1 2006-03-05 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
3 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c: don't try to malloc 0 bytes if an RFC2047
6 2006-03-04 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
8 * etc/Makefile.in: use INSTALL_SCRIPT to install scripts;
9 this allows INSTALL_PROGRAM to be set to 'install -s' so
10 binaries are stripped on installation. Apparently the BSDs
13 2006-02-25 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
15 * uip/sendsbr.c: replaced st_mtim with st_mtime, that's what
16 it should have been. Added #include of h/tws.h to pick up
19 2006-02-20 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
21 * h/mh.h, h/prototypes.h, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, uip/send.c,
22 uip/sendsbr.c, uip/viamail.c, uip/whatnowsbr.c, man/send.man:
23 added -attachformat switch to send, to support alternate MIME
24 header contents when using -attach. See send man page for
27 * man/mhbuild.man: wrapped one appearance of "Content-Disposition"
28 with quotes, to be consistent with others.
30 2006-02-20 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
32 * h/utils.h, sbr/utils.c, uip/flist.c, uip/folder.c: Move duplicate
33 function num_digits into utils.c
35 2006-02-19 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
37 * sbr/m_draft.c, sbr/utils.c, uip/folder.c, uip/inc.c,
38 uip/mhstoresbr.c, uip/popi.c, uip/refile.c: Add create_folder()
39 function, replacing duplicate code during folder creation.
41 2006-02-18 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
43 * h/mime.h, h/mhparse.h, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, uip/mhfree.c,
44 man/mhbuild.man, docs/TODO: added support for an optional
45 Content-Disposition header in mhbuild (only). Its contents
46 are supplied between {}, positioned after the optional [], in
47 a mhbuild directive. If the contents do not contain a
48 "filename=" parameter, and the directive has a filename, or
49 something else that ends with "name=", then that will be used
50 to add a "filename=" parameter to the header.
52 2006-02-12 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
54 * docs/TODO: added RFC2183 to reference of RFC1806 for
55 Content-Disposition header.
57 2006-01-31 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
59 * uip/mhbuild.c, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, man/mhbuild.man: added
60 -nocontentid switch, to disable generation of Content-ID:
61 header in MIME messages. (Also added -contentid for
62 symmetry.) The default configuration of Microsoft Outlook,
63 Build 10.0.3416 in particular, doesn't see attachments in
64 incoming messages if there are Content-ID headers, see
65 http://home.cwru.edu/~wrv/eudoraoutlookfix.html. This allows
66 users to easily accomodate that by adding
67 mhbuild: -nocontentid to their .mh_profile.
69 2006-01-29 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
71 * bug 4360: uip/replsbr.c: remove trailing newlines from components
72 to fix bug with spaces at the end of Subject/References in replies
74 2006-01-18 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
76 * configure.in: use AS_HELP_STRING for formatting help messages
78 * configure.in, sbr/fmt_scan.c: add autoconf magic to support
79 old systems that don't support multibyte character sets
81 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: fix bug with insertion of newline being wrong if
82 the num function was used at the end of the format buffer
84 2006-01-17 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
86 * uip/post.c, uip/spost.c: in make_bcc_file (), use same
87 logic as in finish_headers () to detect whether there is an
88 existing From: line in the draft. If draft_from masquerade
89 flag is enabled, this allows the From: to be obeyed in the
90 Bcc, instead of the old behavior of always replacing it with
93 2006-01-17 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
95 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: more robust multi-byte/column support for field
96 widths, restoring right justification feature
98 2006-01-16 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
100 * h/aliasbr.h, h/rcvmail.h, man/Makefile.in, man/slocal.man,
101 sbr/lock_file.c, uip/aliasbr.c, uip/dropsbr.c, uip/post.c,
102 uip/slocal.c, man/mh-mts.man: remove remnants of code for MMDF
104 * uip/scansbr.c: multiply buffer size by MB_CUR_MAX so multi-byte
107 2006-01-14 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
109 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: Turn the PUTSF macro into a function capable of
110 handling multi column characters.
112 2006-01-07 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
114 * Remove sbr/strerror.c -- strerror(3) is defined in C89.
116 2006-01-06 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
118 * patch #3968: Move the add() function from its own file (add.c) and
119 into utils.c. There was also a duplicate add() function in mf.c which
122 2006-01-02 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
124 * Remove sbr/pwd.c file, moving the pwd() function into sbr/utils.c.
126 2006-01-01 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
128 * patch #3967: Create a mh_xrealloc function to prevent mistakes when
131 2006-01-01 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
133 * patch #3966: Create a mh_xmalloc function to prevent mistakes when
136 2005-12-24 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
138 * Bug #15285: Don't use $< in target rules in makefiles, as POSIX
139 says it's only defined in inference rules. (BSD make was expanding
140 $< to the empty string in the rule for building sbr/dtimep.c, which
141 causes lex to apparently hang because it's reading from stdin.)
143 2005-12-24 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
145 * Completely redo db library checking -- we now check for working
146 (include file, library) pairs rather than checking for headers and
147 libraries separately. We also now provide --with-ndbm=lib and
148 --with-ndbmheader=header options to configure to handle situations
149 where configure's autodetection fails.
151 2005-12-21 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
153 * Fix stupid accidental dependence on a bash quirk in previous
154 configure script change.
156 2005-12-15 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
158 * Improve checking for Berkeley db libraries: configure should now
159 find a suitable library on systems with new gdbm where
160 compatibility functions are in the gdbm_compat library, and on
163 2005-12-13 Michael Forrest <mef@computer.org>
165 * Fedora Bug #163760: sbr/context_read.c (context_read): Ensure that
166 the context is only read once.
168 2005-12-12 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
170 * uip/sendsbr.c (annoaux): Fix the call to annotate() fixing a bug
171 which prevented repl from properly annotating messages.
173 2005-12-07 Jon Steinhart <nmh@fourwinds.com>
175 * Fixed a bug where anno -append put the headers in the wrong place
176 if applied to a message that didn't contain any headers.
178 * Added a special value of "all" to the -number option that causes
179 anno -delete to delete all matching components instead of just
182 * Added new -preserve and -nopreserve options. Using -preserve
183 retains the original last accessed and last modified times on
186 2005-12-05 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
188 * Fedora Bug #174983: configure.in: Fix the AC_PATH_PROG default when
189 vi isn't found during build.
191 2005-11-19 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
193 * bug #14977: sbr/context_read.c: special case an MHCONTEXT of
194 "/dev/null" and don't try to lock it.
196 * bug #9228, debian bug #146449: man/mh-profile.man: make it clearer
197 that lower case environment variables (and in particular mheditor)
198 are internal to nmh and not intended to be set by the user.
200 2005-11-09 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
202 * sbr/mf.c: fix buffer overrun with absurdly long addresses
203 (only causes crashes if scan is run with '-width 16536' or similar)
205 * bug #7917: sbr/context_foil.c, sbr/context_read.c,
206 sbr/context_save.c: mark 'no context' with NULL rather than
207 "/dev/null" so we don't inadvertently try to lock /dev/null (which
208 takes up to a minute in some locking configurations and makes post
211 * patch #3913: uip/post.c: pass some globals into sm_init() so that
212 it uses SASL if necessary. (This bug was preventing Bcc'd emails
213 from being sent via SASL authenticated SMTP.)
215 * bug #9813: uip/rmf.c: don't crash if there's no Current-Folder
216 entry in the context file.
218 2005-11-13 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
220 * bug #7833: uip/Makefile.in: remove link to install-mh that caused
221 problems on some systems
223 * bug #739: Makefile.in: install target now depends on all to avoid
224 problem on case-insensitive file systems with the INSTALL file
226 2005-11-10 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
228 * Fedora Bug #172838: configure.in: Fix the AC_PATH_PROG default when
229 sendmail isn't found during build.
231 2005-11-09 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
233 * h/aliasbr.h: fix a non-ANSI prototype.
235 2005-11-08 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
237 * Simon Burge: acconfig.h, configure.in, uip/rcvtty.c, uip/slocal.c:
238 fix to handle getutent() on NetBSD
240 * INSTALL, README, docs/README.about, man/nmh.man: update most
241 references to the web page and mailing list locations
243 * bug #10230: etc/Makefile.in, man/Makefile.in, uip/Makefile.in:
244 Michael De La Rue: prepend DESTDIR to install locations
246 * configure.in, */Makefile.in, mts/smtp/smtp.c: replace obsolete
249 2005-11-06 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
251 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, sbr/fmt_scan.c, h/prototypes.h: fix various
252 possible overruns of the buffers in fmt_scan() which would cause
253 crashes if scan was run with '-width 16536' or similar.
255 * uip/popsbr.c: fix compile error which only showed up if nmh
256 was configured with --enable-apop.
258 * Debian Bug# 245932, RedHat Bug# 172388: uip/mhparse.c: don't
259 crash when handling a multipart MIME message with an invalid
260 Content-Type header (file handle was being fclose()d twice).
262 * sbr/Makefile.in: adjust lex command to work on both old and
263 new versions of flex.
265 * configure.in: add an AC_PREREQ() so autoconf 2.13 gives a helpful
266 error message and the Debian autoconf-version-guessing wrapper
267 doesn't guess wrongly.
269 2005-11-02 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
271 * Debian Bug# 320069: Nick Rusnov: uip/popsbr.c: fail when
272 kpop connection attempted without KPOP support compiled in
274 * Debian Bug# 320090: Nick Rusnov: sbr/Makefile.in: fix for newer
275 version of flex and remove autogenerated file from cvs
277 * patch #1155: uip/flist.c: speed up flist by skipping stat on
278 files with numbers as names
280 * docs/Makefile.in: include new files in distribution
282 2005-10-11 Bill Wohler <wohler@newt.com>
284 * docs/FAQ: fold questions into MH FAQ and distribute that instead
286 2005-10-05 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
288 * Harald Geyer: h/mh.h, uip/replsbr.c: back out previous change
289 (fork/vfork) and replace with code that handles the issue directly
291 2005-05-18 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
293 * Debian Bug# 143485: Nick Rusnov: h/mh.h: use fork instead of
296 * Debian Bug# 261592: Harald Geyer: uip/mhlsbr.c, uip/replsbr.c:
297 test/report error writing to stdout
299 * mts/smtp/smtp.c, uip/popsbr.c: correct SASL include file locations
301 * docs/COMPLETION-BASH: bash completion definitions from Debian
303 * patch #2863: savannah@brisammon.fastmail.fm: sbr/folder_read.c:
304 fix a bug affecting AFS where nmh was setting the READONLY flag
305 for a folder even when you do have write access to the folder
307 * Carl Mummert: h/fmt_compile.h, man/mh-format.man,
308 sbr/fmt_compile.c, sbr/fmt_scan.c: add unquote() function for
309 removing quotes from RFC-2822 encoded headers
311 2005-02-23 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
313 * use iconv to convert RFC-2047 encoded headers to the
314 character set used by the current locale
316 * sbr/folder_read.c fix Debian bug #202667: crash when a
317 message's filename overflows an int when converted
319 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
320 versions (from automake 1.9.5)
322 2005-02-21 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
324 * sbr/getpass.c fix bug where inc crashed on failing to reopen
327 2005-01-27 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
329 * Added -proxy option to inc and msgchk. Based on old patch
330 from Michael Richardson.
332 * On systems where it is available, use nl_langinfo to get the
333 character set if MM_CHARSET is unset
335 2005-01-21 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
337 * sbr/check_charset.c US-ASCII is a subset of UTF-8 so can be
338 handled directly when UTF-8 is being used
340 2004-12-17 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
342 * uip/mhmisc.c Fix -part option to mhshow/mhlist/mhstore to
343 find sub-parts of the specified part
345 2004-11-19 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
347 * h/prototypes.h, sbr/folder_addmsg.c, uip/mhstoresbr.c,
348 uip/rcvstore.c, uip/refile.c: Added mail directory argument to
349 folder_addmsg in order to make it possible to provide a path to
350 the ext_hook call that is mailpath-based. A problem existed when
351 a folder was a symbolic link and the pwd call would return the
352 path relative to the filesystem, not to mailpath. A new argument
353 was needed because there was otherwise no reasonable way to get
356 2004-11-16 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
358 * sbr/folder_pack.c: Fixed problem where the refile hook was being
359 called after a message was renamed so that it wasn't around for
360 the hook. The hook is now called before the message file is
363 * sbr/folder_addmsg.c: Fixed wrong directory for hook when
364 refiling with -src option.
366 2004-10-15 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
368 * uip/sortm.c: Fixed calling of external hooks.
370 2004-10-12 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
372 * uip/inc.c: Fixed another weird bug caused by the static
373 mailpath being overwritten.
375 * uip/sendsbr.c: Fixed bug that caused anno to mangle headers.
377 * sbr/lock_file.c: Fixed strange bug that prevented a lock from
378 ever being obtained if getting it failed the first time. The
379 problem was that the string of XXXXXX that is required by
380 mkstemp() was overwritten the first time through, and so all
381 subsequent times failed because mkstemp() failed. The fix
382 reinitializes the tmp file string.
384 * uip/inc.c: Fixed bug in which the static maildir was overwritted
385 if a format string was read from the profile.
387 * sbr/folder_delmsgs.c: Fixed bug that was producing an incorrect
388 path for the external hook.
390 2003-10-06 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
392 * uip/slocal.c, configure.in: db configuration fix for Debian; yet
393 another location for ndbm.
395 2003-09-30 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
397 * Fix 'pick' so handling of options "-list" and "-seq" are
399 * Fix 'inc' realloc error when bringing in more than 100 msgs
401 * Patches submitted by Nick Rusnov from Debian archive applied:
404 136976 - Handle binary content messages
405 143427 - mh-format.man typo
406 144098 - 'spost; should have same behavior as 'post'
407 w.r.t. mts.conf masquerade line
408 149745 - slocal ignores 'N' result of previous command
409 152728 - increase SMTP timeouts to conform to RFC 1123
410 The timeouts suggested by the RFC seem long
411 to me - but the RFC is still listed as active.
412 181867 - typo for nmh.man
414 2003-08-10 Jeffrey C Honig <jch@honig.net>
416 * Fix problem where parsing of address/date fields in fmt_compile
417 is optimized to the first instance. The first instance may be in
418 contitional code which will result in cached data to
419 be used. Instead, convert c_flags to a flags field from a boolean
420 and parse on the first use.
421 * Remove some unused flag bits.
423 Fri Jul 01 22:02:00 2003 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
425 * Applied fixes for configuration problems with Solaris and
426 systems with gdbm instead of db1 (includes bug #2024)
428 #578 - repl leaks umask
429 #1393 - sortm core dumps
430 #1650 - msh leaks file descriptors
431 #1730 - Double free() in mhfree.c:free_encoding()
432 #3356 - In-Reply-To header in default replcomps should be
434 * Revised man page for mh-format (bug #2031)
435 * New replcomps, etc, with Fcc: +outbox in default versions
437 Sat Mar 17 03:18:15 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
439 * Ken Hornstein's configure.in Cyrus SASL checks were doing
440 `x"$with_cyrus_sasl" != "no"' instead of `... != x"no"'.
442 Tue Mar 06 21:04:27 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
444 * Found some historical information about MH in RFC 808.
445 Supplemented it with info from Jerry Peek's MH book and added it
446 to docs/README.about.
448 Tue Feb 6 20:35:40 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
450 * sbr/dtime.c Use the same Y2K correction code as dtimep.lex
452 * sbr/dtimep.lex Restrict the parser to accept either
453 a numerical timezone offset, or a symbolic one (e.g. EST),
454 but not both (Since "2000 -400 EDT" might cause a double
455 subtraction of 60 minutes if both are parsed. One should be
458 Mon Feb 05 20:22:54 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
460 * -L isn't sufficient for specifying the path of the Cyrus SASL
461 shared library. That'll allow us to link successfully, but on
462 many/most OSes that won't allow us to find libsasl at runtime. On
463 Solaris, we need to specify the library path with -R as well (or
464 else the user will have to use the $LD_LIBRARY_PATH kludge, which
465 is considered harmful). This fix should be extended to other OSes
468 * Print whether we have SASL support in the "nmh configuration"
469 summary configure prints out.
471 * Say in README.developers to use `\date' in case anyone is like
472 me and has `date' aliased in their shell to use a nonstandard (but
473 subjectively more readable) format.
475 Thu Jan 25 21:15:52 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
477 * man/mh-chart.man has updated synposes of
480 Tue Jan 23 20:26:15 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
482 * etc/digestcomps tried to force dates into a
483 19xx when it's not necessary.
485 Fri Jan 19 21:22:08 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
487 * First round of manpage updates finished. They
488 are standardized on -man macros, with minimal
491 * man/tmac.h.in is no longer needed, since the
492 manpages do not depend on them anymore. Note:
493 strict "man" programs that didn't allow ".so"
494 sourcing outside the man tree will now format
495 the man pages correctly.
497 * man/vmh.1 is no longer built, since uip/vmh isn't
499 Tue Jan 9 6:01:22 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
501 * Finished manpages ali-prev
503 * Removed deprecated files from the repository.
504 Specifically, those rooted in zotnet/ and mts/sendmail
505 mts/mmdf. "cvs update -dP" will give a pruned directory
508 * Updated docs/Makefile.in to include README.manpages, and
509 uip/Makefile.in to include popi.c (which isn't being built,
510 though). This allows "make nmhdist" to create an archive that
511 is file-for-file identical to the current cvs repository.
513 Sun Dec 31 20:48:50 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
515 * Create docs/README.manpages, which details
516 the formatting rules I've been using.
520 Sat Dec 30 9:50:13 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
522 * Created a new file "DATE" to hold the date
523 of the most recent nmh release. This date will be
524 used in the manpages.
526 * Updated docs/README.developers to add the step
527 of updating DATE. Also, updated configure to
528 read in the contents of the file as the variable
531 * Started work on updating man pages, with only
532 ali finished so far. Changes: 1) no dependence
533 on an external macro file, 2) uses only
534 -man macros (although I may be mistaken in this),
535 3) syntax in the SYNOPSIS is a little more
536 in line with standard UNIX documentation, such as
537 bold flags and italicized parameters.
539 Sun Dec 24 10:06:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
541 * Updated INSTALL with information about the
542 --with-locking option.
544 * Fixed the Hesiod tests in configure.in. In
545 systems where res_send was in -lresolv, this
546 information was not being communicated to the
547 HESIOD_LIBS var. Now, if res_send is not found
548 in the default libraries, it's assumed to be
549 in -lresolv, and thus -lresolv is appended to
550 HESIOD_LIBS, which will need that to avoid
551 undefined symbols problems.
553 * Fixed the Kerberos tests in configure.in. New
554 versions of Kerberos 5 have renamed -lcrypto
555 to -lk5crypto (circa krb5 1.1 or thereabouts). The
556 new test tries to determine if -lk5crypto exists. If so,
557 this is a new krb5 system. If not, test for -lcrypto
558 and the rest of old krb5. If that fails, look
559 for a genuine krb4 installation.
561 Fri Dec 22 22:08:51 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
563 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in msgchk.man.
564 -snoop was documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
566 Fri Dec 22 23:42:16 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
568 * Made a new ./configure option called
569 "--with-locking" that allows the file
570 locking mechanism to be chosen there instead of
571 requiring a manual edit of config.h.
573 * If the option is not explicitly set, or an
574 invalid option is specified, "dot" locking is
575 chosen. Valid options are "dot", "fcntl",
576 "flock", and "lockf". We need a way to tell
577 the user that these are the valid options, and
578 change the flag "--with-locking" if it's not
581 Fri Dec 22 19:21:29 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
583 * Remove the lex-specific memory hints at the
584 beginning of sbr/dtimep.lex. We've already
585 committed to supporting flex only, since
586 lex does not easily allow us to parse a single
587 string, as well as other problems documented
588 below and on nmh-workers.
590 * Added a switch statement to configure.in to
591 test for Mac OS X. If this is the case, LDFLAGS
592 should not contain "-s" since the linker rejects
595 * Updated MACHINES to include Mac OS X Public Beta,
596 as well as Linux 2.4 running glibc 2.2.
598 Wed Dec 20 16:00:46 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
600 * Marked deprecated directories in docs/README.developers
601 as deprecated, with pointers to the new code location.
602 Eventually these deprecated directories should go away.
604 Tue Dec 19 19:16:37 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
606 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in inc.man. -snoop was
607 documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
609 Thu Dec 14 14:32:09 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
611 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
612 versions on ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/config, dated
613 12-07-00. This should prevent configure from failing
614 on newer operating systems because config.{guess,sub}
615 couldn't correctly identify them.
617 Thu Dec 14 1:30:44 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
619 * Fixed the circular dependency created when I moved
620 zotnet/mts to mts/generic and merged them into libmts.
621 mts/generic/client.c and mts/generic/mts.c are now in sbr/
622 (and thus in libmh), which makes libmh self-contained and
623 not depending on an external archive.
625 * All include statements now look for mts.h in h/. The
626 Makefiles and configure script have been modified so that
627 mts/generic is no longer built.
629 Mon Dec 11 22:08:07 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
631 * When Shantonu made the new libmts.a, he swapped $(MTSLIB) and
632 libmh.a in sbr/Makefile.in so that libmh.a comes first, but this
633 causes the build to fail on Solaris, because libmts.a has to get
634 ruserpass() out of libmh.a. Swapping them back to the way Ken
635 Hornstein's patch (which I applied on Jul 20) put them, with
636 libmh.a correctly coming second. If there are times when libmts.a
637 needs to come second, then it would appear there's a circular
638 dependency and someone (Shantonu?) did an mts merge incorrectly.
640 Fri Sep 8 01:36:23 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
642 * Took out bad time textual time zones like BST and JST.
643 I found them online somewhere, but am not sure if they're
646 Fri Sep 8 00:36:48 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
648 * Moved zotnet/mts to mts/generic. This code reorganization
649 makes the entire zotnet tree deprecated -- bboards is unneeded,
650 mf was was moved to sbr, tws was rewritten and moved to sbr, and
653 * Created a new static library called libmts.a used during
654 compilation which includes the generic mts code and the
655 smtp/sendmail code. This supercedes the functionality of the
656 old libsmtp.a and the remains of libzot.a.
658 * Updated header includes to reference the new location of mts.h
659 in mts/generic/mts.h. Also, update the configure and top-level
660 Makefile not to descend into zotnet. Also, they don't descend
661 into mts/mmdf and mts/sendmail (the sendmail code has been
662 merged into the smtp code).
664 * Added #include <h/nmh.h> to h/md5.h, since my compile was
665 complaining about implicitly-declared memcpy and memset, which
666 appear to be in strings.h. In any event, nmh.h should take care
669 * When doing a "make nmhdist", notice that the generated
670 snapshot does not include zotnet of the mts directories as noted
671 above. Since they are no longer compiled, and I don't see any
672 obvious code path to get to them, end-users should probably
673 not need them. If you think otherwise, turn Makefile generation
674 back on in configure.in and turn on recursion into those dirs
675 in the appropriate Makefile.in
677 Wed Sep 6 22:40:03 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
679 * Tracked down the problem in the new dtimep where time
680 zones were being radically misreported. It was because the
681 parser knew about military time zones (such as M or E) but in
682 some cases did not know about the textual representation of
683 some zones (like MET). When it encountered one of these, the
684 date parser misread MET as the military time zone T (well, first
685 zone M, then E, and finally T). I took military zones out, and
686 things seem much better. Also, the default behavior of parsing
687 time zones appears to default to GMT in the absence of better
688 info, which is less bogus than assuming the mail came from the
689 current time zone, which was the behavior in 1.04.
691 Thu Aug 10 13:22:13 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
693 * Decided that limiting the message number columns to 3 on my
694 scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD (to try to regain space taken by
695 extra date info) was ill-conceived. It's not that tough to get
696 past 999 messages, though I imagine it's rather rare to exceed
697 9999. Changed these to 4. Also put the "replied / encrypted"
698 column back in YYYYMMDD -- I've never seen it show anything but a
699 space, but that space is useful if you use scan, grep, and awk
700 (with the default field separator) to grab message numbers (I know
701 -- pick should really be used for these purposes...).
703 Mon Aug 7 20:11:09 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
705 * Modify umask set by mhshow to enable user execute bit, so that
706 viewers that create temporary directories (e.g., lynx) will be
709 Thu Aug 03 17:14:08 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
711 * TODO: Allow multiple simultaneous differing contexts, probably
712 each tied to a parent (terminal) process.
714 Tue Aug 1 10:48:05 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
716 * Makefile install rules should not look for generated files in
717 the source tree -- this will happen to work when configuring and
718 building inside the source tree but will fail when using an
719 external build tree. Fixed etc/Makefile.in.
721 Mon Jul 24 16:20:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
723 * When Shantonu wrote the new, more portable dtimep.lex, he left
724 out the #ifdef DSTXXX stuff for some reason. Not a good idea, as
725 that code is required for proper printing of numeric-offset
726 timezones that have daylight saving time. Without that code,
727 -0700 during DST gets printed as MST instead of PDT.
729 * Renamed DSTXXX as ADJUST_NUMERIC_ONLY_TZ_OFFSETS_WRT_DST and
730 added an explanatory comment by its #definition.
732 * Updated README.developers with the fact that zotnet/tws is going away.
734 Thu Jul 20 20:30:52 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
736 * Moved Kimmo's new "--with-hash-backup" to be output with the
737 rest of the --with options in the configure --help output. Also,
738 people did not preserve my alphabetization of the --with options
739 when they added new ones. Re-alphabetized.
741 * One more pass at README.developers now that it's clear that my
742 previously-suggested one-line autoconf-file commit can cause
743 unnecessary local makes and an out-of-sync stamp-h.in file, but
744 would not cause problems for other people using the CVS files.
746 * Ken Hornstein's SASL patch was not integrated properly with
747 Ruud's new merged mts/sendmail code. Kimmo has since fixed nmh so
748 it compiles, but according to Ken, the SASL stuff still does not
749 work. Integrating a patch from him for this.
751 * Last pass at README.developers -- Kimmo's 5-step commit was
752 overkill. You only need 3 steps, since configure.in is the only
753 autoconf file with the RCS $Id keyword.
755 * Applied Kurt J. Lidl <lidl@eng.us.uu.net>'s $MAILHOST patch:
757 I have a small patch that would be nice to be included --
758 basically, it allows the usage of the "MAILHOST" environment
759 variable, without having to have HESIOD turned on. I need
760 this functionality for my environment, where we have identical
761 /usr/local on all my machines (so I cannot just hardcode into
762 the mts.conf file), and I have multiple POP mail servers for
765 Modified inc.man to reflect that along with "pophost:" and -host,
766 $MAILHOST can now activate POP mail inclusion as well.
768 * Fixed warnings from diff on first-time install of nmh. Also
769 added 'echo's clarifying the etc file installation activities.
771 Tue Jul 18 19:36:59 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
773 * Added the answer to Dan's question in README.developers.
775 Mon Jul 17 19:10:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
777 * Clarified and made some corrections to Kimmo's README.developers
778 changes (BTW, if anyone can explain why the RCS Ids are able to cause
779 problems with the dependencies, please fill in the explanation --
780 I never encountered a problem with the old single-commit method).
782 Sat Jul 15 23:13:49 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
784 * Add configure option --with-hash-backup so the backup prefix can
785 be easily changed from "," to "#".
787 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that it works with any make.
789 * Use mkstemp in sbr/lock_file.c.
791 * Commits of autoconf-related files apparently can't all be done
792 in one shot due to RCS Ids changing when committing -- updated
795 Tue Jul 11 14:18:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
797 * Clarified post.man and send.man for those not completely up on
798 SASL terminology. "SASL encryption layers are not supported for
799 SMTP" means that encryption is supported for the authentication
800 but not for the subsequent data stream.
802 Sat Jul 8 01:36:19 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
804 * Applied Ken Hornstein <kenh@cmf.nrl.navy.mil>'s patches
805 implementing SASL support for POP3 and SMTP. If nmh is compiled
806 with SASL support, using the -sasl switch on the inc, msgchk,
807 post, and send commands will enable authentication encryption for
808 SMTP, and both authentication and data stream encryption for POP3.
810 Sat Jun 10 18:37:59 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
812 * Merged mts/sendmail functionality into mts/smtp; switching between
813 smtp and sendmail delivery method is now controlled by mts.conf.
815 * If tsort cannot deal with loops, in addition to defining tsort as
816 cat, also define lorder as echo.
818 * Removed uip/popi.c from list of sources.
820 Thu Jun 08 19:36:57 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
822 * New dtimep.lex didn't parse day names properly. Fixed. Also
823 clarified ambiguous comments preceding day_map[] array (from old
824 dtimep.lex) that probably led to the erroneous cp++ being added.
826 Wed Jun 7 20:52:33 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
828 * Added one more mkstemp invocation to uip/spost.c (which was in a
831 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to clean up permissions handling
832 and error handling in uip/inc.c.
834 Mon Jun 5 22:10:07 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
836 * Use cat instead of tsort if tsort cannot deal with loops in its
837 input (which is the case for tsort from GNU textutils).
839 Mon Jun 5 21:14:36 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
841 * If lockfile is present, and its dotlockfile program is setgid,
842 inc does not need to be setgid.
844 Sun Jun 4 21:35:40 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
846 * Added autoconf test for Miquel van Smoorenburg's liblockfile
847 library, as found on Debian systems.
849 * Added liblockfile support to sbr/lock_file.c.
851 Wed May 31 7:19:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
853 * Fixed up dtimep.lex a bit. Added back memory options for AIX to
854 increase available memory. Took out %option noyywrap, which
855 wasn't understood by AT&T lex, as well as the -i
856 case-insensitivity flag.
858 Wed May 31 07:40:45 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
860 * Added a lint target to the Makefiles and a check in autoconf
861 to determine whether lint or lclint exists on the system.
863 Fri May 30 19:21:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
865 * etc/Makefile.in was incorrectly installing mts.conf.in and
866 sendfiles.in -- fixed. Generated sendfiles script was not a
867 dependency of the `all' target, and was incorrectly included in
868 the distribution. Changed the suffix for the backed-up previous
869 versions of the etc files from the ambiguous .old to .prev. Added
870 call to diff -- only keep the .prev files around if different from
871 the newly-installed versions (intentionally didn't redirect output
872 to /dev/null so you'll notice when your changed versions are
873 getting moved aside).
875 * INSTALL never documented the etc/*.old thing. Documented the
876 new etc/*.prev thing (including a note to watch for diff output).
878 * Applied Alec Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu>'s dropsbr.c patch:
880 In the map_write routine, a call is made to map_open and this
881 call is supposed to set the "clear" variable to 0 or 1,
882 depending on whether the map file is empty or not. In
883 mh6.8.3, this worked because map_open would set "clear" by
884 calling the mbx_Xopen routine. In nmh, the code for mbx_Xopen
885 was merged into mbx_open, but the interface for mbx_open
886 doesn't support the clear variable, so that functionality was
887 lost. The map_open interface still contains "int *clear" in
888 the prototype, but never sets it.
890 My patch eliminates "clear" from the map_open interface (I
891 checked to make sure that map_write is the only client of
892 map_open). Furthermore, my patch also sets the "clear"
893 variable properly at the beginning of map_write by calling
894 fstat(). This eliminates the bug in that the value of "clear"
895 being used later in the routine was just stack garbage.
897 Having a bad value of clear causes this next bug to be
898 triggered: The fp file pointer was being opened with fdopen,
899 but in two of the three switch cases it wasn't being closed.
900 In certain cases, this was causing packf to run out of file
901 descriptors if you attempted to pack a large folder.
903 Mon May 29 7:48:15 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
905 * Moved the date parsing routines from zotnet/tws to sbr/ (and
906 tws.h to h/). Updated all source files to reflect to new location
909 * Rewrote dparsetime (in dtimep.lex -> dtimep.c) to replace the
910 old zotnet/tws/dtimep.c, dtimep.lex, lexstring.c, lexedit.c, and
911 dtimep.c-lexed. It should now work with flex (although untested
912 with lex), and requires no sed-ing. For now, I have the lexed
913 version in the distribution, so that end-users don't need to worry
914 about running it through flex/lex. I have not added back support
915 for guessing the time zone when it's not specified.
917 Sun May 28 17:44:15 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
919 * Added autoconf check for getutent().
921 * Changed uip/rcvtty.c and uip/slocal.c to use getutent() and
922 friends. Since I can only check on Linux, please check if
923 this works on other systems.
925 Sun May 28 14:58:49 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
927 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to uip/scansbr.c for more
928 checks for write failures.
930 * Unlink temporary file properly in uip/rcvtty.c.
932 * Moved viamail from bindir to libdir.
934 * Changed sendfiles into sendfiles.in, so that path to viamail
937 * Added gzip support to sendfiles.
939 * Added References header to replcomps and replgroupcomps.
941 Sun May 28 14:39:31 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
943 * Fixed m_getfld bug which caused segmentation faults when
944 incorporating messages which ended in multiple linefeeds crossing
947 Fri May 26 13:21:59 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
949 * msh has been unable to show MIME messages ever since 1.0. Alec
950 Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu> tracked down the problem to the
951 -show flag being passed to mhshow. mhshow is equivalent to the
952 old mhn -show, so we don't need the -show anymore. Removed it.
954 Fri May 12 02:51:21 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
956 * zotnet/bboards is not longer built by default. Goal is to move
957 the assorted functions in zotnet into sbr or some more logical
960 * Moved zotnet/mf to sbr, and changed mf.h references accordingly,
961 as well as Makefiles.
963 Thu May 11 02:21:34 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
965 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that both SRCS and OBJS aren't
966 seperately and redundantly defined, but so that OBJS is a
967 pattern-substituted version of SRCS with suffix .c -> .o. This
968 should make maintainability easier.
970 * Added section to MACHINES indicating what platforms nmh is known
971 to compile and work on, just to give users peace of mind, or
972 something. This is by no means complete or exhaustive, so add
973 whatever you know works.
975 Tue May 09 20:38:04 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
977 * Alphabetized Shantonu's $pop_kinds output on configure's "pop is
978 enabled" line. If POP3 is the only kind of POP enabled, say so,
979 rather than just saying "yes" (which is ambiguous).
981 * Fixed four warnings in Shantonu's new getpass.c. Needed to
982 #include <stdlib.h> for calloc(), <unistd.h> for ttyname(), and
983 "h/mh.h" for adios(). Also changed ch from char to int to get rid
984 of "comparison is always 1 due to limited range of data type" on EOF.
986 * Added steps to README.developers saying to change the version
987 number to X.Y.Z+dev. Did a little rearranging and changed the FTP
988 dir from /home/ftp to /var/ftp to reflect Doug's new machine.
990 * Changed configure.in to use gcc -Wall even without
991 --enable-debug, to prevent developers compiling optimized from
992 introducing warnings, and to give end-users a warm, fuzzy feeling
993 as they (hopefully) see no warnings come out (except perhaps on
994 the lex output file) even with -Wall.
996 * Renamed getpass() to nmh_getpass() since the prototype for
997 getpass() varies from OS to OS, and we want to _always_ use our
998 version of the function. Fixed all the callers to use
999 nmh_getpass() and added it to prototypes.h. Semi-arbitrarily
1000 upped MAX_PASSWORD_LEN from 128 to 256. buf was being calloc()'d
1001 and the memory leaked -- should have just been declared as static
1002 char array. Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the
1003 copyright message, as this version has been changed significantly
1004 from the BSD version.
1006 * Added "nmh-local functions to use in preference to OS versions"
1007 section to README.developers (currently just says to use
1008 nmh_getpass() instead of system getpass()).
1010 * Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the copyright message
1011 in ruserpass.c also.
1013 * Added mts.conf.5 page per Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s
1016 This happens on solaris:
1019 windex entry incorrect: mts.conf(5) not found.
1020 No manual entry for mts.conf.
1024 % echo ".so man5/mh-tailor.5" > mts.conf.5
1026 done in the man5 directory. We need to add 'mts.conf.5' as a
1027 reference sourcing mh-tailor.5.
1029 Mon May 08 23:51:55 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1031 * Doug informed me that the way I had restored the "lost" version
1032 histories was wrong, because `cvs checkout's of old versions of
1033 nmh wouldn't work properly. It occurs to me that this could be
1034 fixed by simply deleting those tags in the new-location *,v files,
1035 but oh well. I'm putting everything back to the way Doug
1036 originally had it. To get the old version history for a file that
1037 used to be in the top directory, you'll need to "blindly" do a
1038 `cvs log' there (even though you won't have a local copy of the
1039 file in that directory). `cvs diff' will no longer be able to
1040 diff pre-move versions vs. post-move versions -- you'll have to do
1041 a lot of manual gyrations with `cvs checkout' and then use `diff'.
1043 * I had alphabetized the --configure options in the --help output
1044 awhile back, but Shantonu added --enable-apop just under
1045 --enable-pop. Put it in alphabetical order and clarified what
1046 --enable-apop does vs. --enable-pop and --with-krb4. Also changed
1047 --with-mts help line from "mail transport agent" to "mail
1048 transport agent/service" so the 's' in "mts" doesn't seem to come
1051 * Added two steps to "releasing nmh" in README.developers. After
1052 making the tarball, it's a good idea to diff the tree vs. the CVS
1053 tree to make sure no files got left out, and then to chown the
1054 files so that they're owned by root, preventing a Trojaning attack
1055 by a malicious remote user with a UID matching yours.
1057 * Changed DIFFERENCES to say that RPOP is not currently supported
1058 rather than implying it by saying that APOP, KPOP, and POP[3] are.
1060 Sun May 07 18:16:43 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1062 * Imported NetBSD version of getpass() and made extensive
1063 revisions for compatibility with programs that pipe the password
1064 to stdin, such as exmh.
1066 * Removed tests for system ruserpass() which sometimes gave
1067 phantom positive results. Also, bext to use internal functions if
1068 we ever want to change .netrc format to something else, or access
1071 Sat May 06 08:28:09 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1073 * Restored lost version histories for those moved files by doing a
1074 manual `mv' in the CVSROOT on mhost. CVS badly needs a `cvs mv'
1075 command so that you can move files (without having physical access
1076 to the CVSROOT) without losing versioning. Put MACHINES back at
1077 the top level as it needs to be read before building. Fixed DIST
1078 variable in {.,docs}/Makefile.in to reflect that and to add
1079 missing entry for "INSTALL" file.
1081 Sat May 06 13:13:07 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1083 * Re-cleaned up nmh documentation (by moving things to docs
1084 subdir) and modified Makefile & configure.in to handle the change.
1086 Mon Apr 17 21:28:40 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1088 * Scott Blachowicz pointed out that the configure --help output
1089 for --enable-masquerade was misleading. Clarified.
1091 Mon Apr 17 19:01:00 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1093 * APOP support can be compiled in to inc and msgchk using
1096 * To access an APOP host, specify -apop on the command line
1097 along with any -host or -user option.
1099 Fri Apr 14 23:10:44 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1101 * Upped the version number to 1.0.4+dev until the next nmh release.
1103 * Added a "releasing nmh" section to README.developers, while the
1104 process was fresh in my mind.
1106 Fri Apr 14 18:21:34 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1108 * Added new files README.developers, ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6, and
1109 ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html to DIST target in Makefile.in.
1111 * Released nmh-1.0.4.
1113 Tue Apr 11 21:37:03 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1115 * Applied Brian Campbell <bacam@tardis.ed.ac.uk>'s mhn.defaults.sh
1118 It appears that there shouldn't be quotes around the %s in the
1119 iso-8859-1 charset entry; xterm passes the remaining arguments
1120 to the program, quoting them means that xterm thinks they're
1121 part of the program's name.
1123 This %s isn't the same as the "Insert content subtype" one from
1124 mhshow-show-* -- it doesn't come from MIME headers and is safe not
1127 Sun Apr 09 13:03:59 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1129 * added check in fmt_compile() to handle a single-character
1130 format string. fmt_compile() depends on having an array of
1131 format characters with an empty item at the end. A
1132 single-character format would cause programs using this
1133 function to segfault because the algorithm used to decide on
1134 the length of the array mistakenly created a single-item array
1135 when the format string was one character. This eventually
1136 caused problems when the program attempted to test item+1
1139 Thu Apr 06 21:53:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1141 * Richard Coleman threw out a lot of old MH-specific files in nmh.
1142 Much of the stuff, indeed, is not worth saving, but there are
1143 nuggets that are very worthwhile, and should probably be added
1144 back in. Most important, IMHO, are the MH change logs, as they
1145 can help answer questions like "Why is this code like this?" or
1146 "How long has this been broken?" or "What was this ever used for?"
1148 I've added a new file to the nmh tree called
1149 ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6. It's cobbled together from the
1150 mh-6.8.4/papers/mh*/MHCHANGES files. I've re-ordered the entries
1151 to go from newest at the top to oldest at the bottom to match the
1152 ChangeLog convention. Unfortunately there are no change logs for
1153 versions of MH prior to 3 in the MH tar files available at
1154 <ftp://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/mh>. Also, it appears to me that there
1155 are MH-6.6 changes that aren't documented in the logs.
1157 I've also added ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html. This is
1158 based on mh-6.8.4/papers/changes/mh-changes.ms. The nroff format
1159 and its "catman"-type output are a pain to deal with, but I was
1160 loath to throw away the formatting, so I converted the file to
1161 HTML. The only actual markup in the body are the "<B>" and "<U>"
1162 tags, and "<" and ">" instead of '<' and '>', so it's quite
1163 doable to view the file in plain ASCII mode as well. Note that
1164 some of the changes this file documents as having been made in
1165 MH-6.8.4 may not be present in nmh -- Richard started with 6.8.3
1166 and later put in certain 6.8.4 stuff.
1168 Wed Apr 05 21:09:28 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1170 * Applied Eric Schnoebelen <eric@cirr.com>'s mhshowsbr.c patch
1171 fixing apparent bugs in Dan Winship's new security quoting code:
1173 Since upgrading, I've been getting the following errors
1174 while attempting to process some MIME messages:
1176 (1) Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
1181 (2) line 1/10 (END)Segmentation fault (core dumped)
1183 (2) appears to be due to the testing of an unset pointer in
1184 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux(). (1) appears to be caused by
1185 mis-quoting a filename being handed to the shell in
1186 mhshowsbr.c:show_content_aux().
1188 Resolving the pointer reference issue in
1189 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux() turned up a similar mis-quoting
1190 problem in the routine.
1192 Tue Mar 28 16:17:39 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1194 * Applied Todd.Miller@courtesan.com's patch to dropsbr.c to
1195 prevent core dumping on packf. Here's the note from his message:
1197 Since sizeof(buffer) == sizeof(tmpbuffer) packf will dump
1198 core on a file w/o a From line with a line >= BUFSIZ.
1199 I noticed this because I had a junk file in my mail
1202 Fri Mar 17 11:59:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1204 * wesley.craig@umich.edu did not document his previous KPOP patch,
1205 so I did so, and asked him to check what I wrote. Unfortunately
1206 he didn't notice my misunderstanding of his patch. I wrote that
1207 if you #define POPSERVICE "kpop", inc and msgchk will use KPOP
1208 exclusively, but if you leave it as "pop3", you can use Wesley's
1209 new -kpop switch on a given invocation. Instead, however, -kpop
1210 turned out to be necessary on every invocation, and a KPOP user
1211 complained. Applied Wesley's new patch, which makes things work
1212 like I thought his original patch did. After that, did one more
1213 clarifying pass to the documentation in inc.man and msgchk.man.
1215 Wed Mar 15 18:45:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1217 * When I fixed the long-standing makedir() bugs in January, I had
1218 the code call strtoul(..., 0), which I believed to be safe as all
1219 modes specified as ASCII constants in the nmh code started with a
1220 leading zero (signifying octal), which I did as it would work if
1221 internal constants were ever changed to hex. Unfortunately I was
1222 unaware of the "Folder-Protect:" .mh_profile entry, which
1223 mh-profile.man documents as an octal-only constant, with no
1224 leading zero required. I've changed the strtoul() call to an
1225 atooi() call and removed the misleading leading zeroes on the
1226 ASCII octal constants in the code and man pages. Also changed the
1227 "Folder-Protect:" example in the man page to something more
1228 interesting than a duplication of the default.
1230 * When I added my --enable-masquerade option, you'll note that I
1231 didn't make it --enable-nmh-masquerade. I find the --enable-nmh-*
1232 options too wordy and I'm not sure why Richard went that route.
1233 I've renamed them to just --enable-*, but the old versions will
1234 still work as well (they just aren't advertised).
1236 * Added a line to the "nmh configuration" output saying whether
1239 * Added a new README.developers file. From the file:
1241 This file is intended to provide a few tips for anyone doing
1242 development on nmh. Developers who learn things "the hard
1243 way" about the nmh codebase (as opposed to local info best
1244 encoded in a comment) are encouraged to share their wisdom
1247 Currently the topics are "autoconf files" and "directory structure".
1249 Tue Mar 14 12:41:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1251 * Applied, after some finessing,
1252 Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s --with-smtpservers patch:
1254 Here's a patch that allows you to add
1256 --with-smtpservers=<some.host.name>
1258 to the ./configure command line to set the "servers: " line in
1259 etc/mts.conf. Around here, we use "mailhost" so that all
1260 machines in the current domain just talk to a central machine
1261 and nothing else runs an MTA. Now, I can use
1263 --with-smtpservers=mailhost
1265 instead of having to remember to fix this by hand (and often
1266 forgetting to do so!).
1268 * Inspired by Simon's patch, added an --enable-masquerade option
1269 to configure. It will set the "masquerade:" line of mts.conf.
1270 You may specify a subset of the three types of masquerading, like
1271 --enable-masquerade="draft_from mmailid", or leave off explicit
1272 arguments to enable all three types.
1274 * Alphabetized the --enable and --with options in configure.in and
1275 INSTALL and added documentation of the two new options to the latter.
1277 * Added new dependency for mts.conf: Makefile. If this isn't
1278 done, then when you reconfigure nmh with new values for
1279 --enable-masquerade or --with-smtpservers, you'll fail to get an
1280 updated copy of mts.conf.
1282 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtimep.lex patch:
1284 It seems that some MUA's didn't handle y2k very well - ELM
1285 seems to be one of them, and Ultrix's DXmail (based on MH!).
1286 I've got a few emails this month that look like:
1288 575 Jan 00 Xxxxxx Xxxx 3603 ...
1290 22+ Jan 00 Xxx Xxxxx 1771 ...
1292 The first has "15 Jan 100" as the date and the second has
1293 "19 Jan 00" as the date. The following works around this so
1294 that scan, show, sortm, etc work ok.
1296 I put Simon's patch under the control of a new #define called
1297 FIX_NON_Y2K_COMPLIANT_MUA_DATES. There's some commentary in
1298 acconfig.h about when you might not want to #define it.
1300 * Created new dtimep.c-lexed with Simon's change using dtimep.lex
1301 lexed on Solaris 2.6. Added missing dependency in
1302 zotnet/tws/Makefile.in for dtimep.c: dtimep.c-lexed.
1304 * Added scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD format files.
1306 Mon Mar 13 21:32:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1308 * Applied Sullivan N. Beck <sbeck@cise.ufl.edu>'s mhshow-suffix patch:
1310 With the patch below, you can add lines like:
1312 mhshow-suffix-application/msword: .doc
1313 mhshow-suffix-application/PostScript: .ps
1315 to the mhn.defaults file to append the given suffix to a
1316 scratch file. This allows applications which require a
1317 certain suffix to run properly.
1319 * Removed -force_html from lynx entry in mhn.defaults.sh (I
1320 believe older versions of lynx lack that option) and added
1321 "mhshow-suffix-text/html: .html".
1323 * Modified username_extension masquerading to only use the
1324 extended address on generated [Resent-]From: lines and SMTP
1325 envelope From:. With Neil's original implementation, nmh's global
1326 idea of the username was changed, which would result in inc lying
1327 and saying you had no new mail because it was looking for a
1328 mailbox called, for instance, "dan-nmh" (where username was "dan"
1329 and $USERNAME_EXTENSION was "-nmh").
1331 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtime.c patch:
1333 There's a wrap-around problem that affects the implementation
1334 of Zeller's congruence in dtime.c. This causes the day-of-week
1335 calculations to fail for dates after Feb 29, 2000 (probably up
1336 until some year far in the future).
1338 Mon Mar 06 12:20:20 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1340 * Applied Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s msh.c patch:
1342 I finally tracked down the problem in msh that was causing
1343 errors whenever I tried to examine a 'mmdf' style mailbox.
1345 It turns out that not enough memory was being allocated with
1346 calloc(), causing memory pointers to be overwritten and
1349 Fri Mar 03 16:07:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1351 * Changed the new "plussed_user" option to mts.conf's
1352 "masquerade:" to "username_extension" after getting feedback from
1353 qmail users, who use '-' as a separator rather than '+'. Removed
1354 checking of $USERPLUS variable. Now check $USERNAME_EXTENSION,
1355 which needs to include the appropriate separator for your MTA
1356 ('-', '+', or whatever) as its first character.
1358 Thu Mar 02 23:04:30 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1360 * Added a new "boolean" type to mh.h and TRUE and FALSE constants.
1362 * Added a note to DIFFERENCES stating that it's out-of-date
1363 (Richard was the last one to update it) and that we should
1364 consider only documenting incompatibilities with MH there.
1366 * Implemented (and documented) a third kind of username
1367 masquerading: "plussed user" masquerading. This one was suggested
1368 by Neil Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>. It's based on sendmail's
1369 "plussed user" feature, where mail sent to <user>+<string> will be
1370 delivered to <user>. When it's enabled, it's controlled by the
1371 $USERPLUS environment variable. How is it enabled? Well, that
1374 * Renamed the "mmailid:" setting in mts.conf to "masquerade:", and
1375 changed it so that rather than being a boolean, it can be set to
1376 any combination of the three values "draft_from", "mmailid", and
1377 "plussed_user". Thus it is now possible to enable the three types
1378 of masquerading individually.
1380 * Fixed a bug with "mmailid" masquerading (dating back to MH?)
1381 where if it was turned on, ','s would no longer be considered
1382 GECOS field delimiters.
1384 Wed Mar 01 23:30:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1386 * Changed the GECOS-field '&' translation behavior to be
1387 controlled by the BSD42 #define rather than GCOS_HACK, since it's
1388 apparently always appropriate on OSes where BSD42 is #defined, and
1389 never appropriate on any other OSes. Thanks to Kimmo Suominen for
1390 responding to my "What is this code here for?" comment in mts.c
1391 and explaining the feature.
1393 Mon Feb 28 21:50:29 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1395 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3+dev (ideally this should be
1396 done by whoever makes a release tar file, immediately after doing
1399 * Applied Paul Fox <pgf-spam@foxharp.boston.ma.us>'s scansbr.c
1400 patch, posted to comp.mail.mh, which he says prevents loss of mail
1401 when inc'ing into a full filesystem.
1403 * Changed "echo > stamp-h.in" in Makefile.in to "date > stamp-h.in"
1404 so that stamp-h.in will be different each time configure.in and
1405 related files are changed, making it easier to check it in (which
1406 is necessary to prevent unnecessary autoconf calls).
1408 * My declaration of initgroups() in slocal.c to eliminate the "no
1409 prototype" warning wasn't portable (FreeBSD 3.[23] choked). Now
1410 use AC_EGREP_HEADER to see where initgroups() is declared, if
1413 Sun Feb 20 12:17:15 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1415 * Fix security hole in mhshowsbr.c which allowed untrusted shell
1416 code to be executed.
1418 * Released nmh 1.0.3.
1420 Thu Feb 10 10:54:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1422 * Oops. %-escapes on mhstore lines in mhn.defaults.sh should not
1423 be surrounded by single quotes, as a shell is not spawned when
1424 just saving files, and the filenames will end up with literal
1425 quotes embedded in them.
1427 Fri Feb 04 12:29:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1429 * Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
1430 got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
1431 the -help output. One theory is that they were making reference
1432 to the fact that clearly you know about the -help option since
1433 you're currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea
1434 to overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
1435 supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
1438 The other theory is that because you can say something like
1439 "mhstore -" and get "mhstore: - ambiguous. It matches" followed
1440 by the same list of switches you get with -help, they were saying
1441 you can "sorta" abbreviate "-help" as "-". You don't get the
1442 "Usage:" string, though, so it's not really the same thing.
1444 Thu Feb 03 17:52:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1446 * Applied wesley.craig@umich.edu's KPOP patches. According to him:
1448 The following patch fixes a problem with requesting a
1449 service key for a machine that has multiple 'A' records. It
1450 also makes "-kpop" a command line option, for users who
1451 would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".
1453 Did no testing of the new features, as I don't have access to a
1456 * Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
1458 * Modified INSTALL and config.h.in to reflect the new -kpop feature.
1460 Fri Jan 28 17:39:24 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1462 * All %-escapes in mhn.defaults that actually expand to something
1463 should be surrounded by single quotes. Added quotes to the ones
1464 in mhn.defaults.sh that were missing them.
1466 * Added check for lynx to write mhshow-show-text/html line in
1469 Thu Jan 27 12:22:25 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1471 * makedir() had multiple bugs dating back to MH. An octal
1472 constant was apparently being interpreted as decimal, resulting in
1473 directories with no user read or execute permissions, making
1474 nested directory creation fail. And there wasn't even an
1475 _attempt_ to set desired permissions (e.g. from "Folder-Protect:"
1476 in .mh_profile) on the outer directories of a nested directory.
1478 * A second `make install' would always fail because the check for
1479 whether mh_profile.5 existed was written incorrectly.
1481 Wed Jan 26 02:22:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1483 * Added documentation on both types of masquerading to post's man
1486 Tue Jan 25 22:58:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1488 * Doug's portability fix of my setgid inc autodetection had a
1489 caching bug -- if you re-ran configure, uip/Makefile would be
1490 corrupted, and installation would bomb out on OSes where inc needs
1493 * Implemented a new kind of email address masquerading. Usually,
1494 when a user writes a custom "From:" header in a draft, nmh uses it
1495 rather than generating one. However, the user's true address is
1496 used in the SMTP envelope "From:" and is revealed in the "Sender:"
1497 header. Now, when mmailid is set to non-zero, the envelope
1498 "From:" uses the address specified in the draft "From:" header,
1499 and there is no "Sender:" header. This is useful when sending on
1500 behalf of a remote POP3 account or when remote mail robots
1501 incorrectly use the envelope "From:" in preference to the body
1502 "From:". This processing has only been implemented for post, not
1503 for the undocumented spost (which was already missing some "From:"
1504 processing that post has).
1506 Mon Jan 24 22:26:06 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1508 * Got rid of the rest of the gcc -Wall warnings that I didn't have
1509 time for on 1999-07-15 (and, it would seem, some new ones people
1510 introduced since then). The primary ones were the warnings that
1511 default prototypes were being used for [v]snprintf() and
1512 str[n]casecmp(). As of right now, there are _no_ compilation
1513 warnings except on dtimep.c-lexed (at least under AIX 4.1.5 and
1516 Sun Jan 2 23:42:18 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1518 * Move mhtest from bindir to libdir.
1520 * Move sendfiles from libdir to bindir.
1522 * Updated sendfiles manpage to reflect this change.
1524 * Added documentation for -build and -file switches to repl and
1525 forw manpages (patch from Peter Maydell).
1527 * Fixed interaction between specifying -cc in profile and -group on
1530 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1532 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
1533 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
1534 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
1537 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1539 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
1540 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
1541 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
1542 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
1543 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
1544 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).
1546 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1548 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
1550 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1552 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
1553 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
1554 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
1555 caught again. This works for now.
1557 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
1559 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1561 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
1562 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
1564 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1566 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
1567 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
1569 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
1571 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
1573 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1575 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
1576 changes. Both need more cleanup.
1578 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1580 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
1581 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
1582 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
1583 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
1584 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
1587 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1589 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
1590 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
1591 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
1593 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
1594 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
1597 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1599 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
1600 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
1601 to a directory on another device with more free space.
1603 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1605 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
1606 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
1608 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1610 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
1613 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
1614 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
1616 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
1617 macros, regardless of platform.
1619 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
1620 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1622 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
1623 with x-conversions=gzip.
1625 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1627 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
1630 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
1631 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
1632 implicit definition of ioctl().
1634 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
1635 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
1636 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
1637 want to mess with them.
1639 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1641 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
1642 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
1644 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
1645 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
1647 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
1648 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
1649 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
1651 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
1652 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
1653 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
1655 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
1656 function initgroups.
1658 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
1661 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
1662 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
1665 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
1666 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
1669 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
1670 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
1674 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1676 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
1677 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
1678 preventing compilation on at least linux.
1680 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
1681 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
1683 Thu Sep 09 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1685 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
1687 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
1688 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
1689 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
1690 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
1692 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
1693 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
1695 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1697 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
1699 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1701 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
1702 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
1704 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1706 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
1707 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
1709 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
1710 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
1711 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
1712 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
1714 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
1715 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
1717 Sat Jun 09 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1719 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
1720 substitute it for mktemp if available.
1722 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1724 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
1725 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
1728 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
1730 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
1732 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
1734 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
1735 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
1737 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
1738 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
1739 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
1741 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
1742 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
1743 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
1745 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
1746 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
1747 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1749 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
1750 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
1753 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
1754 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1756 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
1757 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1759 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
1760 <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1762 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
1763 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
1764 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1766 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
1767 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1769 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
1770 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
1771 <elleron@servtech.com>.
1773 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
1774 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
1777 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
1778 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
1780 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
1781 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
1782 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
1783 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
1785 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
1786 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
1788 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1792 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
1793 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
1794 would not be changed.
1796 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
1797 one from the Apache web server.
1799 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
1800 (this should have been done a long time ago).
1802 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
1803 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
1804 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
1806 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
1808 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
1810 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
1811 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
1814 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
1815 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
1816 removes a bad race condition.
1818 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
1821 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
1822 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
1823 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
1825 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
1826 sequence information.
1828 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
1829 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
1831 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
1834 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
1837 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
1839 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
1840 interpret 034 as octal.
1842 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
1844 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
1845 mhstore, and mhbuild.
1847 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
1848 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
1850 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
1851 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
1853 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
1854 in the c_cefile structure when building.
1856 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
1857 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
1859 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
1860 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
1861 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
1863 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
1864 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
1865 and mhshow. Updated man pages
1867 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
1869 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
1871 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
1872 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
1875 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
1877 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
1878 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
1880 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
1881 header field information.
1883 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
1884 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
1886 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
1887 values when parsing a content.
1889 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
1890 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
1892 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
1893 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
1895 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
1896 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1898 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
1899 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
1901 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
1903 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
1905 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
1907 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
1909 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
1910 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
1913 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
1914 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
1916 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
1917 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
1918 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
1919 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
1920 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
1921 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
1924 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1926 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
1927 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
1928 buffer length checks for this parameter.
1930 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
1931 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
1933 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1935 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
1936 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
1937 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
1938 of the limits on the length of command lines.
1940 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
1941 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
1944 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
1945 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
1946 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
1947 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
1950 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1952 * Released nmh-0.27.
1954 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
1955 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
1957 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
1958 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
1959 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
1960 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
1963 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
1964 mhbuild returns an error.
1966 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
1967 rename the draft file.
1969 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
1970 use a global variable.
1972 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
1973 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
1975 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
1976 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
1978 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
1979 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
1980 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
1982 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
1983 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
1985 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
1986 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
1989 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
1990 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
1993 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
1994 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
1996 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
1997 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
1998 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
2000 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
2001 to new function output_content_folder.
2003 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
2004 new function output_content_file.
2006 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
2007 to new function parse_format_string.
2009 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
2010 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
2011 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
2012 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
2014 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
2015 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
2016 message/external file from ftp.
2018 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
2019 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
2020 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
2022 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
2023 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
2026 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
2029 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
2030 new file mhstoresbr.c
2032 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
2035 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
2036 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
2038 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
2039 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
2041 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
2042 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
2043 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
2045 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
2047 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
2049 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
2050 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
2053 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
2054 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
2056 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
2059 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
2061 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2063 * Released nmh-0.26.
2065 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
2066 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
2067 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
2068 is still the same (dashstuffing).
2070 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
2071 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
2072 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
2073 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
2074 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
2076 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
2077 But it is not on by default.
2079 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
2080 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
2082 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
2084 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
2086 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
2088 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
2090 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
2091 number of the "cur" message when packing.
2093 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2095 * Released nmh-0.25.
2097 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
2098 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
2099 uses the original name of the library.
2101 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
2102 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
2105 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
2106 list_content and list_debug.
2108 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
2110 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
2111 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.
2113 1998-02-27 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2115 * Released nmh-0.24.
2117 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
2119 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
2120 are given, that order doesn't matter.
2122 * Fix bug in seq_list.c when realloc'ing for
2123 large sequence line.
2125 1998-02-23 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2127 * Released nmh-0.23.
2129 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
2131 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
2132 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan
2133 content, decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary
2134 string). I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
2136 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
2137 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
2140 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
2142 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
2144 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
2146 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
2147 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
2149 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
2150 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.
2152 * Add note to MACHINES file that on Linux, configure
2153 doesn't find the functions sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
2155 * Fix configuration for machines that don't have (or find)
2156 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
2158 1998-02-11 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2160 * Released nmh-0.22.
2162 * Add a configure check for sigsetjmp. Add some conditional
2163 #define's in h/signals.h in case it's not found.
2165 * Added additional notes about -auto switch in mhn man page.
2167 * Added note about MM_CHARSET environment variable to
2168 mh-profile(5) man page.
2170 * Fix signal problem in mhn.c (change setjmp/longjmp to
2171 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp).
2173 1998-02-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2175 * Released nmh-0.22-pre1.
2177 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
2178 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
2180 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
2182 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
2183 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
2184 entry point for parsing MIME files.
2186 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
2187 source message on the standard input.
2189 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
2191 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
2192 rather than -rfc934mode.
2194 * Fix mhbuild, so that Content-Description and RFC-822 comments
2195 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
2198 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
2199 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).
2201 * Restore HP specific code to zotnet/tws/lexstring.c. Apparently
2204 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2206 * Released nmh-0.21.
2208 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
2209 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.
2211 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what transfer
2214 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what character set
2215 to use for text contents.
2217 * Removed old hpux specific code from zotnet/tws/lexstring.c
2219 1998-02-02 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2221 * Released nmh-0.21-pre2.
2223 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
2225 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
2226 header fields as per RFC-2047.
2228 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
2229 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
2230 spaces between encoded word are.
2232 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
2234 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
2235 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
2237 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
2238 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
2239 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
2241 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
2243 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
2244 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
2246 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.
2248 * Added support for %(decode) to fmtdump.c.
2250 * check_charset() now accepts US-ASCII as a subset of any
2251 ISO-8859-X character set.
2253 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
2256 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
2257 permissions, not write permissions.
2259 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
2260 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
2262 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
2265 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2267 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
2269 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
2270 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
2272 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
2273 message contains valid character set.
2275 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
2276 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
2278 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
2279 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
2281 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
2282 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
2283 between an encoded word and normal text.
2285 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
2286 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
2288 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
2289 as a RFC-2047 header field.
2291 * The command install-mh now recognizes the switches -version
2294 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
2295 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
2298 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
2299 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
2301 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
2302 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
2304 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
2306 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2308 * Released nmh-0.20.
2310 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
2312 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.
2314 * Changed the default format file for mhl (mhl.format) to
2315 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
2316 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
2318 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
2319 and the To: line was missing.
2321 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
2323 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2325 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
2327 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
2328 watch the POP transaction.
2330 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
2331 first, and use it if available.
2333 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
2334 first, and use it if available.
2336 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2338 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
2340 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
2341 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
2342 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
2345 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
2346 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
2347 returns the state FLDPLUS.
2349 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
2350 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
2353 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
2355 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
2356 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
2358 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
2360 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
2361 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
2363 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
2364 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
2365 message to which you are replying.
2367 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
2368 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
2369 making group replies.
2371 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
2373 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2375 * Released nmh-0.19.
2377 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
2378 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
2380 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
2381 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
2382 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
2383 to the end of the man page.
2385 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
2386 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
2387 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
2388 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
2389 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
2390 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
2392 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
2395 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
2396 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
2397 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
2399 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
2400 the next available number above the message number you wish
2403 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
2404 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
2406 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
2407 file sbr/seq_print.c
2409 * flist will now update the current folder.
2411 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
2412 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
2413 but now undocumented.
2415 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
2418 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
2419 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
2421 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
2423 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
2424 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
2426 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2428 * Released nmh-0.18.
2430 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
2431 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
2432 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
2434 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
2435 retains the public/private status of sequences.
2437 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
2438 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
2439 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
2440 previous public/private status.
2442 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
2445 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
2448 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
2449 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
2450 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
2452 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
2453 take option to determine whether it should get current
2454 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
2455 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
2457 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
2459 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
2460 wait for stopped processes.
2462 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
2463 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
2465 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2467 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
2469 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
2470 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
2472 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
2473 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
2475 * Change the way that memory for message status is
2476 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
2477 the folder/message structure. This required changing
2478 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
2480 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
2483 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
2486 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
2488 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
2489 the debugging output.
2491 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
2492 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
2494 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2496 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
2498 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
2499 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
2501 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
2503 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
2504 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
2505 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
2506 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
2507 in the given sequence.
2509 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
2510 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
2511 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
2512 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
2513 subdirectories of a given directory.
2515 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
2516 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
2517 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
2519 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
2520 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
2522 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
2524 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
2527 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
2528 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
2529 fields are now calculated at runtime.
2531 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
2532 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
2533 are calculated at runtime.
2535 Sun Nov 30 19:14:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2537 * Released nmh-0.18-pre2.
2539 * Add paragraph to man page for install-mh and to INSTALL file
2540 about checking for global mh.profile.
2542 * Renamed m_find() to context_find().
2543 Renamed m_replace() to context_replace().
2544 Renamed m_delete() to context_del().
2545 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
2546 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
2547 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
2549 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
2550 adding message to folder itself.
2552 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
2553 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
2554 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
2557 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
2558 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
2561 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
2562 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
2563 is the same as the direct smtp code).
2565 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
2566 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
2568 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
2569 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
2570 code to use it yet).
2572 Thu Nov 13 18:42:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2574 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.
2576 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never
2577 called with a value larger than 30 mintues.
2579 * Fixed race condition in rmm and refile, so that
2580 context is updated before external rmmproc is called.
2582 * Removed all the OVERHEAD code.
2584 * Move code to add message to folder from refile.c
2587 Fri Jul 25 19:39:29 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2589 * Did some rearranging of the internals of inc.c.
2591 * Make -inplace the default for anno, forw, dist, and repl.
2593 * Changed --enable-smtp to --with-mts={smtp,sendmail}
2595 * Created new directory mts/sendmail for direct sendmail
2596 interface (although it currently still uses SMTP).
2598 * Removed all the TMA (trusted mail agent) code
2600 * Removed all the TTYD (terminal access daemon) code
2602 * Removed all the MF (uucp filtering) code.
2604 * Removed all the code for BERK.
2606 * Removed all the code for stand-alone delivery (MHMTS).
2608 * Split the file mts/sendmail/smail.c into sendmail.c and
2609 smtp.c. Changed the name of the directory to mts/smtp.
2611 * Changed autoconf to use @sysconfdir@ for location of
2612 configuration files.
2614 * Changed #define in mhn.c from FTP to BUILTIN_FTP.
2616 Mon Jul 21 03:22:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2618 * Released nmh-0.17.
2620 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
2622 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
2623 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
2625 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
2628 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
2629 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
2631 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
2632 number of refiled message.
2634 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
2636 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
2637 for return value of wait().
2639 * Change configure to also check /bin for "more".
2641 Sat Jul 12 00:02:23 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2643 * Released nmh-0.16.
2645 Mon Jun 23 20:13:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2647 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
2649 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
2650 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
2651 deal with binary messages, yet).
2653 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
2655 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
2657 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
2658 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
2659 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
2660 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
2661 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
2662 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
2664 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
2665 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
2667 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
2668 From MH-6.8.4 patch.
2670 * Fix double free of ctinfo in user_content when using
2671 #forw with single message. From John MacMillan (and
2674 * Changed -mhnproc switch for show, to -showmimeproc.
2676 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".
2678 * Added "mime" option to "whatnow", which calls the program
2679 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
2682 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
2685 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
2687 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
2688 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
2689 which used unsigned chars by default.
2691 Sat Jun 21 01:21:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2693 * Released nmh-0.15.
2695 * Added new form "scan.unseen" to distribution. It marks messages
2696 which are in any sequence in Unseen-Sequence.
2698 * Do some rearranging of date/time code in zotnet/tws/dtime.c
2700 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
2702 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
2705 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
2706 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
2707 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
2709 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
2710 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
2712 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
2714 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
2715 they conflict with defines on AIX.
2717 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
2718 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
2719 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
2720 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
2722 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
2723 and put in own subroutine.
2725 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
2726 and put in own subroutine.
2728 * Moved code to remove messages from folder into own
2729 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and
2730 refile.c to use new routine.
2732 Fri May 16 06:09:31 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2734 * Renamed m_seqok to seq_nameok.
2736 * Changed m_setunseen, msh, mshcmds, flist, and scan to use
2739 * Changed m_seqflag to return the number of a sequence rather
2740 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
2741 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
2743 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
2746 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before
2747 adding message to sequence.
2749 * Renamed function m_setvis to m_setunseen, and renamed
2750 corresponding file in sbr.
2752 * Renamed function m_setseq to m_setprev, and renamed corresponding
2755 * Changed mark.c and pick.c to use m_seqaddsel and m_seqdelsel.
2757 * Added new function m_seqdelsel to m_seqdel.c, which deletes
2758 all selected messages from a sequence.
2760 * Added new function m_seqaddsel to m_seqadd.c, which adds all
2761 selected messages to a sequence.
2763 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,
2766 Thu May 15 00:53:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2768 * Renamed function pack_folder to m_packfolder, and moved it
2769 from uip/folder.c into its own file sbr/m_packfolder.c
2771 Wed May 14 23:38:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2773 * Changed function m_gmsg to m_readfolder. Renamed file
2774 sbr/m_gmsg.c to sbr/m_readfolder.c.
2776 Mon May 5 19:57:11 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2778 * Expanded rcvtty man page, and added small patch from
2779 MH-6.8.4 distribution.

2783 * Released nmh-0.14.
2785 * Comment out configure test and code for tgetent to allocate its
2786 own termcap buffer when passed a NULL argument.
2788 Sat Apr 26 03:46:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2790 * Added new options `-checkmime', `-nocheckmime', and `-mhnproc'
2791 to show. Restructured code to handle options to various
2792 `procs' better. Deprecated `-noshowproc' option and NOMHNPROC
2793 environment variable.
2795 * Added new man page `mh-draft' which documents the
2796 draft folder facility in nmh.
2798 * Renamed fmtsbr.h to fmt_scan.h. Renamed fmtcompile.h
2801 * split fmtsbr.c into fmt_scan.c and fmt_new.c. Renamed
2802 fmtcompile.c to fmt_compile.c, and formataddr.c to
2805 * `send -help' wasn't showing the -(no)mime and -split
2808 Fri Apr 25 02:50:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2810 * Released nmh-0.13.
2812 * Changed mhpath so it doesn't abort if a message sequence
2813 such as "mhpath all" expands to more than 1000 messages.
2814 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
2815 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
2818 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
2819 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
2821 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2823 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if
2824 necessary. So `folders' can now handle more than 300 folders.
2826 Tue Apr 22 14:01:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2828 * Change configure to use a compile check to see if the tm struct
2829 has tm_gmtoff, rather than using egrep.
2831 Mon Apr 21 02:19:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

2857 will suppress the display of the message header.
2859 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
2861 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c

2864 * Add mhnproc to the list of `procs' in mh-profile.man.
2866 * Add configure test for lorder and tsort commands.
2868 * Commented out the padding in the `msgs` struct in h/mh.h

2871 500 elements at a time (rather than MAXFOLDERS / 5).
2873 * Add note to man page for mhmail that zero length messages are
2874 not sent. Need to use -body "" to send empty messages.
2876 * zotnet/mts/mts.c : compare character with '\0', not NULL.
2878 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
2880 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
2881 folder/message structure when done with folder.
2883 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is
2884 defined even if message is missing "From " line.

2898 The "From " line is now removed from all messages.
2900 * inc now saves the date from the "From " envelope in the
2901 Delivery-Date header for all messages.
2903 * sbr/m_getfld.c: Clean up processing of Return-Path and

2906 Mon Mar 17 19:03:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2908 * client.c: cast iaddr to int before comparing return value
2909 of inet_addr with NOTOK.
2911 Tue Mar 11 04:38:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2913 * Grep test for signal names was failing on some OS'es because
2914 of missing tabs in regex.

2943 * rcvtty.c : Changed to use #define UTMP_FILE (if exists) rather
2944 than hard coded "/etc/utmp".
2946 * Released nmh-0.08.
2948 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
2949 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of
2950 locking database itself.
2952 Thu Feb 27 05:28:09 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2954 * Added slocal action `mmdf' to deliver to a file in mmdf format.
2956 * Changed the slocal actions `file' and `>' to always deliver in
2957 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
2960 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
2961 rather than mmdf format.
2963 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
2964 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
2965 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
2966 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
2968 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
2970 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2972 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
2975 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2976 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2977 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
2979 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2980 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2981 rcvpack so you can choose the preferred format.
2983 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2985 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
2986 can still easily change this in config.h).
2988 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
2989 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
2990 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
2992 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2994 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather
2995 than tzset and external timezone variable.

3006 Tue Feb 11 01:29:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3008 * Add check to configure, so that if ruserpass, or _ruserpass
3009 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
3011 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
3012 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
3015 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
3016 built-in FTP client in mhn.

3029 * Released nmh-0.06.
3031 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
3032 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
3034 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
3035 many such machines around anymore.
3037 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
3038 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
3040 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
3041 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
3043 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3045 * Check lex generated file in zotnet/tws and use
3046 pre-generated version if necessary.
3048 * Released nmh-0.05.
3050 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
3051 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
3052 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
3053 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
3055 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
3056 be linked in one pass.
3058 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3060 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
3061 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
3063 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3065 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
3067 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3069 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
3070 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
3071 become the current folder.
3073 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3075 * Released nmh-0.04.
3077 * Define ospeed and PC in termsbr.c is OS doesn't have
3080 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3082 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
3083 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
3084 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
3086 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3088 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
3089 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
3091 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3093 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
3094 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
3097 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
3098 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
3100 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3102 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
3103 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
3104 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
3105 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
3106 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
3107 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
3109 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3111 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
3112 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
3114 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
3115 a file (currently need to specify full path).
3117 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3119 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
3120 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
3122 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3124 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
3125 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
3126 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
3128 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3130 * Released nmh-0.03.
3132 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
3133 .mh_sequence file existed.
3135 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
3136 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
3138 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
3139 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
3142 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3144 * Changed flist option -unseen to -[no]all. Cleaned up
3147 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3149 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
3150 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
3151 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
3153 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3155 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
3156 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
3157 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
3159 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3161 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL
3162 and allocate its own buffer. Borrowed from zsh.
3164 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
3166 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3168 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
3169 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
3170 directory from where the source code is located.
3172 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3174 * Released nmh-0.02.
3176 Wed Jan 1 17:41:52 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

3181 Tue Dec 31 03:07:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3183 * Changed code to use strerror, rather than using sys_errlist
3184 and sys_nerr directly.

3188 * -compat switch from install-mh removed.
3190 * Changed the default POP port from "pop" to "pop3".
3192 Sat Dec 28 13:25:05 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3194 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
3195 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
3196 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
3197 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
3198 rather than in script.
3200 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3202 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
3204 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with
3205 macro defined on Solaris.
3207 Thu Dec 26 02:50:15 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3209 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
3210 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
3212 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
3213 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
3214 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
3215 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
3218 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3220 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
3221 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.
3223 * Fixed configure test so that termcap variable ospeed is
3226 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3228 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
3230 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included
3231 in mhn.c. Changed md5 to use memset and memcpy.
3233 Fri Dec 20 02:29:37 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3235 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
3236 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
3238 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3240 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
3241 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
3242 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
3243 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
3244 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
3245 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
3247 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3249 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
3251 * Released nmh-0.01.
3253 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
3254 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
3255 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
3258 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3260 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
3263 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3265 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
3266 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
3268 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3270 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
3271 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
3272 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
3273 script to find_program.
3275 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3277 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
3278 speed up -recurse option.
3280 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
3281 yet, but it compiles :-)
3283 * Changed default location for install to
3284 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
3285 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
3286 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
3289 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
3290 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
3291 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
