1 2009-12-29 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
3 * uip/new.c: cast folder_len to int to avoid warning on
4 64-bit about passing a size_t to an int conversion specifier.
6 2009-12-25 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
8 * uip/inc.c: gcc 4.4.1 noticed that maildir could have been
9 used before initialization. In fact, if that code was ever
10 reached, maildir would never have been initialized. It's in
11 an adios call, so replaced with NULL.
13 2009-12-21 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
15 * mts/smtp/smtp.c: In sm_auth_sasl (), removed zeroing of
16 sasl_inbuffer because it could be used in sm_fget (). Also,
17 removed allocation of sasl_inbuffer because that was done in
18 either smtp_init () or sendmail_init ().
20 2009-01-17 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
22 * etc/mhn.defaults.sh: Never try to make mhshow start xterm.
24 2009-01-16 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
26 * test/runtest, test/tests/inc/test-deb359167,
27 test/tests/inc/test-eom-align, test/tests/manpages/test-manpages:
28 Load common.sh via absolute path, otherwise some /bin/sh
29 (e.g. dash) can't load it.
31 * uip/Makefile.in, uip/new.c, test/tests/new/test-basic: Add new
32 program, and fn/fp/unseen symlinks.
34 * test/{runtest,setup-test}: Move MH profile under Mail directory
35 so each test script will have its own to muck with, if needed.
37 * h/Makefile.in, h/crawl_folders.h, sbr/Makefile.in,
38 sbr/crawl_folders.c, uip/folder.c: Extract the folder crawling
39 code from folder.c into new crawl_folders function, using a
40 callback to assemble the folder info in folder.c. Drop compare
41 function and use strcmp instead. Rename addfold and addir to
42 add_folder and add_children (add dir vs. add folder?
45 2008-12-26 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
47 * sbr/m_getfld.c: fix two bugs which could cause us to walk off
48 the beginning of the stdio or prefix-string buffer when checking
49 for presence of the end-of-message delimiter in some situations.
50 This might cause inc to dump core if you were unlucky. (This was
52 * test/tests/inc/{md5sums,msgheader.txt,test-deb359167,
53 test-eom-align,fromline.txt,filler.txt,deb359167.mbox}: new tests
54 both for the specific problem and to try to check various alignments
55 of the eom string with the stdio buffer ending.
56 * test/common.sh: new file for common utility functions for the
57 test scripts. Moved findprog out of manpage test script into this
58 new file. Added some functions for doing progress indicators.
60 2008-12-25 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
62 * test/runtest: automatically run setup-test if it hasn't already
63 been done. Improve error handling in test script with 'set -e'.
65 2008-10-23 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
67 * h/mh.h: raised NAMESZ from 128 to 999. RFC 2822 limits line
68 lengths to 998 characters, so a header name can be at most that long.
69 m_getfld limits header names to 2 less than NAMESZ, which is fine,
70 because header names must be followed by a colon. Add one for
73 2008-10-23 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
75 * sbr/m_getfld.c: in warning message, use NAMESZ-2 instead of
76 NAMESZ-1 bytes because the message says "exceeds", not
77 "is greater than or equal to".
79 2008-10-23 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
81 * docs/MAIL.FILTERING: added note on removing procmail -f or
82 -r options to try to suppress generation of a "From " line on
85 2008-08-14 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
87 * test/setup-test: Don't run autogen.sh unless needed. Build in a
88 blddir under the temporary directory so as not to interfere with
89 whatever the developer may be doing in the source directory.
90 If the temporary directory already exists, rebuild and install it.
92 2008-08-13 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
94 * sbr/ambigsw.c: Send print_sw output to stderr. This avoids
95 strange problems with scan `pick -bogus`, not to mention being
98 * sbr/getans.c, sbr/print_help.c, uip/msh.c: Send print_sw output
101 * h/prototypes.h, sbr/print_sw.c (print_sw): Add FILE * argument
102 and send output there rather than to stdout.
104 * test/tests/pick/test-stderr: Add test that error messages don't
105 end up going to stdout.
107 2008-08-13 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
109 * uip/pick.c: Print matching messages immediately, instead of
110 waiting until the very end to print anything.
111 Ensure valid sequence name as soon as we parse it from command,
112 instead of searching the messages first.
114 2008-08-13 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
116 * uip/Makefile.in, uip/popi.c: Remove popi.c, which has been dead
117 since PatchSet 257 (2000/06/12 11:07:34 UTC).
119 2008-08-13 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
121 * h/mhparse.h: Move interfaces also used by mhbuildsbr.c here
124 * uip/Makefile.in (mhbuild): Build with mhparse.o.
126 * uip/mhbuildsbr.c: Drop the duplication of mhparse.c.
128 * uip/mhbuild.c, uip/mhlist.c, uip/mhn.c, uip/mhshow.c,
129 uip/mhstore.c, uip/mhtest.c: Drop check swdeclaration, which is
132 * uip/mhparse.c: Move some declarations to mhparse.h, and remove
133 'static' from the definitions here.
134 (get_ctinfo): Take magic mhbuild support from mhbuildsbr.c's copy,
136 (incl_name_value, extract_name_value): Move from mhbuildsbr.c to
137 support get_ctinfo change).
138 (get_content, open7Bit): Add Content-Disposition support, added to
139 mhbuildsbr.c's copy in mhbuildsbr.c r1.12 (PatchSet 549).
140 (InitText): Default to CHARSET_UNSPECIFIED instead of "US-ASCII",
141 as mhbuildsbr.c's copy did. Explain termproc.
142 (openBase64, openQuoted, open7Bit): Fix comment from r1.5:
143 suffixes, not prefixes.
144 (openMail): Explain showproc.
146 * test/tests/mhshow/test-cte-binary: Add test for
147 Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary (Debian #136976).
149 * test/tests/mhbuild/test-forw: Add an mhbuild test, testing forw
150 with and without RFC-934 mode. More mhbuild tests would be nice.
152 2008-08-13 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
154 * test/tests/bad-input/test-header: Add test for it.
156 * sbr/m_getfld.c: If we reach the end of the line without finding
157 a ':' when parsing a header field, treat that line as the
158 beginning of the body rather than blowing up. These messages are
159 usually spam, but it's nice to be able to at least scan them.
161 2008-08-12 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
163 * test/tests/mhshow/test-qp: Test various valid and invalid
166 * uip/mhparse.c (openQuoted): Simplify the decode-or-show for loop by
167 peeking ahead to the next byte(s) when encountering '=', and just let
168 invalid escape sequences through as literals (fixes bug #15245).
170 2008-08-12 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
172 * autogen.sh (new file): add script for running the GNU
173 autotools in the right order
174 * INSTALL: mention that you need to run autogen.sh if you
176 * docs/README.developers: mention autogen.sh rather than
177 suggesting running autoheader and autoconf by hand.
178 * test/setup-test: run autotools via autogen.sh
180 2008-08-08 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
182 * sbr/discard.c, sbr/m_getfld.c, uip/scansbr.c: Add support for
183 DragonFlyBSD stdio (from NetBSD pkgsrc).
185 2008-08-05 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
187 * uip/folder.c: chdir(nmhdir) in main rather than in dodir, which
188 is called many times. Drop the chdir in get_folder_info, which
189 served no purpose at all. If struct stat has d_type (BSD), use
190 that to skip processing (strcmp, stat, and so on) of message
191 files, mostly undoing the slow-down from the last change.
193 * configure.in: Call CHECK_TYPE_STRUCT_DIRENT_D_TYPE.
195 * aclocal.m4: Add CHECK_TYPE_STRUCT_DIRENT_D_TYPE from
198 2008-08-04 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
200 * uip/folder.c: Simplify dodir/addir/addfold. Dump hacky
201 over-optimization in addir that tried to avoid readdir after all
202 child directories had been read; this was also trying to support
203 symlinks to directories, but would have been failing (because
204 nlink may have gone to 0 with symlinks to directories remaining)
205 had the lstat usage been correct (lstat doesn't fail for normal
206 directories; should have used S_ISLNK).
208 2008-08-03 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
210 * test/setup-test: use 'set -e' so we stop on compile failure.
211 Configure --enable-debug for convenience in debugging.
213 * uip/whatnowsbr.c: bug #23319: rework the way we handle the working
214 directory when invoking the user's shell, so that we don't have
215 issues when the cwd contains a space or shell special character.
216 * test/tests/whatnow/test-attach-detach, test/tests/whatnow/test-cd,
217 test/tests/whatnow/test-ls: test cases for this.
219 * sbr/fmt_compile.c: add 'do { ... } while (0)' wrappers
220 to various multi-statement macros to avoid nasty surprises
221 if the macros are used in if() clauses.
223 * bug #23436: man/scan.man, man/forw.man, man/inc.man,
224 man/mh-chart.man, man/mhmail.man, man/mhshow.man,
225 man/mhstore.man, man/msgchk.man, man/packf.man, man/scan.man:
226 fix minor syntax errors groff warns about.
227 * test/runtest, test/README: allow test cases to report
228 that they have been SKIPped as well as PASS/FAIL
229 * test/tests/manpages/test-manpages - new test which runs groff
230 on the manpages and checks that there are no warnings.
231 * test/runalltests: ignore editor backup files
233 2008-08-03 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
235 * etc/replcomps, etc/replgroupcomps: Trim trailing whitespace from
238 2008-08-03 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
240 * sbr/fmt_compile.c: when doing an if-test on the result
241 of a function which returns a string result, check whether
242 the string is non-empty (as the documentation says we do).
243 Previously we were always testing the integer 'value'. Bug
244 spotted by Eric Gillespie.
245 * test/tests/repl/test-if-str: test case for this bug
247 2008-07-24 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
249 * test/setup-test: Run 'make clean' before building
251 2008-07-24 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
253 * test/runtest: cat test-temp-dir only once. Destroy and create
254 test Mail hierarchy here, so each test has its own independent
257 * test/setup-test: Drop needless pushd/popd, which don't exist in
258 sh anyway. Don't use aclocal, which is part of automake.
259 Don't create Mail hierarchy here (see test/runtest).
261 * test/tests/folder/test-create, tests/folder/test-total: Drop
264 * tests/pick/test-pick: Remove failing no-op test.
266 * test/tests/scan/test-scan: Write expected and actual output to
267 files and diff them. This way, if the output differs, diff
268 provides the FAILing exit code and shows the differences.
270 2008-06-12 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
271 * man/repl.man, etc/mhl.reply:
272 Add an attribution line when replying to messages.
274 2008-06-02 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
276 * h/mh.h, h/prototypes.h, sbr/done.c, uip/inc.c,
277 uip/mhbuild.c, uip/mhlist.c, uip/mhn.c, uip/mhshow.c,
278 uip/mhstore.c, uip/mhtest.c, uip/packf.c, uip/pick.c,
279 uip/rcvdist.c, uip/rcvstore.c, uip/sendsbr.c: when
280 building on gcc, use the noreturn attribute on various
281 functions (should improve code and avoid some spurious
282 'uninitialized variable' warnings).
284 2008-06-01 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
286 * docs/README.developers: update the bits about doing a
287 release announcement, now I've actually done one.
289 2008-05-22 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
291 * uip/scansbr.c: don't use MB_CUR_MAX if we aren't compiled
292 with multibyte support.
294 * uip/whatnowsbr.c: factor out common code for writing ls
295 shell command, and make it do more sensible buffer length
296 checks. Also avoid relying on the return value of sprintf(),
297 as some old systems don't return number of characters written.
299 2008-05-21 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
301 * sbr/utils.c (mh_xrealloc): don't assume realloc() can
302 handle NULL pointers; some non-POSIX realloc()s can't.
304 * sbr/dtimep.lex: add some table size declarations for the
305 benefit of elderly lexes with small defaults.
307 2008-05-18 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
309 * sbr/addrsbr.c: removed "err" from conditional, because gcc
310 correctly warned that it would always evaluate as true. It's
311 the address of a static array.
313 2008-05-16 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
315 * sbr/Makefile.in, config/Makefile.in: Don't use $< in target rules
316 in makefiles, as POSIX says it's only defined in inference rules.
318 2008-05-13 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
320 * configure.in, INSTALL: if --enable-masquerade is not
321 specified to configure, enable all supported masquerade forms.
322 This allows users to masquerade with the default
323 configuration. That seems to be more worthwhile now than
324 trying to prevent users from using it, especially with
325 single-user installations or those where a user can edit
328 2008-05-04 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
330 * bug #23167: sbr/ruserpass.c (ruserpass): make bad permissions
331 on .netrc be an instantly fatal error. Previously we returned
332 an error value; however, no caller was checking it. So now
333 ruserpass() has a void return type.
335 * bug #23163: various minor fixes for the benefit of
336 older Unixes (specifically SunOS 4):
337 reintroduce strerror() substitute implementation
338 provide memmove() substitute implementation
340 * bug #23163: fix accidentally broken 'build outside
341 source directory' feature
343 * bug #23162: sbr/dtime.c: fix stray HAVE_TM_GMTOFF that
344 wasn't updated to the new macro name.
346 2008-04-30 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
348 * mts/smtp/smtp.c: provide a callback for SASL_CB_AUTHNAME
349 (fixes issue with SASL sending the wrong username in some
350 circumstances). Thanks to <der_wachtmeister@freenet.de>
353 2008-04-29 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
355 * Revert previous attempt at fix for SASL issue as it
356 is the wrong approach.
358 * Fix in correct manner, by making sm_rrecord() and thus
359 sm_hear() set the length of the reply string correctly
360 (the SASL libraries now care if you pass in the wrong
363 * Correct various places in smtp.c where the reply string
364 might not have been correctly NUL-terminated. Includes a
365 fix for a particularly nasty and long standing screwup
366 where the buffer length counting in smhear() was totally
367 broken for continued lines from the server.
369 2008-04-29 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
371 * Cope with sasl_decode64() returning SASL_CONTINUE, as
372 happens with newer sasl libraries and LOGIN auth.
374 2008-04-27 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
376 * Updated some of the 'how to do a release' documentation.
378 * Upped the VERSION string to '1.3-dev', since 1.3-RC1 has
381 2008-04-27 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
383 * Released nmh-1.3 RC1.
385 2008-04-11 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
387 * acconfig.h, configure.in, sbr/dtime.c, sbr/pidwait.c,
388 uip/mhshowsbr.c, uip/rcvtty.c, uip/slocal.c, uip/termsbr.c:
389 move most remaining macros out of acconfig.h which is an
390 obsolete feature of autoconf
392 2008-04-05 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
394 * bug #18655: fix use of admonish() for a fatal error (should
395 be adios(); only actual effect would be wrong exit code).
396 Thanks to Craig Leres for spotting this.
398 2008-04-05 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
400 * bug #20028 (Debian bug 399271): fix code assuming that pointer
401 differences were 32 bits -- thanks to Dean Gaudet for the patch.
403 2008-01-25 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
405 * uip/mhshowsbr.c (show_all_messages): Be more generous when parsing
408 2007-11-04 Joel Reicher <joel@panacea.null.org>
410 * Changed done() link overriding to function pointer. Return type
411 is now void so that exit() can be used as done() callback. Dead
412 code return from all done()s removed, with return 1 in main()
413 following done() (should never be reached).
415 2007-08-21 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
417 * Red Hat Bug #253342: inc.c, utils.c, utils.h: When inc is run with
418 the -silent flag, don't exit(1) for no apparent reason.
420 2007-03-12 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
422 * bug #18630, #18631, #18632, #18634: various patches from
423 Craig Leres fixing error message argument problems.
425 2007-03-12 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
427 * bug #15212: configure.in, acconfig.h: remove configure test for
428 broken AT&T vi. This test was broken (it was always returning
429 failure even for non-broken vi implementations) and
430 unfixable. Nobody should be using AT&T vi any more so I have
431 simply moved it back to being a setting you can put manually into
432 acconfig.h if you must.
434 2006-10-24 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
436 * uip/sendsbr.c: with attachformat values of 1 or 2, add
437 name= portion to Content-Type header. This makes them
438 consistent with attachformat value 0. And it allows mhstore
439 to use that (file)name when extracting attachments.
441 2006-08-26 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
443 * configure.in: If we're not using dotlocking, there is no need to set
446 2006-03-30 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
448 * uip/sendsbr.c: with attachformat values of 1 or 2, only
449 generate Content-Disposition headers for MIME attachments, not
450 for the message contents themselves. Microsoft Outlook Build
451 10.0.6626, at least, doesn't show the message contents if they
452 have Content-Disposition.
454 2006-03-09 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
456 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c (decode_rfc2047): Don't close the iconv descriptor
459 2006-03-08 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
461 * (mh_strcasecmp): Rename the private strcasecmp function to
462 mh_strcasecmp. This keeps the newer gnu linker happy.
464 2006-03-05 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
466 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c: don't try to malloc 0 bytes if an RFC2047
467 encoded block is empty
469 2006-03-04 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
471 * etc/Makefile.in: use INSTALL_SCRIPT to install scripts;
472 this allows INSTALL_PROGRAM to be set to 'install -s' so
473 binaries are stripped on installation. Apparently the BSDs
476 2006-02-25 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
478 * uip/sendsbr.c: replaced st_mtim with st_mtime, that's what
479 it should have been. Added #include of h/tws.h to pick up
482 2006-02-20 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
484 * h/mh.h, h/prototypes.h, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, uip/send.c,
485 uip/sendsbr.c, uip/viamail.c, uip/whatnowsbr.c, man/send.man:
486 added -attachformat switch to send, to support alternate MIME
487 header contents when using -attach. See send man page for
490 * man/mhbuild.man: wrapped one appearance of "Content-Disposition"
491 with quotes, to be consistent with others.
493 2006-02-20 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
495 * h/utils.h, sbr/utils.c, uip/flist.c, uip/folder.c: Move duplicate
496 function num_digits into utils.c
498 2006-02-19 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
500 * sbr/m_draft.c, sbr/utils.c, uip/folder.c, uip/inc.c,
501 uip/mhstoresbr.c, uip/popi.c, uip/refile.c: Add create_folder()
502 function, replacing duplicate code during folder creation.
504 2006-02-18 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
506 * h/mime.h, h/mhparse.h, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, uip/mhfree.c,
507 man/mhbuild.man, docs/TODO: added support for an optional
508 Content-Disposition header in mhbuild (only). Its contents
509 are supplied between {}, positioned after the optional [], in
510 a mhbuild directive. If the contents do not contain a
511 "filename=" parameter, and the directive has a filename, or
512 something else that ends with "name=", then that will be used
513 to add a "filename=" parameter to the header.
515 2006-02-12 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
517 * docs/TODO: added RFC2183 to reference of RFC1806 for
518 Content-Disposition header.
520 2006-01-31 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
522 * uip/mhbuild.c, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, man/mhbuild.man: added
523 -nocontentid switch, to disable generation of Content-ID:
524 header in MIME messages. (Also added -contentid for
525 symmetry.) The default configuration of Microsoft Outlook,
526 Build 10.0.3416 in particular, doesn't see attachments in
527 incoming messages if there are Content-ID headers, see
528 http://home.cwru.edu/~wrv/eudoraoutlookfix.html. This allows
529 users to easily accomodate that by adding
530 mhbuild: -nocontentid to their .mh_profile.
532 2006-01-29 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
534 * bug 4360: uip/replsbr.c: remove trailing newlines from components
535 to fix bug with spaces at the end of Subject/References in replies
537 2006-01-18 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
539 * configure.in: use AS_HELP_STRING for formatting help messages
541 * configure.in, sbr/fmt_scan.c: add autoconf magic to support
542 old systems that don't support multibyte character sets
544 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: fix bug with insertion of newline being wrong if
545 the num function was used at the end of the format buffer
547 2006-01-17 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
549 * uip/post.c, uip/spost.c: in make_bcc_file (), use same
550 logic as in finish_headers () to detect whether there is an
551 existing From: line in the draft. If draft_from masquerade
552 flag is enabled, this allows the From: to be obeyed in the
553 Bcc, instead of the old behavior of always replacing it with
556 2006-01-17 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
558 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: more robust multi-byte/column support for field
559 widths, restoring right justification feature
561 2006-01-16 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
563 * h/aliasbr.h, h/rcvmail.h, man/Makefile.in, man/slocal.man,
564 sbr/lock_file.c, uip/aliasbr.c, uip/dropsbr.c, uip/post.c,
565 uip/slocal.c, man/mh-mts.man: remove remnants of code for MMDF
567 * uip/scansbr.c: multiply buffer size by MB_CUR_MAX so multi-byte
570 2006-01-14 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
572 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: Turn the PUTSF macro into a function capable of
573 handling multi column characters.
575 2006-01-07 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
577 * Remove sbr/strerror.c -- strerror(3) is defined in C89.
579 2006-01-06 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
581 * patch #3968: Move the add() function from its own file (add.c) and
582 into utils.c. There was also a duplicate add() function in mf.c which
585 2006-01-02 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
587 * Remove sbr/pwd.c file, moving the pwd() function into sbr/utils.c.
589 2006-01-01 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
591 * patch #3967: Create a mh_xrealloc function to prevent mistakes when
594 2006-01-01 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
596 * patch #3966: Create a mh_xmalloc function to prevent mistakes when
599 2005-12-24 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
601 * Bug #15285: Don't use $< in target rules in makefiles, as POSIX
602 says it's only defined in inference rules. (BSD make was expanding
603 $< to the empty string in the rule for building sbr/dtimep.c, which
604 causes lex to apparently hang because it's reading from stdin.)
606 2005-12-24 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
608 * Completely redo db library checking -- we now check for working
609 (include file, library) pairs rather than checking for headers and
610 libraries separately. We also now provide --with-ndbm=lib and
611 --with-ndbmheader=header options to configure to handle situations
612 where configure's autodetection fails.
614 2005-12-21 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
616 * Fix stupid accidental dependence on a bash quirk in previous
617 configure script change.
619 2005-12-15 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
621 * Improve checking for Berkeley db libraries: configure should now
622 find a suitable library on systems with new gdbm where
623 compatibility functions are in the gdbm_compat library, and on
626 2005-12-13 Michael Forrest <mef@computer.org>
628 * Fedora Bug #163760: sbr/context_read.c (context_read): Ensure that
629 the context is only read once.
631 2005-12-12 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
633 * uip/sendsbr.c (annoaux): Fix the call to annotate() fixing a bug
634 which prevented repl from properly annotating messages.
636 2005-12-07 Jon Steinhart <nmh@fourwinds.com>
638 * Fixed a bug where anno -append put the headers in the wrong place
639 if applied to a message that didn't contain any headers.
641 * Added a special value of "all" to the -number option that causes
642 anno -delete to delete all matching components instead of just
645 * Added new -preserve and -nopreserve options. Using -preserve
646 retains the original last accessed and last modified times on
649 2005-12-05 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
651 * Fedora Bug #174983: configure.in: Fix the AC_PATH_PROG default when
652 vi isn't found during build.
654 2005-11-19 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
656 * bug #14977: sbr/context_read.c: special case an MHCONTEXT of
657 "/dev/null" and don't try to lock it.
659 * bug #9228, debian bug #146449: man/mh-profile.man: make it clearer
660 that lower case environment variables (and in particular mheditor)
661 are internal to nmh and not intended to be set by the user.
663 2005-11-09 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
665 * sbr/mf.c: fix buffer overrun with absurdly long addresses
666 (only causes crashes if scan is run with '-width 16536' or similar)
668 * bug #7917: sbr/context_foil.c, sbr/context_read.c,
669 sbr/context_save.c: mark 'no context' with NULL rather than
670 "/dev/null" so we don't inadvertently try to lock /dev/null (which
671 takes up to a minute in some locking configurations and makes post
674 * patch #3913: uip/post.c: pass some globals into sm_init() so that
675 it uses SASL if necessary. (This bug was preventing Bcc'd emails
676 from being sent via SASL authenticated SMTP.)
678 * bug #9813: uip/rmf.c: don't crash if there's no Current-Folder
679 entry in the context file.
681 2005-11-13 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
683 * bug #7833: uip/Makefile.in: remove link to install-mh that caused
684 problems on some systems
686 * bug #739: Makefile.in: install target now depends on all to avoid
687 problem on case-insensitive file systems with the INSTALL file
689 2005-11-10 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
691 * Fedora Bug #172838: configure.in: Fix the AC_PATH_PROG default when
692 sendmail isn't found during build.
694 2005-11-09 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
696 * h/aliasbr.h: fix a non-ANSI prototype.
698 2005-11-08 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
700 * Simon Burge: acconfig.h, configure.in, uip/rcvtty.c, uip/slocal.c:
701 fix to handle getutent() on NetBSD
703 * INSTALL, README, docs/README.about, man/nmh.man: update most
704 references to the web page and mailing list locations
706 * bug #10230: etc/Makefile.in, man/Makefile.in, uip/Makefile.in:
707 Michael De La Rue: prepend DESTDIR to install locations
709 * configure.in, */Makefile.in, mts/smtp/smtp.c: replace obsolete
712 2005-11-06 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
714 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, sbr/fmt_scan.c, h/prototypes.h: fix various
715 possible overruns of the buffers in fmt_scan() which would cause
716 crashes if scan was run with '-width 16536' or similar.
718 * uip/popsbr.c: fix compile error which only showed up if nmh
719 was configured with --enable-apop.
721 * Debian Bug# 245932, RedHat Bug# 172388: uip/mhparse.c: don't
722 crash when handling a multipart MIME message with an invalid
723 Content-Type header (file handle was being fclose()d twice).
725 * sbr/Makefile.in: adjust lex command to work on both old and
726 new versions of flex.
728 * configure.in: add an AC_PREREQ() so autoconf 2.13 gives a helpful
729 error message and the Debian autoconf-version-guessing wrapper
730 doesn't guess wrongly.
732 2005-11-02 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
734 * Debian Bug# 320069: Nick Rusnov: uip/popsbr.c: fail when
735 kpop connection attempted without KPOP support compiled in
737 * Debian Bug# 320090: Nick Rusnov: sbr/Makefile.in: fix for newer
738 version of flex and remove autogenerated file from cvs
740 * patch #1155: uip/flist.c: speed up flist by skipping stat on
741 files with numbers as names
743 * docs/Makefile.in: include new files in distribution
745 2005-10-11 Bill Wohler <wohler@newt.com>
747 * docs/FAQ: fold questions into MH FAQ and distribute that instead
749 2005-10-05 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
751 * Harald Geyer: h/mh.h, uip/replsbr.c: back out previous change
752 (fork/vfork) and replace with code that handles the issue directly
754 2005-05-18 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
756 * Debian Bug# 143485: Nick Rusnov: h/mh.h: use fork instead of
759 * Debian Bug# 261592: Harald Geyer: uip/mhlsbr.c, uip/replsbr.c:
760 test/report error writing to stdout
762 * mts/smtp/smtp.c, uip/popsbr.c: correct SASL include file locations
764 * docs/COMPLETION-BASH: bash completion definitions from Debian
766 * patch #2863: savannah@brisammon.fastmail.fm: sbr/folder_read.c:
767 fix a bug affecting AFS where nmh was setting the READONLY flag
768 for a folder even when you do have write access to the folder
770 * Carl Mummert: h/fmt_compile.h, man/mh-format.man,
771 sbr/fmt_compile.c, sbr/fmt_scan.c: add unquote() function for
772 removing quotes from RFC-2822 encoded headers
774 2005-02-23 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
776 * use iconv to convert RFC-2047 encoded headers to the
777 character set used by the current locale
779 * sbr/folder_read.c fix Debian bug #202667: crash when a
780 message's filename overflows an int when converted
782 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
783 versions (from automake 1.9.5)
785 2005-02-21 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
787 * sbr/getpass.c fix bug where inc crashed on failing to reopen
790 2005-01-27 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
792 * Added -proxy option to inc and msgchk. Based on old patch
793 from Michael Richardson.
795 * On systems where it is available, use nl_langinfo to get the
796 character set if MM_CHARSET is unset
798 2005-01-21 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
800 * sbr/check_charset.c US-ASCII is a subset of UTF-8 so can be
801 handled directly when UTF-8 is being used
803 2004-12-17 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
805 * uip/mhmisc.c Fix -part option to mhshow/mhlist/mhstore to
806 find sub-parts of the specified part
808 2004-11-19 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
810 * h/prototypes.h, sbr/folder_addmsg.c, uip/mhstoresbr.c,
811 uip/rcvstore.c, uip/refile.c: Added mail directory argument to
812 folder_addmsg in order to make it possible to provide a path to
813 the ext_hook call that is mailpath-based. A problem existed when
814 a folder was a symbolic link and the pwd call would return the
815 path relative to the filesystem, not to mailpath. A new argument
816 was needed because there was otherwise no reasonable way to get
819 2004-11-16 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
821 * sbr/folder_pack.c: Fixed problem where the refile hook was being
822 called after a message was renamed so that it wasn't around for
823 the hook. The hook is now called before the message file is
826 * sbr/folder_addmsg.c: Fixed wrong directory for hook when
827 refiling with -src option.
829 2004-10-15 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
831 * uip/sortm.c: Fixed calling of external hooks.
833 2004-10-12 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
835 * uip/inc.c: Fixed another weird bug caused by the static
836 mailpath being overwritten.
838 * uip/sendsbr.c: Fixed bug that caused anno to mangle headers.
840 * sbr/lock_file.c: Fixed strange bug that prevented a lock from
841 ever being obtained if getting it failed the first time. The
842 problem was that the string of XXXXXX that is required by
843 mkstemp() was overwritten the first time through, and so all
844 subsequent times failed because mkstemp() failed. The fix
845 reinitializes the tmp file string.
847 * uip/inc.c: Fixed bug in which the static maildir was overwritted
848 if a format string was read from the profile.
850 * sbr/folder_delmsgs.c: Fixed bug that was producing an incorrect
851 path for the external hook.
853 2003-10-06 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
855 * uip/slocal.c, configure.in: db configuration fix for Debian; yet
856 another location for ndbm.
858 2003-09-30 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
860 * Fix 'pick' so handling of options "-list" and "-seq" are
862 * Fix 'inc' realloc error when bringing in more than 100 msgs
864 * Patches submitted by Nick Rusnov from Debian archive applied:
867 136976 - Handle binary content messages
868 143427 - mh-format.man typo
869 144098 - 'spost; should have same behavior as 'post'
870 w.r.t. mts.conf masquerade line
871 149745 - slocal ignores 'N' result of previous command
872 152728 - increase SMTP timeouts to conform to RFC 1123
873 The timeouts suggested by the RFC seem long
874 to me - but the RFC is still listed as active.
875 181867 - typo for nmh.man
877 2003-08-10 Jeffrey C Honig <jch@honig.net>
879 * Fix problem where parsing of address/date fields in fmt_compile
880 is optimized to the first instance. The first instance may be in
881 contitional code which will result in cached data to
882 be used. Instead, convert c_flags to a flags field from a boolean
883 and parse on the first use.
884 * Remove some unused flag bits.
886 Fri Jul 01 22:02:00 2003 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
888 * Applied fixes for configuration problems with Solaris and
889 systems with gdbm instead of db1 (includes bug #2024)
891 #578 - repl leaks umask
892 #1393 - sortm core dumps
893 #1650 - msh leaks file descriptors
894 #1730 - Double free() in mhfree.c:free_encoding()
895 #3356 - In-Reply-To header in default replcomps should be
897 * Revised man page for mh-format (bug #2031)
898 * New replcomps, etc, with Fcc: +outbox in default versions
900 Sat Mar 17 03:18:15 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
902 * Ken Hornstein's configure.in Cyrus SASL checks were doing
903 `x"$with_cyrus_sasl" != "no"' instead of `... != x"no"'.
905 Tue Mar 06 21:04:27 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
907 * Found some historical information about MH in RFC 808.
908 Supplemented it with info from Jerry Peek's MH book and added it
909 to docs/README.about.
911 Tue Feb 6 20:35:40 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
913 * sbr/dtime.c Use the same Y2K correction code as dtimep.lex
915 * sbr/dtimep.lex Restrict the parser to accept either
916 a numerical timezone offset, or a symbolic one (e.g. EST),
917 but not both (Since "2000 -400 EDT" might cause a double
918 subtraction of 60 minutes if both are parsed. One should be
921 Mon Feb 05 20:22:54 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
923 * -L isn't sufficient for specifying the path of the Cyrus SASL
924 shared library. That'll allow us to link successfully, but on
925 many/most OSes that won't allow us to find libsasl at runtime. On
926 Solaris, we need to specify the library path with -R as well (or
927 else the user will have to use the $LD_LIBRARY_PATH kludge, which
928 is considered harmful). This fix should be extended to other OSes
931 * Print whether we have SASL support in the "nmh configuration"
932 summary configure prints out.
934 * Say in README.developers to use `\date' in case anyone is like
935 me and has `date' aliased in their shell to use a nonstandard (but
936 subjectively more readable) format.
938 Thu Jan 25 21:15:52 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
940 * man/mh-chart.man has updated synposes of
943 Tue Jan 23 20:26:15 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
945 * etc/digestcomps tried to force dates into a
946 19xx when it's not necessary.
948 Fri Jan 19 21:22:08 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
950 * First round of manpage updates finished. They
951 are standardized on -man macros, with minimal
954 * man/tmac.h.in is no longer needed, since the
955 manpages do not depend on them anymore. Note:
956 strict "man" programs that didn't allow ".so"
957 sourcing outside the man tree will now format
958 the man pages correctly.
960 * man/vmh.1 is no longer built, since uip/vmh isn't
962 Tue Jan 9 6:01:22 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
964 * Finished manpages ali-prev
966 * Removed deprecated files from the repository.
967 Specifically, those rooted in zotnet/ and mts/sendmail
968 mts/mmdf. "cvs update -dP" will give a pruned directory
971 * Updated docs/Makefile.in to include README.manpages, and
972 uip/Makefile.in to include popi.c (which isn't being built,
973 though). This allows "make nmhdist" to create an archive that
974 is file-for-file identical to the current cvs repository.
976 Sun Dec 31 20:48:50 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
978 * Create docs/README.manpages, which details
979 the formatting rules I've been using.
983 Sat Dec 30 9:50:13 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
985 * Created a new file "DATE" to hold the date
986 of the most recent nmh release. This date will be
987 used in the manpages.
989 * Updated docs/README.developers to add the step
990 of updating DATE. Also, updated configure to
991 read in the contents of the file as the variable
994 * Started work on updating man pages, with only
995 ali finished so far. Changes: 1) no dependence
996 on an external macro file, 2) uses only
997 -man macros (although I may be mistaken in this),
998 3) syntax in the SYNOPSIS is a little more
999 in line with standard UNIX documentation, such as
1000 bold flags and italicized parameters.
1002 Sun Dec 24 10:06:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1004 * Updated INSTALL with information about the
1005 --with-locking option.
1007 * Fixed the Hesiod tests in configure.in. In
1008 systems where res_send was in -lresolv, this
1009 information was not being communicated to the
1010 HESIOD_LIBS var. Now, if res_send is not found
1011 in the default libraries, it's assumed to be
1012 in -lresolv, and thus -lresolv is appended to
1013 HESIOD_LIBS, which will need that to avoid
1014 undefined symbols problems.
1016 * Fixed the Kerberos tests in configure.in. New
1017 versions of Kerberos 5 have renamed -lcrypto
1018 to -lk5crypto (circa krb5 1.1 or thereabouts). The
1019 new test tries to determine if -lk5crypto exists. If so,
1020 this is a new krb5 system. If not, test for -lcrypto
1021 and the rest of old krb5. If that fails, look
1022 for a genuine krb4 installation.
1024 Fri Dec 22 22:08:51 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1026 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in msgchk.man.
1027 -snoop was documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
1029 Fri Dec 22 23:42:16 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1031 * Made a new ./configure option called
1032 "--with-locking" that allows the file
1033 locking mechanism to be chosen there instead of
1034 requiring a manual edit of config.h.
1036 * If the option is not explicitly set, or an
1037 invalid option is specified, "dot" locking is
1038 chosen. Valid options are "dot", "fcntl",
1039 "flock", and "lockf". We need a way to tell
1040 the user that these are the valid options, and
1041 change the flag "--with-locking" if it's not
1044 Fri Dec 22 19:21:29 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1046 * Remove the lex-specific memory hints at the
1047 beginning of sbr/dtimep.lex. We've already
1048 committed to supporting flex only, since
1049 lex does not easily allow us to parse a single
1050 string, as well as other problems documented
1051 below and on nmh-workers.
1053 * Added a switch statement to configure.in to
1054 test for Mac OS X. If this is the case, LDFLAGS
1055 should not contain "-s" since the linker rejects
1058 * Updated MACHINES to include Mac OS X Public Beta,
1059 as well as Linux 2.4 running glibc 2.2.
1061 Wed Dec 20 16:00:46 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1063 * Marked deprecated directories in docs/README.developers
1064 as deprecated, with pointers to the new code location.
1065 Eventually these deprecated directories should go away.
1067 Tue Dec 19 19:16:37 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1069 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in inc.man. -snoop was
1070 documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
1072 Thu Dec 14 14:32:09 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1074 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
1075 versions on ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/config, dated
1076 12-07-00. This should prevent configure from failing
1077 on newer operating systems because config.{guess,sub}
1078 couldn't correctly identify them.
1080 Thu Dec 14 1:30:44 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1082 * Fixed the circular dependency created when I moved
1083 zotnet/mts to mts/generic and merged them into libmts.
1084 mts/generic/client.c and mts/generic/mts.c are now in sbr/
1085 (and thus in libmh), which makes libmh self-contained and
1086 not depending on an external archive.
1088 * All include statements now look for mts.h in h/. The
1089 Makefiles and configure script have been modified so that
1090 mts/generic is no longer built.
1092 Mon Dec 11 22:08:07 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1094 * When Shantonu made the new libmts.a, he swapped $(MTSLIB) and
1095 libmh.a in sbr/Makefile.in so that libmh.a comes first, but this
1096 causes the build to fail on Solaris, because libmts.a has to get
1097 ruserpass() out of libmh.a. Swapping them back to the way Ken
1098 Hornstein's patch (which I applied on Jul 20) put them, with
1099 libmh.a correctly coming second. If there are times when libmts.a
1100 needs to come second, then it would appear there's a circular
1101 dependency and someone (Shantonu?) did an mts merge incorrectly.
1103 Fri Sep 8 01:36:23 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1105 * Took out bad time textual time zones like BST and JST.
1106 I found them online somewhere, but am not sure if they're
1109 Fri Sep 8 00:36:48 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1111 * Moved zotnet/mts to mts/generic. This code reorganization
1112 makes the entire zotnet tree deprecated -- bboards is unneeded,
1113 mf was was moved to sbr, tws was rewritten and moved to sbr, and
1116 * Created a new static library called libmts.a used during
1117 compilation which includes the generic mts code and the
1118 smtp/sendmail code. This supercedes the functionality of the
1119 old libsmtp.a and the remains of libzot.a.
1121 * Updated header includes to reference the new location of mts.h
1122 in mts/generic/mts.h. Also, update the configure and top-level
1123 Makefile not to descend into zotnet. Also, they don't descend
1124 into mts/mmdf and mts/sendmail (the sendmail code has been
1125 merged into the smtp code).
1127 * Added #include <h/nmh.h> to h/md5.h, since my compile was
1128 complaining about implicitly-declared memcpy and memset, which
1129 appear to be in strings.h. In any event, nmh.h should take care
1132 * When doing a "make nmhdist", notice that the generated
1133 snapshot does not include zotnet of the mts directories as noted
1134 above. Since they are no longer compiled, and I don't see any
1135 obvious code path to get to them, end-users should probably
1136 not need them. If you think otherwise, turn Makefile generation
1137 back on in configure.in and turn on recursion into those dirs
1138 in the appropriate Makefile.in
1140 Wed Sep 6 22:40:03 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1142 * Tracked down the problem in the new dtimep where time
1143 zones were being radically misreported. It was because the
1144 parser knew about military time zones (such as M or E) but in
1145 some cases did not know about the textual representation of
1146 some zones (like MET). When it encountered one of these, the
1147 date parser misread MET as the military time zone T (well, first
1148 zone M, then E, and finally T). I took military zones out, and
1149 things seem much better. Also, the default behavior of parsing
1150 time zones appears to default to GMT in the absence of better
1151 info, which is less bogus than assuming the mail came from the
1152 current time zone, which was the behavior in 1.04.
1154 Thu Aug 10 13:22:13 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1156 * Decided that limiting the message number columns to 3 on my
1157 scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD (to try to regain space taken by
1158 extra date info) was ill-conceived. It's not that tough to get
1159 past 999 messages, though I imagine it's rather rare to exceed
1160 9999. Changed these to 4. Also put the "replied / encrypted"
1161 column back in YYYYMMDD -- I've never seen it show anything but a
1162 space, but that space is useful if you use scan, grep, and awk
1163 (with the default field separator) to grab message numbers (I know
1164 -- pick should really be used for these purposes...).
1166 Mon Aug 7 20:11:09 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1168 * Modify umask set by mhshow to enable user execute bit, so that
1169 viewers that create temporary directories (e.g., lynx) will be
1170 able to access them.
1172 Thu Aug 03 17:14:08 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1174 * TODO: Allow multiple simultaneous differing contexts, probably
1175 each tied to a parent (terminal) process.
1177 Tue Aug 1 10:48:05 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
1179 * Makefile install rules should not look for generated files in
1180 the source tree -- this will happen to work when configuring and
1181 building inside the source tree but will fail when using an
1182 external build tree. Fixed etc/Makefile.in.
1184 Mon Jul 24 16:20:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1186 * When Shantonu wrote the new, more portable dtimep.lex, he left
1187 out the #ifdef DSTXXX stuff for some reason. Not a good idea, as
1188 that code is required for proper printing of numeric-offset
1189 timezones that have daylight saving time. Without that code,
1190 -0700 during DST gets printed as MST instead of PDT.
1192 * Renamed DSTXXX as ADJUST_NUMERIC_ONLY_TZ_OFFSETS_WRT_DST and
1193 added an explanatory comment by its #definition.
1195 * Updated README.developers with the fact that zotnet/tws is going away.
1197 Thu Jul 20 20:30:52 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1199 * Moved Kimmo's new "--with-hash-backup" to be output with the
1200 rest of the --with options in the configure --help output. Also,
1201 people did not preserve my alphabetization of the --with options
1202 when they added new ones. Re-alphabetized.
1204 * One more pass at README.developers now that it's clear that my
1205 previously-suggested one-line autoconf-file commit can cause
1206 unnecessary local makes and an out-of-sync stamp-h.in file, but
1207 would not cause problems for other people using the CVS files.
1209 * Ken Hornstein's SASL patch was not integrated properly with
1210 Ruud's new merged mts/sendmail code. Kimmo has since fixed nmh so
1211 it compiles, but according to Ken, the SASL stuff still does not
1212 work. Integrating a patch from him for this.
1214 * Last pass at README.developers -- Kimmo's 5-step commit was
1215 overkill. You only need 3 steps, since configure.in is the only
1216 autoconf file with the RCS $Id keyword.
1218 * Applied Kurt J. Lidl <lidl@eng.us.uu.net>'s $MAILHOST patch:
1220 I have a small patch that would be nice to be included --
1221 basically, it allows the usage of the "MAILHOST" environment
1222 variable, without having to have HESIOD turned on. I need
1223 this functionality for my environment, where we have identical
1224 /usr/local on all my machines (so I cannot just hardcode into
1225 the mts.conf file), and I have multiple POP mail servers for
1228 Modified inc.man to reflect that along with "pophost:" and -host,
1229 $MAILHOST can now activate POP mail inclusion as well.
1231 * Fixed warnings from diff on first-time install of nmh. Also
1232 added 'echo's clarifying the etc file installation activities.
1234 Tue Jul 18 19:36:59 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
1236 * Added the answer to Dan's question in README.developers.
1238 Mon Jul 17 19:10:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1240 * Clarified and made some corrections to Kimmo's README.developers
1241 changes (BTW, if anyone can explain why the RCS Ids are able to cause
1242 problems with the dependencies, please fill in the explanation --
1243 I never encountered a problem with the old single-commit method).
1245 Sat Jul 15 23:13:49 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
1247 * Add configure option --with-hash-backup so the backup prefix can
1248 be easily changed from "," to "#".
1250 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that it works with any make.
1252 * Use mkstemp in sbr/lock_file.c.
1254 * Commits of autoconf-related files apparently can't all be done
1255 in one shot due to RCS Ids changing when committing -- updated
1258 Tue Jul 11 14:18:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1260 * Clarified post.man and send.man for those not completely up on
1261 SASL terminology. "SASL encryption layers are not supported for
1262 SMTP" means that encryption is supported for the authentication
1263 but not for the subsequent data stream.
1265 Sat Jul 8 01:36:19 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
1267 * Applied Ken Hornstein <kenh@cmf.nrl.navy.mil>'s patches
1268 implementing SASL support for POP3 and SMTP. If nmh is compiled
1269 with SASL support, using the -sasl switch on the inc, msgchk,
1270 post, and send commands will enable authentication encryption for
1271 SMTP, and both authentication and data stream encryption for POP3.
1273 Sat Jun 10 18:37:59 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1275 * Merged mts/sendmail functionality into mts/smtp; switching between
1276 smtp and sendmail delivery method is now controlled by mts.conf.
1278 * If tsort cannot deal with loops, in addition to defining tsort as
1279 cat, also define lorder as echo.
1281 * Removed uip/popi.c from list of sources.
1283 Thu Jun 08 19:36:57 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1285 * New dtimep.lex didn't parse day names properly. Fixed. Also
1286 clarified ambiguous comments preceding day_map[] array (from old
1287 dtimep.lex) that probably led to the erroneous cp++ being added.
1289 Wed Jun 7 20:52:33 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1291 * Added one more mkstemp invocation to uip/spost.c (which was in a
1294 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to clean up permissions handling
1295 and error handling in uip/inc.c.
1297 Mon Jun 5 22:10:07 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1299 * Use cat instead of tsort if tsort cannot deal with loops in its
1300 input (which is the case for tsort from GNU textutils).
1302 Mon Jun 5 21:14:36 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1304 * If lockfile is present, and its dotlockfile program is setgid,
1305 inc does not need to be setgid.
1307 Sun Jun 4 21:35:40 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1309 * Added autoconf test for Miquel van Smoorenburg's liblockfile
1310 library, as found on Debian systems.
1312 * Added liblockfile support to sbr/lock_file.c.
1314 Wed May 31 7:19:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1316 * Fixed up dtimep.lex a bit. Added back memory options for AIX to
1317 increase available memory. Took out %option noyywrap, which
1318 wasn't understood by AT&T lex, as well as the -i
1319 case-insensitivity flag.
1321 Wed May 31 07:40:45 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1323 * Added a lint target to the Makefiles and a check in autoconf
1324 to determine whether lint or lclint exists on the system.
1326 Fri May 30 19:21:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1328 * etc/Makefile.in was incorrectly installing mts.conf.in and
1329 sendfiles.in -- fixed. Generated sendfiles script was not a
1330 dependency of the `all' target, and was incorrectly included in
1331 the distribution. Changed the suffix for the backed-up previous
1332 versions of the etc files from the ambiguous .old to .prev. Added
1333 call to diff -- only keep the .prev files around if different from
1334 the newly-installed versions (intentionally didn't redirect output
1335 to /dev/null so you'll notice when your changed versions are
1336 getting moved aside).
1338 * INSTALL never documented the etc/*.old thing. Documented the
1339 new etc/*.prev thing (including a note to watch for diff output).
1341 * Applied Alec Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu>'s dropsbr.c patch:
1343 In the map_write routine, a call is made to map_open and this
1344 call is supposed to set the "clear" variable to 0 or 1,
1345 depending on whether the map file is empty or not. In
1346 mh6.8.3, this worked because map_open would set "clear" by
1347 calling the mbx_Xopen routine. In nmh, the code for mbx_Xopen
1348 was merged into mbx_open, but the interface for mbx_open
1349 doesn't support the clear variable, so that functionality was
1350 lost. The map_open interface still contains "int *clear" in
1351 the prototype, but never sets it.
1353 My patch eliminates "clear" from the map_open interface (I
1354 checked to make sure that map_write is the only client of
1355 map_open). Furthermore, my patch also sets the "clear"
1356 variable properly at the beginning of map_write by calling
1357 fstat(). This eliminates the bug in that the value of "clear"
1358 being used later in the routine was just stack garbage.
1360 Having a bad value of clear causes this next bug to be
1361 triggered: The fp file pointer was being opened with fdopen,
1362 but in two of the three switch cases it wasn't being closed.
1363 In certain cases, this was causing packf to run out of file
1364 descriptors if you attempted to pack a large folder.
1366 Mon May 29 7:48:15 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1368 * Moved the date parsing routines from zotnet/tws to sbr/ (and
1369 tws.h to h/). Updated all source files to reflect to new location
1372 * Rewrote dparsetime (in dtimep.lex -> dtimep.c) to replace the
1373 old zotnet/tws/dtimep.c, dtimep.lex, lexstring.c, lexedit.c, and
1374 dtimep.c-lexed. It should now work with flex (although untested
1375 with lex), and requires no sed-ing. For now, I have the lexed
1376 version in the distribution, so that end-users don't need to worry
1377 about running it through flex/lex. I have not added back support
1378 for guessing the time zone when it's not specified.
1380 Sun May 28 17:44:15 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1382 * Added autoconf check for getutent().
1384 * Changed uip/rcvtty.c and uip/slocal.c to use getutent() and
1385 friends. Since I can only check on Linux, please check if
1386 this works on other systems.
1388 Sun May 28 14:58:49 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1390 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to uip/scansbr.c for more
1391 checks for write failures.
1393 * Unlink temporary file properly in uip/rcvtty.c.
1395 * Moved viamail from bindir to libdir.
1397 * Changed sendfiles into sendfiles.in, so that path to viamail
1400 * Added gzip support to sendfiles.
1402 * Added References header to replcomps and replgroupcomps.
1404 Sun May 28 14:39:31 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1406 * Fixed m_getfld bug which caused segmentation faults when
1407 incorporating messages which ended in multiple linefeeds crossing
1410 Fri May 26 13:21:59 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1412 * msh has been unable to show MIME messages ever since 1.0. Alec
1413 Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu> tracked down the problem to the
1414 -show flag being passed to mhshow. mhshow is equivalent to the
1415 old mhn -show, so we don't need the -show anymore. Removed it.
1417 Fri May 12 02:51:21 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1419 * zotnet/bboards is not longer built by default. Goal is to move
1420 the assorted functions in zotnet into sbr or some more logical
1423 * Moved zotnet/mf to sbr, and changed mf.h references accordingly,
1424 as well as Makefiles.
1426 Thu May 11 02:21:34 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1428 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that both SRCS and OBJS aren't
1429 seperately and redundantly defined, but so that OBJS is a
1430 pattern-substituted version of SRCS with suffix .c -> .o. This
1431 should make maintainability easier.
1433 * Added section to MACHINES indicating what platforms nmh is known
1434 to compile and work on, just to give users peace of mind, or
1435 something. This is by no means complete or exhaustive, so add
1436 whatever you know works.
1438 Tue May 09 20:38:04 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1440 * Alphabetized Shantonu's $pop_kinds output on configure's "pop is
1441 enabled" line. If POP3 is the only kind of POP enabled, say so,
1442 rather than just saying "yes" (which is ambiguous).
1444 * Fixed four warnings in Shantonu's new getpass.c. Needed to
1445 #include <stdlib.h> for calloc(), <unistd.h> for ttyname(), and
1446 "h/mh.h" for adios(). Also changed ch from char to int to get rid
1447 of "comparison is always 1 due to limited range of data type" on EOF.
1449 * Added steps to README.developers saying to change the version
1450 number to X.Y.Z+dev. Did a little rearranging and changed the FTP
1451 dir from /home/ftp to /var/ftp to reflect Doug's new machine.
1453 * Changed configure.in to use gcc -Wall even without
1454 --enable-debug, to prevent developers compiling optimized from
1455 introducing warnings, and to give end-users a warm, fuzzy feeling
1456 as they (hopefully) see no warnings come out (except perhaps on
1457 the lex output file) even with -Wall.
1459 * Renamed getpass() to nmh_getpass() since the prototype for
1460 getpass() varies from OS to OS, and we want to _always_ use our
1461 version of the function. Fixed all the callers to use
1462 nmh_getpass() and added it to prototypes.h. Semi-arbitrarily
1463 upped MAX_PASSWORD_LEN from 128 to 256. buf was being calloc()'d
1464 and the memory leaked -- should have just been declared as static
1465 char array. Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the
1466 copyright message, as this version has been changed significantly
1467 from the BSD version.
1469 * Added "nmh-local functions to use in preference to OS versions"
1470 section to README.developers (currently just says to use
1471 nmh_getpass() instead of system getpass()).
1473 * Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the copyright message
1474 in ruserpass.c also.
1476 * Added mts.conf.5 page per Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s
1479 This happens on solaris:
1482 windex entry incorrect: mts.conf(5) not found.
1483 No manual entry for mts.conf.
1487 % echo ".so man5/mh-tailor.5" > mts.conf.5
1489 done in the man5 directory. We need to add 'mts.conf.5' as a
1490 reference sourcing mh-tailor.5.
1492 Mon May 08 23:51:55 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1494 * Doug informed me that the way I had restored the "lost" version
1495 histories was wrong, because `cvs checkout's of old versions of
1496 nmh wouldn't work properly. It occurs to me that this could be
1497 fixed by simply deleting those tags in the new-location *,v files,
1498 but oh well. I'm putting everything back to the way Doug
1499 originally had it. To get the old version history for a file that
1500 used to be in the top directory, you'll need to "blindly" do a
1501 `cvs log' there (even though you won't have a local copy of the
1502 file in that directory). `cvs diff' will no longer be able to
1503 diff pre-move versions vs. post-move versions -- you'll have to do
1504 a lot of manual gyrations with `cvs checkout' and then use `diff'.
1506 * I had alphabetized the --configure options in the --help output
1507 awhile back, but Shantonu added --enable-apop just under
1508 --enable-pop. Put it in alphabetical order and clarified what
1509 --enable-apop does vs. --enable-pop and --with-krb4. Also changed
1510 --with-mts help line from "mail transport agent" to "mail
1511 transport agent/service" so the 's' in "mts" doesn't seem to come
1514 * Added two steps to "releasing nmh" in README.developers. After
1515 making the tarball, it's a good idea to diff the tree vs. the CVS
1516 tree to make sure no files got left out, and then to chown the
1517 files so that they're owned by root, preventing a Trojaning attack
1518 by a malicious remote user with a UID matching yours.
1520 * Changed DIFFERENCES to say that RPOP is not currently supported
1521 rather than implying it by saying that APOP, KPOP, and POP[3] are.
1523 Sun May 07 18:16:43 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1525 * Imported NetBSD version of getpass() and made extensive
1526 revisions for compatibility with programs that pipe the password
1527 to stdin, such as exmh.
1529 * Removed tests for system ruserpass() which sometimes gave
1530 phantom positive results. Also, bext to use internal functions if
1531 we ever want to change .netrc format to something else, or access
1534 Sat May 06 08:28:09 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1536 * Restored lost version histories for those moved files by doing a
1537 manual `mv' in the CVSROOT on mhost. CVS badly needs a `cvs mv'
1538 command so that you can move files (without having physical access
1539 to the CVSROOT) without losing versioning. Put MACHINES back at
1540 the top level as it needs to be read before building. Fixed DIST
1541 variable in {.,docs}/Makefile.in to reflect that and to add
1542 missing entry for "INSTALL" file.
1544 Sat May 06 13:13:07 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1546 * Re-cleaned up nmh documentation (by moving things to docs
1547 subdir) and modified Makefile & configure.in to handle the change.
1549 Mon Apr 17 21:28:40 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1551 * Scott Blachowicz pointed out that the configure --help output
1552 for --enable-masquerade was misleading. Clarified.
1554 Mon Apr 17 19:01:00 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1556 * APOP support can be compiled in to inc and msgchk using
1559 * To access an APOP host, specify -apop on the command line
1560 along with any -host or -user option.
1562 Fri Apr 14 23:10:44 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1564 * Upped the version number to 1.0.4+dev until the next nmh release.
1566 * Added a "releasing nmh" section to README.developers, while the
1567 process was fresh in my mind.
1569 Fri Apr 14 18:21:34 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1571 * Added new files README.developers, ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6, and
1572 ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html to DIST target in Makefile.in.
1574 * Released nmh-1.0.4.
1576 Tue Apr 11 21:37:03 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1578 * Applied Brian Campbell <bacam@tardis.ed.ac.uk>'s mhn.defaults.sh
1581 It appears that there shouldn't be quotes around the %s in the
1582 iso-8859-1 charset entry; xterm passes the remaining arguments
1583 to the program, quoting them means that xterm thinks they're
1584 part of the program's name.
1586 This %s isn't the same as the "Insert content subtype" one from
1587 mhshow-show-* -- it doesn't come from MIME headers and is safe not
1590 Sun Apr 09 13:03:59 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1592 * added check in fmt_compile() to handle a single-character
1593 format string. fmt_compile() depends on having an array of
1594 format characters with an empty item at the end. A
1595 single-character format would cause programs using this
1596 function to segfault because the algorithm used to decide on
1597 the length of the array mistakenly created a single-item array
1598 when the format string was one character. This eventually
1599 caused problems when the program attempted to test item+1
1602 Thu Apr 06 21:53:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1604 * Richard Coleman threw out a lot of old MH-specific files in nmh.
1605 Much of the stuff, indeed, is not worth saving, but there are
1606 nuggets that are very worthwhile, and should probably be added
1607 back in. Most important, IMHO, are the MH change logs, as they
1608 can help answer questions like "Why is this code like this?" or
1609 "How long has this been broken?" or "What was this ever used for?"
1611 I've added a new file to the nmh tree called
1612 ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6. It's cobbled together from the
1613 mh-6.8.4/papers/mh*/MHCHANGES files. I've re-ordered the entries
1614 to go from newest at the top to oldest at the bottom to match the
1615 ChangeLog convention. Unfortunately there are no change logs for
1616 versions of MH prior to 3 in the MH tar files available at
1617 <ftp://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/mh>. Also, it appears to me that there
1618 are MH-6.6 changes that aren't documented in the logs.
1620 I've also added ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html. This is
1621 based on mh-6.8.4/papers/changes/mh-changes.ms. The nroff format
1622 and its "catman"-type output are a pain to deal with, but I was
1623 loath to throw away the formatting, so I converted the file to
1624 HTML. The only actual markup in the body are the "<B>" and "<U>"
1625 tags, and "<" and ">" instead of '<' and '>', so it's quite
1626 doable to view the file in plain ASCII mode as well. Note that
1627 some of the changes this file documents as having been made in
1628 MH-6.8.4 may not be present in nmh -- Richard started with 6.8.3
1629 and later put in certain 6.8.4 stuff.
1631 Wed Apr 05 21:09:28 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1633 * Applied Eric Schnoebelen <eric@cirr.com>'s mhshowsbr.c patch
1634 fixing apparent bugs in Dan Winship's new security quoting code:
1636 Since upgrading, I've been getting the following errors
1637 while attempting to process some MIME messages:
1639 (1) Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
1644 (2) line 1/10 (END)Segmentation fault (core dumped)
1646 (2) appears to be due to the testing of an unset pointer in
1647 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux(). (1) appears to be caused by
1648 mis-quoting a filename being handed to the shell in
1649 mhshowsbr.c:show_content_aux().
1651 Resolving the pointer reference issue in
1652 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux() turned up a similar mis-quoting
1653 problem in the routine.
1655 Tue Mar 28 16:17:39 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1657 * Applied Todd.Miller@courtesan.com's patch to dropsbr.c to
1658 prevent core dumping on packf. Here's the note from his message:
1660 Since sizeof(buffer) == sizeof(tmpbuffer) packf will dump
1661 core on a file w/o a From line with a line >= BUFSIZ.
1662 I noticed this because I had a junk file in my mail
1665 Fri Mar 17 11:59:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1667 * wesley.craig@umich.edu did not document his previous KPOP patch,
1668 so I did so, and asked him to check what I wrote. Unfortunately
1669 he didn't notice my misunderstanding of his patch. I wrote that
1670 if you #define POPSERVICE "kpop", inc and msgchk will use KPOP
1671 exclusively, but if you leave it as "pop3", you can use Wesley's
1672 new -kpop switch on a given invocation. Instead, however, -kpop
1673 turned out to be necessary on every invocation, and a KPOP user
1674 complained. Applied Wesley's new patch, which makes things work
1675 like I thought his original patch did. After that, did one more
1676 clarifying pass to the documentation in inc.man and msgchk.man.
1678 Wed Mar 15 18:45:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1680 * When I fixed the long-standing makedir() bugs in January, I had
1681 the code call strtoul(..., 0), which I believed to be safe as all
1682 modes specified as ASCII constants in the nmh code started with a
1683 leading zero (signifying octal), which I did as it would work if
1684 internal constants were ever changed to hex. Unfortunately I was
1685 unaware of the "Folder-Protect:" .mh_profile entry, which
1686 mh-profile.man documents as an octal-only constant, with no
1687 leading zero required. I've changed the strtoul() call to an
1688 atooi() call and removed the misleading leading zeroes on the
1689 ASCII octal constants in the code and man pages. Also changed the
1690 "Folder-Protect:" example in the man page to something more
1691 interesting than a duplication of the default.
1693 * When I added my --enable-masquerade option, you'll note that I
1694 didn't make it --enable-nmh-masquerade. I find the --enable-nmh-*
1695 options too wordy and I'm not sure why Richard went that route.
1696 I've renamed them to just --enable-*, but the old versions will
1697 still work as well (they just aren't advertised).
1699 * Added a line to the "nmh configuration" output saying whether
1702 * Added a new README.developers file. From the file:
1704 This file is intended to provide a few tips for anyone doing
1705 development on nmh. Developers who learn things "the hard
1706 way" about the nmh codebase (as opposed to local info best
1707 encoded in a comment) are encouraged to share their wisdom
1710 Currently the topics are "autoconf files" and "directory structure".
1712 Tue Mar 14 12:41:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1714 * Applied, after some finessing,
1715 Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s --with-smtpservers patch:
1717 Here's a patch that allows you to add
1719 --with-smtpservers=<some.host.name>
1721 to the ./configure command line to set the "servers: " line in
1722 etc/mts.conf. Around here, we use "mailhost" so that all
1723 machines in the current domain just talk to a central machine
1724 and nothing else runs an MTA. Now, I can use
1726 --with-smtpservers=mailhost
1728 instead of having to remember to fix this by hand (and often
1729 forgetting to do so!).
1731 * Inspired by Simon's patch, added an --enable-masquerade option
1732 to configure. It will set the "masquerade:" line of mts.conf.
1733 You may specify a subset of the three types of masquerading, like
1734 --enable-masquerade="draft_from mmailid", or leave off explicit
1735 arguments to enable all three types.
1737 * Alphabetized the --enable and --with options in configure.in and
1738 INSTALL and added documentation of the two new options to the latter.
1740 * Added new dependency for mts.conf: Makefile. If this isn't
1741 done, then when you reconfigure nmh with new values for
1742 --enable-masquerade or --with-smtpservers, you'll fail to get an
1743 updated copy of mts.conf.
1745 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtimep.lex patch:
1747 It seems that some MUA's didn't handle y2k very well - ELM
1748 seems to be one of them, and Ultrix's DXmail (based on MH!).
1749 I've got a few emails this month that look like:
1751 575 Jan 00 Xxxxxx Xxxx 3603 ...
1753 22+ Jan 00 Xxx Xxxxx 1771 ...
1755 The first has "15 Jan 100" as the date and the second has
1756 "19 Jan 00" as the date. The following works around this so
1757 that scan, show, sortm, etc work ok.
1759 I put Simon's patch under the control of a new #define called
1760 FIX_NON_Y2K_COMPLIANT_MUA_DATES. There's some commentary in
1761 acconfig.h about when you might not want to #define it.
1763 * Created new dtimep.c-lexed with Simon's change using dtimep.lex
1764 lexed on Solaris 2.6. Added missing dependency in
1765 zotnet/tws/Makefile.in for dtimep.c: dtimep.c-lexed.
1767 * Added scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD format files.
1769 Mon Mar 13 21:32:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1771 * Applied Sullivan N. Beck <sbeck@cise.ufl.edu>'s mhshow-suffix patch:
1773 With the patch below, you can add lines like:
1775 mhshow-suffix-application/msword: .doc
1776 mhshow-suffix-application/PostScript: .ps
1778 to the mhn.defaults file to append the given suffix to a
1779 scratch file. This allows applications which require a
1780 certain suffix to run properly.
1782 * Removed -force_html from lynx entry in mhn.defaults.sh (I
1783 believe older versions of lynx lack that option) and added
1784 "mhshow-suffix-text/html: .html".
1786 * Modified username_extension masquerading to only use the
1787 extended address on generated [Resent-]From: lines and SMTP
1788 envelope From:. With Neil's original implementation, nmh's global
1789 idea of the username was changed, which would result in inc lying
1790 and saying you had no new mail because it was looking for a
1791 mailbox called, for instance, "dan-nmh" (where username was "dan"
1792 and $USERNAME_EXTENSION was "-nmh").
1794 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtime.c patch:
1796 There's a wrap-around problem that affects the implementation
1797 of Zeller's congruence in dtime.c. This causes the day-of-week
1798 calculations to fail for dates after Feb 29, 2000 (probably up
1799 until some year far in the future).
1801 Mon Mar 06 12:20:20 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1803 * Applied Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s msh.c patch:
1805 I finally tracked down the problem in msh that was causing
1806 errors whenever I tried to examine a 'mmdf' style mailbox.
1808 It turns out that not enough memory was being allocated with
1809 calloc(), causing memory pointers to be overwritten and
1812 Fri Mar 03 16:07:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1814 * Changed the new "plussed_user" option to mts.conf's
1815 "masquerade:" to "username_extension" after getting feedback from
1816 qmail users, who use '-' as a separator rather than '+'. Removed
1817 checking of $USERPLUS variable. Now check $USERNAME_EXTENSION,
1818 which needs to include the appropriate separator for your MTA
1819 ('-', '+', or whatever) as its first character.
1821 Thu Mar 02 23:04:30 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1823 * Added a new "boolean" type to mh.h and TRUE and FALSE constants.
1825 * Added a note to DIFFERENCES stating that it's out-of-date
1826 (Richard was the last one to update it) and that we should
1827 consider only documenting incompatibilities with MH there.
1829 * Implemented (and documented) a third kind of username
1830 masquerading: "plussed user" masquerading. This one was suggested
1831 by Neil Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>. It's based on sendmail's
1832 "plussed user" feature, where mail sent to <user>+<string> will be
1833 delivered to <user>. When it's enabled, it's controlled by the
1834 $USERPLUS environment variable. How is it enabled? Well, that
1837 * Renamed the "mmailid:" setting in mts.conf to "masquerade:", and
1838 changed it so that rather than being a boolean, it can be set to
1839 any combination of the three values "draft_from", "mmailid", and
1840 "plussed_user". Thus it is now possible to enable the three types
1841 of masquerading individually.
1843 * Fixed a bug with "mmailid" masquerading (dating back to MH?)
1844 where if it was turned on, ','s would no longer be considered
1845 GECOS field delimiters.
1847 Wed Mar 01 23:30:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1849 * Changed the GECOS-field '&' translation behavior to be
1850 controlled by the BSD42 #define rather than GCOS_HACK, since it's
1851 apparently always appropriate on OSes where BSD42 is #defined, and
1852 never appropriate on any other OSes. Thanks to Kimmo Suominen for
1853 responding to my "What is this code here for?" comment in mts.c
1854 and explaining the feature.
1856 Mon Feb 28 21:50:29 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1858 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3+dev (ideally this should be
1859 done by whoever makes a release tar file, immediately after doing
1862 * Applied Paul Fox <pgf-spam@foxharp.boston.ma.us>'s scansbr.c
1863 patch, posted to comp.mail.mh, which he says prevents loss of mail
1864 when inc'ing into a full filesystem.
1866 * Changed "echo > stamp-h.in" in Makefile.in to "date > stamp-h.in"
1867 so that stamp-h.in will be different each time configure.in and
1868 related files are changed, making it easier to check it in (which
1869 is necessary to prevent unnecessary autoconf calls).
1871 * My declaration of initgroups() in slocal.c to eliminate the "no
1872 prototype" warning wasn't portable (FreeBSD 3.[23] choked). Now
1873 use AC_EGREP_HEADER to see where initgroups() is declared, if
1876 Sun Feb 20 12:17:15 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1878 * Fix security hole in mhshowsbr.c which allowed untrusted shell
1879 code to be executed.
1881 * Released nmh 1.0.3.
1883 Thu Feb 10 10:54:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1885 * Oops. %-escapes on mhstore lines in mhn.defaults.sh should not
1886 be surrounded by single quotes, as a shell is not spawned when
1887 just saving files, and the filenames will end up with literal
1888 quotes embedded in them.
1890 Fri Feb 04 12:29:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1892 * Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
1893 got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
1894 the -help output. One theory is that they were making reference
1895 to the fact that clearly you know about the -help option since
1896 you're currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea
1897 to overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
1898 supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
1901 The other theory is that because you can say something like
1902 "mhstore -" and get "mhstore: - ambiguous. It matches" followed
1903 by the same list of switches you get with -help, they were saying
1904 you can "sorta" abbreviate "-help" as "-". You don't get the
1905 "Usage:" string, though, so it's not really the same thing.
1907 Thu Feb 03 17:52:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1909 * Applied wesley.craig@umich.edu's KPOP patches. According to him:
1911 The following patch fixes a problem with requesting a
1912 service key for a machine that has multiple 'A' records. It
1913 also makes "-kpop" a command line option, for users who
1914 would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".
1916 Did no testing of the new features, as I don't have access to a
1919 * Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
1921 * Modified INSTALL and config.h.in to reflect the new -kpop feature.
1923 Fri Jan 28 17:39:24 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1925 * All %-escapes in mhn.defaults that actually expand to something
1926 should be surrounded by single quotes. Added quotes to the ones
1927 in mhn.defaults.sh that were missing them.
1929 * Added check for lynx to write mhshow-show-text/html line in
1932 Thu Jan 27 12:22:25 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1934 * makedir() had multiple bugs dating back to MH. An octal
1935 constant was apparently being interpreted as decimal, resulting in
1936 directories with no user read or execute permissions, making
1937 nested directory creation fail. And there wasn't even an
1938 _attempt_ to set desired permissions (e.g. from "Folder-Protect:"
1939 in .mh_profile) on the outer directories of a nested directory.
1941 * A second `make install' would always fail because the check for
1942 whether mh_profile.5 existed was written incorrectly.
1944 Wed Jan 26 02:22:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1946 * Added documentation on both types of masquerading to post's man
1949 Tue Jan 25 22:58:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1951 * Doug's portability fix of my setgid inc autodetection had a
1952 caching bug -- if you re-ran configure, uip/Makefile would be
1953 corrupted, and installation would bomb out on OSes where inc needs
1956 * Implemented a new kind of email address masquerading. Usually,
1957 when a user writes a custom "From:" header in a draft, nmh uses it
1958 rather than generating one. However, the user's true address is
1959 used in the SMTP envelope "From:" and is revealed in the "Sender:"
1960 header. Now, when mmailid is set to non-zero, the envelope
1961 "From:" uses the address specified in the draft "From:" header,
1962 and there is no "Sender:" header. This is useful when sending on
1963 behalf of a remote POP3 account or when remote mail robots
1964 incorrectly use the envelope "From:" in preference to the body
1965 "From:". This processing has only been implemented for post, not
1966 for the undocumented spost (which was already missing some "From:"
1967 processing that post has).
1969 Mon Jan 24 22:26:06 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1971 * Got rid of the rest of the gcc -Wall warnings that I didn't have
1972 time for on 1999-07-15 (and, it would seem, some new ones people
1973 introduced since then). The primary ones were the warnings that
1974 default prototypes were being used for [v]snprintf() and
1975 str[n]casecmp(). As of right now, there are _no_ compilation
1976 warnings except on dtimep.c-lexed (at least under AIX 4.1.5 and
1979 Sun Jan 2 23:42:18 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1981 * Move mhtest from bindir to libdir.
1983 * Move sendfiles from libdir to bindir.
1985 * Updated sendfiles manpage to reflect this change.
1987 * Added documentation for -build and -file switches to repl and
1988 forw manpages (patch from Peter Maydell).
1990 * Fixed interaction between specifying -cc in profile and -group on
1993 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1995 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
1996 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
1997 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
2000 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
2002 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
2003 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
2004 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
2005 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
2006 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
2007 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).
2009 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2011 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
2013 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2015 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
2016 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
2017 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
2018 caught again. This works for now.
2020 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
2022 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2024 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
2025 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
2027 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
2029 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
2030 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
2032 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
2034 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
2036 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2038 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
2039 changes. Both need more cleanup.
2041 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2043 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
2044 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
2045 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
2046 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
2047 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
2050 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2052 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
2053 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
2054 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
2056 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
2057 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
2060 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
2062 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
2063 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
2064 to a directory on another device with more free space.
2066 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
2068 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
2069 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
2071 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
2073 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
2076 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
2077 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
2079 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
2080 macros, regardless of platform.
2082 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
2083 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
2085 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
2086 with x-conversions=gzip.
2088 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2090 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
2093 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
2094 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
2095 implicit definition of ioctl().
2097 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
2098 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
2099 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
2100 want to mess with them.
2102 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2104 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
2105 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
2107 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
2108 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
2110 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
2111 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
2112 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
2114 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
2115 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
2116 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
2118 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
2119 function initgroups.
2121 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
2124 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
2125 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
2128 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
2129 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
2132 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
2133 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
2137 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2139 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
2140 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
2141 preventing compilation on at least linux.
2143 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
2144 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
2146 Thu Sep 09 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2148 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
2150 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
2151 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
2152 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
2153 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
2155 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
2156 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
2158 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
2160 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
2162 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
2164 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
2165 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
2167 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
2169 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
2170 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
2172 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
2173 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
2174 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
2175 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
2177 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
2178 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
2180 Sat Jun 09 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2182 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
2183 substitute it for mktemp if available.
2185 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2187 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
2188 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
2191 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
2193 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
2195 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
2197 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
2198 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
2200 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
2201 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
2202 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
2204 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
2205 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
2206 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
2208 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
2209 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
2210 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
2212 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
2213 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
2216 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
2217 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
2219 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
2220 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
2222 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
2223 <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
2225 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
2226 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
2227 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
2229 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
2230 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
2232 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
2233 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
2234 <elleron@servtech.com>.
2236 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
2237 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
2240 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
2241 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
2243 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
2244 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
2245 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
2246 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
2248 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
2249 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
2251 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2255 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
2256 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
2257 would not be changed.
2259 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
2260 one from the Apache web server.
2262 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
2263 (this should have been done a long time ago).
2265 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
2266 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
2267 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
2269 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
2271 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
2273 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
2274 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
2277 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
2278 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
2279 removes a bad race condition.
2281 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
2284 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
2285 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
2286 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
2288 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
2289 sequence information.
2291 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
2292 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
2294 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
2297 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
2300 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
2302 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
2303 interpret 034 as octal.
2305 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
2307 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
2308 mhstore, and mhbuild.
2310 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
2311 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
2313 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
2314 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
2316 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
2317 in the c_cefile structure when building.
2319 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
2320 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
2322 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
2323 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
2324 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
2326 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
2327 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
2328 and mhshow. Updated man pages
2330 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
2332 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
2334 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
2335 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
2338 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
2340 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
2341 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
2343 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
2344 header field information.
2346 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
2347 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
2349 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
2350 values when parsing a content.
2352 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
2353 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
2355 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
2356 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
2358 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
2359 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
2361 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
2362 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
2364 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
2366 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
2368 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
2370 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
2372 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
2373 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
2376 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
2377 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
2379 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
2380 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
2381 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
2382 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
2383 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
2384 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
2387 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
2389 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
2390 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
2391 buffer length checks for this parameter.
2393 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
2394 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
2396 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
2398 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
2399 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
2400 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
2401 of the limits on the length of command lines.
2403 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
2404 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
2407 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
2408 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
2409 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
2410 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
2413 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2415 * Released nmh-0.27.
2417 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
2418 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
2420 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
2421 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
2422 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
2423 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
2426 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
2427 mhbuild returns an error.
2429 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
2430 rename the draft file.
2432 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
2433 use a global variable.
2435 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
2436 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
2438 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
2439 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
2441 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
2442 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
2443 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
2445 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
2446 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
2448 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
2449 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
2452 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
2453 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
2456 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
2457 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
2459 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
2460 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
2461 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
2463 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
2464 to new function output_content_folder.
2466 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
2467 new function output_content_file.
2469 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
2470 to new function parse_format_string.
2472 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
2473 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
2474 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
2475 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
2477 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
2478 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
2479 message/external file from ftp.
2481 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
2482 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
2483 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
2485 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
2486 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
2489 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
2492 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
2493 new file mhstoresbr.c
2495 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
2498 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
2499 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
2501 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
2502 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
2504 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
2505 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
2506 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
2508 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
2510 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
2512 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
2513 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
2516 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
2517 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
2519 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
2522 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
2524 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2526 * Released nmh-0.26.
2528 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
2529 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
2530 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
2531 is still the same (dashstuffing).
2533 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
2534 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
2535 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
2536 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
2537 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
2539 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
2540 But it is not on by default.
2542 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
2543 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
2545 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
2547 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
2549 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
2551 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
2553 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
2554 number of the "cur" message when packing.
2556 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2558 * Released nmh-0.25.
2560 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
2561 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
2562 uses the original name of the library.
2564 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
2565 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
2568 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
2569 list_content and list_debug.
2571 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
2573 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
2574 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.
2576 1998-02-27 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2578 * Released nmh-0.24.
2580 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
2582 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
2583 are given, that order doesn't matter.
2585 * Fix bug in seq_list.c when realloc'ing for
2586 large sequence line.
2588 1998-02-23 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2590 * Released nmh-0.23.
2592 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
2594 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
2595 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan
2596 content, decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary
2597 string). I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
2599 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
2600 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
2603 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
2605 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
2607 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
2609 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
2610 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
2612 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
2613 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.
2615 * Add note to MACHINES file that on Linux, configure
2616 doesn't find the functions sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
2618 * Fix configuration for machines that don't have (or find)
2619 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
2621 1998-02-11 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2623 * Released nmh-0.22.
2625 * Add a configure check for sigsetjmp. Add some conditional
2626 #define's in h/signals.h in case it's not found.
2628 * Added additional notes about -auto switch in mhn man page.
2630 * Added note about MM_CHARSET environment variable to
2631 mh-profile(5) man page.
2633 * Fix signal problem in mhn.c (change setjmp/longjmp to
2634 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp).
2636 1998-02-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2638 * Released nmh-0.22-pre1.
2640 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
2641 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
2643 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
2645 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
2646 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
2647 entry point for parsing MIME files.
2649 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
2650 source message on the standard input.
2652 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
2654 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
2655 rather than -rfc934mode.
2657 * Fix mhbuild, so that Content-Description and RFC-822 comments
2658 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
2661 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
2662 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).
2664 * Restore HP specific code to zotnet/tws/lexstring.c. Apparently
2667 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2669 * Released nmh-0.21.
2671 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
2672 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.
2674 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what transfer
2677 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what character set
2678 to use for text contents.
2680 * Removed old hpux specific code from zotnet/tws/lexstring.c
2682 1998-02-02 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2684 * Released nmh-0.21-pre2.
2686 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
2688 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
2689 header fields as per RFC-2047.
2691 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
2692 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
2693 spaces between encoded word are.
2695 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
2697 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
2698 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
2700 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
2701 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
2702 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
2704 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
2706 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
2707 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
2709 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.
2711 * Added support for %(decode) to fmtdump.c.
2713 * check_charset() now accepts US-ASCII as a subset of any
2714 ISO-8859-X character set.
2716 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
2719 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
2720 permissions, not write permissions.
2722 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
2723 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
2725 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
2728 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2730 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
2732 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
2733 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
2735 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
2736 message contains valid character set.
2738 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
2739 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
2741 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
2742 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
2744 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
2745 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
2746 between an encoded word and normal text.
2748 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
2749 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
2751 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
2752 as a RFC-2047 header field.
2754 * The command install-mh now recognizes the switches -version
2757 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
2758 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
2761 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
2762 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
2764 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
2765 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
2767 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
2769 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2771 * Released nmh-0.20.
2773 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
2775 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.
2777 * Changed the default format file for mhl (mhl.format) to
2778 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
2779 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
2781 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
2782 and the To: line was missing.
2784 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
2786 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2788 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
2790 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
2791 watch the POP transaction.
2793 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
2794 first, and use it if available.
2796 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
2797 first, and use it if available.
2799 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2801 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
2803 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
2804 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
2805 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
2808 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
2809 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
2810 returns the state FLDPLUS.
2812 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
2813 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
2816 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
2818 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
2819 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
2821 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
2823 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
2824 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
2826 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
2827 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
2828 message to which you are replying.
2830 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
2831 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
2832 making group replies.
2834 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
2836 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2838 * Released nmh-0.19.
2840 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
2841 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
2843 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
2844 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
2845 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
2846 to the end of the man page.
2848 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
2849 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
2850 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
2851 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
2852 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
2853 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
2855 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
2858 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
2859 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
2860 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
2862 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
2863 the next available number above the message number you wish
2866 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
2867 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
2869 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
2870 file sbr/seq_print.c
2872 * flist will now update the current folder.
2874 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
2875 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
2876 but now undocumented.
2878 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
2881 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
2882 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
2884 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
2886 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
2887 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
2889 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2891 * Released nmh-0.18.
2893 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
2894 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
2895 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
2897 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
2898 retains the public/private status of sequences.
2900 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
2901 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
2902 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
2903 previous public/private status.
2905 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
2908 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
2911 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
2912 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
2913 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
2915 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
2916 take option to determine whether it should get current
2917 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
2918 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
2920 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
2922 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
2923 wait for stopped processes.
2925 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
2926 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
2928 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2930 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
2932 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
2933 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
2935 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
2936 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
2938 * Change the way that memory for message status is
2939 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
2940 the folder/message structure. This required changing
2941 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
2943 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
2946 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
2949 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
2951 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
2952 the debugging output.
2954 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
2955 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
2957 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2959 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
2961 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
2962 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
2964 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
2966 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
2967 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
2968 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
2969 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
2970 in the given sequence.
2972 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
2973 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
2974 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
2975 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
2976 subdirectories of a given directory.
2978 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
2979 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
2980 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
2982 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
2983 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
2985 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
2987 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
2990 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
2991 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
2992 fields are now calculated at runtime.
2994 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
2995 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
2996 are calculated at runtime.
2998 Sun Nov 30 19:14:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3000 * Released nmh-0.18-pre2.
3002 * Add paragraph to man page for install-mh and to INSTALL file
3003 about checking for global mh.profile.
3005 * Renamed m_find() to context_find().
3006 Renamed m_replace() to context_replace().
3007 Renamed m_delete() to context_del().
3008 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
3009 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
3010 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
3012 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
3013 adding message to folder itself.
3015 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
3016 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
3017 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
3020 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
3021 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
3024 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
3025 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
3026 is the same as the direct smtp code).
3028 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
3029 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
3031 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
3032 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
3033 code to use it yet).
3035 Thu Nov 13 18:42:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3037 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.
3039 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never
3040 called with a value larger than 30 mintues.
3042 * Fixed race condition in rmm and refile, so that
3043 context is updated before external rmmproc is called.
3045 * Removed all the OVERHEAD code.
3047 * Move code to add message to folder from refile.c
3050 Fri Jul 25 19:39:29 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3052 * Did some rearranging of the internals of inc.c.
3054 * Make -inplace the default for anno, forw, dist, and repl.
3056 * Changed --enable-smtp to --with-mts={smtp,sendmail}
3058 * Created new directory mts/sendmail for direct sendmail
3059 interface (although it currently still uses SMTP).
3061 * Removed all the TMA (trusted mail agent) code
3063 * Removed all the TTYD (terminal access daemon) code
3065 * Removed all the MF (uucp filtering) code.
3067 * Removed all the code for BERK.
3069 * Removed all the code for stand-alone delivery (MHMTS).
3071 * Split the file mts/sendmail/smail.c into sendmail.c and
3072 smtp.c. Changed the name of the directory to mts/smtp.
3074 * Changed autoconf to use @sysconfdir@ for location of
3075 configuration files.
3077 * Changed #define in mhn.c from FTP to BUILTIN_FTP.
3079 Mon Jul 21 03:22:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3081 * Released nmh-0.17.
3083 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
3085 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
3086 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
3088 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
3091 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
3092 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
3094 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
3095 number of refiled message.
3097 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
3099 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
3100 for return value of wait().
3102 * Change configure to also check /bin for "more".
3104 Sat Jul 12 00:02:23 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3106 * Released nmh-0.16.
3108 Mon Jun 23 20:13:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3110 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
3112 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
3113 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
3114 deal with binary messages, yet).
3116 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
3118 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
3120 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
3121 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
3122 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
3123 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
3124 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
3125 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
3127 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
3128 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
3130 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
3131 From MH-6.8.4 patch.
3133 * Fix double free of ctinfo in user_content when using
3134 #forw with single message. From John MacMillan (and
3137 * Changed -mhnproc switch for show, to -showmimeproc.
3139 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".
3141 * Added "mime" option to "whatnow", which calls the program
3142 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
3145 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
3148 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
3150 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
3151 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
3152 which used unsigned chars by default.
3154 Sat Jun 21 01:21:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3156 * Released nmh-0.15.
3158 * Added new form "scan.unseen" to distribution. It marks messages
3159 which are in any sequence in Unseen-Sequence.
3161 * Do some rearranging of date/time code in zotnet/tws/dtime.c
3163 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
3165 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
3168 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
3169 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
3170 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
3172 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
3173 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
3175 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
3177 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
3178 they conflict with defines on AIX.
3180 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
3181 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
3182 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
3183 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
3185 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
3186 and put in own subroutine.
3188 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
3189 and put in own subroutine.
3191 * Moved code to remove messages from folder into own
3192 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and
3193 refile.c to use new routine.
3195 Fri May 16 06:09:31 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3197 * Renamed m_seqok to seq_nameok.
3199 * Changed m_setunseen, msh, mshcmds, flist, and scan to use
3202 * Changed m_seqflag to return the number of a sequence rather
3203 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
3204 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
3206 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
3209 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before
3210 adding message to sequence.
3212 * Renamed function m_setvis to m_setunseen, and renamed
3213 corresponding file in sbr.
3215 * Renamed function m_setseq to m_setprev, and renamed corresponding
3218 * Changed mark.c and pick.c to use m_seqaddsel and m_seqdelsel.
3220 * Added new function m_seqdelsel to m_seqdel.c, which deletes
3221 all selected messages from a sequence.
3223 * Added new function m_seqaddsel to m_seqadd.c, which adds all
3224 selected messages to a sequence.
3226 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,
3229 Thu May 15 00:53:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3231 * Renamed function pack_folder to m_packfolder, and moved it
3232 from uip/folder.c into its own file sbr/m_packfolder.c
3234 Wed May 14 23:38:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3236 * Changed function m_gmsg to m_readfolder. Renamed file
3237 sbr/m_gmsg.c to sbr/m_readfolder.c.
3239 Mon May 5 19:57:11 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3241 * Expanded rcvtty man page, and added small patch from
3242 MH-6.8.4 distribution.
3244 Fri May 2 15:24:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3246 * Released nmh-0.14.
3248 * Comment out configure test and code for tgetent to allocate its
3249 own termcap buffer when passed a NULL argument.
3251 Sat Apr 26 03:46:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3253 * Added new options `-checkmime', `-nocheckmime', and `-mhnproc'
3254 to show. Restructured code to handle options to various
3255 `procs' better. Deprecated `-noshowproc' option and NOMHNPROC
3256 environment variable.
3258 * Added new man page `mh-draft' which documents the
3259 draft folder facility in nmh.
3261 * Renamed fmtsbr.h to fmt_scan.h. Renamed fmtcompile.h
3264 * split fmtsbr.c into fmt_scan.c and fmt_new.c. Renamed
3265 fmtcompile.c to fmt_compile.c, and formataddr.c to
3268 * `send -help' wasn't showing the -(no)mime and -split
3271 Fri Apr 25 02:50:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3273 * Released nmh-0.13.
3275 * Changed mhpath so it doesn't abort if a message sequence
3276 such as "mhpath all" expands to more than 1000 messages.
3277 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
3278 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
3281 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
3282 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
3284 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3286 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if
3287 necessary. So `folders' can now handle more than 300 folders.
3289 Tue Apr 22 14:01:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3291 * Change configure to use a compile check to see if the tm struct
3292 has tm_gmtoff, rather than using egrep.
3294 Mon Apr 21 02:19:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3296 * Released nmh-0.12.
3298 * Had set_exists and unset_exists macros backwards.
3300 * Released nmh-0.11.
3302 Thu Apr 10 02:39:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3304 * Added documentation to mh-profile.man about the various
3305 `procs' (mhlproc, showproc, lproc, etc...).
3307 * Replace the bit twiddling for SELECTED, UNSEEN, and
3308 mp->attrstats with macros.
3310 * If system doesn't have SIGEMT (like Linux), then use SIGTERM
3313 * Change fstat to stat in m_gmsg.c since Linux wants
3316 * Merge Linux patch sent in by Michel Oosterhof (original
3317 patch from bsa@kf8nh.wariat.org).
3319 * Document an undocumented MH feature. mhn -form mhl.null
3320 will suppress the display of the message header.
3322 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
3324 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c
3325 and mshcmds.c, rather than hard coding in /bin/cat.
3327 * Add mhnproc to the list of `procs' in mh-profile.man.
3329 * Add configure test for lorder and tsort commands.
3331 * Commented out the padding in the `msgs` struct in h/mh.h
3333 * Change m_gmsg.c to allocate elements to the `info' array by
3334 500 elements at a time (rather than MAXFOLDERS / 5).
3336 * Add note to man page for mhmail that zero length messages are
3337 not sent. Need to use -body "" to send empty messages.
3339 * zotnet/mts/mts.c : compare character with '\0', not NULL.
3341 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
3343 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
3344 folder/message structure when done with folder.
3346 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is

3361 The "From " line is now removed from all messages.
3363 * inc now saves the date from the "From " envelope in the
3364 Delivery-Date header for all messages.
3366 * sbr/m_getfld.c: Clean up processing of Return-Path and
3367 Delivery-Date from the "From " envelope.
3369 Mon Mar 17 19:03:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3371 * client.c: cast iaddr to int before comparing return value
3372 of inet_addr with NOTOK.
3374 Tue Mar 11 04:38:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3376 * Grep test for signal names was failing on some OS'es because
3377 of missing tabs in regex.

3404 Mon Mar 3 00:18:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3406 * rcvtty.c : Changed to use #define UTMP_FILE (if exists) rather
3407 than hard coded "/etc/utmp".
3409 * Released nmh-0.08.
3411 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
3412 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of
3413 locking database itself.
3415 Thu Feb 27 05:28:09 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3417 * Added slocal action `mmdf' to deliver to a file in mmdf format.
3419 * Changed the slocal actions `file' and `>' to always deliver in
3420 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
3423 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
3424 rather than mmdf format.
3426 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
3427 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
3428 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
3429 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
3431 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
3433 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3435 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
3438 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
3439 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
3440 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
3442 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
3443 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
3444 rcvpack so you can choose the preferred format.
3446 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3448 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
3449 can still easily change this in config.h).
3451 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
3452 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
3453 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
3455 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3457 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather
3458 than tzset and external timezone variable.
3460 Thu Feb 13 00:35:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3462 * Fixed typo in ruserpass.c in the variable toktabs.

3469 Tue Feb 11 01:29:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3471 * Add check to configure, so that if ruserpass, or _ruserpass
3472 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
3474 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
3475 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
3478 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
3479 built-in FTP client in mhn.

3482 to use ushort/ulong rather than u_short/u_long.
3484 * A couple of small cleanups in locking code.
3486 * Added configure check for gmtoff element in struct tm.
3488 * Added configure check for tzset.

3492 * Released nmh-0.06.
3494 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
3495 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
3497 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
3498 many such machines around anymore.
3500 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
3501 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
3503 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
3504 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
3506 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3508 * Check lex generated file in zotnet/tws and use
3509 pre-generated version if necessary.
3511 * Released nmh-0.05.
3513 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
3514 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
3515 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
3516 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
3518 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
3519 be linked in one pass.
3521 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3523 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
3524 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
3526 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3528 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
3530 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3532 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
3533 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
3534 become the current folder.
3536 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3538 * Released nmh-0.04.
3540 * Define ospeed and PC in termsbr.c is OS doesn't have
3543 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3545 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
3546 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
3547 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
3549 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3551 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
3552 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
3554 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3556 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
3557 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
3560 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
3561 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
3563 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3565 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
3566 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
3567 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
3568 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
3569 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
3570 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
3572 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3574 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
3575 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
3577 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
3578 a file (currently need to specify full path).
3580 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3582 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
3583 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
3585 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3587 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
3588 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
3589 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
3591 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3593 * Released nmh-0.03.
3595 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
3596 .mh_sequence file existed.
3598 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
3599 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
3601 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
3602 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
3605 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3607 * Changed flist option -unseen to -[no]all. Cleaned up
3610 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3612 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
3613 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
3614 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
3616 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3618 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
3619 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
3620 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
3622 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3624 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL
3625 and allocate its own buffer. Borrowed from zsh.
3627 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
3629 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3631 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
3632 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
3633 directory from where the source code is located.
3635 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3637 * Released nmh-0.02.
3639 Wed Jan 1 17:41:52 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

3644 Tue Dec 31 03:07:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3646 * Changed code to use strerror, rather than using sys_errlist
3647 and sys_nerr directly.

3651 * -compat switch from install-mh removed.
3653 * Changed the default POP port from "pop" to "pop3".
3655 Sat Dec 28 13:25:05 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3657 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
3658 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
3659 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
3660 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
3661 rather than in script.
3663 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3665 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
3667 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with
3668 macro defined on Solaris.
3670 Thu Dec 26 02:50:15 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3672 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
3673 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
3675 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
3676 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
3677 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
3678 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
3681 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3683 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
3684 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.
3686 * Fixed configure test so that termcap variable ospeed is
3689 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3691 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
3693 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included
3694 in mhn.c. Changed md5 to use memset and memcpy.
3696 Fri Dec 20 02:29:37 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3698 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
3699 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
3701 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3703 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
3704 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
3705 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
3706 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
3707 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
3708 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
3710 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3712 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
3714 * Released nmh-0.01.
3716 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
3717 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
3718 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
3721 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3723 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
3726 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3728 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
3729 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
3731 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3733 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
3734 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
3735 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
3736 script to find_program.
3738 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3740 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
3741 speed up -recurse option.
3743 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
3744 yet, but it compiles :-)
3746 * Changed default location for install to
3747 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
3748 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
3749 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
3752 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
3753 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
3754 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
