged them into libmts.
847 mts/generic/client.c and mts/generic/mts.c are now in sbr/
848 (and thus in libmh), which makes libmh self-contained and
849 not depending on an external archive.
851 * All include statements now look for mts.h in h/. The
852 Makefiles and configure script have been modified so that
853 mts/generic is no longer built.
855 Mon Dec 11 22:08:07 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
857 * When Shantonu made the new libmts.a, he swapped $(MTSLIB) and
858 libmh.a in sbr/Makefile.in so that libmh.a comes first, but this
859 causes the build to fail on Solaris, because libmts.a has to get
860 ruserpass() out of libmh.a. Swapping them back to the way Ken
861 Hornstein's patch (which I applied on Jul 20) put them, with
862 libmh.a correctly coming second. If there are times when libmts.a
863 needs to come second, then it would appear there's a circular
864 dependency and someone (Shantonu?) did an mts merge incorrectly.
866 Fri Sep 8 01:36:23 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
868 * Took out bad time textual time zones like BST and JST.
869 I found them online somewhere, but am not sure if they're
872 Fri Sep 8 00:36:48 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
874 * Moved zotnet/mts to mts/generic. This code reorganization
875 makes the entire zotnet tree deprecated -- bboards is unneeded,
876 mf was was moved to sbr, tws was rewritten and moved to sbr, and
879 * Created a new static library called libmts.a used during
880 compilation which includes the generic mts code and the
881 smtp/sendmail code. This supercedes the functionality of the
882 old libsmtp.a and the remains of libzot.a.
884 * Updated header includes to reference the new location of mts.h
885 in mts/generic/mts.h. Also, update the configure and top-level
886 Makefile not to descend into zotnet. Also, they don't descend
887 into mts/mmdf and mts/sendmail (the sendmail code has been
888 merged into the smtp code).
890 * Added #include <h/nmh.h> to h/md5.h, since my compile was
891 complaining about implicitly-declared memcpy and memset, which
892 appear to be in strings.h. In any event, nmh.h should take care
895 * When doing a "make nmhdist", notice that the generated
896 snapshot does not include zotnet of the mts directories as noted
897 above. Since they are no longer compiled, and I don't see any
898 obvious code path to get to them, end-users should probably
899 not need them. If you think otherwise, turn Makefile generation
900 back on in configure.in and turn on recursion into those dirs
901 in the appropriate Makefile.in
903 Wed Sep 6 22:40:03 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
905 * Tracked down the problem in the new dtimep where time
906 zones were being radically misreported. It was because the
907 parser knew about military time zones (such as M or E) but in
908 some cases did not know about the textual representation of
909 some zones (like MET). When it encountered one of these, the
910 date parser misread MET as the military time zone T (well, first
911 zone M, then E, and finally T). I took military zones out, and
912 things seem much better. Also, the default behavior of parsing
913 time zones appears to default to GMT in the absence of better
914 info, which is less bogus than assuming the mail came from the
915 current time zone, which was the behavior in 1.04.
917 Thu Aug 10 13:22:13 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
919 * Decided that limiting the message number columns to 3 on my
920 scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD (to try to regain space taken by
921 extra date info) was ill-conceived. It's not that tough to get
922 past 999 messages, though I imagine it's rather rare to exceed
923 9999. Changed these to 4. Also put the "replied / encrypted"
924 column back in YYYYMMDD -- I've never seen it show anything but a
925 space, but that space is useful if you use scan, grep, and awk
926 (with the default field separator) to grab message numbers (I know
927 -- pick should really be used for these purposes...).
929 Mon Aug 7 20:11:09 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
931 * Modify umask set by mhshow to enable user execute bit, so that
932 viewers that create temporary directories (e.g., lynx) will be
935 Thu Aug 03 17:14:08 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
937 * TODO: Allow multiple simultaneous differing contexts, probably
938 each tied to a parent (terminal) process.
940 Tue Aug 1 10:48:05 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
942 * Makefile install rules should not look for generated files in
943 the source tree -- this will happen to work when configuring and
944 building inside the source tree but will fail when using an
945 external build tree. Fixed etc/Makefile.in.
947 Mon Jul 24 16:20:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
949 * When Shantonu wrote the new, more portable dtimep.lex, he left
950 out the #ifdef DSTXXX stuff for some reason. Not a good idea, as
951 that code is required for proper printing of numeric-offset
952 timezones that have daylight saving time. Without that code,
953 -0700 during DST gets printed as MST instead of PDT.
955 * Renamed DSTXXX as ADJUST_NUMERIC_ONLY_TZ_OFFSETS_WRT_DST and
956 added an explanatory comment by its #definition.
958 * Updated README.developers with the fact that zotnet/tws is going away.
960 Thu Jul 20 20:30:52 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
962 * Moved Kimmo's new "--with-hash-backup" to be output with the
963 rest of the --with options in the configure --help output. Also,
964 people did not preserve my alphabetization of the --with options
965 when they added new ones. Re-alphabetized.
967 * One more pass at README.developers now that it's clear that my
968 previously-suggested one-line autoconf-file commit can cause
969 unnecessary local makes and an out-of-sync stamp-h.in file, but
970 would not cause problems for other people using the CVS files.
972 * Ken Hornstein's SASL patch was not integrated properly with
973 Ruud's new merged mts/sendmail code. Kimmo has since fixed nmh so
974 it compiles, but according to Ken, the SASL stuff still does not
975 work. Integrating a patch from him for this.
977 * Last pass at README.developers -- Kimmo's 5-step commit was
978 overkill. You only need 3 steps, since configure.in is the only
979 autoconf file with the RCS $Id keyword.
981 * Applied Kurt J. Lidl <lidl@eng.us.uu.net>'s $MAILHOST patch:
983 I have a small patch that would be nice to be included --
984 basically, it allows the usage of the "MAILHOST" environment
985 variable, without having to have HESIOD turned on. I need
986 this functionality for my environment, where we have identical
987 /usr/local on all my machines (so I cannot just hardcode into
988 the mts.conf file), and I have multiple POP mail servers for
991 Modified inc.man to reflect that along with "pophost:" and -host,
992 $MAILHOST can now activate POP mail inclusion as well.
994 * Fixed warnings from diff on first-time install of nmh. Also
995 added 'echo's clarifying the etc file installation activities.
997 Tue Jul 18 19:36:59 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
999 * Added the answer to Dan's question in README.developers.
1001 Mon Jul 17 19:10:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1003 * Clarified and made some corrections to Kimmo's README.developers
1004 changes (BTW, if anyone can explain why the RCS Ids are able to cause
1005 problems with the dependencies, please fill in the explanation --
1006 I never encountered a problem with the old single-commit method).
1008 Sat Jul 15 23:13:49 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
1010 * Add configure option --with-hash-backup so the backup prefix can
1011 be easily changed from "," to "#".
1013 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that it works with any make.
1015 * Use mkstemp in sbr/lock_file.c.
1017 * Commits of autoconf-related files apparently can't all be done
1018 in one shot due to RCS Ids changing when committing -- updated
1021 Tue Jul 11 14:18:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1023 * Clarified post.man and send.man for those not completely up on
1024 SASL terminology. "SASL encryption layers are not supported for
1025 SMTP" means that encryption is supported for the authentication
1026 but not for the subsequent data stream.
1028 Sat Jul 8 01:36:19 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
1030 * Applied Ken Hornstein <kenh@cmf.nrl.navy.mil>'s patches
1031 implementing SASL support for POP3 and SMTP. If nmh is compiled
1032 with SASL support, using the -sasl switch on the inc, msgchk,
1033 post, and send commands will enable authentication encryption for
1034 SMTP, and both authentication and data stream encryption for POP3.
1036 Sat Jun 10 18:37:59 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1038 * Merged mts/sendmail functionality into mts/smtp; switching between
1039 smtp and sendmail delivery method is now controlled by mts.conf.
1041 * If tsort cannot deal with loops, in addition to defining tsort as
1042 cat, also define lorder as echo.
1044 * Removed uip/popi.c from list of sources.
1046 Thu Jun 08 19:36:57 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1048 * New dtimep.lex didn't parse day names properly. Fixed. Also
1049 clarified ambiguous comments preceding day_map[] array (from old
1050 dtimep.lex) that probably led to the erroneous cp++ being added.
1052 Wed Jun 7 20:52:33 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1054 * Added one more mkstemp invocation to uip/spost.c (which was in a
1057 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to clean up permissions handling
1058 and error handling in uip/inc.c.
1060 Mon Jun 5 22:10:07 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1062 * Use cat instead of tsort if tsort cannot deal with loops in its
1063 input (which is the case for tsort from GNU textutils).
1065 Mon Jun 5 21:14:36 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1067 * If lockfile is present, and its dotlockfile program is setgid,
1068 inc does not need to be setgid.
1070 Sun Jun 4 21:35:40 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1072 * Added autoconf test for Miquel van Smoorenburg's liblockfile
1073 library, as found on Debian systems.
1075 * Added liblockfile support to sbr/lock_file.c.
1077 Wed May 31 7:19:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1079 * Fixed up dtimep.lex a bit. Added back memory options for AIX to
1080 increase available memory. Took out %option noyywrap, which
1081 wasn't understood by AT&T lex, as well as the -i
1082 case-insensitivity flag.
1084 Wed May 31 07:40:45 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1086 * Added a lint target to the Makefiles and a check in autoconf
1087 to determine whether lint or lclint exists on the system.
1089 Fri May 30 19:21:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1091 * etc/Makefile.in was incorrectly installing mts.conf.in and
1092 sendfiles.in -- fixed. Generated sendfiles script was not a
1093 dependency of the `all' target, and was incorrectly included in
1094 the distribution. Changed the suffix for the backed-up previous
1095 versions of the etc files from the ambiguous .old to .prev. Added
1096 call to diff -- only keep the .prev files around if different from
1097 the newly-installed versions (intentionally didn't redirect output
1098 to /dev/null so you'll notice when your changed versions are
1099 getting moved aside).
1101 * INSTALL never documented the etc/*.old thing. Documented the
1102 new etc/*.prev thing (including a note to watch for diff output).
1104 * Applied Alec Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu>'s dropsbr.c patch:
1106 In the map_write routine, a call is made to map_open and this
1107 call is supposed to set the "clear" variable to 0 or 1,
1108 depending on whether the map file is empty or not. In
1109 mh6.8.3, this worked because map_open would set "clear" by
1110 calling the mbx_Xopen routine. In nmh, the code for mbx_Xopen
1111 was merged into mbx_open, but the interface for mbx_open
1112 doesn't support the clear variable, so that functionality was
1113 lost. The map_open interface still contains "int *clear" in
1114 the prototype, but never sets it.
1116 My patch eliminates "clear" from the map_open interface (I
1117 checked to make sure that map_write is the only client of
1118 map_open). Furthermore, my patch also sets the "clear"
1119 variable properly at the beginning of map_write by calling
1120 fstat(). This eliminates the bug in that the value of "clear"
1121 being used later in the routine was just stack garbage.
1123 Having a bad value of clear causes this next bug to be
1124 triggered: The fp file pointer was being opened with fdopen,
1125 but in two of the three switch cases it wasn't being closed.
1126 In certain cases, this was causing packf to run out of file
1127 descriptors if you attempted to pack a large folder.
1129 Mon May 29 7:48:15 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1131 * Moved the date parsing routines from zotnet/tws to sbr/ (and
1132 tws.h to h/). Updated all source files to reflect to new location
1135 * Rewrote dparsetime (in dtimep.lex -> dtimep.c) to replace the
1136 old zotnet/tws/dtimep.c, dtimep.lex, lexstring.c, lexedit.c, and
1137 dtimep.c-lexed. It should now work with flex (although untested
1138 with lex), and requires no sed-ing. For now, I have the lexed
1139 version in the distribution, so that end-users don't need to worry
1140 about running it through flex/lex. I have not added back support
1141 for guessing the time zone when it's not specified.
1143 Sun May 28 17:44:15 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1145 * Added autoconf check for getutent().
1147 * Changed uip/rcvtty.c and uip/slocal.c to use getutent() and
1148 friends. Since I can only check on Linux, please check if
1149 this works on other systems.
1151 Sun May 28 14:58:49 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1153 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to uip/scansbr.c for more
1154 checks for write failures.
1156 * Unlink temporary file properly in uip/rcvtty.c.
1158 * Moved viamail from bindir to libdir.
1160 * Changed sendfiles into sendfiles.in, so that path to viamail
1163 * Added gzip support to sendfiles.
1165 * Added References header to replcomps and replgroupcomps.
1167 Sun May 28 14:39:31 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1169 * Fixed m_getfld bug which caused segmentation faults when
1170 incorporating messages which ended in multiple linefeeds crossing
1173 Fri May 26 13:21:59 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1175 * msh has been unable to show MIME messages ever since 1.0. Alec
1176 Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu> tracked down the problem to the
1177 -show flag being passed to mhshow. mhshow is equivalent to the
1178 old mhn -show, so we don't need the -show anymore. Removed it.
1180 Fri May 12 02:51:21 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1182 * zotnet/bboards is not longer built by default. Goal is to move
1183 the assorted functions in zotnet into sbr or some more logical
1186 * Moved zotnet/mf to sbr, and changed mf.h references accordingly,
1187 as well as Makefiles.
1189 Thu May 11 02:21:34 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1191 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that both SRCS and OBJS aren't
1192 seperately and redundantly defined, but so that OBJS is a
1193 pattern-substituted version of SRCS with suffix .c -> .o. This
1194 should make maintainability easier.
1196 * Added section to MACHINES indicating what platforms nmh is known
1197 to compile and work on, just to give users peace of mind, or
1198 something. This is by no means complete or exhaustive, so add
1199 whatever you know works.
1201 Tue May 09 20:38:04 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1203 * Alphabetized Shantonu's $pop_kinds output on configure's "pop is
1204 enabled" line. If POP3 is the only kind of POP enabled, say so,
1205 rather than just saying "yes" (which is ambiguous).
1207 * Fixed four warnings in Shantonu's new getpass.c. Needed to
1208 #include <stdlib.h> for calloc(), <unistd.h> for ttyname(), and
1209 "h/mh.h" for adios(). Also changed ch from char to int to get rid
1210 of "comparison is always 1 due to limited range of data type" on EOF.
1212 * Added steps to README.developers saying to change the version
1213 number to X.Y.Z+dev. Did a little rearranging and changed the FTP
1214 dir from /home/ftp to /var/ftp to reflect Doug's new machine.
1216 * Changed configure.in to use gcc -Wall even without
1217 --enable-debug, to prevent developers compiling optimized from
1218 introducing warnings, and to give end-users a warm, fuzzy feeling
1219 as they (hopefully) see no warnings come out (except perhaps on
1220 the lex output file) even with -Wall.
1222 * Renamed getpass() to nmh_getpass() since the prototype for
1223 getpass() varies from OS to OS, and we want to _always_ use our
1224 version of the function. Fixed all the callers to use
1225 nmh_getpass() and added it to prototypes.h. Semi-arbitrarily
1226 upped MAX_PASSWORD_LEN from 128 to 256. buf was being calloc()'d
1227 and the memory leaked -- should have just been declared as static
1228 char array. Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the
1229 copyright message, as this version has been changed significantly
1230 from the BSD version.
1232 * Added "nmh-local functions to use in preference to OS versions"
1233 section to README.developers (currently just says to use
1234 nmh_getpass() instead of system getpass()).
1236 * Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the copyright message
1237 in ruserpass.c also.
1239 * Added mts.conf.5 page per Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s
1242 This happens on solaris:
1245 windex entry incorrect: mts.conf(5) not found.
1246 No manual entry for mts.conf.
1250 % echo ".so man5/mh-tailor.5" > mts.conf.5
1252 done in the man5 directory. We need to add 'mts.conf.5' as a
1253 reference sourcing mh-tailor.5.
1255 Mon May 08 23:51:55 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1257 * Doug informed me that the way I had restored the "lost" version
1258 histories was wrong, because `cvs checkout's of old versions of
1259 nmh wouldn't work properly. It occurs to me that this could be
1260 fixed by simply deleting those tags in the new-location *,v files,
1261 but oh well. I'm putting everything back to the way Doug
1262 originally had it. To get the old version history for a file that
1263 used to be in the top directory, you'll need to "blindly" do a
1264 `cvs log' there (even though you won't have a local copy of the
1265 file in that directory). `cvs diff' will no longer be able to
1266 diff pre-move versions vs. post-move versions -- you'll have to do
1267 a lot of manual gyrations with `cvs checkout' and then use `diff'.
1269 * I had alphabetized the --configure options in the --help output
1270 awhile back, but Shantonu added --enable-apop just under
1271 --enable-pop. Put it in alphabetical order and clarified what
1272 --enable-apop does vs. --enable-pop and --with-krb4. Also changed
1273 --with-mts help line from "mail transport agent" to "mail
1274 transport agent/service" so the 's' in "mts" doesn't seem to come
1277 * Added two steps to "releasing nmh" in README.developers. After
1278 making the tarball, it's a good idea to diff the tree vs. the CVS
1279 tree to make sure no files got left out, and then to chown the
1280 files so that they're owned by root, preventing a Trojaning attack
1281 by a malicious remote user with a UID matching yours.
1283 * Changed DIFFERENCES to say that RPOP is not currently supported
1284 rather than implying it by saying that APOP, KPOP, and POP[3] are.
1286 Sun May 07 18:16:43 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1288 * Imported NetBSD version of getpass() and made extensive
1289 revisions for compatibility with programs that pipe the password
1290 to stdin, such as exmh.
1292 * Removed tests for system ruserpass() which sometimes gave
1293 phantom positive results. Also, bext to use internal functions if
1294 we ever want to change .netrc format to something else, or access
1297 Sat May 06 08:28:09 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1299 * Restored lost version histories for those moved files by doing a
1300 manual `mv' in the CVSROOT on mhost. CVS badly needs a `cvs mv'
1301 command so that you can move files (without having physical access
1302 to the CVSROOT) without losing versioning. Put MACHINES back at
1303 the top level as it needs to be read before building. Fixed DIST
1304 variable in {.,docs}/Makefile.in to reflect that and to add
1305 missing entry for "INSTALL" file.
1307 Sat May 06 13:13:07 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1309 * Re-cleaned up nmh documentation (by moving things to docs
1310 subdir) and modified Makefile & configure.in to handle the change.
1312 Mon Apr 17 21:28:40 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1314 * Scott Blachowicz pointed out that the configure --help output
1315 for --enable-masquerade was misleading. Clarified.
1317 Mon Apr 17 19:01:00 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1319 * APOP support can be compiled in to inc and msgchk using
1322 * To access an APOP host, specify -apop on the command line
1323 along with any -host or -user option.
1325 Fri Apr 14 23:10:44 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1327 * Upped the version number to 1.0.4+dev until the next nmh release.
1329 * Added a "releasing nmh" section to README.developers, while the
1330 process was fresh in my mind.
1332 Fri Apr 14 18:21:34 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1334 * Added new files README.developers, ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6, and
1335 ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html to DIST target in Makefile.in.
1337 * Released nmh-1.0.4.
1339 Tue Apr 11 21:37:03 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1341 * Applied Brian Campbell <bacam@tardis.ed.ac.uk>'s mhn.defaults.sh
1344 It appears that there shouldn't be quotes around the %s in the
1345 iso-8859-1 charset entry; xterm passes the remaining arguments
1346 to the program, quoting them means that xterm thinks they're
1347 part of the program's name.
1349 This %s isn't the same as the "Insert content subtype" one from
1350 mhshow-show-* -- it doesn't come from MIME headers and is safe not
1353 Sun Apr 09 13:03:59 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1355 * added check in fmt_compile() to handle a single-character
1356 format string. fmt_compile() depends on having an array of
1357 format characters with an empty item at the end. A
1358 single-character format would cause programs using this
1359 function to segfault because the algorithm used to decide on
1360 the length of the array mistakenly created a single-item array
1361 when the format string was one character. This eventually
1362 caused problems when the program attempted to test item+1
1365 Thu Apr 06 21:53:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1367 * Richard Coleman threw out a lot of old MH-specific files in nmh.
1368 Much of the stuff, indeed, is not worth saving, but there are
1369 nuggets that are very worthwhile, and should probably be added
1370 back in. Most important, IMHO, are the MH change logs, as they
1371 can help answer questions like "Why is this code like this?" or
1372 "How long has this been broken?" or "What was this ever used for?"
1374 I've added a new file to the nmh tree called
1375 ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6. It's cobbled together from the
1376 mh-6.8.4/papers/mh*/MHCHANGES files. I've re-ordered the entries
1377 to go from newest at the top to oldest at the bottom to match the
1378 ChangeLog convention. Unfortunately there are no change logs for
1379 versions of MH prior to 3 in the MH tar files available at
1380 <ftp://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/mh>. Also, it appears to me that there
1381 are MH-6.6 changes that aren't documented in the logs.
1383 I've also added ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html. This is
1384 based on mh-6.8.4/papers/changes/mh-changes.ms. The nroff format
1385 and its "catman"-type output are a pain to deal with, but I was
1386 loath to throw away the formatting, so I converted the file to
1387 HTML. The only actual markup in the body are the "<B>" and "<U>"
1388 tags, and "<" and ">" instead of '<' and '>', so it's quite
1389 doable to view the file in plain ASCII mode as well. Note that
1390 some of the changes this file documents as having been made in
1391 MH-6.8.4 may not be present in nmh -- Richard started with 6.8.3
1392 and later put in certain 6.8.4 stuff.
1394 Wed Apr 05 21:09:28 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1396 * Applied Eric Schnoebelen <eric@cirr.com>'s mhshowsbr.c patch
1397 fixing apparent bugs in Dan Winship's new security quoting code:
1399 Since upgrading, I've been getting the following errors
1400 while attempting to process some MIME messages:
1402 (1) Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
1407 (2) line 1/10 (END)Segmentation fault (core dumped)
1409 (2) appears to be due to the testing of an unset pointer in
1410 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux(). (1) appears to be caused by
1411 mis-quoting a filename being handed to the shell in
1412 mhshowsbr.c:show_content_aux().
1414 Resolving the pointer reference issue in
1415 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux() turned up a similar mis-quoting
1416 problem in the routine.
1418 Tue Mar 28 16:17:39 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1420 * Applied Todd.Miller@courtesan.com's patch to dropsbr.c to
1421 prevent core dumping on packf. Here's the note from his message:
1423 Since sizeof(buffer) == sizeof(tmpbuffer) packf will dump
1424 core on a file w/o a From line with a line >= BUFSIZ.
1425 I noticed this because I had a junk file in my mail
1428 Fri Mar 17 11:59:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1430 * wesley.craig@umich.edu did not document his previous KPOP patch,
1431 so I did so, and asked him to check what I wrote. Unfortunately
1432 he didn't notice my misunderstanding of his patch. I wrote that
1433 if you #define POPSERVICE "kpop", inc and msgchk will use KPOP
1434 exclusively, but if you leave it as "pop3", you can use Wesley's
1435 new -kpop switch on a given invocation. Instead, however, -kpop
1436 turned out to be necessary on every invocation, and a KPOP user
1437 complained. Applied Wesley's new patch, which makes things work
1438 like I thought his original patch did. After that, did one more
1439 clarifying pass to the documentation in inc.man and msgchk.man.
1441 Wed Mar 15 18:45:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1443 * When I fixed the long-standing makedir() bugs in January, I had
1444 the code call strtoul(..., 0), which I believed to be safe as all
1445 modes specified as ASCII constants in the nmh code started with a
1446 leading zero (signifying octal), which I did as it would work if
1447 internal constants were ever changed to hex. Unfortunately I was
1448 unaware of the "Folder-Protect:" .mh_profile entry, which
1449 mh-profile.man documents as an octal-only constant, with no
1450 leading zero required. I've changed the strtoul() call to an
1451 atooi() call and removed the misleading leading zeroes on the
1452 ASCII octal constants in the code and man pages. Also changed the
1453 "Folder-Protect:" example in the man page to something more
1454 interesting than a duplication of the default.
1456 * When I added my --enable-masquerade option, you'll note that I
1457 didn't make it --enable-nmh-masquerade. I find the --enable-nmh-*
1458 options too wordy and I'm not sure why Richard went that route.
1459 I've renamed them to just --enable-*, but the old versions will
1460 still work as well (they just aren't advertised).
1462 * Added a line to the "nmh configuration" output saying whether
1465 * Added a new README.developers file. From the file:
1467 This file is intended to provide a few tips for anyone doing
1468 development on nmh. Developers who learn things "the hard
1469 way" about the nmh codebase (as opposed to local info best
1470 encoded in a comment) are encouraged to share their wisdom
1473 Currently the topics are "autoconf files" and "directory structure".
1475 Tue Mar 14 12:41:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1477 * Applied, after some finessing,
1478 Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s --with-smtpservers patch:
1480 Here's a patch that allows you to add
1482 --with-smtpservers=<some.host.name>
1484 to the ./configure command line to set the "servers: " line in
1485 etc/mts.conf. Around here, we use "mailhost" so that all
1486 machines in the current domain just talk to a central machine
1487 and nothing else runs an MTA. Now, I can use
1489 --with-smtpservers=mailhost
1491 instead of having to remember to fix this by hand (and often
1492 forgetting to do so!).
1494 * Inspired by Simon's patch, added an --enable-masquerade option
1495 to configure. It will set the "masquerade:" line of mts.conf.
1496 You may specify a subset of the three types of masquerading, like
1497 --enable-masquerade="draft_from mmailid", or leave off explicit
1498 arguments to enable all three types.
1500 * Alphabetized the --enable and --with options in configure.in and
1501 INSTALL and added documentation of the two new options to the latter.
1503 * Added new dependency for mts.conf: Makefile. If this isn't
1504 done, then when you reconfigure nmh with new values for
1505 --enable-masquerade or --with-smtpservers, you'll fail to get an
1506 updated copy of mts.conf.
1508 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtimep.lex patch:
1510 It seems that some MUA's didn't handle y2k very well - ELM
1511 seems to be one of them, and Ultrix's DXmail (based on MH!).
1512 I've got a few emails this month that look like:
1514 575 Jan 00 Xxxxxx Xxxx 3603 ...
1516 22+ Jan 00 Xxx Xxxxx 1771 ...
1518 The first has "15 Jan 100" as the date and the second has
1519 "19 Jan 00" as the date. The following works around this so
1520 that scan, show, sortm, etc work ok.
1522 I put Simon's patch under the control of a new #define called
1523 FIX_NON_Y2K_COMPLIANT_MUA_DATES. There's some commentary in
1524 acconfig.h about when you might not want to #define it.
1526 * Created new dtimep.c-lexed with Simon's change using dtimep.lex
1527 lexed on Solaris 2.6. Added missing dependency in
1528 zotnet/tws/Makefile.in for dtimep.c: dtimep.c-lexed.
1530 * Added scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD format files.
1532 Mon Mar 13 21:32:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1534 * Applied Sullivan N. Beck <sbeck@cise.ufl.edu>'s mhshow-suffix patch:
1536 With the patch below, you can add lines like:
1538 mhshow-suffix-application/msword: .doc
1539 mhshow-suffix-application/PostScript: .ps
1541 to the mhn.defaults file to append the given suffix to a
1542 scratch file. This allows applications which require a
1543 certain suffix to run properly.
1545 * Removed -force_html from lynx entry in mhn.defaults.sh (I
1546 believe older versions of lynx lack that option) and added
1547 "mhshow-suffix-text/html: .html".
1549 * Modified username_extension masquerading to only use the
1550 extended address on generated [Resent-]From: lines and SMTP
1551 envelope From:. With Neil's original implementation, nmh's global
1552 idea of the username was changed, which would result in inc lying
1553 and saying you had no new mail because it was looking for a
1554 mailbox called, for instance, "dan-nmh" (where username was "dan"
1555 and $USERNAME_EXTENSION was "-nmh").
1557 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtime.c patch:
1559 There's a wrap-around problem that affects the implementation
1560 of Zeller's congruence in dtime.c. This causes the day-of-week
1561 calculations to fail for dates after Feb 29, 2000 (probably up
1562 until some year far in the future).
1564 Mon Mar 06 12:20:20 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1566 * Applied Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s msh.c patch:
1568 I finally tracked down the problem in msh that was causing
1569 errors whenever I tried to examine a 'mmdf' style mailbox.
1571 It turns out that not enough memory was being allocated with
1572 calloc(), causing memory pointers to be overwritten and
1575 Fri Mar 03 16:07:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1577 * Changed the new "plussed_user" option to mts.conf's
1578 "masquerade:" to "username_extension" after getting feedback from
1579 qmail users, who use '-' as a separator rather than '+'. Removed
1580 checking of $USERPLUS variable. Now check $USERNAME_EXTENSION,
1581 which needs to include the appropriate separator for your MTA
1582 ('-', '+', or whatever) as its first character.
1584 Thu Mar 02 23:04:30 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1586 * Added a new "boolean" type to mh.h and TRUE and FALSE constants.
1588 * Added a note to DIFFERENCES stating that it's out-of-date
1589 (Richard was the last one to update it) and that we should
1590 consider only documenting incompatibilities with MH there.
1592 * Implemented (and documented) a third kind of username
1593 masquerading: "plussed user" masquerading. This one was suggested
1594 by Neil Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>. It's based on sendmail's
1595 "plussed user" feature, where mail sent to <user>+<string> will be
1596 delivered to <user>. When it's enabled, it's controlled by the
1597 $USERPLUS environment variable. How is it enabled? Well, that
1600 * Renamed the "mmailid:" setting in mts.conf to "masquerade:", and
1601 changed it so that rather than being a boolean, it can be set to
1602 any combination of the three values "draft_from", "mmailid", and
1603 "plussed_user". Thus it is now possible to enable the three types
1604 of masquerading individually.
1606 * Fixed a bug with "mmailid" masquerading (dating back to MH?)
1607 where if it was turned on, ','s would no longer be considered
1608 GECOS field delimiters.
1610 Wed Mar 01 23:30:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1612 * Changed the GECOS-field '&' translation behavior to be
1613 controlled by the BSD42 #define rather than GCOS_HACK, since it's
1614 apparently always appropriate on OSes where BSD42 is #defined, and
1615 never appropriate on any other OSes. Thanks to Kimmo Suominen for
1616 responding to my "What is this code here for?" comment in mts.c
1617 and explaining the feature.
1619 Mon Feb 28 21:50:29 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1621 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3+dev (ideally this should be
1622 done by whoever makes a release tar file, immediately after doing
1625 * Applied Paul Fox <pgf-spam@foxharp.boston.ma.us>'s scansbr.c
1626 patch, posted to comp.mail.mh, which he says prevents loss of mail
1627 when inc'ing into a full filesystem.
1629 * Changed "echo > stamp-h.in" in Makefile.in to "date > stamp-h.in"
1630 so that stamp-h.in will be different each time configure.in and
1631 related files are changed, making it easier to check it in (which
1632 is necessary to prevent unnecessary autoconf calls).
1634 * My declaration of initgroups() in slocal.c to eliminate the "no
1635 prototype" warning wasn't portable (FreeBSD 3.[23] choked). Now
1636 use AC_EGREP_HEADER to see where initgroups() is declared, if
1639 Sun Feb 20 12:17:15 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1641 * Fix security hole in mhshowsbr.c which allowed untrusted shell
1642 code to be executed.
1644 * Released nmh 1.0.3.
1646 Thu Feb 10 10:54:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1648 * Oops. %-escapes on mhstore lines in mhn.defaults.sh should not
1649 be surrounded by single quotes, as a shell is not spawned when
1650 just saving files, and the filenames will end up with literal
1651 quotes embedded in them.
1653 Fri Feb 04 12:29:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1655 * Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
1656 got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
1657 the -help output. One theory is that they were making reference
1658 to the fact that clearly you know about the -help option since
1659 you're currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea
1660 to overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
1661 supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
1664 The other theory is that because you can say something like
1665 "mhstore -" and get "mhstore: - ambiguous. It matches" followed
1666 by the same list of switches you get with -help, they were saying
1667 you can "sorta" abbreviate "-help" as "-". You don't get the
1668 "Usage:" string, though, so it's not really the same thing.
1670 Thu Feb 03 17:52:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1672 * Applied wesley.craig@umich.edu's KPOP patches. According to him:
1674 The following patch fixes a problem with requesting a
1675 service key for a machine that has multiple 'A' records. It
1676 also makes "-kpop" a command line option, for users who
1677 would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".
1679 Did no testing of the new features, as I don't have access to a
1682 * Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
1684 * Modified INSTALL and config.h.in to reflect the new -kpop feature.
1686 Fri Jan 28 17:39:24 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1688 * All %-escapes in mhn.defaults that actually expand to something
1689 should be surrounded by single quotes. Added quotes to the ones
1690 in mhn.defaults.sh that were missing them.
1692 * Added check for lynx to write mhshow-show-text/html line in
1695 Thu Jan 27 12:22:25 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1697 * makedir() had multiple bugs dating back to MH. An octal
1698 constant was apparently being interpreted as decimal, resulting in
1699 directories with no user read or execute permissions, making
1700 nested directory creation fail. And there wasn't even an
1701 _attempt_ to set desired permissions (e.g. from "Folder-Protect:"
1702 in .mh_profile) on the outer directories of a nested directory.
1704 * A second `make install' would always fail because the check for
1705 whether mh_profile.5 existed was written incorrectly.
1707 Wed Jan 26 02:22:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1709 * Added documentation on both types of masquerading to post's man
1712 Tue Jan 25 22:58:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1714 * Doug's portability fix of my setgid inc autodetection had a
1715 caching bug -- if you re-ran configure, uip/Makefile would be
1716 corrupted, and installation would bomb out on OSes where inc needs
1719 * Implemented a new kind of email address masquerading. Usually,
1720 when a user writes a custom "From:" header in a draft, nmh uses it
1721 rather than generating one. However, the user's true address is
1722 used in the SMTP envelope "From:" and is revealed in the "Sender:"
1723 header. Now, when mmailid is set to non-zero, the envelope
1724 "From:" uses the address specified in the draft "From:" header,
1725 and there is no "Sender:" header. This is useful when sending on
1726 behalf of a remote POP3 account or when remote mail robots
1727 incorrectly use the envelope "From:" in preference to the body
1728 "From:". This processing has only been implemented for post, not
1729 for the undocumented spost (which was already missing some "From:"
1730 processing that post has).
1732 Mon Jan 24 22:26:06 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1734 * Got rid of the rest of the gcc -Wall warnings that I didn't have
1735 time for on 1999-07-15 (and, it would seem, some new ones people
1736 introduced since then). The primary ones were the warnings that
1737 default prototypes were being used for [v]snprintf() and
1738 str[n]casecmp(). As of right now, there are _no_ compilation
1739 warnings except on dtimep.c-lexed (at least under AIX 4.1.5 and
1742 Sun Jan 2 23:42:18 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1744 * Move mhtest from bindir to libdir.
1746 * Move sendfiles from libdir to bindir.
1748 * Updated sendfiles manpage to reflect this change.
1750 * Added documentation for -build and -file switches to repl and
1751 forw manpages (patch from Peter Maydell).
1753 * Fixed interaction between specifying -cc in profile and -group on
1756 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1758 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
1759 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
1760 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
1763 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1765 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
1766 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
1767 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
1768 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
1769 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
1770 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).
1772 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1774 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
1776 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1778 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
1779 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
1780 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
1781 caught again. This works for now.
1783 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
1785 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1787 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
1788 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
1790 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1792 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
1793 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
1795 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
1797 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
1799 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1801 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
1802 changes. Both need more cleanup.
1804 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1806 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
1807 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
1808 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
1809 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
1810 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
1813 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1815 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
1816 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
1817 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
1819 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
1820 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
1823 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1825 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
1826 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
1827 to a directory on another device with more free space.
1829 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1831 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
1832 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
1834 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1836 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
1839 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
1840 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
1842 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
1843 macros, regardless of platform.
1845 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
1846 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1848 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
1849 with x-conversions=gzip.
1851 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1853 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
1856 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
1857 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
1858 implicit definition of ioctl().
1860 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
1861 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
1862 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
1863 want to mess with them.
1865 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1867 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
1868 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
1870 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
1871 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
1873 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
1874 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
1875 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
1877 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
1878 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
1879 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
1881 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
1882 function initgroups.
1884 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
1887 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
1888 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
1891 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
1892 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
1895 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
1896 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
1900 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1902 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
1903 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
1904 preventing compilation on at least linux.
1906 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
1907 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
1909 Thu Sep 09 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1911 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
1913 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
1914 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
1915 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
1916 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
1918 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
1919 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
1921 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1923 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
1925 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1927 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
1928 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
1930 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1932 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
1933 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
1935 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
1936 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
1937 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
1938 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
1940 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
1941 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
1943 Sat Jun 09 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1945 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
1946 substitute it for mktemp if available.
1948 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1950 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
1951 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
1954 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
1956 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
1958 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
1960 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
1961 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
1963 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
1964 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
1965 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
1967 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
1968 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
1969 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
1971 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
1972 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
1973 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1975 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
1976 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
1979 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
1980 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1982 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
1983 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1985 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
1986 <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1988 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
1989 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
1990 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1992 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
1993 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1995 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
1996 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
1997 <elleron@servtech.com>.
1999 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
2000 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
2003 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
2004 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
2006 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
2007 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
2008 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
2009 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
2011 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
2012 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
2014 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2018 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
2019 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
2020 would not be changed.
2022 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
2023 one from the Apache web server.
2025 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
2026 (this should have been done a long time ago).
2028 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
2029 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
2030 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
2032 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
2034 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
2036 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
2037 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
2040 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
2041 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
2042 removes a bad race condition.
2044 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
2047 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
2048 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
2049 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
2051 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
2052 sequence information.
2054 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
2055 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
2057 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
2060 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
2063 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
2065 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
2066 interpret 034 as octal.
2068 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
2070 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
2071 mhstore, and mhbuild.
2073 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
2074 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
2076 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
2077 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
2079 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
2080 in the c_cefile structure when building.
2082 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
2083 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
2085 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
2086 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
2087 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
2089 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
2090 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
2091 and mhshow. Updated man pages
2093 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
2095 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
2097 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
2098 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
2101 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
2103 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
2104 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
2106 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
2107 header field information.
2109 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
2110 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
2112 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
2113 values when parsing a content.
2115 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
2116 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
2118 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
2119 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
2121 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
2122 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
2124 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
2125 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
2127 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
2129 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
2131 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
2133 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
2135 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
2136 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
2139 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
2140 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
2142 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
2143 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
2144 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
2145 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
2146 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
2147 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
2150 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
2152 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
2153 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
2154 buffer length checks for this parameter.
2156 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
2157 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
2159 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
2161 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
2162 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
2163 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
2164 of the limits on the length of command lines.
2166 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
2167 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
2170 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
2171 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
2172 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
2173 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
2176 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2178 * Released nmh-0.27.
2180 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
2181 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
2183 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
2184 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
2185 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
2186 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
2189 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
2190 mhbuild returns an error.
2192 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
2193 rename the draft file.
2195 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
2196 use a global variable.
2198 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
2199 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
2201 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
2202 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
2204 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
2205 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
2206 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
2208 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
2209 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
2211 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
2212 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
2215 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
2216 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
2219 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
2220 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
2222 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
2223 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
2224 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
2226 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
2227 to new function output_content_folder.
2229 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
2230 new function output_content_file.
2232 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
2233 to new function parse_format_string.
2235 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
2236 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
2237 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
2238 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
2240 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
2241 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
2242 message/external file from ftp.
2244 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
2245 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
2246 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
2248 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
2249 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
2252 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
2255 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
2256 new file mhstoresbr.c
2258 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
2261 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
2262 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
2264 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
2265 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
2267 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
2268 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
2269 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
2271 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
2273 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
2275 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
2276 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
2279 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
2280 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
2282 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
2285 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
2287 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2289 * Released nmh-0.26.
2291 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
2292 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
2293 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
2294 is still the same (dashstuffing).
2296 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
2297 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
2298 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
2299 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
2300 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
2302 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
2303 But it is not on by default.
2305 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
2306 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
2308 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
2310 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
2312 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
2314 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
2316 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
2317 number of the "cur" message when packing.
2319 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2321 * Released nmh-0.25.
2323 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
2324 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
2325 uses the original name of the library.
2327 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
2328 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
2331 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
2332 list_content and list_debug.
2334 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
2336 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
2337 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.
2339 1998-02-27 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2341 * Released nmh-0.24.
2343 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
2345 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
2346 are given, that order doesn't matter.
2348 * Fix bug in seq_list.c when realloc'ing for
2349 large sequence line.
2351 1998-02-23 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2353 * Released nmh-0.23.
2355 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
2357 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
2358 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan
2359 content, decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary
2360 string). I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
2362 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
2363 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
2366 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
2368 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
2370 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
2372 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
2373 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
2375 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
2376 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.
2378 * Add note to MACHINES file that on Linux, configure
2379 doesn't find the functions sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
2381 * Fix configuration for machines that don't have (or find)
2382 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
2384 1998-02-11 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2386 * Released nmh-0.22.
2388 * Add a configure check for sigsetjmp. Add some conditional
2389 #define's in h/signals.h in case it's not found.
2391 * Added additional notes about -auto switch in mhn man page.
2393 * Added note about MM_CHARSET environment variable to
2394 mh-profile(5) man page.
2396 * Fix signal problem in mhn.c (change setjmp/longjmp to
2397 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp).
2399 1998-02-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2401 * Released nmh-0.22-pre1.
2403 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
2404 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
2406 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
2408 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
2409 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
2410 entry point for parsing MIME files.
2412 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
2413 source message on the standard input.
2415 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
2417 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
2418 rather than -rfc934mode.
2420 * Fix mhbuild, so that Content-Description and RFC-822 comments
2421 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
2424 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
2425 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).
2427 * Restore HP specific code to zotnet/tws/lexstring.c. Apparently
2430 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2432 * Released nmh-0.21.
2434 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
2435 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.
2437 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what transfer
2440 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what character set
2441 to use for text contents.
2443 * Removed old hpux specific code from zotnet/tws/lexstring.c
2445 1998-02-02 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2447 * Released nmh-0.21-pre2.
2449 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
2451 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
2452 header fields as per RFC-2047.
2454 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
2455 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
2456 spaces between encoded word are.
2458 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
2460 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
2461 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
2463 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
2464 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
2465 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
2467 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
2469 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
2470 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
2472 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.
2474 * Added support for %(decode) to fmtdump.c.
2476 * check_charset() now accepts US-ASCII as a subset of any
2477 ISO-8859-X character set.
2479 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
2482 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
2483 permissions, not write permissions.
2485 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
2486 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
2488 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
2491 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2493 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
2495 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
2496 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
2498 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
2499 message contains valid character set.
2501 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
2502 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
2504 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
2505 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
2507 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
2508 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
2509 between an encoded word and normal text.
2511 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
2512 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
2514 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
2515 as a RFC-2047 header field.
2517 * The command install-mh now recognizes the switches -version
2520 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
2521 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
2524 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
2525 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
2527 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
2528 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
2530 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
2532 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2534 * Released nmh-0.20.
2536 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
2538 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.
2540 * Changed the default format file for mhl (mhl.format) to
2541 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
2542 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
2544 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
2545 and the To: line was missing.
2547 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
2549 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2551 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
2553 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
2554 watch the POP transaction.
2556 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
2557 first, and use it if available.
2559 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
2560 first, and use it if available.
2562 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2564 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
2566 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
2567 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
2568 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
2571 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
2572 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
2573 returns the state FLDPLUS.
2575 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
2576 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
2579 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
2581 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
2582 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
2584 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
2586 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
2587 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
2589 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
2590 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
2591 message to which you are replying.
2593 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
2594 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
2595 making group replies.
2597 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
2599 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2601 * Released nmh-0.19.
2603 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
2604 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
2606 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
2607 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
2608 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
2609 to the end of the man page.
2611 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
2612 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
2613 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
2614 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
2615 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
2616 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
2618 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
2621 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
2622 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
2623 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
2625 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
2626 the next available number above the message number you wish
2629 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
2630 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
2632 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
2633 file sbr/seq_print.c
2635 * flist will now update the current folder.
2637 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
2638 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
2639 but now undocumented.
2641 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
2644 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
2645 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
2647 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
2649 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
2650 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
2652 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2654 * Released nmh-0.18.
2656 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
2657 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
2658 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
2660 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
2661 retains the public/private status of sequences.
2663 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
2664 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
2665 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
2666 previous public/private status.
2668 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
2671 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
2674 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
2675 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
2676 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
2678 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
2679 take option to determine whether it should get current
2680 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
2681 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
2683 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
2685 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
2686 wait for stopped processes.
2688 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
2689 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
2691 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2693 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
2695 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
2696 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
2698 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
2699 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
2701 * Change the way that memory for message status is
2702 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
2703 the folder/message structure. This required changing
2704 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
2706 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
2709 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
2712 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
2714 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
2715 the debugging output.
2717 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
2718 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
2720 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2722 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
2724 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
2725 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
2727 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
2729 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
2730 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
2731 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
2732 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
2733 in the given sequence.
2735 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
2736 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
2737 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
2738 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
2739 subdirectories of a given directory.
2741 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
2742 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
2743 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
2745 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
2746 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
2748 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
2750 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
2753 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
2754 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
2755 fields are now calculated at runtime.
2757 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
2758 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
2759 are calculated at runtime.
2761 Sun Nov 30 19:14:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2763 * Released nmh-0.18-pre2.
2765 * Add paragraph to man page for install-mh and to INSTALL file
2766 about checking for global mh.profile.
2768 * Renamed m_find() to context_find().
2769 Renamed m_replace() to context_replace().
2770 Renamed m_delete() to context_del().
2771 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
2772 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
2773 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
2775 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
2776 adding message to folder itself.
2778 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
2779 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
2780 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
2783 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
2784 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
2787 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
2788 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
2789 is the same as the direct smtp code).
2791 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
2792 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
2794 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
2795 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
2796 code to use it yet).

2800 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.
2802 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never

2806 context is updated before external rmmproc is called.
2808 * Removed all the OVERHEAD code.
2810 * Move code to add message to folder from refile.c
2813 Fri Jul 25 19:39:29 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

2846 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
2848 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
2849 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
2851 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
2854 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
2855 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
2857 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
2858 number of refiled message.
2860 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
2862 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
2863 for return value of wait().

2873 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
2875 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
2876 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
2877 deal with binary messages, yet).
2879 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
2881 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
2883 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
2884 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
2885 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
2886 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
2887 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
2888 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
2890 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
2891 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
2893 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
2894 From MH-6.8.4 patch.

2905 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
2908 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
2911 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
2913 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
2914 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
2915 which used unsigned chars by default.

2926 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
2928 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
2931 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
2932 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
2933 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
2935 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
2936 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
2938 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
2940 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
2941 they conflict with defines on AIX.
2943 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
2944 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
2945 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
2946 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
2948 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
2949 and put in own subroutine.
2951 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
2952 and put in own subroutine.
2954 * Moved code to remove messages from folder into own
2955 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and
2956 refile.c to use new routine.
2958 Fri May 16 06:09:31 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2960 * Renamed m_seqok to seq_nameok.
2962 * Changed m_setunseen, msh, mshcmds, flist, and scan to use
2965 * Changed m_seqflag to return the number of a sequence rather
2966 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
2967 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
2969 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
2972 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before

2984 all selected messages from a sequence.
2986 * Added new function m_seqaddsel to m_seqadd.c, which adds all
2987 selected messages to a sequence.
2989 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,
2992 Thu May 15 00:53:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2994 * Renamed function pack_folder to m_packfolder, and moved it
2995 from uip/folder.c into its own file sbr/m_packfolder.c
2997 Wed May 14 23:38:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2999 * Changed function m_gmsg to m_readfolder. Renamed file

3018 `procs' better. Deprecated `-noshowproc' option and NOMHNPROC
3019 environment variable.
3021 * Added new man page `mh-draft' which documents the
3022 draft folder facility in nmh.
3024 * Renamed fmtsbr.h to fmt_scan.h. Renamed fmtcompile.h

3036 * Released nmh-0.13.
3038 * Changed mhpath so it doesn't abort if a message sequence
3039 such as "mhpath all" expands to more than 1000 messages.
3040 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
3041 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
3044 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
3045 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
3047 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3049 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if
3050 necessary. So `folders' can now handle more than 300 folders.
3052 Tue Apr 22 14:01:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3054 * Change configure to use a compile check to see if the tm struct

3076 * Change fstat to stat in m_gmsg.c since Linux wants
3079 * Merge Linux patch sent in by Michel Oosterhof (original
3080 patch from bsa@kf8nh.wariat.org).
3082 * Document an undocumented MH feature. mhn -form mhl.null
3083 will suppress the display of the message header.
3085 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
3087 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c
3088 and mshcmds.c, rather than hard coding in /bin/cat.
3090 * Add mhnproc to the list of `procs' in mh-profile.man.
3092 * Add configure test for lorder and tsort commands.
3094 * Commented out the padding in the `msgs` struct in h/mh.h
3096 * Change m_gmsg.c to allocate elements to the `info' array by
3097 500 elements at a time (rather than MAXFOLDERS / 5).
3099 * Add note to man page for mhmail that zero length messages are
3100 not sent. Need to use -body "" to send empty messages.
3102 * zotnet/mts/mts.c : compare character with '\0', not NULL.
3104 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
3106 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
3107 folder/message structure when done with folder.
3109 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is
3110 defined even if message is missing "From " line.
3112 Mon Mar 31 03:37:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3114 * Released nmh-0.10.

3124 The "From " line is now removed from all messages.
3126 * inc now saves the date from the "From " envelope in the
3127 Delivery-Date header for all messages.
3129 * sbr/m_getfld.c: Clean up processing of Return-Path and
3130 Delivery-Date from the "From " envelope.
3132 Mon Mar 17 19:03:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3134 * client.c: cast iaddr to int before comparing return value
3135 of inet_addr with NOTOK.
3137 Tue Mar 11 04:38:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3139 * Grep test for signal names was failing on some OS'es because

3167 Mon Mar 3 00:18:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3169 * rcvtty.c : Changed to use #define UTMP_FILE (if exists) rather
3170 than hard coded "/etc/utmp".
3172 * Released nmh-0.08.
3174 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
3175 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of
3176 locking database itself.
3178 Thu Feb 27 05:28:09 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3180 * Added slocal action `mmdf' to deliver to a file in mmdf format.
3182 * Changed the slocal actions `file' and `>' to always deliver in
3183 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
3186 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
3187 rather than mmdf format.
3189 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
3190 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
3191 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
3192 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
3194 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
3196 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3198 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
3201 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
3202 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
3203 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
3205 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
3206 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
3207 rcvpack so you can choose the preferred format.
3209 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3211 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
3212 can still easily change this in config.h).
3214 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
3215 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
3216 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
3218 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3220 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather

3232 Tue Feb 11 01:29:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3234 * Add check to configure, so that if ruserpass, or _ruserpass
3235 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
3237 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
3238 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
3241 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
3242 built-in FTP client in mhn.
3244 * Added configure check for ushort and ulong. Change code
3245 to use ushort/ulong rather than u_short/u_long.
3247 * A couple of small cleanups in locking code.
3249 * Added configure check for gmtoff element in struct tm.
3251 * Added configure check for tzset.

3255 * Released nmh-0.06.
3257 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
3258 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
3260 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
3261 many such machines around anymore.
3263 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
3264 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
3266 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
3267 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
3269 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3271 * Check lex generated file in zotnet/tws and use
3272 pre-generated version if necessary.
3274 * Released nmh-0.05.
3276 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
3277 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
3278 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
3279 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
3281 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
3282 be linked in one pass.
3284 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3286 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
3287 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
3289 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3291 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
3293 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3295 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
3296 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
3297 become the current folder.
3299 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3301 * Released nmh-0.04.
3303 * Define ospeed and PC in termsbr.c is OS doesn't have
3306 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3308 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
3309 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
3310 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
3312 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3314 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
3315 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
3317 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3319 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
3320 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
3323 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
3324 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
3326 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3328 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
3329 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
3330 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
3331 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
3332 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
3333 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
3335 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3337 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
3338 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
3340 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
3341 a file (currently need to specify full path).
3343 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3345 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
3346 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
3348 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3350 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
3351 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
3352 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
3354 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3356 * Released nmh-0.03.
3358 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
3359 .mh_sequence file existed.
3361 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
3362 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
3364 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
3365 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
3368 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3370 * Changed flist option -unseen to -[no]all. Cleaned up
3373 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3375 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
3376 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
3377 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
3379 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3381 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
3382 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
3383 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
3385 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3387 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL
3388 and allocate its own buffer. Borrowed from zsh.

3392 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3394 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
3395 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
3396 directory from where the source code is located.
3398 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3400 * Released nmh-0.02.

3421 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
3422 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path

3426 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3428 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
3430 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with
3431 macro defined on Solaris.
3433 Thu Dec 26 02:50:15 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3435 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
3436 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
3438 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
3439 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable

3454 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
3456 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included

3461 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
3462 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
3464 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3466 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
3467 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
3468 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
3469 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
3470 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
3471 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
3473 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3475 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
3477 * Released nmh-0.01.
3479 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
3480 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
3481 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
3484 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3486 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
3489 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

3492 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
3494 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3496 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
3497 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
3498 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
3499 script to find_program.
3501 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3503 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
3504 speed up -recurse option.
3506 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
3507 yet, but it compiles :-)
3509 * Changed default location for install to
3510 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
3511 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
3512 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
3515 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
3516 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
3517 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
