1 Tue Jan 23 20:26:15 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
3 * etc/digestcomps tried to force dates into a
4 19xx when it's not necessary.
6 Fri Jan 19 21:22:08 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
8 * First round of manpage updates finished. They
9 are standardized on -man macros, with minimal
12 * man/tmac.h.in is no longer needed, since the
13 manpages do not depend on them anymore. Note:
14 strict "man" programs that didn't allow ".so"
15 sourcing outside the man tree will now format
16 the man pages correctly.
18 * man/vmh.1 is no longer built, since uip/vmh isn't
20 Tue Jan 9 6:01:22 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
22 * Finished manpages ali-prev
24 * Removed deprecated files from the repository.
25 Specifically, those rooted in zotnet/ and mts/sendmail
26 mts/mmdf. "cvs update -dP" will give a pruned directory
29 * Updated docs/Makefile.in to include README.manpages, and
30 uip/Makefile.in to include popi.c (which isn't being built,
31 though). This allows "make nmhdist" to create an archive that
32 is file-for-file identical to the current cvs repository.
34 Sun Dec 31 20:48:50 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
36 * Create docs/README.manpages, which details
37 the formatting rules I've been using.
41 Sat Dec 30 9:50:13 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
43 * Created a new file "DATE" to hold the date
44 of the most recent nmh release. This date will be
47 * Updated docs/README.developers to add the step
48 of updating DATE. Also, updated configure to
49 read in the contents of the file as the variable
52 * Started work on updating man pages, with only
53 ali finished so far. Changes: 1) no dependence
54 on an external macro file, 2) uses only
55 -man macros (although I may be mistaken in this),
56 3) syntax in the SYNOPSIS is a little more
57 in line with standard UNIX documentation, such as
58 bold flags and italicized parameters.
60 Sun Dec 24 10:06:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
62 * Updated INSTALL with information about the
63 --with-locking option.
65 * Fixed the Hesiod tests in configure.in. In
66 systems where res_send was in -lresolv, this
67 information was not being communicated to the
68 HESIOD_LIBS var. Now, if res_send is not found
69 in the default libraries, it's assumed to be
70 in -lresolv, and thus -lresolv is appended to
71 HESIOD_LIBS, which will need that to avoid
72 undefined symbols problems.
74 * Fixed the Kerberos tests in configure.in. New
75 versions of Kerberos 5 have renamed -lcrypto
76 to -lk5crypto (circa krb5 1.1 or thereabouts). The
77 new test tries to determine if -lk5crypto exists. If so,
78 this is a new krb5 system. If not, test for -lcrypto
79 and the rest of old krb5. If that fails, look
80 for a genuine krb4 installation.
82 Fri Dec 22 22:08:51 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
84 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in msgchk.man.
85 -snoop was documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
87 Fri Dec 22 23:42:16 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
89 * Made a new ./configure option called
90 "--with-locking" that allows the file
91 locking mechanism to be chosen there instead of
92 requiring a manual edit of config.h.
94 * If the option is not explicitly set, or an
95 invalid option is specified, "dot" locking is
96 chosen. Valid options are "dot", "fcntl",
97 "flock", and "lockf". We need a way to tell
98 the user that these are the valid options, and
99 change the flag "--with-locking" if it's not
102 Fri Dec 22 19:21:29 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
104 * Remove the lex-specific memory hints at the
105 beginning of sbr/dtimep.lex. We've already
106 committed to supporting flex only, since
107 lex does not easily allow us to parse a single
108 string, as well as other problems documented
109 below and on nmh-workers.
111 * Added a switch statement to configure.in to
112 test for Mac OS X. If this is the case, LDFLAGS
113 should not contain "-s" since the linker rejects
116 * Updated MACHINES to include Mac OS X Public Beta,
117 as well as Linux 2.4 running glibc 2.2.
119 Wed Dec 20 16:00:46 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
121 * Marked deprecated directories in docs/README.developers
122 as deprecated, with pointers to the new code location.
123 Eventually these deprecated directories should go away.
125 Tue Dec 19 19:16:37 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
127 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in inc.man. -snoop was
128 documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
130 Thu Dec 14 14:32:09 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
132 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
133 versions on ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/config, dated
134 12-07-00. This should prevent configure from failing
135 on newer operating systems because config.{guess,sub}
136 couldn't correctly identify them.
138 Thu Dec 14 1:30:44 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
140 * Fixed the circular dependency created when I moved
141 zotnet/mts to mts/generic and merged them into libmts.
142 mts/generic/client.c and mts/generic/mts.c are now in sbr/
143 (and thus in libmh), which makes libmh self-contained and
144 not depending on an external archive.
146 * All include statements now look for mts.h in h/. The
147 Makefiles and configure script have been modified so that
148 mts/generic is no longer built.
150 Mon Dec 11 22:08:07 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
152 * When Shantonu made the new libmts.a, he swapped $(MTSLIB) and
153 libmh.a in sbr/Makefile.in so that libmh.a comes first, but this
154 causes the build to fail on Solaris, because libmts.a has to get
155 ruserpass() out of libmh.a. Swapping them back to the way Ken
156 Hornstein's patch (which I applied on Jul 20) put them, with
157 libmh.a correctly coming second. If there are times when libmts.a
158 needs to come second, then it would appear there's a circular
159 dependency and someone (Shantonu?) did an mts merge incorrectly.
161 Fri Sep 8 01:36:23 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
163 * Took out bad time textual time zones like BST and JST.
164 I found them online somewhere, but am not sure if they're
167 Fri Sep 8 00:36:48 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
169 * Moved zotnet/mts to mts/generic. This code reorganization
170 makes the entire zotnet tree deprecated -- bboards is unneeded,
171 mf was was moved to sbr, tws was rewritten and moved to sbr, and
174 * Created a new static library called libmts.a used during
175 compilation which includes the generic mts code and the
176 smtp/sendmail code. This supercedes the functionality of the
177 old libsmtp.a and the remains of libzot.a.
179 * Updated header includes to reference the new location of mts.h
180 in mts/generic/mts.h. Also, update the configure and top-level
181 Makefile not to descend into zotnet. Also, they don't descend
182 into mts/mmdf and mts/sendmail (the sendmail code has been
183 merged into the smtp code).
185 * Added #include <h/nmh.h> to h/md5.h, since my compile was
186 complaining about implicitly-declared memcpy and memset, which
187 appear to be in strings.h. In any event, nmh.h should take care
190 * When doing a "make nmhdist", notice that the generated
191 snapshot does not include zotnet of the mts directories as noted
192 above. Since they are no longer compiled, and I don't see any
193 obvious code path to get to them, end-users should probably
194 not need them. If you think otherwise, turn Makefile generation
195 back on in configure.in and turn on recursion into those dirs
196 in the appropriate Makefile.in
198 Wed Sep 6 22:40:03 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
200 * Tracked down the problem in the new dtimep where time
201 zones were being radically misreported. It was because the
202 parser knew about military time zones (such as M or E) but in
203 some cases did not know about the textual representation of
204 some zones (like MET). When it encountered one of these, the
205 date parser misread MET as the military time zone T (well, first
206 zone M, then E, and finally T). I took military zones out, and
207 things seem much better. Also, the default behavior of parsing
208 time zones appears to default to GMT in the absence of better
209 info, which is less bogus than assuming the mail came from the
210 current time zone, which was the behavior in 1.04.
212 Thu Aug 10 13:22:13 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
214 * Decided that limiting the message number columns to 3 on my
215 scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD (to try to regain space taken by
216 extra date info) was ill-conceived. It's not that tough to get
217 past 999 messages, though I imagine it's rather rare to exceed
218 9999. Changed these to 4. Also put the "replied / encrypted"
219 column back in YYYYMMDD -- I've never seen it show anything but a
220 space, but that space is useful if you use scan, grep, and awk
221 (with the default field separator) to grab message numbers (I know
222 -- pick should really be used for these purposes...).
224 Mon Aug 7 20:11:09 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
226 * Modify umask set by mhshow to enable user execute bit, so that
227 viewers that create temporary directories (e.g., lynx) will be
230 Thu Aug 03 17:14:08 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
232 * TODO: Allow multiple simultaneous differing contexts, probably
233 each tied to a parent (terminal) process.
235 Tue Aug 1 10:48:05 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
237 * Makefile install rules should not look for generated files in
238 the source tree -- this will happen to work when configuring and
239 building inside the source tree but will fail when using an
240 external build tree. Fixed etc/Makefile.in.
242 Mon Jul 24 16:20:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
244 * When Shantonu wrote the new, more portable dtimep.lex, he left
245 out the #ifdef DSTXXX stuff for some reason. Not a good idea, as
246 that code is required for proper printing of numeric-offset
247 timezones that have daylight saving time. Without that code,
248 -0700 during DST gets printed as MST instead of PDT.
250 * Renamed DSTXXX as ADJUST_NUMERIC_ONLY_TZ_OFFSETS_WRT_DST and
251 added an explanatory comment by its #definition.
253 * Updated README.developers with the fact that zotnet/tws is going away.
255 Thu Jul 20 20:30:52 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
257 * Moved Kimmo's new "--with-hash-backup" to be output with the
258 rest of the --with options in the configure --help output. Also,
259 people did not preserve my alphabetization of the --with options
260 when they added new ones. Re-alphabetized.
262 * One more pass at README.developers now that it's clear that my
263 previously-suggested one-line autoconf-file commit can cause
264 unnecessary local makes and an out-of-sync stamp-h.in file, but
265 would not cause problems for other people using the CVS files.
267 * Ken Hornstein's SASL patch was not integrated properly with
268 Ruud's new merged mts/sendmail code. Kimmo has since fixed nmh so
269 it compiles, but according to Ken, the SASL stuff still does not
270 work. Integrating a patch from him for this.
272 * Last pass at README.developers -- Kimmo's 5-step commit was
273 overkill. You only need 3 steps, since configure.in is the only
274 autoconf file with the RCS $Id keyword.
276 * Applied Kurt J. Lidl <lidl@eng.us.uu.net>'s $MAILHOST patch:
278 I have a small patch that would be nice to be included --
279 basically, it allows the usage of the "MAILHOST" environment
280 variable, without having to have HESIOD turned on. I need
281 this functionality for my environment, where we have identical
282 /usr/local on all my machines (so I cannot just hardcode into
283 the mts.conf file), and I have multiple POP mail servers for
286 Modified inc.man to reflect that along with "pophost:" and -host,
287 $MAILHOST can now activate POP mail inclusion as well.
289 * Fixed warnings from diff on first-time install of nmh. Also
290 added 'echo's clarifying the etc file installation activities.
292 Tue Jul 18 19:36:59 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
294 * Added the answer to Dan's question in README.developers.
296 Mon Jul 17 19:10:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
298 * Clarified and made some corrections to Kimmo's README.developers
299 changes (BTW, if anyone can explain why the RCS Ids are able to cause
300 problems with the dependencies, please fill in the explanation --
301 I never encountered a problem with the old single-commit method).
303 Sat Jul 15 23:13:49 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
305 * Add configure option --with-hash-backup so the backup prefix can
306 be easily changed from "," to "#".
308 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that it works with any make.
310 * Use mkstemp in sbr/lock_file.c.
312 * Commits of autoconf-related files apparently can't all be done
313 in one shot due to RCS Ids changing when committing -- updated
316 Tue Jul 11 14:18:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
318 * Clarified post.man and send.man for those not completely up on
319 SASL terminology. "SASL encryption layers are not supported for
320 SMTP" means that encryption is supported for the authentication
321 but not for the subsequent data stream.
323 Sat Jul 8 01:36:19 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
325 * Applied Ken Hornstein <kenh@cmf.nrl.navy.mil>'s patches
326 implementing SASL support for POP3 and SMTP. If nmh is compiled
327 with SASL support, using the -sasl switch on the inc, msgchk,
328 post, and send commands will enable authentication encryption for
329 SMTP, and both authentication and data stream encryption for POP3.
331 Sat Jun 10 18:37:59 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
333 * Merged mts/sendmail functionality into mts/smtp; switching between
334 smtp and sendmail delivery method is now controlled by mts.conf.
336 * If tsort cannot deal with loops, in addition to defining tsort as
337 cat, also define lorder as echo.
339 * Removed uip/popi.c from list of sources.
341 Thu Jun 08 19:36:57 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
343 * New dtimep.lex didn't parse day names properly. Fixed. Also
344 clarified ambiguous comments preceding day_map[] array (from old
345 dtimep.lex) that probably led to the erroneous cp++ being added.
347 Wed Jun 7 20:52:33 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
349 * Added one more mkstemp invocation to uip/spost.c (which was in a
352 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to clean up permissions handling
353 and error handling in uip/inc.c.
355 Mon Jun 5 22:10:07 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
357 * Use cat instead of tsort if tsort cannot deal with loops in its
358 input (which is the case for tsort from GNU textutils).
360 Mon Jun 5 21:14:36 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
362 * If lockfile is present, and its dotlockfile program is setgid,
363 inc does not need to be setgid.
365 Sun Jun 4 21:35:40 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
367 * Added autoconf test for Miquel van Smoorenburg's liblockfile
368 library, as found on Debian systems.
370 * Added liblockfile support to sbr/lock_file.c.
372 Wed May 31 7:19:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
374 * Fixed up dtimep.lex a bit. Added back memory options for AIX to
375 increase available memory. Took out %option noyywrap, which
376 wasn't understood by AT&T lex, as well as the -i
377 case-insensitivity flag.
379 Wed May 31 07:40:45 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
381 * Added a lint target to the Makefiles and a check in autoconf
382 to determine whether lint or lclint exists on the system.
384 Fri May 30 19:21:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
386 * etc/Makefile.in was incorrectly installing mts.conf.in and
387 sendfiles.in -- fixed. Generated sendfiles script was not a
388 dependency of the `all' target, and was incorrectly included in
389 the distribution. Changed the suffix for the backed-up previous
390 versions of the etc files from the ambiguous .old to .prev. Added
391 call to diff -- only keep the .prev files around if different from
392 the newly-installed versions (intentionally didn't redirect output
393 to /dev/null so you'll notice when your changed versions are
394 getting moved aside).
396 * INSTALL never documented the etc/*.old thing. Documented the
397 new etc/*.prev thing (including a note to watch for diff output).
399 * Applied Alec Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu>'s dropsbr.c patch:
401 In the map_write routine, a call is made to map_open and this
402 call is supposed to set the "clear" variable to 0 or 1,
403 depending on whether the map file is empty or not. In
404 mh6.8.3, this worked because map_open would set "clear" by
405 calling the mbx_Xopen routine. In nmh, the code for mbx_Xopen
406 was merged into mbx_open, but the interface for mbx_open
407 doesn't support the clear variable, so that functionality was
408 lost. The map_open interface still contains "int *clear" in
409 the prototype, but never sets it.
411 My patch eliminates "clear" from the map_open interface (I
412 checked to make sure that map_write is the only client of
413 map_open). Furthermore, my patch also sets the "clear"
414 variable properly at the beginning of map_write by calling
415 fstat(). This eliminates the bug in that the value of "clear"
416 being used later in the routine was just stack garbage.
418 Having a bad value of clear causes this next bug to be
419 triggered: The fp file pointer was being opened with fdopen,
420 but in two of the three switch cases it wasn't being closed.
421 In certain cases, this was causing packf to run out of file
422 descriptors if you attempted to pack a large folder.
424 Mon May 29 7:48:15 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
426 * Moved the date parsing routines from zotnet/tws to sbr/ (and
427 tws.h to h/). Updated all source files to reflect to new location
430 * Rewrote dparsetime (in dtimep.lex -> dtimep.c) to replace the
431 old zotnet/tws/dtimep.c, dtimep.lex, lexstring.c, lexedit.c, and
432 dtimep.c-lexed. It should now work with flex (although untested
433 with lex), and requires no sed-ing. For now, I have the lexed
434 version in the distribution, so that end-users don't need to worry
435 about running it through flex/lex. I have not added back support
436 for guessing the time zone when it's not specified.
438 Sun May 28 17:44:15 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
440 * Added autoconf check for getutent().
442 * Changed uip/rcvtty.c and uip/slocal.c to use getutent() and
443 friends. Since I can only check on Linux, please check if
444 this works on other systems.
446 Sun May 28 14:58:49 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
448 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to uip/scansbr.c for more
449 checks for write failures.
451 * Unlink temporary file properly in uip/rcvtty.c.
453 * Moved viamail from bindir to libdir.
455 * Changed sendfiles into sendfiles.in, so that path to viamail
458 * Added gzip support to sendfiles.
460 * Added References header to replcomps and replgroupcomps.
462 Sun May 28 14:39:31 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
464 * Fixed m_getfld bug which caused segmentation faults when
465 incorporating messages which ended in multiple linefeeds crossing
468 Fri May 26 13:21:59 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
470 * msh has been unable to show MIME messages ever since 1.0. Alec
471 Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu> tracked down the problem to the
472 -show flag being passed to mhshow. mhshow is equivalent to the
473 old mhn -show, so we don't need the -show anymore. Removed it.
475 Fri May 12 02:51:21 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
477 * zotnet/bboards is not longer built by default. Goal is to move
478 the assorted functions in zotnet into sbr or some more logical
481 * Moved zotnet/mf to sbr, and changed mf.h references accordingly,
482 as well as Makefiles.
484 Thu May 11 02:21:34 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
486 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that both SRCS and OBJS aren't
487 seperately and redundantly defined, but so that OBJS is a
488 pattern-substituted version of SRCS with suffix .c -> .o. This
489 should make maintainability easier.
491 * Added section to MACHINES indicating what platforms nmh is known
492 to compile and work on, just to give users peace of mind, or
493 something. This is by no means complete or exhaustive, so add
494 whatever you know works.
496 Tue May 09 20:38:04 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
498 * Alphabetized Shantonu's $pop_kinds output on configure's "pop is
499 enabled" line. If POP3 is the only kind of POP enabled, say so,
500 rather than just saying "yes" (which is ambiguous).
502 * Fixed four warnings in Shantonu's new getpass.c. Needed to
503 #include <stdlib.h> for calloc(), <unistd.h> for ttyname(), and
504 "h/mh.h" for adios(). Also changed ch from char to int to get rid
505 of "comparison is always 1 due to limited range of data type" on EOF.
507 * Added steps to README.developers saying to change the version
508 number to X.Y.Z+dev. Did a little rearranging and changed the FTP
509 dir from /home/ftp to /var/ftp to reflect Doug's new machine.
511 * Changed configure.in to use gcc -Wall even without
512 --enable-debug, to prevent developers compiling optimized from
513 introducing warnings, and to give end-users a warm, fuzzy feeling
514 as they (hopefully) see no warnings come out (except perhaps on
515 the lex output file) even with -Wall.
517 * Renamed getpass() to nmh_getpass() since the prototype for
518 getpass() varies from OS to OS, and we want to _always_ use our
519 version of the function. Fixed all the callers to use
520 nmh_getpass() and added it to prototypes.h. Semi-arbitrarily
521 upped MAX_PASSWORD_LEN from 128 to 256. buf was being calloc()'d
522 and the memory leaked -- should have just been declared as static
523 char array. Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the
524 copyright message, as this version has been changed significantly
525 from the BSD version.
527 * Added "nmh-local functions to use in preference to OS versions"
528 section to README.developers (currently just says to use
529 nmh_getpass() instead of system getpass()).
531 * Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the copyright message
534 * Added mts.conf.5 page per Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s
537 This happens on solaris:
540 windex entry incorrect: mts.conf(5) not found.
541 No manual entry for mts.conf.
545 % echo ".so man5/mh-tailor.5" > mts.conf.5
547 done in the man5 directory. We need to add 'mts.conf.5' as a
548 reference sourcing mh-tailor.5.
550 Mon May 08 23:51:55 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
552 * Doug informed me that the way I had restored the "lost" version
553 histories was wrong, because `cvs checkout's of old versions of
554 nmh wouldn't work properly. It occurs to me that this could be
555 fixed by simply deleting those tags in the new-location *,v files,
556 but oh well. I'm putting everything back to the way Doug
557 originally had it. To get the old version history for a file that
558 used to be in the top directory, you'll need to "blindly" do a
559 `cvs log' there (even though you won't have a local copy of the
560 file in that directory). `cvs diff' will no longer be able to
561 diff pre-move versions vs. post-move versions -- you'll have to do
562 a lot of manual gyrations with `cvs checkout' and then use `diff'.
564 * I had alphabetized the --configure options in the --help output
565 awhile back, but Shantonu added --enable-apop just under
566 --enable-pop. Put it in alphabetical order and clarified what
567 --enable-apop does vs. --enable-pop and --with-krb4. Also changed
568 --with-mts help line from "mail transport agent" to "mail
569 transport agent/service" so the 's' in "mts" doesn't seem to come
572 * Added two steps to "releasing nmh" in README.developers. After
573 making the tarball, it's a good idea to diff the tree vs. the CVS
574 tree to make sure no files got left out, and then to chown the
575 files so that they're owned by root, preventing a Trojaning attack
576 by a malicious remote user with a UID matching yours.
578 * Changed DIFFERENCES to say that RPOP is not currently supported
579 rather than implying it by saying that APOP, KPOP, and POP[3] are.
581 Sun May 07 18:16:43 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
583 * Imported NetBSD version of getpass() and made extensive
584 revisions for compatibility with programs that pipe the password
585 to stdin, such as exmh.
587 * Removed tests for system ruserpass() which sometimes gave
588 phantom positive results. Also, bext to use internal functions if
589 we ever want to change .netrc format to something else, or access
592 Sat May 06 08:28:09 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
594 * Restored lost version histories for those moved files by doing a
595 manual `mv' in the CVSROOT on mhost. CVS badly needs a `cvs mv'
596 command so that you can move files (without having physical access
597 to the CVSROOT) without losing versioning. Put MACHINES back at
598 the top level as it needs to be read before building. Fixed DIST
599 variable in {.,docs}/Makefile.in to reflect that and to add
600 missing entry for "INSTALL" file.
602 Sat May 06 13:13:07 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
604 * Re-cleaned up nmh documentation (by moving things to docs
605 subdir) and modified Makefile & configure.in to handle the change.
607 Mon Apr 17 21:28:40 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
609 * Scott Blachowicz pointed out that the configure --help output
610 for --enable-masquerade was misleading. Clarified.
612 Mon Apr 17 19:01:00 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
614 * APOP support can be compiled in to inc and msgchk using
617 * To access an APOP host, specify -apop on the command line
618 along with any -host or -user option.
620 Fri Apr 14 23:10:44 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
622 * Upped the version number to 1.0.4+dev until the next nmh release.
624 * Added a "releasing nmh" section to README.developers, while the
625 process was fresh in my mind.
627 Fri Apr 14 18:21:34 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
629 * Added new files README.developers, ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6, and
630 ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html to DIST target in Makefile.in.
632 * Released nmh-1.0.4.
634 Tue Apr 11 21:37:03 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
636 * Applied Brian Campbell <bacam@tardis.ed.ac.uk>'s mhn.defaults.sh
639 It appears that there shouldn't be quotes around the %s in the
640 iso-8859-1 charset entry; xterm passes the remaining arguments
641 to the program, quoting them means that xterm thinks they're
642 part of the program's name.
644 This %s isn't the same as the "Insert content subtype" one from
645 mhshow-show-* -- it doesn't come from MIME headers and is safe not
648 Sun Apr 09 13:03:59 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
650 * added check in fmt_compile() to handle a single-character
651 format string. fmt_compile() depends on having an array of
652 format characters with an empty item at the end. A
653 single-character format would cause programs using this
654 function to segfault because the algorithm used to decide on
655 the length of the array mistakenly created a single-item array
656 when the format string was one character. This eventually
657 caused problems when the program attempted to test item+1
660 Thu Apr 06 21:53:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
662 * Richard Coleman threw out a lot of old MH-specific files in nmh.
663 Much of the stuff, indeed, is not worth saving, but there are
664 nuggets that are very worthwhile, and should probably be added
665 back in. Most important, IMHO, are the MH change logs, as they
666 can help answer questions like "Why is this code like this?" or
667 "How long has this been broken?" or "What was this ever used for?"
669 I've added a new file to the nmh tree called
670 ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6. It's cobbled together from the
671 mh-6.8.4/papers/mh*/MHCHANGES files. I've re-ordered the entries
672 to go from newest at the top to oldest at the bottom to match the
673 ChangeLog convention. Unfortunately there are no change logs for
674 versions of MH prior to 3 in the MH tar files available at
675 <ftp://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/mh>. Also, it appears to me that there
676 are MH-6.6 changes that aren't documented in the logs.
678 I've also added ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html. This is
679 based on mh-6.8.4/papers/changes/mh-changes.ms. The nroff format
680 and its "catman"-type output are a pain to deal with, but I was
681 loath to throw away the formatting, so I converted the file to
682 HTML. The only actual markup in the body are the "<B>" and "<U>"
683 tags, and "<" and ">" instead of '<' and '>', so it's quite
684 doable to view the file in plain ASCII mode as well. Note that
685 some of the changes this file documents as having been made in
686 MH-6.8.4 may not be present in nmh -- Richard started with 6.8.3
687 and later put in certain 6.8.4 stuff.
689 Wed Apr 05 21:09:28 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
691 * Applied Eric Schnoebelen <eric@cirr.com>'s mhshowsbr.c patch
692 fixing apparent bugs in Dan Winship's new security quoting code:
694 Since upgrading, I've been getting the following errors
695 while attempting to process some MIME messages:
697 (1) Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
702 (2) line 1/10 (END)Segmentation fault (core dumped)
704 (2) appears to be due to the testing of an unset pointer in
705 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux(). (1) appears to be caused by
706 mis-quoting a filename being handed to the shell in
707 mhshowsbr.c:show_content_aux().
709 Resolving the pointer reference issue in
710 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux() turned up a similar mis-quoting
711 problem in the routine.
713 Tue Mar 28 16:17:39 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
715 * Applied Todd.Miller@courtesan.com's patch to dropsbr.c to
716 prevent core dumping on packf. Here's the note from his message:
718 Since sizeof(buffer) == sizeof(tmpbuffer) packf will dump
719 core on a file w/o a From line with a line >= BUFSIZ.
720 I noticed this because I had a junk file in my mail
723 Fri Mar 17 11:59:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
725 * wesley.craig@umich.edu did not document his previous KPOP patch,
726 so I did so, and asked him to check what I wrote. Unfortunately
727 he didn't notice my misunderstanding of his patch. I wrote that
728 if you #define POPSERVICE "kpop", inc and msgchk will use KPOP
729 exclusively, but if you leave it as "pop3", you can use Wesley's
730 new -kpop switch on a given invocation. Instead, however, -kpop
731 turned out to be necessary on every invocation, and a KPOP user
732 complained. Applied Wesley's new patch, which makes things work
733 like I thought his original patch did. After that, did one more
734 clarifying pass to the documentation in inc.man and msgchk.man.
736 Wed Mar 15 18:45:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
738 * When I fixed the long-standing makedir() bugs in January, I had
739 the code call strtoul(..., 0), which I believed to be safe as all
740 modes specified as ASCII constants in the nmh code started with a
741 leading zero (signifying octal), which I did as it would work if
742 internal constants were ever changed to hex. Unfortunately I was
743 unaware of the "Folder-Protect:" .mh_profile entry, which
744 mh-profile.man documents as an octal-only constant, with no
745 leading zero required. I've changed the strtoul() call to an
746 atooi() call and removed the misleading leading zeroes on the
747 ASCII octal constants in the code and man pages. Also changed the
748 "Folder-Protect:" example in the man page to something more
749 interesting than a duplication of the default.
751 * When I added my --enable-masquerade option, you'll note that I
752 didn't make it --enable-nmh-masquerade. I find the --enable-nmh-*
753 options too wordy and I'm not sure why Richard went that route.
754 I've renamed them to just --enable-*, but the old versions will
755 still work as well (they just aren't advertised).
757 * Added a line to the "nmh configuration" output saying whether
760 * Added a new README.developers file. From the file:
762 This file is intended to provide a few tips for anyone doing
763 development on nmh. Developers who learn things "the hard
764 way" about the nmh codebase (as opposed to local info best
765 encoded in a comment) are encouraged to share their wisdom
768 Currently the topics are "autoconf files" and "directory structure".
770 Tue Mar 14 12:41:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
772 * Applied, after some finessing,
773 Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s --with-smtpservers patch:
775 Here's a patch that allows you to add
777 --with-smtpservers=<some.host.name>
779 to the ./configure command line to set the "servers: " line in
780 etc/mts.conf. Around here, we use "mailhost" so that all
781 machines in the current domain just talk to a central machine
782 and nothing else runs an MTA. Now, I can use
784 --with-smtpservers=mailhost
786 instead of having to remember to fix this by hand (and often
787 forgetting to do so!).
789 * Inspired by Simon's patch, added an --enable-masquerade option
790 to configure. It will set the "masquerade:" line of mts.conf.
791 You may specify a subset of the three types of masquerading, like
792 --enable-masquerade="draft_from mmailid", or leave off explicit
793 arguments to enable all three types.
795 * Alphabetized the --enable and --with options in configure.in and
796 INSTALL and added documentation of the two new options to the latter.
798 * Added new dependency for mts.conf: Makefile. If this isn't
799 done, then when you reconfigure nmh with new values for
800 --enable-masquerade or --with-smtpservers, you'll fail to get an
801 updated copy of mts.conf.
803 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtimep.lex patch:
805 It seems that some MUA's didn't handle y2k very well - ELM
806 seems to be one of them, and Ultrix's DXmail (based on MH!).
807 I've got a few emails this month that look like:
809 575 Jan 00 Xxxxxx Xxxx 3603 ...
811 22+ Jan 00 Xxx Xxxxx 1771 ...
813 The first has "15 Jan 100" as the date and the second has
814 "19 Jan 00" as the date. The following works around this so
815 that scan, show, sortm, etc work ok.
817 I put Simon's patch under the control of a new #define called
818 FIX_NON_Y2K_COMPLIANT_MUA_DATES. There's some commentary in
819 acconfig.h about when you might not want to #define it.
821 * Created new dtimep.c-lexed with Simon's change using dtimep.lex
822 lexed on Solaris 2.6. Added missing dependency in
823 zotnet/tws/Makefile.in for dtimep.c: dtimep.c-lexed.
825 * Added scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD format files.
827 Mon Mar 13 21:32:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
829 * Applied Sullivan N. Beck <sbeck@cise.ufl.edu>'s mhshow-suffix patch:
831 With the patch below, you can add lines like:
833 mhshow-suffix-application/msword: .doc
834 mhshow-suffix-application/PostScript: .ps
836 to the mhn.defaults file to append the given suffix to a
837 scratch file. This allows applications which require a
838 certain suffix to run properly.
840 * Removed -force_html from lynx entry in mhn.defaults.sh (I
841 believe older versions of lynx lack that option) and added
842 "mhshow-suffix-text/html: .html".
844 * Modified username_extension masquerading to only use the
845 extended address on generated [Resent-]From: lines and SMTP
846 envelope From:. With Neil's original implementation, nmh's global
847 idea of the username was changed, which would result in inc lying
848 and saying you had no new mail because it was looking for a
849 mailbox called, for instance, "dan-nmh" (where username was "dan"
850 and $USERNAME_EXTENSION was "-nmh").
852 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtime.c patch:
854 There's a wrap-around problem that affects the implementation
855 of Zeller's congruence in dtime.c. This causes the day-of-week
856 calculations to fail for dates after Feb 29, 2000 (probably up
857 until some year far in the future).
859 Mon Mar 06 12:20:20 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
861 * Applied Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s msh.c patch:
863 I finally tracked down the problem in msh that was causing
864 errors whenever I tried to examine a 'mmdf' style mailbox.
866 It turns out that not enough memory was being allocated with
867 calloc(), causing memory pointers to be overwritten and
870 Fri Mar 03 16:07:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
872 * Changed the new "plussed_user" option to mts.conf's
873 "masquerade:" to "username_extension" after getting feedback from
874 qmail users, who use '-' as a separator rather than '+'. Removed
875 checking of $USERPLUS variable. Now check $USERNAME_EXTENSION,
876 which needs to include the appropriate separator for your MTA
877 ('-', '+', or whatever) as its first character.
879 Thu Mar 02 23:04:30 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
881 * Added a new "boolean" type to mh.h and TRUE and FALSE constants.
883 * Added a note to DIFFERENCES stating that it's out-of-date
884 (Richard was the last one to update it) and that we should
885 consider only documenting incompatibilities with MH there.
887 * Implemented (and documented) a third kind of username
888 masquerading: "plussed user" masquerading. This one was suggested
889 by Neil Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>. It's based on sendmail's
890 "plussed user" feature, where mail sent to <user>+<string> will be
891 delivered to <user>. When it's enabled, it's controlled by the
892 $USERPLUS environment variable. How is it enabled? Well, that
895 * Renamed the "mmailid:" setting in mts.conf to "masquerade:", and
896 changed it so that rather than being a boolean, it can be set to
897 any combination of the three values "draft_from", "mmailid", and
898 "plussed_user". Thus it is now possible to enable the three types
899 of masquerading individually.
901 * Fixed a bug with "mmailid" masquerading (dating back to MH?)
902 where if it was turned on, ','s would no longer be considered
903 GECOS field delimiters.
905 Wed Mar 01 23:30:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
907 * Changed the GECOS-field '&' translation behavior to be
908 controlled by the BSD42 #define rather than GCOS_HACK, since it's
909 apparently always appropriate on OSes where BSD42 is #defined, and
910 never appropriate on any other OSes. Thanks to Kimmo Suominen for
911 responding to my "What is this code here for?" comment in mts.c
912 and explaining the feature.
914 Mon Feb 28 21:50:29 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
916 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3+dev (ideally this should be
917 done by whoever makes a release tar file, immediately after doing
920 * Applied Paul Fox <pgf-spam@foxharp.boston.ma.us>'s scansbr.c
921 patch, posted to comp.mail.mh, which he says prevents loss of mail
922 when inc'ing into a full filesystem.
924 * Changed "echo > stamp-h.in" in Makefile.in to "date > stamp-h.in"
925 so that stamp-h.in will be different each time configure.in and
926 related files are changed, making it easier to check it in (which
927 is necessary to prevent unnecessary autoconf calls).
929 * My declaration of initgroups() in slocal.c to eliminate the "no
930 prototype" warning wasn't portable (FreeBSD 3.[23] choked). Now
931 use AC_EGREP_HEADER to see where initgroups() is declared, if
934 Sun Feb 20 12:17:15 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
936 * Fix security hole in mhshowsbr.c which allowed untrusted shell
939 * Released nmh 1.0.3.
941 Thu Feb 10 10:54:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
943 * Oops. %-escapes on mhstore lines in mhn.defaults.sh should not
944 be surrounded by single quotes, as a shell is not spawned when
945 just saving files, and the filenames will end up with literal
946 quotes embedded in them.
948 Fri Feb 04 12:29:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
950 * Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
951 got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
952 the -help output. One theory is that they were making reference
953 to the fact that clearly you know about the -help option since
954 you're currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea
955 to overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
956 supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
959 The other theory is that because you can say something like
960 "mhstore -" and get "mhstore: - ambiguous. It matches" followed
961 by the same list of switches you get with -help, they were saying
962 you can "sorta" abbreviate "-help" as "-". You don't get the
963 "Usage:" string, though, so it's not really the same thing.
965 Thu Feb 03 17:52:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
967 * Applied wesley.craig@umich.edu's KPOP patches. According to him:
969 The following patch fixes a problem with requesting a
970 service key for a machine that has multiple 'A' records. It
971 also makes "-kpop" a command line option, for users who
972 would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".
974 Did no testing of the new features, as I don't have access to a
977 * Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
979 * Modified INSTALL and config.h.in to reflect the new -kpop feature.
981 Fri Jan 28 17:39:24 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
983 * All %-escapes in mhn.defaults that actually expand to something
984 should be surrounded by single quotes. Added quotes to the ones
985 in mhn.defaults.sh that were missing them.
987 * Added check for lynx to write mhshow-show-text/html line in
990 Thu Jan 27 12:22:25 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
992 * makedir() had multiple bugs dating back to MH. An octal
993 constant was apparently being interpreted as decimal, resulting in
994 directories with no user read or execute permissions, making
995 nested directory creation fail. And there wasn't even an
996 _attempt_ to set desired permissions (e.g. from "Folder-Protect:"
997 in .mh_profile) on the outer directories of a nested directory.
999 * A second `make install' would always fail because the check for
1000 whether mh_profile.5 existed was written incorrectly.
1002 Wed Jan 26 02:22:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1004 * Added documentation on both types of masquerading to post's man
1007 Tue Jan 25 22:58:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1009 * Doug's portability fix of my setgid inc autodetection had a
1010 caching bug -- if you re-ran configure, uip/Makefile would be
1011 corrupted, and installation would bomb out on OSes where inc needs
1014 * Implemented a new kind of email address masquerading. Usually,
1015 when a user writes a custom "From:" header in a draft, nmh uses it
1016 rather than generating one. However, the user's true address is
1017 used in the SMTP envelope "From:" and is revealed in the "Sender:"
1018 header. Now, when mmailid is set to non-zero, the envelope
1019 "From:" uses the address specified in the draft "From:" header,
1020 and there is no "Sender:" header. This is useful when sending on
1021 behalf of a remote POP3 account or when remote mail robots
1022 incorrectly use the envelope "From:" in preference to the body
1023 "From:". This processing has only been implemented for post, not
1024 for the undocumented spost (which was already missing some "From:"
1025 processing that post has).
1027 Mon Jan 24 22:26:06 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1029 * Got rid of the rest of the gcc -Wall warnings that I didn't have
1030 time for on 1999-07-15 (and, it would seem, some new ones people
1031 introduced since then). The primary ones were the warnings that
1032 default prototypes were being used for [v]snprintf() and
1033 str[n]casecmp(). As of right now, there are _no_ compilation
1034 warnings except on dtimep.c-lexed (at least under AIX 4.1.5 and
1037 Sun Jan 2 23:42:18 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1039 * Move mhtest from bindir to libdir.
1041 * Move sendfiles from libdir to bindir.
1043 * Updated sendfiles manpage to reflect this change.
1045 * Added documentation for -build and -file switches to repl and
1046 forw manpages (patch from Peter Maydell).
1048 * Fixed interaction between specifying -cc in profile and -group on
1051 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1053 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
1054 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
1055 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
1058 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1060 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
1061 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
1062 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
1063 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
1064 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
1065 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).
1067 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1069 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
1071 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1073 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
1074 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
1075 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
1076 caught again. This works for now.
1078 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
1080 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1082 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
1083 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
1085 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1087 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
1088 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
1090 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
1092 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
1094 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1096 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
1097 changes. Both need more cleanup.
1099 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1101 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
1102 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
1103 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
1104 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
1105 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
1108 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1110 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
1111 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
1112 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
1114 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
1115 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
1118 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1120 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
1121 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
1122 to a directory on another device with more free space.
1124 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1126 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
1127 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
1129 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1131 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
1134 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
1135 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
1137 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
1138 macros, regardless of platform.
1140 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
1141 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1143 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
1144 with x-conversions=gzip.
1146 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1148 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
1151 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
1152 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
1153 implicit definition of ioctl().
1155 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
1156 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
1157 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
1158 want to mess with them.
1160 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1162 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
1163 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
1165 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
1166 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
1168 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
1169 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
1170 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
1172 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
1173 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
1174 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
1176 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
1177 function initgroups.
1179 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
1182 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
1183 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
1186 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
1187 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
1190 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
1191 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
1195 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1197 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
1198 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
1199 preventing compilation on at least linux.
1201 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
1202 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
1204 Thu Sep 09 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1206 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
1208 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
1209 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
1210 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
1211 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
1213 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
1214 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
1216 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1218 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
1220 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1222 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
1223 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
1225 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1227 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
1228 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
1230 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
1231 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
1232 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
1233 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
1235 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
1236 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
1238 Sat Jun 09 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1240 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
1241 substitute it for mktemp if available.
1243 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1245 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
1246 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
1249 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
1251 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
1253 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
1255 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
1256 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
1258 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
1259 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
1260 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
1262 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
1263 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
1264 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
1266 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
1267 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
1268 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1270 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
1271 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
1274 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
1275 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1277 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
1278 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1280 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
1281 <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1283 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
1284 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
1285 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1287 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
1288 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1290 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
1291 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
1292 <elleron@servtech.com>.
1294 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
1295 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
1298 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
1299 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
1301 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
1302 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
1303 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
1304 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
1306 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
1307 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
1309 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1313 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
1314 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
1315 would not be changed.
1317 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
1318 one from the Apache web server.
1320 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
1321 (this should have been done a long time ago).
1323 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
1324 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
1325 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
1327 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
1329 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
1331 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
1332 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
1335 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
1336 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
1337 removes a bad race condition.
1339 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
1342 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
1343 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
1344 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
1346 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
1347 sequence information.
1349 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
1350 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
1352 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
1355 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
1358 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
1360 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
1361 interpret 034 as octal.
1363 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
1365 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
1366 mhstore, and mhbuild.
1368 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
1369 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
1371 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
1372 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
1374 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
1375 in the c_cefile structure when building.
1377 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
1378 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
1380 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
1381 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
1382 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
1384 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
1385 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
1386 and mhshow. Updated man pages
1388 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
1390 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
1392 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
1393 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
1396 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
1398 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
1399 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
1401 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
1402 header field information.
1404 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
1405 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
1407 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
1408 values when parsing a content.
1410 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
1411 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
1413 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
1414 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
1416 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
1417 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1419 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
1420 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
1422 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
1424 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
1426 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
1428 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
1430 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
1431 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
1434 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
1435 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
1437 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
1438 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
1439 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
1440 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
1441 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
1442 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
1445 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1447 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
1448 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
1449 buffer length checks for this parameter.
1451 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
1452 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
1454 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1456 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
1457 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
1458 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
1459 of the limits on the length of command lines.
1461 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
1462 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
1465 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
1466 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
1467 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
1468 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
1471 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1473 * Released nmh-0.27.
1475 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
1476 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
1478 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
1479 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
1480 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
1481 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
1484 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
1485 mhbuild returns an error.
1487 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
1488 rename the draft file.
1490 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
1491 use a global variable.
1493 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
1494 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
1496 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
1497 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
1499 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
1500 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
1501 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
1503 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
1504 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
1506 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
1507 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
1510 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
1511 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
1514 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
1515 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
1517 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
1518 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
1519 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
1521 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
1522 to new function output_content_folder.
1524 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
1525 new function output_content_file.
1527 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
1528 to new function parse_format_string.
1530 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
1531 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
1532 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
1533 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
1535 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
1536 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
1537 message/external file from ftp.
1539 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
1540 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
1541 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
1543 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
1544 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
1547 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
1550 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
1551 new file mhstoresbr.c
1553 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
1556 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
1557 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
1559 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
1560 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
1562 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
1563 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
1564 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
1566 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
1568 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
1570 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
1571 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
1574 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
1575 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
1577 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
1580 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
1582 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1584 * Released nmh-0.26.
1586 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
1587 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
1588 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
1589 is still the same (dashstuffing).
1591 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
1592 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
1593 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
1594 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
1595 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
1597 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
1598 But it is not on by default.
1600 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
1601 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
1603 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
1605 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
1607 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
1609 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
1611 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
1612 number of the "cur" message when packing.
1614 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1616 * Released nmh-0.25.
1618 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
1619 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
1620 uses the original name of the library.
1622 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
1623 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
1626 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
1627 list_content and list_debug.
1629 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
1631 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
1632 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.
1634 1998-02-27 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1636 * Released nmh-0.24.
1638 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
1640 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
1641 are given, that order doesn't matter.
1643 * Fix bug in seq_list.c when realloc'ing for
1644 large sequence line.
1646 1998-02-23 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1648 * Released nmh-0.23.
1650 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
1652 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
1653 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan
1654 content, decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary
1655 string). I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
1657 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
1658 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
1661 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
1663 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
1665 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.

1668 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
1670 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
1671 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.
1673 * Add note to MACHINES file that on Linux, configure
1674 doesn't find the functions sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
1676 * Fix configuration for machines that don't have (or find)

1698 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
1699 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
1701 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
1703 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
1704 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
1705 entry point for parsing MIME files.
1707 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
1708 source message on the standard input.
1710 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
1712 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,

1716 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
1719 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
1720 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).

1725 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1727 * Released nmh-0.21.
1729 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on

1744 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
1746 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
1747 header fields as per RFC-2047.
1749 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
1750 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
1751 spaces between encoded word are.
1753 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
1755 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
1756 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
1758 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
1759 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
1760 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
1762 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
1764 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
1765 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
1767 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.

1774 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
1777 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
1778 permissions, not write permissions.
1780 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
1781 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
1783 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
1786 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1788 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
1790 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
1791 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
1793 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
1794 message contains valid character set.
1796 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
1797 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
1799 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
1800 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
1802 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
1803 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
1804 between an encoded word and normal text.
1806 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
1807 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
1809 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
1810 as a RFC-2047 header field.

1815 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
1816 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
1819 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
1820 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
1822 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
1823 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
1825 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
1827 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1829 * Released nmh-0.20.
1831 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
1833 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.

1836 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
1837 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
1839 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
1840 and the To: line was missing.
1842 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
1844 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1846 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
1848 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
1849 watch the POP transaction.
1851 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
1852 first, and use it if available.
1854 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
1855 first, and use it if available.
1857 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1859 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
1861 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
1862 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
1863 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
1866 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
1867 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
1868 returns the state FLDPLUS.
1870 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
1871 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
1874 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
1876 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
1877 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
1879 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
1881 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
1882 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
1884 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
1885 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
1886 message to which you are replying.
1888 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
1889 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
1890 making group replies.
1892 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
1894 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1896 * Released nmh-0.19.
1898 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
1899 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
1901 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
1902 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
1903 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
1904 to the end of the man page.
1906 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
1907 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
1908 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
1909 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
1910 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
1911 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
1913 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
1916 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
1917 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
1918 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
1920 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
1921 the next available number above the message number you wish
1924 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
1925 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
1927 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
1928 file sbr/seq_print.c
1930 * flist will now update the current folder.
1932 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
1933 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
1934 but now undocumented.
1936 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
1939 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
1940 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
1942 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
1944 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
1945 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
1947 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1949 * Released nmh-0.18.
1951 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
1952 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
1953 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
1955 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
1956 retains the public/private status of sequences.
1958 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
1959 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
1960 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
1961 previous public/private status.
1963 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
1966 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
1969 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
1970 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
1971 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
1973 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
1974 take option to determine whether it should get current
1975 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
1976 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
1978 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
1980 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
1981 wait for stopped processes.
1983 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
1984 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
1986 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1988 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
1990 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
1991 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
1993 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
1994 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
1996 * Change the way that memory for message status is
1997 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
1998 the folder/message structure. This required changing
1999 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
2001 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
2004 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
2007 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
2009 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
2010 the debugging output.
2012 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
2013 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
2015 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2017 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
2019 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
2020 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
2022 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
2024 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
2025 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
2026 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
2027 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
2028 in the given sequence.
2030 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
2031 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
2032 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
2033 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
2034 subdirectories of a given directory.
2036 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
2037 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
2038 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
2040 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
2041 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
2043 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
2045 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
2048 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
2049 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
2050 fields are now calculated at runtime.
2052 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
2053 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
2054 are calculated at runtime.
2056 Sun Nov 30 19:14:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2058 * Released nmh-0.18-pre2.
2060 * Add paragraph to man page for install-mh and to INSTALL file
2061 about checking for global mh.profile.
2063 * Renamed m_find() to context_find().
2064 Renamed m_replace() to context_replace().
2065 Renamed m_delete() to context_del().
2066 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
2067 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
2068 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
2070 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
2071 adding message to folder itself.
2073 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
2074 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
2075 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
2078 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
2079 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
2082 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
2083 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
2084 is the same as the direct smtp code).
2086 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
2087 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
2089 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
2090 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
2091 code to use it yet).
2093 Thu Nov 13 18:42:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2095 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.
2097 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never
2098 called with a value larger than 30 mintues.
2100 * Fixed race condition in rmm and refile, so that
2101 context is updated before external rmmproc is called.
2103 * Removed all the OVERHEAD code.
2105 * Move code to add message to folder from refile.c
2108 Fri Jul 25 19:39:29 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2110 * Did some rearranging of the internals of inc.c.
2112 * Make -inplace the default for anno, forw, dist, and repl.
2114 * Changed --enable-smtp to --with-mts={smtp,sendmail}
2116 * Created new directory mts/sendmail for direct sendmail
2117 interface (although it currently still uses SMTP).
2119 * Removed all the TMA (trusted mail agent) code
2121 * Removed all the TTYD (terminal access daemon) code
2123 * Removed all the MF (uucp filtering) code.
2125 * Removed all the code for BERK.
2127 * Removed all the code for stand-alone delivery (MHMTS).
2129 * Split the file mts/sendmail/smail.c into sendmail.c and
2130 smtp.c. Changed the name of the directory to mts/smtp.
2132 * Changed autoconf to use @sysconfdir@ for location of
2133 configuration files.
2135 * Changed #define in mhn.c from FTP to BUILTIN_FTP.
2137 Mon Jul 21 03:22:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2139 * Released nmh-0.17.
2141 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
2143 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
2144 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
2146 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
2149 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
2150 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
2152 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
2153 number of refiled message.
2155 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
2157 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
2158 for return value of wait().
2160 * Change configure to also check /bin for "more".
2162 Sat Jul 12 00:02:23 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2164 * Released nmh-0.16.
2166 Mon Jun 23 20:13:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2168 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
2170 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
2171 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
2172 deal with binary messages, yet).
2174 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
2176 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
2178 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
2179 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
2180 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
2181 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
2182 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
2183 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
2185 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
2186 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
2188 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
2189 From MH-6.8.4 patch.
2191 * Fix double free of ctinfo in user_content when using
2192 #forw with single message. From John MacMillan (and
2195 * Changed -mhnproc switch for show, to -showmimeproc.
2197 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".
2199 * Added "mime" option to "whatnow", which calls the program
2200 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
2203 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
2206 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
2208 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
2209 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
2210 which used unsigned chars by default.
2212 Sat Jun 21 01:21:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2214 * Released nmh-0.15.
2216 * Added new form "scan.unseen" to distribution. It marks messages

2221 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
2223 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
2226 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
2227 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
2228 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
2230 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
2231 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
2233 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
2235 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
2236 they conflict with defines on AIX.
2238 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
2239 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
2240 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
2241 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
2243 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
2244 and put in own subroutine.
2246 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
2247 and put in own subroutine.
2249 * Moved code to remove messages from folder into own
2250 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and
2251 refile.c to use new routine.
2253 Fri May 16 06:09:31 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2255 * Renamed m_seqok to seq_nameok.
2257 * Changed m_setunseen, msh, mshcmds, flist, and scan to use
2260 * Changed m_seqflag to return the number of a sequence rather
2261 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
2262 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
2264 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
2267 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before
2268 adding message to sequence.
2270 * Renamed function m_setvis to m_setunseen, and renamed
2271 corresponding file in sbr.
2273 * Renamed function m_setseq to m_setprev, and renamed corresponding
2276 * Changed mark.c and pick.c to use m_seqaddsel and m_seqdelsel.
2278 * Added new function m_seqdelsel to m_seqdel.c, which deletes
2279 all selected messages from a sequence.
2281 * Added new function m_seqaddsel to m_seqadd.c, which adds all
2282 selected messages to a sequence.
2284 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,
2287 Thu May 15 00:53:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2289 * Renamed function pack_folder to m_packfolder, and moved it
2290 from uip/folder.c into its own file sbr/m_packfolder.c
2292 Wed May 14 23:38:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2294 * Changed function m_gmsg to m_readfolder. Renamed file

2335 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
2336 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
2339 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
2340 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
2342 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2344 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if
2345 necessary. So `folders' can now handle more than 300 folders.
2347 Tue Apr 22 14:01:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2349 * Change configure to use a compile check to see if the tm struct

2378 will suppress the display of the message header.
2380 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
2382 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c

2399 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
2401 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
2402 folder/message structure when done with folder.
2404 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is
2405 defined even if message is missing "From " line.

2464 * rcvtty.c : Changed to use #define UTMP_FILE (if exists) rather
2465 than hard coded "/etc/utmp".
2467 * Released nmh-0.08.
2469 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
2470 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of
2471 locking database itself.

2475 * Added slocal action `mmdf' to deliver to a file in mmdf format.
2477 * Changed the slocal actions `file' and `>' to always deliver in
2478 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
2481 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
2482 rather than mmdf format.
2484 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
2485 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
2486 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
2487 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
2489 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
2491 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2493 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
2496 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2497 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2498 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
2500 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2501 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2502 rcvpack so you can choose the preferred format.
2504 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2506 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
2507 can still easily change this in config.h).
2509 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
2510 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
2511 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
2513 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2515 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather

2530 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
2532 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
2533 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
2536 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
2537 built-in FTP client in mhn.

2550 * Released nmh-0.06.
2552 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
2553 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
2555 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
2556 many such machines around anymore.
2558 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
2559 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
2561 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
2562 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
2564 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2566 * Check lex generated file in zotnet/tws and use
2567 pre-generated version if necessary.
2569 * Released nmh-0.05.
2571 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
2572 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
2573 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
2574 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
2576 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
2577 be linked in one pass.
2579 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2581 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
2582 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
2584 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2586 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
2588 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2590 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
2591 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
2592 become the current folder.
2594 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2596 * Released nmh-0.04.
2598 * Define ospeed and PC in termsbr.c is OS doesn't have
2601 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2603 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
2604 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
2605 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
2607 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2609 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
2610 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
2612 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2614 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
2615 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
2618 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
2619 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
2621 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2623 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
2624 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
2625 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
2626 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
2627 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
2628 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
2630 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2632 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
2633 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
2635 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
2636 a file (currently need to specify full path).
2638 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2640 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
2641 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
2643 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2645 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
2646 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
2647 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
2649 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2651 * Released nmh-0.03.
2653 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
2654 .mh_sequence file existed.
2656 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
2657 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
2659 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
2660 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
2663 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2665 * Changed flist option -unseen to -[no]all. Cleaned up
2668 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2670 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
2671 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
2672 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
2674 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2676 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
2677 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
2678 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
2680 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2682 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL
2683 and allocate its own buffer. Borrowed from zsh.
2685 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
2687 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2689 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
2690 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
2691 directory from where the source code is located.
2693 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2695 * Released nmh-0.02.

2702 Tue Dec 31 03:07:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2704 * Changed code to use strerror, rather than using sys_errlist
2705 and sys_nerr directly.

2715 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
2716 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
2717 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
2718 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
2719 rather than in script.
2721 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2723 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
2725 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with
2726 macro defined on Solaris.
2728 Thu Dec 26 02:50:15 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2730 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
2731 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
2733 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
2734 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
2735 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
2736 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
2739 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2741 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
2742 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.
2744 * Fixed configure test so that termcap variable ospeed is
2747 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2749 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
2751 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included
2752 in mhn.c. Changed md5 to use memset and memcpy.
2754 Fri Dec 20 02:29:37 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2756 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
2757 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
2759 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2761 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
2762 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
2763 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
2764 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
2765 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
2766 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
2768 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2770 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
2772 * Released nmh-0.01.
2774 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
2775 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
2776 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
2779 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2781 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
2784 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2786 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
2787 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
2789 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2791 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
2792 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
2793 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
2794 script to find_program.
2796 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2798 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
2799 speed up -recurse option.
2801 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
2802 yet, but it compiles :-)
2804 * Changed default location for install to
2805 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
2806 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
2807 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
2810 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
2811 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
2812 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
