1 2008-08-13 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
3 * sbr/ambigsw.c: Send print_sw output to stderr. This avoids
4 strange problems with scan `pick -bogus`, not to mention being
7 * sbr/getans.c, sbr/print_help.c, uip/msh.c: Send print_sw output
10 * h/prototypes.h, sbr/print_sw.c (print_sw): Add FILE * argument
11 and send output there rather than to stdout.
13 * test/tests/pick/test-stderr: Add test that error messages don't
14 end up going to stdout.
16 2008-08-13 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
18 * uip/pick.c: Print matching messages immediately, instead of
19 waiting until the very end to print anything.
20 Ensure valid sequence name as soon as we parse it from command,
21 instead of searching the messages first.
23 2008-08-13 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
25 * uip/Makefile.in, uip/popi.c: Remove popi.c, which has been dead
26 since PatchSet 257 (2000/06/12 11:07:34 UTC).
28 2008-08-13 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
30 * h/mhparse.h: Move interfaces also used by mhbuildsbr.c here
33 * uip/Makefile.in (mhbuild): Build with mhparse.o.
35 * uip/mhbuildsbr.c: Drop the duplication of mhparse.c.
37 * uip/mhbuild.c, uip/mhlist.c, uip/mhn.c, uip/mhshow.c,
38 uip/mhstore.c, uip/mhtest.c: Drop check swdeclaration, which is
41 * uip/mhparse.c: Move some declarations to mhparse.h, and remove
42 'static' from the definitions here.
43 (get_ctinfo): Take magic mhbuild support from mhbuildsbr.c's copy,
45 (incl_name_value, extract_name_value): Move from mhbuildsbr.c to
46 support get_ctinfo change).
47 (get_content, open7Bit): Add Content-Disposition support, added to
48 mhbuildsbr.c's copy in mhbuildsbr.c r1.12 (PatchSet 549).
49 (InitText): Default to CHARSET_UNSPECIFIED instead of "US-ASCII",
50 as mhbuildsbr.c's copy did. Explain termproc.
51 (openBase64, openQuoted, open7Bit): Fix comment from r1.5:
52 suffixes, not prefixes.
53 (openMail): Explain showproc.
55 * test/tests/mhshow/test-cte-binary: Add test for
56 Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary (Debian #136976).
58 * test/tests/mhbuild/test-forw: Add an mhbuild test, testing forw
59 with and without RFC-934 mode. More mhbuild tests would be nice.
61 2008-08-13 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
63 * test/tests/bad-input/test-header: Add test for it.
65 * sbr/m_getfld.c: If we reach the end of the line without finding
66 a ':' when parsing a header field, treat that line as the
67 beginning of the body rather than blowing up. These messages are
68 usually spam, but it's nice to be able to at least scan them.
70 2008-08-12 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
72 * test/tests/mhshow/test-qp: Test various valid and invalid
75 * uip/mhparse.c (openQuoted): Simplify the decode-or-show for loop by
76 peeking ahead to the next byte(s) when encountering '=', and just let
77 invalid escape sequences through as literals (fixes bug #15245).
79 2008-08-12 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
81 * autogen.sh (new file): add script for running the GNU
82 autotools in the right order
83 * INSTALL: mention that you need to run autogen.sh if you
85 * docs/README.developers: mention autogen.sh rather than
86 suggesting running autoheader and autoconf by hand.
87 * test/setup-test: run autotools via autogen.sh
89 2008-08-08 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
91 * sbr/discard.c, sbr/m_getfld.c, uip/scansbr.c: Add support for
92 DragonFlyBSD stdio (from NetBSD pkgsrc).
94 2008-08-05 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
96 * uip/folder.c: chdir(nmhdir) in main rather than in dodir, which
97 is called many times. Drop the chdir in get_folder_info, which
98 served no purpose at all. If struct stat has d_type (BSD), use
99 that to skip processing (strcmp, stat, and so on) of message
100 files, mostly undoing the slow-down from the last change.
102 * configure.in: Call CHECK_TYPE_STRUCT_DIRENT_D_TYPE.
104 * aclocal.m4: Add CHECK_TYPE_STRUCT_DIRENT_D_TYPE from
107 2008-08-04 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
109 * uip/folder.c: Simplify dodir/addir/addfold. Dump hacky
110 over-optimization in addir that tried to avoid readdir after all
111 child directories had been read; this was also trying to support
112 symlinks to directories, but would have been failing (because
113 nlink may have gone to 0 with symlinks to directories remaining)
114 had the lstat usage been correct (lstat doesn't fail for normal
115 directories; should have used S_ISLNK).
117 2008-08-03 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
119 * test/setup-test: use 'set -e' so we stop on compile failure.
120 Configure --enable-debug for convenience in debugging.
122 * uip/whatnowsbr.c: bug #23319: rework the way we handle the working
123 directory when invoking the user's shell, so that we don't have
124 issues when the cwd contains a space or shell special character.
125 * test/tests/whatnow/test-attach-detach, test/tests/whatnow/test-cd,
126 test/tests/whatnow/test-ls: test cases for this.
128 * sbr/fmt_compile.c: add 'do { ... } while (0)' wrappers
129 to various multi-statement macros to avoid nasty surprises
130 if the macros are used in if() clauses.
132 * bug #23436: man/scan.man, man/forw.man, man/inc.man,
133 man/mh-chart.man, man/mhmail.man, man/mhshow.man,
134 man/mhstore.man, man/msgchk.man, man/packf.man, man/scan.man:
135 fix minor syntax errors groff warns about.
136 * test/runtest, test/README: allow test cases to report
137 that they have been SKIPped as well as PASS/FAIL
138 * test/tests/manpages/test-manpages - new test which runs groff
139 on the manpages and checks that there are no warnings.
140 * test/runalltests: ignore editor backup files
142 2008-08-03 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
144 * etc/replcomps, etc/replgroupcomps: Trim trailing whitespace from
147 2008-08-03 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
149 * sbr/fmt_compile.c: when doing an if-test on the result
150 of a function which returns a string result, check whether
151 the string is non-empty (as the documentation says we do).
152 Previously we were always testing the integer 'value'. Bug
153 spotted by Eric Gillespie.
154 * test/tests/repl/test-if-str: test case for this bug
156 2008-07-24 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
158 * test/setup-test: Run 'make clean' before building
160 2008-07-24 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
162 * test/runtest: cat test-temp-dir only once. Destroy and create
163 test Mail hierarchy here, so each test has its own independent
166 * test/setup-test: Drop needless pushd/popd, which don't exist in
167 sh anyway. Don't use aclocal, which is part of automake.
168 Don't create Mail hierarchy here (see test/runtest).
170 * test/tests/folder/test-create, tests/folder/test-total: Drop
173 * tests/pick/test-pick: Remove failing no-op test.
175 * test/tests/scan/test-scan: Write expected and actual output to
176 files and diff them. This way, if the output differs, diff
177 provides the FAILing exit code and shows the differences.
179 2008-06-12 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
180 * man/repl.man, etc/mhl.reply:
181 Add an attribution line when replying to messages.
183 2008-06-02 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
185 * h/mh.h, h/prototypes.h, sbr/done.c, uip/inc.c,
186 uip/mhbuild.c, uip/mhlist.c, uip/mhn.c, uip/mhshow.c,
187 uip/mhstore.c, uip/mhtest.c, uip/packf.c, uip/pick.c,
188 uip/rcvdist.c, uip/rcvstore.c, uip/sendsbr.c: when
189 building on gcc, use the noreturn attribute on various
190 functions (should improve code and avoid some spurious
191 'uninitialized variable' warnings).
193 2008-06-01 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
195 * docs/README.developers: update the bits about doing a
196 release announcement, now I've actually done one.
198 2008-05-22 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
200 * uip/scansbr.c: don't use MB_CUR_MAX if we aren't compiled
201 with multibyte support.
203 * uip/whatnowsbr.c: factor out common code for writing ls
204 shell command, and make it do more sensible buffer length
205 checks. Also avoid relying on the return value of sprintf(),
206 as some old systems don't return number of characters written.
208 2008-05-21 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
210 * sbr/utils.c (mh_xrealloc): don't assume realloc() can
211 handle NULL pointers; some non-POSIX realloc()s can't.
213 * sbr/dtimep.lex: add some table size declarations for the
214 benefit of elderly lexes with small defaults.
216 2008-05-18 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
218 * sbr/addrsbr.c: removed "err" from conditional, because gcc
219 correctly warned that it would always evaluate as true. It's
220 the address of a static array.
222 2008-05-16 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
224 * sbr/Makefile.in, config/Makefile.in: Don't use $< in target rules
225 in makefiles, as POSIX says it's only defined in inference rules.
227 2008-05-13 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
229 * configure.in, INSTALL: if --enable-masquerade is not
230 specified to configure, enable all supported masquerade forms.
231 This allows users to masquerade with the default
232 configuration. That seems to be more worthwhile now than
233 trying to prevent users from using it, especially with
234 single-user installations or those where a user can edit
237 2008-05-04 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
239 * bug #23167: sbr/ruserpass.c (ruserpass): make bad permissions
240 on .netrc be an instantly fatal error. Previously we returned
241 an error value; however, no caller was checking it. So now
242 ruserpass() has a void return type.
244 * bug #23163: various minor fixes for the benefit of
245 older Unixes (specifically SunOS 4):
246 reintroduce strerror() substitute implementation
247 provide memmove() substitute implementation
249 * bug #23163: fix accidentally broken 'build outside
250 source directory' feature
252 * bug #23162: sbr/dtime.c: fix stray HAVE_TM_GMTOFF that
253 wasn't updated to the new macro name.
255 2008-04-30 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
257 * mts/smtp/smtp.c: provide a callback for SASL_CB_AUTHNAME
258 (fixes issue with SASL sending the wrong username in some
259 circumstances). Thanks to <der_wachtmeister@freenet.de>
262 2008-04-29 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
264 * Revert previous attempt at fix for SASL issue as it
265 is the wrong approach.
267 * Fix in correct manner, by making sm_rrecord() and thus
268 sm_hear() set the length of the reply string correctly
269 (the SASL libraries now care if you pass in the wrong
272 * Correct various places in smtp.c where the reply string
273 might not have been correctly NUL-terminated. Includes a
274 fix for a particularly nasty and long standing screwup
275 where the buffer length counting in smhear() was totally
276 broken for continued lines from the server.
278 2008-04-29 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
280 * Cope with sasl_decode64() returning SASL_CONTINUE, as
281 happens with newer sasl libraries and LOGIN auth.
283 2008-04-27 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
285 * Updated some of the 'how to do a release' documentation.
287 * Upped the VERSION string to '1.3-dev', since 1.3-RC1 has
290 2008-04-27 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
292 * Released nmh-1.3 RC1.
294 2008-04-11 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
296 * acconfig.h, configure.in, sbr/dtime.c, sbr/pidwait.c,
297 uip/mhshowsbr.c, uip/rcvtty.c, uip/slocal.c, uip/termsbr.c:
298 move most remaining macros out of acconfig.h which is an
299 obsolete feature of autoconf
301 2008-04-05 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
303 * bug #18655: fix use of admonish() for a fatal error (should
304 be adios(); only actual effect would be wrong exit code).
305 Thanks to Craig Leres for spotting this.
307 2008-04-05 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
309 * bug #20028 (Debian bug 399271): fix code assuming that pointer
310 differences were 32 bits -- thanks to Dean Gaudet for the patch.
312 2008-01-25 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
314 * uip/mhshowsbr.c (show_all_messages): Be more generous when parsing
317 2007-11-04 Joel Reicher <joel@panacea.null.org>
319 * Changed done() link overriding to function pointer. Return type
320 is now void so that exit() can be used as done() callback. Dead
321 code return from all done()s removed, with return 1 in main()
322 following done() (should never be reached).
324 2007-08-21 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
326 * Red Hat Bug #253342: inc.c, utils.c, utils.h: When inc is run with
327 the -silent flag, don't exit(1) for no apparent reason.
329 2007-03-12 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
331 * bug #18630, #18631, #18632, #18634: various patches from
332 Craig Leres fixing error message argument problems.
334 2007-03-12 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
336 * bug #15212: configure.in, acconfig.h: remove configure test for
337 broken AT&T vi. This test was broken (it was always returning
338 failure even for non-broken vi implementations) and
339 unfixable. Nobody should be using AT&T vi any more so I have
340 simply moved it back to being a setting you can put manually into
341 acconfig.h if you must.
343 2006-10-24 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
345 * uip/sendsbr.c: with attachformat values of 1 or 2, add
346 name= portion to Content-Type header. This makes them
347 consistent with attachformat value 0. And it allows mhstore
348 to use that (file)name when extracting attachments.
350 2006-08-26 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
352 * configure.in: If we're not using dotlocking, there is no need to set
355 2006-03-30 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
357 * uip/sendsbr.c: with attachformat values of 1 or 2, only
358 generate Content-Disposition headers for MIME attachments, not
359 for the message contents themselves. Microsoft Outlook Build
360 10.0.6626, at least, doesn't show the message contents if they
361 have Content-Disposition.
363 2006-03-09 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
365 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c (decode_rfc2047): Don't close the iconv descriptor
368 2006-03-08 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
370 * (mh_strcasecmp): Rename the private strcasecmp function to
371 mh_strcasecmp. This keeps the newer gnu linker happy.
373 2006-03-05 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
375 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c: don't try to malloc 0 bytes if an RFC2047
376 encoded block is empty
378 2006-03-04 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
380 * etc/Makefile.in: use INSTALL_SCRIPT to install scripts;
381 this allows INSTALL_PROGRAM to be set to 'install -s' so
382 binaries are stripped on installation. Apparently the BSDs
385 2006-02-25 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
387 * uip/sendsbr.c: replaced st_mtim with st_mtime, that's what
388 it should have been. Added #include of h/tws.h to pick up
391 2006-02-20 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
393 * h/mh.h, h/prototypes.h, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, uip/send.c,
394 uip/sendsbr.c, uip/viamail.c, uip/whatnowsbr.c, man/send.man:
395 added -attachformat switch to send, to support alternate MIME
396 header contents when using -attach. See send man page for
399 * man/mhbuild.man: wrapped one appearance of "Content-Disposition"
400 with quotes, to be consistent with others.
402 2006-02-20 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
404 * h/utils.h, sbr/utils.c, uip/flist.c, uip/folder.c: Move duplicate
405 function num_digits into utils.c
407 2006-02-19 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
409 * sbr/m_draft.c, sbr/utils.c, uip/folder.c, uip/inc.c,
410 uip/mhstoresbr.c, uip/popi.c, uip/refile.c: Add create_folder()
411 function, replacing duplicate code during folder creation.
413 2006-02-18 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
415 * h/mime.h, h/mhparse.h, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, uip/mhfree.c,
416 man/mhbuild.man, docs/TODO: added support for an optional
417 Content-Disposition header in mhbuild (only). Its contents
418 are supplied between {}, positioned after the optional [], in
419 a mhbuild directive. If the contents do not contain a
420 "filename=" parameter, and the directive has a filename, or
421 something else that ends with "name=", then that will be used
422 to add a "filename=" parameter to the header.
424 2006-02-12 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
426 * docs/TODO: added RFC2183 to reference of RFC1806 for
427 Content-Disposition header.
429 2006-01-31 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
431 * uip/mhbuild.c, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, man/mhbuild.man: added
432 -nocontentid switch, to disable generation of Content-ID:
433 header in MIME messages. (Also added -contentid for
434 symmetry.) The default configuration of Microsoft Outlook,
435 Build 10.0.3416 in particular, doesn't see attachments in
436 incoming messages if there are Content-ID headers, see
437 http://home.cwru.edu/~wrv/eudoraoutlookfix.html. This allows
438 users to easily accomodate that by adding
439 mhbuild: -nocontentid to their .mh_profile.
441 2006-01-29 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
443 * bug 4360: uip/replsbr.c: remove trailing newlines from components
444 to fix bug with spaces at the end of Subject/References in replies
446 2006-01-18 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
448 * configure.in: use AS_HELP_STRING for formatting help messages
450 * configure.in, sbr/fmt_scan.c: add autoconf magic to support
451 old systems that don't support multibyte character sets
453 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: fix bug with insertion of newline being wrong if
454 the num function was used at the end of the format buffer
456 2006-01-17 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
458 * uip/post.c, uip/spost.c: in make_bcc_file (), use same
459 logic as in finish_headers () to detect whether there is an
460 existing From: line in the draft. If draft_from masquerade
461 flag is enabled, this allows the From: to be obeyed in the
462 Bcc, instead of the old behavior of always replacing it with
465 2006-01-17 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
467 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: more robust multi-byte/column support for field
468 widths, restoring right justification feature
470 2006-01-16 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
472 * h/aliasbr.h, h/rcvmail.h, man/Makefile.in, man/slocal.man,
473 sbr/lock_file.c, uip/aliasbr.c, uip/dropsbr.c, uip/post.c,
474 uip/slocal.c, man/mh-mts.man: remove remnants of code for MMDF
476 * uip/scansbr.c: multiply buffer size by MB_CUR_MAX so multi-byte
479 2006-01-14 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
481 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: Turn the PUTSF macro into a function capable of
482 handling multi column characters.
484 2006-01-07 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
486 * Remove sbr/strerror.c -- strerror(3) is defined in C89.
488 2006-01-06 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
490 * patch #3968: Move the add() function from its own file (add.c) and
491 into utils.c. There was also a duplicate add() function in mf.c which
494 2006-01-02 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
496 * Remove sbr/pwd.c file, moving the pwd() function into sbr/utils.c.
498 2006-01-01 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
500 * patch #3967: Create a mh_xrealloc function to prevent mistakes when
503 2006-01-01 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
505 * patch #3966: Create a mh_xmalloc function to prevent mistakes when
508 2005-12-24 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
510 * Bug #15285: Don't use $< in target rules in makefiles, as POSIX
511 says it's only defined in inference rules. (BSD make was expanding
512 $< to the empty string in the rule for building sbr/dtimep.c, which
513 causes lex to apparently hang because it's reading from stdin.)
515 2005-12-24 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
517 * Completely redo db library checking -- we now check for working
518 (include file, library) pairs rather than checking for headers and
519 libraries separately. We also now provide --with-ndbm=lib and
520 --with-ndbmheader=header options to configure to handle situations
521 where configure's autodetection fails.
523 2005-12-21 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
525 * Fix stupid accidental dependence on a bash quirk in previous
526 configure script change.
528 2005-12-15 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
530 * Improve checking for Berkeley db libraries: configure should now
531 find a suitable library on systems with new gdbm where
532 compatibility functions are in the gdbm_compat library, and on
535 2005-12-13 Michael Forrest <mef@computer.org>
537 * Fedora Bug #163760: sbr/context_read.c (context_read): Ensure that
538 the context is only read once.
540 2005-12-12 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
542 * uip/sendsbr.c (annoaux): Fix the call to annotate() fixing a bug
543 which prevented repl from properly annotating messages.
545 2005-12-07 Jon Steinhart <nmh@fourwinds.com>
547 * Fixed a bug where anno -append put the headers in the wrong place
548 if applied to a message that didn't contain any headers.
550 * Added a special value of "all" to the -number option that causes
551 anno -delete to delete all matching components instead of just
554 * Added new -preserve and -nopreserve options. Using -preserve
555 retains the original last accessed and last modified times on
558 2005-12-05 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
560 * Fedora Bug #174983: configure.in: Fix the AC_PATH_PROG default when
561 vi isn't found during build.
563 2005-11-19 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
565 * bug #14977: sbr/context_read.c: special case an MHCONTEXT of
566 "/dev/null" and don't try to lock it.
568 * bug #9228, debian bug #146449: man/mh-profile.man: make it clearer
569 that lower case environment variables (and in particular mheditor)
570 are internal to nmh and not intended to be set by the user.
572 2005-11-09 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
574 * sbr/mf.c: fix buffer overrun with absurdly long addresses
575 (only causes crashes if scan is run with '-width 16536' or similar)
577 * bug #7917: sbr/context_foil.c, sbr/context_read.c,
578 sbr/context_save.c: mark 'no context' with NULL rather than
579 "/dev/null" so we don't inadvertently try to lock /dev/null (which
580 takes up to a minute in some locking configurations and makes post
583 * patch #3913: uip/post.c: pass some globals into sm_init() so that
584 it uses SASL if necessary. (This bug was preventing Bcc'd emails
585 from being sent via SASL authenticated SMTP.)
587 * bug #9813: uip/rmf.c: don't crash if there's no Current-Folder
588 entry in the context file.
590 2005-11-13 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
592 * bug #7833: uip/Makefile.in: remove link to install-mh that caused
593 problems on some systems
595 * bug #739: Makefile.in: install target now depends on all to avoid
596 problem on case-insensitive file systems with the INSTALL file
598 2005-11-10 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
600 * Fedora Bug #172838: configure.in: Fix the AC_PATH_PROG default when
601 sendmail isn't found during build.
603 2005-11-09 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
605 * h/aliasbr.h: fix a non-ANSI prototype.
607 2005-11-08 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
609 * Simon Burge: acconfig.h, configure.in, uip/rcvtty.c, uip/slocal.c:
610 fix to handle getutent() on NetBSD
612 * INSTALL, README, docs/README.about, man/nmh.man: update most
613 references to the web page and mailing list locations
615 * bug #10230: etc/Makefile.in, man/Makefile.in, uip/Makefile.in:
616 Michael De La Rue: prepend DESTDIR to install locations
618 * configure.in, */Makefile.in, mts/smtp/smtp.c: replace obsolete
621 2005-11-06 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
623 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, sbr/fmt_scan.c, h/prototypes.h: fix various
624 possible overruns of the buffers in fmt_scan() which would cause
625 crashes if scan was run with '-width 16536' or similar.
627 * uip/popsbr.c: fix compile error which only showed up if nmh
628 was configured with --enable-apop.
630 * Debian Bug# 245932, RedHat Bug# 172388: uip/mhparse.c: don't
631 crash when handling a multipart MIME message with an invalid
632 Content-Type header (file handle was being fclose()d twice).
634 * sbr/Makefile.in: adjust lex command to work on both old and
635 new versions of flex.
637 * configure.in: add an AC_PREREQ() so autoconf 2.13 gives a helpful
638 error message and the Debian autoconf-version-guessing wrapper
639 doesn't guess wrongly.
641 2005-11-02 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
643 * Debian Bug# 320069: Nick Rusnov: uip/popsbr.c: fail when
644 kpop connection attempted without KPOP support compiled in
646 * Debian Bug# 320090: Nick Rusnov: sbr/Makefile.in: fix for newer
647 version of flex and remove autogenerated file from cvs
649 * patch #1155: uip/flist.c: speed up flist by skipping stat on
650 files with numbers as names
652 * docs/Makefile.in: include new files in distribution
654 2005-10-11 Bill Wohler <wohler@newt.com>
656 * docs/FAQ: fold questions into MH FAQ and distribute that instead
658 2005-10-05 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
660 * Harald Geyer: h/mh.h, uip/replsbr.c: back out previous change
661 (fork/vfork) and replace with code that handles the issue directly
663 2005-05-18 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
665 * Debian Bug# 143485: Nick Rusnov: h/mh.h: use fork instead of
668 * Debian Bug# 261592: Harald Geyer: uip/mhlsbr.c, uip/replsbr.c:
669 test/report error writing to stdout
671 * mts/smtp/smtp.c, uip/popsbr.c: correct SASL include file locations
673 * docs/COMPLETION-BASH: bash completion definitions from Debian
675 * patch #2863: savannah@brisammon.fastmail.fm: sbr/folder_read.c:
676 fix a bug affecting AFS where nmh was setting the READONLY flag
677 for a folder even when you do have write access to the folder
679 * Carl Mummert: h/fmt_compile.h, man/mh-format.man,
680 sbr/fmt_compile.c, sbr/fmt_scan.c: add unquote() function for
681 removing quotes from RFC-2822 encoded headers
683 2005-02-23 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
685 * use iconv to convert RFC-2047 encoded headers to the
686 character set used by the current locale
688 * sbr/folder_read.c fix Debian bug #202667: crash when a
689 message's filename overflows an int when converted
691 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
692 versions (from automake 1.9.5)
694 2005-02-21 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
696 * sbr/getpass.c fix bug where inc crashed on failing to reopen
699 2005-01-27 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
701 * Added -proxy option to inc and msgchk. Based on old patch
702 from Michael Richardson.
704 * On systems where it is available, use nl_langinfo to get the
705 character set if MM_CHARSET is unset
707 2005-01-21 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
709 * sbr/check_charset.c US-ASCII is a subset of UTF-8 so can be
710 handled directly when UTF-8 is being used
712 2004-12-17 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
714 * uip/mhmisc.c Fix -part option to mhshow/mhlist/mhstore to
715 find sub-parts of the specified part
717 2004-11-19 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
719 * h/prototypes.h, sbr/folder_addmsg.c, uip/mhstoresbr.c,
720 uip/rcvstore.c, uip/refile.c: Added mail directory argument to
721 folder_addmsg in order to make it possible to provide a path to
722 the ext_hook call that is mailpath-based. A problem existed when
723 a folder was a symbolic link and the pwd call would return the
724 path relative to the filesystem, not to mailpath. A new argument
725 was needed because there was otherwise no reasonable way to get
728 2004-11-16 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
730 * sbr/folder_pack.c: Fixed problem where the refile hook was being
731 called after a message was renamed so that it wasn't around for
732 the hook. The hook is now called before the message file is
735 * sbr/folder_addmsg.c: Fixed wrong directory for hook when
736 refiling with -src option.
738 2004-10-15 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
740 * uip/sortm.c: Fixed calling of external hooks.
742 2004-10-12 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
744 * uip/inc.c: Fixed another weird bug caused by the static
745 mailpath being overwritten.
747 * uip/sendsbr.c: Fixed bug that caused anno to mangle headers.
749 * sbr/lock_file.c: Fixed strange bug that prevented a lock from
750 ever being obtained if getting it failed the first time. The
751 problem was that the string of XXXXXX that is required by
752 mkstemp() was overwritten the first time through, and so all
753 subsequent times failed because mkstemp() failed. The fix
754 reinitializes the tmp file string.
756 * uip/inc.c: Fixed bug in which the static maildir was overwritted
757 if a format string was read from the profile.
759 * sbr/folder_delmsgs.c: Fixed bug that was producing an incorrect
760 path for the external hook.
762 2003-10-06 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
764 * uip/slocal.c, configure.in: db configuration fix for Debian; yet
765 another location for ndbm.
767 2003-09-30 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
769 * Fix 'pick' so handling of options "-list" and "-seq" are
771 * Fix 'inc' realloc error when bringing in more than 100 msgs
773 * Patches submitted by Nick Rusnov from Debian archive applied:
776 136976 - Handle binary content messages
777 143427 - mh-format.man typo
778 144098 - 'spost; should have same behavior as 'post'
779 w.r.t. mts.conf masquerade line
780 149745 - slocal ignores 'N' result of previous command
781 152728 - increase SMTP timeouts to conform to RFC 1123
782 The timeouts suggested by the RFC seem long
783 to me - but the RFC is still listed as active.
784 181867 - typo for nmh.man
786 2003-08-10 Jeffrey C Honig <jch@honig.net>
788 * Fix problem where parsing of address/date fields in fmt_compile
789 is optimized to the first instance. The first instance may be in
790 contitional code which will result in cached data to
791 be used. Instead, convert c_flags to a flags field from a boolean
792 and parse on the first use.
793 * Remove some unused flag bits.
795 Fri Jul 01 22:02:00 2003 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
797 * Applied fixes for configuration problems with Solaris and
798 systems with gdbm instead of db1 (includes bug #2024)
800 #578 - repl leaks umask
801 #1393 - sortm core dumps
802 #1650 - msh leaks file descriptors
803 #1730 - Double free() in mhfree.c:free_encoding()
804 #3356 - In-Reply-To header in default replcomps should be
806 * Revised man page for mh-format (bug #2031)
807 * New replcomps, etc, with Fcc: +outbox in default versions
809 Sat Mar 17 03:18:15 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
811 * Ken Hornstein's configure.in Cyrus SASL checks were doing
812 `x"$with_cyrus_sasl" != "no"' instead of `... != x"no"'.
814 Tue Mar 06 21:04:27 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
816 * Found some historical information about MH in RFC 808.
817 Supplemented it with info from Jerry Peek's MH book and added it
818 to docs/README.about.
820 Tue Feb 6 20:35:40 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
822 * sbr/dtime.c Use the same Y2K correction code as dtimep.lex
824 * sbr/dtimep.lex Restrict the parser to accept either
825 a numerical timezone offset, or a symbolic one (e.g. EST),
826 but not both (Since "2000 -400 EDT" might cause a double
827 subtraction of 60 minutes if both are parsed. One should be
830 Mon Feb 05 20:22:54 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
832 * -L isn't sufficient for specifying the path of the Cyrus SASL
833 shared library. That'll allow us to link successfully, but on
834 many/most OSes that won't allow us to find libsasl at runtime. On
835 Solaris, we need to specify the library path with -R as well (or
836 else the user will have to use the $LD_LIBRARY_PATH kludge, which
837 is considered harmful). This fix should be extended to other OSes
840 * Print whether we have SASL support in the "nmh configuration"
841 summary configure prints out.
843 * Say in README.developers to use `\date' in case anyone is like
844 me and has `date' aliased in their shell to use a nonstandard (but
845 subjectively more readable) format.
847 Thu Jan 25 21:15:52 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
849 * man/mh-chart.man has updated synposes of
852 Tue Jan 23 20:26:15 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
854 * etc/digestcomps tried to force dates into a
855 19xx when it's not necessary.
857 Fri Jan 19 21:22:08 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
859 * First round of manpage updates finished. They
860 are standardized on -man macros, with minimal
863 * man/tmac.h.in is no longer needed, since the
864 manpages do not depend on them anymore. Note:
865 strict "man" programs that didn't allow ".so"
866 sourcing outside the man tree will now format
867 the man pages correctly.
869 * man/vmh.1 is no longer built, since uip/vmh isn't
871 Tue Jan 9 6:01:22 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
873 * Finished manpages ali-prev
875 * Removed deprecated files from the repository.
876 Specifically, those rooted in zotnet/ and mts/sendmail
877 mts/mmdf. "cvs update -dP" will give a pruned directory
880 * Updated docs/Makefile.in to include README.manpages, and
881 uip/Makefile.in to include popi.c (which isn't being built,
882 though). This allows "make nmhdist" to create an archive that
883 is file-for-file identical to the current cvs repository.
885 Sun Dec 31 20:48:50 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
887 * Create docs/README.manpages, which details
888 the formatting rules I've been using.
892 Sat Dec 30 9:50:13 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
894 * Created a new file "DATE" to hold the date
895 of the most recent nmh release. This date will be
896 used in the manpages.
898 * Updated docs/README.developers to add the step
899 of updating DATE. Also, updated configure to
900 read in the contents of the file as the variable
903 * Started work on updating man pages, with only
904 ali finished so far. Changes: 1) no dependence
905 on an external macro file, 2) uses only
906 -man macros (although I may be mistaken in this),
907 3) syntax in the SYNOPSIS is a little more
908 in line with standard UNIX documentation, such as
909 bold flags and italicized parameters.
911 Sun Dec 24 10:06:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
913 * Updated INSTALL with information about the
914 --with-locking option.
916 * Fixed the Hesiod tests in configure.in. In
917 systems where res_send was in -lresolv, this
918 information was not being communicated to the
919 HESIOD_LIBS var. Now, if res_send is not found
920 in the default libraries, it's assumed to be
921 in -lresolv, and thus -lresolv is appended to
922 HESIOD_LIBS, which will need that to avoid
923 undefined symbols problems.
925 * Fixed the Kerberos tests in configure.in. New
926 versions of Kerberos 5 have renamed -lcrypto
927 to -lk5crypto (circa krb5 1.1 or thereabouts). The
928 new test tries to determine if -lk5crypto exists. If so,
929 this is a new krb5 system. If not, test for -lcrypto
930 and the rest of old krb5. If that fails, look
931 for a genuine krb4 installation.
933 Fri Dec 22 22:08:51 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
935 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in msgchk.man.
936 -snoop was documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
938 Fri Dec 22 23:42:16 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
940 * Made a new ./configure option called
941 "--with-locking" that allows the file
942 locking mechanism to be chosen there instead of
943 requiring a manual edit of config.h.
945 * If the option is not explicitly set, or an
946 invalid option is specified, "dot" locking is
947 chosen. Valid options are "dot", "fcntl",
948 "flock", and "lockf". We need a way to tell
949 the user that these are the valid options, and
950 change the flag "--with-locking" if it's not
953 Fri Dec 22 19:21:29 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
955 * Remove the lex-specific memory hints at the
956 beginning of sbr/dtimep.lex. We've already
957 committed to supporting flex only, since
958 lex does not easily allow us to parse a single
959 string, as well as other problems documented
960 below and on nmh-workers.
962 * Added a switch statement to configure.in to
963 test for Mac OS X. If this is the case, LDFLAGS
964 should not contain "-s" since the linker rejects
967 * Updated MACHINES to include Mac OS X Public Beta,
968 as well as Linux 2.4 running glibc 2.2.
970 Wed Dec 20 16:00:46 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
972 * Marked deprecated directories in docs/README.developers
973 as deprecated, with pointers to the new code location.
974 Eventually these deprecated directories should go away.
976 Tue Dec 19 19:16:37 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
978 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in inc.man. -snoop was
979 documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
981 Thu Dec 14 14:32:09 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
983 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
984 versions on ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/config, dated
985 12-07-00. This should prevent configure from failing
986 on newer operating systems because config.{guess,sub}
987 couldn't correctly identify them.
989 Thu Dec 14 1:30:44 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
991 * Fixed the circular dependency created when I moved
992 zotnet/mts to mts/generic and merged them into libmts.
993 mts/generic/client.c and mts/generic/mts.c are now in sbr/
994 (and thus in libmh), which makes libmh self-contained and
995 not depending on an external archive.
997 * All include statements now look for mts.h in h/. The
998 Makefiles and configure script have been modified so that
999 mts/generic is no longer built.
1001 Mon Dec 11 22:08:07 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1003 * When Shantonu made the new libmts.a, he swapped $(MTSLIB) and
1004 libmh.a in sbr/Makefile.in so that libmh.a comes first, but this
1005 causes the build to fail on Solaris, because libmts.a has to get
1006 ruserpass() out of libmh.a. Swapping them back to the way Ken
1007 Hornstein's patch (which I applied on Jul 20) put them, with
1008 libmh.a correctly coming second. If there are times when libmts.a
1009 needs to come second, then it would appear there's a circular
1010 dependency and someone (Shantonu?) did an mts merge incorrectly.
1012 Fri Sep 8 01:36:23 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1014 * Took out bad time textual time zones like BST and JST.
1015 I found them online somewhere, but am not sure if they're
1018 Fri Sep 8 00:36:48 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1020 * Moved zotnet/mts to mts/generic. This code reorganization
1021 makes the entire zotnet tree deprecated -- bboards is unneeded,
1022 mf was was moved to sbr, tws was rewritten and moved to sbr, and
1025 * Created a new static library called libmts.a used during
1026 compilation which includes the generic mts code and the
1027 smtp/sendmail code. This supercedes the functionality of the
1028 old libsmtp.a and the remains of libzot.a.
1030 * Updated header includes to reference the new location of mts.h
1031 in mts/generic/mts.h. Also, update the configure and top-level
1032 Makefile not to descend into zotnet. Also, they don't descend
1033 into mts/mmdf and mts/sendmail (the sendmail code has been
1034 merged into the smtp code).
1036 * Added #include <h/nmh.h> to h/md5.h, since my compile was
1037 complaining about implicitly-declared memcpy and memset, which
1038 appear to be in strings.h. In any event, nmh.h should take care
1041 * When doing a "make nmhdist", notice that the generated
1042 snapshot does not include zotnet of the mts directories as noted
1043 above. Since they are no longer compiled, and I don't see any
1044 obvious code path to get to them, end-users should probably
1045 not need them. If you think otherwise, turn Makefile generation
1046 back on in configure.in and turn on recursion into those dirs
1047 in the appropriate Makefile.in
1049 Wed Sep 6 22:40:03 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1051 * Tracked down the problem in the new dtimep where time
1052 zones were being radically misreported. It was because the
1053 parser knew about military time zones (such as M or E) but in
1054 some cases did not know about the textual representation of
1055 some zones (like MET). When it encountered one of these, the
1056 date parser misread MET as the military time zone T (well, first
1057 zone M, then E, and finally T). I took military zones out, and
1058 things seem much better. Also, the default behavior of parsing
1059 time zones appears to default to GMT in the absence of better
1060 info, which is less bogus than assuming the mail came from the
1061 current time zone, which was the behavior in 1.04.
1063 Thu Aug 10 13:22:13 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1065 * Decided that limiting the message number columns to 3 on my
1066 scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD (to try to regain space taken by
1067 extra date info) was ill-conceived. It's not that tough to get
1068 past 999 messages, though I imagine it's rather rare to exceed
1069 9999. Changed these to 4. Also put the "replied / encrypted"
1070 column back in YYYYMMDD -- I've never seen it show anything but a
1071 space, but that space is useful if you use scan, grep, and awk
1072 (with the default field separator) to grab message numbers (I know
1073 -- pick should really be used for these purposes...).
1075 Mon Aug 7 20:11:09 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1077 * Modify umask set by mhshow to enable user execute bit, so that
1078 viewers that create temporary directories (e.g., lynx) will be
1079 able to access them.
1081 Thu Aug 03 17:14:08 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1083 * TODO: Allow multiple simultaneous differing contexts, probably
1084 each tied to a parent (terminal) process.
1086 Tue Aug 1 10:48:05 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
1088 * Makefile install rules should not look for generated files in
1089 the source tree -- this will happen to work when configuring and
1090 building inside the source tree but will fail when using an
1091 external build tree. Fixed etc/Makefile.in.
1093 Mon Jul 24 16:20:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1095 * When Shantonu wrote the new, more portable dtimep.lex, he left
1096 out the #ifdef DSTXXX stuff for some reason. Not a good idea, as
1097 that code is required for proper printing of numeric-offset
1098 timezones that have daylight saving time. Without that code,
1099 -0700 during DST gets printed as MST instead of PDT.
1101 * Renamed DSTXXX as ADJUST_NUMERIC_ONLY_TZ_OFFSETS_WRT_DST and
1102 added an explanatory comment by its #definition.
1104 * Updated README.developers with the fact that zotnet/tws is going away.
1106 Thu Jul 20 20:30:52 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1108 * Moved Kimmo's new "--with-hash-backup" to be output with the
1109 rest of the --with options in the configure --help output. Also,
1110 people did not preserve my alphabetization of the --with options
1111 when they added new ones. Re-alphabetized.
1113 * One more pass at README.developers now that it's clear that my
1114 previously-suggested one-line autoconf-file commit can cause
1115 unnecessary local makes and an out-of-sync stamp-h.in file, but
1116 would not cause problems for other people using the CVS files.
1118 * Ken Hornstein's SASL patch was not integrated properly with
1119 Ruud's new merged mts/sendmail code. Kimmo has since fixed nmh so
1120 it compiles, but according to Ken, the SASL stuff still does not
1121 work. Integrating a patch from him for this.
1123 * Last pass at README.developers -- Kimmo's 5-step commit was
1124 overkill. You only need 3 steps, since configure.in is the only
1125 autoconf file with the RCS $Id keyword.
1127 * Applied Kurt J. Lidl <lidl@eng.us.uu.net>'s $MAILHOST patch:
1129 I have a small patch that would be nice to be included --
1130 basically, it allows the usage of the "MAILHOST" environment
1131 variable, without having to have HESIOD turned on. I need
1132 this functionality for my environment, where we have identical
1133 /usr/local on all my machines (so I cannot just hardcode into
1134 the mts.conf file), and I have multiple POP mail servers for
1137 Modified inc.man to reflect that along with "pophost:" and -host,
1138 $MAILHOST can now activate POP mail inclusion as well.
1140 * Fixed warnings from diff on first-time install of nmh. Also
1141 added 'echo's clarifying the etc file installation activities.
1143 Tue Jul 18 19:36:59 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
1145 * Added the answer to Dan's question in README.developers.
1147 Mon Jul 17 19:10:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1149 * Clarified and made some corrections to Kimmo's README.developers
1150 changes (BTW, if anyone can explain why the RCS Ids are able to cause
1151 problems with the dependencies, please fill in the explanation --
1152 I never encountered a problem with the old single-commit method).
1154 Sat Jul 15 23:13:49 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
1156 * Add configure option --with-hash-backup so the backup prefix can
1157 be easily changed from "," to "#".
1159 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that it works with any make.
1161 * Use mkstemp in sbr/lock_file.c.
1163 * Commits of autoconf-related files apparently can't all be done
1164 in one shot due to RCS Ids changing when committing -- updated
1167 Tue Jul 11 14:18:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1169 * Clarified post.man and send.man for those not completely up on
1170 SASL terminology. "SASL encryption layers are not supported for
1171 SMTP" means that encryption is supported for the authentication
1172 but not for the subsequent data stream.
1174 Sat Jul 8 01:36:19 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
1176 * Applied Ken Hornstein <kenh@cmf.nrl.navy.mil>'s patches
1177 implementing SASL support for POP3 and SMTP. If nmh is compiled
1178 with SASL support, using the -sasl switch on the inc, msgchk,
1179 post, and send commands will enable authentication encryption for
1180 SMTP, and both authentication and data stream encryption for POP3.
1182 Sat Jun 10 18:37:59 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1184 * Merged mts/sendmail functionality into mts/smtp; switching between
1185 smtp and sendmail delivery method is now controlled by mts.conf.
1187 * If tsort cannot deal with loops, in addition to defining tsort as
1188 cat, also define lorder as echo.
1190 * Removed uip/popi.c from list of sources.
1192 Thu Jun 08 19:36:57 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1194 * New dtimep.lex didn't parse day names properly. Fixed. Also
1195 clarified ambiguous comments preceding day_map[] array (from old
1196 dtimep.lex) that probably led to the erroneous cp++ being added.
1198 Wed Jun 7 20:52:33 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1200 * Added one more mkstemp invocation to uip/spost.c (which was in a
1203 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to clean up permissions handling
1204 and error handling in uip/inc.c.
1206 Mon Jun 5 22:10:07 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1208 * Use cat instead of tsort if tsort cannot deal with loops in its
1209 input (which is the case for tsort from GNU textutils).
1211 Mon Jun 5 21:14:36 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1213 * If lockfile is present, and its dotlockfile program is setgid,
1214 inc does not need to be setgid.
1216 Sun Jun 4 21:35:40 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1218 * Added autoconf test for Miquel van Smoorenburg's liblockfile
1219 library, as found on Debian systems.
1221 * Added liblockfile support to sbr/lock_file.c.
1223 Wed May 31 7:19:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1225 * Fixed up dtimep.lex a bit. Added back memory options for AIX to
1226 increase available memory. Took out %option noyywrap, which
1227 wasn't understood by AT&T lex, as well as the -i
1228 case-insensitivity flag.
1230 Wed May 31 07:40:45 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1232 * Added a lint target to the Makefiles and a check in autoconf
1233 to determine whether lint or lclint exists on the system.
1235 Fri May 30 19:21:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1237 * etc/Makefile.in was incorrectly installing mts.conf.in and
1238 sendfiles.in -- fixed. Generated sendfiles script was not a
1239 dependency of the `all' target, and was incorrectly included in
1240 the distribution. Changed the suffix for the backed-up previous
1241 versions of the etc files from the ambiguous .old to .prev. Added
1242 call to diff -- only keep the .prev files around if different from
1243 the newly-installed versions (intentionally didn't redirect output
1244 to /dev/null so you'll notice when your changed versions are
1245 getting moved aside).
1247 * INSTALL never documented the etc/*.old thing. Documented the
1248 new etc/*.prev thing (including a note to watch for diff output).
1250 * Applied Alec Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu>'s dropsbr.c patch:
1252 In the map_write routine, a call is made to map_open and this
1253 call is supposed to set the "clear" variable to 0 or 1,
1254 depending on whether the map file is empty or not. In
1255 mh6.8.3, this worked because map_open would set "clear" by
1256 calling the mbx_Xopen routine. In nmh, the code for mbx_Xopen
1257 was merged into mbx_open, but the interface for mbx_open
1258 doesn't support the clear variable, so that functionality was
1259 lost. The map_open interface still contains "int *clear" in
1260 the prototype, but never sets it.
1262 My patch eliminates "clear" from the map_open interface (I
1263 checked to make sure that map_write is the only client of
1264 map_open). Furthermore, my patch also sets the "clear"
1265 variable properly at the beginning of map_write by calling
1266 fstat(). This eliminates the bug in that the value of "clear"
1267 being used later in the routine was just stack garbage.
1269 Having a bad value of clear causes this next bug to be
1270 triggered: The fp file pointer was being opened with fdopen,
1271 but in two of the three switch cases it wasn't being closed.
1272 In certain cases, this was causing packf to run out of file
1273 descriptors if you attempted to pack a large folder.
1275 Mon May 29 7:48:15 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1277 * Moved the date parsing routines from zotnet/tws to sbr/ (and
1278 tws.h to h/). Updated all source files to reflect to new location
1281 * Rewrote dparsetime (in dtimep.lex -> dtimep.c) to replace the
1282 old zotnet/tws/dtimep.c, dtimep.lex, lexstring.c, lexedit.c, and
1283 dtimep.c-lexed. It should now work with flex (although untested
1284 with lex), and requires no sed-ing. For now, I have the lexed
1285 version in the distribution, so that end-users don't need to worry
1286 about running it through flex/lex. I have not added back support
1287 for guessing the time zone when it's not specified.
1289 Sun May 28 17:44:15 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1291 * Added autoconf check for getutent().
1293 * Changed uip/rcvtty.c and uip/slocal.c to use getutent() and
1294 friends. Since I can only check on Linux, please check if
1295 this works on other systems.
1297 Sun May 28 14:58:49 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1299 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to uip/scansbr.c for more
1300 checks for write failures.
1302 * Unlink temporary file properly in uip/rcvtty.c.
1304 * Moved viamail from bindir to libdir.
1306 * Changed sendfiles into sendfiles.in, so that path to viamail
1309 * Added gzip support to sendfiles.
1311 * Added References header to replcomps and replgroupcomps.
1313 Sun May 28 14:39:31 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1315 * Fixed m_getfld bug which caused segmentation faults when
1316 incorporating messages which ended in multiple linefeeds crossing
1319 Fri May 26 13:21:59 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1321 * msh has been unable to show MIME messages ever since 1.0. Alec
1322 Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu> tracked down the problem to the
1323 -show flag being passed to mhshow. mhshow is equivalent to the
1324 old mhn -show, so we don't need the -show anymore. Removed it.
1326 Fri May 12 02:51:21 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1328 * zotnet/bboards is not longer built by default. Goal is to move
1329 the assorted functions in zotnet into sbr or some more logical
1332 * Moved zotnet/mf to sbr, and changed mf.h references accordingly,
1333 as well as Makefiles.
1335 Thu May 11 02:21:34 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1337 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that both SRCS and OBJS aren't
1338 seperately and redundantly defined, but so that OBJS is a
1339 pattern-substituted version of SRCS with suffix .c -> .o. This
1340 should make maintainability easier.
1342 * Added section to MACHINES indicating what platforms nmh is known
1343 to compile and work on, just to give users peace of mind, or
1344 something. This is by no means complete or exhaustive, so add
1345 whatever you know works.
1347 Tue May 09 20:38:04 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1349 * Alphabetized Shantonu's $pop_kinds output on configure's "pop is
1350 enabled" line. If POP3 is the only kind of POP enabled, say so,
1351 rather than just saying "yes" (which is ambiguous).
1353 * Fixed four warnings in Shantonu's new getpass.c. Needed to
1354 #include <stdlib.h> for calloc(), <unistd.h> for ttyname(), and
1355 "h/mh.h" for adios(). Also changed ch from char to int to get rid
1356 of "comparison is always 1 due to limited range of data type" on EOF.
1358 * Added steps to README.developers saying to change the version
1359 number to X.Y.Z+dev. Did a little rearranging and changed the FTP
1360 dir from /home/ftp to /var/ftp to reflect Doug's new machine.
1362 * Changed configure.in to use gcc -Wall even without
1363 --enable-debug, to prevent developers compiling optimized from
1364 introducing warnings, and to give end-users a warm, fuzzy feeling
1365 as they (hopefully) see no warnings come out (except perhaps on
1366 the lex output file) even with -Wall.
1368 * Renamed getpass() to nmh_getpass() since the prototype for
1369 getpass() varies from OS to OS, and we want to _always_ use our
1370 version of the function. Fixed all the callers to use
1371 nmh_getpass() and added it to prototypes.h. Semi-arbitrarily
1372 upped MAX_PASSWORD_LEN from 128 to 256. buf was being calloc()'d
1373 and the memory leaked -- should have just been declared as static
1374 char array. Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the
1375 copyright message, as this version has been changed significantly
1376 from the BSD version.
1378 * Added "nmh-local functions to use in preference to OS versions"
1379 section to README.developers (currently just says to use
1380 nmh_getpass() instead of system getpass()).
1382 * Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the copyright message
1383 in ruserpass.c also.
1385 * Added mts.conf.5 page per Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s
1388 This happens on solaris:
1391 windex entry incorrect: mts.conf(5) not found.
1392 No manual entry for mts.conf.
1396 % echo ".so man5/mh-tailor.5" > mts.conf.5
1398 done in the man5 directory. We need to add 'mts.conf.5' as a
1399 reference sourcing mh-tailor.5.
1401 Mon May 08 23:51:55 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1403 * Doug informed me that the way I had restored the "lost" version
1404 histories was wrong, because `cvs checkout's of old versions of
1405 nmh wouldn't work properly. It occurs to me that this could be
1406 fixed by simply deleting those tags in the new-location *,v files,
1407 but oh well. I'm putting everything back to the way Doug
1408 originally had it. To get the old version history for a file that
1409 used to be in the top directory, you'll need to "blindly" do a
1410 `cvs log' there (even though you won't have a local copy of the
1411 file in that directory). `cvs diff' will no longer be able to
1412 diff pre-move versions vs. post-move versions -- you'll have to do
1413 a lot of manual gyrations with `cvs checkout' and then use `diff'.
1415 * I had alphabetized the --configure options in the --help output
1416 awhile back, but Shantonu added --enable-apop just under
1417 --enable-pop. Put it in alphabetical order and clarified what
1418 --enable-apop does vs. --enable-pop and --with-krb4. Also changed
1419 --with-mts help line from "mail transport agent" to "mail
1420 transport agent/service" so the 's' in "mts" doesn't seem to come
1423 * Added two steps to "releasing nmh" in README.developers. After
1424 making the tarball, it's a good idea to diff the tree vs. the CVS
1425 tree to make sure no files got left out, and then to chown the
1426 files so that they're owned by root, preventing a Trojaning attack
1427 by a malicious remote user with a UID matching yours.
1429 * Changed DIFFERENCES to say that RPOP is not currently supported
1430 rather than implying it by saying that APOP, KPOP, and POP[3] are.
1432 Sun May 07 18:16:43 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1434 * Imported NetBSD version of getpass() and made extensive
1435 revisions for compatibility with programs that pipe the password
1436 to stdin, such as exmh.
1438 * Removed tests for system ruserpass() which sometimes gave
1439 phantom positive results. Also, bext to use internal functions if
1440 we ever want to change .netrc format to something else, or access
1443 Sat May 06 08:28:09 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1445 * Restored lost version histories for those moved files by doing a
1446 manual `mv' in the CVSROOT on mhost. CVS badly needs a `cvs mv'
1447 command so that you can move files (without having physical access
1448 to the CVSROOT) without losing versioning. Put MACHINES back at
1449 the top level as it needs to be read before building. Fixed DIST
1450 variable in {.,docs}/Makefile.in to reflect that and to add
1451 missing entry for "INSTALL" file.
1453 Sat May 06 13:13:07 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1455 * Re-cleaned up nmh documentation (by moving things to docs
1456 subdir) and modified Makefile & configure.in to handle the change.
1458 Mon Apr 17 21:28:40 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1460 * Scott Blachowicz pointed out that the configure --help output
1461 for --enable-masquerade was misleading. Clarified.
1463 Mon Apr 17 19:01:00 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1465 * APOP support can be compiled in to inc and msgchk using
1468 * To access an APOP host, specify -apop on the command line
1469 along with any -host or -user option.
1471 Fri Apr 14 23:10:44 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1473 * Upped the version number to 1.0.4+dev until the next nmh release.
1475 * Added a "releasing nmh" section to README.developers, while the
1476 process was fresh in my mind.
1478 Fri Apr 14 18:21:34 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1480 * Added new files README.developers, ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6, and
1481 ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html to DIST target in Makefile.in.
1483 * Released nmh-1.0.4.
1485 Tue Apr 11 21:37:03 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1487 * Applied Brian Campbell <bacam@tardis.ed.ac.uk>'s mhn.defaults.sh
1490 It appears that there shouldn't be quotes around the %s in the
1491 iso-8859-1 charset entry; xterm passes the remaining arguments
1492 to the program, quoting them means that xterm thinks they're
1493 part of the program's name.
1495 This %s isn't the same as the "Insert content subtype" one from
1496 mhshow-show-* -- it doesn't come from MIME headers and is safe not
1499 Sun Apr 09 13:03:59 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1501 * added check in fmt_compile() to handle a single-character
1502 format string. fmt_compile() depends on having an array of
1503 format characters with an empty item at the end. A
1504 single-character format would cause programs using this
1505 function to segfault because the algorithm used to decide on
1506 the length of the array mistakenly created a single-item array
1507 when the format string was one character. This eventually
1508 caused problems when the program attempted to test item+1
1511 Thu Apr 06 21:53:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1513 * Richard Coleman threw out a lot of old MH-specific files in nmh.
1514 Much of the stuff, indeed, is not worth saving, but there are
1515 nuggets that are very worthwhile, and should probably be added
1516 back in. Most important, IMHO, are the MH change logs, as they
1517 can help answer questions like "Why is this code like this?" or
1518 "How long has this been broken?" or "What was this ever used for?"
1520 I've added a new file to the nmh tree called
1521 ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6. It's cobbled together from the
1522 mh-6.8.4/papers/mh*/MHCHANGES files. I've re-ordered the entries
1523 to go from newest at the top to oldest at the bottom to match the
1524 ChangeLog convention. Unfortunately there are no change logs for
1525 versions of MH prior to 3 in the MH tar files available at
1526 <ftp://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/mh>. Also, it appears to me that there
1527 are MH-6.6 changes that aren't documented in the logs.
1529 I've also added ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html. This is
1530 based on mh-6.8.4/papers/changes/mh-changes.ms. The nroff format
1531 and its "catman"-type output are a pain to deal with, but I was
1532 loath to throw away the formatting, so I converted the file to
1533 HTML. The only actual markup in the body are the "<B>" and "<U>"
1534 tags, and "<" and ">" instead of '<' and '>', so it's quite
1535 doable to view the file in plain ASCII mode as well. Note that
1536 some of the changes this file documents as having been made in
1537 MH-6.8.4 may not be present in nmh -- Richard started with 6.8.3
1538 and later put in certain 6.8.4 stuff.
1540 Wed Apr 05 21:09:28 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1542 * Applied Eric Schnoebelen <eric@cirr.com>'s mhshowsbr.c patch
1543 fixing apparent bugs in Dan Winship's new security quoting code:
1545 Since upgrading, I've been getting the following errors
1546 while attempting to process some MIME messages:
1548 (1) Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
1553 (2) line 1/10 (END)Segmentation fault (core dumped)
1555 (2) appears to be due to the testing of an unset pointer in
1556 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux(). (1) appears to be caused by
1557 mis-quoting a filename being handed to the shell in
1558 mhshowsbr.c:show_content_aux().
1560 Resolving the pointer reference issue in
1561 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux() turned up a similar mis-quoting
1562 problem in the routine.
1564 Tue Mar 28 16:17:39 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1566 * Applied Todd.Miller@courtesan.com's patch to dropsbr.c to
1567 prevent core dumping on packf. Here's the note from his message:
1569 Since sizeof(buffer) == sizeof(tmpbuffer) packf will dump
1570 core on a file w/o a From line with a line >= BUFSIZ.
1571 I noticed this because I had a junk file in my mail
1574 Fri Mar 17 11:59:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1576 * wesley.craig@umich.edu did not document his previous KPOP patch,
1577 so I did so, and asked him to check what I wrote. Unfortunately
1578 he didn't notice my misunderstanding of his patch. I wrote that
1579 if you #define POPSERVICE "kpop", inc and msgchk will use KPOP
1580 exclusively, but if you leave it as "pop3", you can use Wesley's
1581 new -kpop switch on a given invocation. Instead, however, -kpop
1582 turned out to be necessary on every invocation, and a KPOP user
1583 complained. Applied Wesley's new patch, which makes things work
1584 like I thought his original patch did. After that, did one more
1585 clarifying pass to the documentation in inc.man and msgchk.man.
1587 Wed Mar 15 18:45:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1589 * When I fixed the long-standing makedir() bugs in January, I had
1590 the code call strtoul(..., 0), which I believed to be safe as all
1591 modes specified as ASCII constants in the nmh code started with a
1592 leading zero (signifying octal), which I did as it would work if
1593 internal constants were ever changed to hex. Unfortunately I was
1594 unaware of the "Folder-Protect:" .mh_profile entry, which
1595 mh-profile.man documents as an octal-only constant, with no
1596 leading zero required. I've changed the strtoul() call to an
1597 atooi() call and removed the misleading leading zeroes on the
1598 ASCII octal constants in the code and man pages. Also changed the
1599 "Folder-Protect:" example in the man page to something more
1600 interesting than a duplication of the default.
1602 * When I added my --enable-masquerade option, you'll note that I
1603 didn't make it --enable-nmh-masquerade. I find the --enable-nmh-*
1604 options too wordy and I'm not sure why Richard went that route.
1605 I've renamed them to just --enable-*, but the old versions will
1606 still work as well (they just aren't advertised).
1608 * Added a line to the "nmh configuration" output saying whether
1611 * Added a new README.developers file. From the file:
1613 This file is intended to provide a few tips for anyone doing
1614 development on nmh. Developers who learn things "the hard
1615 way" about the nmh codebase (as opposed to local info best
1616 encoded in a comment) are encouraged to share their wisdom
1619 Currently the topics are "autoconf files" and "directory structure".
1621 Tue Mar 14 12:41:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1623 * Applied, after some finessing,
1624 Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s --with-smtpservers patch:
1626 Here's a patch that allows you to add
1628 --with-smtpservers=<some.host.name>
1630 to the ./configure command line to set the "servers: " line in
1631 etc/mts.conf. Around here, we use "mailhost" so that all
1632 machines in the current domain just talk to a central machine
1633 and nothing else runs an MTA. Now, I can use
1635 --with-smtpservers=mailhost
1637 instead of having to remember to fix this by hand (and often
1638 forgetting to do so!).
1640 * Inspired by Simon's patch, added an --enable-masquerade option
1641 to configure. It will set the "masquerade:" line of mts.conf.
1642 You may specify a subset of the three types of masquerading, like
1643 --enable-masquerade="draft_from mmailid", or leave off explicit
1644 arguments to enable all three types.
1646 * Alphabetized the --enable and --with options in configure.in and
1647 INSTALL and added documentation of the two new options to the latter.
1649 * Added new dependency for mts.conf: Makefile. If this isn't
1650 done, then when you reconfigure nmh with new values for
1651 --enable-masquerade or --with-smtpservers, you'll fail to get an
1652 updated copy of mts.conf.
1654 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtimep.lex patch:
1656 It seems that some MUA's didn't handle y2k very well - ELM
1657 seems to be one of them, and Ultrix's DXmail (based on MH!).
1658 I've got a few emails this month that look like:
1660 575 Jan 00 Xxxxxx Xxxx 3603 ...
1662 22+ Jan 00 Xxx Xxxxx 1771 ...
1664 The first has "15 Jan 100" as the date and the second has
1665 "19 Jan 00" as the date. The following works around this so
1666 that scan, show, sortm, etc work ok.
1668 I put Simon's patch under the control of a new #define called
1669 FIX_NON_Y2K_COMPLIANT_MUA_DATES. There's some commentary in
1670 acconfig.h about when you might not want to #define it.
1672 * Created new dtimep.c-lexed with Simon's change using dtimep.lex
1673 lexed on Solaris 2.6. Added missing dependency in
1674 zotnet/tws/Makefile.in for dtimep.c: dtimep.c-lexed.
1676 * Added scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD format files.
1678 Mon Mar 13 21:32:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1680 * Applied Sullivan N. Beck <sbeck@cise.ufl.edu>'s mhshow-suffix patch:
1682 With the patch below, you can add lines like:
1684 mhshow-suffix-application/msword: .doc
1685 mhshow-suffix-application/PostScript: .ps
1687 to the mhn.defaults file to append the given suffix to a
1688 scratch file. This allows applications which require a
1689 certain suffix to run properly.
1691 * Removed -force_html from lynx entry in mhn.defaults.sh (I
1692 believe older versions of lynx lack that option) and added
1693 "mhshow-suffix-text/html: .html".
1695 * Modified username_extension masquerading to only use the
1696 extended address on generated [Resent-]From: lines and SMTP
1697 envelope From:. With Neil's original implementation, nmh's global
1698 idea of the username was changed, which would result in inc lying
1699 and saying you had no new mail because it was looking for a
1700 mailbox called, for instance, "dan-nmh" (where username was "dan"
1701 and $USERNAME_EXTENSION was "-nmh").
1703 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtime.c patch:
1705 There's a wrap-around problem that affects the implementation
1706 of Zeller's congruence in dtime.c. This causes the day-of-week
1707 calculations to fail for dates after Feb 29, 2000 (probably up
1708 until some year far in the future).
1710 Mon Mar 06 12:20:20 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1712 * Applied Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s msh.c patch:
1714 I finally tracked down the problem in msh that was causing
1715 errors whenever I tried to examine a 'mmdf' style mailbox.
1717 It turns out that not enough memory was being allocated with
1718 calloc(), causing memory pointers to be overwritten and
1721 Fri Mar 03 16:07:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1723 * Changed the new "plussed_user" option to mts.conf's
1724 "masquerade:" to "username_extension" after getting feedback from
1725 qmail users, who use '-' as a separator rather than '+'. Removed
1726 checking of $USERPLUS variable. Now check $USERNAME_EXTENSION,
1727 which needs to include the appropriate separator for your MTA
1728 ('-', '+', or whatever) as its first character.
1730 Thu Mar 02 23:04:30 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1732 * Added a new "boolean" type to mh.h and TRUE and FALSE constants.
1734 * Added a note to DIFFERENCES stating that it's out-of-date
1735 (Richard was the last one to update it) and that we should
1736 consider only documenting incompatibilities with MH there.
1738 * Implemented (and documented) a third kind of username
1739 masquerading: "plussed user" masquerading. This one was suggested
1740 by Neil Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>. It's based on sendmail's
1741 "plussed user" feature, where mail sent to <user>+<string> will be
1742 delivered to <user>. When it's enabled, it's controlled by the
1743 $USERPLUS environment variable. How is it enabled? Well, that
1746 * Renamed the "mmailid:" setting in mts.conf to "masquerade:", and
1747 changed it so that rather than being a boolean, it can be set to
1748 any combination of the three values "draft_from", "mmailid", and
1749 "plussed_user". Thus it is now possible to enable the three types
1750 of masquerading individually.
1752 * Fixed a bug with "mmailid" masquerading (dating back to MH?)
1753 where if it was turned on, ','s would no longer be considered
1754 GECOS field delimiters.
1756 Wed Mar 01 23:30:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1758 * Changed the GECOS-field '&' translation behavior to be
1759 controlled by the BSD42 #define rather than GCOS_HACK, since it's
1760 apparently always appropriate on OSes where BSD42 is #defined, and
1761 never appropriate on any other OSes. Thanks to Kimmo Suominen for
1762 responding to my "What is this code here for?" comment in mts.c
1763 and explaining the feature.
1765 Mon Feb 28 21:50:29 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1767 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3+dev (ideally this should be
1768 done by whoever makes a release tar file, immediately after doing
1771 * Applied Paul Fox <pgf-spam@foxharp.boston.ma.us>'s scansbr.c
1772 patch, posted to comp.mail.mh, which he says prevents loss of mail
1773 when inc'ing into a full filesystem.
1775 * Changed "echo > stamp-h.in" in Makefile.in to "date > stamp-h.in"
1776 so that stamp-h.in will be different each time configure.in and
1777 related files are changed, making it easier to check it in (which
1778 is necessary to prevent unnecessary autoconf calls).
1780 * My declaration of initgroups() in slocal.c to eliminate the "no
1781 prototype" warning wasn't portable (FreeBSD 3.[23] choked). Now
1782 use AC_EGREP_HEADER to see where initgroups() is declared, if
1785 Sun Feb 20 12:17:15 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1787 * Fix security hole in mhshowsbr.c which allowed untrusted shell
1788 code to be executed.
1790 * Released nmh 1.0.3.
1792 Thu Feb 10 10:54:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1794 * Oops. %-escapes on mhstore lines in mhn.defaults.sh should not
1795 be surrounded by single quotes, as a shell is not spawned when
1796 just saving files, and the filenames will end up with literal
1797 quotes embedded in them.
1799 Fri Feb 04 12:29:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1801 * Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
1802 got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
1803 the -help output. One theory is that they were making reference
1804 to the fact that clearly you know about the -help option since
1805 you're currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea
1806 to overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
1807 supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
1810 The other theory is that because you can say something like
1811 "mhstore -" and get "mhstore: - ambiguous. It matches" followed
1812 by the same list of switches you get with -help, they were saying
1813 you can "sorta" abbreviate "-help" as "-". You don't get the
1814 "Usage:" string, though, so it's not really the same thing.
1816 Thu Feb 03 17:52:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1818 * Applied wesley.craig@umich.edu's KPOP patches. According to him:
1820 The following patch fixes a problem with requesting a
1821 service key for a machine that has multiple 'A' records. It
1822 also makes "-kpop" a command line option, for users who
1823 would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".
1825 Did no testing of the new features, as I don't have access to a
1828 * Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
1830 * Modified INSTALL and config.h.in to reflect the new -kpop feature.
1832 Fri Jan 28 17:39:24 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1834 * All %-escapes in mhn.defaults that actually expand to something
1835 should be surrounded by single quotes. Added quotes to the ones
1836 in mhn.defaults.sh that were missing them.
1838 * Added check for lynx to write mhshow-show-text/html line in
1841 Thu Jan 27 12:22:25 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1843 * makedir() had multiple bugs dating back to MH. An octal
1844 constant was apparently being interpreted as decimal, resulting in
1845 directories with no user read or execute permissions, making
1846 nested directory creation fail. And there wasn't even an
1847 _attempt_ to set desired permissions (e.g. from "Folder-Protect:"
1848 in .mh_profile) on the outer directories of a nested directory.
1850 * A second `make install' would always fail because the check for
1851 whether mh_profile.5 existed was written incorrectly.
1853 Wed Jan 26 02:22:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1855 * Added documentation on both types of masquerading to post's man
1858 Tue Jan 25 22:58:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1860 * Doug's portability fix of my setgid inc autodetection had a
1861 caching bug -- if you re-ran configure, uip/Makefile would be
1862 corrupted, and installation would bomb out on OSes where inc needs
1865 * Implemented a new kind of email address masquerading. Usually,
1866 when a user writes a custom "From:" header in a draft, nmh uses it
1867 rather than generating one. However, the user's true address is
1868 used in the SMTP envelope "From:" and is revealed in the "Sender:"
1869 header. Now, when mmailid is set to non-zero, the envelope
1870 "From:" uses the address specified in the draft "From:" header,
1871 and there is no "Sender:" header. This is useful when sending on
1872 behalf of a remote POP3 account or when remote mail robots
1873 incorrectly use the envelope "From:" in preference to the body
1874 "From:". This processing has only been implemented for post, not
1875 for the undocumented spost (which was already missing some "From:"
1876 processing that post has).
1878 Mon Jan 24 22:26:06 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1880 * Got rid of the rest of the gcc -Wall warnings that I didn't have
1881 time for on 1999-07-15 (and, it would seem, some new ones people
1882 introduced since then). The primary ones were the warnings that
1883 default prototypes were being used for [v]snprintf() and
1884 str[n]casecmp(). As of right now, there are _no_ compilation
1885 warnings except on dtimep.c-lexed (at least under AIX 4.1.5 and
1888 Sun Jan 2 23:42:18 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1890 * Move mhtest from bindir to libdir.
1892 * Move sendfiles from libdir to bindir.
1894 * Updated sendfiles manpage to reflect this change.
1896 * Added documentation for -build and -file switches to repl and
1897 forw manpages (patch from Peter Maydell).
1899 * Fixed interaction between specifying -cc in profile and -group on
1902 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1904 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
1905 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
1906 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
1909 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1911 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
1912 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
1913 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
1914 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
1915 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
1916 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).
1918 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1920 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
1922 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1924 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
1925 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
1926 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
1927 caught again. This works for now.
1929 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
1931 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1933 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
1934 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
1936 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1938 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
1939 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
1941 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
1943 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
1945 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1947 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
1948 changes. Both need more cleanup.
1950 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1952 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
1953 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
1954 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
1955 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
1956 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
1959 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1961 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
1962 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
1963 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
1965 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
1966 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
1969 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1971 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
1972 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
1973 to a directory on another device with more free space.
1975 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1977 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
1978 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
1980 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1982 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
1985 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
1986 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
1988 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
1989 macros, regardless of platform.
1991 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
1992 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1994 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
1995 with x-conversions=gzip.
1997 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1999 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
2002 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
2003 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
2004 implicit definition of ioctl().
2006 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
2007 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
2008 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
2009 want to mess with them.
2011 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2013 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
2014 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
2016 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
2017 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
2019 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
2020 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
2021 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
2023 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
2024 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
2025 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
2027 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
2028 function initgroups.
2030 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
2033 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
2034 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
2037 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
2038 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
2041 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
2042 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
2046 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2048 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
2049 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
2050 preventing compilation on at least linux.
2052 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
2053 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
2055 Thu Sep 09 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2057 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
2059 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
2060 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
2061 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
2062 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
2064 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
2065 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
2067 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
2069 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
2071 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
2073 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
2074 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
2076 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
2078 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
2079 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
2081 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
2082 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
2083 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
2084 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
2086 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
2087 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
2089 Sat Jun 09 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2091 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
2092 substitute it for mktemp if available.
2094 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2096 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
2097 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
2100 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
2102 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
2104 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
2106 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
2107 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
2109 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
2110 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
2111 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
2113 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
2114 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
2115 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
2117 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
2118 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
2119 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
2121 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
2122 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
2125 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
2126 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
2128 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
2129 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
2131 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
2132 <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
2134 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
2135 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
2136 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
2138 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
2139 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
2141 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
2142 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
2143 <elleron@servtech.com>.
2145 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
2146 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
2149 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
2150 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
2152 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
2153 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
2154 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
2155 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
2157 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
2158 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
2160 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2164 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
2165 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
2166 would not be changed.
2168 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
2169 one from the Apache web server.
2171 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
2172 (this should have been done a long time ago).
2174 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
2175 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
2176 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
2178 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
2180 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
2182 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
2183 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
2186 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
2187 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
2188 removes a bad race condition.
2190 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
2193 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
2194 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
2195 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
2197 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
2198 sequence information.
2200 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
2201 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
2203 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
2206 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
2209 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
2211 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
2212 interpret 034 as octal.
2214 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
2216 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
2217 mhstore, and mhbuild.
2219 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
2220 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
2222 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
2223 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
2225 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
2226 in the c_cefile structure when building.
2228 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
2229 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
2231 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
2232 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
2233 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
2235 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
2236 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
2237 and mhshow. Updated man pages
2239 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
2241 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
2243 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
2244 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
2247 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
2249 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
2250 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
2252 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
2253 header field information.
2255 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
2256 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
2258 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
2259 values when parsing a content.
2261 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
2262 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
2264 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
2265 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
2267 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
2268 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
2270 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
2271 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
2273 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
2275 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
2277 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
2279 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
2281 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
2282 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
2285 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
2286 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
2288 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
2289 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
2290 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
2291 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
2292 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
2293 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
2296 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
2298 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
2299 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
2300 buffer length checks for this parameter.
2302 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
2303 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
2305 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
2307 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
2308 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
2309 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
2310 of the limits on the length of command lines.
2312 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
2313 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
2316 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
2317 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
2318 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
2319 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
2322 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2324 * Released nmh-0.27.
2326 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
2327 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
2329 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
2330 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
2331 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
2332 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
2335 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
2336 mhbuild returns an error.
2338 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
2339 rename the draft file.
2341 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
2342 use a global variable.
2344 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
2345 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
2347 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
2348 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
2350 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
2351 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
2352 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
2354 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
2355 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
2357 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
2358 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
2361 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
2362 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
2365 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
2366 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
2368 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
2369 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
2370 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
2372 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
2373 to new function output_content_folder.
2375 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
2376 new function output_content_file.
2378 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
2379 to new function parse_format_string.
2381 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
2382 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
2383 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
2384 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
2386 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
2387 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
2388 message/external file from ftp.
2390 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
2391 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
2392 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
2394 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
2395 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
2398 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
2401 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
2402 new file mhstoresbr.c
2404 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
2407 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
2408 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
2410 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
2411 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
2413 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
2414 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
2415 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
2417 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
2419 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
2421 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
2422 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
2425 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
2426 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
2428 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
2431 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
2433 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2435 * Released nmh-0.26.
2437 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
2438 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
2439 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
2440 is still the same (dashstuffing).
2442 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
2443 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
2444 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
2445 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
2446 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
2448 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
2449 But it is not on by default.
2451 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
2452 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
2454 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
2456 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
2458 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
2460 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
2462 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
2463 number of the "cur" message when packing.
2465 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2467 * Released nmh-0.25.
2469 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
2470 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
2471 uses the original name of the library.
2473 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
2474 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
2477 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
2478 list_content and list_debug.
2480 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
2482 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
2483 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.
2485 1998-02-27 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2487 * Released nmh-0.24.
2489 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
2491 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
2492 are given, that order doesn't matter.
2494 * Fix bug in seq_list.c when realloc'ing for
2495 large sequence line.
2497 1998-02-23 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2499 * Released nmh-0.23.
2501 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
2503 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
2504 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan
2505 content, decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary
2506 string). I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
2508 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
2509 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
2512 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
2514 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
2516 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
2518 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
2519 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
2521 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
2522 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.
2524 * Add note to MACHINES file that on Linux, configure
2525 doesn't find the functions sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
2527 * Fix configuration for machines that don't have (or find)
2528 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
2530 1998-02-11 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2532 * Released nmh-0.22.
2534 * Add a configure check for sigsetjmp. Add some conditional
2535 #define's in h/signals.h in case it's not found.
2537 * Added additional notes about -auto switch in mhn man page.
2539 * Added note about MM_CHARSET environment variable to
2540 mh-profile(5) man page.
2542 * Fix signal problem in mhn.c (change setjmp/longjmp to
2543 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp).
2545 1998-02-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2547 * Released nmh-0.22-pre1.
2549 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
2550 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
2552 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
2554 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
2555 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
2556 entry point for parsing MIME files.
2558 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
2559 source message on the standard input.
2561 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
2563 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
2564 rather than -rfc934mode.
2566 * Fix mhbuild, so that Content-Description and RFC-822 comments
2567 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
2570 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
2571 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).
2573 * Restore HP specific code to zotnet/tws/lexstring.c. Apparently
2576 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2578 * Released nmh-0.21.
2580 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
2581 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.
2583 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what transfer
2586 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what character set
2587 to use for text contents.
2589 * Removed old hpux specific code from zotnet/tws/lexstring.c
2591 1998-02-02 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2593 * Released nmh-0.21-pre2.
2595 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
2597 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
2598 header fields as per RFC-2047.
2600 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
2601 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
2602 spaces between encoded word are.
2604 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
2606 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
2607 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
2609 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
2610 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
2611 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
2613 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
2615 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
2616 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
2618 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.
2620 * Added support for %(decode) to fmtdump.c.
2622 * check_charset() now accepts US-ASCII as a subset of any
2623 ISO-8859-X character set.
2625 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
2628 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
2629 permissions, not write permissions.
2631 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
2632 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
2634 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
2637 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2639 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
2641 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
2642 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
2644 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
2645 message contains valid character set.
2647 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
2648 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
2650 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
2651 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
2653 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
2654 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
2655 between an encoded word and normal text.
2657 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
2658 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
2660 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
2661 as a RFC-2047 header field.
2663 * The command install-mh now recognizes the switches -version
2666 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
2667 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
2670 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
2671 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
2673 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
2674 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
2676 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
2678 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2680 * Released nmh-0.20.
2682 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
2684 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.
2686 * Changed the default format file for mhl (mhl.format) to
2687 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
2688 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
2690 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
2691 and the To: line was missing.
2693 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
2695 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2697 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
2699 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
2700 watch the POP transaction.
2702 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
2703 first, and use it if available.
2705 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
2706 first, and use it if available.
2708 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2710 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
2712 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
2713 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
2714 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
2717 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
2718 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
2719 returns the state FLDPLUS.
2721 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
2722 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
2725 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
2727 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
2728 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
2730 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
2732 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
2733 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
2735 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
2736 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
2737 message to which you are replying.
2739 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
2740 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
2741 making group replies.
2743 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
2745 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2747 * Released nmh-0.19.
2749 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
2750 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
2752 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
2753 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
2754 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
2755 to the end of the man page.
2757 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
2758 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
2759 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
2760 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
2761 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
2762 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
2764 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
2767 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
2768 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
2769 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
2771 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
2772 the next available number above the message number you wish
2775 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
2776 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
2778 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
2779 file sbr/seq_print.c
2781 * flist will now update the current folder.
2783 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
2784 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
2785 but now undocumented.
2787 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
2790 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
2791 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
2793 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
2795 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
2796 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
2798 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2800 * Released nmh-0.18.
2802 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
2803 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
2804 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
2806 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
2807 retains the public/private status of sequences.
2809 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
2810 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
2811 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
2812 previous public/private status.
2814 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
2817 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
2820 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
2821 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
2822 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
2824 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
2825 take option to determine whether it should get current
2826 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
2827 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
2829 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
2831 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
2832 wait for stopped processes.
2834 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
2835 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
2837 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2839 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
2841 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
2842 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
2844 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
2845 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
2847 * Change the way that memory for message status is
2848 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
2849 the folder/message structure. This required changing
2850 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
2852 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
2855 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
2858 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
2860 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
2861 the debugging output.
2863 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
2864 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
2866 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2868 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
2870 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
2871 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
2873 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
2875 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
2876 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
2877 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
2878 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
2879 in the given sequence.
2881 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
2882 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
2883 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
2884 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
2885 subdirectories of a given directory.
2887 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
2888 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
2889 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
2891 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
2892 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
2894 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
2896 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
2899 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
2900 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
2901 fields are now calculated at runtime.
2903 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
2904 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
2905 are calculated at runtime.
2907 Sun Nov 30 19:14:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2909 * Released nmh-0.18-pre2.
2911 * Add paragraph to man page for install-mh and to INSTALL file
2912 about checking for global mh.profile.
2914 * Renamed m_find() to context_find().
2915 Renamed m_replace() to context_replace().
2916 Renamed m_delete() to context_del().
2917 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
2918 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
2919 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
2921 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
2922 adding message to folder itself.
2924 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
2925 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
2926 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
2929 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
2930 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
2933 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
2934 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
2935 is the same as the direct smtp code).
2937 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
2938 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
2940 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
2941 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
2942 code to use it yet).
2944 Thu Nov 13 18:42:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2946 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.
2948 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never
2949 called with a value larger than 30 mintues.
2951 * Fixed race condition in rmm and refile, so that
2952 context is updated before external rmmproc is called.
2954 * Removed all the OVERHEAD code.
2956 * Move code to add message to folder from refile.c
2959 Fri Jul 25 19:39:29 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2961 * Did some rearranging of the internals of inc.c.
2963 * Make -inplace the default for anno, forw, dist, and repl.
2965 * Changed --enable-smtp to --with-mts={smtp,sendmail}
2967 * Created new directory mts/sendmail for direct sendmail
2968 interface (although it currently still uses SMTP).
2970 * Removed all the TMA (trusted mail agent) code
2972 * Removed all the TTYD (terminal access daemon) code
2974 * Removed all the MF (uucp filtering) code.
2976 * Removed all the code for BERK.
2978 * Removed all the code for stand-alone delivery (MHMTS).
2980 * Split the file mts/sendmail/smail.c into sendmail.c and
2981 smtp.c. Changed the name of the directory to mts/smtp.
2983 * Changed autoconf to use @sysconfdir@ for location of
2984 configuration files.
2986 * Changed #define in mhn.c from FTP to BUILTIN_FTP.
2988 Mon Jul 21 03:22:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2990 * Released nmh-0.17.
2992 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
2994 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
2995 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
2997 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
3000 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
3001 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
3003 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
3004 number of refiled message.
3006 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
3008 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
3009 for return value of wait().
3011 * Change configure to also check /bin for "more".
3013 Sat Jul 12 00:02:23 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3015 * Released nmh-0.16.
3017 Mon Jun 23 20:13:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3019 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
3021 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
3022 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
3023 deal with binary messages, yet).
3025 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
3027 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
3029 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
3030 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
3031 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
3032 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
3033 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
3034 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
3036 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
3037 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
3039 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
3040 From MH-6.8.4 patch.
3042 * Fix double free of ctinfo in user_content when using
3043 #forw with single message. From John MacMillan (and
3046 * Changed -mhnproc switch for show, to -showmimeproc.
3048 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".
3050 * Added "mime" option to "whatnow", which calls the program
3051 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
3054 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
3057 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
3059 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
3060 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
3061 which used unsigned chars by default.
3063 Sat Jun 21 01:21:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3065 * Released nmh-0.15.
3067 * Added new form "scan.unseen" to distribution. It marks messages
3068 which are in any sequence in Unseen-Sequence.
3070 * Do some rearranging of date/time code in zotnet/tws/dtime.c
3072 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
3074 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
3077 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
3078 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
3079 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
3081 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
3082 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
3084 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
3086 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
3087 they conflict with defines on AIX.
3089 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
3090 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
3091 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
3092 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
3094 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
3095 and put in own subroutine.
3097 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
3098 and put in own subroutine.
3100 * Moved code to remove messages from folder into own
3101 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and
3102 refile.c to use new routine.
3104 Fri May 16 06:09:31 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3106 * Renamed m_seqok to seq_nameok.
3108 * Changed m_setunseen, msh, mshcmds, flist, and scan to use
3111 * Changed m_seqflag to return the number of a sequence rather
3112 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
3113 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
3115 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
3118 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before
3119 adding message to sequence.
3121 * Renamed function m_setvis to m_setunseen, and renamed
3122 corresponding file in sbr.
3124 * Renamed function m_setseq to m_setprev, and renamed corresponding
3127 * Changed mark.c and pick.c to use m_seqaddsel and m_seqdelsel.
3129 * Added new function m_seqdelsel to m_seqdel.c, which deletes
3130 all selected messages from a sequence.
3132 * Added new function m_seqaddsel to m_seqadd.c, which adds all
3133 selected messages to a sequence.
3135 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,
3138 Thu May 15 00:53:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3140 * Renamed function pack_folder to m_packfolder, and moved it
3141 from uip/folder.c into its own file sbr/m_packfolder.c
3143 Wed May 14 23:38:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3145 * Changed function m_gmsg to m_readfolder. Renamed file
3146 sbr/m_gmsg.c to sbr/m_readfolder.c.
3148 Mon May 5 19:57:11 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3150 * Expanded rcvtty man page, and added small patch from
3151 MH-6.8.4 distribution.
3153 Fri May 2 15:24:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3155 * Released nmh-0.14.
3157 * Comment out configure test and code for tgetent to allocate its
3158 own termcap buffer when passed a NULL argument.
3160 Sat Apr 26 03:46:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3162 * Added new options `-checkmime', `-nocheckmime', and `-mhnproc'
3163 to show. Restructured code to handle options to various
3164 `procs' better. Deprecated `-noshowproc' option and NOMHNPROC
3165 environment variable.
3167 * Added new man page `mh-draft' which documents the
3168 draft folder facility in nmh.
3170 * Renamed fmtsbr.h to fmt_scan.h. Renamed fmtcompile.h
3173 * split fmtsbr.c into fmt_scan.c and fmt_new.c. Renamed
3174 fmtcompile.c to fmt_compile.c, and formataddr.c to
3177 * `send -help' wasn't showing the -(no)mime and -split
3180 Fri Apr 25 02:50:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3182 * Released nmh-0.13.
3184 * Changed mhpath so it doesn't abort if a message sequence
3185 such as "mhpath all" expands to more than 1000 messages.
3186 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
3187 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
3190 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
3191 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
3193 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3195 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if
3196 necessary. So `folders' can now handle more than 300 folders.
3198 Tue Apr 22 14:01:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3200 * Change configure to use a compile check to see if the tm struct
3201 has tm_gmtoff, rather than using egrep.
3203 Mon Apr 21 02:19:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3205 * Released nmh-0.12.
3207 * Had set_exists and unset_exists macros backwards.

3213 * Added documentation to mh-profile.man about the various
3214 `procs' (mhlproc, showproc, lproc, etc...).
3216 * Replace the bit twiddling for SELECTED, UNSEEN, and
3217 mp->attrstats with macros.
3219 * If system doesn't have SIGEMT (like Linux), then use SIGTERM
3222 * Change fstat to stat in m_gmsg.c since Linux wants
3225 * Merge Linux patch sent in by Michel Oosterhof (original
3226 patch from bsa@kf8nh.wariat.org).
3228 * Document an undocumented MH feature. mhn -form mhl.null
3229 will suppress the display of the message header.
3231 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
3233 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c
3234 and mshcmds.c, rather than hard coding in /bin/cat.
3236 * Add mhnproc to the list of `procs' in mh-profile.man.
3238 * Add configure test for lorder and tsort commands.
3240 * Commented out the padding in the `msgs` struct in h/mh.h
3242 * Change m_gmsg.c to allocate elements to the `info' array by
3243 500 elements at a time (rather than MAXFOLDERS / 5).
3245 * Add note to man page for mhmail that zero length messages are
3246 not sent. Need to use -body "" to send empty messages.
3248 * zotnet/mts/mts.c : compare character with '\0', not NULL.
3250 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
3252 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
3253 folder/message structure when done with folder.
3255 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is
3256 defined even if message is missing "From " line.
3258 Mon Mar 31 03:37:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3260 * Released nmh-0.10.
3262 Sun Mar 30 21:46:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3264 * Add configure check for <locale.h>. Turn on LOCALE support
3267 Thu Mar 20 03:21:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3269 * Reversed previous decision to retain "From " lines in slocal.
3270 The "From " line is now removed from all messages.
3272 * inc now saves the date from the "From " envelope in the
3273 Delivery-Date header for all messages.
3275 * sbr/m_getfld.c: Clean up processing of Return-Path and
3276 Delivery-Date from the "From " envelope.
3278 Mon Mar 17 19:03:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3280 * client.c: cast iaddr to int before comparing return value
3281 of inet_addr with NOTOK.
3283 Tue Mar 11 04:38:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3285 * Grep test for signal names was failing on some OS'es because
3286 of missing tabs in regex.
3288 Sat Mar 8 01:58:22 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3290 * Released nmh-0.09.
3292 * Move config files and format files to *.old before installing.
3294 * Add configure check for killpg.
3296 * msh.c: include <termios.h> instead of <termio.h> and
3299 * prompter.c: don't include <sys/ioctl.h> anymore.
3301 Thu Mar 6 04:03:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3303 * Added `-mime' and `-nomime' options to `repl'.
3306 Tue Mar 4 03:10:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3308 * ruserpass.c : removed conflicting prototypes.
3310 * rcvtty.c : Fixed rcvtty to obey terminal permissions granted
3311 by `mesg' command. Previously only worked on BSD machines.
3313 Mon Mar 3 00:18:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3315 * rcvtty.c : Changed to use #define UTMP_FILE (if exists) rather
3316 than hard coded "/etc/utmp".
3318 * Released nmh-0.08.
3320 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
3321 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of
3322 locking database itself.
3324 Thu Feb 27 05:28:09 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3326 * Added slocal action `mmdf' to deliver to a file in mmdf format.
3328 * Changed the slocal actions `file' and `>' to always deliver in
3329 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
3332 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
3333 rather than mmdf format.
3335 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
3336 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
3337 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
3338 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
3340 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
3342 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3344 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
3347 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
3348 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
3349 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
3351 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
3352 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
3353 rcvpack so you can choose the preferred format.
3355 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3357 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
3358 can still easily change this in config.h).
3360 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
3361 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
3362 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
3364 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3366 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather
3367 than tzset and external timezone variable.
3369 Thu Feb 13 00:35:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3371 * Fixed typo in ruserpass.c in the variable toktabs.
3373 * When ruserpass was added to LIBOBJS, it was missing
3376 * Released nmh-0.07.
3378 Tue Feb 11 01:29:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3380 * Add check to configure, so that if ruserpass, or _ruserpass
3381 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
3383 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
3384 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
3387 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
3388 built-in FTP client in mhn.
3390 * Added configure check for ushort and ulong. Change code
3391 to use ushort/ulong rather than u_short/u_long.
3393 * A couple of small cleanups in locking code.
3395 * Added configure check for gmtoff element in struct tm.
3397 * Added configure check for tzset.
3399 Fri Feb 7 03:01:57 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3401 * Released nmh-0.06.
3403 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
3404 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
3406 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
3407 many such machines around anymore.
3409 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
3410 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
3412 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
3413 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
3415 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3417 * Check lex generated file in zotnet/tws and use
3418 pre-generated version if necessary.
3420 * Released nmh-0.05.
3422 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
3423 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
3424 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
3425 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
3427 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
3428 be linked in one pass.
3430 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3432 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
3433 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
3435 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3437 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
3439 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3441 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
3442 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
3443 become the current folder.
3445 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3447 * Released nmh-0.04.
3449 * Define ospeed and PC in termsbr.c is OS doesn't have
3452 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3454 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
3455 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
3456 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
3458 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3460 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
3461 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
3463 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3465 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
3466 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
3469 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
3470 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
3472 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3474 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
3475 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
3476 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
3477 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
3478 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
3479 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
3481 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3483 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
3484 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
3486 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
3487 a file (currently need to specify full path).
3489 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3491 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
3492 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
3494 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3496 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
3497 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
3498 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
3500 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3502 * Released nmh-0.03.
3504 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
3505 .mh_sequence file existed.
3507 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
3508 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
3510 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
3511 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
3514 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3516 * Changed flist option -unseen to -[no]all. Cleaned up
3519 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3521 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
3522 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
3523 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
3525 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3527 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
3528 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
3529 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
3531 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3533 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL
3534 and allocate its own buffer. Borrowed from zsh.
3536 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
3538 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3540 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
3541 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
3542 directory from where the source code is located.
3544 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3546 * Released nmh-0.02.
3548 Wed Jan 1 17:41:52 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3550 * Split mhook man page into man pages for rcvdist, rcvpack,
3553 Tue Dec 31 03:07:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3555 * Changed code to use strerror, rather than using sys_errlist
3556 and sys_nerr directly.
3558 Mon Dec 30 02:15:25 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3560 * -compat switch from install-mh removed.
3562 * Changed the default POP port from "pop" to "pop3".
3564 Sat Dec 28 13:25:05 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3566 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
3567 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
3568 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
3569 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
3570 rather than in script.
3572 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3574 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
3576 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with
3577 macro defined on Solaris.
3579 Thu Dec 26 02:50:15 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3581 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
3582 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
3584 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
3585 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
3586 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
3587 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
3590 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3592 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
3593 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.
3595 * Fixed configure test so that termcap variable ospeed is
3598 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3600 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
3602 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included
3603 in mhn.c. Changed md5 to use memset and memcpy.
3605 Fri Dec 20 02:29:37 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3607 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
3608 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
3610 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3612 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
3613 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
3614 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
3615 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
3616 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
3617 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
3619 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3621 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
3623 * Released nmh-0.01.
3625 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
3626 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
3627 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
3630 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3632 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
3635 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3637 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
3638 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
3640 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3642 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
3643 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
3644 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
3645 script to find_program.
3647 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3649 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
3650 speed up -recurse option.
3652 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
3653 yet, but it compiles :-)
3655 * Changed default location for install to
3656 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
3657 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
3658 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
3661 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
3662 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
3663 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
