1 2008-08-14 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
3 * test/setup-test: Don't run autogen.sh unless needed. Build in a
4 blddir under the temporary directory so as not to interfere with
5 whatever the developer may be doing in the source directory.
6 If the temporary directory already exists, rebuild and install it.
8 2008-08-13 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
10 * sbr/ambigsw.c: Send print_sw output to stderr. This avoids
11 strange problems with scan `pick -bogus`, not to mention being
14 * sbr/getans.c, sbr/print_help.c, uip/msh.c: Send print_sw output
17 * h/prototypes.h, sbr/print_sw.c (print_sw): Add FILE * argument
18 and send output there rather than to stdout.
20 * test/tests/pick/test-stderr: Add test that error messages don't
21 end up going to stdout.
23 2008-08-13 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
25 * uip/pick.c: Print matching messages immediately, instead of
26 waiting until the very end to print anything.
27 Ensure valid sequence name as soon as we parse it from command,
28 instead of searching the messages first.
30 2008-08-13 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
32 * uip/Makefile.in, uip/popi.c: Remove popi.c, which has been dead
33 since PatchSet 257 (2000/06/12 11:07:34 UTC).
35 2008-08-13 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
37 * h/mhparse.h: Move interfaces also used by mhbuildsbr.c here
40 * uip/Makefile.in (mhbuild): Build with mhparse.o.
42 * uip/mhbuildsbr.c: Drop the duplication of mhparse.c.
44 * uip/mhbuild.c, uip/mhlist.c, uip/mhn.c, uip/mhshow.c,
45 uip/mhstore.c, uip/mhtest.c: Drop check swdeclaration, which is
48 * uip/mhparse.c: Move some declarations to mhparse.h, and remove
49 'static' from the definitions here.
50 (get_ctinfo): Take magic mhbuild support from mhbuildsbr.c's copy,
52 (incl_name_value, extract_name_value): Move from mhbuildsbr.c to
53 support get_ctinfo change).
54 (get_content, open7Bit): Add Content-Disposition support, added to
55 mhbuildsbr.c's copy in mhbuildsbr.c r1.12 (PatchSet 549).
56 (InitText): Default to CHARSET_UNSPECIFIED instead of "US-ASCII",
57 as mhbuildsbr.c's copy did. Explain termproc.
58 (openBase64, openQuoted, open7Bit): Fix comment from r1.5:
59 suffixes, not prefixes.
60 (openMail): Explain showproc.
62 * test/tests/mhshow/test-cte-binary: Add test for
63 Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary (Debian #136976).
65 * test/tests/mhbuild/test-forw: Add an mhbuild test, testing forw
66 with and without RFC-934 mode. More mhbuild tests would be nice.
68 2008-08-13 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
70 * test/tests/bad-input/test-header: Add test for it.
72 * sbr/m_getfld.c: If we reach the end of the line without finding
73 a ':' when parsing a header field, treat that line as the
74 beginning of the body rather than blowing up. These messages are
75 usually spam, but it's nice to be able to at least scan them.
77 2008-08-12 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
79 * test/tests/mhshow/test-qp: Test various valid and invalid
82 * uip/mhparse.c (openQuoted): Simplify the decode-or-show for loop by
83 peeking ahead to the next byte(s) when encountering '=', and just let
84 invalid escape sequences through as literals (fixes bug #15245).
86 2008-08-12 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
88 * autogen.sh (new file): add script for running the GNU
89 autotools in the right order
90 * INSTALL: mention that you need to run autogen.sh if you
92 * docs/README.developers: mention autogen.sh rather than
93 suggesting running autoheader and autoconf by hand.
94 * test/setup-test: run autotools via autogen.sh
96 2008-08-08 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
98 * sbr/discard.c, sbr/m_getfld.c, uip/scansbr.c: Add support for
99 DragonFlyBSD stdio (from NetBSD pkgsrc).
101 2008-08-05 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
103 * uip/folder.c: chdir(nmhdir) in main rather than in dodir, which
104 is called many times. Drop the chdir in get_folder_info, which
105 served no purpose at all. If struct stat has d_type (BSD), use
106 that to skip processing (strcmp, stat, and so on) of message
107 files, mostly undoing the slow-down from the last change.
109 * configure.in: Call CHECK_TYPE_STRUCT_DIRENT_D_TYPE.
111 * aclocal.m4: Add CHECK_TYPE_STRUCT_DIRENT_D_TYPE from
114 2008-08-04 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
116 * uip/folder.c: Simplify dodir/addir/addfold. Dump hacky
117 over-optimization in addir that tried to avoid readdir after all
118 child directories had been read; this was also trying to support
119 symlinks to directories, but would have been failing (because
120 nlink may have gone to 0 with symlinks to directories remaining)
121 had the lstat usage been correct (lstat doesn't fail for normal
122 directories; should have used S_ISLNK).
124 2008-08-03 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
126 * test/setup-test: use 'set -e' so we stop on compile failure.
127 Configure --enable-debug for convenience in debugging.
129 * uip/whatnowsbr.c: bug #23319: rework the way we handle the working
130 directory when invoking the user's shell, so that we don't have
131 issues when the cwd contains a space or shell special character.
132 * test/tests/whatnow/test-attach-detach, test/tests/whatnow/test-cd,
133 test/tests/whatnow/test-ls: test cases for this.
135 * sbr/fmt_compile.c: add 'do { ... } while (0)' wrappers
136 to various multi-statement macros to avoid nasty surprises
137 if the macros are used in if() clauses.
139 * bug #23436: man/scan.man, man/forw.man, man/inc.man,
140 man/mh-chart.man, man/mhmail.man, man/mhshow.man,
141 man/mhstore.man, man/msgchk.man, man/packf.man, man/scan.man:
142 fix minor syntax errors groff warns about.
143 * test/runtest, test/README: allow test cases to report
144 that they have been SKIPped as well as PASS/FAIL
145 * test/tests/manpages/test-manpages - new test which runs groff
146 on the manpages and checks that there are no warnings.
147 * test/runalltests: ignore editor backup files
149 2008-08-03 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
151 * etc/replcomps, etc/replgroupcomps: Trim trailing whitespace from
154 2008-08-03 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
156 * sbr/fmt_compile.c: when doing an if-test on the result
157 of a function which returns a string result, check whether
158 the string is non-empty (as the documentation says we do).
159 Previously we were always testing the integer 'value'. Bug
160 spotted by Eric Gillespie.
161 * test/tests/repl/test-if-str: test case for this bug
163 2008-07-24 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
165 * test/setup-test: Run 'make clean' before building
167 2008-07-24 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
169 * test/runtest: cat test-temp-dir only once. Destroy and create
170 test Mail hierarchy here, so each test has its own independent
173 * test/setup-test: Drop needless pushd/popd, which don't exist in
174 sh anyway. Don't use aclocal, which is part of automake.
175 Don't create Mail hierarchy here (see test/runtest).
177 * test/tests/folder/test-create, tests/folder/test-total: Drop
180 * tests/pick/test-pick: Remove failing no-op test.
182 * test/tests/scan/test-scan: Write expected and actual output to
183 files and diff them. This way, if the output differs, diff
184 provides the FAILing exit code and shows the differences.
186 2008-06-12 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
187 * man/repl.man, etc/mhl.reply:
188 Add an attribution line when replying to messages.
190 2008-06-02 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
192 * h/mh.h, h/prototypes.h, sbr/done.c, uip/inc.c,
193 uip/mhbuild.c, uip/mhlist.c, uip/mhn.c, uip/mhshow.c,
194 uip/mhstore.c, uip/mhtest.c, uip/packf.c, uip/pick.c,
195 uip/rcvdist.c, uip/rcvstore.c, uip/sendsbr.c: when
196 building on gcc, use the noreturn attribute on various
197 functions (should improve code and avoid some spurious
198 'uninitialized variable' warnings).
200 2008-06-01 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
202 * docs/README.developers: update the bits about doing a
203 release announcement, now I've actually done one.
205 2008-05-22 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
207 * uip/scansbr.c: don't use MB_CUR_MAX if we aren't compiled
208 with multibyte support.
210 * uip/whatnowsbr.c: factor out common code for writing ls
211 shell command, and make it do more sensible buffer length
212 checks. Also avoid relying on the return value of sprintf(),
213 as some old systems don't return number of characters written.
215 2008-05-21 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
217 * sbr/utils.c (mh_xrealloc): don't assume realloc() can
218 handle NULL pointers; some non-POSIX realloc()s can't.
220 * sbr/dtimep.lex: add some table size declarations for the
221 benefit of elderly lexes with small defaults.
223 2008-05-18 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
225 * sbr/addrsbr.c: removed "err" from conditional, because gcc
226 correctly warned that it would always evaluate as true. It's
227 the address of a static array.
229 2008-05-16 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
231 * sbr/Makefile.in, config/Makefile.in: Don't use $< in target rules
232 in makefiles, as POSIX says it's only defined in inference rules.
234 2008-05-13 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
236 * configure.in, INSTALL: if --enable-masquerade is not
237 specified to configure, enable all supported masquerade forms.
238 This allows users to masquerade with the default
239 configuration. That seems to be more worthwhile now than
240 trying to prevent users from using it, especially with
241 single-user installations or those where a user can edit
244 2008-05-04 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
246 * bug #23167: sbr/ruserpass.c (ruserpass): make bad permissions
247 on .netrc be an instantly fatal error. Previously we returned
248 an error value; however, no caller was checking it. So now
249 ruserpass() has a void return type.
251 * bug #23163: various minor fixes for the benefit of
252 older Unixes (specifically SunOS 4):
253 reintroduce strerror() substitute implementation
254 provide memmove() substitute implementation
256 * bug #23163: fix accidentally broken 'build outside
257 source directory' feature
259 * bug #23162: sbr/dtime.c: fix stray HAVE_TM_GMTOFF that
260 wasn't updated to the new macro name.
262 2008-04-30 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
264 * mts/smtp/smtp.c: provide a callback for SASL_CB_AUTHNAME
265 (fixes issue with SASL sending the wrong username in some
266 circumstances). Thanks to <der_wachtmeister@freenet.de>
269 2008-04-29 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
271 * Revert previous attempt at fix for SASL issue as it
272 is the wrong approach.
274 * Fix in correct manner, by making sm_rrecord() and thus
275 sm_hear() set the length of the reply string correctly
276 (the SASL libraries now care if you pass in the wrong
279 * Correct various places in smtp.c where the reply string
280 might not have been correctly NUL-terminated. Includes a
281 fix for a particularly nasty and long standing screwup
282 where the buffer length counting in smhear() was totally
283 broken for continued lines from the server.
285 2008-04-29 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
287 * Cope with sasl_decode64() returning SASL_CONTINUE, as
288 happens with newer sasl libraries and LOGIN auth.
290 2008-04-27 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
292 * Updated some of the 'how to do a release' documentation.
294 * Upped the VERSION string to '1.3-dev', since 1.3-RC1 has
297 2008-04-27 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
299 * Released nmh-1.3 RC1.
301 2008-04-11 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
303 * acconfig.h, configure.in, sbr/dtime.c, sbr/pidwait.c,
304 uip/mhshowsbr.c, uip/rcvtty.c, uip/slocal.c, uip/termsbr.c:
305 move most remaining macros out of acconfig.h which is an
306 obsolete feature of autoconf
308 2008-04-05 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
310 * bug #18655: fix use of admonish() for a fatal error (should
311 be adios(); only actual effect would be wrong exit code).
312 Thanks to Craig Leres for spotting this.
314 2008-04-05 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
316 * bug #20028 (Debian bug 399271): fix code assuming that pointer
317 differences were 32 bits -- thanks to Dean Gaudet for the patch.
319 2008-01-25 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
321 * uip/mhshowsbr.c (show_all_messages): Be more generous when parsing
324 2007-11-04 Joel Reicher <joel@panacea.null.org>
326 * Changed done() link overriding to function pointer. Return type
327 is now void so that exit() can be used as done() callback. Dead
328 code return from all done()s removed, with return 1 in main()
329 following done() (should never be reached).
331 2007-08-21 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
333 * Red Hat Bug #253342: inc.c, utils.c, utils.h: When inc is run with
334 the -silent flag, don't exit(1) for no apparent reason.
336 2007-03-12 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
338 * bug #18630, #18631, #18632, #18634: various patches from
339 Craig Leres fixing error message argument problems.
341 2007-03-12 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
343 * bug #15212: configure.in, acconfig.h: remove configure test for
344 broken AT&T vi. This test was broken (it was always returning
345 failure even for non-broken vi implementations) and
346 unfixable. Nobody should be using AT&T vi any more so I have
347 simply moved it back to being a setting you can put manually into
348 acconfig.h if you must.
350 2006-10-24 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
352 * uip/sendsbr.c: with attachformat values of 1 or 2, add
353 name= portion to Content-Type header. This makes them
354 consistent with attachformat value 0. And it allows mhstore
355 to use that (file)name when extracting attachments.
357 2006-08-26 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
359 * configure.in: If we're not using dotlocking, there is no need to set
362 2006-03-30 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
364 * uip/sendsbr.c: with attachformat values of 1 or 2, only
365 generate Content-Disposition headers for MIME attachments, not
366 for the message contents themselves. Microsoft Outlook Build
367 10.0.6626, at least, doesn't show the message contents if they
368 have Content-Disposition.
370 2006-03-09 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
372 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c (decode_rfc2047): Don't close the iconv descriptor
375 2006-03-08 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
377 * (mh_strcasecmp): Rename the private strcasecmp function to
378 mh_strcasecmp. This keeps the newer gnu linker happy.
380 2006-03-05 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
382 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c: don't try to malloc 0 bytes if an RFC2047
383 encoded block is empty
385 2006-03-04 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
387 * etc/Makefile.in: use INSTALL_SCRIPT to install scripts;
388 this allows INSTALL_PROGRAM to be set to 'install -s' so
389 binaries are stripped on installation. Apparently the BSDs
392 2006-02-25 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
394 * uip/sendsbr.c: replaced st_mtim with st_mtime, that's what
395 it should have been. Added #include of h/tws.h to pick up
398 2006-02-20 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
400 * h/mh.h, h/prototypes.h, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, uip/send.c,
401 uip/sendsbr.c, uip/viamail.c, uip/whatnowsbr.c, man/send.man:
402 added -attachformat switch to send, to support alternate MIME
403 header contents when using -attach. See send man page for
406 * man/mhbuild.man: wrapped one appearance of "Content-Disposition"
407 with quotes, to be consistent with others.
409 2006-02-20 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
411 * h/utils.h, sbr/utils.c, uip/flist.c, uip/folder.c: Move duplicate
412 function num_digits into utils.c
414 2006-02-19 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
416 * sbr/m_draft.c, sbr/utils.c, uip/folder.c, uip/inc.c,
417 uip/mhstoresbr.c, uip/popi.c, uip/refile.c: Add create_folder()
418 function, replacing duplicate code during folder creation.
420 2006-02-18 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
422 * h/mime.h, h/mhparse.h, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, uip/mhfree.c,
423 man/mhbuild.man, docs/TODO: added support for an optional
424 Content-Disposition header in mhbuild (only). Its contents
425 are supplied between {}, positioned after the optional [], in
426 a mhbuild directive. If the contents do not contain a
427 "filename=" parameter, and the directive has a filename, or
428 something else that ends with "name=", then that will be used
429 to add a "filename=" parameter to the header.
431 2006-02-12 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
433 * docs/TODO: added RFC2183 to reference of RFC1806 for
434 Content-Disposition header.
436 2006-01-31 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
438 * uip/mhbuild.c, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, man/mhbuild.man: added
439 -nocontentid switch, to disable generation of Content-ID:
440 header in MIME messages. (Also added -contentid for
441 symmetry.) The default configuration of Microsoft Outlook,
442 Build 10.0.3416 in particular, doesn't see attachments in
443 incoming messages if there are Content-ID headers, see
444 http://home.cwru.edu/~wrv/eudoraoutlookfix.html. This allows
445 users to easily accomodate that by adding
446 mhbuild: -nocontentid to their .mh_profile.
448 2006-01-29 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
450 * bug 4360: uip/replsbr.c: remove trailing newlines from components
451 to fix bug with spaces at the end of Subject/References in replies
453 2006-01-18 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
455 * configure.in: use AS_HELP_STRING for formatting help messages
457 * configure.in, sbr/fmt_scan.c: add autoconf magic to support
458 old systems that don't support multibyte character sets
460 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: fix bug with insertion of newline being wrong if
461 the num function was used at the end of the format buffer
463 2006-01-17 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
465 * uip/post.c, uip/spost.c: in make_bcc_file (), use same
466 logic as in finish_headers () to detect whether there is an
467 existing From: line in the draft. If draft_from masquerade
468 flag is enabled, this allows the From: to be obeyed in the
469 Bcc, instead of the old behavior of always replacing it with
472 2006-01-17 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
474 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: more robust multi-byte/column support for field
475 widths, restoring right justification feature
477 2006-01-16 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
479 * h/aliasbr.h, h/rcvmail.h, man/Makefile.in, man/slocal.man,
480 sbr/lock_file.c, uip/aliasbr.c, uip/dropsbr.c, uip/post.c,
481 uip/slocal.c, man/mh-mts.man: remove remnants of code for MMDF
483 * uip/scansbr.c: multiply buffer size by MB_CUR_MAX so multi-byte
486 2006-01-14 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
488 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: Turn the PUTSF macro into a function capable of
489 handling multi column characters.
491 2006-01-07 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
493 * Remove sbr/strerror.c -- strerror(3) is defined in C89.
495 2006-01-06 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
497 * patch #3968: Move the add() function from its own file (add.c) and
498 into utils.c. There was also a duplicate add() function in mf.c which
501 2006-01-02 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
503 * Remove sbr/pwd.c file, moving the pwd() function into sbr/utils.c.
505 2006-01-01 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
507 * patch #3967: Create a mh_xrealloc function to prevent mistakes when
510 2006-01-01 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
512 * patch #3966: Create a mh_xmalloc function to prevent mistakes when
515 2005-12-24 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
517 * Bug #15285: Don't use $< in target rules in makefiles, as POSIX
518 says it's only defined in inference rules. (BSD make was expanding
519 $< to the empty string in the rule for building sbr/dtimep.c, which
520 causes lex to apparently hang because it's reading from stdin.)
522 2005-12-24 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
524 * Completely redo db library checking -- we now check for working
525 (include file, library) pairs rather than checking for headers and
526 libraries separately. We also now provide --with-ndbm=lib and
527 --with-ndbmheader=header options to configure to handle situations
528 where configure's autodetection fails.
530 2005-12-21 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
532 * Fix stupid accidental dependence on a bash quirk in previous
533 configure script change.
535 2005-12-15 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
537 * Improve checking for Berkeley db libraries: configure should now
538 find a suitable library on systems with new gdbm where
539 compatibility functions are in the gdbm_compat library, and on
542 2005-12-13 Michael Forrest <mef@computer.org>
544 * Fedora Bug #163760: sbr/context_read.c (context_read): Ensure that
545 the context is only read once.
547 2005-12-12 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
549 * uip/sendsbr.c (annoaux): Fix the call to annotate() fixing a bug
550 which prevented repl from properly annotating messages.
552 2005-12-07 Jon Steinhart <nmh@fourwinds.com>
554 * Fixed a bug where anno -append put the headers in the wrong place
555 if applied to a message that didn't contain any headers.
557 * Added a special value of "all" to the -number option that causes
558 anno -delete to delete all matching components instead of just
561 * Added new -preserve and -nopreserve options. Using -preserve
562 retains the original last accessed and last modified times on
565 2005-12-05 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
567 * Fedora Bug #174983: configure.in: Fix the AC_PATH_PROG default when
568 vi isn't found during build.
570 2005-11-19 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
572 * bug #14977: sbr/context_read.c: special case an MHCONTEXT of
573 "/dev/null" and don't try to lock it.
575 * bug #9228, debian bug #146449: man/mh-profile.man: make it clearer
576 that lower case environment variables (and in particular mheditor)
577 are internal to nmh and not intended to be set by the user.
579 2005-11-09 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
581 * sbr/mf.c: fix buffer overrun with absurdly long addresses
582 (only causes crashes if scan is run with '-width 16536' or similar)
584 * bug #7917: sbr/context_foil.c, sbr/context_read.c,
585 sbr/context_save.c: mark 'no context' with NULL rather than
586 "/dev/null" so we don't inadvertently try to lock /dev/null (which
587 takes up to a minute in some locking configurations and makes post
590 * patch #3913: uip/post.c: pass some globals into sm_init() so that
591 it uses SASL if necessary. (This bug was preventing Bcc'd emails
592 from being sent via SASL authenticated SMTP.)
594 * bug #9813: uip/rmf.c: don't crash if there's no Current-Folder
595 entry in the context file.
597 2005-11-13 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
599 * bug #7833: uip/Makefile.in: remove link to install-mh that caused
600 problems on some systems
602 * bug #739: Makefile.in: install target now depends on all to avoid
603 problem on case-insensitive file systems with the INSTALL file
605 2005-11-10 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
607 * Fedora Bug #172838: configure.in: Fix the AC_PATH_PROG default when
608 sendmail isn't found during build.
610 2005-11-09 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
612 * h/aliasbr.h: fix a non-ANSI prototype.
614 2005-11-08 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
616 * Simon Burge: acconfig.h, configure.in, uip/rcvtty.c, uip/slocal.c:
617 fix to handle getutent() on NetBSD
619 * INSTALL, README, docs/README.about, man/nmh.man: update most
620 references to the web page and mailing list locations
622 * bug #10230: etc/Makefile.in, man/Makefile.in, uip/Makefile.in:
623 Michael De La Rue: prepend DESTDIR to install locations
625 * configure.in, */Makefile.in, mts/smtp/smtp.c: replace obsolete
628 2005-11-06 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
630 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, sbr/fmt_scan.c, h/prototypes.h: fix various
631 possible overruns of the buffers in fmt_scan() which would cause
632 crashes if scan was run with '-width 16536' or similar.
634 * uip/popsbr.c: fix compile error which only showed up if nmh
635 was configured with --enable-apop.
637 * Debian Bug# 245932, RedHat Bug# 172388: uip/mhparse.c: don't
638 crash when handling a multipart MIME message with an invalid
639 Content-Type header (file handle was being fclose()d twice).
641 * sbr/Makefile.in: adjust lex command to work on both old and
642 new versions of flex.
644 * configure.in: add an AC_PREREQ() so autoconf 2.13 gives a helpful
645 error message and the Debian autoconf-version-guessing wrapper
646 doesn't guess wrongly.
648 2005-11-02 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
650 * Debian Bug# 320069: Nick Rusnov: uip/popsbr.c: fail when
651 kpop connection attempted without KPOP support compiled in
653 * Debian Bug# 320090: Nick Rusnov: sbr/Makefile.in: fix for newer
654 version of flex and remove autogenerated file from cvs
656 * patch #1155: uip/flist.c: speed up flist by skipping stat on
657 files with numbers as names
659 * docs/Makefile.in: include new files in distribution
661 2005-10-11 Bill Wohler <wohler@newt.com>
663 * docs/FAQ: fold questions into MH FAQ and distribute that instead
665 2005-10-05 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
667 * Harald Geyer: h/mh.h, uip/replsbr.c: back out previous change
668 (fork/vfork) and replace with code that handles the issue directly
670 2005-05-18 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
672 * Debian Bug# 143485: Nick Rusnov: h/mh.h: use fork instead of
675 * Debian Bug# 261592: Harald Geyer: uip/mhlsbr.c, uip/replsbr.c:
676 test/report error writing to stdout
678 * mts/smtp/smtp.c, uip/popsbr.c: correct SASL include file locations
680 * docs/COMPLETION-BASH: bash completion definitions from Debian
682 * patch #2863: savannah@brisammon.fastmail.fm: sbr/folder_read.c:
683 fix a bug affecting AFS where nmh was setting the READONLY flag
684 for a folder even when you do have write access to the folder
686 * Carl Mummert: h/fmt_compile.h, man/mh-format.man,
687 sbr/fmt_compile.c, sbr/fmt_scan.c: add unquote() function for
688 removing quotes from RFC-2822 encoded headers
690 2005-02-23 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
692 * use iconv to convert RFC-2047 encoded headers to the
693 character set used by the current locale
695 * sbr/folder_read.c fix Debian bug #202667: crash when a
696 message's filename overflows an int when converted
698 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
699 versions (from automake 1.9.5)
701 2005-02-21 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
703 * sbr/getpass.c fix bug where inc crashed on failing to reopen
706 2005-01-27 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
708 * Added -proxy option to inc and msgchk. Based on old patch
709 from Michael Richardson.
711 * On systems where it is available, use nl_langinfo to get the
712 character set if MM_CHARSET is unset
714 2005-01-21 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
716 * sbr/check_charset.c US-ASCII is a subset of UTF-8 so can be
717 handled directly when UTF-8 is being used
719 2004-12-17 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
721 * uip/mhmisc.c Fix -part option to mhshow/mhlist/mhstore to
722 find sub-parts of the specified part
724 2004-11-19 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
726 * h/prototypes.h, sbr/folder_addmsg.c, uip/mhstoresbr.c,
727 uip/rcvstore.c, uip/refile.c: Added mail directory argument to
728 folder_addmsg in order to make it possible to provide a path to
729 the ext_hook call that is mailpath-based. A problem existed when
730 a folder was a symbolic link and the pwd call would return the
731 path relative to the filesystem, not to mailpath. A new argument
732 was needed because there was otherwise no reasonable way to get
735 2004-11-16 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
737 * sbr/folder_pack.c: Fixed problem where the refile hook was being
738 called after a message was renamed so that it wasn't around for
739 the hook. The hook is now called before the message file is
742 * sbr/folder_addmsg.c: Fixed wrong directory for hook when
743 refiling with -src option.
745 2004-10-15 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
747 * uip/sortm.c: Fixed calling of external hooks.
749 2004-10-12 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
751 * uip/inc.c: Fixed another weird bug caused by the static
752 mailpath being overwritten.
754 * uip/sendsbr.c: Fixed bug that caused anno to mangle headers.
756 * sbr/lock_file.c: Fixed strange bug that prevented a lock from
757 ever being obtained if getting it failed the first time. The
758 problem was that the string of XXXXXX that is required by
759 mkstemp() was overwritten the first time through, and so all
760 subsequent times failed because mkstemp() failed. The fix
761 reinitializes the tmp file string.
763 * uip/inc.c: Fixed bug in which the static maildir was overwritted
764 if a format string was read from the profile.
766 * sbr/folder_delmsgs.c: Fixed bug that was producing an incorrect
767 path for the external hook.
769 2003-10-06 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
771 * uip/slocal.c, configure.in: db configuration fix for Debian; yet
772 another location for ndbm.
774 2003-09-30 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
776 * Fix 'pick' so handling of options "-list" and "-seq" are
778 * Fix 'inc' realloc error when bringing in more than 100 msgs
780 * Patches submitted by Nick Rusnov from Debian archive applied:
783 136976 - Handle binary content messages
784 143427 - mh-format.man typo
785 144098 - 'spost; should have same behavior as 'post'
786 w.r.t. mts.conf masquerade line
787 149745 - slocal ignores 'N' result of previous command
788 152728 - increase SMTP timeouts to conform to RFC 1123
789 The timeouts suggested by the RFC seem long
790 to me - but the RFC is still listed as active.
791 181867 - typo for nmh.man
793 2003-08-10 Jeffrey C Honig <jch@honig.net>
795 * Fix problem where parsing of address/date fields in fmt_compile
796 is optimized to the first instance. The first instance may be in
797 contitional code which will result in cached data to
798 be used. Instead, convert c_flags to a flags field from a boolean
799 and parse on the first use.
800 * Remove some unused flag bits.
802 Fri Jul 01 22:02:00 2003 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
804 * Applied fixes for configuration problems with Solaris and
805 systems with gdbm instead of db1 (includes bug #2024)
807 #578 - repl leaks umask
808 #1393 - sortm core dumps
809 #1650 - msh leaks file descriptors
810 #1730 - Double free() in mhfree.c:free_encoding()
811 #3356 - In-Reply-To header in default replcomps should be
813 * Revised man page for mh-format (bug #2031)
814 * New replcomps, etc, with Fcc: +outbox in default versions
816 Sat Mar 17 03:18:15 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
818 * Ken Hornstein's configure.in Cyrus SASL checks were doing
819 `x"$with_cyrus_sasl" != "no"' instead of `... != x"no"'.
821 Tue Mar 06 21:04:27 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
823 * Found some historical information about MH in RFC 808.
824 Supplemented it with info from Jerry Peek's MH book and added it
825 to docs/README.about.
827 Tue Feb 6 20:35:40 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
829 * sbr/dtime.c Use the same Y2K correction code as dtimep.lex
831 * sbr/dtimep.lex Restrict the parser to accept either
832 a numerical timezone offset, or a symbolic one (e.g. EST),
833 but not both (Since "2000 -400 EDT" might cause a double
834 subtraction of 60 minutes if both are parsed. One should be
837 Mon Feb 05 20:22:54 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
839 * -L isn't sufficient for specifying the path of the Cyrus SASL
840 shared library. That'll allow us to link successfully, but on
841 many/most OSes that won't allow us to find libsasl at runtime. On
842 Solaris, we need to specify the library path with -R as well (or
843 else the user will have to use the $LD_LIBRARY_PATH kludge, which
844 is considered harmful). This fix should be extended to other OSes
847 * Print whether we have SASL support in the "nmh configuration"
848 summary configure prints out.
850 * Say in README.developers to use `\date' in case anyone is like
851 me and has `date' aliased in their shell to use a nonstandard (but
852 subjectively more readable) format.
854 Thu Jan 25 21:15:52 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
856 * man/mh-chart.man has updated synposes of
859 Tue Jan 23 20:26:15 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
861 * etc/digestcomps tried to force dates into a
862 19xx when it's not necessary.
864 Fri Jan 19 21:22:08 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
866 * First round of manpage updates finished. They
867 are standardized on -man macros, with minimal
870 * man/tmac.h.in is no longer needed, since the
871 manpages do not depend on them anymore. Note:
872 strict "man" programs that didn't allow ".so"
873 sourcing outside the man tree will now format
874 the man pages correctly.
876 * man/vmh.1 is no longer built, since uip/vmh isn't
878 Tue Jan 9 6:01:22 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
880 * Finished manpages ali-prev
882 * Removed deprecated files from the repository.
883 Specifically, those rooted in zotnet/ and mts/sendmail
884 mts/mmdf. "cvs update -dP" will give a pruned directory
887 * Updated docs/Makefile.in to include README.manpages, and
888 uip/Makefile.in to include popi.c (which isn't being built,
889 though). This allows "make nmhdist" to create an archive that
890 is file-for-file identical to the current cvs repository.
892 Sun Dec 31 20:48:50 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
894 * Create docs/README.manpages, which details
895 the formatting rules I've been using.
899 Sat Dec 30 9:50:13 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
901 * Created a new file "DATE" to hold the date
902 of the most recent nmh release. This date will be
903 used in the manpages.
905 * Updated docs/README.developers to add the step
906 of updating DATE. Also, updated configure to
907 read in the contents of the file as the variable
910 * Started work on updating man pages, with only
911 ali finished so far. Changes: 1) no dependence
912 on an external macro file, 2) uses only
913 -man macros (although I may be mistaken in this),
914 3) syntax in the SYNOPSIS is a little more
915 in line with standard UNIX documentation, such as
916 bold flags and italicized parameters.
918 Sun Dec 24 10:06:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
920 * Updated INSTALL with information about the
921 --with-locking option.
923 * Fixed the Hesiod tests in configure.in. In
924 systems where res_send was in -lresolv, this
925 information was not being communicated to the
926 HESIOD_LIBS var. Now, if res_send is not found
927 in the default libraries, it's assumed to be
928 in -lresolv, and thus -lresolv is appended to
929 HESIOD_LIBS, which will need that to avoid
930 undefined symbols problems.
932 * Fixed the Kerberos tests in configure.in. New
933 versions of Kerberos 5 have renamed -lcrypto
934 to -lk5crypto (circa krb5 1.1 or thereabouts). The
935 new test tries to determine if -lk5crypto exists. If so,
936 this is a new krb5 system. If not, test for -lcrypto
937 and the rest of old krb5. If that fails, look
938 for a genuine krb4 installation.
940 Fri Dec 22 22:08:51 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
942 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in msgchk.man.
943 -snoop was documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
945 Fri Dec 22 23:42:16 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
947 * Made a new ./configure option called
948 "--with-locking" that allows the file
949 locking mechanism to be chosen there instead of
950 requiring a manual edit of config.h.
952 * If the option is not explicitly set, or an
953 invalid option is specified, "dot" locking is
954 chosen. Valid options are "dot", "fcntl",
955 "flock", and "lockf". We need a way to tell
956 the user that these are the valid options, and
957 change the flag "--with-locking" if it's not
960 Fri Dec 22 19:21:29 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
962 * Remove the lex-specific memory hints at the
963 beginning of sbr/dtimep.lex. We've already
964 committed to supporting flex only, since
965 lex does not easily allow us to parse a single
966 string, as well as other problems documented
967 below and on nmh-workers.
969 * Added a switch statement to configure.in to
970 test for Mac OS X. If this is the case, LDFLAGS
971 should not contain "-s" since the linker rejects
974 * Updated MACHINES to include Mac OS X Public Beta,
975 as well as Linux 2.4 running glibc 2.2.
977 Wed Dec 20 16:00:46 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
979 * Marked deprecated directories in docs/README.developers
980 as deprecated, with pointers to the new code location.
981 Eventually these deprecated directories should go away.
983 Tue Dec 19 19:16:37 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
985 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in inc.man. -snoop was
986 documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
988 Thu Dec 14 14:32:09 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
990 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
991 versions on ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/config, dated
992 12-07-00. This should prevent configure from failing
993 on newer operating systems because config.{guess,sub}
994 couldn't correctly identify them.
996 Thu Dec 14 1:30:44 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
998 * Fixed the circular dependency created when I moved
999 zotnet/mts to mts/generic and merged them into libmts.
1000 mts/generic/client.c and mts/generic/mts.c are now in sbr/
1001 (and thus in libmh), which makes libmh self-contained and
1002 not depending on an external archive.
1004 * All include statements now look for mts.h in h/. The
1005 Makefiles and configure script have been modified so that
1006 mts/generic is no longer built.
1008 Mon Dec 11 22:08:07 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1010 * When Shantonu made the new libmts.a, he swapped $(MTSLIB) and
1011 libmh.a in sbr/Makefile.in so that libmh.a comes first, but this
1012 causes the build to fail on Solaris, because libmts.a has to get
1013 ruserpass() out of libmh.a. Swapping them back to the way Ken
1014 Hornstein's patch (which I applied on Jul 20) put them, with
1015 libmh.a correctly coming second. If there are times when libmts.a
1016 needs to come second, then it would appear there's a circular
1017 dependency and someone (Shantonu?) did an mts merge incorrectly.
1019 Fri Sep 8 01:36:23 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1021 * Took out bad time textual time zones like BST and JST.
1022 I found them online somewhere, but am not sure if they're
1025 Fri Sep 8 00:36:48 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1027 * Moved zotnet/mts to mts/generic. This code reorganization
1028 makes the entire zotnet tree deprecated -- bboards is unneeded,
1029 mf was was moved to sbr, tws was rewritten and moved to sbr, and
1032 * Created a new static library called libmts.a used during
1033 compilation which includes the generic mts code and the
1034 smtp/sendmail code. This supercedes the functionality of the
1035 old libsmtp.a and the remains of libzot.a.
1037 * Updated header includes to reference the new location of mts.h
1038 in mts/generic/mts.h. Also, update the configure and top-level
1039 Makefile not to descend into zotnet. Also, they don't descend
1040 into mts/mmdf and mts/sendmail (the sendmail code has been
1041 merged into the smtp code).
1043 * Added #include <h/nmh.h> to h/md5.h, since my compile was
1044 complaining about implicitly-declared memcpy and memset, which
1045 appear to be in strings.h. In any event, nmh.h should take care
1048 * When doing a "make nmhdist", notice that the generated
1049 snapshot does not include zotnet of the mts directories as noted
1050 above. Since they are no longer compiled, and I don't see any
1051 obvious code path to get to them, end-users should probably
1052 not need them. If you think otherwise, turn Makefile generation
1053 back on in configure.in and turn on recursion into those dirs
1054 in the appropriate Makefile.in
1056 Wed Sep 6 22:40:03 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1058 * Tracked down the problem in the new dtimep where time
1059 zones were being radically misreported. It was because the
1060 parser knew about military time zones (such as M or E) but in
1061 some cases did not know about the textual representation of
1062 some zones (like MET). When it encountered one of these, the
1063 date parser misread MET as the military time zone T (well, first
1064 zone M, then E, and finally T). I took military zones out, and
1065 things seem much better. Also, the default behavior of parsing
1066 time zones appears to default to GMT in the absence of better
1067 info, which is less bogus than assuming the mail came from the
1068 current time zone, which was the behavior in 1.04.
1070 Thu Aug 10 13:22:13 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1072 * Decided that limiting the message number columns to 3 on my
1073 scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD (to try to regain space taken by
1074 extra date info) was ill-conceived. It's not that tough to get
1075 past 999 messages, though I imagine it's rather rare to exceed
1076 9999. Changed these to 4. Also put the "replied / encrypted"
1077 column back in YYYYMMDD -- I've never seen it show anything but a
1078 space, but that space is useful if you use scan, grep, and awk
1079 (with the default field separator) to grab message numbers (I know
1080 -- pick should really be used for these purposes...).
1082 Mon Aug 7 20:11:09 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1084 * Modify umask set by mhshow to enable user execute bit, so that
1085 viewers that create temporary directories (e.g., lynx) will be
1086 able to access them.
1088 Thu Aug 03 17:14:08 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1090 * TODO: Allow multiple simultaneous differing contexts, probably
1091 each tied to a parent (terminal) process.
1093 Tue Aug 1 10:48:05 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
1095 * Makefile install rules should not look for generated files in
1096 the source tree -- this will happen to work when configuring and
1097 building inside the source tree but will fail when using an
1098 external build tree. Fixed etc/Makefile.in.
1100 Mon Jul 24 16:20:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1102 * When Shantonu wrote the new, more portable dtimep.lex, he left
1103 out the #ifdef DSTXXX stuff for some reason. Not a good idea, as
1104 that code is required for proper printing of numeric-offset
1105 timezones that have daylight saving time. Without that code,
1106 -0700 during DST gets printed as MST instead of PDT.
1108 * Renamed DSTXXX as ADJUST_NUMERIC_ONLY_TZ_OFFSETS_WRT_DST and
1109 added an explanatory comment by its #definition.
1111 * Updated README.developers with the fact that zotnet/tws is going away.
1113 Thu Jul 20 20:30:52 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1115 * Moved Kimmo's new "--with-hash-backup" to be output with the
1116 rest of the --with options in the configure --help output. Also,
1117 people did not preserve my alphabetization of the --with options
1118 when they added new ones. Re-alphabetized.
1120 * One more pass at README.developers now that it's clear that my
1121 previously-suggested one-line autoconf-file commit can cause
1122 unnecessary local makes and an out-of-sync stamp-h.in file, but
1123 would not cause problems for other people using the CVS files.
1125 * Ken Hornstein's SASL patch was not integrated properly with
1126 Ruud's new merged mts/sendmail code. Kimmo has since fixed nmh so
1127 it compiles, but according to Ken, the SASL stuff still does not
1128 work. Integrating a patch from him for this.
1130 * Last pass at README.developers -- Kimmo's 5-step commit was
1131 overkill. You only need 3 steps, since configure.in is the only
1132 autoconf file with the RCS $Id keyword.
1134 * Applied Kurt J. Lidl <lidl@eng.us.uu.net>'s $MAILHOST patch:
1136 I have a small patch that would be nice to be included --
1137 basically, it allows the usage of the "MAILHOST" environment
1138 variable, without having to have HESIOD turned on. I need
1139 this functionality for my environment, where we have identical
1140 /usr/local on all my machines (so I cannot just hardcode into
1141 the mts.conf file), and I have multiple POP mail servers for
1144 Modified inc.man to reflect that along with "pophost:" and -host,
1145 $MAILHOST can now activate POP mail inclusion as well.
1147 * Fixed warnings from diff on first-time install of nmh. Also
1148 added 'echo's clarifying the etc file installation activities.
1150 Tue Jul 18 19:36:59 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
1152 * Added the answer to Dan's question in README.developers.
1154 Mon Jul 17 19:10:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1156 * Clarified and made some corrections to Kimmo's README.developers
1157 changes (BTW, if anyone can explain why the RCS Ids are able to cause
1158 problems with the dependencies, please fill in the explanation --
1159 I never encountered a problem with the old single-commit method).
1161 Sat Jul 15 23:13:49 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
1163 * Add configure option --with-hash-backup so the backup prefix can
1164 be easily changed from "," to "#".
1166 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that it works with any make.
1168 * Use mkstemp in sbr/lock_file.c.
1170 * Commits of autoconf-related files apparently can't all be done
1171 in one shot due to RCS Ids changing when committing -- updated
1174 Tue Jul 11 14:18:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1176 * Clarified post.man and send.man for those not completely up on
1177 SASL terminology. "SASL encryption layers are not supported for
1178 SMTP" means that encryption is supported for the authentication
1179 but not for the subsequent data stream.
1181 Sat Jul 8 01:36:19 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
1183 * Applied Ken Hornstein <kenh@cmf.nrl.navy.mil>'s patches
1184 implementing SASL support for POP3 and SMTP. If nmh is compiled
1185 with SASL support, using the -sasl switch on the inc, msgchk,
1186 post, and send commands will enable authentication encryption for
1187 SMTP, and both authentication and data stream encryption for POP3.
1189 Sat Jun 10 18:37:59 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1191 * Merged mts/sendmail functionality into mts/smtp; switching between
1192 smtp and sendmail delivery method is now controlled by mts.conf.
1194 * If tsort cannot deal with loops, in addition to defining tsort as
1195 cat, also define lorder as echo.
1197 * Removed uip/popi.c from list of sources.
1199 Thu Jun 08 19:36:57 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1201 * New dtimep.lex didn't parse day names properly. Fixed. Also
1202 clarified ambiguous comments preceding day_map[] array (from old
1203 dtimep.lex) that probably led to the erroneous cp++ being added.
1205 Wed Jun 7 20:52:33 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1207 * Added one more mkstemp invocation to uip/spost.c (which was in a
1210 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to clean up permissions handling
1211 and error handling in uip/inc.c.
1213 Mon Jun 5 22:10:07 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1215 * Use cat instead of tsort if tsort cannot deal with loops in its
1216 input (which is the case for tsort from GNU textutils).
1218 Mon Jun 5 21:14:36 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1220 * If lockfile is present, and its dotlockfile program is setgid,
1221 inc does not need to be setgid.
1223 Sun Jun 4 21:35:40 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1225 * Added autoconf test for Miquel van Smoorenburg's liblockfile
1226 library, as found on Debian systems.
1228 * Added liblockfile support to sbr/lock_file.c.
1230 Wed May 31 7:19:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1232 * Fixed up dtimep.lex a bit. Added back memory options for AIX to
1233 increase available memory. Took out %option noyywrap, which
1234 wasn't understood by AT&T lex, as well as the -i
1235 case-insensitivity flag.
1237 Wed May 31 07:40:45 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1239 * Added a lint target to the Makefiles and a check in autoconf
1240 to determine whether lint or lclint exists on the system.
1242 Fri May 30 19:21:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1244 * etc/Makefile.in was incorrectly installing mts.conf.in and
1245 sendfiles.in -- fixed. Generated sendfiles script was not a
1246 dependency of the `all' target, and was incorrectly included in
1247 the distribution. Changed the suffix for the backed-up previous
1248 versions of the etc files from the ambiguous .old to .prev. Added
1249 call to diff -- only keep the .prev files around if different from
1250 the newly-installed versions (intentionally didn't redirect output
1251 to /dev/null so you'll notice when your changed versions are
1252 getting moved aside).
1254 * INSTALL never documented the etc/*.old thing. Documented the
1255 new etc/*.prev thing (including a note to watch for diff output).
1257 * Applied Alec Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu>'s dropsbr.c patch:
1259 In the map_write routine, a call is made to map_open and this
1260 call is supposed to set the "clear" variable to 0 or 1,
1261 depending on whether the map file is empty or not. In
1262 mh6.8.3, this worked because map_open would set "clear" by
1263 calling the mbx_Xopen routine. In nmh, the code for mbx_Xopen
1264 was merged into mbx_open, but the interface for mbx_open
1265 doesn't support the clear variable, so that functionality was
1266 lost. The map_open interface still contains "int *clear" in
1267 the prototype, but never sets it.
1269 My patch eliminates "clear" from the map_open interface (I
1270 checked to make sure that map_write is the only client of
1271 map_open). Furthermore, my patch also sets the "clear"
1272 variable properly at the beginning of map_write by calling
1273 fstat(). This eliminates the bug in that the value of "clear"
1274 being used later in the routine was just stack garbage.
1276 Having a bad value of clear causes this next bug to be
1277 triggered: The fp file pointer was being opened with fdopen,
1278 but in two of the three switch cases it wasn't being closed.
1279 In certain cases, this was causing packf to run out of file
1280 descriptors if you attempted to pack a large folder.
1282 Mon May 29 7:48:15 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1284 * Moved the date parsing routines from zotnet/tws to sbr/ (and
1285 tws.h to h/). Updated all source files to reflect to new location
1288 * Rewrote dparsetime (in dtimep.lex -> dtimep.c) to replace the
1289 old zotnet/tws/dtimep.c, dtimep.lex, lexstring.c, lexedit.c, and
1290 dtimep.c-lexed. It should now work with flex (although untested
1291 with lex), and requires no sed-ing. For now, I have the lexed
1292 version in the distribution, so that end-users don't need to worry
1293 about running it through flex/lex. I have not added back support
1294 for guessing the time zone when it's not specified.
1296 Sun May 28 17:44:15 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1298 * Added autoconf check for getutent().
1300 * Changed uip/rcvtty.c and uip/slocal.c to use getutent() and
1301 friends. Since I can only check on Linux, please check if
1302 this works on other systems.
1304 Sun May 28 14:58:49 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1306 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to uip/scansbr.c for more
1307 checks for write failures.
1309 * Unlink temporary file properly in uip/rcvtty.c.
1311 * Moved viamail from bindir to libdir.
1313 * Changed sendfiles into sendfiles.in, so that path to viamail
1316 * Added gzip support to sendfiles.
1318 * Added References header to replcomps and replgroupcomps.
1320 Sun May 28 14:39:31 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1322 * Fixed m_getfld bug which caused segmentation faults when
1323 incorporating messages which ended in multiple linefeeds crossing
1326 Fri May 26 13:21:59 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1328 * msh has been unable to show MIME messages ever since 1.0. Alec
1329 Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu> tracked down the problem to the
1330 -show flag being passed to mhshow. mhshow is equivalent to the
1331 old mhn -show, so we don't need the -show anymore. Removed it.
1333 Fri May 12 02:51:21 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1335 * zotnet/bboards is not longer built by default. Goal is to move
1336 the assorted functions in zotnet into sbr or some more logical
1339 * Moved zotnet/mf to sbr, and changed mf.h references accordingly,
1340 as well as Makefiles.
1342 Thu May 11 02:21:34 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1344 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that both SRCS and OBJS aren't
1345 seperately and redundantly defined, but so that OBJS is a
1346 pattern-substituted version of SRCS with suffix .c -> .o. This
1347 should make maintainability easier.
1349 * Added section to MACHINES indicating what platforms nmh is known
1350 to compile and work on, just to give users peace of mind, or
1351 something. This is by no means complete or exhaustive, so add
1352 whatever you know works.
1354 Tue May 09 20:38:04 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1356 * Alphabetized Shantonu's $pop_kinds output on configure's "pop is
1357 enabled" line. If POP3 is the only kind of POP enabled, say so,
1358 rather than just saying "yes" (which is ambiguous).
1360 * Fixed four warnings in Shantonu's new getpass.c. Needed to
1361 #include <stdlib.h> for calloc(), <unistd.h> for ttyname(), and
1362 "h/mh.h" for adios(). Also changed ch from char to int to get rid
1363 of "comparison is always 1 due to limited range of data type" on EOF.
1365 * Added steps to README.developers saying to change the version
1366 number to X.Y.Z+dev. Did a little rearranging and changed the FTP
1367 dir from /home/ftp to /var/ftp to reflect Doug's new machine.
1369 * Changed configure.in to use gcc -Wall even without
1370 --enable-debug, to prevent developers compiling optimized from
1371 introducing warnings, and to give end-users a warm, fuzzy feeling
1372 as they (hopefully) see no warnings come out (except perhaps on
1373 the lex output file) even with -Wall.
1375 * Renamed getpass() to nmh_getpass() since the prototype for
1376 getpass() varies from OS to OS, and we want to _always_ use our
1377 version of the function. Fixed all the callers to use
1378 nmh_getpass() and added it to prototypes.h. Semi-arbitrarily
1379 upped MAX_PASSWORD_LEN from 128 to 256. buf was being calloc()'d
1380 and the memory leaked -- should have just been declared as static
1381 char array. Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the
1382 copyright message, as this version has been changed significantly
1383 from the BSD version.
1385 * Added "nmh-local functions to use in preference to OS versions"
1386 section to README.developers (currently just says to use
1387 nmh_getpass() instead of system getpass()).
1389 * Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the copyright message
1390 in ruserpass.c also.
1392 * Added mts.conf.5 page per Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s
1395 This happens on solaris:
1398 windex entry incorrect: mts.conf(5) not found.
1399 No manual entry for mts.conf.
1403 % echo ".so man5/mh-tailor.5" > mts.conf.5
1405 done in the man5 directory. We need to add 'mts.conf.5' as a
1406 reference sourcing mh-tailor.5.
1408 Mon May 08 23:51:55 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1410 * Doug informed me that the way I had restored the "lost" version
1411 histories was wrong, because `cvs checkout's of old versions of
1412 nmh wouldn't work properly. It occurs to me that this could be
1413 fixed by simply deleting those tags in the new-location *,v files,
1414 but oh well. I'm putting everything back to the way Doug
1415 originally had it. To get the old version history for a file that
1416 used to be in the top directory, you'll need to "blindly" do a
1417 `cvs log' there (even though you won't have a local copy of the
1418 file in that directory). `cvs diff' will no longer be able to
1419 diff pre-move versions vs. post-move versions -- you'll have to do
1420 a lot of manual gyrations with `cvs checkout' and then use `diff'.
1422 * I had alphabetized the --configure options in the --help output
1423 awhile back, but Shantonu added --enable-apop just under
1424 --enable-pop. Put it in alphabetical order and clarified what
1425 --enable-apop does vs. --enable-pop and --with-krb4. Also changed
1426 --with-mts help line from "mail transport agent" to "mail
1427 transport agent/service" so the 's' in "mts" doesn't seem to come
1430 * Added two steps to "releasing nmh" in README.developers. After
1431 making the tarball, it's a good idea to diff the tree vs. the CVS
1432 tree to make sure no files got left out, and then to chown the
1433 files so that they're owned by root, preventing a Trojaning attack
1434 by a malicious remote user with a UID matching yours.
1436 * Changed DIFFERENCES to say that RPOP is not currently supported
1437 rather than implying it by saying that APOP, KPOP, and POP[3] are.
1439 Sun May 07 18:16:43 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1441 * Imported NetBSD version of getpass() and made extensive
1442 revisions for compatibility with programs that pipe the password
1443 to stdin, such as exmh.
1445 * Removed tests for system ruserpass() which sometimes gave
1446 phantom positive results. Also, bext to use internal functions if
1447 we ever want to change .netrc format to something else, or access
1450 Sat May 06 08:28:09 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1452 * Restored lost version histories for those moved files by doing a
1453 manual `mv' in the CVSROOT on mhost. CVS badly needs a `cvs mv'
1454 command so that you can move files (without having physical access
1455 to the CVSROOT) without losing versioning. Put MACHINES back at
1456 the top level as it needs to be read before building. Fixed DIST
1457 variable in {.,docs}/Makefile.in to reflect that and to add
1458 missing entry for "INSTALL" file.
1460 Sat May 06 13:13:07 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1462 * Re-cleaned up nmh documentation (by moving things to docs
1463 subdir) and modified Makefile & configure.in to handle the change.
1465 Mon Apr 17 21:28:40 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1467 * Scott Blachowicz pointed out that the configure --help output
1468 for --enable-masquerade was misleading. Clarified.
1470 Mon Apr 17 19:01:00 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1472 * APOP support can be compiled in to inc and msgchk using
1475 * To access an APOP host, specify -apop on the command line
1476 along with any -host or -user option.
1478 Fri Apr 14 23:10:44 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1480 * Upped the version number to 1.0.4+dev until the next nmh release.
1482 * Added a "releasing nmh" section to README.developers, while the
1483 process was fresh in my mind.
1485 Fri Apr 14 18:21:34 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1487 * Added new files README.developers, ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6, and
1488 ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html to DIST target in Makefile.in.
1490 * Released nmh-1.0.4.
1492 Tue Apr 11 21:37:03 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1494 * Applied Brian Campbell <bacam@tardis.ed.ac.uk>'s mhn.defaults.sh
1497 It appears that there shouldn't be quotes around the %s in the
1498 iso-8859-1 charset entry; xterm passes the remaining arguments
1499 to the program, quoting them means that xterm thinks they're
1500 part of the program's name.
1502 This %s isn't the same as the "Insert content subtype" one from
1503 mhshow-show-* -- it doesn't come from MIME headers and is safe not
1506 Sun Apr 09 13:03:59 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1508 * added check in fmt_compile() to handle a single-character
1509 format string. fmt_compile() depends on having an array of
1510 format characters with an empty item at the end. A
1511 single-character format would cause programs using this
1512 function to segfault because the algorithm used to decide on
1513 the length of the array mistakenly created a single-item array
1514 when the format string was one character. This eventually
1515 caused problems when the program attempted to test item+1
1518 Thu Apr 06 21:53:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1520 * Richard Coleman threw out a lot of old MH-specific files in nmh.
1521 Much of the stuff, indeed, is not worth saving, but there are
1522 nuggets that are very worthwhile, and should probably be added
1523 back in. Most important, IMHO, are the MH change logs, as they
1524 can help answer questions like "Why is this code like this?" or
1525 "How long has this been broken?" or "What was this ever used for?"
1527 I've added a new file to the nmh tree called
1528 ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6. It's cobbled together from the
1529 mh-6.8.4/papers/mh*/MHCHANGES files. I've re-ordered the entries
1530 to go from newest at the top to oldest at the bottom to match the
1531 ChangeLog convention. Unfortunately there are no change logs for
1532 versions of MH prior to 3 in the MH tar files available at
1533 <ftp://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/mh>. Also, it appears to me that there
1534 are MH-6.6 changes that aren't documented in the logs.
1536 I've also added ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html. This is
1537 based on mh-6.8.4/papers/changes/mh-changes.ms. The nroff format
1538 and its "catman"-type output are a pain to deal with, but I was
1539 loath to throw away the formatting, so I converted the file to
1540 HTML. The only actual markup in the body are the "<B>" and "<U>"
1541 tags, and "<" and ">" instead of '<' and '>', so it's quite
1542 doable to view the file in plain ASCII mode as well. Note that
1543 some of the changes this file documents as having been made in
1544 MH-6.8.4 may not be present in nmh -- Richard started with 6.8.3
1545 and later put in certain 6.8.4 stuff.
1547 Wed Apr 05 21:09:28 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1549 * Applied Eric Schnoebelen <eric@cirr.com>'s mhshowsbr.c patch
1550 fixing apparent bugs in Dan Winship's new security quoting code:
1552 Since upgrading, I've been getting the following errors
1553 while attempting to process some MIME messages:
1555 (1) Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
1560 (2) line 1/10 (END)Segmentation fault (core dumped)
1562 (2) appears to be due to the testing of an unset pointer in
1563 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux(). (1) appears to be caused by
1564 mis-quoting a filename being handed to the shell in
1565 mhshowsbr.c:show_content_aux().
1567 Resolving the pointer reference issue in
1568 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux() turned up a similar mis-quoting
1569 problem in the routine.
1571 Tue Mar 28 16:17:39 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1573 * Applied Todd.Miller@courtesan.com's patch to dropsbr.c to
1574 prevent core dumping on packf. Here's the note from his message:
1576 Since sizeof(buffer) == sizeof(tmpbuffer) packf will dump
1577 core on a file w/o a From line with a line >= BUFSIZ.
1578 I noticed this because I had a junk file in my mail
1581 Fri Mar 17 11:59:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1583 * wesley.craig@umich.edu did not document his previous KPOP patch,
1584 so I did so, and asked him to check what I wrote. Unfortunately
1585 he didn't notice my misunderstanding of his patch. I wrote that
1586 if you #define POPSERVICE "kpop", inc and msgchk will use KPOP
1587 exclusively, but if you leave it as "pop3", you can use Wesley's
1588 new -kpop switch on a given invocation. Instead, however, -kpop
1589 turned out to be necessary on every invocation, and a KPOP user
1590 complained. Applied Wesley's new patch, which makes things work
1591 like I thought his original patch did. After that, did one more
1592 clarifying pass to the documentation in inc.man and msgchk.man.
1594 Wed Mar 15 18:45:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1596 * When I fixed the long-standing makedir() bugs in January, I had
1597 the code call strtoul(..., 0), which I believed to be safe as all
1598 modes specified as ASCII constants in the nmh code started with a
1599 leading zero (signifying octal), which I did as it would work if
1600 internal constants were ever changed to hex. Unfortunately I was
1601 unaware of the "Folder-Protect:" .mh_profile entry, which
1602 mh-profile.man documents as an octal-only constant, with no
1603 leading zero required. I've changed the strtoul() call to an
1604 atooi() call and removed the misleading leading zeroes on the
1605 ASCII octal constants in the code and man pages. Also changed the
1606 "Folder-Protect:" example in the man page to something more
1607 interesting than a duplication of the default.
1609 * When I added my --enable-masquerade option, you'll note that I
1610 didn't make it --enable-nmh-masquerade. I find the --enable-nmh-*
1611 options too wordy and I'm not sure why Richard went that route.
1612 I've renamed them to just --enable-*, but the old versions will
1613 still work as well (they just aren't advertised).
1615 * Added a line to the "nmh configuration" output saying whether
1618 * Added a new README.developers file. From the file:
1620 This file is intended to provide a few tips for anyone doing
1621 development on nmh. Developers who learn things "the hard
1622 way" about the nmh codebase (as opposed to local info best
1623 encoded in a comment) are encouraged to share their wisdom
1626 Currently the topics are "autoconf files" and "directory structure".
1628 Tue Mar 14 12:41:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1630 * Applied, after some finessing,
1631 Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s --with-smtpservers patch:
1633 Here's a patch that allows you to add
1635 --with-smtpservers=<some.host.name>
1637 to the ./configure command line to set the "servers: " line in
1638 etc/mts.conf. Around here, we use "mailhost" so that all
1639 machines in the current domain just talk to a central machine
1640 and nothing else runs an MTA. Now, I can use
1642 --with-smtpservers=mailhost
1644 instead of having to remember to fix this by hand (and often
1645 forgetting to do so!).
1647 * Inspired by Simon's patch, added an --enable-masquerade option
1648 to configure. It will set the "masquerade:" line of mts.conf.
1649 You may specify a subset of the three types of masquerading, like
1650 --enable-masquerade="draft_from mmailid", or leave off explicit
1651 arguments to enable all three types.
1653 * Alphabetized the --enable and --with options in configure.in and
1654 INSTALL and added documentation of the two new options to the latter.
1656 * Added new dependency for mts.conf: Makefile. If this isn't
1657 done, then when you reconfigure nmh with new values for
1658 --enable-masquerade or --with-smtpservers, you'll fail to get an
1659 updated copy of mts.conf.
1661 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtimep.lex patch:
1663 It seems that some MUA's didn't handle y2k very well - ELM
1664 seems to be one of them, and Ultrix's DXmail (based on MH!).
1665 I've got a few emails this month that look like:
1667 575 Jan 00 Xxxxxx Xxxx 3603 ...
1669 22+ Jan 00 Xxx Xxxxx 1771 ...
1671 The first has "15 Jan 100" as the date and the second has
1672 "19 Jan 00" as the date. The following works around this so
1673 that scan, show, sortm, etc work ok.
1675 I put Simon's patch under the control of a new #define called
1676 FIX_NON_Y2K_COMPLIANT_MUA_DATES. There's some commentary in
1677 acconfig.h about when you might not want to #define it.
1679 * Created new dtimep.c-lexed with Simon's change using dtimep.lex
1680 lexed on Solaris 2.6. Added missing dependency in
1681 zotnet/tws/Makefile.in for dtimep.c: dtimep.c-lexed.
1683 * Added scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD format files.
1685 Mon Mar 13 21:32:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1687 * Applied Sullivan N. Beck <sbeck@cise.ufl.edu>'s mhshow-suffix patch:
1689 With the patch below, you can add lines like:
1691 mhshow-suffix-application/msword: .doc
1692 mhshow-suffix-application/PostScript: .ps
1694 to the mhn.defaults file to append the given suffix to a
1695 scratch file. This allows applications which require a
1696 certain suffix to run properly.
1698 * Removed -force_html from lynx entry in mhn.defaults.sh (I
1699 believe older versions of lynx lack that option) and added
1700 "mhshow-suffix-text/html: .html".
1702 * Modified username_extension masquerading to only use the
1703 extended address on generated [Resent-]From: lines and SMTP
1704 envelope From:. With Neil's original implementation, nmh's global
1705 idea of the username was changed, which would result in inc lying
1706 and saying you had no new mail because it was looking for a
1707 mailbox called, for instance, "dan-nmh" (where username was "dan"
1708 and $USERNAME_EXTENSION was "-nmh").
1710 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtime.c patch:
1712 There's a wrap-around problem that affects the implementation
1713 of Zeller's congruence in dtime.c. This causes the day-of-week
1714 calculations to fail for dates after Feb 29, 2000 (probably up
1715 until some year far in the future).
1717 Mon Mar 06 12:20:20 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1719 * Applied Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s msh.c patch:
1721 I finally tracked down the problem in msh that was causing
1722 errors whenever I tried to examine a 'mmdf' style mailbox.
1724 It turns out that not enough memory was being allocated with
1725 calloc(), causing memory pointers to be overwritten and
1728 Fri Mar 03 16:07:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1730 * Changed the new "plussed_user" option to mts.conf's
1731 "masquerade:" to "username_extension" after getting feedback from
1732 qmail users, who use '-' as a separator rather than '+'. Removed
1733 checking of $USERPLUS variable. Now check $USERNAME_EXTENSION,
1734 which needs to include the appropriate separator for your MTA
1735 ('-', '+', or whatever) as its first character.
1737 Thu Mar 02 23:04:30 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1739 * Added a new "boolean" type to mh.h and TRUE and FALSE constants.
1741 * Added a note to DIFFERENCES stating that it's out-of-date
1742 (Richard was the last one to update it) and that we should
1743 consider only documenting incompatibilities with MH there.
1745 * Implemented (and documented) a third kind of username
1746 masquerading: "plussed user" masquerading. This one was suggested
1747 by Neil Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>. It's based on sendmail's
1748 "plussed user" feature, where mail sent to <user>+<string> will be
1749 delivered to <user>. When it's enabled, it's controlled by the
1750 $USERPLUS environment variable. How is it enabled? Well, that
1753 * Renamed the "mmailid:" setting in mts.conf to "masquerade:", and
1754 changed it so that rather than being a boolean, it can be set to
1755 any combination of the three values "draft_from", "mmailid", and
1756 "plussed_user". Thus it is now possible to enable the three types
1757 of masquerading individually.
1759 * Fixed a bug with "mmailid" masquerading (dating back to MH?)
1760 where if it was turned on, ','s would no longer be considered
1761 GECOS field delimiters.
1763 Wed Mar 01 23:30:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1765 * Changed the GECOS-field '&' translation behavior to be
1766 controlled by the BSD42 #define rather than GCOS_HACK, since it's
1767 apparently always appropriate on OSes where BSD42 is #defined, and
1768 never appropriate on any other OSes. Thanks to Kimmo Suominen for
1769 responding to my "What is this code here for?" comment in mts.c
1770 and explaining the feature.
1772 Mon Feb 28 21:50:29 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1774 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3+dev (ideally this should be
1775 done by whoever makes a release tar file, immediately after doing
1778 * Applied Paul Fox <pgf-spam@foxharp.boston.ma.us>'s scansbr.c
1779 patch, posted to comp.mail.mh, which he says prevents loss of mail
1780 when inc'ing into a full filesystem.
1782 * Changed "echo > stamp-h.in" in Makefile.in to "date > stamp-h.in"
1783 so that stamp-h.in will be different each time configure.in and
1784 related files are changed, making it easier to check it in (which
1785 is necessary to prevent unnecessary autoconf calls).
1787 * My declaration of initgroups() in slocal.c to eliminate the "no
1788 prototype" warning wasn't portable (FreeBSD 3.[23] choked). Now
1789 use AC_EGREP_HEADER to see where initgroups() is declared, if
1792 Sun Feb 20 12:17:15 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1794 * Fix security hole in mhshowsbr.c which allowed untrusted shell
1795 code to be executed.
1797 * Released nmh 1.0.3.
1799 Thu Feb 10 10:54:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1801 * Oops. %-escapes on mhstore lines in mhn.defaults.sh should not
1802 be surrounded by single quotes, as a shell is not spawned when
1803 just saving files, and the filenames will end up with literal
1804 quotes embedded in them.
1806 Fri Feb 04 12:29:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1808 * Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
1809 got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
1810 the -help output. One theory is that they were making reference
1811 to the fact that clearly you know about the -help option since
1812 you're currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea
1813 to overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
1814 supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
1817 The other theory is that because you can say something like
1818 "mhstore -" and get "mhstore: - ambiguous. It matches" followed
1819 by the same list of switches you get with -help, they were saying
1820 you can "sorta" abbreviate "-help" as "-". You don't get the
1821 "Usage:" string, though, so it's not really the same thing.
1823 Thu Feb 03 17:52:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1825 * Applied wesley.craig@umich.edu's KPOP patches. According to him:
1827 The following patch fixes a problem with requesting a
1828 service key for a machine that has multiple 'A' records. It
1829 also makes "-kpop" a command line option, for users who
1830 would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".
1832 Did no testing of the new features, as I don't have access to a
1835 * Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
1837 * Modified INSTALL and config.h.in to reflect the new -kpop feature.
1839 Fri Jan 28 17:39:24 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1841 * All %-escapes in mhn.defaults that actually expand to something
1842 should be surrounded by single quotes. Added quotes to the ones
1843 in mhn.defaults.sh that were missing them.
1845 * Added check for lynx to write mhshow-show-text/html line in
1848 Thu Jan 27 12:22:25 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1850 * makedir() had multiple bugs dating back to MH. An octal
1851 constant was apparently being interpreted as decimal, resulting in
1852 directories with no user read or execute permissions, making
1853 nested directory creation fail. And there wasn't even an
1854 _attempt_ to set desired permissions (e.g. from "Folder-Protect:"
1855 in .mh_profile) on the outer directories of a nested directory.
1857 * A second `make install' would always fail because the check for
1858 whether mh_profile.5 existed was written incorrectly.
1860 Wed Jan 26 02:22:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1862 * Added documentation on both types of masquerading to post's man
1865 Tue Jan 25 22:58:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1867 * Doug's portability fix of my setgid inc autodetection had a
1868 caching bug -- if you re-ran configure, uip/Makefile would be
1869 corrupted, and installation would bomb out on OSes where inc needs
1872 * Implemented a new kind of email address masquerading. Usually,
1873 when a user writes a custom "From:" header in a draft, nmh uses it
1874 rather than generating one. However, the user's true address is
1875 used in the SMTP envelope "From:" and is revealed in the "Sender:"
1876 header. Now, when mmailid is set to non-zero, the envelope
1877 "From:" uses the address specified in the draft "From:" header,
1878 and there is no "Sender:" header. This is useful when sending on
1879 behalf of a remote POP3 account or when remote mail robots
1880 incorrectly use the envelope "From:" in preference to the body
1881 "From:". This processing has only been implemented for post, not
1882 for the undocumented spost (which was already missing some "From:"
1883 processing that post has).
1885 Mon Jan 24 22:26:06 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1887 * Got rid of the rest of the gcc -Wall warnings that I didn't have
1888 time for on 1999-07-15 (and, it would seem, some new ones people
1889 introduced since then). The primary ones were the warnings that
1890 default prototypes were being used for [v]snprintf() and
1891 str[n]casecmp(). As of right now, there are _no_ compilation
1892 warnings except on dtimep.c-lexed (at least under AIX 4.1.5 and
1895 Sun Jan 2 23:42:18 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1897 * Move mhtest from bindir to libdir.
1899 * Move sendfiles from libdir to bindir.
1901 * Updated sendfiles manpage to reflect this change.
1903 * Added documentation for -build and -file switches to repl and
1904 forw manpages (patch from Peter Maydell).
1906 * Fixed interaction between specifying -cc in profile and -group on
1909 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1911 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
1912 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
1913 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
1916 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1918 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
1919 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
1920 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
1921 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
1922 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
1923 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).
1925 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1927 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
1929 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1931 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
1932 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
1933 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
1934 caught again. This works for now.
1936 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
1938 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1940 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
1941 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
1943 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1945 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
1946 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
1948 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
1950 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
1952 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1954 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
1955 changes. Both need more cleanup.
1957 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1959 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
1960 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
1961 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
1962 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
1963 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
1966 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1968 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
1969 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
1970 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
1972 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
1973 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
1976 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1978 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
1979 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
1980 to a directory on another device with more free space.
1982 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1984 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
1985 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
1987 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1989 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
1992 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
1993 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
1995 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
1996 macros, regardless of platform.
1998 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
1999 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
2001 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
2002 with x-conversions=gzip.
2004 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2006 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
2009 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
2010 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
2011 implicit definition of ioctl().
2013 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
2014 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
2015 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
2016 want to mess with them.
2018 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2020 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
2021 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
2023 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
2024 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
2026 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
2027 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
2028 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
2030 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
2031 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
2032 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
2034 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
2035 function initgroups.
2037 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
2040 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
2041 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
2044 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
2045 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
2048 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
2049 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
2053 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2055 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
2056 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
2057 preventing compilation on at least linux.
2059 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
2060 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
2062 Thu Sep 09 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2064 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
2066 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
2067 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
2068 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
2069 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
2071 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
2072 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
2074 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
2076 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
2078 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
2080 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
2081 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
2083 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
2085 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
2086 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
2088 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
2089 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
2090 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
2091 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
2093 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
2094 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
2096 Sat Jun 09 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2098 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
2099 substitute it for mktemp if available.
2101 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2103 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
2104 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
2107 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
2109 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
2111 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
2113 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
2114 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
2116 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
2117 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
2118 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
2120 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
2121 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
2122 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
2124 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
2125 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
2126 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
2128 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
2129 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
2132 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
2133 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
2135 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
2136 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
2138 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
2139 <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
2141 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
2142 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
2143 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
2145 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
2146 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
2148 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
2149 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
2150 <elleron@servtech.com>.
2152 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
2153 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
2156 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
2157 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
2159 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
2160 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
2161 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
2162 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
2164 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
2165 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
2167 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2171 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
2172 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
2173 would not be changed.
2175 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
2176 one from the Apache web server.
2178 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
2179 (this should have been done a long time ago).
2181 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
2182 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
2183 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
2185 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
2187 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
2189 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
2190 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
2193 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
2194 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
2195 removes a bad race condition.
2197 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
2200 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
2201 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
2202 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
2204 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
2205 sequence information.
2207 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
2208 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
2210 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
2213 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
2216 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
2218 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
2219 interpret 034 as octal.
2221 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
2223 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
2224 mhstore, and mhbuild.
2226 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
2227 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
2229 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
2230 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
2232 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
2233 in the c_cefile structure when building.
2235 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
2236 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
2238 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
2239 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
2240 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
2242 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
2243 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
2244 and mhshow. Updated man pages
2246 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
2248 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
2250 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
2251 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
2254 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
2256 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
2257 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
2259 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
2260 header field information.
2262 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
2263 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
2265 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
2266 values when parsing a content.
2268 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
2269 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
2271 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
2272 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
2274 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
2275 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
2277 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
2278 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
2280 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
2282 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
2284 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
2286 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
2288 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
2289 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
2292 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
2293 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
2295 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
2296 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
2297 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
2298 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
2299 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
2300 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
2303 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
2305 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
2306 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
2307 buffer length checks for this parameter.
2309 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
2310 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
2312 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
2314 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
2315 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
2316 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
2317 of the limits on the length of command lines.
2319 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
2320 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
2323 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
2324 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
2325 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
2326 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
2329 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2331 * Released nmh-0.27.
2333 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
2334 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
2336 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
2337 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
2338 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
2339 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
2342 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
2343 mhbuild returns an error.
2345 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
2346 rename the draft file.
2348 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
2349 use a global variable.
2351 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
2352 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
2354 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
2355 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
2357 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
2358 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
2359 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
2361 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
2362 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
2364 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
2365 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
2368 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
2369 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
2372 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
2373 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
2375 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
2376 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
2377 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
2379 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
2380 to new function output_content_folder.
2382 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
2383 new function output_content_file.
2385 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
2386 to new function parse_format_string.
2388 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
2389 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
2390 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
2391 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
2393 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
2394 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
2395 message/external file from ftp.
2397 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
2398 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
2399 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
2401 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
2402 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
2405 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
2408 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
2409 new file mhstoresbr.c
2411 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
2414 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
2415 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
2417 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
2418 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
2420 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
2421 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
2422 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
2424 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
2426 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
2428 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
2429 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
2432 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
2433 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
2435 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
2438 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
2440 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2442 * Released nmh-0.26.
2444 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
2445 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
2446 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
2447 is still the same (dashstuffing).
2449 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
2450 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
2451 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
2452 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
2453 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
2455 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
2456 But it is not on by default.
2458 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
2459 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
2461 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
2463 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
2465 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
2467 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
2469 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
2470 number of the "cur" message when packing.
2472 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2474 * Released nmh-0.25.
2476 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
2477 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
2478 uses the original name of the library.
2480 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
2481 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
2484 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
2485 list_content and list_debug.
2487 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
2489 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
2490 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.
2492 1998-02-27 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2494 * Released nmh-0.24.
2496 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
2498 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
2499 are given, that order doesn't matter.
2501 * Fix bug in seq_list.c when realloc'ing for
2502 large sequence line.
2504 1998-02-23 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2506 * Released nmh-0.23.
2508 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
2510 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
2511 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan
2512 content, decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary
2513 string). I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
2515 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
2516 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
2519 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
2521 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
2523 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
2525 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
2526 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
2528 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
2529 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.
2531 * Add note to MACHINES file that on Linux, configure
2532 doesn't find the functions sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
2534 * Fix configuration for machines that don't have (or find)
2535 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
2537 1998-02-11 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2539 * Released nmh-0.22.
2541 * Add a configure check for sigsetjmp. Add some conditional
2542 #define's in h/signals.h in case it's not found.
2544 * Added additional notes about -auto switch in mhn man page.
2546 * Added note about MM_CHARSET environment variable to
2547 mh-profile(5) man page.
2549 * Fix signal problem in mhn.c (change setjmp/longjmp to
2550 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp).
2552 1998-02-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2554 * Released nmh-0.22-pre1.
2556 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
2557 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
2559 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
2561 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
2562 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
2563 entry point for parsing MIME files.
2565 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
2566 source message on the standard input.
2568 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
2570 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
2571 rather than -rfc934mode.
2573 * Fix mhbuild, so that Content-Description and RFC-822 comments
2574 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
2577 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
2578 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).
2580 * Restore HP specific code to zotnet/tws/lexstring.c. Apparently
2583 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2585 * Released nmh-0.21.
2587 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
2588 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.
2590 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what transfer
2593 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what character set
2594 to use for text contents.
2596 * Removed old hpux specific code from zotnet/tws/lexstring.c
2598 1998-02-02 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2600 * Released nmh-0.21-pre2.
2602 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
2604 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
2605 header fields as per RFC-2047.
2607 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
2608 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
2609 spaces between encoded word are.
2611 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
2613 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
2614 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
2616 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
2617 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
2618 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
2620 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
2622 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
2623 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
2625 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.
2627 * Added support for %(decode) to fmtdump.c.
2629 * check_charset() now accepts US-ASCII as a subset of any
2630 ISO-8859-X character set.
2632 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
2635 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
2636 permissions, not write permissions.
2638 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
2639 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
2641 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
2644 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2646 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
2648 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
2649 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
2651 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
2652 message contains valid character set.
2654 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
2655 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
2657 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
2658 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
2660 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
2661 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
2662 between an encoded word and normal text.
2664 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
2665 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
2667 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
2668 as a RFC-2047 header field.
2670 * The command install-mh now recognizes the switches -version
2673 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
2674 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
2677 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
2678 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
2680 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
2681 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
2683 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
2685 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2687 * Released nmh-0.20.
2689 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
2691 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.
2693 * Changed the default format file for mhl (mhl.format) to
2694 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
2695 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
2697 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
2698 and the To: line was missing.
2700 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
2702 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2704 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
2706 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
2707 watch the POP transaction.
2709 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
2710 first, and use it if available.
2712 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
2713 first, and use it if available.
2715 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2717 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
2719 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
2720 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
2721 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
2724 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
2725 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
2726 returns the state FLDPLUS.
2728 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
2729 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
2732 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
2734 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
2735 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
2737 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
2739 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
2740 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
2742 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
2743 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
2744 message to which you are replying.
2746 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
2747 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
2748 making group replies.
2750 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
2752 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2754 * Released nmh-0.19.
2756 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
2757 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
2759 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
2760 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
2761 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
2762 to the end of the man page.
2764 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
2765 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
2766 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
2767 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
2768 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
2769 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
2771 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
2774 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
2775 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
2776 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
2778 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
2779 the next available number above the message number you wish
2782 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
2783 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
2785 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
2786 file sbr/seq_print.c
2788 * flist will now update the current folder.
2790 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
2791 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
2792 but now undocumented.
2794 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
2797 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
2798 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
2800 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
2802 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
2803 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
2805 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2807 * Released nmh-0.18.
2809 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
2810 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
2811 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
2813 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
2814 retains the public/private status of sequences.
2816 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
2817 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
2818 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
2819 previous public/private status.
2821 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
2824 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
2827 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
2828 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
2829 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
2831 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
2832 take option to determine whether it should get current
2833 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
2834 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
2836 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
2838 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
2839 wait for stopped processes.
2841 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
2842 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
2844 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2846 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
2848 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
2849 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
2851 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
2852 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
2854 * Change the way that memory for message status is
2855 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
2856 the folder/message structure. This required changing
2857 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
2859 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
2862 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
2865 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
2867 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
2868 the debugging output.
2870 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
2871 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
2873 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2875 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
2877 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
2878 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
2880 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
2882 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
2883 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
2884 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
2885 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
2886 in the given sequence.
2888 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
2889 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
2890 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
2891 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
2892 subdirectories of a given directory.
2894 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
2895 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
2896 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
2898 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
2899 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
2901 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
2903 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
2906 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
2907 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
2908 fields are now calculated at runtime.
2910 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
2911 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
2912 are calculated at runtime.
2914 Sun Nov 30 19:14:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2916 * Released nmh-0.18-pre2.
2918 * Add paragraph to man page for install-mh and to INSTALL file
2919 about checking for global mh.profile.
2921 * Renamed m_find() to context_find().
2922 Renamed m_replace() to context_replace().
2923 Renamed m_delete() to context_del().
2924 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
2925 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
2926 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
2928 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
2929 adding message to folder itself.
2931 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
2932 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
2933 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
2936 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
2937 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
2940 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
2941 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
2942 is the same as the direct smtp code).
2944 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
2945 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
2947 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
2948 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
2949 code to use it yet).
2951 Thu Nov 13 18:42:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2953 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.
2955 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never
2956 called with a value larger than 30 mintues.
2958 * Fixed race condition in rmm and refile, so that
2959 context is updated before external rmmproc is called.
2961 * Removed all the OVERHEAD code.
2963 * Move code to add message to folder from refile.c
2966 Fri Jul 25 19:39:29 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2968 * Did some rearranging of the internals of inc.c.
2970 * Make -inplace the default for anno, forw, dist, and repl.
2972 * Changed --enable-smtp to --with-mts={smtp,sendmail}
2974 * Created new directory mts/sendmail for direct sendmail
2975 interface (although it currently still uses SMTP).
2977 * Removed all the TMA (trusted mail agent) code
2979 * Removed all the TTYD (terminal access daemon) code
2981 * Removed all the MF (uucp filtering) code.
2983 * Removed all the code for BERK.
2985 * Removed all the code for stand-alone delivery (MHMTS).
2987 * Split the file mts/sendmail/smail.c into sendmail.c and
2988 smtp.c. Changed the name of the directory to mts/smtp.
2990 * Changed autoconf to use @sysconfdir@ for location of
2991 configuration files.
2993 * Changed #define in mhn.c from FTP to BUILTIN_FTP.
2995 Mon Jul 21 03:22:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2997 * Released nmh-0.17.
2999 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
3001 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
3002 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
3004 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
3007 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
3008 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
3010 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
3011 number of refiled message.
3013 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
3015 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
3016 for return value of wait().
3018 * Change configure to also check /bin for "more".
3020 Sat Jul 12 00:02:23 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3022 * Released nmh-0.16.
3024 Mon Jun 23 20:13:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3026 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
3028 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
3029 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
3030 deal with binary messages, yet).
3032 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
3034 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
3036 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
3037 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
3038 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
3039 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
3040 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
3041 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
3043 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
3044 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
3046 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
3047 From MH-6.8.4 patch.
3049 * Fix double free of ctinfo in user_content when using
3050 #forw with single message. From John MacMillan (and
3053 * Changed -mhnproc switch for show, to -showmimeproc.
3055 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".
3057 * Added "mime" option to "whatnow", which calls the program
3058 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
3061 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
3064 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
3066 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
3067 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
3068 which used unsigned chars by default.
3070 Sat Jun 21 01:21:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3072 * Released nmh-0.15.
3074 * Added new form "scan.unseen" to distribution. It marks messages

3077 * Do some rearranging of date/time code in zotnet/tws/dtime.c
3079 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
3081 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
3084 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
3085 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
3086 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
3088 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
3089 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
3091 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
3093 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
3094 they conflict with defines on AIX.
3096 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
3097 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
3098 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
3099 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
3101 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
3102 and put in own subroutine.
3104 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
3105 and put in own subroutine.
3107 * Moved code to remove messages from folder into own
3108 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and
3109 refile.c to use new routine.
3111 Fri May 16 06:09:31 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3113 * Renamed m_seqok to seq_nameok.
3115 * Changed m_setunseen, msh, mshcmds, flist, and scan to use
3118 * Changed m_seqflag to return the number of a sequence rather
3119 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
3120 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
3122 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
3125 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before
3126 adding message to sequence.
3128 * Renamed function m_setvis to m_setunseen, and renamed
3129 corresponding file in sbr.
3131 * Renamed function m_setseq to m_setprev, and renamed corresponding
3134 * Changed mark.c and pick.c to use m_seqaddsel and m_seqdelsel.
3136 * Added new function m_seqdelsel to m_seqdel.c, which deletes
3137 all selected messages from a sequence.
3139 * Added new function m_seqaddsel to m_seqadd.c, which adds all
3140 selected messages to a sequence.
3142 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,
3145 Thu May 15 00:53:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3147 * Renamed function pack_folder to m_packfolder, and moved it
3148 from uip/folder.c into its own file sbr/m_packfolder.c
3150 Wed May 14 23:38:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3152 * Changed function m_gmsg to m_readfolder. Renamed file
3153 sbr/m_gmsg.c to sbr/m_readfolder.c.
3155 Mon May 5 19:57:11 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3157 * Expanded rcvtty man page, and added small patch from
3158 MH-6.8.4 distribution.

3165 own termcap buffer when passed a NULL argument.
3167 Sat Apr 26 03:46:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3169 * Added new options `-checkmime', `-nocheckmime', and `-mhnproc'
3170 to show. Restructured code to handle options to various
3171 `procs' better. Deprecated `-noshowproc' option and NOMHNPROC
3172 environment variable.
3174 * Added new man page `mh-draft' which documents the
3175 draft folder facility in nmh.
3177 * Renamed fmtsbr.h to fmt_scan.h. Renamed fmtcompile.h
3180 * split fmtsbr.c into fmt_scan.c and fmt_new.c. Renamed

3184 * `send -help' wasn't showing the -(no)mime and -split
3187 Fri Apr 25 02:50:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3189 * Released nmh-0.13.
3191 * Changed mhpath so it doesn't abort if a message sequence
3192 such as "mhpath all" expands to more than 1000 messages.
3193 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
3194 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
3197 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
3198 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
3200 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3202 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if
3203 necessary. So `folders' can now handle more than 300 folders.
3205 Tue Apr 22 14:01:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3207 * Change configure to use a compile check to see if the tm struct
3208 has tm_gmtoff, rather than using egrep.
3210 Mon Apr 21 02:19:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3212 * Released nmh-0.12.
3214 * Had set_exists and unset_exists macros backwards.

3220 * Added documentation to mh-profile.man about the various
3221 `procs' (mhlproc, showproc, lproc, etc...).
3223 * Replace the bit twiddling for SELECTED, UNSEEN, and
3224 mp->attrstats with macros.
3226 * If system doesn't have SIGEMT (like Linux), then use SIGTERM
3229 * Change fstat to stat in m_gmsg.c since Linux wants
3232 * Merge Linux patch sent in by Michel Oosterhof (original
3233 patch from bsa@kf8nh.wariat.org).
3235 * Document an undocumented MH feature. mhn -form mhl.null
3236 will suppress the display of the message header.
3238 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
3240 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c
3241 and mshcmds.c, rather than hard coding in /bin/cat.
3243 * Add mhnproc to the list of `procs' in mh-profile.man.
3245 * Add configure test for lorder and tsort commands.
3247 * Commented out the padding in the `msgs` struct in h/mh.h
3249 * Change m_gmsg.c to allocate elements to the `info' array by
3250 500 elements at a time (rather than MAXFOLDERS / 5).
3252 * Add note to man page for mhmail that zero length messages are
3253 not sent. Need to use -body "" to send empty messages.
3255 * zotnet/mts/mts.c : compare character with '\0', not NULL.
3257 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
3259 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
3260 folder/message structure when done with folder.
3262 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is
3263 defined even if message is missing "From " line.
3265 Mon Mar 31 03:37:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3267 * Released nmh-0.10.

3274 Thu Mar 20 03:21:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3276 * Reversed previous decision to retain "From " lines in slocal.
3277 The "From " line is now removed from all messages.
3279 * inc now saves the date from the "From " envelope in the
3280 Delivery-Date header for all messages.
3282 * sbr/m_getfld.c: Clean up processing of Return-Path and
3283 Delivery-Date from the "From " envelope.
3285 Mon Mar 17 19:03:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3287 * client.c: cast iaddr to int before comparing return value
3288 of inet_addr with NOTOK.
3290 Tue Mar 11 04:38:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3292 * Grep test for signal names was failing on some OS'es because
3293 of missing tabs in regex.
3295 Sat Mar 8 01:58:22 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3297 * Released nmh-0.09.
3299 * Move config files and format files to *.old before installing.
3301 * Add configure check for killpg.
3303 * msh.c: include <termios.h> instead of <termio.h> and
3306 * prompter.c: don't include <sys/ioctl.h> anymore.
3308 Thu Mar 6 04:03:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3310 * Added `-mime' and `-nomime' options to `repl'.
3313 Tue Mar 4 03:10:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3315 * ruserpass.c : removed conflicting prototypes.
3317 * rcvtty.c : Fixed rcvtty to obey terminal permissions granted
3318 by `mesg' command. Previously only worked on BSD machines.
3320 Mon Mar 3 00:18:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3322 * rcvtty.c : Changed to use #define UTMP_FILE (if exists) rather
3323 than hard coded "/etc/utmp".
3325 * Released nmh-0.08.
3327 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
3328 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of
3329 locking database itself.
3331 Thu Feb 27 05:28:09 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3333 * Added slocal action `mmdf' to deliver to a file in mmdf format.
3335 * Changed the slocal actions `file' and `>' to always deliver in
3336 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
3339 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
3340 rather than mmdf format.
3342 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
3343 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
3344 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
3345 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
3347 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
3349 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3351 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
3354 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
3355 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
3356 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
3358 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
3359 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
3360 rcvpack so you can choose the preferred format.
3362 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3364 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
3365 can still easily change this in config.h).
3367 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
3368 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
3369 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
3371 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3373 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather
3374 than tzset and external timezone variable.
3376 Thu Feb 13 00:35:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3378 * Fixed typo in ruserpass.c in the variable toktabs.
3380 * When ruserpass was added to LIBOBJS, it was missing
3383 * Released nmh-0.07.
3385 Tue Feb 11 01:29:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3387 * Add check to configure, so that if ruserpass, or _ruserpass
3388 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
3390 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
3391 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
3394 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
3395 built-in FTP client in mhn.
3397 * Added configure check for ushort and ulong. Change code
3398 to use ushort/ulong rather than u_short/u_long.
3400 * A couple of small cleanups in locking code.
3402 * Added configure check for gmtoff element in struct tm.
3404 * Added configure check for tzset.
3406 Fri Feb 7 03:01:57 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3408 * Released nmh-0.06.
3410 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
3411 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
3413 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
3414 many such machines around anymore.
3416 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
3417 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
3419 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
3420 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
3422 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3424 * Check lex generated file in zotnet/tws and use
3425 pre-generated version if necessary.
3427 * Released nmh-0.05.
3429 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
3430 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
3431 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
3432 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
3434 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
3435 be linked in one pass.
3437 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3439 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
3440 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
3442 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3444 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
3446 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3448 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
3449 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
3450 become the current folder.
3452 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3454 * Released nmh-0.04.
3456 * Define ospeed and PC in termsbr.c is OS doesn't have
3459 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3461 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
3462 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
3463 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
3465 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3467 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
3468 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
3470 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3472 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
3473 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
3476 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
3477 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
3479 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3481 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
3482 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
3483 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
3484 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
3485 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
3486 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
3488 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3490 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
3491 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
3493 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
3494 a file (currently need to specify full path).
3496 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3498 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
3499 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
3501 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3503 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
3504 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
3505 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
3507 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3509 * Released nmh-0.03.
3511 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
3512 .mh_sequence file existed.
3514 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
3515 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
3517 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
3518 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
3521 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3523 * Changed flist option -unseen to -[no]all. Cleaned up
3526 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3528 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
3529 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
3530 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
3532 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3534 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
3535 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
3536 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
3538 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3540 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL
3541 and allocate its own buffer. Borrowed from zsh.
3543 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
3545 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3547 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
3548 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
3549 directory from where the source code is located.
3551 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3553 * Released nmh-0.02.
3555 Wed Jan 1 17:41:52 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3557 * Split mhook man page into man pages for rcvdist, rcvpack,
3560 Tue Dec 31 03:07:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3562 * Changed code to use strerror, rather than using sys_errlist
3563 and sys_nerr directly.
3565 Mon Dec 30 02:15:25 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3567 * -compat switch from install-mh removed.
3569 * Changed the default POP port from "pop" to "pop3".
3571 Sat Dec 28 13:25:05 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3573 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
3574 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
3575 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
3576 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
3577 rather than in script.
3579 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3581 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
3583 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with
3584 macro defined on Solaris.
3586 Thu Dec 26 02:50:15 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3588 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
3589 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
3591 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
3592 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
3593 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
3594 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
3597 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3599 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
3600 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.
3602 * Fixed configure test so that termcap variable ospeed is
3605 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3607 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
3609 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included
3610 in mhn.c. Changed md5 to use memset and memcpy.
3612 Fri Dec 20 02:29:37 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3614 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
3615 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
3617 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3619 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
3620 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
3621 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
3622 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
3623 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
3624 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
3626 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3628 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
3630 * Released nmh-0.01.
3632 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
3633 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
3634 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
3637 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3639 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
3642 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3644 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
3645 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
3647 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3649 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
3650 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
3651 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
3652 script to find_program.
3654 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3656 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
3657 speed up -recurse option.
3659 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
3660 yet, but it compiles :-)
3662 * Changed default location for install to
3663 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
3664 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
3665 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
3668 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
3669 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
3670 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
