1 2008-04-05 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
3 * bug #18655: fix use of admonish() for a fatal error (should
4 be adios(); only actual effect would be wrong exit code).
5 Thanks to Craig Leres for spotting this.
7 2008-04-05 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
9 * bug #20028 (Debian bug 399271): fix code assuming that pointer
10 differences were 32 bits -- thanks to Dean Gaudet for the patch.
12 2008-01-25 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
14 * uip/mhshowsbr.c (show_all_messages): Be more generous when parsing
17 2007-11-04 Joel Reicher <joel@panacea.null.org>
19 * Changed done() link overriding to function pointer. Return type
20 is now void so that exit() can be used as done() callback. Dead
21 code return from all done()s removed, with return 1 in main()
22 following done() (should never be reached).
24 2007-08-21 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
26 * Red Hat Bug #253342: inc.c, utils.c, utils.h: When inc is run with
27 the -silent flag, don't exit(1) for no apparent reason.
29 2007-03-12 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
31 * bug #18630, #18631, #18632, #18634: various patches from
32 Craig Leres fixing error message argument problems.
34 2007-03-12 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
36 * bug #15212: configure.in, acconfig.h: remove configure test for
37 broken AT&T vi. This test was broken (it was always returning
38 failure even for non-broken vi implementations) and
39 unfixable. Nobody should be using AT&T vi any more so I have
40 simply moved it back to being a setting you can put manually into
41 acconfig.h if you must.
43 2006-10-24 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
45 * uip/sendsbr.c: with attachformat values of 1 or 2, add
46 name= portion to Content-Type header. This makes them
47 consistent with attachformat value 0. And it allows mhstore
48 to use that (file)name when extracting attachments.
50 2006-08-26 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
52 * configure.in: If we're not using dotlocking, there is no need to set
55 2006-03-30 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
57 * uip/sendsbr.c: with attachformat values of 1 or 2, only
58 generate Content-Disposition headers for MIME attachments, not
59 for the message contents themselves. Microsoft Outlook Build
60 10.0.6626, at least, doesn't show the message contents if they
61 have Content-Disposition.
63 2006-03-09 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
65 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c (decode_rfc2047): Don't close the iconv descriptor
68 2006-03-08 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
70 * (mh_strcasecmp): Rename the private strcasecmp function to
71 mh_strcasecmp. This keeps the newer gnu linker happy.
73 2006-03-05 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
75 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c: don't try to malloc 0 bytes if an RFC2047
76 encoded block is empty
78 2006-03-04 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
80 * etc/Makefile.in: use INSTALL_SCRIPT to install scripts;
81 this allows INSTALL_PROGRAM to be set to 'install -s' so
82 binaries are stripped on installation. Apparently the BSDs
85 2006-02-25 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
87 * uip/sendsbr.c: replaced st_mtim with st_mtime, that's what
88 it should have been. Added #include of h/tws.h to pick up
91 2006-02-20 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
93 * h/mh.h, h/prototypes.h, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, uip/send.c,
94 uip/sendsbr.c, uip/viamail.c, uip/whatnowsbr.c, man/send.man:
95 added -attachformat switch to send, to support alternate MIME
96 header contents when using -attach. See send man page for
99 * man/mhbuild.man: wrapped one appearance of "Content-Disposition"
100 with quotes, to be consistent with others.
102 2006-02-20 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
104 * h/utils.h, sbr/utils.c, uip/flist.c, uip/folder.c: Move duplicate
105 function num_digits into utils.c
107 2006-02-19 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
109 * sbr/m_draft.c, sbr/utils.c, uip/folder.c, uip/inc.c,
110 uip/mhstoresbr.c, uip/popi.c, uip/refile.c: Add create_folder()
111 function, replacing duplicate code during folder creation.
113 2006-02-18 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
115 * h/mime.h, h/mhparse.h, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, uip/mhfree.c,
116 man/mhbuild.man, docs/TODO: added support for an optional
117 Content-Disposition header in mhbuild (only). Its contents
118 are supplied between {}, positioned after the optional [], in
119 a mhbuild directive. If the contents do not contain a
120 "filename=" parameter, and the directive has a filename, or
121 something else that ends with "name=", then that will be used
122 to add a "filename=" parameter to the header.
124 2006-02-12 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
126 * docs/TODO: added RFC2183 to reference of RFC1806 for
127 Content-Disposition header.
129 2006-01-31 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
131 * uip/mhbuild.c, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, man/mhbuild.man: added
132 -nocontentid switch, to disable generation of Content-ID:
133 header in MIME messages. (Also added -contentid for
134 symmetry.) The default configuration of Microsoft Outlook,
135 Build 10.0.3416 in particular, doesn't see attachments in
136 incoming messages if there are Content-ID headers, see
137 http://home.cwru.edu/~wrv/eudoraoutlookfix.html. This allows
138 users to easily accomodate that by adding
139 mhbuild: -nocontentid to their .mh_profile.
141 2006-01-29 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
143 * bug 4360: uip/replsbr.c: remove trailing newlines from components
144 to fix bug with spaces at the end of Subject/References in replies
146 2006-01-18 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
148 * configure.in: use AS_HELP_STRING for formatting help messages
150 * configure.in, sbr/fmt_scan.c: add autoconf magic to support
151 old systems that don't support multibyte character sets
153 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: fix bug with insertion of newline being wrong if
154 the num function was used at the end of the format buffer
156 2006-01-17 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
158 * uip/post.c, uip/spost.c: in make_bcc_file (), use same
159 logic as in finish_headers () to detect whether there is an
160 existing From: line in the draft. If draft_from masquerade
161 flag is enabled, this allows the From: to be obeyed in the
162 Bcc, instead of the old behavior of always replacing it with
165 2006-01-17 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
167 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: more robust multi-byte/column support for field
168 widths, restoring right justification feature
170 2006-01-16 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
172 * h/aliasbr.h, h/rcvmail.h, man/Makefile.in, man/slocal.man,
173 sbr/lock_file.c, uip/aliasbr.c, uip/dropsbr.c, uip/post.c,
174 uip/slocal.c, man/mh-mts.man: remove remnants of code for MMDF
176 * uip/scansbr.c: multiply buffer size by MB_CUR_MAX so multi-byte
179 2006-01-14 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
181 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: Turn the PUTSF macro into a function capable of
182 handling multi column characters.
184 2006-01-07 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
186 * Remove sbr/strerror.c -- strerror(3) is defined in C89.
188 2006-01-06 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
190 * patch #3968: Move the add() function from its own file (add.c) and
191 into utils.c. There was also a duplicate add() function in mf.c which
194 2006-01-02 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
196 * Remove sbr/pwd.c file, moving the pwd() function into sbr/utils.c.
198 2006-01-01 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
200 * patch #3967: Create a mh_xrealloc function to prevent mistakes when
203 2006-01-01 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
205 * patch #3966: Create a mh_xmalloc function to prevent mistakes when
208 2005-12-24 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
210 * Bug #15285: Don't use $< in target rules in makefiles, as POSIX
211 says it's only defined in inference rules. (BSD make was expanding
212 $< to the empty string in the rule for building sbr/dtimep.c, which
213 causes lex to apparently hang because it's reading from stdin.)
215 2005-12-24 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
217 * Completely redo db library checking -- we now check for working
218 (include file, library) pairs rather than checking for headers and
219 libraries separately. We also now provide --with-ndbm=lib and
220 --with-ndbmheader=header options to configure to handle situations
221 where configure's autodetection fails.
223 2005-12-21 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
225 * Fix stupid accidental dependence on a bash quirk in previous
226 configure script change.
228 2005-12-15 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
230 * Improve checking for Berkeley db libraries: configure should now
231 find a suitable library on systems with new gdbm where
232 compatibility functions are in the gdbm_compat library, and on
235 2005-12-13 Michael Forrest <mef@computer.org>
237 * Fedora Bug #163760: sbr/context_read.c (context_read): Ensure that
238 the context is only read once.
240 2005-12-12 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
242 * uip/sendsbr.c (annoaux): Fix the call to annotate() fixing a bug
243 which prevented repl from properly annotating messages.
245 2005-12-07 Jon Steinhart <nmh@fourwinds.com>
247 * Fixed a bug where anno -append put the headers in the wrong place
248 if applied to a message that didn't contain any headers.
250 * Added a special value of "all" to the -number option that causes
251 anno -delete to delete all matching components instead of just
254 * Added new -preserve and -nopreserve options. Using -preserve
255 retains the original last accessed and last modified times on
258 2005-12-05 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
260 * Fedora Bug #174983: configure.in: Fix the AC_PATH_PROG default when
261 vi isn't found during build.
263 2005-11-19 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
265 * bug #14977: sbr/context_read.c: special case an MHCONTEXT of
266 "/dev/null" and don't try to lock it.
268 * bug #9228, debian bug #146449: man/mh-profile.man: make it clearer
269 that lower case environment variables (and in particular mheditor)
270 are internal to nmh and not intended to be set by the user.
272 2005-11-09 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
274 * sbr/mf.c: fix buffer overrun with absurdly long addresses
275 (only causes crashes if scan is run with '-width 16536' or similar)
277 * bug #7917: sbr/context_foil.c, sbr/context_read.c,
278 sbr/context_save.c: mark 'no context' with NULL rather than
279 "/dev/null" so we don't inadvertently try to lock /dev/null (which
280 takes up to a minute in some locking configurations and makes post
283 * patch #3913: uip/post.c: pass some globals into sm_init() so that
284 it uses SASL if necessary. (This bug was preventing Bcc'd emails
285 from being sent via SASL authenticated SMTP.)
287 * bug #9813: uip/rmf.c: don't crash if there's no Current-Folder
288 entry in the context file.
290 2005-11-13 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
292 * bug #7833: uip/Makefile.in: remove link to install-mh that caused
293 problems on some systems
295 * bug #739: Makefile.in: install target now depends on all to avoid
296 problem on case-insensitive file systems with the INSTALL file
298 2005-11-10 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
300 * Fedora Bug #172838: configure.in: Fix the AC_PATH_PROG default when
301 sendmail isn't found during build.
303 2005-11-09 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
305 * h/aliasbr.h: fix a non-ANSI prototype.
307 2005-11-08 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
309 * Simon Burge: acconfig.h, configure.in, uip/rcvtty.c, uip/slocal.c:
310 fix to handle getutent() on NetBSD
312 * INSTALL, README, docs/README.about, man/nmh.man: update most
313 references to the web page and mailing list locations
315 * bug #10230: etc/Makefile.in, man/Makefile.in, uip/Makefile.in:
316 Michael De La Rue: prepend DESTDIR to install locations
318 * configure.in, */Makefile.in, mts/smtp/smtp.c: replace obsolete
321 2005-11-06 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
323 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, sbr/fmt_scan.c, h/prototypes.h: fix various
324 possible overruns of the buffers in fmt_scan() which would cause
325 crashes if scan was run with '-width 16536' or similar.
327 * uip/popsbr.c: fix compile error which only showed up if nmh
328 was configured with --enable-apop.
330 * Debian Bug# 245932, RedHat Bug# 172388: uip/mhparse.c: don't
331 crash when handling a multipart MIME message with an invalid
332 Content-Type header (file handle was being fclose()d twice).
334 * sbr/Makefile.in: adjust lex command to work on both old and
335 new versions of flex.
337 * configure.in: add an AC_PREREQ() so autoconf 2.13 gives a helpful
338 error message and the Debian autoconf-version-guessing wrapper
339 doesn't guess wrongly.
341 2005-11-02 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
343 * Debian Bug# 320069: Nick Rusnov: uip/popsbr.c: fail when
344 kpop connection attempted without KPOP support compiled in
346 * Debian Bug# 320090: Nick Rusnov: sbr/Makefile.in: fix for newer
347 version of flex and remove autogenerated file from cvs
349 * patch #1155: uip/flist.c: speed up flist by skipping stat on
350 files with numbers as names
352 * docs/Makefile.in: include new files in distribution
354 2005-10-11 Bill Wohler <wohler@newt.com>
356 * docs/FAQ: fold questions into MH FAQ and distribute that instead
358 2005-10-05 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
360 * Harald Geyer: h/mh.h, uip/replsbr.c: back out previous change
361 (fork/vfork) and replace with code that handles the issue directly
363 2005-05-18 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
365 * Debian Bug# 143485: Nick Rusnov: h/mh.h: use fork instead of
368 * Debian Bug# 261592: Harald Geyer: uip/mhlsbr.c, uip/replsbr.c:
369 test/report error writing to stdout
371 * mts/smtp/smtp.c, uip/popsbr.c: correct SASL include file locations
373 * docs/COMPLETION-BASH: bash completion definitions from Debian
375 * patch #2863: savannah@brisammon.fastmail.fm: sbr/folder_read.c:
376 fix a bug affecting AFS where nmh was setting the READONLY flag
377 for a folder even when you do have write access to the folder
379 * Carl Mummert: h/fmt_compile.h, man/mh-format.man,
380 sbr/fmt_compile.c, sbr/fmt_scan.c: add unquote() function for
381 removing quotes from RFC-2822 encoded headers
383 2005-02-23 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
385 * use iconv to convert RFC-2047 encoded headers to the
386 character set used by the current locale
388 * sbr/folder_read.c fix Debian bug #202667: crash when a
389 message's filename overflows an int when converted
391 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
392 versions (from automake 1.9.5)
394 2005-02-21 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
396 * sbr/getpass.c fix bug where inc crashed on failing to reopen
399 2005-01-27 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
401 * Added -proxy option to inc and msgchk. Based on old patch
402 from Michael Richardson.
404 * On systems where it is available, use nl_langinfo to get the
405 character set if MM_CHARSET is unset
407 2005-01-21 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
409 * sbr/check_charset.c US-ASCII is a subset of UTF-8 so can be
410 handled directly when UTF-8 is being used
412 2004-12-17 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
414 * uip/mhmisc.c Fix -part option to mhshow/mhlist/mhstore to
415 find sub-parts of the specified part
417 2004-11-19 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
419 * h/prototypes.h, sbr/folder_addmsg.c, uip/mhstoresbr.c,
420 uip/rcvstore.c, uip/refile.c: Added mail directory argument to
421 folder_addmsg in order to make it possible to provide a path to
422 the ext_hook call that is mailpath-based. A problem existed when
423 a folder was a symbolic link and the pwd call would return the
424 path relative to the filesystem, not to mailpath. A new argument
425 was needed because there was otherwise no reasonable way to get
428 2004-11-16 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
430 * sbr/folder_pack.c: Fixed problem where the refile hook was being
431 called after a message was renamed so that it wasn't around for
432 the hook. The hook is now called before the message file is
435 * sbr/folder_addmsg.c: Fixed wrong directory for hook when
436 refiling with -src option.
438 2004-10-15 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
440 * uip/sortm.c: Fixed calling of external hooks.
442 2004-10-12 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
444 * uip/inc.c: Fixed another weird bug caused by the static
445 mailpath being overwritten.
447 * uip/sendsbr.c: Fixed bug that caused anno to mangle headers.
449 * sbr/lock_file.c: Fixed strange bug that prevented a lock from
450 ever being obtained if getting it failed the first time. The
451 problem was that the string of XXXXXX that is required by
452 mkstemp() was overwritten the first time through, and so all
453 subsequent times failed because mkstemp() failed. The fix
454 reinitializes the tmp file string.
456 * uip/inc.c: Fixed bug in which the static maildir was overwritted
457 if a format string was read from the profile.
459 * sbr/folder_delmsgs.c: Fixed bug that was producing an incorrect
460 path for the external hook.
462 2003-10-06 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
464 * uip/slocal.c, configure.in: db configuration fix for Debian; yet
465 another location for ndbm.
467 2003-09-30 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
469 * Fix 'pick' so handling of options "-list" and "-seq" are
471 * Fix 'inc' realloc error when bringing in more than 100 msgs
473 * Patches submitted by Nick Rusnov from Debian archive applied:
476 136976 - Handle binary content messages
477 143427 - mh-format.man typo
478 144098 - 'spost; should have same behavior as 'post'
479 w.r.t. mts.conf masquerade line
480 149745 - slocal ignores 'N' result of previous command
481 152728 - increase SMTP timeouts to conform to RFC 1123
482 The timeouts suggested by the RFC seem long
483 to me - but the RFC is still listed as active.
484 181867 - typo for nmh.man
486 2003-08-10 Jeffrey C Honig <jch@honig.net>
488 * Fix problem where parsing of address/date fields in fmt_compile
489 is optimized to the first instance. The first instance may be in
490 contitional code which will result in cached data to
491 be used. Instead, convert c_flags to a flags field from a boolean
492 and parse on the first use.
493 * Remove some unused flag bits.
495 Fri Jul 01 22:02:00 2003 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
497 * Applied fixes for configuration problems with Solaris and
498 systems with gdbm instead of db1 (includes bug #2024)
500 #578 - repl leaks umask
501 #1393 - sortm core dumps
502 #1650 - msh leaks file descriptors
503 #1730 - Double free() in mhfree.c:free_encoding()
504 #3356 - In-Reply-To header in default replcomps should be
506 * Revised man page for mh-format (bug #2031)
507 * New replcomps, etc, with Fcc: +outbox in default versions
509 Sat Mar 17 03:18:15 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
511 * Ken Hornstein's configure.in Cyrus SASL checks were doing
512 `x"$with_cyrus_sasl" != "no"' instead of `... != x"no"'.
514 Tue Mar 06 21:04:27 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
516 * Found some historical information about MH in RFC 808.
517 Supplemented it with info from Jerry Peek's MH book and added it
518 to docs/README.about.
520 Tue Feb 6 20:35:40 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
522 * sbr/dtime.c Use the same Y2K correction code as dtimep.lex
524 * sbr/dtimep.lex Restrict the parser to accept either
525 a numerical timezone offset, or a symbolic one (e.g. EST),
526 but not both (Since "2000 -400 EDT" might cause a double
527 subtraction of 60 minutes if both are parsed. One should be
530 Mon Feb 05 20:22:54 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
532 * -L isn't sufficient for specifying the path of the Cyrus SASL
533 shared library. That'll allow us to link successfully, but on
534 many/most OSes that won't allow us to find libsasl at runtime. On
535 Solaris, we need to specify the library path with -R as well (or
536 else the user will have to use the $LD_LIBRARY_PATH kludge, which
537 is considered harmful). This fix should be extended to other OSes
540 * Print whether we have SASL support in the "nmh configuration"
541 summary configure prints out.
543 * Say in README.developers to use `\date' in case anyone is like
544 me and has `date' aliased in their shell to use a nonstandard (but
545 subjectively more readable) format.
547 Thu Jan 25 21:15:52 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
549 * man/mh-chart.man has updated synposes of
552 Tue Jan 23 20:26:15 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
554 * etc/digestcomps tried to force dates into a
555 19xx when it's not necessary.
557 Fri Jan 19 21:22:08 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
559 * First round of manpage updates finished. They
560 are standardized on -man macros, with minimal
563 * man/tmac.h.in is no longer needed, since the
564 manpages do not depend on them anymore. Note:
565 strict "man" programs that didn't allow ".so"
566 sourcing outside the man tree will now format
567 the man pages correctly.
569 * man/vmh.1 is no longer built, since uip/vmh isn't
571 Tue Jan 9 6:01:22 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
573 * Finished manpages ali-prev
575 * Removed deprecated files from the repository.
576 Specifically, those rooted in zotnet/ and mts/sendmail
577 mts/mmdf. "cvs update -dP" will give a pruned directory
580 * Updated docs/Makefile.in to include README.manpages, and
581 uip/Makefile.in to include popi.c (which isn't being built,
582 though). This allows "make nmhdist" to create an archive that
583 is file-for-file identical to the current cvs repository.
585 Sun Dec 31 20:48:50 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
587 * Create docs/README.manpages, which details
588 the formatting rules I've been using.
592 Sat Dec 30 9:50:13 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
594 * Created a new file "DATE" to hold the date
595 of the most recent nmh release. This date will be
596 used in the manpages.
598 * Updated docs/README.developers to add the step
599 of updating DATE. Also, updated configure to
600 read in the contents of the file as the variable
603 * Started work on updating man pages, with only
604 ali finished so far. Changes: 1) no dependence
605 on an external macro file, 2) uses only
606 -man macros (although I may be mistaken in this),
607 3) syntax in the SYNOPSIS is a little more
608 in line with standard UNIX documentation, such as
609 bold flags and italicized parameters.
611 Sun Dec 24 10:06:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
613 * Updated INSTALL with information about the
614 --with-locking option.
616 * Fixed the Hesiod tests in configure.in. In
617 systems where res_send was in -lresolv, this
618 information was not being communicated to the
619 HESIOD_LIBS var. Now, if res_send is not found
620 in the default libraries, it's assumed to be
621 in -lresolv, and thus -lresolv is appended to
622 HESIOD_LIBS, which will need that to avoid
623 undefined symbols problems.
625 * Fixed the Kerberos tests in configure.in. New
626 versions of Kerberos 5 have renamed -lcrypto
627 to -lk5crypto (circa krb5 1.1 or thereabouts). The
628 new test tries to determine if -lk5crypto exists. If so,
629 this is a new krb5 system. If not, test for -lcrypto
630 and the rest of old krb5. If that fails, look
631 for a genuine krb4 installation.
633 Fri Dec 22 22:08:51 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
635 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in msgchk.man.
636 -snoop was documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
638 Fri Dec 22 23:42:16 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
640 * Made a new ./configure option called
641 "--with-locking" that allows the file
642 locking mechanism to be chosen there instead of
643 requiring a manual edit of config.h.
645 * If the option is not explicitly set, or an
646 invalid option is specified, "dot" locking is
647 chosen. Valid options are "dot", "fcntl",
648 "flock", and "lockf". We need a way to tell
649 the user that these are the valid options, and
650 change the flag "--with-locking" if it's not
653 Fri Dec 22 19:21:29 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
655 * Remove the lex-specific memory hints at the
656 beginning of sbr/dtimep.lex. We've already
657 committed to supporting flex only, since
658 lex does not easily allow us to parse a single
659 string, as well as other problems documented
660 below and on nmh-workers.
662 * Added a switch statement to configure.in to
663 test for Mac OS X. If this is the case, LDFLAGS
664 should not contain "-s" since the linker rejects
667 * Updated MACHINES to include Mac OS X Public Beta,
668 as well as Linux 2.4 running glibc 2.2.
670 Wed Dec 20 16:00:46 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
672 * Marked deprecated directories in docs/README.developers
673 as deprecated, with pointers to the new code location.
674 Eventually these deprecated directories should go away.
676 Tue Dec 19 19:16:37 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
678 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in inc.man. -snoop was
679 documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
681 Thu Dec 14 14:32:09 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
683 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
684 versions on ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/config, dated
685 12-07-00. This should prevent configure from failing
686 on newer operating systems because config.{guess,sub}
687 couldn't correctly identify them.
689 Thu Dec 14 1:30:44 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
691 * Fixed the circular dependency created when I moved
692 zotnet/mts to mts/generic and merged them into libmts.
693 mts/generic/client.c and mts/generic/mts.c are now in sbr/
694 (and thus in libmh), which makes libmh self-contained and
695 not depending on an external archive.
697 * All include statements now look for mts.h in h/. The
698 Makefiles and configure script have been modified so that
699 mts/generic is no longer built.
701 Mon Dec 11 22:08:07 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
703 * When Shantonu made the new libmts.a, he swapped $(MTSLIB) and
704 libmh.a in sbr/Makefile.in so that libmh.a comes first, but this
705 causes the build to fail on Solaris, because libmts.a has to get
706 ruserpass() out of libmh.a. Swapping them back to the way Ken
707 Hornstein's patch (which I applied on Jul 20) put them, with
708 libmh.a correctly coming second. If there are times when libmts.a
709 needs to come second, then it would appear there's a circular
710 dependency and someone (Shantonu?) did an mts merge incorrectly.
712 Fri Sep 8 01:36:23 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
714 * Took out bad time textual time zones like BST and JST.
715 I found them online somewhere, but am not sure if they're
718 Fri Sep 8 00:36:48 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
720 * Moved zotnet/mts to mts/generic. This code reorganization
721 makes the entire zotnet tree deprecated -- bboards is unneeded,
722 mf was was moved to sbr, tws was rewritten and moved to sbr, and
725 * Created a new static library called libmts.a used during
726 compilation which includes the generic mts code and the
727 smtp/sendmail code. This supercedes the functionality of the
728 old libsmtp.a and the remains of libzot.a.
730 * Updated header includes to reference the new location of mts.h
731 in mts/generic/mts.h. Also, update the configure and top-level
732 Makefile not to descend into zotnet. Also, they don't descend
733 into mts/mmdf and mts/sendmail (the sendmail code has been
734 merged into the smtp code).
736 * Added #include <h/nmh.h> to h/md5.h, since my compile was
737 complaining about implicitly-declared memcpy and memset, which
738 appear to be in strings.h. In any event, nmh.h should take care
741 * When doing a "make nmhdist", notice that the generated
742 snapshot does not include zotnet of the mts directories as noted
743 above. Since they are no longer compiled, and I don't see any
744 obvious code path to get to them, end-users should probably
745 not need them. If you think otherwise, turn Makefile generation
746 back on in configure.in and turn on recursion into those dirs
747 in the appropriate Makefile.in
749 Wed Sep 6 22:40:03 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
751 * Tracked down the problem in the new dtimep where time
752 zones were being radically misreported. It was because the
753 parser knew about military time zones (such as M or E) but in
754 some cases did not know about the textual representation of
755 some zones (like MET). When it encountered one of these, the
756 date parser misread MET as the military time zone T (well, first
757 zone M, then E, and finally T). I took military zones out, and
758 things seem much better. Also, the default behavior of parsing
759 time zones appears to default to GMT in the absence of better
760 info, which is less bogus than assuming the mail came from the
761 current time zone, which was the behavior in 1.04.
763 Thu Aug 10 13:22:13 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
765 * Decided that limiting the message number columns to 3 on my
766 scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD (to try to regain space taken by
767 extra date info) was ill-conceived. It's not that tough to get
768 past 999 messages, though I imagine it's rather rare to exceed
769 9999. Changed these to 4. Also put the "replied / encrypted"
770 column back in YYYYMMDD -- I've never seen it show anything but a
771 space, but that space is useful if you use scan, grep, and awk
772 (with the default field separator) to grab message numbers (I know
773 -- pick should really be used for these purposes...).
775 Mon Aug 7 20:11:09 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
777 * Modify umask set by mhshow to enable user execute bit, so that
778 viewers that create temporary directories (e.g., lynx) will be
781 Thu Aug 03 17:14:08 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
783 * TODO: Allow multiple simultaneous differing contexts, probably
784 each tied to a parent (terminal) process.
786 Tue Aug 1 10:48:05 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
788 * Makefile install rules should not look for generated files in
789 the source tree -- this will happen to work when configuring and
790 building inside the source tree but will fail when using an
791 external build tree. Fixed etc/Makefile.in.
793 Mon Jul 24 16:20:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
795 * When Shantonu wrote the new, more portable dtimep.lex, he left
796 out the #ifdef DSTXXX stuff for some reason. Not a good idea, as
797 that code is required for proper printing of numeric-offset
798 timezones that have daylight saving time. Without that code,
799 -0700 during DST gets printed as MST instead of PDT.
801 * Renamed DSTXXX as ADJUST_NUMERIC_ONLY_TZ_OFFSETS_WRT_DST and
802 added an explanatory comment by its #definition.
804 * Updated README.developers with the fact that zotnet/tws is going away.
806 Thu Jul 20 20:30:52 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
808 * Moved Kimmo's new "--with-hash-backup" to be output with the
809 rest of the --with options in the configure --help output. Also,
810 people did not preserve my alphabetization of the --with options
811 when they added new ones. Re-alphabetized.
813 * One more pass at README.developers now that it's clear that my
814 previously-suggested one-line autoconf-file commit can cause
815 unnecessary local makes and an out-of-sync stamp-h.in file, but
816 would not cause problems for other people using the CVS files.
818 * Ken Hornstein's SASL patch was not integrated properly with
819 Ruud's new merged mts/sendmail code. Kimmo has since fixed nmh so
820 it compiles, but according to Ken, the SASL stuff still does not
821 work. Integrating a patch from him for this.
823 * Last pass at README.developers -- Kimmo's 5-step commit was
824 overkill. You only need 3 steps, since configure.in is the only
825 autoconf file with the RCS $Id keyword.
827 * Applied Kurt J. Lidl <lidl@eng.us.uu.net>'s $MAILHOST patch:
829 I have a small patch that would be nice to be included --
830 basically, it allows the usage of the "MAILHOST" environment
831 variable, without having to have HESIOD turned on. I need
832 this functionality for my environment, where we have identical
833 /usr/local on all my machines (so I cannot just hardcode into
834 the mts.conf file), and I have multiple POP mail servers for
837 Modified inc.man to reflect that along with "pophost:" and -host,
838 $MAILHOST can now activate POP mail inclusion as well.
840 * Fixed warnings from diff on first-time install of nmh. Also
841 added 'echo's clarifying the etc file installation activities.
843 Tue Jul 18 19:36:59 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
845 * Added the answer to Dan's question in README.developers.
847 Mon Jul 17 19:10:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
849 * Clarified and made some corrections to Kimmo's README.developers
850 changes (BTW, if anyone can explain why the RCS Ids are able to cause
851 problems with the dependencies, please fill in the explanation --
852 I never encountered a problem with the old single-commit method).
854 Sat Jul 15 23:13:49 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
856 * Add configure option --with-hash-backup so the backup prefix can
857 be easily changed from "," to "#".
859 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that it works with any make.
861 * Use mkstemp in sbr/lock_file.c.
863 * Commits of autoconf-related files apparently can't all be done
864 in one shot due to RCS Ids changing when committing -- updated
867 Tue Jul 11 14:18:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
869 * Clarified post.man and send.man for those not completely up on
870 SASL terminology. "SASL encryption layers are not supported for
871 SMTP" means that encryption is supported for the authentication
872 but not for the subsequent data stream.
874 Sat Jul 8 01:36:19 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
876 * Applied Ken Hornstein <kenh@cmf.nrl.navy.mil>'s patches
877 implementing SASL support for POP3 and SMTP. If nmh is compiled
878 with SASL support, using the -sasl switch on the inc, msgchk,
879 post, and send commands will enable authentication encryption for
880 SMTP, and both authentication and data stream encryption for POP3.
882 Sat Jun 10 18:37:59 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
884 * Merged mts/sendmail functionality into mts/smtp; switching between
885 smtp and sendmail delivery method is now controlled by mts.conf.
887 * If tsort cannot deal with loops, in addition to defining tsort as
888 cat, also define lorder as echo.
890 * Removed uip/popi.c from list of sources.
892 Thu Jun 08 19:36:57 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
894 * New dtimep.lex didn't parse day names properly. Fixed. Also
895 clarified ambiguous comments preceding day_map[] array (from old
896 dtimep.lex) that probably led to the erroneous cp++ being added.
898 Wed Jun 7 20:52:33 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
900 * Added one more mkstemp invocation to uip/spost.c (which was in a
903 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to clean up permissions handling
904 and error handling in uip/inc.c.
906 Mon Jun 5 22:10:07 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
908 * Use cat instead of tsort if tsort cannot deal with loops in its
909 input (which is the case for tsort from GNU textutils).
911 Mon Jun 5 21:14:36 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
913 * If lockfile is present, and its dotlockfile program is setgid,
914 inc does not need to be setgid.
916 Sun Jun 4 21:35:40 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
918 * Added autoconf test for Miquel van Smoorenburg's liblockfile
919 library, as found on Debian systems.
921 * Added liblockfile support to sbr/lock_file.c.
923 Wed May 31 7:19:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
925 * Fixed up dtimep.lex a bit. Added back memory options for AIX to
926 increase available memory. Took out %option noyywrap, which
927 wasn't understood by AT&T lex, as well as the -i
928 case-insensitivity flag.
930 Wed May 31 07:40:45 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
932 * Added a lint target to the Makefiles and a check in autoconf
933 to determine whether lint or lclint exists on the system.
935 Fri May 30 19:21:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
937 * etc/Makefile.in was incorrectly installing mts.conf.in and
938 sendfiles.in -- fixed. Generated sendfiles script was not a
939 dependency of the `all' target, and was incorrectly included in
940 the distribution. Changed the suffix for the backed-up previous
941 versions of the etc files from the ambiguous .old to .prev. Added
942 call to diff -- only keep the .prev files around if different from
943 the newly-installed versions (intentionally didn't redirect output
944 to /dev/null so you'll notice when your changed versions are
945 getting moved aside).
947 * INSTALL never documented the etc/*.old thing. Documented the
948 new etc/*.prev thing (including a note to watch for diff output).
950 * Applied Alec Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu>'s dropsbr.c patch:
952 In the map_write routine, a call is made to map_open and this
953 call is supposed to set the "clear" variable to 0 or 1,
954 depending on whether the map file is empty or not. In
955 mh6.8.3, this worked because map_open would set "clear" by
956 calling the mbx_Xopen routine. In nmh, the code for mbx_Xopen
957 was merged into mbx_open, but the interface for mbx_open
958 doesn't support the clear variable, so that functionality was
959 lost. The map_open interface still contains "int *clear" in
960 the prototype, but never sets it.
962 My patch eliminates "clear" from the map_open interface (I
963 checked to make sure that map_write is the only client of
964 map_open). Furthermore, my patch also sets the "clear"
965 variable properly at the beginning of map_write by calling
966 fstat(). This eliminates the bug in that the value of "clear"
967 being used later in the routine was just stack garbage.
969 Having a bad value of clear causes this next bug to be
970 triggered: The fp file pointer was being opened with fdopen,
971 but in two of the three switch cases it wasn't being closed.
972 In certain cases, this was causing packf to run out of file
973 descriptors if you attempted to pack a large folder.
975 Mon May 29 7:48:15 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
977 * Moved the date parsing routines from zotnet/tws to sbr/ (and
978 tws.h to h/). Updated all source files to reflect to new location
981 * Rewrote dparsetime (in dtimep.lex -> dtimep.c) to replace the
982 old zotnet/tws/dtimep.c, dtimep.lex, lexstring.c, lexedit.c, and
983 dtimep.c-lexed. It should now work with flex (although untested
984 with lex), and requires no sed-ing. For now, I have the lexed
985 version in the distribution, so that end-users don't need to worry
986 about running it through flex/lex. I have not added back support
987 for guessing the time zone when it's not specified.
989 Sun May 28 17:44:15 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
991 * Added autoconf check for getutent().
993 * Changed uip/rcvtty.c and uip/slocal.c to use getutent() and
994 friends. Since I can only check on Linux, please check if
995 this works on other systems.
997 Sun May 28 14:58:49 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
999 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to uip/scansbr.c for more
1000 checks for write failures.
1002 * Unlink temporary file properly in uip/rcvtty.c.
1004 * Moved viamail from bindir to libdir.
1006 * Changed sendfiles into sendfiles.in, so that path to viamail
1009 * Added gzip support to sendfiles.
1011 * Added References header to replcomps and replgroupcomps.
1013 Sun May 28 14:39:31 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1015 * Fixed m_getfld bug which caused segmentation faults when
1016 incorporating messages which ended in multiple linefeeds crossing
1019 Fri May 26 13:21:59 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1021 * msh has been unable to show MIME messages ever since 1.0. Alec
1022 Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu> tracked down the problem to the
1023 -show flag being passed to mhshow. mhshow is equivalent to the
1024 old mhn -show, so we don't need the -show anymore. Removed it.
1026 Fri May 12 02:51:21 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1028 * zotnet/bboards is not longer built by default. Goal is to move
1029 the assorted functions in zotnet into sbr or some more logical
1032 * Moved zotnet/mf to sbr, and changed mf.h references accordingly,
1033 as well as Makefiles.
1035 Thu May 11 02:21:34 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1037 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that both SRCS and OBJS aren't
1038 seperately and redundantly defined, but so that OBJS is a
1039 pattern-substituted version of SRCS with suffix .c -> .o. This
1040 should make maintainability easier.
1042 * Added section to MACHINES indicating what platforms nmh is known
1043 to compile and work on, just to give users peace of mind, or
1044 something. This is by no means complete or exhaustive, so add
1045 whatever you know works.
1047 Tue May 09 20:38:04 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1049 * Alphabetized Shantonu's $pop_kinds output on configure's "pop is
1050 enabled" line. If POP3 is the only kind of POP enabled, say so,
1051 rather than just saying "yes" (which is ambiguous).
1053 * Fixed four warnings in Shantonu's new getpass.c. Needed to
1054 #include <stdlib.h> for calloc(), <unistd.h> for ttyname(), and
1055 "h/mh.h" for adios(). Also changed ch from char to int to get rid
1056 of "comparison is always 1 due to limited range of data type" on EOF.
1058 * Added steps to README.developers saying to change the version
1059 number to X.Y.Z+dev. Did a little rearranging and changed the FTP
1060 dir from /home/ftp to /var/ftp to reflect Doug's new machine.
1062 * Changed configure.in to use gcc -Wall even without
1063 --enable-debug, to prevent developers compiling optimized from
1064 introducing warnings, and to give end-users a warm, fuzzy feeling
1065 as they (hopefully) see no warnings come out (except perhaps on
1066 the lex output file) even with -Wall.
1068 * Renamed getpass() to nmh_getpass() since the prototype for
1069 getpass() varies from OS to OS, and we want to _always_ use our
1070 version of the function. Fixed all the callers to use
1071 nmh_getpass() and added it to prototypes.h. Semi-arbitrarily
1072 upped MAX_PASSWORD_LEN from 128 to 256. buf was being calloc()'d
1073 and the memory leaked -- should have just been declared as static
1074 char array. Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the
1075 copyright message, as this version has been changed significantly
1076 from the BSD version.
1078 * Added "nmh-local functions to use in preference to OS versions"
1079 section to README.developers (currently just says to use
1080 nmh_getpass() instead of system getpass()).
1082 * Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the copyright message
1083 in ruserpass.c also.
1085 * Added mts.conf.5 page per Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s
1088 This happens on solaris:
1091 windex entry incorrect: mts.conf(5) not found.
1092 No manual entry for mts.conf.
1096 % echo ".so man5/mh-tailor.5" > mts.conf.5
1098 done in the man5 directory. We need to add 'mts.conf.5' as a
1099 reference sourcing mh-tailor.5.
1101 Mon May 08 23:51:55 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1103 * Doug informed me that the way I had restored the "lost" version
1104 histories was wrong, because `cvs checkout's of old versions of
1105 nmh wouldn't work properly. It occurs to me that this could be
1106 fixed by simply deleting those tags in the new-location *,v files,
1107 but oh well. I'm putting everything back to the way Doug
1108 originally had it. To get the old version history for a file that
1109 used to be in the top directory, you'll need to "blindly" do a
1110 `cvs log' there (even though you won't have a local copy of the
1111 file in that directory). `cvs diff' will no longer be able to
1112 diff pre-move versions vs. post-move versions -- you'll have to do
1113 a lot of manual gyrations with `cvs checkout' and then use `diff'.
1115 * I had alphabetized the --configure options in the --help output
1116 awhile back, but Shantonu added --enable-apop just under
1117 --enable-pop. Put it in alphabetical order and clarified what
1118 --enable-apop does vs. --enable-pop and --with-krb4. Also changed
1119 --with-mts help line from "mail transport agent" to "mail
1120 transport agent/service" so the 's' in "mts" doesn't seem to come
1123 * Added two steps to "releasing nmh" in README.developers. After
1124 making the tarball, it's a good idea to diff the tree vs. the CVS
1125 tree to make sure no files got left out, and then to chown the
1126 files so that they're owned by root, preventing a Trojaning attack
1127 by a malicious remote user with a UID matching yours.
1129 * Changed DIFFERENCES to say that RPOP is not currently supported
1130 rather than implying it by saying that APOP, KPOP, and POP[3] are.
1132 Sun May 07 18:16:43 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1134 * Imported NetBSD version of getpass() and made extensive
1135 revisions for compatibility with programs that pipe the password
1136 to stdin, such as exmh.
1138 * Removed tests for system ruserpass() which sometimes gave
1139 phantom positive results. Also, bext to use internal functions if
1140 we ever want to change .netrc format to something else, or access
1143 Sat May 06 08:28:09 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1145 * Restored lost version histories for those moved files by doing a
1146 manual `mv' in the CVSROOT on mhost. CVS badly needs a `cvs mv'
1147 command so that you can move files (without having physical access
1148 to the CVSROOT) without losing versioning. Put MACHINES back at
1149 the top level as it needs to be read before building. Fixed DIST
1150 variable in {.,docs}/Makefile.in to reflect that and to add
1151 missing entry for "INSTALL" file.
1153 Sat May 06 13:13:07 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1155 * Re-cleaned up nmh documentation (by moving things to docs
1156 subdir) and modified Makefile & configure.in to handle the change.
1158 Mon Apr 17 21:28:40 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1160 * Scott Blachowicz pointed out that the configure --help output
1161 for --enable-masquerade was misleading. Clarified.
1163 Mon Apr 17 19:01:00 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1165 * APOP support can be compiled in to inc and msgchk using
1168 * To access an APOP host, specify -apop on the command line
1169 along with any -host or -user option.
1171 Fri Apr 14 23:10:44 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1173 * Upped the version number to 1.0.4+dev until the next nmh release.
1175 * Added a "releasing nmh" section to README.developers, while the
1176 process was fresh in my mind.
1178 Fri Apr 14 18:21:34 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1180 * Added new files README.developers, ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6, and
1181 ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html to DIST target in Makefile.in.
1183 * Released nmh-1.0.4.
1185 Tue Apr 11 21:37:03 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1187 * Applied Brian Campbell <bacam@tardis.ed.ac.uk>'s mhn.defaults.sh
1190 It appears that there shouldn't be quotes around the %s in the
1191 iso-8859-1 charset entry; xterm passes the remaining arguments
1192 to the program, quoting them means that xterm thinks they're
1193 part of the program's name.
1195 This %s isn't the same as the "Insert content subtype" one from
1196 mhshow-show-* -- it doesn't come from MIME headers and is safe not
1199 Sun Apr 09 13:03:59 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1201 * added check in fmt_compile() to handle a single-character
1202 format string. fmt_compile() depends on having an array of
1203 format characters with an empty item at the end. A
1204 single-character format would cause programs using this
1205 function to segfault because the algorithm used to decide on
1206 the length of the array mistakenly created a single-item array
1207 when the format string was one character. This eventually
1208 caused problems when the program attempted to test item+1
1211 Thu Apr 06 21:53:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1213 * Richard Coleman threw out a lot of old MH-specific files in nmh.
1214 Much of the stuff, indeed, is not worth saving, but there are
1215 nuggets that are very worthwhile, and should probably be added
1216 back in. Most important, IMHO, are the MH change logs, as they
1217 can help answer questions like "Why is this code like this?" or
1218 "How long has this been broken?" or "What was this ever used for?"
1220 I've added a new file to the nmh tree called
1221 ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6. It's cobbled together from the
1222 mh-6.8.4/papers/mh*/MHCHANGES files. I've re-ordered the entries
1223 to go from newest at the top to oldest at the bottom to match the
1224 ChangeLog convention. Unfortunately there are no change logs for
1225 versions of MH prior to 3 in the MH tar files available at
1226 <ftp://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/mh>. Also, it appears to me that there
1227 are MH-6.6 changes that aren't documented in the logs.
1229 I've also added ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html. This is
1230 based on mh-6.8.4/papers/changes/mh-changes.ms. The nroff format
1231 and its "catman"-type output are a pain to deal with, but I was
1232 loath to throw away the formatting, so I converted the file to
1233 HTML. The only actual markup in the body are the "<B>" and "<U>"
1234 tags, and "<" and ">" instead of '<' and '>', so it's quite
1235 doable to view the file in plain ASCII mode as well. Note that
1236 some of the changes this file documents as having been made in
1237 MH-6.8.4 may not be present in nmh -- Richard started with 6.8.3
1238 and later put in certain 6.8.4 stuff.
1240 Wed Apr 05 21:09:28 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1242 * Applied Eric Schnoebelen <eric@cirr.com>'s mhshowsbr.c patch
1243 fixing apparent bugs in Dan Winship's new security quoting code:
1245 Since upgrading, I've been getting the following errors
1246 while attempting to process some MIME messages:
1248 (1) Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
1253 (2) line 1/10 (END)Segmentation fault (core dumped)
1255 (2) appears to be due to the testing of an unset pointer in
1256 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux(). (1) appears to be caused by
1257 mis-quoting a filename being handed to the shell in
1258 mhshowsbr.c:show_content_aux().
1260 Resolving the pointer reference issue in
1261 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux() turned up a similar mis-quoting
1262 problem in the routine.
1264 Tue Mar 28 16:17:39 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1266 * Applied Todd.Miller@courtesan.com's patch to dropsbr.c to
1267 prevent core dumping on packf. Here's the note from his message:
1269 Since sizeof(buffer) == sizeof(tmpbuffer) packf will dump
1270 core on a file w/o a From line with a line >= BUFSIZ.
1271 I noticed this because I had a junk file in my mail
1274 Fri Mar 17 11:59:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1276 * wesley.craig@umich.edu did not document his previous KPOP patch,
1277 so I did so, and asked him to check what I wrote. Unfortunately
1278 he didn't notice my misunderstanding of his patch. I wrote that
1279 if you #define POPSERVICE "kpop", inc and msgchk will use KPOP
1280 exclusively, but if you leave it as "pop3", you can use Wesley's
1281 new -kpop switch on a given invocation. Instead, however, -kpop
1282 turned out to be necessary on every invocation, and a KPOP user
1283 complained. Applied Wesley's new patch, which makes things work
1284 like I thought his original patch did. After that, did one more
1285 clarifying pass to the documentation in inc.man and msgchk.man.
1287 Wed Mar 15 18:45:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1289 * When I fixed the long-standing makedir() bugs in January, I had
1290 the code call strtoul(..., 0), which I believed to be safe as all
1291 modes specified as ASCII constants in the nmh code started with a
1292 leading zero (signifying octal), which I did as it would work if
1293 internal constants were ever changed to hex. Unfortunately I was
1294 unaware of the "Folder-Protect:" .mh_profile entry, which
1295 mh-profile.man documents as an octal-only constant, with no
1296 leading zero required. I've changed the strtoul() call to an
1297 atooi() call and removed the misleading leading zeroes on the
1298 ASCII octal constants in the code and man pages. Also changed the
1299 "Folder-Protect:" example in the man page to something more
1300 interesting than a duplication of the default.
1302 * When I added my --enable-masquerade option, you'll note that I
1303 didn't make it --enable-nmh-masquerade. I find the --enable-nmh-*
1304 options too wordy and I'm not sure why Richard went that route.
1305 I've renamed them to just --enable-*, but the old versions will
1306 still work as well (they just aren't advertised).
1308 * Added a line to the "nmh configuration" output saying whether
1311 * Added a new README.developers file. From the file:
1313 This file is intended to provide a few tips for anyone doing
1314 development on nmh. Developers who learn things "the hard
1315 way" about the nmh codebase (as opposed to local info best
1316 encoded in a comment) are encouraged to share their wisdom
1319 Currently the topics are "autoconf files" and "directory structure".
1321 Tue Mar 14 12:41:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1323 * Applied, after some finessing,
1324 Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s --with-smtpservers patch:
1326 Here's a patch that allows you to add
1328 --with-smtpservers=<some.host.name>
1330 to the ./configure command line to set the "servers: " line in
1331 etc/mts.conf. Around here, we use "mailhost" so that all
1332 machines in the current domain just talk to a central machine
1333 and nothing else runs an MTA. Now, I can use
1335 --with-smtpservers=mailhost
1337 instead of having to remember to fix this by hand (and often
1338 forgetting to do so!).
1340 * Inspired by Simon's patch, added an --enable-masquerade option
1341 to configure. It will set the "masquerade:" line of mts.conf.
1342 You may specify a subset of the three types of masquerading, like
1343 --enable-masquerade="draft_from mmailid", or leave off explicit
1344 arguments to enable all three types.
1346 * Alphabetized the --enable and --with options in configure.in and
1347 INSTALL and added documentation of the two new options to the latter.
1349 * Added new dependency for mts.conf: Makefile. If this isn't
1350 done, then when you reconfigure nmh with new values for
1351 --enable-masquerade or --with-smtpservers, you'll fail to get an
1352 updated copy of mts.conf.
1354 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtimep.lex patch:
1356 It seems that some MUA's didn't handle y2k very well - ELM
1357 seems to be one of them, and Ultrix's DXmail (based on MH!).
1358 I've got a few emails this month that look like:
1360 575 Jan 00 Xxxxxx Xxxx 3603 ...
1362 22+ Jan 00 Xxx Xxxxx 1771 ...
1364 The first has "15 Jan 100" as the date and the second has
1365 "19 Jan 00" as the date. The following works around this so
1366 that scan, show, sortm, etc work ok.
1368 I put Simon's patch under the control of a new #define called
1369 FIX_NON_Y2K_COMPLIANT_MUA_DATES. There's some commentary in
1370 acconfig.h about when you might not want to #define it.
1372 * Created new dtimep.c-lexed with Simon's change using dtimep.lex
1373 lexed on Solaris 2.6. Added missing dependency in
1374 zotnet/tws/Makefile.in for dtimep.c: dtimep.c-lexed.
1376 * Added scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD format files.
1378 Mon Mar 13 21:32:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1380 * Applied Sullivan N. Beck <sbeck@cise.ufl.edu>'s mhshow-suffix patch:
1382 With the patch below, you can add lines like:
1384 mhshow-suffix-application/msword: .doc
1385 mhshow-suffix-application/PostScript: .ps
1387 to the mhn.defaults file to append the given suffix to a
1388 scratch file. This allows applications which require a
1389 certain suffix to run properly.
1391 * Removed -force_html from lynx entry in mhn.defaults.sh (I
1392 believe older versions of lynx lack that option) and added
1393 "mhshow-suffix-text/html: .html".
1395 * Modified username_extension masquerading to only use the
1396 extended address on generated [Resent-]From: lines and SMTP
1397 envelope From:. With Neil's original implementation, nmh's global
1398 idea of the username was changed, which would result in inc lying
1399 and saying you had no new mail because it was looking for a
1400 mailbox called, for instance, "dan-nmh" (where username was "dan"
1401 and $USERNAME_EXTENSION was "-nmh").
1403 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtime.c patch:
1405 There's a wrap-around problem that affects the implementation
1406 of Zeller's congruence in dtime.c. This causes the day-of-week
1407 calculations to fail for dates after Feb 29, 2000 (probably up
1408 until some year far in the future).
1410 Mon Mar 06 12:20:20 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1412 * Applied Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s msh.c patch:
1414 I finally tracked down the problem in msh that was causing
1415 errors whenever I tried to examine a 'mmdf' style mailbox.
1417 It turns out that not enough memory was being allocated with
1418 calloc(), causing memory pointers to be overwritten and
1421 Fri Mar 03 16:07:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1423 * Changed the new "plussed_user" option to mts.conf's
1424 "masquerade:" to "username_extension" after getting feedback from
1425 qmail users, who use '-' as a separator rather than '+'. Removed
1426 checking of $USERPLUS variable. Now check $USERNAME_EXTENSION,
1427 which needs to include the appropriate separator for your MTA
1428 ('-', '+', or whatever) as its first character.
1430 Thu Mar 02 23:04:30 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1432 * Added a new "boolean" type to mh.h and TRUE and FALSE constants.
1434 * Added a note to DIFFERENCES stating that it's out-of-date
1435 (Richard was the last one to update it) and that we should
1436 consider only documenting incompatibilities with MH there.
1438 * Implemented (and documented) a third kind of username
1439 masquerading: "plussed user" masquerading. This one was suggested
1440 by Neil Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>. It's based on sendmail's
1441 "plussed user" feature, where mail sent to <user>+<string> will be
1442 delivered to <user>. When it's enabled, it's controlled by the
1443 $USERPLUS environment variable. How is it enabled? Well, that
1446 * Renamed the "mmailid:" setting in mts.conf to "masquerade:", and
1447 changed it so that rather than being a boolean, it can be set to
1448 any combination of the three values "draft_from", "mmailid", and
1449 "plussed_user". Thus it is now possible to enable the three types
1450 of masquerading individually.
1452 * Fixed a bug with "mmailid" masquerading (dating back to MH?)
1453 where if it was turned on, ','s would no longer be considered
1454 GECOS field delimiters.
1456 Wed Mar 01 23:30:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1458 * Changed the GECOS-field '&' translation behavior to be
1459 controlled by the BSD42 #define rather than GCOS_HACK, since it's
1460 apparently always appropriate on OSes where BSD42 is #defined, and
1461 never appropriate on any other OSes. Thanks to Kimmo Suominen for
1462 responding to my "What is this code here for?" comment in mts.c
1463 and explaining the feature.
1465 Mon Feb 28 21:50:29 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1467 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3+dev (ideally this should be
1468 done by whoever makes a release tar file, immediately after doing
1471 * Applied Paul Fox <pgf-spam@foxharp.boston.ma.us>'s scansbr.c
1472 patch, posted to comp.mail.mh, which he says prevents loss of mail
1473 when inc'ing into a full filesystem.
1475 * Changed "echo > stamp-h.in" in Makefile.in to "date > stamp-h.in"
1476 so that stamp-h.in will be different each time configure.in and
1477 related files are changed, making it easier to check it in (which
1478 is necessary to prevent unnecessary autoconf calls).
1480 * My declaration of initgroups() in slocal.c to eliminate the "no
1481 prototype" warning wasn't portable (FreeBSD 3.[23] choked). Now
1482 use AC_EGREP_HEADER to see where initgroups() is declared, if
1485 Sun Feb 20 12:17:15 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1487 * Fix security hole in mhshowsbr.c which allowed untrusted shell
1488 code to be executed.
1490 * Released nmh 1.0.3.
1492 Thu Feb 10 10:54:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1494 * Oops. %-escapes on mhstore lines in mhn.defaults.sh should not
1495 be surrounded by single quotes, as a shell is not spawned when
1496 just saving files, and the filenames will end up with literal
1497 quotes embedded in them.
1499 Fri Feb 04 12:29:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1501 * Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
1502 got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
1503 the -help output. One theory is that they were making reference
1504 to the fact that clearly you know about the -help option since
1505 you're currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea
1506 to overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
1507 supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
1510 The other theory is that because you can say something like
1511 "mhstore -" and get "mhstore: - ambiguous. It matches" followed
1512 by the same list of switches you get with -help, they were saying
1513 you can "sorta" abbreviate "-help" as "-". You don't get the
1514 "Usage:" string, though, so it's not really the same thing.
1516 Thu Feb 03 17:52:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1518 * Applied wesley.craig@umich.edu's KPOP patches. According to him:
1520 The following patch fixes a problem with requesting a
1521 service key for a machine that has multiple 'A' records. It
1522 also makes "-kpop" a command line option, for users who
1523 would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".
1525 Did no testing of the new features, as I don't have access to a
1528 * Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
1530 * Modified INSTALL and config.h.in to reflect the new -kpop feature.
1532 Fri Jan 28 17:39:24 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1534 * All %-escapes in mhn.defaults that actually expand to something
1535 should be surrounded by single quotes. Added quotes to the ones
1536 in mhn.defaults.sh that were missing them.
1538 * Added check for lynx to write mhshow-show-text/html line in
1541 Thu Jan 27 12:22:25 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1543 * makedir() had multiple bugs dating back to MH. An octal
1544 constant was apparently being interpreted as decimal, resulting in
1545 directories with no user read or execute permissions, making
1546 nested directory creation fail. And there wasn't even an
1547 _attempt_ to set desired permissions (e.g. from "Folder-Protect:"
1548 in .mh_profile) on the outer directories of a nested directory.
1550 * A second `make install' would always fail because the check for
1551 whether mh_profile.5 existed was written incorrectly.
1553 Wed Jan 26 02:22:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1555 * Added documentation on both types of masquerading to post's man
1558 Tue Jan 25 22:58:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1560 * Doug's portability fix of my setgid inc autodetection had a
1561 caching bug -- if you re-ran configure, uip/Makefile would be
1562 corrupted, and installation would bomb out on OSes where inc needs
1565 * Implemented a new kind of email address masquerading. Usually,
1566 when a user writes a custom "From:" header in a draft, nmh uses it
1567 rather than generating one. However, the user's true address is
1568 used in the SMTP envelope "From:" and is revealed in the "Sender:"
1569 header. Now, when mmailid is set to non-zero, the envelope
1570 "From:" uses the address specified in the draft "From:" header,
1571 and there is no "Sender:" header. This is useful when sending on
1572 behalf of a remote POP3 account or when remote mail robots
1573 incorrectly use the envelope "From:" in preference to the body
1574 "From:". This processing has only been implemented for post, not
1575 for the undocumented spost (which was already missing some "From:"
1576 processing that post has).
1578 Mon Jan 24 22:26:06 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1580 * Got rid of the rest of the gcc -Wall warnings that I didn't have
1581 time for on 1999-07-15 (and, it would seem, some new ones people
1582 introduced since then). The primary ones were the warnings that
1583 default prototypes were being used for [v]snprintf() and
1584 str[n]casecmp(). As of right now, there are _no_ compilation
1585 warnings except on dtimep.c-lexed (at least under AIX 4.1.5 and
1588 Sun Jan 2 23:42:18 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1590 * Move mhtest from bindir to libdir.
1592 * Move sendfiles from libdir to bindir.
1594 * Updated sendfiles manpage to reflect this change.
1596 * Added documentation for -build and -file switches to repl and
1597 forw manpages (patch from Peter Maydell).
1599 * Fixed interaction between specifying -cc in profile and -group on
1602 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1604 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
1605 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
1606 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
1609 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1611 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
1612 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
1613 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
1614 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
1615 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
1616 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).
1618 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1620 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
1622 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1624 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
1625 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
1626 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
1627 caught again. This works for now.
1629 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
1631 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1633 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
1634 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
1636 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1638 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
1639 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
1641 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
1643 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
1645 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1647 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
1648 changes. Both need more cleanup.
1650 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1652 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
1653 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
1654 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
1655 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
1656 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
1659 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1661 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
1662 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
1663 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
1665 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
1666 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
1669 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1671 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
1672 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
1673 to a directory on another device with more free space.
1675 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1677 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
1678 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
1680 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1682 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
1685 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
1686 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
1688 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
1689 macros, regardless of platform.
1691 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
1692 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1694 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
1695 with x-conversions=gzip.
1697 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1699 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
1702 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
1703 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
1704 implicit definition of ioctl().
1706 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
1707 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
1708 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
1709 want to mess with them.
1711 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1713 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
1714 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
1716 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
1717 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
1719 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
1720 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
1721 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
1723 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
1724 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
1725 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
1727 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
1728 function initgroups.
1730 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
1733 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
1734 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
1737 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
1738 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
1741 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
1742 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
1746 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1748 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
1749 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
1750 preventing compilation on at least linux.
1752 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
1753 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
1755 Thu Sep 09 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1757 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
1759 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
1760 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
1761 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
1762 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
1764 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
1765 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
1767 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1769 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
1771 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1773 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
1774 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
1776 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1778 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
1779 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
1781 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
1782 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
1783 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
1784 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
1786 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
1787 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
1789 Sat Jun 09 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1791 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
1792 substitute it for mktemp if available.
1794 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1796 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
1797 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
1800 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
1802 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
1804 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
1806 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
1807 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
1809 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
1810 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
1811 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
1813 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
1814 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
1815 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
1817 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
1818 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
1819 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1821 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
1822 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
1825 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
1826 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1828 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
1829 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1831 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
1832 <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1834 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
1835 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
1836 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1838 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
1839 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1841 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
1842 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
1843 <elleron@servtech.com>.
1845 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
1846 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
1849 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
1850 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
1852 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
1853 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
1854 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
1855 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
1857 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
1858 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
1860 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1864 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
1865 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
1866 would not be changed.
1868 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
1869 one from the Apache web server.
1871 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
1872 (this should have been done a long time ago).
1874 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
1875 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
1876 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
1878 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
1880 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
1882 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
1883 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
1886 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
1887 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
1888 removes a bad race condition.
1890 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
1893 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
1894 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
1895 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
1897 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
1898 sequence information.
1900 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
1901 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
1903 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
1906 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
1909 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
1911 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
1912 interpret 034 as octal.
1914 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
1916 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
1917 mhstore, and mhbuild.
1919 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
1920 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
1922 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
1923 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
1925 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
1926 in the c_cefile structure when building.
1928 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
1929 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
1931 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
1932 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
1933 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
1935 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
1936 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
1937 and mhshow. Updated man pages
1939 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
1941 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
1943 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
1944 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
1947 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
1949 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
1950 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
1952 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
1953 header field information.
1955 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
1956 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
1958 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
1959 values when parsing a content.
1961 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
1962 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
1964 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
1965 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
1967 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
1968 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1970 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
1971 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
1973 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
1975 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
1977 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
1979 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
1981 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
1982 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
1985 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
1986 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
1988 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
1989 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
1990 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
1991 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
1992 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
1993 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
1996 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1998 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
1999 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
2000 buffer length checks for this parameter.
2002 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
2003 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
2005 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
2007 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
2008 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
2009 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
2010 of the limits on the length of command lines.
2012 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
2013 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
2016 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
2017 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
2018 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
2019 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
2022 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2024 * Released nmh-0.27.
2026 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
2027 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
2029 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
2030 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
2031 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
2032 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
2035 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
2036 mhbuild returns an error.
2038 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
2039 rename the draft file.
2041 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
2042 use a global variable.
2044 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
2045 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
2047 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
2048 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
2050 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
2051 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
2052 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
2054 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
2055 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
2057 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
2058 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
2061 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
2062 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
2065 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
2066 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
2068 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
2069 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
2070 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
2072 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
2073 to new function output_content_folder.
2075 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
2076 new function output_content_file.
2078 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
2079 to new function parse_format_string.
2081 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
2082 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
2083 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
2084 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
2086 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
2087 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
2088 message/external file from ftp.
2090 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
2091 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
2092 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
2094 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
2095 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
2098 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
2101 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
2102 new file mhstoresbr.c
2104 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
2107 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
2108 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
2110 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
2111 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
2113 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
2114 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
2115 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
2117 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
2119 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
2121 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
2122 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
2125 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
2126 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
2128 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
2131 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
2133 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2135 * Released nmh-0.26.
2137 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
2138 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
2139 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
2140 is still the same (dashstuffing).
2142 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
2143 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
2144 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
2145 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
2146 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
2148 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
2149 But it is not on by default.
2151 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
2152 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
2154 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
2156 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
2158 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
2160 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
2162 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
2163 number of the "cur" message when packing.
2165 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2167 * Released nmh-0.25.
2169 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
2170 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
2171 uses the original name of the library.
2173 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
2174 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
2177 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
2178 list_content and list_debug.
2180 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
2182 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
2183 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.
2185 1998-02-27 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2187 * Released nmh-0.24.
2189 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
2191 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
2192 are given, that order doesn't matter.
2194 * Fix bug in seq_list.c when realloc'ing for
2195 large sequence line.

2199 * Released nmh-0.23.
2201 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
2203 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
2204 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan
2205 content, decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary
2206 string). I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
2208 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
2209 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
2212 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
2214 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
2216 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
2218 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
2219 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
2221 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
2222 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.
2224 * Add note to MACHINES file that on Linux, configure
2225 doesn't find the functions sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
2227 * Fix configuration for machines that don't have (or find)
2228 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
2230 1998-02-11 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2232 * Released nmh-0.22.
2234 * Add a configure check for sigsetjmp. Add some conditional
2235 #define's in h/signals.h in case it's not found.
2237 * Added additional notes about -auto switch in mhn man page.
2239 * Added note about MM_CHARSET environment variable to
2240 mh-profile(5) man page.
2242 * Fix signal problem in mhn.c (change setjmp/longjmp to

2245 1998-02-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2247 * Released nmh-0.22-pre1.
2249 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
2250 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
2252 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
2254 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
2255 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
2256 entry point for parsing MIME files.
2258 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
2259 source message on the standard input.
2261 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
2263 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
2264 rather than -rfc934mode.
2266 * Fix mhbuild, so that Content-Description and RFC-822 comments
2267 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
2270 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
2271 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).
2273 * Restore HP specific code to zotnet/tws/lexstring.c. Apparently
2276 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2278 * Released nmh-0.21.
2280 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
2281 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.
2283 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what transfer
2286 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what character set
2287 to use for text contents.
2289 * Removed old hpux specific code from zotnet/tws/lexstring.c
2291 1998-02-02 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2293 * Released nmh-0.21-pre2.
2295 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
2297 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
2298 header fields as per RFC-2047.
2300 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
2301 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
2302 spaces between encoded word are.
2304 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
2306 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
2307 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
2309 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
2310 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
2311 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
2313 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
2315 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
2316 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
2318 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.
2320 * Added support for %(decode) to fmtdump.c.
2322 * check_charset() now accepts US-ASCII as a subset of any
2323 ISO-8859-X character set.
2325 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
2328 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
2329 permissions, not write permissions.
2331 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
2332 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
2334 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
2337 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2339 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
2341 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
2342 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
2344 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
2345 message contains valid character set.
2347 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
2348 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
2350 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
2351 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
2353 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
2354 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
2355 between an encoded word and normal text.
2357 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
2358 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
2360 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
2361 as a RFC-2047 header field.
2363 * The command install-mh now recognizes the switches -version
2366 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
2367 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
2370 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
2371 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
2373 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
2374 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
2376 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
2378 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2380 * Released nmh-0.20.
2382 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
2384 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.
2386 * Changed the default format file for mhl (mhl.format) to
2387 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
2388 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
2390 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
2391 and the To: line was missing.
2393 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
2395 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2397 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
2399 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
2400 watch the POP transaction.
2402 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
2403 first, and use it if available.
2405 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
2406 first, and use it if available.
2408 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2410 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
2412 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
2413 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
2414 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
2417 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
2418 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
2419 returns the state FLDPLUS.
2421 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
2422 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
2425 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
2427 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
2428 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
2430 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
2432 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
2433 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
2435 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
2436 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
2437 message to which you are replying.
2439 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
2440 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
2441 making group replies.
2443 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
2445 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2447 * Released nmh-0.19.
2449 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
2450 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
2452 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
2453 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
2454 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
2455 to the end of the man page.
2457 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
2458 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
2459 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
2460 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
2461 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
2462 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
2464 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
2467 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
2468 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
2469 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
2471 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
2472 the next available number above the message number you wish
2475 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
2476 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
2478 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
2479 file sbr/seq_print.c
2481 * flist will now update the current folder.
2483 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
2484 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
2485 but now undocumented.
2487 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
2490 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
2491 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
2493 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
2495 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
2496 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
2498 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2500 * Released nmh-0.18.
2502 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
2503 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
2504 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
2506 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
2507 retains the public/private status of sequences.
2509 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
2510 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
2511 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
2512 previous public/private status.
2514 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
2517 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
2520 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
2521 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
2522 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
2524 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
2525 take option to determine whether it should get current
2526 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
2527 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
2529 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
2531 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
2532 wait for stopped processes.
2534 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
2535 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
2537 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2539 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
2541 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
2542 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
2544 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
2545 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
2547 * Change the way that memory for message status is
2548 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
2549 the folder/message structure. This required changing
2550 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
2552 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
2555 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
2558 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
2560 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
2561 the debugging output.
2563 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
2564 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
2566 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2568 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
2570 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
2571 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
2573 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
2575 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
2576 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
2577 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
2578 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
2579 in the given sequence.
2581 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
2582 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
2583 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
2584 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
2585 subdirectories of a given directory.
2587 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
2588 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
2589 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
2591 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
2592 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
2594 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
2596 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
2599 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
2600 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
2601 fields are now calculated at runtime.
2603 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
2604 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
2605 are calculated at runtime.
2607 Sun Nov 30 19:14:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2609 * Released nmh-0.18-pre2.
2611 * Add paragraph to man page for install-mh and to INSTALL file
2612 about checking for global mh.profile.
2614 * Renamed m_find() to context_find().
2615 Renamed m_replace() to context_replace().
2616 Renamed m_delete() to context_del().
2617 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
2618 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
2619 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
2621 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
2622 adding message to folder itself.
2624 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
2625 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
2626 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
2629 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
2630 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
2633 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
2634 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
2635 is the same as the direct smtp code).
2637 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
2638 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
2640 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
2641 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
2642 code to use it yet).
2644 Thu Nov 13 18:42:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2646 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.
2648 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never
2649 called with a value larger than 30 mintues.
2651 * Fixed race condition in rmm and refile, so that
2652 context is updated before external rmmproc is called.
2654 * Removed all the OVERHEAD code.
2656 * Move code to add message to folder from refile.c
2659 Fri Jul 25 19:39:29 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2661 * Did some rearranging of the internals of inc.c.
2663 * Make -inplace the default for anno, forw, dist, and repl.
2665 * Changed --enable-smtp to --with-mts={smtp,sendmail}
2667 * Created new directory mts/sendmail for direct sendmail
2668 interface (although it currently still uses SMTP).
2670 * Removed all the TMA (trusted mail agent) code
2672 * Removed all the TTYD (terminal access daemon) code
2674 * Removed all the MF (uucp filtering) code.
2676 * Removed all the code for BERK.
2678 * Removed all the code for stand-alone delivery (MHMTS).
2680 * Split the file mts/sendmail/smail.c into sendmail.c and
2681 smtp.c. Changed the name of the directory to mts/smtp.
2683 * Changed autoconf to use @sysconfdir@ for location of
2684 configuration files.
2686 * Changed #define in mhn.c from FTP to BUILTIN_FTP.
2688 Mon Jul 21 03:22:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2690 * Released nmh-0.17.
2692 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
2694 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
2695 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
2697 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
2700 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
2701 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
2703 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
2704 number of refiled message.
2706 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
2708 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
2709 for return value of wait().
2711 * Change configure to also check /bin for "more".
2713 Sat Jul 12 00:02:23 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2715 * Released nmh-0.16.
2717 Mon Jun 23 20:13:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2719 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
2721 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
2722 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
2723 deal with binary messages, yet).
2725 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
2727 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
2729 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
2730 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
2731 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
2732 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
2733 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
2734 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
2736 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
2737 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
2739 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
2740 From MH-6.8.4 patch.
2742 * Fix double free of ctinfo in user_content when using
2743 #forw with single message. From John MacMillan (and
2746 * Changed -mhnproc switch for show, to -showmimeproc.
2748 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".
2750 * Added "mime" option to "whatnow", which calls the program
2751 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
2754 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
2757 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
2759 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
2760 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
2761 which used unsigned chars by default.
2763 Sat Jun 21 01:21:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2765 * Released nmh-0.15.
2767 * Added new form "scan.unseen" to distribution. It marks messages
2768 which are in any sequence in Unseen-Sequence.
2770 * Do some rearranging of date/time code in zotnet/tws/dtime.c
2772 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
2774 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
2777 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
2778 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
2779 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
2781 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
2782 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
2784 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
2786 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
2787 they conflict with defines on AIX.
2789 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
2790 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
2791 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
2792 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
2794 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
2795 and put in own subroutine.
2797 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
2798 and put in own subroutine.
2800 * Moved code to remove messages from folder into own
2801 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and
2802 refile.c to use new routine.
2804 Fri May 16 06:09:31 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2806 * Renamed m_seqok to seq_nameok.
2808 * Changed m_setunseen, msh, mshcmds, flist, and scan to use
2811 * Changed m_seqflag to return the number of a sequence rather
2812 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
2813 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
2815 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
2818 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before
2819 adding message to sequence.

2931 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
2933 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c

2950 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
2952 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
2953 folder/message structure when done with folder.
2955 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is

3018 * Released nmh-0.08.
3020 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
3021 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of

3029 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
3032 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
3033 rather than mmdf format.
3035 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
3036 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
3037 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
3038 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
3040 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
3042 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3044 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
3047 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
3048 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
3049 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
3051 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
3052 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
3053 rcvpack so you can choose the preferred format.
3055 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3057 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
3058 can still easily change this in config.h).
3060 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
3061 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
3062 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
3064 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3066 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather

3081 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
3083 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
3084 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
3087 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
3088 built-in FTP client in mhn.

3101 * Released nmh-0.06.
3103 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
3104 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
3106 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
3107 many such machines around anymore.
3109 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
3110 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
3112 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
3113 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
3115 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3117 * Check lex generated file in zotnet/tws and use
3118 pre-generated version if necessary.
3120 * Released nmh-0.05.
3122 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
3123 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
3124 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
3125 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
3127 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
3128 be linked in one pass.
3130 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3132 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
3133 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
3135 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3137 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
3139 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3141 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
3142 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
3143 become the current folder.
3145 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3147 * Released nmh-0.04.

3152 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3154 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
3155 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
3156 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
3158 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3160 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
3161 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
3163 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3165 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
3166 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
3169 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
3170 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
3172 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3174 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
3175 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
3176 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
3177 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
3178 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
3179 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
3181 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3183 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
3184 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
3186 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
3187 a file (currently need to specify full path).
3189 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3191 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
3192 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
3194 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3196 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
3197 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
3198 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
3200 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3202 * Released nmh-0.03.
3204 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
3205 .mh_sequence file existed.
3207 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
3208 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
3210 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
3211 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
3214 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3216 * Changed flist option -unseen to -[no]all. Cleaned up
3219 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3221 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
3222 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
3223 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
3225 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3227 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
3228 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
3229 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
3231 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3233 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL
3234 and allocate its own buffer. Borrowed from zsh.
3236 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
3238 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3240 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
3241 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
3242 directory from where the source code is located.
3244 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3246 * Released nmh-0.02.

3266 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
3267 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
3268 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
3269 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
3270 rather than in script.
3272 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3274 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
3276 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with

3281 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
3282 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
3284 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
3285 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
3286 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
3287 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
3290 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3292 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
3293 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.
3295 * Fixed configure test so that termcap variable ospeed is
3298 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3300 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
3302 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included
3303 in mhn.c. Changed md5 to use memset and memcpy.
3305 Fri Dec 20 02:29:37 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3307 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
3308 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
3310 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3312 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
3313 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
3314 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
3315 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
3316 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
3317 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
3319 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3321 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
3323 * Released nmh-0.01.
3325 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
3326 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
3327 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
3330 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3332 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
3335 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3337 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
3338 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
3340 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3342 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
3343 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
3344 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
3345 script to find_program.
3347 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3349 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
3350 speed up -recurse option.
3352 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
3353 yet, but it compiles :-)
3355 * Changed default location for install to
3356 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
3357 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
3358 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
3361 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
3362 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
3363 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
