1 Sat Jul 15 23:13:49 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
3 * Add configure option --with-hash-backup so the backup prefix can
4 be easily changed from "," to "#".
5 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that it works with any make.
7 Tue Jul 11 14:18:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
9 * Clarified post.man and send.man for those not completely up on
10 SASL terminology. "SASL encryption layers are not supported for
11 SMTP" means that encryption is supported for the authentication
12 but not for the subsequent data stream.
14 Sat Jul 8 01:36:19 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
16 * Applied Ken Hornstein <kenh@cmf.nrl.navy.mil>'s patches
17 implementing SASL support for POP3 and SMTP. If nmh is compiled
18 with SASL support, using the -sasl switch on the inc, msgchk,
19 post, and send commands will enable authentication encryption for
20 SMTP, and both authentication and data stream encryption for POP3.
22 Sat Jun 10 18:37:59 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
24 * Merged mts/sendmail functionality into mts/smtp; switching between
25 smtp and sendmail delivery method is now controlled by mts.conf.
27 * If tsort cannot deal with loops, in addition to defining tsort as
28 cat, also define lorder as echo.
30 * Removed uip/popi.c from list of sources.
32 Thu Jun 08 19:36:57 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
34 * New dtimep.lex didn't parse day names properly. Fixed. Also
35 clarified ambiguous comments preceding day_map[] array (from old
36 dtimep.lex) that probably led to the erroneous cp++ being added.
38 Wed Jun 7 20:52:33 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
40 * Added one more mkstemp invocation to uip/spost.c (which was in a
43 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to clean up permissions handling
44 and error handling in uip/inc.c.
46 Mon Jun 5 22:10:07 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
48 * Use cat instead of tsort if tsort cannot deal with loops in its
49 input (which is the case for tsort from GNU textutils).
51 Mon Jun 5 21:14:36 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
53 * If lockfile is present, and its dotlockfile program is setgid,
54 inc does not need to be setgid.
56 Sun Jun 4 21:35:40 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
58 * Added autoconf test for Miquel van Smoorenburg's liblockfile
59 library, as found on Debian systems.
61 * Added liblockfile support to sbr/lock_file.c.
63 Wed May 31 7:19:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
65 * Fixed up dtimep.lex a bit. Added back memory options for AIX to
66 increase available memory. Took out %option noyywrap, which
67 wasn't understood by AT&T lex, as well as the -i
68 case-insensitivity flag.
70 Wed May 31 07:40:45 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
72 * Added a lint target to the Makefiles and a check in autoconf
73 to determine whether lint or lclint exists on the system.
75 Fri May 30 19:21:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
77 * etc/Makefile.in was incorrectly installing mts.conf.in and
78 sendfiles.in -- fixed. Generated sendfiles script was not a
79 dependency of the `all' target, and was incorrectly included in
80 the distribution. Changed the suffix for the backed-up previous
81 versions of the etc files from the ambiguous .old to .prev. Added
82 call to diff -- only keep the .prev files around if different from
83 the newly-installed versions (intentionally didn't redirect output
84 to /dev/null so you'll notice when your changed versions are
87 * INSTALL never documented the etc/*.old thing. Documented the
88 new etc/*.prev thing (including a note to watch for diff output).
90 * Applied Alec Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu>'s dropsbr.c patch:
92 In the map_write routine, a call is made to map_open and this
93 call is supposed to set the "clear" variable to 0 or 1,
94 depending on whether the map file is empty or not. In
95 mh6.8.3, this worked because map_open would set "clear" by
96 calling the mbx_Xopen routine. In nmh, the code for mbx_Xopen
97 was merged into mbx_open, but the interface for mbx_open
98 doesn't support the clear variable, so that functionality was
99 lost. The map_open interface still contains "int *clear" in
100 the prototype, but never sets it.
102 My patch eliminates "clear" from the map_open interface (I
103 checked to make sure that map_write is the only client of
104 map_open). Furthermore, my patch also sets the "clear"
105 variable properly at the beginning of map_write by calling
106 fstat(). This eliminates the bug in that the value of "clear"
107 being used later in the routine was just stack garbage.
109 Having a bad value of clear causes this next bug to be
110 triggered: The fp file pointer was being opened with fdopen,
111 but in two of the three switch cases it wasn't being closed.
112 In certain cases, this was causing packf to run out of file
113 descriptors if you attempted to pack a large folder.
115 Mon May 29 7:48:15 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
117 * Moved the date parsing routines from zotnet/tws to sbr/ (and
118 tws.h to h/). Updated all source files to reflect to new location
121 * Rewrote dparsetime (in dtimep.lex -> dtimep.c) to replace the
122 old zotnet/tws/dtimep.c, dtimep.lex, lexstring.c, lexedit.c, and
123 dtimep.c-lexed. It should now work with flex (although untested
124 with lex), and requires no sed-ing. For now, I have the lexed
125 version in the distribution, so that end-users don't need to worry
126 about running it through flex/lex. I have not added back support
127 for guessing the time zone when it's not specified.
129 Sun May 28 17:44:15 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
131 * Added autoconf check for getutent().
133 * Changed uip/rcvtty.c and uip/slocal.c to use getutent() and
134 friends. Since I can only check on Linux, please check if
135 this works on other systems.
137 Sun May 28 14:58:49 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
139 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to uip/scansbr.c for more
140 checks for write failures.
142 * Unlink temporary file properly in uip/rcvtty.c.
144 * Moved viamail from bindir to libdir.
146 * Changed sendfiles into sendfiles.in, so that path to viamail
149 * Added gzip support to sendfiles.
151 * Added References header to replcomps and replgroupcomps.
153 Sun May 28 14:39:31 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
155 * Fixed m_getfld bug which caused segmentation faults when
156 incorporating messages which ended in multiple linefeeds crossing
159 Fri May 26 13:21:59 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
161 * msh has been unable to show MIME messages ever since 1.0. Alec
162 Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu> tracked down the problem to the
163 -show flag being passed to mhshow. mhshow is equivalent to the
164 old mhn -show, so we don't need the -show anymore. Removed it.
166 Fri May 12 02:51:21 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
168 * zotnet/bboards is not longer built by default. Goal is to move
169 the assorted functions in zotnet into sbr or some more logical
172 * Moved zotnet/mf to sbr, and changed mf.h references accordingly,
173 as well as Makefiles.
175 Thu May 11 02:21:34 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
177 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that both SRCS and OBJS aren't
178 seperately and redundantly defined, but so that OBJS is a
179 pattern-substituted version of SRCS with suffix .c -> .o. This
180 should make maintainability easier.
182 * Added section to MACHINES indicating what platforms nmh is known
183 to compile and work on, just to give users peace of mind, or
184 something. This is by no means complete or exhaustive, so add
185 whatever you know works.
187 Tue May 09 20:38:04 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
189 * Alphabetized Shantonu's $pop_kinds output on configure's "pop is
190 enabled" line. If POP3 is the only kind of POP enabled, say so,
191 rather than just saying "yes" (which is ambiguous).
193 * Fixed four warnings in Shantonu's new getpass.c. Needed to
194 #include <stdlib.h> for calloc(), <unistd.h> for ttyname(), and
195 "h/mh.h" for adios(). Also changed ch from char to int to get rid
196 of "comparison is always 1 due to limited range of data type" on EOF.
198 * Added steps to README.developers saying to change the version
199 number to X.Y.Z+dev. Did a little rearranging and changed the FTP
200 dir from /home/ftp to /var/ftp to reflect Doug's new machine.
202 * Changed configure.in to use gcc -Wall even without
203 --enable-debug, to prevent developers compiling optimized from
204 introducing warnings, and to give end-users a warm, fuzzy feeling
205 as they (hopefully) see no warnings come out (except perhaps on
206 the lex output file) even with -Wall.
208 * Renamed getpass() to nmh_getpass() since the prototype for
209 getpass() varies from OS to OS, and we want to _always_ use our
210 version of the function. Fixed all the callers to use
211 nmh_getpass() and added it to prototypes.h. Semi-arbitrarily
212 upped MAX_PASSWORD_LEN from 128 to 256. buf was being calloc()'d
213 and the memory leaked -- should have just been declared as static
214 char array. Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the
215 copyright message, as this version has been changed significantly
216 from the BSD version.
218 * Added "nmh-local functions to use in preference to OS versions"
219 section to README.developers (currently just says to use
220 nmh_getpass() instead of system getpass()).
222 * Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the copyright message
225 * Added mts.conf.5 page per Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s
228 This happens on solaris:
231 windex entry incorrect: mts.conf(5) not found.
232 No manual entry for mts.conf.
236 % echo ".so man5/mh-tailor.5" > mts.conf.5
238 done in the man5 directory. We need to add 'mts.conf.5' as a
239 reference sourcing mh-tailor.5.
241 Mon May 08 23:51:55 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
243 * Doug informed me that the way I had restored the "lost" version
244 histories was wrong, because `cvs checkout's of old versions of
245 nmh wouldn't work properly. It occurs to me that this could be
246 fixed by simply deleting those tags in the new-location *,v files,
247 but oh well. I'm putting everything back to the way Doug
248 originally had it. To get the old version history for a file that
249 used to be in the top directory, you'll need to "blindly" do a
250 `cvs log' there (even though you won't have a local copy of the
251 file in that directory). `cvs diff' will no longer be able to
252 diff pre-move versions vs. post-move versions -- you'll have to do
253 a lot of manual gyrations with `cvs checkout' and then use `diff'.
255 * I had alphabetized the --configure options in the --help output
256 awhile back, but Shantonu added --enable-apop just under
257 --enable-pop. Put it in alphabetical order and clarified what
258 --enable-apop does vs. --enable-pop and --with-krb4. Also changed
259 --with-mts help line from "mail transport agent" to "mail
260 transport agent/service" so the 's' in "mts" doesn't seem to come
263 * Added two steps to "releasing nmh" in README.developers. After
264 making the tarball, it's a good idea to diff the tree vs. the CVS
265 tree to make sure no files got left out, and then to chown the
266 files so that they're owned by root, preventing a Trojaning attack
267 by a malicious remote user with a UID matching yours.
269 * Changed DIFFERENCES to say that RPOP is not currently supported
270 rather than implying it by saying that APOP, KPOP, and POP[3] are.
272 Sun May 07 18:16:43 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
274 * Imported NetBSD version of getpass() and made extensive
275 revisions for compatibility with programs that pipe the password
276 to stdin, such as exmh.
278 * Removed tests for system ruserpass() which sometimes gave
279 phantom positive results. Also, bext to use internal functions if
280 we ever want to change .netrc format to something else, or access
283 Sat May 06 08:28:09 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
285 * Restored lost version histories for those moved files by doing a
286 manual `mv' in the CVSROOT on mhost. CVS badly needs a `cvs mv'
287 command so that you can move files (without having physical access
288 to the CVSROOT) without losing versioning. Put MACHINES back at
289 the top level as it needs to be read before building. Fixed DIST
290 variable in {.,docs}/Makefile.in to reflect that and to add
291 missing entry for "INSTALL" file.
293 Sat May 06 13:13:07 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
295 * Re-cleaned up nmh documentation (by moving things to docs
296 subdir) and modified Makefile & configure.in to handle the change.
298 Mon Apr 17 21:28:40 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
300 * Scott Blachowicz pointed out that the configure --help output
301 for --enable-masquerade was misleading. Clarified.
303 Mon Apr 17 19:01:00 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
305 * APOP support can be compiled in to inc and msgchk using
308 * To access an APOP host, specify -apop on the command line
309 along with any -host or -user option.
311 Fri Apr 14 23:10:44 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
313 * Upped the version number to 1.0.4+dev until the next nmh release.
315 * Added a "releasing nmh" section to README.developers, while the
316 process was fresh in my mind.
318 Fri Apr 14 18:21:34 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
320 * Added new files README.developers, ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6, and
321 ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html to DIST target in Makefile.in.
323 * Released nmh-1.0.4.
325 Tue Apr 11 21:37:03 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
327 * Applied Brian Campbell <bacam@tardis.ed.ac.uk>'s mhn.defaults.sh
330 It appears that there shouldn't be quotes around the %s in the
331 iso-8859-1 charset entry; xterm passes the remaining arguments
332 to the program, quoting them means that xterm thinks they're
333 part of the program's name.
335 This %s isn't the same as the "Insert content subtype" one from
336 mhshow-show-* -- it doesn't come from MIME headers and is safe not
339 Sun Apr 09 13:03:59 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
341 * added check in fmt_compile() to handle a single-character
342 format string. fmt_compile() depends on having an array of
343 format characters with an empty item at the end. A
344 single-character format would cause programs using this
345 function to segfault because the algorithm used to decide on
346 the length of the array mistakenly created a single-item array
347 when the format string was one character. This eventually
348 caused problems when the program attempted to test item+1
351 Thu Apr 06 21:53:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
353 * Richard Coleman threw out a lot of old MH-specific files in nmh.
354 Much of the stuff, indeed, is not worth saving, but there are
355 nuggets that are very worthwhile, and should probably be added
356 back in. Most important, IMHO, are the MH change logs, as they
357 can help answer questions like "Why is this code like this?" or
358 "How long has this been broken?" or "What was this ever used for?"
360 I've added a new file to the nmh tree called
361 ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6. It's cobbled together from the
362 mh-6.8.4/papers/mh*/MHCHANGES files. I've re-ordered the entries
363 to go from newest at the top to oldest at the bottom to match the
364 ChangeLog convention. Unfortunately there are no change logs for
365 versions of MH prior to 3 in the MH tar files available at
366 <ftp://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/mh>. Also, it appears to me that there
367 are MH-6.6 changes that aren't documented in the logs.
369 I've also added ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html. This is
370 based on mh-6.8.4/papers/changes/mh-changes.ms. The nroff format
371 and its "catman"-type output are a pain to deal with, but I was
372 loath to throw away the formatting, so I converted the file to
373 HTML. The only actual markup in the body are the "<B>" and "<U>"
374 tags, and "<" and ">" instead of '<' and '>', so it's quite
375 doable to view the file in plain ASCII mode as well. Note that
376 some of the changes this file documents as having been made in
377 MH-6.8.4 may not be present in nmh -- Richard started with 6.8.3
378 and later put in certain 6.8.4 stuff.
380 Wed Apr 05 21:09:28 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
382 * Applied Eric Schnoebelen <eric@cirr.com>'s mhshowsbr.c patch
383 fixing apparent bugs in Dan Winship's new security quoting code:
385 Since upgrading, I've been getting the following errors
386 while attempting to process some MIME messages:
388 (1) Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
393 (2) line 1/10 (END)Segmentation fault (core dumped)
395 (2) appears to be due to the testing of an unset pointer in
396 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux(). (1) appears to be caused by
397 mis-quoting a filename being handed to the shell in
398 mhshowsbr.c:show_content_aux().
400 Resolving the pointer reference issue in
401 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux() turned up a similar mis-quoting
402 problem in the routine.
404 Tue Mar 28 16:17:39 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
406 * Applied Todd.Miller@courtesan.com's patch to dropsbr.c to
407 prevent core dumping on packf. Here's the note from his message:
409 Since sizeof(buffer) == sizeof(tmpbuffer) packf will dump
410 core on a file w/o a From line with a line >= BUFSIZ.
411 I noticed this because I had a junk file in my mail
414 Fri Mar 17 11:59:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
416 * wesley.craig@umich.edu did not document his previous KPOP patch,
417 so I did so, and asked him to check what I wrote. Unfortunately
418 he didn't notice my misunderstanding of his patch. I wrote that
419 if you #define POPSERVICE "kpop", inc and msgchk will use KPOP
420 exclusively, but if you leave it as "pop3", you can use Wesley's
421 new -kpop switch on a given invocation. Instead, however, -kpop
422 turned out to be necessary on every invocation, and a KPOP user
423 complained. Applied Wesley's new patch, which makes things work
424 like I thought his original patch did. After that, did one more
425 clarifying pass to the documentation in inc.man and msgchk.man.
427 Wed Mar 15 18:45:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
429 * When I fixed the long-standing makedir() bugs in January, I had
430 the code call strtoul(..., 0), which I believed to be safe as all
431 modes specified as ASCII constants in the nmh code started with a
432 leading zero (signifying octal), which I did as it would work if
433 internal constants were ever changed to hex. Unfortunately I was
434 unaware of the "Folder-Protect:" .mh_profile entry, which
435 mh-profile.man documents as an octal-only constant, with no
436 leading zero required. I've changed the strtoul() call to an
437 atooi() call and removed the misleading leading zeroes on the
438 ASCII octal constants in the code and man pages. Also changed the
439 "Folder-Protect:" example in the man page to something more
440 interesting than a duplication of the default.
442 * When I added my --enable-masquerade option, you'll note that I
443 didn't make it --enable-nmh-masquerade. I find the --enable-nmh-*
444 options too wordy and I'm not sure why Richard went that route.
445 I've renamed them to just --enable-*, but the old versions will
446 still work as well (they just aren't advertised).
448 * Added a line to the "nmh configuration" output saying whether
451 * Added a new README.developers file. From the file:
453 This file is intended to provide a few tips for anyone doing
454 development on nmh. Developers who learn things "the hard
455 way" about the nmh codebase (as opposed to local info best
456 encoded in a comment) are encouraged to share their wisdom
459 Currently the topics are "autoconf files" and "directory structure".
461 Tue Mar 14 12:41:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
463 * Applied, after some finessing,
464 Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s --with-smtpservers patch:
466 Here's a patch that allows you to add
468 --with-smtpservers=<some.host.name>
470 to the ./configure command line to set the "servers: " line in
471 etc/mts.conf. Around here, we use "mailhost" so that all
472 machines in the current domain just talk to a central machine
473 and nothing else runs an MTA. Now, I can use
475 --with-smtpservers=mailhost
477 instead of having to remember to fix this by hand (and often
478 forgetting to do so!).
480 * Inspired by Simon's patch, added an --enable-masquerade option
481 to configure. It will set the "masquerade:" line of mts.conf.
482 You may specify a subset of the three types of masquerading, like
483 --enable-masquerade="draft_from mmailid", or leave off explicit
484 arguments to enable all three types.
486 * Alphabetized the --enable and --with options in configure.in and
487 INSTALL and added documentation of the two new options to the latter.
489 * Added new dependency for mts.conf: Makefile. If this isn't
490 done, then when you reconfigure nmh with new values for
491 --enable-masquerade or --with-smtpservers, you'll fail to get an
492 updated copy of mts.conf.
494 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtimep.lex patch:
496 It seems that some MUA's didn't handle y2k very well - ELM
497 seems to be one of them, and Ultrix's DXmail (based on MH!).
498 I've got a few emails this month that look like:
500 575 Jan 00 Xxxxxx Xxxx 3603 ...
502 22+ Jan 00 Xxx Xxxxx 1771 ...
504 The first has "15 Jan 100" as the date and the second has
505 "19 Jan 00" as the date. The following works around this so
506 that scan, show, sortm, etc work ok.
508 I put Simon's patch under the control of a new #define called
509 FIX_NON_Y2K_COMPLIANT_MUA_DATES. There's some commentary in
510 acconfig.h about when you might not want to #define it.
512 * Created new dtimep.c-lexed with Simon's change using dtimep.lex
513 lexed on Solaris 2.6. Added missing dependency in
514 zotnet/tws/Makefile.in for dtimep.c: dtimep.c-lexed.
516 * Added scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD format files.
518 Mon Mar 13 21:32:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
520 * Applied Sullivan N. Beck <sbeck@cise.ufl.edu>'s mhshow-suffix patch:
522 With the patch below, you can add lines like:
524 mhshow-suffix-application/msword: .doc
525 mhshow-suffix-application/PostScript: .ps
527 to the mhn.defaults file to append the given suffix to a
528 scratch file. This allows applications which require a
529 certain suffix to run properly.
531 * Removed -force_html from lynx entry in mhn.defaults.sh (I
532 believe older versions of lynx lack that option) and added
533 "mhshow-suffix-text/html: .html".
535 * Modified username_extension masquerading to only use the
536 extended address on generated [Resent-]From: lines and SMTP
537 envelope From:. With Neil's original implementation, nmh's global
538 idea of the username was changed, which would result in inc lying
539 and saying you had no new mail because it was looking for a
540 mailbox called, for instance, "dan-nmh" (where username was "dan"
541 and $USERNAME_EXTENSION was "-nmh").
543 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtime.c patch:
545 There's a wrap-around problem that affects the implementation
546 of Zeller's congruence in dtime.c. This causes the day-of-week
547 calculations to fail for dates after Feb 29, 2000 (probably up
548 until some year far in the future).
550 Mon Mar 06 12:20:20 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
552 * Applied Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s msh.c patch:
554 I finally tracked down the problem in msh that was causing
555 errors whenever I tried to examine a 'mmdf' style mailbox.
557 It turns out that not enough memory was being allocated with
558 calloc(), causing memory pointers to be overwritten and
561 Fri Mar 03 16:07:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
563 * Changed the new "plussed_user" option to mts.conf's
564 "masquerade:" to "username_extension" after getting feedback from
565 qmail users, who use '-' as a separator rather than '+'. Removed
566 checking of $USERPLUS variable. Now check $USERNAME_EXTENSION,
567 which needs to include the appropriate separator for your MTA
568 ('-', '+', or whatever) as its first character.
570 Thu Mar 02 23:04:30 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
572 * Added a new "boolean" type to mh.h and TRUE and FALSE constants.
574 * Added a note to DIFFERENCES stating that it's out-of-date
575 (Richard was the last one to update it) and that we should
576 consider only documenting incompatibilities with MH there.
578 * Implemented (and documented) a third kind of username
579 masquerading: "plussed user" masquerading. This one was suggested
580 by Neil Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>. It's based on sendmail's
581 "plussed user" feature, where mail sent to <user>+<string> will be
582 delivered to <user>. When it's enabled, it's controlled by the
583 $USERPLUS environment variable. How is it enabled? Well, that
586 * Renamed the "mmailid:" setting in mts.conf to "masquerade:", and
587 changed it so that rather than being a boolean, it can be set to
588 any combination of the three values "draft_from", "mmailid", and
589 "plussed_user". Thus it is now possible to enable the three types
590 of masquerading individually.
592 * Fixed a bug with "mmailid" masquerading (dating back to MH?)
593 where if it was turned on, ','s would no longer be considered
594 GECOS field delimiters.
596 Wed Mar 01 23:30:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
598 * Changed the GECOS-field '&' translation behavior to be
599 controlled by the BSD42 #define rather than GCOS_HACK, since it's
600 apparently always appropriate on OSes where BSD42 is #defined, and
601 never appropriate on any other OSes. Thanks to Kimmo Suominen for
602 responding to my "What is this code here for?" comment in mts.c
603 and explaining the feature.
605 Mon Feb 28 21:50:29 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
607 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3+dev (ideally this should be
608 done by whoever makes a release tar file, immediately after doing
611 * Applied Paul Fox <pgf-spam@foxharp.boston.ma.us>'s scansbr.c
612 patch, posted to comp.mail.mh, which he says prevents loss of mail
613 when inc'ing into a full filesystem.
615 * Changed "echo > stamp-h.in" in Makefile.in to "date > stamp-h.in"
616 so that stamp-h.in will be different each time configure.in and
617 related files are changed, making it easier to check it in (which
618 is necessary to prevent unnecessary autoconf calls).
620 * My declaration of initgroups() in slocal.c to eliminate the "no
621 prototype" warning wasn't portable (FreeBSD 3.[23] choked). Now
622 use AC_EGREP_HEADER to see where initgroups() is declared, if
625 Sun Feb 20 12:17:15 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
627 * Fix security hole in mhshowsbr.c which allowed untrusted shell
630 * Released nmh 1.0.3.
632 Thu Feb 10 10:54:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
634 * Oops. %-escapes on mhstore lines in mhn.defaults.sh should not
635 be surrounded by single quotes, as a shell is not spawned when
636 just saving files, and the filenames will end up with literal
637 quotes embedded in them.
639 Fri Feb 04 12:29:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
641 * Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
642 got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
643 the -help output. One theory is that they were making reference
644 to the fact that clearly you know about the -help option since
645 you're currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea
646 to overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
647 supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
650 The other theory is that because you can say something like
651 "mhstore -" and get "mhstore: - ambiguous. It matches" followed
652 by the same list of switches you get with -help, they were saying
653 you can "sorta" abbreviate "-help" as "-". You don't get the
654 "Usage:" string, though, so it's not really the same thing.
656 Thu Feb 03 17:52:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
658 * Applied wesley.craig@umich.edu's KPOP patches. According to him:
660 The following patch fixes a problem with requesting a
661 service key for a machine that has multiple 'A' records. It
662 also makes "-kpop" a command line option, for users who
663 would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".
665 Did no testing of the new features, as I don't have access to a
668 * Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
670 * Modified INSTALL and config.h.in to reflect the new -kpop feature.
672 Fri Jan 28 17:39:24 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
674 * All %-escapes in mhn.defaults that actually expand to something
675 should be surrounded by single quotes. Added quotes to the ones
676 in mhn.defaults.sh that were missing them.
678 * Added check for lynx to write mhshow-show-text/html line in
681 Thu Jan 27 12:22:25 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
683 * makedir() had multiple bugs dating back to MH. An octal
684 constant was apparently being interpreted as decimal, resulting in
685 directories with no user read or execute permissions, making
686 nested directory creation fail. And there wasn't even an
687 _attempt_ to set desired permissions (e.g. from "Folder-Protect:"
688 in .mh_profile) on the outer directories of a nested directory.
690 * A second `make install' would always fail because the check for
691 whether mh_profile.5 existed was written incorrectly.
693 Wed Jan 26 02:22:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
695 * Added documentation on both types of masquerading to post's man
698 Tue Jan 25 22:58:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
700 * Doug's portability fix of my setgid inc autodetection had a
701 caching bug -- if you re-ran configure, uip/Makefile would be
702 corrupted, and installation would bomb out on OSes where inc needs
705 * Implemented a new kind of email address masquerading. Usually,
706 when a user writes a custom "From:" header in a draft, nmh uses it
707 rather than generating one. However, the user's true address is
708 used in the SMTP envelope "From:" and is revealed in the "Sender:"
709 header. Now, when mmailid is set to non-zero, the envelope
710 "From:" uses the address specified in the draft "From:" header,
711 and there is no "Sender:" header. This is useful when sending on
712 behalf of a remote POP3 account or when remote mail robots
713 incorrectly use the envelope "From:" in preference to the body
714 "From:". This processing has only been implemented for post, not
715 for the undocumented spost (which was already missing some "From:"
716 processing that post has).
718 Mon Jan 24 22:26:06 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
720 * Got rid of the rest of the gcc -Wall warnings that I didn't have
721 time for on 1999-07-15 (and, it would seem, some new ones people
722 introduced since then). The primary ones were the warnings that
723 default prototypes were being used for [v]snprintf() and
724 str[n]casecmp(). As of right now, there are _no_ compilation
725 warnings except on dtimep.c-lexed (at least under AIX 4.1.5 and
728 Sun Jan 2 23:42:18 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
730 * Move mhtest from bindir to libdir.
732 * Move sendfiles from libdir to bindir.
734 * Updated sendfiles manpage to reflect this change.
736 * Added documentation for -build and -file switches to repl and
737 forw manpages (patch from Peter Maydell).
739 * Fixed interaction between specifying -cc in profile and -group on
742 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
744 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
745 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
746 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
749 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
751 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
752 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
753 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
754 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
755 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
756 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).
758 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
760 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
762 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
764 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
765 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
766 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
767 caught again. This works for now.
769 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
771 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
773 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
774 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
776 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
778 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
779 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
781 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
783 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
785 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
787 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
788 changes. Both need more cleanup.
790 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
792 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
793 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
794 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
795 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
796 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
799 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
801 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
802 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
803 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
805 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
806 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
809 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
811 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
812 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
813 to a directory on another device with more free space.
815 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
817 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
818 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
820 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
822 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
825 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
826 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
828 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
829 macros, regardless of platform.
831 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
832 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
834 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
835 with x-conversions=gzip.
837 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
839 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
842 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
843 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
844 implicit definition of ioctl().
846 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
847 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
848 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
849 want to mess with them.
851 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
853 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
854 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
856 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
857 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
859 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
860 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
861 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
863 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
864 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
865 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
867 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
870 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
873 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
874 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
877 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
878 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
881 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
882 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
886 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
888 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
889 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
890 preventing compilation on at least linux.
892 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
893 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
895 Thu Sep 09 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
897 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
899 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
900 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
901 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
902 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
904 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
905 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
907 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
909 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
911 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
913 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
914 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
916 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
918 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
919 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
921 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
922 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
923 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
924 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
926 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
927 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
929 Sat Jun 09 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
931 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
932 substitute it for mktemp if available.
934 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
936 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
937 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
940 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
942 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
944 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
946 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
947 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
949 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
950 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
951 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
953 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
954 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
955 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
957 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
958 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
959 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
961 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
962 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
965 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
966 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
968 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
969 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
971 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
974 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
975 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
976 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
978 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
979 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
981 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
982 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
983 <elleron@servtech.com>.
985 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
986 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
989 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
990 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
992 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
993 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
994 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
995 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
997 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
998 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
1000 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1004 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
1005 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
1006 would not be changed.
1008 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
1009 one from the Apache web server.
1011 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
1012 (this should have been done a long time ago).
1014 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
1015 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
1016 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
1018 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
1020 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
1022 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
1023 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
1026 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
1027 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
1028 removes a bad race condition.
1030 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
1033 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
1034 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
1035 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
1037 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
1038 sequence information.
1040 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
1041 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
1043 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
1046 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
1049 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
1051 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
1052 interpret 034 as octal.
1054 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
1056 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
1057 mhstore, and mhbuild.
1059 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
1060 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
1062 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
1063 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
1065 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
1066 in the c_cefile structure when building.
1068 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
1069 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
1071 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
1072 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
1073 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
1075 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
1076 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
1077 and mhshow. Updated man pages
1079 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
1081 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
1083 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
1084 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
1087 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
1089 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
1090 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
1092 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
1093 header field information.
1095 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
1096 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
1098 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
1099 values when parsing a content.
1101 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
1102 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
1104 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
1105 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
1107 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
1108 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1110 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
1111 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
1113 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
1115 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
1117 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
1119 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
1121 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
1122 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
1125 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
1126 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
1128 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
1129 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
1130 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
1131 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
1132 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
1133 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
1136 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1138 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
1139 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
1140 buffer length checks for this parameter.
1142 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
1143 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
1145 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1147 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
1148 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
1149 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
1150 of the limits on the length of command lines.
1152 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
1153 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
1156 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
1157 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
1158 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
1159 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
1162 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1164 * Released nmh-0.27.
1166 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
1167 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
1169 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
1170 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
1171 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
1172 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
1175 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
1176 mhbuild returns an error.
1178 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
1179 rename the draft file.
1181 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
1182 use a global variable.
1184 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
1185 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
1187 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
1188 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
1190 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
1191 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
1192 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
1194 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
1195 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
1197 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
1198 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
1201 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
1202 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
1205 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
1206 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
1208 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
1209 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
1210 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
1212 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
1213 to new function output_content_folder.
1215 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
1216 new function output_content_file.
1218 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
1219 to new function parse_format_string.
1221 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
1222 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
1223 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
1224 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
1226 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
1227 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
1228 message/external file from ftp.
1230 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
1231 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
1232 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
1234 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
1235 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
1238 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
1241 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
1242 new file mhstoresbr.c
1244 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
1247 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
1248 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
1250 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
1251 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
1253 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
1254 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
1255 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
1257 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
1259 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
1261 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
1262 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
1265 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
1266 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
1268 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
1271 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
1273 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1275 * Released nmh-0.26.
1277 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
1278 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
1279 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
1280 is still the same (dashstuffing).
1282 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
1283 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
1284 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
1285 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
1286 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
1288 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
1289 But it is not on by default.
1291 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
1292 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
1294 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
1296 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
1298 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
1300 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
1302 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
1303 number of the "cur" message when packing.
1305 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1307 * Released nmh-0.25.
1309 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
1310 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
1311 uses the original name of the library.
1313 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
1314 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
1317 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
1318 list_content and list_debug.
1320 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
1322 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
1323 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.
1325 1998-02-27 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1327 * Released nmh-0.24.
1329 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
1331 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
1332 are given, that order doesn't matter.
1334 * Fix bug in seq_list.c when realloc'ing for
1335 large sequence line.
1337 1998-02-23 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1339 * Released nmh-0.23.
1341 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
1343 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
1344 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan
1345 content, decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary
1346 string). I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
1348 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
1349 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
1352 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
1354 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
1356 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
1358 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
1359 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
1361 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
1362 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.
1364 * Add note to MACHINES file that on Linux, configure
1365 doesn't find the functions sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
1367 * Fix configuration for machines that don't have (or find)
1368 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
1370 1998-02-11 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1372 * Released nmh-0.22.
1374 * Add a configure check for sigsetjmp. Add some conditional
1375 #define's in h/signals.h in case it's not found.
1377 * Added additional notes about -auto switch in mhn man page.
1379 * Added note about MM_CHARSET environment variable to
1380 mh-profile(5) man page.
1382 * Fix signal problem in mhn.c (change setjmp/longjmp to
1383 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp).
1385 1998-02-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1387 * Released nmh-0.22-pre1.
1389 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
1390 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
1392 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
1394 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
1395 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
1396 entry point for parsing MIME files.
1398 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
1399 source message on the standard input.
1401 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
1403 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
1404 rather than -rfc934mode.
1406 * Fix mhbuild, so that Content-Description and RFC-822 comments
1407 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
1410 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
1411 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).
1413 * Restore HP specific code to zotnet/tws/lexstring.c. Apparently
1416 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1418 * Released nmh-0.21.
1420 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
1421 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.
1423 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what transfer
1426 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what character set
1427 to use for text contents.
1429 * Removed old hpux specific code from zotnet/tws/lexstring.c
1431 1998-02-02 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1433 * Released nmh-0.21-pre2.
1435 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
1437 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
1438 header fields as per RFC-2047.
1440 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
1441 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
1442 spaces between encoded word are.
1444 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
1446 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
1447 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
1449 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
1450 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
1451 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
1453 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
1455 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
1456 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
1458 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.
1460 * Added support for %(decode) to fmtdump.c.
1462 * check_charset() now accepts US-ASCII as a subset of any
1463 ISO-8859-X character set.
1465 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
1468 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
1469 permissions, not write permissions.
1471 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
1472 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
1474 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
1477 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1479 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
1481 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
1482 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
1484 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
1485 message contains valid character set.
1487 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
1488 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
1490 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
1491 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
1493 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
1494 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
1495 between an encoded word and normal text.
1497 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
1498 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
1500 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
1501 as a RFC-2047 header field.
1503 * The command install-mh now recognizes the switches -version
1506 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
1507 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
1510 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
1511 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
1513 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
1514 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
1516 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
1518 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1520 * Released nmh-0.20.
1522 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
1524 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.
1526 * Changed the default format file for mhl (mhl.format) to
1527 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
1528 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
1530 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
1531 and the To: line was missing.
1533 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
1535 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1537 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
1539 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
1540 watch the POP transaction.
1542 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
1543 first, and use it if available.
1545 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
1546 first, and use it if available.
1548 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1550 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
1552 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
1553 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
1554 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
1557 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
1558 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
1559 returns the state FLDPLUS.
1561 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
1562 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
1565 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
1567 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
1568 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
1570 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
1572 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
1573 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
1575 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
1576 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
1577 message to which you are replying.
1579 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
1580 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
1581 making group replies.
1583 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
1585 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1587 * Released nmh-0.19.
1589 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
1590 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
1592 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
1593 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
1594 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
1595 to the end of the man page.
1597 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
1598 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
1599 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
1600 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
1601 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
1602 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
1604 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
1607 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
1608 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
1609 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
1611 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
1612 the next available number above the message number you wish
1615 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
1616 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
1618 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
1619 file sbr/seq_print.c
1621 * flist will now update the current folder.
1623 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
1624 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
1625 but now undocumented.
1627 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
1630 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
1631 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
1633 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
1635 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
1636 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
1638 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1640 * Released nmh-0.18.
1642 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
1643 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
1644 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
1646 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
1647 retains the public/private status of sequences.
1649 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
1650 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
1651 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
1652 previous public/private status.
1654 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
1657 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
1660 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
1661 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
1662 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
1664 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
1665 take option to determine whether it should get current
1666 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
1667 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
1669 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
1671 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
1672 wait for stopped processes.
1674 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
1675 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
1677 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1679 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
1681 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
1682 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
1684 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
1685 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
1687 * Change the way that memory for message status is
1688 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
1689 the folder/message structure. This required changing
1690 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
1692 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
1695 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
1698 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
1700 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
1701 the debugging output.
1703 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
1704 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
1706 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1708 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
1710 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
1711 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
1713 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
1715 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
1716 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
1717 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
1718 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
1719 in the given sequence.
1721 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
1722 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
1723 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
1724 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
1725 subdirectories of a given directory.
1727 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
1728 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
1729 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
1731 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
1732 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
1734 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
1736 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
1739 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
1740 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
1741 fields are now calculated at runtime.
1743 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
1744 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
1745 are calculated at runtime.

1757 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
1758 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
1759 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
1761 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
1762 adding message to folder itself.
1764 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
1765 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
1766 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
1769 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
1770 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
1773 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
1774 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
1775 is the same as the direct smtp code).
1777 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
1778 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
1780 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
1781 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
1782 code to use it yet).

1832 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
1834 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
1835 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".

1840 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
1841 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
1843 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
1844 number of refiled message.
1846 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
1848 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
1849 for return value of wait().

1859 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
1861 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
1862 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
1863 deal with binary messages, yet).
1865 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
1867 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
1869 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
1870 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
1871 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
1872 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
1873 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
1874 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
1876 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
1877 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
1879 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
1880 From MH-6.8.4 patch.

1891 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
1894 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
1897 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
1899 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to

1905 * Released nmh-0.15.
1907 * Added new form "scan.unseen" to distribution. It marks messages

1912 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
1914 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
1917 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
1918 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
1919 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
1921 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
1922 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
1924 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
1926 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since

1929 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
1930 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
1931 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
1932 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
1934 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
1935 and put in own subroutine.
1937 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
1938 and put in own subroutine.

1941 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and
1942 refile.c to use new routine.
1944 Fri May 16 06:09:31 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1946 * Renamed m_seqok to seq_nameok.
1948 * Changed m_setunseen, msh, mshcmds, flist, and scan to use
1951 * Changed m_seqflag to return the number of a sequence rather
1952 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
1953 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
1955 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
1958 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before
1959 adding message to sequence.

1970 all selected messages from a sequence.
1972 * Added new function m_seqaddsel to m_seqadd.c, which adds all
1973 selected messages to a sequence.
1975 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,
1978 Thu May 15 00:53:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1980 * Renamed function pack_folder to m_packfolder, and moved it
1981 from uip/folder.c into its own file sbr/m_packfolder.c
1983 Wed May 14 23:38:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1985 * Changed function m_gmsg to m_readfolder. Renamed file

2022 * Released nmh-0.13.
2024 * Changed mhpath so it doesn't abort if a message sequence
2025 such as "mhpath all" expands to more than 1000 messages.
2026 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
2027 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
2030 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
2031 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
2033 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2035 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if
2036 necessary. So `folders' can now handle more than 300 folders.
2038 Tue Apr 22 14:01:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2040 * Change configure to use a compile check to see if the tm struct

2065 * Merge Linux patch sent in by Michel Oosterhof (original
2066 patch from bsa@kf8nh.wariat.org).
2068 * Document an undocumented MH feature. mhn -form mhl.null
2069 will suppress the display of the message header.
2071 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
2073 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c
2074 and mshcmds.c, rather than hard coding in /bin/cat.
2076 * Add mhnproc to the list of `procs' in mh-profile.man.
2078 * Add configure test for lorder and tsort commands.
2080 * Commented out the padding in the `msgs` struct in h/mh.h
2082 * Change m_gmsg.c to allocate elements to the `info' array by
2083 500 elements at a time (rather than MAXFOLDERS / 5).
2085 * Add note to man page for mhmail that zero length messages are
2086 not sent. Need to use -body "" to send empty messages.
2088 * zotnet/mts/mts.c : compare character with '\0', not NULL.
2090 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
2092 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
2093 folder/message structure when done with folder.
2095 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is
2096 defined even if message is missing "From " line.
2098 Mon Mar 31 03:37:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2100 * Released nmh-0.10.

2110 The "From " line is now removed from all messages.
2112 * inc now saves the date from the "From " envelope in the
2113 Delivery-Date header for all messages.
2115 * sbr/m_getfld.c: Clean up processing of Return-Path and
2116 Delivery-Date from the "From " envelope.
2118 Mon Mar 17 19:03:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2120 * client.c: cast iaddr to int before comparing return value
2121 of inet_addr with NOTOK.
2123 Tue Mar 11 04:38:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2125 * Grep test for signal names was failing on some OS'es because

2146 Tue Mar 4 03:10:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2148 * ruserpass.c : removed conflicting prototypes.
2150 * rcvtty.c : Fixed rcvtty to obey terminal permissions granted
2151 by `mesg' command. Previously only worked on BSD machines.
2153 Mon Mar 3 00:18:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2155 * rcvtty.c : Changed to use #define UTMP_FILE (if exists) rather
2156 than hard coded "/etc/utmp".
2158 * Released nmh-0.08.
2160 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
2161 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of
2162 locking database itself.

2166 * Added slocal action `mmdf' to deliver to a file in mmdf format.
2168 * Changed the slocal actions `file' and `>' to always deliver in
2169 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
2172 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
2173 rather than mmdf format.
2175 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
2176 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
2177 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
2178 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
2180 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
2182 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2184 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
2187 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2188 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2189 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
2191 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2192 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to

2195 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2197 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
2198 can still easily change this in config.h).
2200 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
2201 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
2202 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
2204 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2206 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather

2218 Tue Feb 11 01:29:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2220 * Add check to configure, so that if ruserpass, or _ruserpass
2221 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
2223 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
2224 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
2227 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
2228 built-in FTP client in mhn.
2230 * Added configure check for ushort and ulong. Change code
2231 to use ushort/ulong rather than u_short/u_long.
2233 * A couple of small cleanups in locking code.
2235 * Added configure check for gmtoff element in struct tm.
2237 * Added configure check for tzset.

2241 * Released nmh-0.06.
2243 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
2244 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
2246 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
2247 many such machines around anymore.
2249 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
2250 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
2252 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
2253 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
2255 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2257 * Check lex generated file in zotnet/tws and use
2258 pre-generated version if necessary.
2260 * Released nmh-0.05.
2262 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
2263 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
2264 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
2265 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
2267 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
2268 be linked in one pass.
2270 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2272 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
2273 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
2275 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2277 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
2279 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2281 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
2282 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
2283 become the current folder.
2285 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2287 * Released nmh-0.04.
2289 * Define ospeed and PC in termsbr.c is OS doesn't have
2292 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2294 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
2295 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
2296 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
2298 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2300 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
2301 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
2303 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2305 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
2306 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
2309 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
2310 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
2312 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2314 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
2315 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
2316 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
2317 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
2318 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
2319 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
2321 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2323 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
2324 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
2326 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
2327 a file (currently need to specify full path).
2329 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2331 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
2332 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
2334 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2336 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
2337 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
2338 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
2340 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2342 * Released nmh-0.03.
2344 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
2345 .mh_sequence file existed.
2347 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
2348 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
2350 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
2351 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated

2359 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2361 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
2362 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
2363 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
2365 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2367 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
2368 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
2369 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
2371 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2373 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL
2374 and allocate its own buffer. Borrowed from zsh.
2376 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
2378 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2380 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
2381 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
2382 directory from where the source code is located.
2384 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2386 * Released nmh-0.02.
2388 Wed Jan 1 17:41:52 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

2393 Tue Dec 31 03:07:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2395 * Changed code to use strerror, rather than using sys_errlist
2396 and sys_nerr directly.
2398 Mon Dec 30 02:15:25 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2400 * -compat switch from install-mh removed.

2404 Sat Dec 28 13:25:05 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2406 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
2407 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
2408 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
2409 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
2410 rather than in script.
2412 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2414 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
2416 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with
2417 macro defined on Solaris.
2419 Thu Dec 26 02:50:15 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2421 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
2422 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
2424 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
2425 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
2426 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
2427 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
2430 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2432 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
2433 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.
2435 * Fixed configure test so that termcap variable ospeed is
2438 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2440 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
2442 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included
2443 in mhn.c. Changed md5 to use memset and memcpy.
2445 Fri Dec 20 02:29:37 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2447 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
2448 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
2450 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2452 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
2453 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
2454 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
2455 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
2456 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
2457 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
2459 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2461 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
2463 * Released nmh-0.01.
2465 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
2466 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
2467 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
2470 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2472 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
2475 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2477 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
2478 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
2480 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2482 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
2483 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
2484 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
2485 script to find_program.
2487 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2489 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
2490 speed up -recurse option.
2492 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
2493 yet, but it compiles :-)
2495 * Changed default location for install to
2496 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
2497 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
2498 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
2501 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
2502 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
2503 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
