1 2005-10-05 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
3 * Harald Geyer: h/mh.h, uip/replsbr.c: back out previous change
4 (fork/vfork) and replace with code that handles the issue directly
6 2005-05-18 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
8 * Debian Bug# 143485: Nick Rusnov: h/mh.h: use fork instead of
11 * Debian Bug# 261592: Harald Geyer: uip/mhlsbr.c, uip/replsbr.c:
12 test/report error writing to stdout
14 * mts/smtp/smtp.c, uip/popsbr.c: correct SASL include file locations
16 * docs/COMPLETION-BASH: bash completion definitions from Debian
18 * patch #2863: savannah@brisammon.fastmail.fm: sbr/folder_read.c:
19 fix a bug affecting AFS where nmh was setting the READONLY flag
20 for a folder even when you do have write access to the folder
22 * Carl Mummert: h/fmt_compile.h, man/mh-format.man,
23 sbr/fmt_compile.c, sbr/fmt_scan.c: add unquote() function for
24 removing quotes from RFC-2822 encoded headers
26 2005-02-23 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
28 * use iconv to convert RFC-2047 encoded headers to the
29 character set used by the current locale
31 * sbr/folder_read.c fix Debian bug #202667: crash when a
32 message's filename overflows an int when converted
34 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
35 versions (from automake 1.9.5)
37 2005-02-21 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
39 * sbr/getpass.c fix bug where inc crashed on failing to reopen
42 2005-01-27 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
44 * Added -proxy option to inc and msgchk. Based on old patch
45 from Michael Richardson.
47 * On systems where it is available, use nl_langinfo to get the
48 character set if MM_CHARSET is unset
50 2005-01-21 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
52 * sbr/check_charset.c US-ASCII is a subset of UTF-8 so can be
53 handled directly when UTF-8 is being used
55 2004-12-17 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
57 * uip/mhmisc.c Fix -part option to mhshow/mhlist/mhstore to
58 find sub-parts of the specified part
60 2004-11-19 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
62 * h/prototypes.h, sbr/folder_addmsg.c, uip/mhstoresbr.c,
63 uip/rcvstore.c, uip/refile.c: Added mail directory argument to
64 folder_addmsg in order to make it possible to provide a path to
65 the ext_hook call that is mailpath-based. A problem existed when
66 a folder was a symbolic link and the pwd call would return the
67 path relative to the filesystem, not to mailpath. A new argument
68 was needed because there was otherwise no reasonable way to get
71 2004-11-16 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
73 * sbr/folder_pack.c: Fixed problem where the refile hook was being
74 called after a message was renamed so that it wasn't around for
75 the hook. The hook is now called before the message file is
78 * sbr/folder_addmsg.c: Fixed wrong directory for hook when
79 refiling with -src option.
81 2004-10-15 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
83 * uip/sortm.c: Fixed calling of external hooks.
85 2004-10-12 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
87 * uip/inc.c: Fixed another weird bug caused by the static
88 mailpath being overwritten.
90 * uip/sendsbr.c: Fixed bug that caused anno to mangle headers.
92 * sbr/lock_file.c: Fixed strange bug that prevented a lock from
93 ever being obtained if getting it failed the first time. The
94 problem was that the string of XXXXXX that is required by
95 mkstemp() was overwritten the first time through, and so all
96 subsequent times failed because mkstemp() failed. The fix
97 reinitializes the tmp file string.
99 * uip/inc.c: Fixed bug in which the static maildir was overwritted
100 if a format string was read from the profile.
102 * sbr/folder_delmsgs.c: Fixed bug that was producing an incorrect
103 path for the external hook.
105 2003-10-06 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
107 * uip/slocal.c, configure.in: db configuration fix for Debian; yet
108 another location for ndbm.
110 2003-09-30 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
112 * Fix 'pick' so handling of options "-list" and "-seq" are
114 * Fix 'inc' realloc error when bringing in more than 100 msgs
116 * Patches submitted by Nick Rusnov from Debian archive applied:
119 136976 - Handle binary content messages
120 143427 - mh-format.man typo
121 144098 - 'spost; should have same behavior as 'post'
122 w.r.t. mts.conf masquerade line
123 149745 - slocal ignores 'N' result of previous command
124 152728 - increase SMTP timeouts to conform to RFC 1123
125 The timeouts suggested by the RFC seem long
126 to me - but the RFC is still listed as active.
127 181867 - typo for nmh.man
129 2003-08-10 Jeffrey C Honig <jch@honig.net>
131 * Fix problem where parsing of address/date fields in fmt_compile
132 is optimized to the first instance. The first instance may be in
133 contitional code which will result in cached data to
134 be used. Instead, convert c_flags to a flags field from a boolean
135 and parse on the first use.
136 * Remove some unused flag bits.
138 Fri Jul 01 22:02:00 2003 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
140 * Applied fixes for configuration problems with Solaris and
141 systems with gdbm instead of db1 (includes bug #2024)
143 #578 - repl leaks umask
144 #1393 - sortm core dumps
145 #1650 - msh leaks file descriptors
146 #1730 - Double free() in mhfree.c:free_encoding()
147 #3356 - In-Reply-To header in default replcomps should be
149 * Revised man page for mh-format (bug #2031)
150 * New replcomps, etc, with Fcc: +outbox in default versions
152 Sat Mar 17 03:18:15 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
154 * Ken Hornstein's configure.in Cyrus SASL checks were doing
155 `x"$with_cyrus_sasl" != "no"' instead of `... != x"no"'.
157 Tue Mar 06 21:04:27 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
159 * Found some historical information about MH in RFC 808.
160 Supplemented it with info from Jerry Peek's MH book and added it
161 to docs/README.about.
163 Tue Feb 6 20:35:40 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
165 * sbr/dtime.c Use the same Y2K correction code as dtimep.lex
167 * sbr/dtimep.lex Restrict the parser to accept either
168 a numerical timezone offset, or a symbolic one (e.g. EST),
169 but not both (Since "2000 -400 EDT" might cause a double
170 subtraction of 60 minutes if both are parsed. One should be
173 Mon Feb 05 20:22:54 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
175 * -L isn't sufficient for specifying the path of the Cyrus SASL
176 shared library. That'll allow us to link successfully, but on
177 many/most OSes that won't allow us to find libsasl at runtime. On
178 Solaris, we need to specify the library path with -R as well (or
179 else the user will have to use the $LD_LIBRARY_PATH kludge, which
180 is considered harmful). This fix should be extended to other OSes
183 * Print whether we have SASL support in the "nmh configuration"
184 summary configure prints out.
186 * Say in README.developers to use `\date' in case anyone is like
187 me and has `date' aliased in their shell to use a nonstandard (but
188 subjectively more readable) format.
190 Thu Jan 25 21:15:52 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
192 * man/mh-chart.man has updated synposes of
195 Tue Jan 23 20:26:15 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
197 * etc/digestcomps tried to force dates into a
198 19xx when it's not necessary.
200 Fri Jan 19 21:22:08 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
202 * First round of manpage updates finished. They
203 are standardized on -man macros, with minimal
206 * man/tmac.h.in is no longer needed, since the
207 manpages do not depend on them anymore. Note:
208 strict "man" programs that didn't allow ".so"
209 sourcing outside the man tree will now format
210 the man pages correctly.
212 * man/vmh.1 is no longer built, since uip/vmh isn't
214 Tue Jan 9 6:01:22 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
216 * Finished manpages ali-prev
218 * Removed deprecated files from the repository.
219 Specifically, those rooted in zotnet/ and mts/sendmail
220 mts/mmdf. "cvs update -dP" will give a pruned directory
223 * Updated docs/Makefile.in to include README.manpages, and
224 uip/Makefile.in to include popi.c (which isn't being built,
225 though). This allows "make nmhdist" to create an archive that
226 is file-for-file identical to the current cvs repository.
228 Sun Dec 31 20:48:50 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
230 * Create docs/README.manpages, which details
231 the formatting rules I've been using.
235 Sat Dec 30 9:50:13 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
237 * Created a new file "DATE" to hold the date
238 of the most recent nmh release. This date will be
239 used in the manpages.
241 * Updated docs/README.developers to add the step
242 of updating DATE. Also, updated configure to
243 read in the contents of the file as the variable
246 * Started work on updating man pages, with only
247 ali finished so far. Changes: 1) no dependence
248 on an external macro file, 2) uses only
249 -man macros (although I may be mistaken in this),
250 3) syntax in the SYNOPSIS is a little more
251 in line with standard UNIX documentation, such as
252 bold flags and italicized parameters.
254 Sun Dec 24 10:06:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
256 * Updated INSTALL with information about the
257 --with-locking option.
259 * Fixed the Hesiod tests in configure.in. In
260 systems where res_send was in -lresolv, this
261 information was not being communicated to the
262 HESIOD_LIBS var. Now, if res_send is not found
263 in the default libraries, it's assumed to be
264 in -lresolv, and thus -lresolv is appended to
265 HESIOD_LIBS, which will need that to avoid
266 undefined symbols problems.
268 * Fixed the Kerberos tests in configure.in. New
269 versions of Kerberos 5 have renamed -lcrypto
270 to -lk5crypto (circa krb5 1.1 or thereabouts). The
271 new test tries to determine if -lk5crypto exists. If so,
272 this is a new krb5 system. If not, test for -lcrypto
273 and the rest of old krb5. If that fails, look
274 for a genuine krb4 installation.
276 Fri Dec 22 22:08:51 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
278 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in msgchk.man.
279 -snoop was documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
281 Fri Dec 22 23:42:16 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
283 * Made a new ./configure option called
284 "--with-locking" that allows the file
285 locking mechanism to be chosen there instead of
286 requiring a manual edit of config.h.
288 * If the option is not explicitly set, or an
289 invalid option is specified, "dot" locking is
290 chosen. Valid options are "dot", "fcntl",
291 "flock", and "lockf". We need a way to tell
292 the user that these are the valid options, and
293 change the flag "--with-locking" if it's not
296 Fri Dec 22 19:21:29 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
298 * Remove the lex-specific memory hints at the
299 beginning of sbr/dtimep.lex. We've already
300 committed to supporting flex only, since
301 lex does not easily allow us to parse a single
302 string, as well as other problems documented
303 below and on nmh-workers.
305 * Added a switch statement to configure.in to
306 test for Mac OS X. If this is the case, LDFLAGS
307 should not contain "-s" since the linker rejects
310 * Updated MACHINES to include Mac OS X Public Beta,
311 as well as Linux 2.4 running glibc 2.2.
313 Wed Dec 20 16:00:46 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
315 * Marked deprecated directories in docs/README.developers
316 as deprecated, with pointers to the new code location.
317 Eventually these deprecated directories should go away.
319 Tue Dec 19 19:16:37 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
321 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in inc.man. -snoop was
322 documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
324 Thu Dec 14 14:32:09 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
326 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
327 versions on ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/config, dated
328 12-07-00. This should prevent configure from failing
329 on newer operating systems because config.{guess,sub}
330 couldn't correctly identify them.
332 Thu Dec 14 1:30:44 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
334 * Fixed the circular dependency created when I moved
335 zotnet/mts to mts/generic and merged them into libmts.
336 mts/generic/client.c and mts/generic/mts.c are now in sbr/
337 (and thus in libmh), which makes libmh self-contained and
338 not depending on an external archive.
340 * All include statements now look for mts.h in h/. The
341 Makefiles and configure script have been modified so that
342 mts/generic is no longer built.
344 Mon Dec 11 22:08:07 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
346 * When Shantonu made the new libmts.a, he swapped $(MTSLIB) and
347 libmh.a in sbr/Makefile.in so that libmh.a comes first, but this
348 causes the build to fail on Solaris, because libmts.a has to get
349 ruserpass() out of libmh.a. Swapping them back to the way Ken
350 Hornstein's patch (which I applied on Jul 20) put them, with
351 libmh.a correctly coming second. If there are times when libmts.a
352 needs to come second, then it would appear there's a circular
353 dependency and someone (Shantonu?) did an mts merge incorrectly.
355 Fri Sep 8 01:36:23 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
357 * Took out bad time textual time zones like BST and JST.
358 I found them online somewhere, but am not sure if they're
361 Fri Sep 8 00:36:48 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
363 * Moved zotnet/mts to mts/generic. This code reorganization
364 makes the entire zotnet tree deprecated -- bboards is unneeded,
365 mf was was moved to sbr, tws was rewritten and moved to sbr, and
368 * Created a new static library called libmts.a used during
369 compilation which includes the generic mts code and the
370 smtp/sendmail code. This supercedes the functionality of the
371 old libsmtp.a and the remains of libzot.a.
373 * Updated header includes to reference the new location of mts.h
374 in mts/generic/mts.h. Also, update the configure and top-level
375 Makefile not to descend into zotnet. Also, they don't descend
376 into mts/mmdf and mts/sendmail (the sendmail code has been
377 merged into the smtp code).
379 * Added #include <h/nmh.h> to h/md5.h, since my compile was
380 complaining about implicitly-declared memcpy and memset, which
381 appear to be in strings.h. In any event, nmh.h should take care
384 * When doing a "make nmhdist", notice that the generated
385 snapshot does not include zotnet of the mts directories as noted
386 above. Since they are no longer compiled, and I don't see any
387 obvious code path to get to them, end-users should probably
388 not need them. If you think otherwise, turn Makefile generation
389 back on in configure.in and turn on recursion into those dirs
390 in the appropriate Makefile.in
392 Wed Sep 6 22:40:03 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
394 * Tracked down the problem in the new dtimep where time
395 zones were being radically misreported. It was because the
396 parser knew about military time zones (such as M or E) but in
397 some cases did not know about the textual representation of
398 some zones (like MET). When it encountered one of these, the
399 date parser misread MET as the military time zone T (well, first
400 zone M, then E, and finally T). I took military zones out, and
401 things seem much better. Also, the default behavior of parsing
402 time zones appears to default to GMT in the absence of better
403 info, which is less bogus than assuming the mail came from the
404 current time zone, which was the behavior in 1.04.
406 Thu Aug 10 13:22:13 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
408 * Decided that limiting the message number columns to 3 on my
409 scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD (to try to regain space taken by
410 extra date info) was ill-conceived. It's not that tough to get
411 past 999 messages, though I imagine it's rather rare to exceed
412 9999. Changed these to 4. Also put the "replied / encrypted"
413 column back in YYYYMMDD -- I've never seen it show anything but a
414 space, but that space is useful if you use scan, grep, and awk
415 (with the default field separator) to grab message numbers (I know
416 -- pick should really be used for these purposes...).
418 Mon Aug 7 20:11:09 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
420 * Modify umask set by mhshow to enable user execute bit, so that
421 viewers that create temporary directories (e.g., lynx) will be
424 Thu Aug 03 17:14:08 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
426 * TODO: Allow multiple simultaneous differing contexts, probably
427 each tied to a parent (terminal) process.
429 Tue Aug 1 10:48:05 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
431 * Makefile install rules should not look for generated files in
432 the source tree -- this will happen to work when configuring and
433 building inside the source tree but will fail when using an
434 external build tree. Fixed etc/Makefile.in.
436 Mon Jul 24 16:20:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
438 * When Shantonu wrote the new, more portable dtimep.lex, he left
439 out the #ifdef DSTXXX stuff for some reason. Not a good idea, as
440 that code is required for proper printing of numeric-offset
441 timezones that have daylight saving time. Without that code,
442 -0700 during DST gets printed as MST instead of PDT.
444 * Renamed DSTXXX as ADJUST_NUMERIC_ONLY_TZ_OFFSETS_WRT_DST and
445 added an explanatory comment by its #definition.
447 * Updated README.developers with the fact that zotnet/tws is going away.
449 Thu Jul 20 20:30:52 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
451 * Moved Kimmo's new "--with-hash-backup" to be output with the
452 rest of the --with options in the configure --help output. Also,
453 people did not preserve my alphabetization of the --with options
454 when they added new ones. Re-alphabetized.
456 * One more pass at README.developers now that it's clear that my
457 previously-suggested one-line autoconf-file commit can cause
458 unnecessary local makes and an out-of-sync stamp-h.in file, but
459 would not cause problems for other people using the CVS files.
461 * Ken Hornstein's SASL patch was not integrated properly with
462 Ruud's new merged mts/sendmail code. Kimmo has since fixed nmh so
463 it compiles, but according to Ken, the SASL stuff still does not
464 work. Integrating a patch from him for this.
466 * Last pass at README.developers -- Kimmo's 5-step commit was
467 overkill. You only need 3 steps, since configure.in is the only
468 autoconf file with the RCS $Id keyword.
470 * Applied Kurt J. Lidl <lidl@eng.us.uu.net>'s $MAILHOST patch:
472 I have a small patch that would be nice to be included --
473 basically, it allows the usage of the "MAILHOST" environment
474 variable, without having to have HESIOD turned on. I need
475 this functionality for my environment, where we have identical
476 /usr/local on all my machines (so I cannot just hardcode into
477 the mts.conf file), and I have multiple POP mail servers for
480 Modified inc.man to reflect that along with "pophost:" and -host,
481 $MAILHOST can now activate POP mail inclusion as well.
483 * Fixed warnings from diff on first-time install of nmh. Also
484 added 'echo's clarifying the etc file installation activities.
486 Tue Jul 18 19:36:59 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
488 * Added the answer to Dan's question in README.developers.
490 Mon Jul 17 19:10:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
492 * Clarified and made some corrections to Kimmo's README.developers
493 changes (BTW, if anyone can explain why the RCS Ids are able to cause
494 problems with the dependencies, please fill in the explanation --
495 I never encountered a problem with the old single-commit method).
497 Sat Jul 15 23:13:49 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
499 * Add configure option --with-hash-backup so the backup prefix can
500 be easily changed from "," to "#".
502 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that it works with any make.
504 * Use mkstemp in sbr/lock_file.c.
506 * Commits of autoconf-related files apparently can't all be done
507 in one shot due to RCS Ids changing when committing -- updated
510 Tue Jul 11 14:18:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
512 * Clarified post.man and send.man for those not completely up on
513 SASL terminology. "SASL encryption layers are not supported for
514 SMTP" means that encryption is supported for the authentication
515 but not for the subsequent data stream.
517 Sat Jul 8 01:36:19 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
519 * Applied Ken Hornstein <kenh@cmf.nrl.navy.mil>'s patches
520 implementing SASL support for POP3 and SMTP. If nmh is compiled
521 with SASL support, using the -sasl switch on the inc, msgchk,
522 post, and send commands will enable authentication encryption for
523 SMTP, and both authentication and data stream encryption for POP3.
525 Sat Jun 10 18:37:59 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
527 * Merged mts/sendmail functionality into mts/smtp; switching between
528 smtp and sendmail delivery method is now controlled by mts.conf.
530 * If tsort cannot deal with loops, in addition to defining tsort as
531 cat, also define lorder as echo.
533 * Removed uip/popi.c from list of sources.
535 Thu Jun 08 19:36:57 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
537 * New dtimep.lex didn't parse day names properly. Fixed. Also
538 clarified ambiguous comments preceding day_map[] array (from old
539 dtimep.lex) that probably led to the erroneous cp++ being added.
541 Wed Jun 7 20:52:33 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
543 * Added one more mkstemp invocation to uip/spost.c (which was in a
546 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to clean up permissions handling
547 and error handling in uip/inc.c.
549 Mon Jun 5 22:10:07 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
551 * Use cat instead of tsort if tsort cannot deal with loops in its
552 input (which is the case for tsort from GNU textutils).
554 Mon Jun 5 21:14:36 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
556 * If lockfile is present, and its dotlockfile program is setgid,
557 inc does not need to be setgid.
559 Sun Jun 4 21:35:40 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
561 * Added autoconf test for Miquel van Smoorenburg's liblockfile
562 library, as found on Debian systems.
564 * Added liblockfile support to sbr/lock_file.c.
566 Wed May 31 7:19:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
568 * Fixed up dtimep.lex a bit. Added back memory options for AIX to
569 increase available memory. Took out %option noyywrap, which
570 wasn't understood by AT&T lex, as well as the -i
571 case-insensitivity flag.
573 Wed May 31 07:40:45 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
575 * Added a lint target to the Makefiles and a check in autoconf
576 to determine whether lint or lclint exists on the system.
578 Fri May 30 19:21:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
580 * etc/Makefile.in was incorrectly installing mts.conf.in and
581 sendfiles.in -- fixed. Generated sendfiles script was not a
582 dependency of the `all' target, and was incorrectly included in
583 the distribution. Changed the suffix for the backed-up previous
584 versions of the etc files from the ambiguous .old to .prev. Added
585 call to diff -- only keep the .prev files around if different from
586 the newly-installed versions (intentionally didn't redirect output
587 to /dev/null so you'll notice when your changed versions are
588 getting moved aside).
590 * INSTALL never documented the etc/*.old thing. Documented the
591 new etc/*.prev thing (including a note to watch for diff output).
593 * Applied Alec Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu>'s dropsbr.c patch:
595 In the map_write routine, a call is made to map_open and this
596 call is supposed to set the "clear" variable to 0 or 1,
597 depending on whether the map file is empty or not. In
598 mh6.8.3, this worked because map_open would set "clear" by
599 calling the mbx_Xopen routine. In nmh, the code for mbx_Xopen
600 was merged into mbx_open, but the interface for mbx_open
601 doesn't support the clear variable, so that functionality was
602 lost. The map_open interface still contains "int *clear" in
603 the prototype, but never sets it.
605 My patch eliminates "clear" from the map_open interface (I
606 checked to make sure that map_write is the only client of
607 map_open). Furthermore, my patch also sets the "clear"
608 variable properly at the beginning of map_write by calling
609 fstat(). This eliminates the bug in that the value of "clear"
610 being used later in the routine was just stack garbage.
612 Having a bad value of clear causes this next bug to be
613 triggered: The fp file pointer was being opened with fdopen,
614 but in two of the three switch cases it wasn't being closed.
615 In certain cases, this was causing packf to run out of file
616 descriptors if you attempted to pack a large folder.
618 Mon May 29 7:48:15 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
620 * Moved the date parsing routines from zotnet/tws to sbr/ (and
621 tws.h to h/). Updated all source files to reflect to new location
624 * Rewrote dparsetime (in dtimep.lex -> dtimep.c) to replace the
625 old zotnet/tws/dtimep.c, dtimep.lex, lexstring.c, lexedit.c, and
626 dtimep.c-lexed. It should now work with flex (although untested
627 with lex), and requires no sed-ing. For now, I have the lexed
628 version in the distribution, so that end-users don't need to worry
629 about running it through flex/lex. I have not added back support
630 for guessing the time zone when it's not specified.
632 Sun May 28 17:44:15 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
634 * Added autoconf check for getutent().
636 * Changed uip/rcvtty.c and uip/slocal.c to use getutent() and
637 friends. Since I can only check on Linux, please check if
638 this works on other systems.
640 Sun May 28 14:58:49 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
642 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to uip/scansbr.c for more
643 checks for write failures.
645 * Unlink temporary file properly in uip/rcvtty.c.
647 * Moved viamail from bindir to libdir.
649 * Changed sendfiles into sendfiles.in, so that path to viamail
652 * Added gzip support to sendfiles.
654 * Added References header to replcomps and replgroupcomps.
656 Sun May 28 14:39:31 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
658 * Fixed m_getfld bug which caused segmentation faults when
659 incorporating messages which ended in multiple linefeeds crossing
662 Fri May 26 13:21:59 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
664 * msh has been unable to show MIME messages ever since 1.0. Alec
665 Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu> tracked down the problem to the
666 -show flag being passed to mhshow. mhshow is equivalent to the
667 old mhn -show, so we don't need the -show anymore. Removed it.
669 Fri May 12 02:51:21 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
671 * zotnet/bboards is not longer built by default. Goal is to move
672 the assorted functions in zotnet into sbr or some more logical
675 * Moved zotnet/mf to sbr, and changed mf.h references accordingly,
676 as well as Makefiles.
678 Thu May 11 02:21:34 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
680 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that both SRCS and OBJS aren't
681 seperately and redundantly defined, but so that OBJS is a
682 pattern-substituted version of SRCS with suffix .c -> .o. This
683 should make maintainability easier.
685 * Added section to MACHINES indicating what platforms nmh is known
686 to compile and work on, just to give users peace of mind, or
687 something. This is by no means complete or exhaustive, so add
688 whatever you know works.
690 Tue May 09 20:38:04 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
692 * Alphabetized Shantonu's $pop_kinds output on configure's "pop is
693 enabled" line. If POP3 is the only kind of POP enabled, say so,
694 rather than just saying "yes" (which is ambiguous).
696 * Fixed four warnings in Shantonu's new getpass.c. Needed to
697 #include <stdlib.h> for calloc(), <unistd.h> for ttyname(), and
698 "h/mh.h" for adios(). Also changed ch from char to int to get rid
699 of "comparison is always 1 due to limited range of data type" on EOF.
701 * Added steps to README.developers saying to change the version
702 number to X.Y.Z+dev. Did a little rearranging and changed the FTP
703 dir from /home/ftp to /var/ftp to reflect Doug's new machine.
705 * Changed configure.in to use gcc -Wall even without
706 --enable-debug, to prevent developers compiling optimized from
707 introducing warnings, and to give end-users a warm, fuzzy feeling
708 as they (hopefully) see no warnings come out (except perhaps on
709 the lex output file) even with -Wall.
711 * Renamed getpass() to nmh_getpass() since the prototype for
712 getpass() varies from OS to OS, and we want to _always_ use our
713 version of the function. Fixed all the callers to use
714 nmh_getpass() and added it to prototypes.h. Semi-arbitrarily
715 upped MAX_PASSWORD_LEN from 128 to 256. buf was being calloc()'d
716 and the memory leaked -- should have just been declared as static
717 char array. Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the
718 copyright message, as this version has been changed significantly
719 from the BSD version.
721 * Added "nmh-local functions to use in preference to OS versions"
722 section to README.developers (currently just says to use
723 nmh_getpass() instead of system getpass()).
725 * Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the copyright message
728 * Added mts.conf.5 page per Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s
731 This happens on solaris:
734 windex entry incorrect: mts.conf(5) not found.
735 No manual entry for mts.conf.
739 % echo ".so man5/mh-tailor.5" > mts.conf.5
741 done in the man5 directory. We need to add 'mts.conf.5' as a
742 reference sourcing mh-tailor.5.
744 Mon May 08 23:51:55 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
746 * Doug informed me that the way I had restored the "lost" version
747 histories was wrong, because `cvs checkout's of old versions of
748 nmh wouldn't work properly. It occurs to me that this could be
749 fixed by simply deleting those tags in the new-location *,v files,
750 but oh well. I'm putting everything back to the way Doug
751 originally had it. To get the old version history for a file that
752 used to be in the top directory, you'll need to "blindly" do a
753 `cvs log' there (even though you won't have a local copy of the
754 file in that directory). `cvs diff' will no longer be able to
755 diff pre-move versions vs. post-move versions -- you'll have to do
756 a lot of manual gyrations with `cvs checkout' and then use `diff'.
758 * I had alphabetized the --configure options in the --help output
759 awhile back, but Shantonu added --enable-apop just under
760 --enable-pop. Put it in alphabetical order and clarified what
761 --enable-apop does vs. --enable-pop and --with-krb4. Also changed
762 --with-mts help line from "mail transport agent" to "mail
763 transport agent/service" so the 's' in "mts" doesn't seem to come
766 * Added two steps to "releasing nmh" in README.developers. After
767 making the tarball, it's a good idea to diff the tree vs. the CVS
768 tree to make sure no files got left out, and then to chown the
769 files so that they're owned by root, preventing a Trojaning attack
770 by a malicious remote user with a UID matching yours.
772 * Changed DIFFERENCES to say that RPOP is not currently supported
773 rather than implying it by saying that APOP, KPOP, and POP[3] are.
775 Sun May 07 18:16:43 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
777 * Imported NetBSD version of getpass() and made extensive
778 revisions for compatibility with programs that pipe the password
779 to stdin, such as exmh.
781 * Removed tests for system ruserpass() which sometimes gave
782 phantom positive results. Also, bext to use internal functions if
783 we ever want to change .netrc format to something else, or access
786 Sat May 06 08:28:09 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
788 * Restored lost version histories for those moved files by doing a
789 manual `mv' in the CVSROOT on mhost. CVS badly needs a `cvs mv'
790 command so that you can move files (without having physical access
791 to the CVSROOT) without losing versioning. Put MACHINES back at
792 the top level as it needs to be read before building. Fixed DIST
793 variable in {.,docs}/Makefile.in to reflect that and to add
794 missing entry for "INSTALL" file.
796 Sat May 06 13:13:07 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
798 * Re-cleaned up nmh documentation (by moving things to docs
799 subdir) and modified Makefile & configure.in to handle the change.
801 Mon Apr 17 21:28:40 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
803 * Scott Blachowicz pointed out that the configure --help output
804 for --enable-masquerade was misleading. Clarified.
806 Mon Apr 17 19:01:00 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
808 * APOP support can be compiled in to inc and msgchk using
811 * To access an APOP host, specify -apop on the command line
812 along with any -host or -user option.
814 Fri Apr 14 23:10:44 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
816 * Upped the version number to 1.0.4+dev until the next nmh release.
818 * Added a "releasing nmh" section to README.developers, while the
819 process was fresh in my mind.
821 Fri Apr 14 18:21:34 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
823 * Added new files README.developers, ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6, and
824 ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html to DIST target in Makefile.in.
826 * Released nmh-1.0.4.
828 Tue Apr 11 21:37:03 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
830 * Applied Brian Campbell <bacam@tardis.ed.ac.uk>'s mhn.defaults.sh
833 It appears that there shouldn't be quotes around the %s in the
834 iso-8859-1 charset entry; xterm passes the remaining arguments
835 to the program, quoting them means that xterm thinks they're
836 part of the program's name.
838 This %s isn't the same as the "Insert content subtype" one from
839 mhshow-show-* -- it doesn't come from MIME headers and is safe not
842 Sun Apr 09 13:03:59 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
844 * added check in fmt_compile() to handle a single-character
845 format string. fmt_compile() depends on having an array of
846 format characters with an empty item at the end. A
847 single-character format would cause programs using this
848 function to segfault because the algorithm used to decide on
849 the length of the array mistakenly created a single-item array
850 when the format string was one character. This eventually
851 caused problems when the program attempted to test item+1
854 Thu Apr 06 21:53:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
856 * Richard Coleman threw out a lot of old MH-specific files in nmh.
857 Much of the stuff, indeed, is not worth saving, but there are
858 nuggets that are very worthwhile, and should probably be added
859 back in. Most important, IMHO, are the MH change logs, as they
860 can help answer questions like "Why is this code like this?" or
861 "How long has this been broken?" or "What was this ever used for?"
863 I've added a new file to the nmh tree called
864 ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6. It's cobbled together from the
865 mh-6.8.4/papers/mh*/MHCHANGES files. I've re-ordered the entries
866 to go from newest at the top to oldest at the bottom to match the
867 ChangeLog convention. Unfortunately there are no change logs for
868 versions of MH prior to 3 in the MH tar files available at
869 <ftp://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/mh>. Also, it appears to me that there
870 are MH-6.6 changes that aren't documented in the logs.
872 I've also added ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html. This is
873 based on mh-6.8.4/papers/changes/mh-changes.ms. The nroff format
874 and its "catman"-type output are a pain to deal with, but I was
875 loath to throw away the formatting, so I converted the file to
876 HTML. The only actual markup in the body are the "<B>" and "<U>"
877 tags, and "<" and ">" instead of '<' and '>', so it's quite
878 doable to view the file in plain ASCII mode as well. Note that
879 some of the changes this file documents as having been made in
880 MH-6.8.4 may not be present in nmh -- Richard started with 6.8.3
881 and later put in certain 6.8.4 stuff.
883 Wed Apr 05 21:09:28 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
885 * Applied Eric Schnoebelen <eric@cirr.com>'s mhshowsbr.c patch
886 fixing apparent bugs in Dan Winship's new security quoting code:
888 Since upgrading, I've been getting the following errors
889 while attempting to process some MIME messages:
891 (1) Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
896 (2) line 1/10 (END)Segmentation fault (core dumped)
898 (2) appears to be due to the testing of an unset pointer in
899 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux(). (1) appears to be caused by
900 mis-quoting a filename being handed to the shell in
901 mhshowsbr.c:show_content_aux().
903 Resolving the pointer reference issue in
904 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux() turned up a similar mis-quoting
905 problem in the routine.
907 Tue Mar 28 16:17:39 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
909 * Applied Todd.Miller@courtesan.com's patch to dropsbr.c to
910 prevent core dumping on packf. Here's the note from his message:
912 Since sizeof(buffer) == sizeof(tmpbuffer) packf will dump
913 core on a file w/o a From line with a line >= BUFSIZ.
914 I noticed this because I had a junk file in my mail
917 Fri Mar 17 11:59:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
919 * wesley.craig@umich.edu did not document his previous KPOP patch,
920 so I did so, and asked him to check what I wrote. Unfortunately
921 he didn't notice my misunderstanding of his patch. I wrote that
922 if you #define POPSERVICE "kpop", inc and msgchk will use KPOP
923 exclusively, but if you leave it as "pop3", you can use Wesley's
924 new -kpop switch on a given invocation. Instead, however, -kpop
925 turned out to be necessary on every invocation, and a KPOP user
926 complained. Applied Wesley's new patch, which makes things work
927 like I thought his original patch did. After that, did one more
928 clarifying pass to the documentation in inc.man and msgchk.man.
930 Wed Mar 15 18:45:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
932 * When I fixed the long-standing makedir() bugs in January, I had
933 the code call strtoul(..., 0), which I believed to be safe as all
934 modes specified as ASCII constants in the nmh code started with a
935 leading zero (signifying octal), which I did as it would work if
936 internal constants were ever changed to hex. Unfortunately I was
937 unaware of the "Folder-Protect:" .mh_profile entry, which
938 mh-profile.man documents as an octal-only constant, with no
939 leading zero required. I've changed the strtoul() call to an
940 atooi() call and removed the misleading leading zeroes on the
941 ASCII octal constants in the code and man pages. Also changed the
942 "Folder-Protect:" example in the man page to something more
943 interesting than a duplication of the default.
945 * When I added my --enable-masquerade option, you'll note that I
946 didn't make it --enable-nmh-masquerade. I find the --enable-nmh-*
947 options too wordy and I'm not sure why Richard went that route.
948 I've renamed them to just --enable-*, but the old versions will
949 still work as well (they just aren't advertised).
951 * Added a line to the "nmh configuration" output saying whether
954 * Added a new README.developers file. From the file:
956 This file is intended to provide a few tips for anyone doing
957 development on nmh. Developers who learn things "the hard
958 way" about the nmh codebase (as opposed to local info best
959 encoded in a comment) are encouraged to share their wisdom
962 Currently the topics are "autoconf files" and "directory structure".
964 Tue Mar 14 12:41:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
966 * Applied, after some finessing,
967 Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s --with-smtpservers patch:
969 Here's a patch that allows you to add
971 --with-smtpservers=<some.host.name>
973 to the ./configure command line to set the "servers: " line in
974 etc/mts.conf. Around here, we use "mailhost" so that all
975 machines in the current domain just talk to a central machine
976 and nothing else runs an MTA. Now, I can use
978 --with-smtpservers=mailhost
980 instead of having to remember to fix this by hand (and often
981 forgetting to do so!).
983 * Inspired by Simon's patch, added an --enable-masquerade option
984 to configure. It will set the "masquerade:" line of mts.conf.
985 You may specify a subset of the three types of masquerading, like
986 --enable-masquerade="draft_from mmailid", or leave off explicit
987 arguments to enable all three types.
989 * Alphabetized the --enable and --with options in configure.in and
990 INSTALL and added documentation of the two new options to the latter.
992 * Added new dependency for mts.conf: Makefile. If this isn't
993 done, then when you reconfigure nmh with new values for
994 --enable-masquerade or --with-smtpservers, you'll fail to get an
995 updated copy of mts.conf.
997 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtimep.lex patch:
999 It seems that some MUA's didn't handle y2k very well - ELM
1000 seems to be one of them, and Ultrix's DXmail (based on MH!).
1001 I've got a few emails this month that look like:
1003 575 Jan 00 Xxxxxx Xxxx 3603 ...
1005 22+ Jan 00 Xxx Xxxxx 1771 ...
1007 The first has "15 Jan 100" as the date and the second has
1008 "19 Jan 00" as the date. The following works around this so
1009 that scan, show, sortm, etc work ok.
1011 I put Simon's patch under the control of a new #define called
1012 FIX_NON_Y2K_COMPLIANT_MUA_DATES. There's some commentary in
1013 acconfig.h about when you might not want to #define it.
1015 * Created new dtimep.c-lexed with Simon's change using dtimep.lex
1016 lexed on Solaris 2.6. Added missing dependency in
1017 zotnet/tws/Makefile.in for dtimep.c: dtimep.c-lexed.
1019 * Added scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD format files.
1021 Mon Mar 13 21:32:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1023 * Applied Sullivan N. Beck <sbeck@cise.ufl.edu>'s mhshow-suffix patch:
1025 With the patch below, you can add lines like:
1027 mhshow-suffix-application/msword: .doc
1028 mhshow-suffix-application/PostScript: .ps
1030 to the mhn.defaults file to append the given suffix to a
1031 scratch file. This allows applications which require a
1032 certain suffix to run properly.
1034 * Removed -force_html from lynx entry in mhn.defaults.sh (I
1035 believe older versions of lynx lack that option) and added
1036 "mhshow-suffix-text/html: .html".
1038 * Modified username_extension masquerading to only use the
1039 extended address on generated [Resent-]From: lines and SMTP
1040 envelope From:. With Neil's original implementation, nmh's global
1041 idea of the username was changed, which would result in inc lying
1042 and saying you had no new mail because it was looking for a
1043 mailbox called, for instance, "dan-nmh" (where username was "dan"
1044 and $USERNAME_EXTENSION was "-nmh").
1046 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtime.c patch:
1048 There's a wrap-around problem that affects the implementation
1049 of Zeller's congruence in dtime.c. This causes the day-of-week
1050 calculations to fail for dates after Feb 29, 2000 (probably up
1051 until some year far in the future).
1053 Mon Mar 06 12:20:20 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1055 * Applied Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s msh.c patch:
1057 I finally tracked down the problem in msh that was causing
1058 errors whenever I tried to examine a 'mmdf' style mailbox.
1060 It turns out that not enough memory was being allocated with
1061 calloc(), causing memory pointers to be overwritten and
1064 Fri Mar 03 16:07:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1066 * Changed the new "plussed_user" option to mts.conf's
1067 "masquerade:" to "username_extension" after getting feedback from
1068 qmail users, who use '-' as a separator rather than '+'. Removed
1069 checking of $USERPLUS variable. Now check $USERNAME_EXTENSION,
1070 which needs to include the appropriate separator for your MTA
1071 ('-', '+', or whatever) as its first character.
1073 Thu Mar 02 23:04:30 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1075 * Added a new "boolean" type to mh.h and TRUE and FALSE constants.
1077 * Added a note to DIFFERENCES stating that it's out-of-date
1078 (Richard was the last one to update it) and that we should
1079 consider only documenting incompatibilities with MH there.
1081 * Implemented (and documented) a third kind of username
1082 masquerading: "plussed user" masquerading. This one was suggested
1083 by Neil Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>. It's based on sendmail's
1084 "plussed user" feature, where mail sent to <user>+<string> will be
1085 delivered to <user>. When it's enabled, it's controlled by the
1086 $USERPLUS environment variable. How is it enabled? Well, that
1089 * Renamed the "mmailid:" setting in mts.conf to "masquerade:", and
1090 changed it so that rather than being a boolean, it can be set to
1091 any combination of the three values "draft_from", "mmailid", and
1092 "plussed_user". Thus it is now possible to enable the three types
1093 of masquerading individually.
1095 * Fixed a bug with "mmailid" masquerading (dating back to MH?)
1096 where if it was turned on, ','s would no longer be considered
1097 GECOS field delimiters.
1099 Wed Mar 01 23:30:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1101 * Changed the GECOS-field '&' translation behavior to be
1102 controlled by the BSD42 #define rather than GCOS_HACK, since it's
1103 apparently always appropriate on OSes where BSD42 is #defined, and
1104 never appropriate on any other OSes. Thanks to Kimmo Suominen for
1105 responding to my "What is this code here for?" comment in mts.c
1106 and explaining the feature.
1108 Mon Feb 28 21:50:29 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1110 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3+dev (ideally this should be
1111 done by whoever makes a release tar file, immediately after doing
1114 * Applied Paul Fox <pgf-spam@foxharp.boston.ma.us>'s scansbr.c
1115 patch, posted to comp.mail.mh, which he says prevents loss of mail
1116 when inc'ing into a full filesystem.
1118 * Changed "echo > stamp-h.in" in Makefile.in to "date > stamp-h.in"
1119 so that stamp-h.in will be different each time configure.in and
1120 related files are changed, making it easier to check it in (which
1121 is necessary to prevent unnecessary autoconf calls).
1123 * My declaration of initgroups() in slocal.c to eliminate the "no
1124 prototype" warning wasn't portable (FreeBSD 3.[23] choked). Now
1125 use AC_EGREP_HEADER to see where initgroups() is declared, if
1128 Sun Feb 20 12:17:15 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1130 * Fix security hole in mhshowsbr.c which allowed untrusted shell
1131 code to be executed.
1133 * Released nmh 1.0.3.
1135 Thu Feb 10 10:54:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1137 * Oops. %-escapes on mhstore lines in mhn.defaults.sh should not
1138 be surrounded by single quotes, as a shell is not spawned when
1139 just saving files, and the filenames will end up with literal
1140 quotes embedded in them.
1142 Fri Feb 04 12:29:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1144 * Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
1145 got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
1146 the -help output. One theory is that they were making reference
1147 to the fact that clearly you know about the -help option since
1148 you're currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea
1149 to overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
1150 supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
1153 The other theory is that because you can say something like
1154 "mhstore -" and get "mhstore: - ambiguous. It matches" followed
1155 by the same list of switches you get with -help, they were saying
1156 you can "sorta" abbreviate "-help" as "-". You don't get the
1157 "Usage:" string, though, so it's not really the same thing.
1159 Thu Feb 03 17:52:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1161 * Applied wesley.craig@umich.edu's KPOP patches. According to him:
1163 The following patch fixes a problem with requesting a
1164 service key for a machine that has multiple 'A' records. It
1165 also makes "-kpop" a command line option, for users who
1166 would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".
1168 Did no testing of the new features, as I don't have access to a
1171 * Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
1173 * Modified INSTALL and config.h.in to reflect the new -kpop feature.
1175 Fri Jan 28 17:39:24 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1177 * All %-escapes in mhn.defaults that actually expand to something
1178 should be surrounded by single quotes. Added quotes to the ones
1179 in mhn.defaults.sh that were missing them.
1181 * Added check for lynx to write mhshow-show-text/html line in
1184 Thu Jan 27 12:22:25 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1186 * makedir() had multiple bugs dating back to MH. An octal
1187 constant was apparently being interpreted as decimal, resulting in
1188 directories with no user read or execute permissions, making
1189 nested directory creation fail. And there wasn't even an
1190 _attempt_ to set desired permissions (e.g. from "Folder-Protect:"
1191 in .mh_profile) on the outer directories of a nested directory.
1193 * A second `make install' would always fail because the check for
1194 whether mh_profile.5 existed was written incorrectly.
1196 Wed Jan 26 02:22:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1198 * Added documentation on both types of masquerading to post's man
1201 Tue Jan 25 22:58:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1203 * Doug's portability fix of my setgid inc autodetection had a
1204 caching bug -- if you re-ran configure, uip/Makefile would be
1205 corrupted, and installation would bomb out on OSes where inc needs
1208 * Implemented a new kind of email address masquerading. Usually,
1209 when a user writes a custom "From:" header in a draft, nmh uses it
1210 rather than generating one. However, the user's true address is
1211 used in the SMTP envelope "From:" and is revealed in the "Sender:"
1212 header. Now, when mmailid is set to non-zero, the envelope
1213 "From:" uses the address specified in the draft "From:" header,
1214 and there is no "Sender:" header. This is useful when sending on
1215 behalf of a remote POP3 account or when remote mail robots
1216 incorrectly use the envelope "From:" in preference to the body
1217 "From:". This processing has only been implemented for post, not
1218 for the undocumented spost (which was already missing some "From:"
1219 processing that post has).
1221 Mon Jan 24 22:26:06 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1223 * Got rid of the rest of the gcc -Wall warnings that I didn't have
1224 time for on 1999-07-15 (and, it would seem, some new ones people
1225 introduced since then). The primary ones were the warnings that
1226 default prototypes were being used for [v]snprintf() and
1227 str[n]casecmp(). As of right now, there are _no_ compilation
1228 warnings except on dtimep.c-lexed (at least under AIX 4.1.5 and
1231 Sun Jan 2 23:42:18 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1233 * Move mhtest from bindir to libdir.
1235 * Move sendfiles from libdir to bindir.
1237 * Updated sendfiles manpage to reflect this change.
1239 * Added documentation for -build and -file switches to repl and
1240 forw manpages (patch from Peter Maydell).
1242 * Fixed interaction between specifying -cc in profile and -group on
1245 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1247 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
1248 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
1249 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
1252 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1254 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
1255 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
1256 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
1257 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
1258 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
1259 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).
1261 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1263 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
1265 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1267 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
1268 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
1269 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
1270 caught again. This works for now.
1272 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
1274 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1276 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
1277 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
1279 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1281 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
1282 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
1284 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
1286 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
1288 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1290 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
1291 changes. Both need more cleanup.
1293 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1295 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
1296 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
1297 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
1298 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
1299 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
1302 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1304 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
1305 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
1306 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
1308 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
1309 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
1312 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1314 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
1315 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
1316 to a directory on another device with more free space.
1318 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1320 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
1321 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
1323 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1325 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
1328 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
1329 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
1331 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
1332 macros, regardless of platform.
1334 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
1335 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1337 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
1338 with x-conversions=gzip.
1340 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1342 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
1345 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
1346 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
1347 implicit definition of ioctl().
1349 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
1350 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
1351 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
1352 want to mess with them.
1354 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1356 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
1357 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
1359 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
1360 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
1362 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
1363 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
1364 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
1366 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
1367 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
1368 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
1370 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
1371 function initgroups.
1373 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
1376 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
1377 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
1380 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
1381 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
1384 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
1385 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
1389 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1391 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
1392 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
1393 preventing compilation on at least linux.
1395 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
1396 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
1398 Thu Sep 09 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1400 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
1402 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
1403 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
1404 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
1405 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
1407 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
1408 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
1410 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1412 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
1414 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1416 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
1417 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
1419 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1421 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
1422 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
1424 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
1425 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
1426 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
1427 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
1429 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
1430 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
1432 Sat Jun 09 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1434 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
1435 substitute it for mktemp if available.
1437 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1439 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
1440 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
1443 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
1445 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
1447 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
1449 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
1450 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
1452 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
1453 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
1454 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
1456 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
1457 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
1458 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
1460 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
1461 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
1462 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1464 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
1465 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
1468 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
1469 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1471 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
1472 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1474 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
1475 <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1477 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
1478 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
1479 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1481 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
1482 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1484 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
1485 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
1486 <elleron@servtech.com>.
1488 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
1489 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
1492 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
1493 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
1495 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
1496 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
1497 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
1498 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
1500 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
1501 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
1503 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1507 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
1508 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
1509 would not be changed.
1511 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
1512 one from the Apache web server.
1514 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
1515 (this should have been done a long time ago).
1517 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
1518 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
1519 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
1521 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
1523 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
1525 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
1526 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
1529 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
1530 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
1531 removes a bad race condition.
1533 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
1536 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
1537 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
1538 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
1540 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
1541 sequence information.
1543 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
1544 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
1546 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
1549 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
1552 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
1554 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
1555 interpret 034 as octal.
1557 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
1559 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
1560 mhstore, and mhbuild.
1562 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
1563 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
1565 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
1566 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
1568 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
1569 in the c_cefile structure when building.
1571 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
1572 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
1574 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
1575 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
1576 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
1578 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
1579 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
1580 and mhshow. Updated man pages
1582 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
1584 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
1586 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
1587 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
1590 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
1592 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
1593 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
1595 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
1596 header field information.
1598 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
1599 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
1601 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
1602 values when parsing a content.
1604 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
1605 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
1607 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
1608 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
1610 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
1611 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1613 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
1614 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
1616 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
1618 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
1620 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
1622 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
1624 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
1625 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
1628 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
1629 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
1631 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
1632 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
1633 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
1634 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
1635 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
1636 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
1639 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1641 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
1642 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
1643 buffer length checks for this parameter.
1645 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
1646 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
1648 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1650 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
1651 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
1652 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
1653 of the limits on the length of command lines.
1655 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
1656 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
1659 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
1660 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
1661 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
1662 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
1665 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1667 * Released nmh-0.27.
1669 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
1670 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
1672 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
1673 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
1674 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
1675 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
1678 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
1679 mhbuild returns an error.
1681 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
1682 rename the draft file.
1684 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
1685 use a global variable.
1687 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
1688 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
1690 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
1691 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
1693 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
1694 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
1695 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
1697 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
1698 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
1700 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
1701 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
1704 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
1705 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
1708 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
1709 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
1711 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
1712 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
1713 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
1715 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
1716 to new function output_content_folder.
1718 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
1719 new function output_content_file.
1721 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
1722 to new function parse_format_string.
1724 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
1725 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
1726 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
1727 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
1729 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
1730 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
1731 message/external file from ftp.
1733 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
1734 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
1735 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
1737 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
1738 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
1741 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
1744 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
1745 new file mhstoresbr.c
1747 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
1750 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
1751 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
1753 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
1754 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
1756 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
1757 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
1758 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
1760 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
1762 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
1764 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
1765 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
1768 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
1769 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
1771 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
1774 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
1776 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1778 * Released nmh-0.26.
1780 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
1781 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
1782 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
1783 is still the same (dashstuffing).
1785 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
1786 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
1787 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
1788 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
1789 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
1791 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
1792 But it is not on by default.
1794 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
1795 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
1797 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
1799 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
1801 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
1803 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
1805 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
1806 number of the "cur" message when packing.
1808 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1810 * Released nmh-0.25.
1812 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
1813 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
1814 uses the original name of the library.
1816 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
1817 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
1820 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
1821 list_content and list_debug.
1823 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
1825 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
1826 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.
1828 1998-02-27 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1830 * Released nmh-0.24.
1832 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
1834 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
1835 are given, that order doesn't matter.
1837 * Fix bug in seq_list.c when realloc'ing for
1838 large sequence line.
1840 1998-02-23 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1842 * Released nmh-0.23.
1844 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
1846 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
1847 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan
1848 content, decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary
1849 string). I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
1851 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
1852 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
1855 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
1857 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
1859 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
1861 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
1862 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
1864 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
1865 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.
1867 * Add note to MACHINES file that on Linux, configure
1868 doesn't find the functions sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
1870 * Fix configuration for machines that don't have (or find)
1871 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
1873 1998-02-11 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1875 * Released nmh-0.22.
1877 * Add a configure check for sigsetjmp. Add some conditional
1878 #define's in h/signals.h in case it's not found.
1880 * Added additional notes about -auto switch in mhn man page.
1882 * Added note about MM_CHARSET environment variable to
1883 mh-profile(5) man page.
1885 * Fix signal problem in mhn.c (change setjmp/longjmp to
1886 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp).
1888 1998-02-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1890 * Released nmh-0.22-pre1.
1892 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
1893 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
1895 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
1897 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
1898 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
1899 entry point for parsing MIME files.
1901 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
1902 source message on the standard input.
1904 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
1906 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
1907 rather than -rfc934mode.
1909 * Fix mhbuild, so that Content-Description and RFC-822 comments
1910 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
1913 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
1914 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).
1916 * Restore HP specific code to zotnet/tws/lexstring.c. Apparently
1919 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1921 * Released nmh-0.21.
1923 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
1924 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.
1926 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what transfer
1929 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what character set
1930 to use for text contents.
1932 * Removed old hpux specific code from zotnet/tws/lexstring.c
1934 1998-02-02 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1936 * Released nmh-0.21-pre2.
1938 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
1940 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
1941 header fields as per RFC-2047.
1943 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
1944 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
1945 spaces between encoded word are.
1947 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
1949 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
1950 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
1952 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
1953 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
1954 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
1956 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
1958 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
1959 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
1961 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.
1963 * Added support for %(decode) to fmtdump.c.
1965 * check_charset() now accepts US-ASCII as a subset of any
1966 ISO-8859-X character set.
1968 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
1971 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
1972 permissions, not write permissions.
1974 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
1975 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
1977 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
1980 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1982 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
1984 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
1985 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
1987 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
1988 message contains valid character set.
1990 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
1991 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
1993 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
1994 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
1996 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
1997 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
1998 between an encoded word and normal text.
2000 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
2001 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
2003 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
2004 as a RFC-2047 header field.
2006 * The command install-mh now recognizes the switches -version
2009 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
2010 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
2013 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
2014 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
2016 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
2017 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
2019 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
2021 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2023 * Released nmh-0.20.
2025 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
2027 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.
2029 * Changed the default format file for mhl (mhl.format) to
2030 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
2031 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
2033 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
2034 and the To: line was missing.
2036 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
2038 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2040 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
2042 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
2043 watch the POP transaction.
2045 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
2046 first, and use it if available.
2048 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
2049 first, and use it if available.
2051 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2053 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
2055 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
2056 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
2057 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
2060 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
2061 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
2062 returns the state FLDPLUS.
2064 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
2065 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
2068 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
2070 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
2071 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
2073 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
2075 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
2076 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
2078 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
2079 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
2080 message to which you are replying.
2082 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
2083 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
2084 making group replies.
2086 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
2088 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2090 * Released nmh-0.19.
2092 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
2093 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
2095 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
2096 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
2097 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
2098 to the end of the man page.
2100 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
2101 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
2102 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
2103 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
2104 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
2105 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
2107 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
2110 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
2111 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
2112 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
2114 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
2115 the next available number above the message number you wish
2118 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
2119 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
2121 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
2122 file sbr/seq_print.c
2124 * flist will now update the current folder.
2126 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
2127 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
2128 but now undocumented.
2130 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
2133 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
2134 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
2136 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
2138 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
2139 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
2141 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2143 * Released nmh-0.18.
2145 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
2146 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
2147 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
2149 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
2150 retains the public/private status of sequences.
2152 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
2153 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
2154 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
2155 previous public/private status.
2157 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
2160 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
2163 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
2164 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
2165 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
2167 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
2168 take option to determine whether it should get current
2169 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
2170 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
2172 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
2174 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
2175 wait for stopped processes.
2177 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
2178 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
2180 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2182 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
2184 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
2185 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
2187 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
2188 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
2190 * Change the way that memory for message status is
2191 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
2192 the folder/message structure. This required changing
2193 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
2195 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
2198 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
2201 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
2203 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
2204 the debugging output.
2206 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
2207 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
2209 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2211 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
2213 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
2214 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
2216 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
2218 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
2219 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
2220 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
2221 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
2222 in the given sequence.
2224 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
2225 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
2226 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
2227 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
2228 subdirectories of a given directory.
2230 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
2231 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
2232 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
2234 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
2235 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
2237 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
2239 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
2242 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
2243 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
2244 fields are now calculated at runtime.
2246 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
2247 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
2248 are calculated at runtime.
2250 Sun Nov 30 19:14:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2252 * Released nmh-0.18-pre2.
2254 * Add paragraph to man page for install-mh and to INSTALL file
2255 about checking for global mh.profile.
2257 * Renamed m_find() to context_find().
2258 Renamed m_replace() to context_replace().
2259 Renamed m_delete() to context_del().
2260 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
2261 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
2262 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
2264 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
2265 adding message to folder itself.
2267 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
2268 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
2269 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
2272 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
2273 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
2276 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
2277 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
2278 is the same as the direct smtp code).
2280 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
2281 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
2283 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
2284 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
2285 code to use it yet).

2289 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.
2291 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never

2295 context is updated before external rmmproc is called.
2297 * Removed all the OVERHEAD code.
2299 * Move code to add message to folder from refile.c
2302 Fri Jul 25 19:39:29 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2304 * Did some rearranging of the internals of inc.c.

2335 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
2337 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
2338 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
2340 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
2343 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
2344 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
2346 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
2347 number of refiled message.
2349 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
2351 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
2352 for return value of wait().

2356 Sat Jul 12 00:02:23 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2358 * Released nmh-0.16.
2360 Mon Jun 23 20:13:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2362 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
2364 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
2365 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
2366 deal with binary messages, yet).
2368 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
2370 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
2372 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
2373 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
2374 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
2375 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
2376 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
2377 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
2379 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
2380 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
2382 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
2383 From MH-6.8.4 patch.

2394 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
2397 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
2400 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
2402 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
2403 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
2404 which used unsigned chars by default.

2408 * Released nmh-0.15.
2410 * Added new form "scan.unseen" to distribution. It marks messages

2415 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
2417 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
2420 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
2421 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
2422 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
2424 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
2425 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
2427 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
2429 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
2430 they conflict with defines on AIX.
2432 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
2433 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
2434 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
2435 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
2437 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
2438 and put in own subroutine.
2440 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
2441 and put in own subroutine.
2443 * Moved code to remove messages from folder into own
2444 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and
2445 refile.c to use new routine.
2447 Fri May 16 06:09:31 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2449 * Renamed m_seqok to seq_nameok.
2451 * Changed m_setunseen, msh, mshcmds, flist, and scan to use
2454 * Changed m_seqflag to return the number of a sequence rather
2455 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
2456 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
2458 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
2461 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before
2462 adding message to sequence.

2465 corresponding file in sbr.
2467 * Renamed function m_setseq to m_setprev, and renamed corresponding
2470 * Changed mark.c and pick.c to use m_seqaddsel and m_seqdelsel.
2472 * Added new function m_seqdelsel to m_seqdel.c, which deletes
2473 all selected messages from a sequence.
2475 * Added new function m_seqaddsel to m_seqadd.c, which adds all
2476 selected messages to a sequence.
2478 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,
2481 Thu May 15 00:53:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2483 * Renamed function pack_folder to m_packfolder, and moved it
2484 from uip/folder.c into its own file sbr/m_packfolder.c
2486 Wed May 14 23:38:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2488 * Changed function m_gmsg to m_readfolder. Renamed file

2505 * Added new options `-checkmime', `-nocheckmime', and `-mhnproc'
2506 to show. Restructured code to handle options to various
2507 `procs' better. Deprecated `-noshowproc' option and NOMHNPROC
2508 environment variable.
2510 * Added new man page `mh-draft' which documents the
2511 draft folder facility in nmh.
2513 * Renamed fmtsbr.h to fmt_scan.h. Renamed fmtcompile.h

2525 * Released nmh-0.13.
2527 * Changed mhpath so it doesn't abort if a message sequence
2528 such as "mhpath all" expands to more than 1000 messages.
2529 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
2530 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
2533 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
2534 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
2536 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2538 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if
2539 necessary. So `folders' can now handle more than 300 folders.
2541 Tue Apr 22 14:01:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2543 * Change configure to use a compile check to see if the tm struct
2544 has tm_gmtoff, rather than using egrep.

2560 mp->attrstats with macros.
2562 * If system doesn't have SIGEMT (like Linux), then use SIGTERM
2565 * Change fstat to stat in m_gmsg.c since Linux wants
2568 * Merge Linux patch sent in by Michel Oosterhof (original
2569 patch from bsa@kf8nh.wariat.org).
2571 * Document an undocumented MH feature. mhn -form mhl.null
2572 will suppress the display of the message header.
2574 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
2576 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c
2577 and mshcmds.c, rather than hard coding in /bin/cat.
2579 * Add mhnproc to the list of `procs' in mh-profile.man.
2581 * Add configure test for lorder and tsort commands.
2583 * Commented out the padding in the `msgs` struct in h/mh.h
2585 * Change m_gmsg.c to allocate elements to the `info' array by
2586 500 elements at a time (rather than MAXFOLDERS / 5).
2588 * Add note to man page for mhmail that zero length messages are
2589 not sent. Need to use -body "" to send empty messages.
2591 * zotnet/mts/mts.c : compare character with '\0', not NULL.
2593 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
2595 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
2596 folder/message structure when done with folder.
2598 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is
2599 defined even if message is missing "From " line.
2601 Mon Mar 31 03:37:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2603 * Released nmh-0.10.

2610 Thu Mar 20 03:21:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2612 * Reversed previous decision to retain "From " lines in slocal.
2613 The "From " line is now removed from all messages.
2615 * inc now saves the date from the "From " envelope in the
2616 Delivery-Date header for all messages.
2618 * sbr/m_getfld.c: Clean up processing of Return-Path and
2619 Delivery-Date from the "From " envelope.
2621 Mon Mar 17 19:03:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2623 * client.c: cast iaddr to int before comparing return value
2624 of inet_addr with NOTOK.
2626 Tue Mar 11 04:38:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2628 * Grep test for signal names was failing on some OS'es because
2629 of missing tabs in regex.

2656 Mon Mar 3 00:18:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2658 * rcvtty.c : Changed to use #define UTMP_FILE (if exists) rather
2659 than hard coded "/etc/utmp".
2661 * Released nmh-0.08.
2663 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
2664 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of
2665 locking database itself.
2667 Thu Feb 27 05:28:09 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2669 * Added slocal action `mmdf' to deliver to a file in mmdf format.
2671 * Changed the slocal actions `file' and `>' to always deliver in
2672 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
2675 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
2676 rather than mmdf format.
2678 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
2679 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
2680 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
2681 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
2683 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
2685 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2687 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
2690 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2691 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2692 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
2694 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2695 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2696 rcvpack so you can choose the preferred format.
2698 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2700 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
2701 can still easily change this in config.h).
2703 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
2704 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
2705 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
2707 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2709 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather
2710 than tzset and external timezone variable.

2719 * Released nmh-0.07.
2721 Tue Feb 11 01:29:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2723 * Add check to configure, so that if ruserpass, or _ruserpass
2724 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
2726 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
2727 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
2730 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
2731 built-in FTP client in mhn.
2733 * Added configure check for ushort and ulong. Change code
2734 to use ushort/ulong rather than u_short/u_long.
2736 * A couple of small cleanups in locking code.
2738 * Added configure check for gmtoff element in struct tm.
2740 * Added configure check for tzset.
2742 Fri Feb 7 03:01:57 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2744 * Released nmh-0.06.
2746 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
2747 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
2749 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
2750 many such machines around anymore.
2752 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
2753 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
2755 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
2756 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
2758 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2760 * Check lex generated file in zotnet/tws and use
2761 pre-generated version if necessary.
2763 * Released nmh-0.05.
2765 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
2766 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
2767 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
2768 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
2770 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
2771 be linked in one pass.
2773 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2775 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
2776 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
2778 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2780 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
2782 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2784 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
2785 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
2786 become the current folder.
2788 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2790 * Released nmh-0.04.
2792 * Define ospeed and PC in termsbr.c is OS doesn't have
2795 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2797 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
2798 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
2799 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
2801 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2803 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
2804 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
2806 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2808 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
2809 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
2812 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
2813 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
2815 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2817 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
2818 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
2819 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
2820 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
2821 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
2822 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
2824 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2826 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
2827 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
2829 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
2830 a file (currently need to specify full path).
2832 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2834 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
2835 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
2837 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2839 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
2840 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
2841 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
2843 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2845 * Released nmh-0.03.
2847 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
2848 .mh_sequence file existed.
2850 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
2851 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
2853 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
2854 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
2857 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2859 * Changed flist option -unseen to -[no]all. Cleaned up
2862 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2864 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
2865 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
2866 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
2868 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2870 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
2871 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
2872 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
2874 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

2881 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2883 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
2884 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
2885 directory from where the source code is located.
2887 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2889 * Released nmh-0.02.

2910 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
2911 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path

2915 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2917 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
2919 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with
2920 macro defined on Solaris.
2922 Thu Dec 26 02:50:15 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2924 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
2925 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
2927 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
2928 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
2929 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man

2933 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2935 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker

2943 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
2945 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included

2950 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
2951 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
2953 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2955 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
2956 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
2957 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
2958 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
2959 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
2960 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
2962 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2964 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
2966 * Released nmh-0.01.
2968 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
2969 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
2970 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
2973 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2975 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
2978 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2980 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
2981 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
2983 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2985 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
2986 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
2987 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
2988 script to find_program.
2990 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2992 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
2993 speed up -recurse option.
2995 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
2996 yet, but it compiles :-)
2998 * Changed default location for install to
2999 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
3000 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
3001 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
3004 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
3005 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
3006 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
