1 Fri Dec 22 22:08:51 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
3 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in msgchk.man. -snoop was
4 documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
6 Fri Dec 22 23:42:16 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
8 * Made a new ./configure option called
9 "--with-locking" that allows the file
10 locking mechanism to be chosen there instead of
11 requiring a manual edit of config.h.
13 * If the option is not explicitly set, or an
14 invalid option is specified, "dot" locking is
15 chosen. Valid options are "dot", "fcntl",
16 "flock", and "lockf". We need a way to tell
17 the user that these are the valid options, and
18 change the flag "--with-locking" if it's not
21 Fri Dec 22 19:21:29 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
23 * Remove the lex-specific memory hints at the
24 beginning of sbr/dtimep.lex. We've already
25 committed to supporting flex only, since
26 lex does not easily allow us to parse a single
27 string, as well as other problems documented
28 below and on nmh-workers.
30 * Added a switch statement to configure.in to
31 test for Mac OS X. If this is the case, LDFLAGS
32 should not contain "-s" since the linker rejects
35 * Updated MACHINES to include Mac OS X Public Beta,
36 as well as Linux 2.4 running glibc 2.2.
38 Wed Dec 20 16:00:46 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
40 * Marked deprecated directories in docs/README.developers
41 as deprecated, with pointers to the new code location.
42 Eventually these deprecated directories should go away.
44 Tue Dec 19 19:16:37 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
46 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in inc.man. -snoop was
47 documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
49 Thu Dec 14 14:32:09 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
51 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
52 versions on ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/config, dated
53 12-07-00. This should prevent configure from failing
54 on newer operating systems because config.{guess,sub}
55 couldn't correctly identify them.
57 Thu Dec 14 1:30:44 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
59 * Fixed the circular dependency created when I moved
60 zotnet/mts to mts/generic and merged them into libmts.
61 mts/generic/client.c and mts/generic/mts.c are now in sbr/
62 (and thus in libmh), which makes libmh self-contained and
63 not depending on an external archive.
65 * All include statements now look for mts.h in h/. The
66 Makefiles and configure script have been modified so that
67 mts/generic is no longer built.
69 Mon Dec 11 22:08:07 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
71 * When Shantonu made the new libmts.a, he swapped $(MTSLIB) and
72 libmh.a in sbr/Makefile.in so that libmh.a comes first, but this
73 causes the build to fail on Solaris, because libmts.a has to get
74 ruserpass() out of libmh.a. Swapping them back to the way Ken
75 Hornstein's patch (which I applied on Jul 20) put them, with
76 libmh.a correctly coming second. If there are times when libmts.a
77 needs to come second, then it would appear there's a circular
78 dependency and someone (Shantonu?) did an mts merge incorrectly.
80 Fri Sep 8 01:36:23 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
82 * Took out bad time textual time zones like BST and JST.
83 I found them online somewhere, but am not sure if they're
86 Fri Sep 8 00:36:48 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
88 * Moved zotnet/mts to mts/generic. This code reorganization
89 makes the entire zotnet tree deprecated -- bboards is unneeded,
90 mf was was moved to sbr, tws was rewritten and moved to sbr, and
93 * Created a new static library called libmts.a used during
94 compilation which includes the generic mts code and the
95 smtp/sendmail code. This supercedes the functionality of the
96 old libsmtp.a and the remains of libzot.a.
98 * Updated header includes to reference the new location of mts.h
99 in mts/generic/mts.h. Also, update the configure and top-level
100 Makefile not to descend into zotnet. Also, they don't descend
101 into mts/mmdf and mts/sendmail (the sendmail code has been
102 merged into the smtp code).
104 * Added #include <h/nmh.h> to h/md5.h, since my compile was
105 complaining about implicitly-declared memcpy and memset, which
106 appear to be in strings.h. In any event, nmh.h should take care
109 * When doing a "make nmhdist", notice that the generated
110 snapshot does not include zotnet of the mts directories as noted
111 above. Since they are no longer compiled, and I don't see any
112 obvious code path to get to them, end-users should probably
113 not need them. If you think otherwise, turn Makefile generation
114 back on in configure.in and turn on recursion into those dirs
115 in the appropriate Makefile.in
117 Wed Sep 6 22:40:03 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
119 * Tracked down the problem in the new dtimep where time
120 zones were being radically misreported. It was because the
121 parser knew about military time zones (such as M or E) but in
122 some cases did not know about the textual representation of
123 some zones (like MET). When it encountered one of these, the
124 date parser misread MET as the military time zone T (well, first
125 zone M, then E, and finally T). I took military zones out, and
126 things seem much better. Also, the default behavior of parsing
127 time zones appears to default to GMT in the absence of better
128 info, which is less bogus than assuming the mail came from the
129 current time zone, which was the behavior in 1.04.
131 Thu Aug 10 13:22:13 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
133 * Decided that limiting the message number columns to 3 on my
134 scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD (to try to regain space taken by
135 extra date info) was ill-conceived. It's not that tough to get
136 past 999 messages, though I imagine it's rather rare to exceed
137 9999. Changed these to 4. Also put the "replied / encrypted"
138 column back in YYYYMMDD -- I've never seen it show anything but a
139 space, but that space is useful if you use scan, grep, and awk
140 (with the default field separator) to grab message numbers (I know
141 -- pick should really be used for these purposes...).
143 Mon Aug 7 20:11:09 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
145 * Modify umask set by mhshow to enable user execute bit, so that
146 viewers that create temporary directories (e.g., lynx) will be
149 Thu Aug 03 17:14:08 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
151 * TODO: Allow multiple simultaneous differing contexts, probably
152 each tied to a parent (terminal) process.
154 Tue Aug 1 10:48:05 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
156 * Makefile install rules should not look for generated files in
157 the source tree -- this will happen to work when configuring and
158 building inside the source tree but will fail when using an
159 external build tree. Fixed etc/Makefile.in.
161 Mon Jul 24 16:20:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
163 * When Shantonu wrote the new, more portable dtimep.lex, he left
164 out the #ifdef DSTXXX stuff for some reason. Not a good idea, as
165 that code is required for proper printing of numeric-offset
166 timezones that have daylight saving time. Without that code,
167 -0700 during DST gets printed as MST instead of PDT.
169 * Renamed DSTXXX as ADJUST_NUMERIC_ONLY_TZ_OFFSETS_WRT_DST and
170 added an explanatory comment by its #definition.
172 * Updated README.developers with the fact that zotnet/tws is going away.
174 Thu Jul 20 20:30:52 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
176 * Moved Kimmo's new "--with-hash-backup" to be output with the
177 rest of the --with options in the configure --help output. Also,
178 people did not preserve my alphabetization of the --with options
179 when they added new ones. Re-alphabetized.
181 * One more pass at README.developers now that it's clear that my
182 previously-suggested one-line autoconf-file commit can cause
183 unnecessary local makes and an out-of-sync stamp-h.in file, but
184 would not cause problems for other people using the CVS files.
186 * Ken Hornstein's SASL patch was not integrated properly with
187 Ruud's new merged mts/sendmail code. Kimmo has since fixed nmh so
188 it compiles, but according to Ken, the SASL stuff still does not
189 work. Integrating a patch from him for this.
191 * Last pass at README.developers -- Kimmo's 5-step commit was
192 overkill. You only need 3 steps, since configure.in is the only
193 autoconf file with the RCS $Id keyword.
195 * Applied Kurt J. Lidl <lidl@eng.us.uu.net>'s $MAILHOST patch:
197 I have a small patch that would be nice to be included --
198 basically, it allows the usage of the "MAILHOST" environment
199 variable, without having to have HESIOD turned on. I need
200 this functionality for my environment, where we have identical
201 /usr/local on all my machines (so I cannot just hardcode into
202 the mts.conf file), and I have multiple POP mail servers for
205 Modified inc.man to reflect that along with "pophost:" and -host,
206 $MAILHOST can now activate POP mail inclusion as well.
208 * Fixed warnings from diff on first-time install of nmh. Also
209 added 'echo's clarifying the etc file installation activities.
211 Tue Jul 18 19:36:59 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
213 * Added the answer to Dan's question in README.developers.
215 Mon Jul 17 19:10:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
217 * Clarified and made some corrections to Kimmo's README.developers
218 changes (BTW, if anyone can explain why the RCS Ids are able to cause
219 problems with the dependencies, please fill in the explanation --
220 I never encountered a problem with the old single-commit method).
222 Sat Jul 15 23:13:49 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
224 * Add configure option --with-hash-backup so the backup prefix can
225 be easily changed from "," to "#".
227 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that it works with any make.
229 * Use mkstemp in sbr/lock_file.c.
231 * Commits of autoconf-related files apparently can't all be done
232 in one shot due to RCS Ids changing when committing -- updated
235 Tue Jul 11 14:18:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
237 * Clarified post.man and send.man for those not completely up on
238 SASL terminology. "SASL encryption layers are not supported for
239 SMTP" means that encryption is supported for the authentication
240 but not for the subsequent data stream.
242 Sat Jul 8 01:36:19 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
244 * Applied Ken Hornstein <kenh@cmf.nrl.navy.mil>'s patches
245 implementing SASL support for POP3 and SMTP. If nmh is compiled
246 with SASL support, using the -sasl switch on the inc, msgchk,
247 post, and send commands will enable authentication encryption for
248 SMTP, and both authentication and data stream encryption for POP3.
250 Sat Jun 10 18:37:59 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
252 * Merged mts/sendmail functionality into mts/smtp; switching between
253 smtp and sendmail delivery method is now controlled by mts.conf.
255 * If tsort cannot deal with loops, in addition to defining tsort as
256 cat, also define lorder as echo.
258 * Removed uip/popi.c from list of sources.
260 Thu Jun 08 19:36:57 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
262 * New dtimep.lex didn't parse day names properly. Fixed. Also
263 clarified ambiguous comments preceding day_map[] array (from old
264 dtimep.lex) that probably led to the erroneous cp++ being added.
266 Wed Jun 7 20:52:33 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
268 * Added one more mkstemp invocation to uip/spost.c (which was in a
271 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to clean up permissions handling
272 and error handling in uip/inc.c.
274 Mon Jun 5 22:10:07 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
276 * Use cat instead of tsort if tsort cannot deal with loops in its
277 input (which is the case for tsort from GNU textutils).
279 Mon Jun 5 21:14:36 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
281 * If lockfile is present, and its dotlockfile program is setgid,
282 inc does not need to be setgid.
284 Sun Jun 4 21:35:40 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
286 * Added autoconf test for Miquel van Smoorenburg's liblockfile
287 library, as found on Debian systems.
289 * Added liblockfile support to sbr/lock_file.c.
291 Wed May 31 7:19:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
293 * Fixed up dtimep.lex a bit. Added back memory options for AIX to
294 increase available memory. Took out %option noyywrap, which
295 wasn't understood by AT&T lex, as well as the -i
296 case-insensitivity flag.
298 Wed May 31 07:40:45 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
300 * Added a lint target to the Makefiles and a check in autoconf
301 to determine whether lint or lclint exists on the system.
303 Fri May 30 19:21:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
305 * etc/Makefile.in was incorrectly installing mts.conf.in and
306 sendfiles.in -- fixed. Generated sendfiles script was not a
307 dependency of the `all' target, and was incorrectly included in
308 the distribution. Changed the suffix for the backed-up previous
309 versions of the etc files from the ambiguous .old to .prev. Added
310 call to diff -- only keep the .prev files around if different from
311 the newly-installed versions (intentionally didn't redirect output
312 to /dev/null so you'll notice when your changed versions are
313 getting moved aside).
315 * INSTALL never documented the etc/*.old thing. Documented the
316 new etc/*.prev thing (including a note to watch for diff output).
318 * Applied Alec Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu>'s dropsbr.c patch:
320 In the map_write routine, a call is made to map_open and this
321 call is supposed to set the "clear" variable to 0 or 1,
322 depending on whether the map file is empty or not. In
323 mh6.8.3, this worked because map_open would set "clear" by
324 calling the mbx_Xopen routine. In nmh, the code for mbx_Xopen
325 was merged into mbx_open, but the interface for mbx_open
326 doesn't support the clear variable, so that functionality was
327 lost. The map_open interface still contains "int *clear" in
328 the prototype, but never sets it.
330 My patch eliminates "clear" from the map_open interface (I
331 checked to make sure that map_write is the only client of
332 map_open). Furthermore, my patch also sets the "clear"
333 variable properly at the beginning of map_write by calling
334 fstat(). This eliminates the bug in that the value of "clear"
335 being used later in the routine was just stack garbage.
337 Having a bad value of clear causes this next bug to be
338 triggered: The fp file pointer was being opened with fdopen,
339 but in two of the three switch cases it wasn't being closed.
340 In certain cases, this was causing packf to run out of file
341 descriptors if you attempted to pack a large folder.
343 Mon May 29 7:48:15 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
345 * Moved the date parsing routines from zotnet/tws to sbr/ (and
346 tws.h to h/). Updated all source files to reflect to new location
349 * Rewrote dparsetime (in dtimep.lex -> dtimep.c) to replace the
350 old zotnet/tws/dtimep.c, dtimep.lex, lexstring.c, lexedit.c, and
351 dtimep.c-lexed. It should now work with flex (although untested
352 with lex), and requires no sed-ing. For now, I have the lexed
353 version in the distribution, so that end-users don't need to worry
354 about running it through flex/lex. I have not added back support
355 for guessing the time zone when it's not specified.
357 Sun May 28 17:44:15 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
359 * Added autoconf check for getutent().
361 * Changed uip/rcvtty.c and uip/slocal.c to use getutent() and
362 friends. Since I can only check on Linux, please check if
363 this works on other systems.
365 Sun May 28 14:58:49 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
367 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to uip/scansbr.c for more
368 checks for write failures.
370 * Unlink temporary file properly in uip/rcvtty.c.
372 * Moved viamail from bindir to libdir.
374 * Changed sendfiles into sendfiles.in, so that path to viamail
377 * Added gzip support to sendfiles.
379 * Added References header to replcomps and replgroupcomps.
381 Sun May 28 14:39:31 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
383 * Fixed m_getfld bug which caused segmentation faults when
384 incorporating messages which ended in multiple linefeeds crossing
387 Fri May 26 13:21:59 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
389 * msh has been unable to show MIME messages ever since 1.0. Alec
390 Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu> tracked down the problem to the
391 -show flag being passed to mhshow. mhshow is equivalent to the
392 old mhn -show, so we don't need the -show anymore. Removed it.
394 Fri May 12 02:51:21 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
396 * zotnet/bboards is not longer built by default. Goal is to move
397 the assorted functions in zotnet into sbr or some more logical
400 * Moved zotnet/mf to sbr, and changed mf.h references accordingly,
401 as well as Makefiles.
403 Thu May 11 02:21:34 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
405 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that both SRCS and OBJS aren't
406 seperately and redundantly defined, but so that OBJS is a
407 pattern-substituted version of SRCS with suffix .c -> .o. This
408 should make maintainability easier.
410 * Added section to MACHINES indicating what platforms nmh is known
411 to compile and work on, just to give users peace of mind, or
412 something. This is by no means complete or exhaustive, so add
413 whatever you know works.
415 Tue May 09 20:38:04 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
417 * Alphabetized Shantonu's $pop_kinds output on configure's "pop is
418 enabled" line. If POP3 is the only kind of POP enabled, say so,
419 rather than just saying "yes" (which is ambiguous).
421 * Fixed four warnings in Shantonu's new getpass.c. Needed to
422 #include <stdlib.h> for calloc(), <unistd.h> for ttyname(), and
423 "h/mh.h" for adios(). Also changed ch from char to int to get rid
424 of "comparison is always 1 due to limited range of data type" on EOF.
426 * Added steps to README.developers saying to change the version
427 number to X.Y.Z+dev. Did a little rearranging and changed the FTP
428 dir from /home/ftp to /var/ftp to reflect Doug's new machine.
430 * Changed configure.in to use gcc -Wall even without
431 --enable-debug, to prevent developers compiling optimized from
432 introducing warnings, and to give end-users a warm, fuzzy feeling
433 as they (hopefully) see no warnings come out (except perhaps on
434 the lex output file) even with -Wall.
436 * Renamed getpass() to nmh_getpass() since the prototype for
437 getpass() varies from OS to OS, and we want to _always_ use our
438 version of the function. Fixed all the callers to use
439 nmh_getpass() and added it to prototypes.h. Semi-arbitrarily
440 upped MAX_PASSWORD_LEN from 128 to 256. buf was being calloc()'d
441 and the memory leaked -- should have just been declared as static
442 char array. Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the
443 copyright message, as this version has been changed significantly
444 from the BSD version.
446 * Added "nmh-local functions to use in preference to OS versions"
447 section to README.developers (currently just says to use
448 nmh_getpass() instead of system getpass()).
450 * Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the copyright message
453 * Added mts.conf.5 page per Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s
456 This happens on solaris:
459 windex entry incorrect: mts.conf(5) not found.
460 No manual entry for mts.conf.
464 % echo ".so man5/mh-tailor.5" > mts.conf.5
466 done in the man5 directory. We need to add 'mts.conf.5' as a
467 reference sourcing mh-tailor.5.
469 Mon May 08 23:51:55 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
471 * Doug informed me that the way I had restored the "lost" version
472 histories was wrong, because `cvs checkout's of old versions of
473 nmh wouldn't work properly. It occurs to me that this could be
474 fixed by simply deleting those tags in the new-location *,v files,
475 but oh well. I'm putting everything back to the way Doug
476 originally had it. To get the old version history for a file that
477 used to be in the top directory, you'll need to "blindly" do a
478 `cvs log' there (even though you won't have a local copy of the
479 file in that directory). `cvs diff' will no longer be able to
480 diff pre-move versions vs. post-move versions -- you'll have to do
481 a lot of manual gyrations with `cvs checkout' and then use `diff'.
483 * I had alphabetized the --configure options in the --help output
484 awhile back, but Shantonu added --enable-apop just under
485 --enable-pop. Put it in alphabetical order and clarified what
486 --enable-apop does vs. --enable-pop and --with-krb4. Also changed
487 --with-mts help line from "mail transport agent" to "mail
488 transport agent/service" so the 's' in "mts" doesn't seem to come
491 * Added two steps to "releasing nmh" in README.developers. After
492 making the tarball, it's a good idea to diff the tree vs. the CVS
493 tree to make sure no files got left out, and then to chown the
494 files so that they're owned by root, preventing a Trojaning attack
495 by a malicious remote user with a UID matching yours.
497 * Changed DIFFERENCES to say that RPOP is not currently supported
498 rather than implying it by saying that APOP, KPOP, and POP[3] are.
500 Sun May 07 18:16:43 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
502 * Imported NetBSD version of getpass() and made extensive
503 revisions for compatibility with programs that pipe the password
504 to stdin, such as exmh.
506 * Removed tests for system ruserpass() which sometimes gave
507 phantom positive results. Also, bext to use internal functions if
508 we ever want to change .netrc format to something else, or access
511 Sat May 06 08:28:09 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
513 * Restored lost version histories for those moved files by doing a
514 manual `mv' in the CVSROOT on mhost. CVS badly needs a `cvs mv'
515 command so that you can move files (without having physical access
516 to the CVSROOT) without losing versioning. Put MACHINES back at
517 the top level as it needs to be read before building. Fixed DIST
518 variable in {.,docs}/Makefile.in to reflect that and to add
519 missing entry for "INSTALL" file.
521 Sat May 06 13:13:07 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
523 * Re-cleaned up nmh documentation (by moving things to docs
524 subdir) and modified Makefile & configure.in to handle the change.
526 Mon Apr 17 21:28:40 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
528 * Scott Blachowicz pointed out that the configure --help output
529 for --enable-masquerade was misleading. Clarified.
531 Mon Apr 17 19:01:00 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
533 * APOP support can be compiled in to inc and msgchk using
536 * To access an APOP host, specify -apop on the command line
537 along with any -host or -user option.
539 Fri Apr 14 23:10:44 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
541 * Upped the version number to 1.0.4+dev until the next nmh release.
543 * Added a "releasing nmh" section to README.developers, while the
544 process was fresh in my mind.
546 Fri Apr 14 18:21:34 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
548 * Added new files README.developers, ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6, and
549 ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html to DIST target in Makefile.in.
551 * Released nmh-1.0.4.
553 Tue Apr 11 21:37:03 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
555 * Applied Brian Campbell <bacam@tardis.ed.ac.uk>'s mhn.defaults.sh
558 It appears that there shouldn't be quotes around the %s in the
559 iso-8859-1 charset entry; xterm passes the remaining arguments
560 to the program, quoting them means that xterm thinks they're
561 part of the program's name.
563 This %s isn't the same as the "Insert content subtype" one from
564 mhshow-show-* -- it doesn't come from MIME headers and is safe not
567 Sun Apr 09 13:03:59 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
569 * added check in fmt_compile() to handle a single-character
570 format string. fmt_compile() depends on having an array of
571 format characters with an empty item at the end. A
572 single-character format would cause programs using this
573 function to segfault because the algorithm used to decide on
574 the length of the array mistakenly created a single-item array
575 when the format string was one character. This eventually
576 caused problems when the program attempted to test item+1
579 Thu Apr 06 21:53:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
581 * Richard Coleman threw out a lot of old MH-specific files in nmh.
582 Much of the stuff, indeed, is not worth saving, but there are
583 nuggets that are very worthwhile, and should probably be added
584 back in. Most important, IMHO, are the MH change logs, as they
585 can help answer questions like "Why is this code like this?" or
586 "How long has this been broken?" or "What was this ever used for?"
588 I've added a new file to the nmh tree called
589 ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6. It's cobbled together from the
590 mh-6.8.4/papers/mh*/MHCHANGES files. I've re-ordered the entries
591 to go from newest at the top to oldest at the bottom to match the
592 ChangeLog convention. Unfortunately there are no change logs for
593 versions of MH prior to 3 in the MH tar files available at
594 <ftp://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/mh>. Also, it appears to me that there
595 are MH-6.6 changes that aren't documented in the logs.
597 I've also added ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html. This is
598 based on mh-6.8.4/papers/changes/mh-changes.ms. The nroff format
599 and its "catman"-type output are a pain to deal with, but I was
600 loath to throw away the formatting, so I converted the file to
601 HTML. The only actual markup in the body are the "<B>" and "<U>"
602 tags, and "<" and ">" instead of '<' and '>', so it's quite
603 doable to view the file in plain ASCII mode as well. Note that
604 some of the changes this file documents as having been made in
605 MH-6.8.4 may not be present in nmh -- Richard started with 6.8.3
606 and later put in certain 6.8.4 stuff.
608 Wed Apr 05 21:09:28 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
610 * Applied Eric Schnoebelen <eric@cirr.com>'s mhshowsbr.c patch
611 fixing apparent bugs in Dan Winship's new security quoting code:
613 Since upgrading, I've been getting the following errors
614 while attempting to process some MIME messages:
616 (1) Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
621 (2) line 1/10 (END)Segmentation fault (core dumped)
623 (2) appears to be due to the testing of an unset pointer in
624 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux(). (1) appears to be caused by
625 mis-quoting a filename being handed to the shell in
626 mhshowsbr.c:show_content_aux().
628 Resolving the pointer reference issue in
629 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux() turned up a similar mis-quoting
630 problem in the routine.
632 Tue Mar 28 16:17:39 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
634 * Applied Todd.Miller@courtesan.com's patch to dropsbr.c to
635 prevent core dumping on packf. Here's the note from his message:
637 Since sizeof(buffer) == sizeof(tmpbuffer) packf will dump
638 core on a file w/o a From line with a line >= BUFSIZ.
639 I noticed this because I had a junk file in my mail
642 Fri Mar 17 11:59:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
644 * wesley.craig@umich.edu did not document his previous KPOP patch,
645 so I did so, and asked him to check what I wrote. Unfortunately
646 he didn't notice my misunderstanding of his patch. I wrote that
647 if you #define POPSERVICE "kpop", inc and msgchk will use KPOP
648 exclusively, but if you leave it as "pop3", you can use Wesley's
649 new -kpop switch on a given invocation. Instead, however, -kpop
650 turned out to be necessary on every invocation, and a KPOP user
651 complained. Applied Wesley's new patch, which makes things work
652 like I thought his original patch did. After that, did one more
653 clarifying pass to the documentation in inc.man and msgchk.man.
655 Wed Mar 15 18:45:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
657 * When I fixed the long-standing makedir() bugs in January, I had
658 the code call strtoul(..., 0), which I believed to be safe as all
659 modes specified as ASCII constants in the nmh code started with a
660 leading zero (signifying octal), which I did as it would work if
661 internal constants were ever changed to hex. Unfortunately I was
662 unaware of the "Folder-Protect:" .mh_profile entry, which
663 mh-profile.man documents as an octal-only constant, with no
664 leading zero required. I've changed the strtoul() call to an
665 atooi() call and removed the misleading leading zeroes on the
666 ASCII octal constants in the code and man pages. Also changed the
667 "Folder-Protect:" example in the man page to something more
668 interesting than a duplication of the default.
670 * When I added my --enable-masquerade option, you'll note that I
671 didn't make it --enable-nmh-masquerade. I find the --enable-nmh-*
672 options too wordy and I'm not sure why Richard went that route.
673 I've renamed them to just --enable-*, but the old versions will
674 still work as well (they just aren't advertised).
676 * Added a line to the "nmh configuration" output saying whether
679 * Added a new README.developers file. From the file:
681 This file is intended to provide a few tips for anyone doing
682 development on nmh. Developers who learn things "the hard
683 way" about the nmh codebase (as opposed to local info best
684 encoded in a comment) are encouraged to share their wisdom
687 Currently the topics are "autoconf files" and "directory structure".
689 Tue Mar 14 12:41:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
691 * Applied, after some finessing,
692 Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s --with-smtpservers patch:
694 Here's a patch that allows you to add
696 --with-smtpservers=<some.host.name>
698 to the ./configure command line to set the "servers: " line in
699 etc/mts.conf. Around here, we use "mailhost" so that all
700 machines in the current domain just talk to a central machine
701 and nothing else runs an MTA. Now, I can use
703 --with-smtpservers=mailhost
705 instead of having to remember to fix this by hand (and often
706 forgetting to do so!).
708 * Inspired by Simon's patch, added an --enable-masquerade option
709 to configure. It will set the "masquerade:" line of mts.conf.
710 You may specify a subset of the three types of masquerading, like
711 --enable-masquerade="draft_from mmailid", or leave off explicit
712 arguments to enable all three types.
714 * Alphabetized the --enable and --with options in configure.in and
715 INSTALL and added documentation of the two new options to the latter.
717 * Added new dependency for mts.conf: Makefile. If this isn't
718 done, then when you reconfigure nmh with new values for
719 --enable-masquerade or --with-smtpservers, you'll fail to get an
720 updated copy of mts.conf.
722 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtimep.lex patch:
724 It seems that some MUA's didn't handle y2k very well - ELM
725 seems to be one of them, and Ultrix's DXmail (based on MH!).
726 I've got a few emails this month that look like:
728 575 Jan 00 Xxxxxx Xxxx 3603 ...
730 22+ Jan 00 Xxx Xxxxx 1771 ...
732 The first has "15 Jan 100" as the date and the second has
733 "19 Jan 00" as the date. The following works around this so
734 that scan, show, sortm, etc work ok.
736 I put Simon's patch under the control of a new #define called
737 FIX_NON_Y2K_COMPLIANT_MUA_DATES. There's some commentary in
738 acconfig.h about when you might not want to #define it.
740 * Created new dtimep.c-lexed with Simon's change using dtimep.lex
741 lexed on Solaris 2.6. Added missing dependency in
742 zotnet/tws/Makefile.in for dtimep.c: dtimep.c-lexed.
744 * Added scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD format files.
746 Mon Mar 13 21:32:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
748 * Applied Sullivan N. Beck <sbeck@cise.ufl.edu>'s mhshow-suffix patch:
750 With the patch below, you can add lines like:
752 mhshow-suffix-application/msword: .doc
753 mhshow-suffix-application/PostScript: .ps
755 to the mhn.defaults file to append the given suffix to a
756 scratch file. This allows applications which require a
757 certain suffix to run properly.
759 * Removed -force_html from lynx entry in mhn.defaults.sh (I
760 believe older versions of lynx lack that option) and added
761 "mhshow-suffix-text/html: .html".
763 * Modified username_extension masquerading to only use the
764 extended address on generated [Resent-]From: lines and SMTP
765 envelope From:. With Neil's original implementation, nmh's global
766 idea of the username was changed, which would result in inc lying
767 and saying you had no new mail because it was looking for a
768 mailbox called, for instance, "dan-nmh" (where username was "dan"
769 and $USERNAME_EXTENSION was "-nmh").
771 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtime.c patch:
773 There's a wrap-around problem that affects the implementation
774 of Zeller's congruence in dtime.c. This causes the day-of-week
775 calculations to fail for dates after Feb 29, 2000 (probably up
776 until some year far in the future).
778 Mon Mar 06 12:20:20 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
780 * Applied Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s msh.c patch:
782 I finally tracked down the problem in msh that was causing
783 errors whenever I tried to examine a 'mmdf' style mailbox.
785 It turns out that not enough memory was being allocated with
786 calloc(), causing memory pointers to be overwritten and
789 Fri Mar 03 16:07:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
791 * Changed the new "plussed_user" option to mts.conf's
792 "masquerade:" to "username_extension" after getting feedback from
793 qmail users, who use '-' as a separator rather than '+'. Removed
794 checking of $USERPLUS variable. Now check $USERNAME_EXTENSION,
795 which needs to include the appropriate separator for your MTA
796 ('-', '+', or whatever) as its first character.
798 Thu Mar 02 23:04:30 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
800 * Added a new "boolean" type to mh.h and TRUE and FALSE constants.
802 * Added a note to DIFFERENCES stating that it's out-of-date
803 (Richard was the last one to update it) and that we should
804 consider only documenting incompatibilities with MH there.
806 * Implemented (and documented) a third kind of username
807 masquerading: "plussed user" masquerading. This one was suggested
808 by Neil Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>. It's based on sendmail's
809 "plussed user" feature, where mail sent to <user>+<string> will be
810 delivered to <user>. When it's enabled, it's controlled by the
811 $USERPLUS environment variable. How is it enabled? Well, that
814 * Renamed the "mmailid:" setting in mts.conf to "masquerade:", and
815 changed it so that rather than being a boolean, it can be set to
816 any combination of the three values "draft_from", "mmailid", and
817 "plussed_user". Thus it is now possible to enable the three types
818 of masquerading individually.
820 * Fixed a bug with "mmailid" masquerading (dating back to MH?)
821 where if it was turned on, ','s would no longer be considered
822 GECOS field delimiters.
824 Wed Mar 01 23:30:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
826 * Changed the GECOS-field '&' translation behavior to be
827 controlled by the BSD42 #define rather than GCOS_HACK, since it's
828 apparently always appropriate on OSes where BSD42 is #defined, and
829 never appropriate on any other OSes. Thanks to Kimmo Suominen for
830 responding to my "What is this code here for?" comment in mts.c
831 and explaining the feature.
833 Mon Feb 28 21:50:29 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
835 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3+dev (ideally this should be
836 done by whoever makes a release tar file, immediately after doing
839 * Applied Paul Fox <pgf-spam@foxharp.boston.ma.us>'s scansbr.c
840 patch, posted to comp.mail.mh, which he says prevents loss of mail
841 when inc'ing into a full filesystem.
843 * Changed "echo > stamp-h.in" in Makefile.in to "date > stamp-h.in"
844 so that stamp-h.in will be different each time configure.in and
845 related files are changed, making it easier to check it in (which
846 is necessary to prevent unnecessary autoconf calls).
848 * My declaration of initgroups() in slocal.c to eliminate the "no
849 prototype" warning wasn't portable (FreeBSD 3.[23] choked). Now
850 use AC_EGREP_HEADER to see where initgroups() is declared, if
853 Sun Feb 20 12:17:15 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
855 * Fix security hole in mhshowsbr.c which allowed untrusted shell
858 * Released nmh 1.0.3.
860 Thu Feb 10 10:54:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
862 * Oops. %-escapes on mhstore lines in mhn.defaults.sh should not
863 be surrounded by single quotes, as a shell is not spawned when
864 just saving files, and the filenames will end up with literal
865 quotes embedded in them.
867 Fri Feb 04 12:29:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
869 * Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
870 got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
871 the -help output. One theory is that they were making reference
872 to the fact that clearly you know about the -help option since
873 you're currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea
874 to overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
875 supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
878 The other theory is that because you can say something like
879 "mhstore -" and get "mhstore: - ambiguous. It matches" followed
880 by the same list of switches you get with -help, they were saying
881 you can "sorta" abbreviate "-help" as "-". You don't get the
882 "Usage:" string, though, so it's not really the same thing.
884 Thu Feb 03 17:52:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
886 * Applied wesley.craig@umich.edu's KPOP patches. According to him:
888 The following patch fixes a problem with requesting a
889 service key for a machine that has multiple 'A' records. It
890 also makes "-kpop" a command line option, for users who
891 would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".
893 Did no testing of the new features, as I don't have access to a
896 * Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
898 * Modified INSTALL and config.h.in to reflect the new -kpop feature.
900 Fri Jan 28 17:39:24 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
902 * All %-escapes in mhn.defaults that actually expand to something
903 should be surrounded by single quotes. Added quotes to the ones
904 in mhn.defaults.sh that were missing them.
906 * Added check for lynx to write mhshow-show-text/html line in
909 Thu Jan 27 12:22:25 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
911 * makedir() had multiple bugs dating back to MH. An octal
912 constant was apparently being interpreted as decimal, resulting in
913 directories with no user read or execute permissions, making
914 nested directory creation fail. And there wasn't even an
915 _attempt_ to set desired permissions (e.g. from "Folder-Protect:"
916 in .mh_profile) on the outer directories of a nested directory.
918 * A second `make install' would always fail because the check for
919 whether mh_profile.5 existed was written incorrectly.
921 Wed Jan 26 02:22:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
923 * Added documentation on both types of masquerading to post's man
926 Tue Jan 25 22:58:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
928 * Doug's portability fix of my setgid inc autodetection had a
929 caching bug -- if you re-ran configure, uip/Makefile would be
930 corrupted, and installation would bomb out on OSes where inc needs
933 * Implemented a new kind of email address masquerading. Usually,
934 when a user writes a custom "From:" header in a draft, nmh uses it
935 rather than generating one. However, the user's true address is
936 used in the SMTP envelope "From:" and is revealed in the "Sender:"
937 header. Now, when mmailid is set to non-zero, the envelope
938 "From:" uses the address specified in the draft "From:" header,
939 and there is no "Sender:" header. This is useful when sending on
940 behalf of a remote POP3 account or when remote mail robots
941 incorrectly use the envelope "From:" in preference to the body
942 "From:". This processing has only been implemented for post, not
943 for the undocumented spost (which was already missing some "From:"
944 processing that post has).
946 Mon Jan 24 22:26:06 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
948 * Got rid of the rest of the gcc -Wall warnings that I didn't have
949 time for on 1999-07-15 (and, it would seem, some new ones people
950 introduced since then). The primary ones were the warnings that
951 default prototypes were being used for [v]snprintf() and
952 str[n]casecmp(). As of right now, there are _no_ compilation
953 warnings except on dtimep.c-lexed (at least under AIX 4.1.5 and
956 Sun Jan 2 23:42:18 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
958 * Move mhtest from bindir to libdir.
960 * Move sendfiles from libdir to bindir.
962 * Updated sendfiles manpage to reflect this change.
964 * Added documentation for -build and -file switches to repl and
965 forw manpages (patch from Peter Maydell).
967 * Fixed interaction between specifying -cc in profile and -group on
970 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
972 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
973 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
974 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
977 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
979 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
980 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
981 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
982 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
983 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
984 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).
986 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
988 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
990 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
992 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
993 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
994 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
995 caught again. This works for now.
997 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
999 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1001 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
1002 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
1004 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1006 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
1007 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
1009 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
1011 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
1013 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1015 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
1016 changes. Both need more cleanup.
1018 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1020 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
1021 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
1022 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
1023 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
1024 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
1027 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1029 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
1030 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
1031 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
1033 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
1034 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
1037 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1039 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
1040 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
1041 to a directory on another device with more free space.
1043 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1045 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
1046 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
1048 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1050 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
1053 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
1054 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
1056 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
1057 macros, regardless of platform.
1059 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
1060 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1062 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
1063 with x-conversions=gzip.
1065 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1067 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
1070 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
1071 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
1072 implicit definition of ioctl().
1074 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
1075 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
1076 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
1077 want to mess with them.
1079 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1081 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
1082 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
1084 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
1085 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
1087 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
1088 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
1089 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
1091 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
1092 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
1093 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
1095 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
1096 function initgroups.
1098 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
1101 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
1102 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
1105 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
1106 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
1109 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
1110 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
1114 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1116 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
1117 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
1118 preventing compilation on at least linux.
1120 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
1121 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
1123 Thu Sep 09 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1125 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
1127 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
1128 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
1129 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
1130 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
1132 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
1133 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
1135 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1137 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
1139 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1141 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
1142 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
1144 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1146 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
1147 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
1149 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
1150 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
1151 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
1152 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
1154 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
1155 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
1157 Sat Jun 09 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1159 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
1160 substitute it for mktemp if available.
1162 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1164 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
1165 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
1168 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
1170 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
1172 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
1174 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
1175 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
1177 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
1178 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
1179 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
1181 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
1182 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
1183 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
1185 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
1186 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
1187 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1189 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
1190 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
1193 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
1194 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1196 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
1197 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1199 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
1200 <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1202 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
1203 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
1204 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1206 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
1207 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1209 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
1210 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
1211 <elleron@servtech.com>.
1213 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
1214 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
1217 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
1218 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
1220 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
1221 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
1222 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
1223 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
1225 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
1226 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
1228 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1232 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
1233 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
1234 would not be changed.
1236 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
1237 one from the Apache web server.
1239 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
1240 (this should have been done a long time ago).
1242 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
1243 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
1244 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
1246 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
1248 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
1250 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
1251 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
1254 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
1255 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
1256 removes a bad race condition.
1258 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
1261 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
1262 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
1263 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
1265 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
1266 sequence information.
1268 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
1269 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
1271 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
1274 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
1277 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
1279 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
1280 interpret 034 as octal.
1282 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
1284 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
1285 mhstore, and mhbuild.
1287 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
1288 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
1290 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
1291 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
1293 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
1294 in the c_cefile structure when building.
1296 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
1297 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
1299 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
1300 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
1301 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
1303 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
1304 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
1305 and mhshow. Updated man pages
1307 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
1309 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
1311 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
1312 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
1315 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
1317 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
1318 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
1320 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
1321 header field information.
1323 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
1324 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
1326 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
1327 values when parsing a content.
1329 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
1330 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
1332 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
1333 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
1335 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
1336 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1338 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
1339 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
1341 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
1343 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
1345 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
1347 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
1349 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
1350 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
1353 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
1354 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
1356 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
1357 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
1358 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
1359 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
1360 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
1361 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
1364 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1366 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
1367 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
1368 buffer length checks for this parameter.
1370 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
1371 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
1373 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1375 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
1376 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
1377 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
1378 of the limits on the length of command lines.
1380 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
1381 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
1384 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
1385 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
1386 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
1387 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
1390 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1392 * Released nmh-0.27.
1394 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
1395 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
1397 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
1398 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
1399 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
1400 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
1403 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
1404 mhbuild returns an error.
1406 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
1407 rename the draft file.
1409 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
1410 use a global variable.
1412 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
1413 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
1415 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
1416 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
1418 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
1419 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
1420 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
1422 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
1423 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
1425 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
1426 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
1429 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
1430 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
1433 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
1434 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
1436 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
1437 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
1438 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
1440 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
1441 to new function output_content_folder.
1443 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
1444 new function output_content_file.
1446 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
1447 to new function parse_format_string.
1449 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
1450 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
1451 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
1452 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
1454 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
1455 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
1456 message/external file from ftp.
1458 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
1459 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
1460 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
1462 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
1463 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
1466 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
1469 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
1470 new file mhstoresbr.c
1472 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
1475 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
1476 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
1478 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
1479 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
1481 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
1482 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
1483 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
1485 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
1487 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
1489 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
1490 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
1493 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
1494 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
1496 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
1499 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
1501 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1503 * Released nmh-0.26.
1505 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
1506 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
1507 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
1508 is still the same (dashstuffing).
1510 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
1511 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
1512 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
1513 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
1514 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
1516 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
1517 But it is not on by default.
1519 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
1520 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
1522 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
1524 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
1526 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
1528 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
1530 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
1531 number of the "cur" message when packing.
1533 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1535 * Released nmh-0.25.
1537 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
1538 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
1539 uses the original name of the library.
1541 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
1542 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
1545 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
1546 list_content and list_debug.
1548 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
1550 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
1551 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.
1553 1998-02-27 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1555 * Released nmh-0.24.
1557 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
1559 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
1560 are given, that order doesn't matter.
1562 * Fix bug in seq_list.c when realloc'ing for
1563 large sequence line.
1565 1998-02-23 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1567 * Released nmh-0.23.
1569 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
1571 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
1572 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan
1573 content, decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary
1574 string). I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
1576 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
1577 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
1580 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
1582 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
1584 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
1586 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
1587 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
1589 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
1590 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.
1592 * Add note to MACHINES file that on Linux, configure
1593 doesn't find the functions sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
1595 * Fix configuration for machines that don't have (or find)
1596 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
1598 1998-02-11 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1600 * Released nmh-0.22.
1602 * Add a configure check for sigsetjmp. Add some conditional
1603 #define's in h/signals.h in case it's not found.
1605 * Added additional notes about -auto switch in mhn man page.
1607 * Added note about MM_CHARSET environment variable to
1608 mh-profile(5) man page.
1610 * Fix signal problem in mhn.c (change setjmp/longjmp to
1611 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp).
1613 1998-02-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1615 * Released nmh-0.22-pre1.
1617 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
1618 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
1620 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
1622 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
1623 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
1624 entry point for parsing MIME files.
1626 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
1627 source message on the standard input.
1629 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
1631 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
1632 rather than -rfc934mode.
1634 * Fix mhbuild, so that Content-Description and RFC-822 comments
1635 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
1638 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
1639 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).
1641 * Restore HP specific code to zotnet/tws/lexstring.c. Apparently
1644 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1646 * Released nmh-0.21.
1648 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
1649 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.
1651 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what transfer
1654 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what character set
1655 to use for text contents.
1657 * Removed old hpux specific code from zotnet/tws/lexstring.c
1659 1998-02-02 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1661 * Released nmh-0.21-pre2.
1663 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
1665 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
1666 header fields as per RFC-2047.
1668 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
1669 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
1670 spaces between encoded word are.
1672 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
1674 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
1675 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
1677 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
1678 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
1679 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
1681 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
1683 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
1684 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
1686 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.
1688 * Added support for %(decode) to fmtdump.c.
1690 * check_charset() now accepts US-ASCII as a subset of any
1691 ISO-8859-X character set.
1693 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
1696 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
1697 permissions, not write permissions.
1699 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
1700 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
1702 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
1705 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1707 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
1709 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
1710 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
1712 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
1713 message contains valid character set.
1715 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
1716 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
1718 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
1719 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
1721 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
1722 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
1723 between an encoded word and normal text.
1725 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
1726 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
1728 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
1729 as a RFC-2047 header field.
1731 * The command install-mh now recognizes the switches -version
1734 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
1735 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
1738 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
1739 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
1741 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
1742 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
1744 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
1746 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1748 * Released nmh-0.20.
1750 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
1752 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.
1754 * Changed the default format file for mhl (mhl.format) to
1755 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
1756 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
1758 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
1759 and the To: line was missing.
1761 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
1763 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1765 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
1767 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
1768 watch the POP transaction.
1770 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
1771 first, and use it if available.
1773 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
1774 first, and use it if available.
1776 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1778 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
1780 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
1781 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
1782 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
1785 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
1786 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
1787 returns the state FLDPLUS.
1789 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
1790 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
1793 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
1795 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
1796 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
1798 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
1800 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
1801 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
1803 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
1804 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
1805 message to which you are replying.
1807 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
1808 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
1809 making group replies.
1811 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
1813 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1815 * Released nmh-0.19.
1817 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
1818 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
1820 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
1821 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
1822 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
1823 to the end of the man page.
1825 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
1826 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
1827 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
1828 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
1829 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
1830 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
1832 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
1835 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
1836 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
1837 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
1839 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
1840 the next available number above the message number you wish
1843 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
1844 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
1846 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
1847 file sbr/seq_print.c
1849 * flist will now update the current folder.
1851 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
1852 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
1853 but now undocumented.
1855 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
1858 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
1859 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
1861 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
1863 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
1864 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
1866 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1868 * Released nmh-0.18.
1870 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
1871 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
1872 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
1874 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
1875 retains the public/private status of sequences.
1877 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
1878 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
1879 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
1880 previous public/private status.
1882 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
1885 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
1888 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
1889 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
1890 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
1892 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
1893 take option to determine whether it should get current
1894 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
1895 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
1897 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
1899 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
1900 wait for stopped processes.
1902 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
1903 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
1905 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1907 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
1909 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
1910 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
1912 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
1913 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
1915 * Change the way that memory for message status is
1916 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
1917 the folder/message structure. This required changing
1918 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
1920 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
1923 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
1926 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
1928 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
1929 the debugging output.
1931 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
1932 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
1934 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1936 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
1938 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
1939 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
1941 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
1943 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
1944 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
1945 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
1946 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
1947 in the given sequence.
1949 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
1950 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
1951 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
1952 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
1953 subdirectories of a given directory.
1955 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
1956 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
1957 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
1959 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
1960 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
1962 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
1964 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
1967 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
1968 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
1969 fields are now calculated at runtime.
1971 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
1972 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
1973 are calculated at runtime.
1975 Sun Nov 30 19:14:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1977 * Released nmh-0.18-pre2.
1979 * Add paragraph to man page for install-mh and to INSTALL file
1980 about checking for global mh.profile.
1982 * Renamed m_find() to context_find().
1983 Renamed m_replace() to context_replace().
1984 Renamed m_delete() to context_del().
1985 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
1986 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
1987 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
1989 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
1990 adding message to folder itself.
1992 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
1993 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
1994 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
1997 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
1998 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
2001 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
2002 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
2003 is the same as the direct smtp code).
2005 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
2006 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
2008 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
2009 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
2010 code to use it yet).
2012 Thu Nov 13 18:42:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2014 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.
2016 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never
2017 called with a value larger than 30 mintues.
2019 * Fixed race condition in rmm and refile, so that
2020 context is updated before external rmmproc is called.
2022 * Removed all the OVERHEAD code.
2024 * Move code to add message to folder from refile.c
2027 Fri Jul 25 19:39:29 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2029 * Did some rearranging of the internals of inc.c.
2031 * Make -inplace the default for anno, forw, dist, and repl.
2033 * Changed --enable-smtp to --with-mts={smtp,sendmail}
2035 * Created new directory mts/sendmail for direct sendmail
2036 interface (although it currently still uses SMTP).
2038 * Removed all the TMA (trusted mail agent) code
2040 * Removed all the TTYD (terminal access daemon) code
2042 * Removed all the MF (uucp filtering) code.
2044 * Removed all the code for BERK.
2046 * Removed all the code for stand-alone delivery (MHMTS).
2048 * Split the file mts/sendmail/smail.c into sendmail.c and
2049 smtp.c. Changed the name of the directory to mts/smtp.
2051 * Changed autoconf to use @sysconfdir@ for location of
2052 configuration files.
2054 * Changed #define in mhn.c from FTP to BUILTIN_FTP.
2056 Mon Jul 21 03:22:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2058 * Released nmh-0.17.
2060 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
2062 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
2063 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
2065 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
2068 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
2069 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
2071 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
2072 number of refiled message.
2074 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
2076 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
2077 for return value of wait().
2079 * Change configure to also check /bin for "more".
2081 Sat Jul 12 00:02:23 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2083 * Released nmh-0.16.
2085 Mon Jun 23 20:13:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2087 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
2089 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
2090 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
2091 deal with binary messages, yet).
2093 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
2095 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
2097 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
2098 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
2099 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
2100 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
2101 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
2102 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
2104 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
2105 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
2107 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
2108 From MH-6.8.4 patch.
2110 * Fix double free of ctinfo in user_content when using
2111 #forw with single message. From John MacMillan (and
2114 * Changed -mhnproc switch for show, to -showmimeproc.
2116 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".
2118 * Added "mime" option to "whatnow", which calls the program
2119 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
2122 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
2125 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
2127 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
2128 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
2129 which used unsigned chars by default.
2131 Sat Jun 21 01:21:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2133 * Released nmh-0.15.
2135 * Added new form "scan.unseen" to distribution. It marks messages
2136 which are in any sequence in Unseen-Sequence.
2138 * Do some rearranging of date/time code in zotnet/tws/dtime.c
2140 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
2142 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
2145 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
2146 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
2147 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
2149 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
2150 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
2152 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
2154 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
2155 they conflict with defines on AIX.
2157 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
2158 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
2159 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
2160 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
2162 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
2163 and put in own subroutine.
2165 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
2166 and put in own subroutine.
2168 * Moved code to remove messages from folder into own
2169 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and
2170 refile.c to use new routine.
2172 Fri May 16 06:09:31 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2174 * Renamed m_seqok to seq_nameok.
2176 * Changed m_setunseen, msh, mshcmds, flist, and scan to use
2179 * Changed m_seqflag to return the number of a sequence rather
2180 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
2181 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
2183 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
2186 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before
2187 adding message to sequence.
2189 * Renamed function m_setvis to m_setunseen, and renamed
2190 corresponding file in sbr.
2192 * Renamed function m_setseq to m_setprev, and renamed corresponding
2195 * Changed mark.c and pick.c to use m_seqaddsel and m_seqdelsel.
2197 * Added new function m_seqdelsel to m_seqdel.c, which deletes
2198 all selected messages from a sequence.
2200 * Added new function m_seqaddsel to m_seqadd.c, which adds all
2201 selected messages to a sequence.
2203 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,
2206 Thu May 15 00:53:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2208 * Renamed function pack_folder to m_packfolder, and moved it
2209 from uip/folder.c into its own file sbr/m_packfolder.c
2211 Wed May 14 23:38:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2213 * Changed function m_gmsg to m_readfolder. Renamed file
2214 sbr/m_gmsg.c to sbr/m_readfolder.c.

2223 * Released nmh-0.14.
2225 * Comment out configure test and code for tgetent to allocate its
2226 own termcap buffer when passed a NULL argument.
2228 Sat Apr 26 03:46:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2230 * Added new options `-checkmime', `-nocheckmime', and `-mhnproc'
2231 to show. Restructured code to handle options to various
2232 `procs' better. Deprecated `-noshowproc' option and NOMHNPROC
2233 environment variable.
2235 * Added new man page `mh-draft' which documents the
2236 draft folder facility in nmh.
2238 * Renamed fmtsbr.h to fmt_scan.h. Renamed fmtcompile.h
2241 * split fmtsbr.c into fmt_scan.c and fmt_new.c. Renamed

2245 * `send -help' wasn't showing the -(no)mime and -split
2248 Fri Apr 25 02:50:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2250 * Released nmh-0.13.
2252 * Changed mhpath so it doesn't abort if a message sequence
2253 such as "mhpath all" expands to more than 1000 messages.
2254 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
2255 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
2258 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
2259 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
2261 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2263 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if
2264 necessary. So `folders' can now handle more than 300 folders.
2266 Tue Apr 22 14:01:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2268 * Change configure to use a compile check to see if the tm struct
2269 has tm_gmtoff, rather than using egrep.
2271 Mon Apr 21 02:19:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2273 * Released nmh-0.12.
2275 * Had set_exists and unset_exists macros backwards.
2277 * Released nmh-0.11.
2279 Thu Apr 10 02:39:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2281 * Added documentation to mh-profile.man about the various
2282 `procs' (mhlproc, showproc, lproc, etc...).
2284 * Replace the bit twiddling for SELECTED, UNSEEN, and
2285 mp->attrstats with macros.
2287 * If system doesn't have SIGEMT (like Linux), then use SIGTERM
2290 * Change fstat to stat in m_gmsg.c since Linux wants
2293 * Merge Linux patch sent in by Michel Oosterhof (original
2294 patch from bsa@kf8nh.wariat.org).
2296 * Document an undocumented MH feature. mhn -form mhl.null
2297 will suppress the display of the message header.
2299 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
2301 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c
2302 and mshcmds.c, rather than hard coding in /bin/cat.
2304 * Add mhnproc to the list of `procs' in mh-profile.man.
2306 * Add configure test for lorder and tsort commands.
2308 * Commented out the padding in the `msgs` struct in h/mh.h
2310 * Change m_gmsg.c to allocate elements to the `info' array by
2311 500 elements at a time (rather than MAXFOLDERS / 5).
2313 * Add note to man page for mhmail that zero length messages are
2314 not sent. Need to use -body "" to send empty messages.
2316 * zotnet/mts/mts.c : compare character with '\0', not NULL.
2318 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
2320 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
2321 folder/message structure when done with folder.
2323 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is
2324 defined even if message is missing "From " line.
2326 Mon Mar 31 03:37:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2328 * Released nmh-0.10.

2335 Thu Mar 20 03:21:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2337 * Reversed previous decision to retain "From " lines in slocal.
2338 The "From " line is now removed from all messages.
2340 * inc now saves the date from the "From " envelope in the
2341 Delivery-Date header for all messages.
2343 * sbr/m_getfld.c: Clean up processing of Return-Path and
2344 Delivery-Date from the "From " envelope.
2346 Mon Mar 17 19:03:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2348 * client.c: cast iaddr to int before comparing return value
2349 of inet_addr with NOTOK.
2351 Tue Mar 11 04:38:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2353 * Grep test for signal names was failing on some OS'es because
2354 of missing tabs in regex.
2356 Sat Mar 8 01:58:22 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2358 * Released nmh-0.09.

2376 * ruserpass.c : removed conflicting prototypes.
2378 * rcvtty.c : Fixed rcvtty to obey terminal permissions granted

2381 Mon Mar 3 00:18:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2383 * rcvtty.c : Changed to use #define UTMP_FILE (if exists) rather
2384 than hard coded "/etc/utmp".
2386 * Released nmh-0.08.
2388 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
2389 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of
2390 locking database itself.
2392 Thu Feb 27 05:28:09 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2394 * Added slocal action `mmdf' to deliver to a file in mmdf format.
2396 * Changed the slocal actions `file' and `>' to always deliver in
2397 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
2400 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
2401 rather than mmdf format.
2403 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
2404 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
2405 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
2406 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
2408 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
2410 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2412 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
2415 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2416 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2417 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
2419 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2420 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2421 rcvpack so you can choose the preferred format.
2423 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2425 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
2426 can still easily change this in config.h).
2428 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
2429 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
2430 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
2432 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2434 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather
2435 than tzset and external timezone variable.
2437 Thu Feb 13 00:35:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2439 * Fixed typo in ruserpass.c in the variable toktabs.
2441 * When ruserpass was added to LIBOBJS, it was missing

2446 Tue Feb 11 01:29:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2448 * Add check to configure, so that if ruserpass, or _ruserpass
2449 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
2451 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
2452 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
2455 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
2456 built-in FTP client in mhn.
2458 * Added configure check for ushort and ulong. Change code
2459 to use ushort/ulong rather than u_short/u_long.
2461 * A couple of small cleanups in locking code.
2463 * Added configure check for gmtoff element in struct tm.
2465 * Added configure check for tzset.

2469 * Released nmh-0.06.
2471 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
2472 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
2474 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
2475 many such machines around anymore.
2477 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
2478 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
2480 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
2481 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
2483 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2485 * Check lex generated file in zotnet/tws and use
2486 pre-generated version if necessary.
2488 * Released nmh-0.05.
2490 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
2491 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
2492 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
2493 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
2495 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
2496 be linked in one pass.
2498 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2500 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
2501 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
2503 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2505 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
2507 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2509 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
2510 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
2511 become the current folder.
2513 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2515 * Released nmh-0.04.
2517 * Define ospeed and PC in termsbr.c is OS doesn't have
2520 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2522 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
2523 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
2524 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
2526 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2528 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
2529 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
2531 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2533 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
2534 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
2537 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
2538 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
2540 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2542 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
2543 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
2544 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
2545 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
2546 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
2547 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
2549 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2551 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
2552 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
2554 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
2555 a file (currently need to specify full path).
2557 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2559 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
2560 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
2562 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2564 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
2565 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
2566 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
2568 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2570 * Released nmh-0.03.
2572 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
2573 .mh_sequence file existed.
2575 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
2576 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
2578 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
2579 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
2582 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2584 * Changed flist option -unseen to -[no]all. Cleaned up
2587 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2589 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
2590 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
2591 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
2593 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2595 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
2596 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
2597 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
2599 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2601 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL
2602 and allocate its own buffer. Borrowed from zsh.
2604 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
2606 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2608 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
2609 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
2610 directory from where the source code is located.
2612 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2614 * Released nmh-0.02.
2616 Wed Jan 1 17:41:52 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

2621 Tue Dec 31 03:07:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2623 * Changed code to use strerror, rather than using sys_errlist
2624 and sys_nerr directly.
2626 Mon Dec 30 02:15:25 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2628 * -compat switch from install-mh removed.
2630 * Changed the default POP port from "pop" to "pop3".
2632 Sat Dec 28 13:25:05 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2634 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
2635 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
2636 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
2637 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
2638 rather than in script.
2640 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2642 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
2644 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with
2645 macro defined on Solaris.
2647 Thu Dec 26 02:50:15 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2649 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
2650 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
2652 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
2653 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
2654 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
2655 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
2658 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2660 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
2661 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.
2663 * Fixed configure test so that termcap variable ospeed is
2666 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2668 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
2670 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included
2671 in mhn.c. Changed md5 to use memset and memcpy.
2673 Fri Dec 20 02:29:37 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2675 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
2676 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
2678 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2680 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
2681 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
2682 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
2683 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
2684 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
2685 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
2687 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2689 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
2691 * Released nmh-0.01.
2693 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
2694 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
2695 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
2698 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2700 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
2703 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2705 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
2706 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
2708 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2710 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
2711 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
2712 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
2713 script to find_program.
2715 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2717 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
2718 speed up -recurse option.
2720 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
2721 yet, but it compiles :-)
2723 * Changed default location for install to
2724 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
2725 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
2726 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
2729 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
2730 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
2731 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
