1 2008-08-12 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
3 * test/tests/mhshow/test-qp: Test various valid and invalid
6 * uip/mhparse.c (openQuoted): Simplify the decode-or-show for loop by
7 peeking ahead to the next byte(s) when encountering '=', and just let
8 invalid escape sequences through as literals (fixes bug #15245).
10 2008-08-12 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
12 * autogen.sh (new file): add script for running the GNU
13 autotools in the right order
14 * INSTALL: mention that you need to run autogen.sh if you
16 * docs/README.developers: mention autogen.sh rather than
17 suggesting running autoheader and autoconf by hand.
18 * test/setup-test: run autotools via autogen.sh
20 2008-08-08 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
22 * sbr/discard.c, sbr/m_getfld.c, uip/scansbr.c: Add support for
23 DragonFlyBSD stdio (from NetBSD pkgsrc).
25 2008-08-05 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
27 * uip/folder.c: chdir(nmhdir) in main rather than in dodir, which
28 is called many times. Drop the chdir in get_folder_info, which
29 served no purpose at all. If struct stat has d_type (BSD), use
30 that to skip processing (strcmp, stat, and so on) of message
31 files, mostly undoing the slow-down from the last change.
33 * configure.in: Call CHECK_TYPE_STRUCT_DIRENT_D_TYPE.
35 * aclocal.m4: Add CHECK_TYPE_STRUCT_DIRENT_D_TYPE from
38 2008-08-04 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
40 * uip/folder.c: Simplify dodir/addir/addfold. Dump hacky
41 over-optimization in addir that tried to avoid readdir after all
42 child directories had been read; this was also trying to support
43 symlinks to directories, but would have been failing (because
44 nlink may have gone to 0 with symlinks to directories remaining)
45 had the lstat usage been correct (lstat doesn't fail for normal
46 directories; should have used S_ISLNK).
48 2008-08-03 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
50 * test/setup-test: use 'set -e' so we stop on compile failure.
51 Configure --enable-debug for convenience in debugging.
53 * uip/whatnowsbr.c: bug #23319: rework the way we handle the working
54 directory when invoking the user's shell, so that we don't have
55 issues when the cwd contains a space or shell special character.
56 * test/tests/whatnow/test-attach-detach, test/tests/whatnow/test-cd,
57 test/tests/whatnow/test-ls: test cases for this.
59 * sbr/fmt_compile.c: add 'do { ... } while (0)' wrappers
60 to various multi-statement macros to avoid nasty surprises
61 if the macros are used in if() clauses.
63 * bug #23436: man/scan.man, man/forw.man, man/inc.man,
64 man/mh-chart.man, man/mhmail.man, man/mhshow.man,
65 man/mhstore.man, man/msgchk.man, man/packf.man, man/scan.man:
66 fix minor syntax errors groff warns about.
67 * test/runtest, test/README: allow test cases to report
68 that they have been SKIPped as well as PASS/FAIL
69 * test/tests/manpages/test-manpages - new test which runs groff
70 on the manpages and checks that there are no warnings.
71 * test/runalltests: ignore editor backup files
73 2008-08-03 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
75 * etc/replcomps, etc/replgroupcomps: Trim trailing whitespace from
78 2008-08-03 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
80 * sbr/fmt_compile.c: when doing an if-test on the result
81 of a function which returns a string result, check whether
82 the string is non-empty (as the documentation says we do).
83 Previously we were always testing the integer 'value'. Bug
84 spotted by Eric Gillespie.
85 * test/tests/repl/test-if-str: test case for this bug
87 2008-07-24 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
89 * test/setup-test: Run 'make clean' before building
91 2008-07-24 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
93 * test/runtest: cat test-temp-dir only once. Destroy and create
94 test Mail hierarchy here, so each test has its own independent
97 * test/setup-test: Drop needless pushd/popd, which don't exist in
98 sh anyway. Don't use aclocal, which is part of automake.
99 Don't create Mail hierarchy here (see test/runtest).
101 * test/tests/folder/test-create, tests/folder/test-total: Drop
104 * tests/pick/test-pick: Remove failing no-op test.
106 * test/tests/scan/test-scan: Write expected and actual output to
107 files and diff them. This way, if the output differs, diff
108 provides the FAILing exit code and shows the differences.
110 2008-06-12 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
111 * man/repl.man, etc/mhl.reply:
112 Add an attribution line when replying to messages.
114 2008-06-02 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
116 * h/mh.h, h/prototypes.h, sbr/done.c, uip/inc.c,
117 uip/mhbuild.c, uip/mhlist.c, uip/mhn.c, uip/mhshow.c,
118 uip/mhstore.c, uip/mhtest.c, uip/packf.c, uip/pick.c,
119 uip/rcvdist.c, uip/rcvstore.c, uip/sendsbr.c: when
120 building on gcc, use the noreturn attribute on various
121 functions (should improve code and avoid some spurious
122 'uninitialized variable' warnings).
124 2008-06-01 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
126 * docs/README.developers: update the bits about doing a
127 release announcement, now I've actually done one.
129 2008-05-22 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
131 * uip/scansbr.c: don't use MB_CUR_MAX if we aren't compiled
132 with multibyte support.
134 * uip/whatnowsbr.c: factor out common code for writing ls
135 shell command, and make it do more sensible buffer length
136 checks. Also avoid relying on the return value of sprintf(),
137 as some old systems don't return number of characters written.
139 2008-05-21 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
141 * sbr/utils.c (mh_xrealloc): don't assume realloc() can
142 handle NULL pointers; some non-POSIX realloc()s can't.
144 * sbr/dtimep.lex: add some table size declarations for the
145 benefit of elderly lexes with small defaults.
147 2008-05-18 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
149 * sbr/addrsbr.c: removed "err" from conditional, because gcc
150 correctly warned that it would always evaluate as true. It's
151 the address of a static array.
153 2008-05-16 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
155 * sbr/Makefile.in, config/Makefile.in: Don't use $< in target rules
156 in makefiles, as POSIX says it's only defined in inference rules.
158 2008-05-13 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
160 * configure.in, INSTALL: if --enable-masquerade is not
161 specified to configure, enable all supported masquerade forms.
162 This allows users to masquerade with the default
163 configuration. That seems to be more worthwhile now than
164 trying to prevent users from using it, especially with
165 single-user installations or those where a user can edit
168 2008-05-04 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
170 * bug #23167: sbr/ruserpass.c (ruserpass): make bad permissions
171 on .netrc be an instantly fatal error. Previously we returned
172 an error value; however, no caller was checking it. So now
173 ruserpass() has a void return type.
175 * bug #23163: various minor fixes for the benefit of
176 older Unixes (specifically SunOS 4):
177 reintroduce strerror() substitute implementation
178 provide memmove() substitute implementation
180 * bug #23163: fix accidentally broken 'build outside
181 source directory' feature
183 * bug #23162: sbr/dtime.c: fix stray HAVE_TM_GMTOFF that
184 wasn't updated to the new macro name.
186 2008-04-30 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
188 * mts/smtp/smtp.c: provide a callback for SASL_CB_AUTHNAME
189 (fixes issue with SASL sending the wrong username in some
190 circumstances). Thanks to <der_wachtmeister@freenet.de>
193 2008-04-29 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
195 * Revert previous attempt at fix for SASL issue as it
196 is the wrong approach.
198 * Fix in correct manner, by making sm_rrecord() and thus
199 sm_hear() set the length of the reply string correctly
200 (the SASL libraries now care if you pass in the wrong
203 * Correct various places in smtp.c where the reply string
204 might not have been correctly NUL-terminated. Includes a
205 fix for a particularly nasty and long standing screwup
206 where the buffer length counting in smhear() was totally
207 broken for continued lines from the server.
209 2008-04-29 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
211 * Cope with sasl_decode64() returning SASL_CONTINUE, as
212 happens with newer sasl libraries and LOGIN auth.
214 2008-04-27 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
216 * Updated some of the 'how to do a release' documentation.
218 * Upped the VERSION string to '1.3-dev', since 1.3-RC1 has
221 2008-04-27 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
223 * Released nmh-1.3 RC1.
225 2008-04-11 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
227 * acconfig.h, configure.in, sbr/dtime.c, sbr/pidwait.c,
228 uip/mhshowsbr.c, uip/rcvtty.c, uip/slocal.c, uip/termsbr.c:
229 move most remaining macros out of acconfig.h which is an
230 obsolete feature of autoconf
232 2008-04-05 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
234 * bug #18655: fix use of admonish() for a fatal error (should
235 be adios(); only actual effect would be wrong exit code).
236 Thanks to Craig Leres for spotting this.
238 2008-04-05 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
240 * bug #20028 (Debian bug 399271): fix code assuming that pointer
241 differences were 32 bits -- thanks to Dean Gaudet for the patch.
243 2008-01-25 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
245 * uip/mhshowsbr.c (show_all_messages): Be more generous when parsing
248 2007-11-04 Joel Reicher <joel@panacea.null.org>
250 * Changed done() link overriding to function pointer. Return type
251 is now void so that exit() can be used as done() callback. Dead
252 code return from all done()s removed, with return 1 in main()
253 following done() (should never be reached).
255 2007-08-21 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
257 * Red Hat Bug #253342: inc.c, utils.c, utils.h: When inc is run with
258 the -silent flag, don't exit(1) for no apparent reason.
260 2007-03-12 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
262 * bug #18630, #18631, #18632, #18634: various patches from
263 Craig Leres fixing error message argument problems.
265 2007-03-12 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
267 * bug #15212: configure.in, acconfig.h: remove configure test for
268 broken AT&T vi. This test was broken (it was always returning
269 failure even for non-broken vi implementations) and
270 unfixable. Nobody should be using AT&T vi any more so I have
271 simply moved it back to being a setting you can put manually into
272 acconfig.h if you must.
274 2006-10-24 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
276 * uip/sendsbr.c: with attachformat values of 1 or 2, add
277 name= portion to Content-Type header. This makes them
278 consistent with attachformat value 0. And it allows mhstore
279 to use that (file)name when extracting attachments.
281 2006-08-26 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
283 * configure.in: If we're not using dotlocking, there is no need to set
286 2006-03-30 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
288 * uip/sendsbr.c: with attachformat values of 1 or 2, only
289 generate Content-Disposition headers for MIME attachments, not
290 for the message contents themselves. Microsoft Outlook Build
291 10.0.6626, at least, doesn't show the message contents if they
292 have Content-Disposition.
294 2006-03-09 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
296 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c (decode_rfc2047): Don't close the iconv descriptor
299 2006-03-08 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
301 * (mh_strcasecmp): Rename the private strcasecmp function to
302 mh_strcasecmp. This keeps the newer gnu linker happy.
304 2006-03-05 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
306 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c: don't try to malloc 0 bytes if an RFC2047
307 encoded block is empty
309 2006-03-04 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
311 * etc/Makefile.in: use INSTALL_SCRIPT to install scripts;
312 this allows INSTALL_PROGRAM to be set to 'install -s' so
313 binaries are stripped on installation. Apparently the BSDs
316 2006-02-25 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
318 * uip/sendsbr.c: replaced st_mtim with st_mtime, that's what
319 it should have been. Added #include of h/tws.h to pick up
322 2006-02-20 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
324 * h/mh.h, h/prototypes.h, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, uip/send.c,
325 uip/sendsbr.c, uip/viamail.c, uip/whatnowsbr.c, man/send.man:
326 added -attachformat switch to send, to support alternate MIME
327 header contents when using -attach. See send man page for
330 * man/mhbuild.man: wrapped one appearance of "Content-Disposition"
331 with quotes, to be consistent with others.
333 2006-02-20 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
335 * h/utils.h, sbr/utils.c, uip/flist.c, uip/folder.c: Move duplicate
336 function num_digits into utils.c
338 2006-02-19 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
340 * sbr/m_draft.c, sbr/utils.c, uip/folder.c, uip/inc.c,
341 uip/mhstoresbr.c, uip/popi.c, uip/refile.c: Add create_folder()
342 function, replacing duplicate code during folder creation.
344 2006-02-18 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
346 * h/mime.h, h/mhparse.h, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, uip/mhfree.c,
347 man/mhbuild.man, docs/TODO: added support for an optional
348 Content-Disposition header in mhbuild (only). Its contents
349 are supplied between {}, positioned after the optional [], in
350 a mhbuild directive. If the contents do not contain a
351 "filename=" parameter, and the directive has a filename, or
352 something else that ends with "name=", then that will be used
353 to add a "filename=" parameter to the header.
355 2006-02-12 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
357 * docs/TODO: added RFC2183 to reference of RFC1806 for
358 Content-Disposition header.
360 2006-01-31 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
362 * uip/mhbuild.c, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, man/mhbuild.man: added
363 -nocontentid switch, to disable generation of Content-ID:
364 header in MIME messages. (Also added -contentid for
365 symmetry.) The default configuration of Microsoft Outlook,
366 Build 10.0.3416 in particular, doesn't see attachments in
367 incoming messages if there are Content-ID headers, see
368 http://home.cwru.edu/~wrv/eudoraoutlookfix.html. This allows
369 users to easily accomodate that by adding
370 mhbuild: -nocontentid to their .mh_profile.
372 2006-01-29 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
374 * bug 4360: uip/replsbr.c: remove trailing newlines from components
375 to fix bug with spaces at the end of Subject/References in replies
377 2006-01-18 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
379 * configure.in: use AS_HELP_STRING for formatting help messages
381 * configure.in, sbr/fmt_scan.c: add autoconf magic to support
382 old systems that don't support multibyte character sets
384 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: fix bug with insertion of newline being wrong if
385 the num function was used at the end of the format buffer
387 2006-01-17 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
389 * uip/post.c, uip/spost.c: in make_bcc_file (), use same
390 logic as in finish_headers () to detect whether there is an
391 existing From: line in the draft. If draft_from masquerade
392 flag is enabled, this allows the From: to be obeyed in the
393 Bcc, instead of the old behavior of always replacing it with
396 2006-01-17 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
398 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: more robust multi-byte/column support for field
399 widths, restoring right justification feature
401 2006-01-16 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
403 * h/aliasbr.h, h/rcvmail.h, man/Makefile.in, man/slocal.man,
404 sbr/lock_file.c, uip/aliasbr.c, uip/dropsbr.c, uip/post.c,
405 uip/slocal.c, man/mh-mts.man: remove remnants of code for MMDF
407 * uip/scansbr.c: multiply buffer size by MB_CUR_MAX so multi-byte
410 2006-01-14 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
412 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: Turn the PUTSF macro into a function capable of
413 handling multi column characters.
415 2006-01-07 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
417 * Remove sbr/strerror.c -- strerror(3) is defined in C89.
419 2006-01-06 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
421 * patch #3968: Move the add() function from its own file (add.c) and
422 into utils.c. There was also a duplicate add() function in mf.c which
425 2006-01-02 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
427 * Remove sbr/pwd.c file, moving the pwd() function into sbr/utils.c.
429 2006-01-01 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
431 * patch #3967: Create a mh_xrealloc function to prevent mistakes when
434 2006-01-01 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
436 * patch #3966: Create a mh_xmalloc function to prevent mistakes when
439 2005-12-24 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
441 * Bug #15285: Don't use $< in target rules in makefiles, as POSIX
442 says it's only defined in inference rules. (BSD make was expanding
443 $< to the empty string in the rule for building sbr/dtimep.c, which
444 causes lex to apparently hang because it's reading from stdin.)
446 2005-12-24 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
448 * Completely redo db library checking -- we now check for working
449 (include file, library) pairs rather than checking for headers and
450 libraries separately. We also now provide --with-ndbm=lib and
451 --with-ndbmheader=header options to configure to handle situations
452 where configure's autodetection fails.
454 2005-12-21 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
456 * Fix stupid accidental dependence on a bash quirk in previous
457 configure script change.
459 2005-12-15 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
461 * Improve checking for Berkeley db libraries: configure should now
462 find a suitable library on systems with new gdbm where
463 compatibility functions are in the gdbm_compat library, and on
466 2005-12-13 Michael Forrest <mef@computer.org>
468 * Fedora Bug #163760: sbr/context_read.c (context_read): Ensure that
469 the context is only read once.
471 2005-12-12 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
473 * uip/sendsbr.c (annoaux): Fix the call to annotate() fixing a bug
474 which prevented repl from properly annotating messages.
476 2005-12-07 Jon Steinhart <nmh@fourwinds.com>
478 * Fixed a bug where anno -append put the headers in the wrong place
479 if applied to a message that didn't contain any headers.
481 * Added a special value of "all" to the -number option that causes
482 anno -delete to delete all matching components instead of just
485 * Added new -preserve and -nopreserve options. Using -preserve
486 retains the original last accessed and last modified times on
489 2005-12-05 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
491 * Fedora Bug #174983: configure.in: Fix the AC_PATH_PROG default when
492 vi isn't found during build.
494 2005-11-19 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
496 * bug #14977: sbr/context_read.c: special case an MHCONTEXT of
497 "/dev/null" and don't try to lock it.
499 * bug #9228, debian bug #146449: man/mh-profile.man: make it clearer
500 that lower case environment variables (and in particular mheditor)
501 are internal to nmh and not intended to be set by the user.
503 2005-11-09 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
505 * sbr/mf.c: fix buffer overrun with absurdly long addresses
506 (only causes crashes if scan is run with '-width 16536' or similar)
508 * bug #7917: sbr/context_foil.c, sbr/context_read.c,
509 sbr/context_save.c: mark 'no context' with NULL rather than
510 "/dev/null" so we don't inadvertently try to lock /dev/null (which
511 takes up to a minute in some locking configurations and makes post
514 * patch #3913: uip/post.c: pass some globals into sm_init() so that
515 it uses SASL if necessary. (This bug was preventing Bcc'd emails
516 from being sent via SASL authenticated SMTP.)
518 * bug #9813: uip/rmf.c: don't crash if there's no Current-Folder
519 entry in the context file.
521 2005-11-13 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
523 * bug #7833: uip/Makefile.in: remove link to install-mh that caused
524 problems on some systems
526 * bug #739: Makefile.in: install target now depends on all to avoid
527 problem on case-insensitive file systems with the INSTALL file
529 2005-11-10 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
531 * Fedora Bug #172838: configure.in: Fix the AC_PATH_PROG default when
532 sendmail isn't found during build.
534 2005-11-09 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
536 * h/aliasbr.h: fix a non-ANSI prototype.
538 2005-11-08 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
540 * Simon Burge: acconfig.h, configure.in, uip/rcvtty.c, uip/slocal.c:
541 fix to handle getutent() on NetBSD
543 * INSTALL, README, docs/README.about, man/nmh.man: update most
544 references to the web page and mailing list locations
546 * bug #10230: etc/Makefile.in, man/Makefile.in, uip/Makefile.in:
547 Michael De La Rue: prepend DESTDIR to install locations
549 * configure.in, */Makefile.in, mts/smtp/smtp.c: replace obsolete
552 2005-11-06 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
554 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, sbr/fmt_scan.c, h/prototypes.h: fix various
555 possible overruns of the buffers in fmt_scan() which would cause
556 crashes if scan was run with '-width 16536' or similar.
558 * uip/popsbr.c: fix compile error which only showed up if nmh
559 was configured with --enable-apop.
561 * Debian Bug# 245932, RedHat Bug# 172388: uip/mhparse.c: don't
562 crash when handling a multipart MIME message with an invalid
563 Content-Type header (file handle was being fclose()d twice).
565 * sbr/Makefile.in: adjust lex command to work on both old and
566 new versions of flex.
568 * configure.in: add an AC_PREREQ() so autoconf 2.13 gives a helpful
569 error message and the Debian autoconf-version-guessing wrapper
570 doesn't guess wrongly.
572 2005-11-02 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
574 * Debian Bug# 320069: Nick Rusnov: uip/popsbr.c: fail when
575 kpop connection attempted without KPOP support compiled in
577 * Debian Bug# 320090: Nick Rusnov: sbr/Makefile.in: fix for newer
578 version of flex and remove autogenerated file from cvs
580 * patch #1155: uip/flist.c: speed up flist by skipping stat on
581 files with numbers as names
583 * docs/Makefile.in: include new files in distribution
585 2005-10-11 Bill Wohler <wohler@newt.com>
587 * docs/FAQ: fold questions into MH FAQ and distribute that instead
589 2005-10-05 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
591 * Harald Geyer: h/mh.h, uip/replsbr.c: back out previous change
592 (fork/vfork) and replace with code that handles the issue directly
594 2005-05-18 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
596 * Debian Bug# 143485: Nick Rusnov: h/mh.h: use fork instead of
599 * Debian Bug# 261592: Harald Geyer: uip/mhlsbr.c, uip/replsbr.c:
600 test/report error writing to stdout
602 * mts/smtp/smtp.c, uip/popsbr.c: correct SASL include file locations
604 * docs/COMPLETION-BASH: bash completion definitions from Debian
606 * patch #2863: savannah@brisammon.fastmail.fm: sbr/folder_read.c:
607 fix a bug affecting AFS where nmh was setting the READONLY flag
608 for a folder even when you do have write access to the folder
610 * Carl Mummert: h/fmt_compile.h, man/mh-format.man,
611 sbr/fmt_compile.c, sbr/fmt_scan.c: add unquote() function for
612 removing quotes from RFC-2822 encoded headers
614 2005-02-23 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
616 * use iconv to convert RFC-2047 encoded headers to the
617 character set used by the current locale
619 * sbr/folder_read.c fix Debian bug #202667: crash when a
620 message's filename overflows an int when converted
622 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
623 versions (from automake 1.9.5)
625 2005-02-21 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
627 * sbr/getpass.c fix bug where inc crashed on failing to reopen
630 2005-01-27 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
632 * Added -proxy option to inc and msgchk. Based on old patch
633 from Michael Richardson.
635 * On systems where it is available, use nl_langinfo to get the
636 character set if MM_CHARSET is unset
638 2005-01-21 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
640 * sbr/check_charset.c US-ASCII is a subset of UTF-8 so can be
641 handled directly when UTF-8 is being used
643 2004-12-17 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
645 * uip/mhmisc.c Fix -part option to mhshow/mhlist/mhstore to
646 find sub-parts of the specified part
648 2004-11-19 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
650 * h/prototypes.h, sbr/folder_addmsg.c, uip/mhstoresbr.c,
651 uip/rcvstore.c, uip/refile.c: Added mail directory argument to
652 folder_addmsg in order to make it possible to provide a path to
653 the ext_hook call that is mailpath-based. A problem existed when
654 a folder was a symbolic link and the pwd call would return the
655 path relative to the filesystem, not to mailpath. A new argument
656 was needed because there was otherwise no reasonable way to get
659 2004-11-16 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
661 * sbr/folder_pack.c: Fixed problem where the refile hook was being
662 called after a message was renamed so that it wasn't around for
663 the hook. The hook is now called before the message file is
666 * sbr/folder_addmsg.c: Fixed wrong directory for hook when
667 refiling with -src option.
669 2004-10-15 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
671 * uip/sortm.c: Fixed calling of external hooks.
673 2004-10-12 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
675 * uip/inc.c: Fixed another weird bug caused by the static
676 mailpath being overwritten.
678 * uip/sendsbr.c: Fixed bug that caused anno to mangle headers.
680 * sbr/lock_file.c: Fixed strange bug that prevented a lock from
681 ever being obtained if getting it failed the first time. The
682 problem was that the string of XXXXXX that is required by
683 mkstemp() was overwritten the first time through, and so all
684 subsequent times failed because mkstemp() failed. The fix
685 reinitializes the tmp file string.
687 * uip/inc.c: Fixed bug in which the static maildir was overwritted
688 if a format string was read from the profile.
690 * sbr/folder_delmsgs.c: Fixed bug that was producing an incorrect
691 path for the external hook.
693 2003-10-06 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
695 * uip/slocal.c, configure.in: db configuration fix for Debian; yet
696 another location for ndbm.
698 2003-09-30 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
700 * Fix 'pick' so handling of options "-list" and "-seq" are
702 * Fix 'inc' realloc error when bringing in more than 100 msgs
704 * Patches submitted by Nick Rusnov from Debian archive applied:
707 136976 - Handle binary content messages
708 143427 - mh-format.man typo
709 144098 - 'spost; should have same behavior as 'post'
710 w.r.t. mts.conf masquerade line
711 149745 - slocal ignores 'N' result of previous command
712 152728 - increase SMTP timeouts to conform to RFC 1123
713 The timeouts suggested by the RFC seem long
714 to me - but the RFC is still listed as active.
715 181867 - typo for nmh.man
717 2003-08-10 Jeffrey C Honig <jch@honig.net>
719 * Fix problem where parsing of address/date fields in fmt_compile
720 is optimized to the first instance. The first instance may be in
721 contitional code which will result in cached data to
722 be used. Instead, convert c_flags to a flags field from a boolean
723 and parse on the first use.
724 * Remove some unused flag bits.
726 Fri Jul 01 22:02:00 2003 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
728 * Applied fixes for configuration problems with Solaris and
729 systems with gdbm instead of db1 (includes bug #2024)
731 #578 - repl leaks umask
732 #1393 - sortm core dumps
733 #1650 - msh leaks file descriptors
734 #1730 - Double free() in mhfree.c:free_encoding()
735 #3356 - In-Reply-To header in default replcomps should be
737 * Revised man page for mh-format (bug #2031)
738 * New replcomps, etc, with Fcc: +outbox in default versions
740 Sat Mar 17 03:18:15 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
742 * Ken Hornstein's configure.in Cyrus SASL checks were doing
743 `x"$with_cyrus_sasl" != "no"' instead of `... != x"no"'.
745 Tue Mar 06 21:04:27 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
747 * Found some historical information about MH in RFC 808.
748 Supplemented it with info from Jerry Peek's MH book and added it
749 to docs/README.about.
751 Tue Feb 6 20:35:40 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
753 * sbr/dtime.c Use the same Y2K correction code as dtimep.lex
755 * sbr/dtimep.lex Restrict the parser to accept either
756 a numerical timezone offset, or a symbolic one (e.g. EST),
757 but not both (Since "2000 -400 EDT" might cause a double
758 subtraction of 60 minutes if both are parsed. One should be
761 Mon Feb 05 20:22:54 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
763 * -L isn't sufficient for specifying the path of the Cyrus SASL
764 shared library. That'll allow us to link successfully, but on
765 many/most OSes that won't allow us to find libsasl at runtime. On
766 Solaris, we need to specify the library path with -R as well (or
767 else the user will have to use the $LD_LIBRARY_PATH kludge, which
768 is considered harmful). This fix should be extended to other OSes
771 * Print whether we have SASL support in the "nmh configuration"
772 summary configure prints out.
774 * Say in README.developers to use `\date' in case anyone is like
775 me and has `date' aliased in their shell to use a nonstandard (but
776 subjectively more readable) format.
778 Thu Jan 25 21:15:52 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
780 * man/mh-chart.man has updated synposes of
783 Tue Jan 23 20:26:15 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
785 * etc/digestcomps tried to force dates into a
786 19xx when it's not necessary.
788 Fri Jan 19 21:22:08 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
790 * First round of manpage updates finished. They
791 are standardized on -man macros, with minimal
794 * man/tmac.h.in is no longer needed, since the
795 manpages do not depend on them anymore. Note:
796 strict "man" programs that didn't allow ".so"
797 sourcing outside the man tree will now format
798 the man pages correctly.
800 * man/vmh.1 is no longer built, since uip/vmh isn't
802 Tue Jan 9 6:01:22 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
804 * Finished manpages ali-prev
806 * Removed deprecated files from the repository.
807 Specifically, those rooted in zotnet/ and mts/sendmail
808 mts/mmdf. "cvs update -dP" will give a pruned directory
811 * Updated docs/Makefile.in to include README.manpages, and
812 uip/Makefile.in to include popi.c (which isn't being built,
813 though). This allows "make nmhdist" to create an archive that
814 is file-for-file identical to the current cvs repository.
816 Sun Dec 31 20:48:50 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
818 * Create docs/README.manpages, which details
819 the formatting rules I've been using.
823 Sat Dec 30 9:50:13 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
825 * Created a new file "DATE" to hold the date
826 of the most recent nmh release. This date will be
827 used in the manpages.
829 * Updated docs/README.developers to add the step
830 of updating DATE. Also, updated configure to
831 read in the contents of the file as the variable
834 * Started work on updating man pages, with only
835 ali finished so far. Changes: 1) no dependence
836 on an external macro file, 2) uses only
837 -man macros (although I may be mistaken in this),
838 3) syntax in the SYNOPSIS is a little more
839 in line with standard UNIX documentation, such as
840 bold flags and italicized parameters.
842 Sun Dec 24 10:06:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
844 * Updated INSTALL with information about the
845 --with-locking option.
847 * Fixed the Hesiod tests in configure.in. In
848 systems where res_send was in -lresolv, this
849 information was not being communicated to the
850 HESIOD_LIBS var. Now, if res_send is not found
851 in the default libraries, it's assumed to be
852 in -lresolv, and thus -lresolv is appended to
853 HESIOD_LIBS, which will need that to avoid
854 undefined symbols problems.
856 * Fixed the Kerberos tests in configure.in. New
857 versions of Kerberos 5 have renamed -lcrypto
858 to -lk5crypto (circa krb5 1.1 or thereabouts). The
859 new test tries to determine if -lk5crypto exists. If so,
860 this is a new krb5 system. If not, test for -lcrypto
861 and the rest of old krb5. If that fails, look
862 for a genuine krb4 installation.
864 Fri Dec 22 22:08:51 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
866 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in msgchk.man.
867 -snoop was documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
869 Fri Dec 22 23:42:16 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
871 * Made a new ./configure option called
872 "--with-locking" that allows the file
873 locking mechanism to be chosen there instead of
874 requiring a manual edit of config.h.
876 * If the option is not explicitly set, or an
877 invalid option is specified, "dot" locking is
878 chosen. Valid options are "dot", "fcntl",
879 "flock", and "lockf". We need a way to tell
880 the user that these are the valid options, and
881 change the flag "--with-locking" if it's not
884 Fri Dec 22 19:21:29 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
886 * Remove the lex-specific memory hints at the
887 beginning of sbr/dtimep.lex. We've already
888 committed to supporting flex only, since
889 lex does not easily allow us to parse a single
890 string, as well as other problems documented
891 below and on nmh-workers.
893 * Added a switch statement to configure.in to
894 test for Mac OS X. If this is the case, LDFLAGS
895 should not contain "-s" since the linker rejects
898 * Updated MACHINES to include Mac OS X Public Beta,
899 as well as Linux 2.4 running glibc 2.2.
901 Wed Dec 20 16:00:46 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
903 * Marked deprecated directories in docs/README.developers
904 as deprecated, with pointers to the new code location.
905 Eventually these deprecated directories should go away.
907 Tue Dec 19 19:16:37 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
909 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in inc.man. -snoop was
910 documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
912 Thu Dec 14 14:32:09 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
914 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
915 versions on ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/config, dated
916 12-07-00. This should prevent configure from failing
917 on newer operating systems because config.{guess,sub}
918 couldn't correctly identify them.
920 Thu Dec 14 1:30:44 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
922 * Fixed the circular dependency created when I moved
923 zotnet/mts to mts/generic and merged them into libmts.
924 mts/generic/client.c and mts/generic/mts.c are now in sbr/
925 (and thus in libmh), which makes libmh self-contained and
926 not depending on an external archive.
928 * All include statements now look for mts.h in h/. The
929 Makefiles and configure script have been modified so that
930 mts/generic is no longer built.
932 Mon Dec 11 22:08:07 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
934 * When Shantonu made the new libmts.a, he swapped $(MTSLIB) and
935 libmh.a in sbr/Makefile.in so that libmh.a comes first, but this
936 causes the build to fail on Solaris, because libmts.a has to get
937 ruserpass() out of libmh.a. Swapping them back to the way Ken
938 Hornstein's patch (which I applied on Jul 20) put them, with
939 libmh.a correctly coming second. If there are times when libmts.a
940 needs to come second, then it would appear there's a circular
941 dependency and someone (Shantonu?) did an mts merge incorrectly.
943 Fri Sep 8 01:36:23 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
945 * Took out bad time textual time zones like BST and JST.
946 I found them online somewhere, but am not sure if they're
949 Fri Sep 8 00:36:48 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
951 * Moved zotnet/mts to mts/generic. This code reorganization
952 makes the entire zotnet tree deprecated -- bboards is unneeded,
953 mf was was moved to sbr, tws was rewritten and moved to sbr, and
956 * Created a new static library called libmts.a used during
957 compilation which includes the generic mts code and the
958 smtp/sendmail code. This supercedes the functionality of the
959 old libsmtp.a and the remains of libzot.a.
961 * Updated header includes to reference the new location of mts.h
962 in mts/generic/mts.h. Also, update the configure and top-level
963 Makefile not to descend into zotnet. Also, they don't descend
964 into mts/mmdf and mts/sendmail (the sendmail code has been
965 merged into the smtp code).
967 * Added #include <h/nmh.h> to h/md5.h, since my compile was
968 complaining about implicitly-declared memcpy and memset, which
969 appear to be in strings.h. In any event, nmh.h should take care
972 * When doing a "make nmhdist", notice that the generated
973 snapshot does not include zotnet of the mts directories as noted
974 above. Since they are no longer compiled, and I don't see any
975 obvious code path to get to them, end-users should probably
976 not need them. If you think otherwise, turn Makefile generation
977 back on in configure.in and turn on recursion into those dirs
978 in the appropriate Makefile.in
980 Wed Sep 6 22:40:03 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
982 * Tracked down the problem in the new dtimep where time
983 zones were being radically misreported. It was because the
984 parser knew about military time zones (such as M or E) but in
985 some cases did not know about the textual representation of
986 some zones (like MET). When it encountered one of these, the
987 date parser misread MET as the military time zone T (well, first
988 zone M, then E, and finally T). I took military zones out, and
989 things seem much better. Also, the default behavior of parsing
990 time zones appears to default to GMT in the absence of better
991 info, which is less bogus than assuming the mail came from the
992 current time zone, which was the behavior in 1.04.
994 Thu Aug 10 13:22:13 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
996 * Decided that limiting the message number columns to 3 on my
997 scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD (to try to regain space taken by
998 extra date info) was ill-conceived. It's not that tough to get
999 past 999 messages, though I imagine it's rather rare to exceed
1000 9999. Changed these to 4. Also put the "replied / encrypted"
1001 column back in YYYYMMDD -- I've never seen it show anything but a
1002 space, but that space is useful if you use scan, grep, and awk
1003 (with the default field separator) to grab message numbers (I know
1004 -- pick should really be used for these purposes...).
1006 Mon Aug 7 20:11:09 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1008 * Modify umask set by mhshow to enable user execute bit, so that
1009 viewers that create temporary directories (e.g., lynx) will be
1010 able to access them.
1012 Thu Aug 03 17:14:08 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1014 * TODO: Allow multiple simultaneous differing contexts, probably
1015 each tied to a parent (terminal) process.
1017 Tue Aug 1 10:48:05 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
1019 * Makefile install rules should not look for generated files in
1020 the source tree -- this will happen to work when configuring and
1021 building inside the source tree but will fail when using an
1022 external build tree. Fixed etc/Makefile.in.
1024 Mon Jul 24 16:20:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1026 * When Shantonu wrote the new, more portable dtimep.lex, he left
1027 out the #ifdef DSTXXX stuff for some reason. Not a good idea, as
1028 that code is required for proper printing of numeric-offset
1029 timezones that have daylight saving time. Without that code,
1030 -0700 during DST gets printed as MST instead of PDT.
1032 * Renamed DSTXXX as ADJUST_NUMERIC_ONLY_TZ_OFFSETS_WRT_DST and
1033 added an explanatory comment by its #definition.
1035 * Updated README.developers with the fact that zotnet/tws is going away.
1037 Thu Jul 20 20:30:52 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1039 * Moved Kimmo's new "--with-hash-backup" to be output with the
1040 rest of the --with options in the configure --help output. Also,
1041 people did not preserve my alphabetization of the --with options
1042 when they added new ones. Re-alphabetized.
1044 * One more pass at README.developers now that it's clear that my
1045 previously-suggested one-line autoconf-file commit can cause
1046 unnecessary local makes and an out-of-sync stamp-h.in file, but
1047 would not cause problems for other people using the CVS files.
1049 * Ken Hornstein's SASL patch was not integrated properly with
1050 Ruud's new merged mts/sendmail code. Kimmo has since fixed nmh so
1051 it compiles, but according to Ken, the SASL stuff still does not
1052 work. Integrating a patch from him for this.
1054 * Last pass at README.developers -- Kimmo's 5-step commit was
1055 overkill. You only need 3 steps, since configure.in is the only
1056 autoconf file with the RCS $Id keyword.
1058 * Applied Kurt J. Lidl <lidl@eng.us.uu.net>'s $MAILHOST patch:
1060 I have a small patch that would be nice to be included --
1061 basically, it allows the usage of the "MAILHOST" environment
1062 variable, without having to have HESIOD turned on. I need
1063 this functionality for my environment, where we have identical
1064 /usr/local on all my machines (so I cannot just hardcode into
1065 the mts.conf file), and I have multiple POP mail servers for
1068 Modified inc.man to reflect that along with "pophost:" and -host,
1069 $MAILHOST can now activate POP mail inclusion as well.
1071 * Fixed warnings from diff on first-time install of nmh. Also
1072 added 'echo's clarifying the etc file installation activities.
1074 Tue Jul 18 19:36:59 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
1076 * Added the answer to Dan's question in README.developers.
1078 Mon Jul 17 19:10:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1080 * Clarified and made some corrections to Kimmo's README.developers
1081 changes (BTW, if anyone can explain why the RCS Ids are able to cause
1082 problems with the dependencies, please fill in the explanation --
1083 I never encountered a problem with the old single-commit method).
1085 Sat Jul 15 23:13:49 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
1087 * Add configure option --with-hash-backup so the backup prefix can
1088 be easily changed from "," to "#".
1090 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that it works with any make.
1092 * Use mkstemp in sbr/lock_file.c.
1094 * Commits of autoconf-related files apparently can't all be done
1095 in one shot due to RCS Ids changing when committing -- updated
1098 Tue Jul 11 14:18:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1100 * Clarified post.man and send.man for those not completely up on
1101 SASL terminology. "SASL encryption layers are not supported for
1102 SMTP" means that encryption is supported for the authentication
1103 but not for the subsequent data stream.
1105 Sat Jul 8 01:36:19 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
1107 * Applied Ken Hornstein <kenh@cmf.nrl.navy.mil>'s patches
1108 implementing SASL support for POP3 and SMTP. If nmh is compiled
1109 with SASL support, using the -sasl switch on the inc, msgchk,
1110 post, and send commands will enable authentication encryption for
1111 SMTP, and both authentication and data stream encryption for POP3.
1113 Sat Jun 10 18:37:59 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1115 * Merged mts/sendmail functionality into mts/smtp; switching between
1116 smtp and sendmail delivery method is now controlled by mts.conf.
1118 * If tsort cannot deal with loops, in addition to defining tsort as
1119 cat, also define lorder as echo.
1121 * Removed uip/popi.c from list of sources.
1123 Thu Jun 08 19:36:57 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1125 * New dtimep.lex didn't parse day names properly. Fixed. Also
1126 clarified ambiguous comments preceding day_map[] array (from old
1127 dtimep.lex) that probably led to the erroneous cp++ being added.
1129 Wed Jun 7 20:52:33 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1131 * Added one more mkstemp invocation to uip/spost.c (which was in a
1134 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to clean up permissions handling
1135 and error handling in uip/inc.c.
1137 Mon Jun 5 22:10:07 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1139 * Use cat instead of tsort if tsort cannot deal with loops in its
1140 input (which is the case for tsort from GNU textutils).
1142 Mon Jun 5 21:14:36 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1144 * If lockfile is present, and its dotlockfile program is setgid,
1145 inc does not need to be setgid.
1147 Sun Jun 4 21:35:40 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1149 * Added autoconf test for Miquel van Smoorenburg's liblockfile
1150 library, as found on Debian systems.
1152 * Added liblockfile support to sbr/lock_file.c.
1154 Wed May 31 7:19:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1156 * Fixed up dtimep.lex a bit. Added back memory options for AIX to
1157 increase available memory. Took out %option noyywrap, which
1158 wasn't understood by AT&T lex, as well as the -i
1159 case-insensitivity flag.
1161 Wed May 31 07:40:45 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1163 * Added a lint target to the Makefiles and a check in autoconf
1164 to determine whether lint or lclint exists on the system.
1166 Fri May 30 19:21:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1168 * etc/Makefile.in was incorrectly installing mts.conf.in and
1169 sendfiles.in -- fixed. Generated sendfiles script was not a
1170 dependency of the `all' target, and was incorrectly included in
1171 the distribution. Changed the suffix for the backed-up previous
1172 versions of the etc files from the ambiguous .old to .prev. Added
1173 call to diff -- only keep the .prev files around if different from
1174 the newly-installed versions (intentionally didn't redirect output
1175 to /dev/null so you'll notice when your changed versions are
1176 getting moved aside).
1178 * INSTALL never documented the etc/*.old thing. Documented the
1179 new etc/*.prev thing (including a note to watch for diff output).
1181 * Applied Alec Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu>'s dropsbr.c patch:
1183 In the map_write routine, a call is made to map_open and this
1184 call is supposed to set the "clear" variable to 0 or 1,
1185 depending on whether the map file is empty or not. In
1186 mh6.8.3, this worked because map_open would set "clear" by
1187 calling the mbx_Xopen routine. In nmh, the code for mbx_Xopen
1188 was merged into mbx_open, but the interface for mbx_open
1189 doesn't support the clear variable, so that functionality was
1190 lost. The map_open interface still contains "int *clear" in
1191 the prototype, but never sets it.
1193 My patch eliminates "clear" from the map_open interface (I
1194 checked to make sure that map_write is the only client of
1195 map_open). Furthermore, my patch also sets the "clear"
1196 variable properly at the beginning of map_write by calling
1197 fstat(). This eliminates the bug in that the value of "clear"
1198 being used later in the routine was just stack garbage.
1200 Having a bad value of clear causes this next bug to be
1201 triggered: The fp file pointer was being opened with fdopen,
1202 but in two of the three switch cases it wasn't being closed.
1203 In certain cases, this was causing packf to run out of file
1204 descriptors if you attempted to pack a large folder.
1206 Mon May 29 7:48:15 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1208 * Moved the date parsing routines from zotnet/tws to sbr/ (and
1209 tws.h to h/). Updated all source files to reflect to new location
1212 * Rewrote dparsetime (in dtimep.lex -> dtimep.c) to replace the
1213 old zotnet/tws/dtimep.c, dtimep.lex, lexstring.c, lexedit.c, and
1214 dtimep.c-lexed. It should now work with flex (although untested
1215 with lex), and requires no sed-ing. For now, I have the lexed
1216 version in the distribution, so that end-users don't need to worry
1217 about running it through flex/lex. I have not added back support
1218 for guessing the time zone when it's not specified.
1220 Sun May 28 17:44:15 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1222 * Added autoconf check for getutent().
1224 * Changed uip/rcvtty.c and uip/slocal.c to use getutent() and
1225 friends. Since I can only check on Linux, please check if
1226 this works on other systems.
1228 Sun May 28 14:58:49 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1230 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to uip/scansbr.c for more
1231 checks for write failures.
1233 * Unlink temporary file properly in uip/rcvtty.c.
1235 * Moved viamail from bindir to libdir.
1237 * Changed sendfiles into sendfiles.in, so that path to viamail
1240 * Added gzip support to sendfiles.
1242 * Added References header to replcomps and replgroupcomps.
1244 Sun May 28 14:39:31 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1246 * Fixed m_getfld bug which caused segmentation faults when
1247 incorporating messages which ended in multiple linefeeds crossing
1250 Fri May 26 13:21:59 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1252 * msh has been unable to show MIME messages ever since 1.0. Alec
1253 Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu> tracked down the problem to the
1254 -show flag being passed to mhshow. mhshow is equivalent to the
1255 old mhn -show, so we don't need the -show anymore. Removed it.
1257 Fri May 12 02:51:21 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1259 * zotnet/bboards is not longer built by default. Goal is to move
1260 the assorted functions in zotnet into sbr or some more logical
1263 * Moved zotnet/mf to sbr, and changed mf.h references accordingly,
1264 as well as Makefiles.
1266 Thu May 11 02:21:34 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1268 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that both SRCS and OBJS aren't
1269 seperately and redundantly defined, but so that OBJS is a
1270 pattern-substituted version of SRCS with suffix .c -> .o. This
1271 should make maintainability easier.
1273 * Added section to MACHINES indicating what platforms nmh is known
1274 to compile and work on, just to give users peace of mind, or
1275 something. This is by no means complete or exhaustive, so add
1276 whatever you know works.
1278 Tue May 09 20:38:04 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1280 * Alphabetized Shantonu's $pop_kinds output on configure's "pop is
1281 enabled" line. If POP3 is the only kind of POP enabled, say so,
1282 rather than just saying "yes" (which is ambiguous).
1284 * Fixed four warnings in Shantonu's new getpass.c. Needed to
1285 #include <stdlib.h> for calloc(), <unistd.h> for ttyname(), and
1286 "h/mh.h" for adios(). Also changed ch from char to int to get rid
1287 of "comparison is always 1 due to limited range of data type" on EOF.
1289 * Added steps to README.developers saying to change the version
1290 number to X.Y.Z+dev. Did a little rearranging and changed the FTP
1291 dir from /home/ftp to /var/ftp to reflect Doug's new machine.
1293 * Changed configure.in to use gcc -Wall even without
1294 --enable-debug, to prevent developers compiling optimized from
1295 introducing warnings, and to give end-users a warm, fuzzy feeling
1296 as they (hopefully) see no warnings come out (except perhaps on
1297 the lex output file) even with -Wall.
1299 * Renamed getpass() to nmh_getpass() since the prototype for
1300 getpass() varies from OS to OS, and we want to _always_ use our
1301 version of the function. Fixed all the callers to use
1302 nmh_getpass() and added it to prototypes.h. Semi-arbitrarily
1303 upped MAX_PASSWORD_LEN from 128 to 256. buf was being calloc()'d
1304 and the memory leaked -- should have just been declared as static
1305 char array. Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the
1306 copyright message, as this version has been changed significantly
1307 from the BSD version.
1309 * Added "nmh-local functions to use in preference to OS versions"
1310 section to README.developers (currently just says to use
1311 nmh_getpass() instead of system getpass()).
1313 * Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the copyright message
1314 in ruserpass.c also.
1316 * Added mts.conf.5 page per Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s
1319 This happens on solaris:
1322 windex entry incorrect: mts.conf(5) not found.
1323 No manual entry for mts.conf.
1327 % echo ".so man5/mh-tailor.5" > mts.conf.5
1329 done in the man5 directory. We need to add 'mts.conf.5' as a
1330 reference sourcing mh-tailor.5.
1332 Mon May 08 23:51:55 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1334 * Doug informed me that the way I had restored the "lost" version
1335 histories was wrong, because `cvs checkout's of old versions of
1336 nmh wouldn't work properly. It occurs to me that this could be
1337 fixed by simply deleting those tags in the new-location *,v files,
1338 but oh well. I'm putting everything back to the way Doug
1339 originally had it. To get the old version history for a file that
1340 used to be in the top directory, you'll need to "blindly" do a
1341 `cvs log' there (even though you won't have a local copy of the
1342 file in that directory). `cvs diff' will no longer be able to
1343 diff pre-move versions vs. post-move versions -- you'll have to do
1344 a lot of manual gyrations with `cvs checkout' and then use `diff'.
1346 * I had alphabetized the --configure options in the --help output
1347 awhile back, but Shantonu added --enable-apop just under
1348 --enable-pop. Put it in alphabetical order and clarified what
1349 --enable-apop does vs. --enable-pop and --with-krb4. Also changed
1350 --with-mts help line from "mail transport agent" to "mail
1351 transport agent/service" so the 's' in "mts" doesn't seem to come
1354 * Added two steps to "releasing nmh" in README.developers. After
1355 making the tarball, it's a good idea to diff the tree vs. the CVS
1356 tree to make sure no files got left out, and then to chown the
1357 files so that they're owned by root, preventing a Trojaning attack
1358 by a malicious remote user with a UID matching yours.
1360 * Changed DIFFERENCES to say that RPOP is not currently supported
1361 rather than implying it by saying that APOP, KPOP, and POP[3] are.
1363 Sun May 07 18:16:43 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1365 * Imported NetBSD version of getpass() and made extensive
1366 revisions for compatibility with programs that pipe the password
1367 to stdin, such as exmh.
1369 * Removed tests for system ruserpass() which sometimes gave
1370 phantom positive results. Also, bext to use internal functions if
1371 we ever want to change .netrc format to something else, or access
1374 Sat May 06 08:28:09 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1376 * Restored lost version histories for those moved files by doing a
1377 manual `mv' in the CVSROOT on mhost. CVS badly needs a `cvs mv'
1378 command so that you can move files (without having physical access
1379 to the CVSROOT) without losing versioning. Put MACHINES back at
1380 the top level as it needs to be read before building. Fixed DIST
1381 variable in {.,docs}/Makefile.in to reflect that and to add
1382 missing entry for "INSTALL" file.
1384 Sat May 06 13:13:07 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1386 * Re-cleaned up nmh documentation (by moving things to docs
1387 subdir) and modified Makefile & configure.in to handle the change.
1389 Mon Apr 17 21:28:40 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1391 * Scott Blachowicz pointed out that the configure --help output
1392 for --enable-masquerade was misleading. Clarified.
1394 Mon Apr 17 19:01:00 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1396 * APOP support can be compiled in to inc and msgchk using
1399 * To access an APOP host, specify -apop on the command line
1400 along with any -host or -user option.
1402 Fri Apr 14 23:10:44 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1404 * Upped the version number to 1.0.4+dev until the next nmh release.
1406 * Added a "releasing nmh" section to README.developers, while the
1407 process was fresh in my mind.
1409 Fri Apr 14 18:21:34 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1411 * Added new files README.developers, ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6, and
1412 ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html to DIST target in Makefile.in.
1414 * Released nmh-1.0.4.
1416 Tue Apr 11 21:37:03 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1418 * Applied Brian Campbell <bacam@tardis.ed.ac.uk>'s mhn.defaults.sh
1421 It appears that there shouldn't be quotes around the %s in the
1422 iso-8859-1 charset entry; xterm passes the remaining arguments
1423 to the program, quoting them means that xterm thinks they're
1424 part of the program's name.
1426 This %s isn't the same as the "Insert content subtype" one from
1427 mhshow-show-* -- it doesn't come from MIME headers and is safe not
1430 Sun Apr 09 13:03:59 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1432 * added check in fmt_compile() to handle a single-character
1433 format string. fmt_compile() depends on having an array of
1434 format characters with an empty item at the end. A
1435 single-character format would cause programs using this
1436 function to segfault because the algorithm used to decide on
1437 the length of the array mistakenly created a single-item array
1438 when the format string was one character. This eventually
1439 caused problems when the program attempted to test item+1
1442 Thu Apr 06 21:53:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1444 * Richard Coleman threw out a lot of old MH-specific files in nmh.
1445 Much of the stuff, indeed, is not worth saving, but there are
1446 nuggets that are very worthwhile, and should probably be added
1447 back in. Most important, IMHO, are the MH change logs, as they
1448 can help answer questions like "Why is this code like this?" or
1449 "How long has this been broken?" or "What was this ever used for?"
1451 I've added a new file to the nmh tree called
1452 ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6. It's cobbled together from the
1453 mh-6.8.4/papers/mh*/MHCHANGES files. I've re-ordered the entries
1454 to go from newest at the top to oldest at the bottom to match the
1455 ChangeLog convention. Unfortunately there are no change logs for
1456 versions of MH prior to 3 in the MH tar files available at
1457 <ftp://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/mh>. Also, it appears to me that there
1458 are MH-6.6 changes that aren't documented in the logs.
1460 I've also added ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html. This is
1461 based on mh-6.8.4/papers/changes/mh-changes.ms. The nroff format
1462 and its "catman"-type output are a pain to deal with, but I was
1463 loath to throw away the formatting, so I converted the file to
1464 HTML. The only actual markup in the body are the "<B>" and "<U>"
1465 tags, and "<" and ">" instead of '<' and '>', so it's quite
1466 doable to view the file in plain ASCII mode as well. Note that
1467 some of the changes this file documents as having been made in
1468 MH-6.8.4 may not be present in nmh -- Richard started with 6.8.3
1469 and later put in certain 6.8.4 stuff.
1471 Wed Apr 05 21:09:28 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1473 * Applied Eric Schnoebelen <eric@cirr.com>'s mhshowsbr.c patch
1474 fixing apparent bugs in Dan Winship's new security quoting code:
1476 Since upgrading, I've been getting the following errors
1477 while attempting to process some MIME messages:
1479 (1) Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
1484 (2) line 1/10 (END)Segmentation fault (core dumped)
1486 (2) appears to be due to the testing of an unset pointer in
1487 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux(). (1) appears to be caused by
1488 mis-quoting a filename being handed to the shell in
1489 mhshowsbr.c:show_content_aux().
1491 Resolving the pointer reference issue in
1492 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux() turned up a similar mis-quoting
1493 problem in the routine.
1495 Tue Mar 28 16:17:39 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1497 * Applied Todd.Miller@courtesan.com's patch to dropsbr.c to
1498 prevent core dumping on packf. Here's the note from his message:
1500 Since sizeof(buffer) == sizeof(tmpbuffer) packf will dump
1501 core on a file w/o a From line with a line >= BUFSIZ.
1502 I noticed this because I had a junk file in my mail
1505 Fri Mar 17 11:59:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1507 * wesley.craig@umich.edu did not document his previous KPOP patch,
1508 so I did so, and asked him to check what I wrote. Unfortunately
1509 he didn't notice my misunderstanding of his patch. I wrote that
1510 if you #define POPSERVICE "kpop", inc and msgchk will use KPOP
1511 exclusively, but if you leave it as "pop3", you can use Wesley's
1512 new -kpop switch on a given invocation. Instead, however, -kpop
1513 turned out to be necessary on every invocation, and a KPOP user
1514 complained. Applied Wesley's new patch, which makes things work
1515 like I thought his original patch did. After that, did one more
1516 clarifying pass to the documentation in inc.man and msgchk.man.
1518 Wed Mar 15 18:45:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1520 * When I fixed the long-standing makedir() bugs in January, I had
1521 the code call strtoul(..., 0), which I believed to be safe as all
1522 modes specified as ASCII constants in the nmh code started with a
1523 leading zero (signifying octal), which I did as it would work if
1524 internal constants were ever changed to hex. Unfortunately I was
1525 unaware of the "Folder-Protect:" .mh_profile entry, which
1526 mh-profile.man documents as an octal-only constant, with no
1527 leading zero required. I've changed the strtoul() call to an
1528 atooi() call and removed the misleading leading zeroes on the
1529 ASCII octal constants in the code and man pages. Also changed the
1530 "Folder-Protect:" example in the man page to something more
1531 interesting than a duplication of the default.
1533 * When I added my --enable-masquerade option, you'll note that I
1534 didn't make it --enable-nmh-masquerade. I find the --enable-nmh-*
1535 options too wordy and I'm not sure why Richard went that route.
1536 I've renamed them to just --enable-*, but the old versions will
1537 still work as well (they just aren't advertised).
1539 * Added a line to the "nmh configuration" output saying whether
1542 * Added a new README.developers file. From the file:
1544 This file is intended to provide a few tips for anyone doing
1545 development on nmh. Developers who learn things "the hard
1546 way" about the nmh codebase (as opposed to local info best
1547 encoded in a comment) are encouraged to share their wisdom
1550 Currently the topics are "autoconf files" and "directory structure".
1552 Tue Mar 14 12:41:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1554 * Applied, after some finessing,
1555 Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s --with-smtpservers patch:
1557 Here's a patch that allows you to add
1559 --with-smtpservers=<some.host.name>
1561 to the ./configure command line to set the "servers: " line in
1562 etc/mts.conf. Around here, we use "mailhost" so that all
1563 machines in the current domain just talk to a central machine
1564 and nothing else runs an MTA. Now, I can use
1566 --with-smtpservers=mailhost
1568 instead of having to remember to fix this by hand (and often
1569 forgetting to do so!).
1571 * Inspired by Simon's patch, added an --enable-masquerade option
1572 to configure. It will set the "masquerade:" line of mts.conf.
1573 You may specify a subset of the three types of masquerading, like
1574 --enable-masquerade="draft_from mmailid", or leave off explicit
1575 arguments to enable all three types.
1577 * Alphabetized the --enable and --with options in configure.in and
1578 INSTALL and added documentation of the two new options to the latter.
1580 * Added new dependency for mts.conf: Makefile. If this isn't
1581 done, then when you reconfigure nmh with new values for
1582 --enable-masquerade or --with-smtpservers, you'll fail to get an
1583 updated copy of mts.conf.
1585 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtimep.lex patch:
1587 It seems that some MUA's didn't handle y2k very well - ELM
1588 seems to be one of them, and Ultrix's DXmail (based on MH!).
1589 I've got a few emails this month that look like:
1591 575 Jan 00 Xxxxxx Xxxx 3603 ...
1593 22+ Jan 00 Xxx Xxxxx 1771 ...
1595 The first has "15 Jan 100" as the date and the second has
1596 "19 Jan 00" as the date. The following works around this so
1597 that scan, show, sortm, etc work ok.
1599 I put Simon's patch under the control of a new #define called
1600 FIX_NON_Y2K_COMPLIANT_MUA_DATES. There's some commentary in
1601 acconfig.h about when you might not want to #define it.
1603 * Created new dtimep.c-lexed with Simon's change using dtimep.lex
1604 lexed on Solaris 2.6. Added missing dependency in
1605 zotnet/tws/Makefile.in for dtimep.c: dtimep.c-lexed.
1607 * Added scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD format files.
1609 Mon Mar 13 21:32:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1611 * Applied Sullivan N. Beck <sbeck@cise.ufl.edu>'s mhshow-suffix patch:
1613 With the patch below, you can add lines like:
1615 mhshow-suffix-application/msword: .doc
1616 mhshow-suffix-application/PostScript: .ps
1618 to the mhn.defaults file to append the given suffix to a
1619 scratch file. This allows applications which require a
1620 certain suffix to run properly.
1622 * Removed -force_html from lynx entry in mhn.defaults.sh (I
1623 believe older versions of lynx lack that option) and added
1624 "mhshow-suffix-text/html: .html".
1626 * Modified username_extension masquerading to only use the
1627 extended address on generated [Resent-]From: lines and SMTP
1628 envelope From:. With Neil's original implementation, nmh's global
1629 idea of the username was changed, which would result in inc lying
1630 and saying you had no new mail because it was looking for a
1631 mailbox called, for instance, "dan-nmh" (where username was "dan"
1632 and $USERNAME_EXTENSION was "-nmh").
1634 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtime.c patch:
1636 There's a wrap-around problem that affects the implementation
1637 of Zeller's congruence in dtime.c. This causes the day-of-week
1638 calculations to fail for dates after Feb 29, 2000 (probably up
1639 until some year far in the future).
1641 Mon Mar 06 12:20:20 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1643 * Applied Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s msh.c patch:
1645 I finally tracked down the problem in msh that was causing
1646 errors whenever I tried to examine a 'mmdf' style mailbox.
1648 It turns out that not enough memory was being allocated with
1649 calloc(), causing memory pointers to be overwritten and
1652 Fri Mar 03 16:07:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1654 * Changed the new "plussed_user" option to mts.conf's
1655 "masquerade:" to "username_extension" after getting feedback from
1656 qmail users, who use '-' as a separator rather than '+'. Removed
1657 checking of $USERPLUS variable. Now check $USERNAME_EXTENSION,
1658 which needs to include the appropriate separator for your MTA
1659 ('-', '+', or whatever) as its first character.
1661 Thu Mar 02 23:04:30 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1663 * Added a new "boolean" type to mh.h and TRUE and FALSE constants.
1665 * Added a note to DIFFERENCES stating that it's out-of-date
1666 (Richard was the last one to update it) and that we should
1667 consider only documenting incompatibilities with MH there.
1669 * Implemented (and documented) a third kind of username
1670 masquerading: "plussed user" masquerading. This one was suggested
1671 by Neil Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>. It's based on sendmail's
1672 "plussed user" feature, where mail sent to <user>+<string> will be
1673 delivered to <user>. When it's enabled, it's controlled by the
1674 $USERPLUS environment variable. How is it enabled? Well, that
1677 * Renamed the "mmailid:" setting in mts.conf to "masquerade:", and
1678 changed it so that rather than being a boolean, it can be set to
1679 any combination of the three values "draft_from", "mmailid", and
1680 "plussed_user". Thus it is now possible to enable the three types
1681 of masquerading individually.
1683 * Fixed a bug with "mmailid" masquerading (dating back to MH?)
1684 where if it was turned on, ','s would no longer be considered
1685 GECOS field delimiters.
1687 Wed Mar 01 23:30:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1689 * Changed the GECOS-field '&' translation behavior to be
1690 controlled by the BSD42 #define rather than GCOS_HACK, since it's
1691 apparently always appropriate on OSes where BSD42 is #defined, and
1692 never appropriate on any other OSes. Thanks to Kimmo Suominen for
1693 responding to my "What is this code here for?" comment in mts.c
1694 and explaining the feature.
1696 Mon Feb 28 21:50:29 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1698 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3+dev (ideally this should be
1699 done by whoever makes a release tar file, immediately after doing
1702 * Applied Paul Fox <pgf-spam@foxharp.boston.ma.us>'s scansbr.c
1703 patch, posted to comp.mail.mh, which he says prevents loss of mail
1704 when inc'ing into a full filesystem.
1706 * Changed "echo > stamp-h.in" in Makefile.in to "date > stamp-h.in"
1707 so that stamp-h.in will be different each time configure.in and
1708 related files are changed, making it easier to check it in (which
1709 is necessary to prevent unnecessary autoconf calls).
1711 * My declaration of initgroups() in slocal.c to eliminate the "no
1712 prototype" warning wasn't portable (FreeBSD 3.[23] choked). Now
1713 use AC_EGREP_HEADER to see where initgroups() is declared, if
1716 Sun Feb 20 12:17:15 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1718 * Fix security hole in mhshowsbr.c which allowed untrusted shell
1719 code to be executed.
1721 * Released nmh 1.0.3.
1723 Thu Feb 10 10:54:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1725 * Oops. %-escapes on mhstore lines in mhn.defaults.sh should not
1726 be surrounded by single quotes, as a shell is not spawned when
1727 just saving files, and the filenames will end up with literal
1728 quotes embedded in them.
1730 Fri Feb 04 12:29:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1732 * Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
1733 got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
1734 the -help output. One theory is that they were making reference
1735 to the fact that clearly you know about the -help option since
1736 you're currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea
1737 to overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
1738 supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
1741 The other theory is that because you can say something like
1742 "mhstore -" and get "mhstore: - ambiguous. It matches" followed
1743 by the same list of switches you get with -help, they were saying
1744 you can "sorta" abbreviate "-help" as "-". You don't get the
1745 "Usage:" string, though, so it's not really the same thing.
1747 Thu Feb 03 17:52:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1749 * Applied wesley.craig@umich.edu's KPOP patches. According to him:
1751 The following patch fixes a problem with requesting a
1752 service key for a machine that has multiple 'A' records. It
1753 also makes "-kpop" a command line option, for users who
1754 would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".
1756 Did no testing of the new features, as I don't have access to a
1759 * Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
1761 * Modified INSTALL and config.h.in to reflect the new -kpop feature.
1763 Fri Jan 28 17:39:24 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1765 * All %-escapes in mhn.defaults that actually expand to something
1766 should be surrounded by single quotes. Added quotes to the ones
1767 in mhn.defaults.sh that were missing them.
1769 * Added check for lynx to write mhshow-show-text/html line in
1772 Thu Jan 27 12:22:25 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1774 * makedir() had multiple bugs dating back to MH. An octal
1775 constant was apparently being interpreted as decimal, resulting in
1776 directories with no user read or execute permissions, making
1777 nested directory creation fail. And there wasn't even an
1778 _attempt_ to set desired permissions (e.g. from "Folder-Protect:"
1779 in .mh_profile) on the outer directories of a nested directory.
1781 * A second `make install' would always fail because the check for
1782 whether mh_profile.5 existed was written incorrectly.
1784 Wed Jan 26 02:22:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1786 * Added documentation on both types of masquerading to post's man
1789 Tue Jan 25 22:58:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1791 * Doug's portability fix of my setgid inc autodetection had a
1792 caching bug -- if you re-ran configure, uip/Makefile would be
1793 corrupted, and installation would bomb out on OSes where inc needs
1796 * Implemented a new kind of email address masquerading. Usually,
1797 when a user writes a custom "From:" header in a draft, nmh uses it
1798 rather than generating one. However, the user's true address is
1799 used in the SMTP envelope "From:" and is revealed in the "Sender:"
1800 header. Now, when mmailid is set to non-zero, the envelope
1801 "From:" uses the address specified in the draft "From:" header,
1802 and there is no "Sender:" header. This is useful when sending on
1803 behalf of a remote POP3 account or when remote mail robots
1804 incorrectly use the envelope "From:" in preference to the body
1805 "From:". This processing has only been implemented for post, not
1806 for the undocumented spost (which was already missing some "From:"
1807 processing that post has).
1809 Mon Jan 24 22:26:06 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1811 * Got rid of the rest of the gcc -Wall warnings that I didn't have
1812 time for on 1999-07-15 (and, it would seem, some new ones people
1813 introduced since then). The primary ones were the warnings that
1814 default prototypes were being used for [v]snprintf() and
1815 str[n]casecmp(). As of right now, there are _no_ compilation
1816 warnings except on dtimep.c-lexed (at least under AIX 4.1.5 and
1819 Sun Jan 2 23:42:18 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1821 * Move mhtest from bindir to libdir.
1823 * Move sendfiles from libdir to bindir.
1825 * Updated sendfiles manpage to reflect this change.
1827 * Added documentation for -build and -file switches to repl and
1828 forw manpages (patch from Peter Maydell).
1830 * Fixed interaction between specifying -cc in profile and -group on
1833 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1835 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
1836 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
1837 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
1840 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1842 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
1843 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
1844 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
1845 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
1846 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
1847 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).
1849 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1851 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
1853 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1855 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
1856 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
1857 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
1858 caught again. This works for now.
1860 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
1862 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1864 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
1865 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
1867 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1869 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
1870 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
1872 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
1874 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
1876 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1878 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
1879 changes. Both need more cleanup.
1881 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1883 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
1884 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
1885 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
1886 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
1887 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
1890 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1892 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
1893 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
1894 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
1896 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
1897 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
1900 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1902 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
1903 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
1904 to a directory on another device with more free space.
1906 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1908 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
1909 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
1911 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1913 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
1916 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
1917 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
1919 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
1920 macros, regardless of platform.
1922 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
1923 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1925 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
1926 with x-conversions=gzip.
1928 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1930 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
1933 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
1934 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
1935 implicit definition of ioctl().
1937 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
1938 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
1939 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
1940 want to mess with them.
1942 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1944 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
1945 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
1947 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
1948 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
1950 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
1951 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
1952 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
1954 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
1955 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
1956 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
1958 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
1959 function initgroups.
1961 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
1964 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
1965 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
1968 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
1969 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
1972 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
1973 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
1977 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1979 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
1980 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
1981 preventing compilation on at least linux.
1983 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
1984 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
1986 Thu Sep 09 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1988 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
1990 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
1991 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
1992 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
1993 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
1995 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
1996 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
1998 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
2000 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
2002 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
2004 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
2005 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
2007 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
2009 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
2010 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
2012 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
2013 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
2014 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
2015 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
2017 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
2018 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
2020 Sat Jun 09 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2022 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
2023 substitute it for mktemp if available.
2025 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2027 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
2028 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
2031 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
2033 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
2035 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
2037 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
2038 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
2040 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
2041 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
2042 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
2044 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
2045 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
2046 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
2048 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
2049 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
2050 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
2052 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
2053 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
2056 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
2057 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
2059 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
2060 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
2062 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
2063 <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
2065 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
2066 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
2067 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
2069 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
2070 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
2072 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
2073 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
2074 <elleron@servtech.com>.
2076 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
2077 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
2080 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
2081 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
2083 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
2084 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
2085 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
2086 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
2088 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
2089 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
2091 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2095 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
2096 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
2097 would not be changed.
2099 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
2100 one from the Apache web server.
2102 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
2103 (this should have been done a long time ago).
2105 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
2106 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
2107 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
2109 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
2111 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
2113 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
2114 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
2117 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
2118 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
2119 removes a bad race condition.
2121 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
2124 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
2125 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
2126 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
2128 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
2129 sequence information.
2131 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
2132 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
2134 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
2137 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
2140 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
2142 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
2143 interpret 034 as octal.
2145 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
2147 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
2148 mhstore, and mhbuild.
2150 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
2151 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
2153 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
2154 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
2156 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
2157 in the c_cefile structure when building.
2159 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
2160 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
2162 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
2163 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
2164 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
2166 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
2167 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
2168 and mhshow. Updated man pages
2170 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
2172 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
2174 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
2175 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
2178 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
2180 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
2181 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
2183 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
2184 header field information.
2186 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
2187 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
2189 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
2190 values when parsing a content.
2192 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
2193 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
2195 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
2196 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
2198 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
2199 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
2201 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
2202 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
2204 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
2206 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
2208 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
2210 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
2212 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
2213 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
2216 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
2217 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
2219 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
2220 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
2221 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
2222 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
2223 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
2224 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
2227 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
2229 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
2230 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
2231 buffer length checks for this parameter.
2233 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
2234 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
2236 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
2238 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
2239 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
2240 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
2241 of the limits on the length of command lines.
2243 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
2244 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
2247 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
2248 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
2249 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
2250 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
2253 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2255 * Released nmh-0.27.
2257 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
2258 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
2260 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
2261 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
2262 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
2263 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
2266 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
2267 mhbuild returns an error.
2269 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
2270 rename the draft file.
2272 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
2273 use a global variable.
2275 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
2276 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
2278 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
2279 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
2281 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
2282 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
2283 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
2285 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
2286 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
2288 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
2289 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
2292 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
2293 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
2296 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
2297 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
2299 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
2300 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
2301 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
2303 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
2304 to new function output_content_folder.
2306 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
2307 new function output_content_file.
2309 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
2310 to new function parse_format_string.
2312 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
2313 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
2314 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
2315 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
2317 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
2318 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
2319 message/external file from ftp.
2321 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
2322 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
2323 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
2325 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
2326 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
2329 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
2332 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
2333 new file mhstoresbr.c
2335 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
2338 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
2339 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
2341 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
2342 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
2344 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
2345 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
2346 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
2348 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
2350 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
2352 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
2353 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
2356 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
2357 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
2359 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
2362 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
2364 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2366 * Released nmh-0.26.
2368 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
2369 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
2370 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
2371 is still the same (dashstuffing).
2373 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
2374 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
2375 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
2376 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
2377 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
2379 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
2380 But it is not on by default.
2382 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
2383 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
2385 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
2387 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
2389 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
2391 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
2393 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
2394 number of the "cur" message when packing.
2396 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2398 * Released nmh-0.25.
2400 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
2401 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
2402 uses the original name of the library.
2404 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
2405 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
2408 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
2409 list_content and list_debug.
2411 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
2413 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
2414 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.
2416 1998-02-27 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2418 * Released nmh-0.24.
2420 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
2422 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
2423 are given, that order doesn't matter.
2425 * Fix bug in seq_list.c when realloc'ing for
2426 large sequence line.
2428 1998-02-23 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2430 * Released nmh-0.23.
2432 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
2434 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
2435 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan
2436 content, decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary
2437 string). I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
2439 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
2440 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
2443 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
2445 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
2447 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
2449 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
2450 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
2452 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
2453 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.
2455 * Add note to MACHINES file that on Linux, configure
2456 doesn't find the functions sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
2458 * Fix configuration for machines that don't have (or find)
2459 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
2461 1998-02-11 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2463 * Released nmh-0.22.
2465 * Add a configure check for sigsetjmp. Add some conditional
2466 #define's in h/signals.h in case it's not found.
2468 * Added additional notes about -auto switch in mhn man page.
2470 * Added note about MM_CHARSET environment variable to
2471 mh-profile(5) man page.
2473 * Fix signal problem in mhn.c (change setjmp/longjmp to
2474 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp).
2476 1998-02-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2478 * Released nmh-0.22-pre1.
2480 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
2481 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
2483 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
2485 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
2486 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
2487 entry point for parsing MIME files.
2489 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
2490 source message on the standard input.
2492 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
2494 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
2495 rather than -rfc934mode.
2497 * Fix mhbuild, so that Content-Description and RFC-822 comments
2498 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
2501 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
2502 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).
2504 * Restore HP specific code to zotnet/tws/lexstring.c. Apparently
2507 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2509 * Released nmh-0.21.
2511 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
2512 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.
2514 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what transfer
2517 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what character set
2518 to use for text contents.
2520 * Removed old hpux specific code from zotnet/tws/lexstring.c
2522 1998-02-02 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2524 * Released nmh-0.21-pre2.
2526 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
2528 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
2529 header fields as per RFC-2047.
2531 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
2532 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
2533 spaces between encoded word are.
2535 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
2537 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
2538 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
2540 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
2541 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
2542 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
2544 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
2546 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
2547 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
2549 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.
2551 * Added support for %(decode) to fmtdump.c.
2553 * check_charset() now accepts US-ASCII as a subset of any
2554 ISO-8859-X character set.
2556 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
2559 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
2560 permissions, not write permissions.
2562 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
2563 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
2565 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
2568 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2570 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
2572 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
2573 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
2575 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
2576 message contains valid character set.
2578 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
2579 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
2581 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
2582 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
2584 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
2585 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
2586 between an encoded word and normal text.
2588 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
2589 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
2591 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
2592 as a RFC-2047 header field.
2594 * The command install-mh now recognizes the switches -version
2597 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
2598 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
2601 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
2602 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
2604 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
2605 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
2607 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
2609 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2611 * Released nmh-0.20.
2613 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
2615 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.
2617 * Changed the default format file for mhl (mhl.format) to
2618 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
2619 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
2621 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
2622 and the To: line was missing.
2624 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
2626 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2628 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
2630 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
2631 watch the POP transaction.
2633 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
2634 first, and use it if available.
2636 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
2637 first, and use it if available.
2639 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2641 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
2643 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
2644 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
2645 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
2648 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
2649 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
2650 returns the state FLDPLUS.
2652 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
2653 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
2656 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
2658 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
2659 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
2661 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
2663 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
2664 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
2666 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
2667 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
2668 message to which you are replying.
2670 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
2671 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
2672 making group replies.
2674 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
2676 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2678 * Released nmh-0.19.
2680 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
2681 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
2683 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
2684 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
2685 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
2686 to the end of the man page.
2688 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
2689 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
2690 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
2691 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
2692 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
2693 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
2695 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
2698 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
2699 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
2700 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
2702 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
2703 the next available number above the message number you wish
2706 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
2707 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
2709 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
2710 file sbr/seq_print.c
2712 * flist will now update the current folder.
2714 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
2715 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
2716 but now undocumented.
2718 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
2721 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
2722 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
2724 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
2726 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
2727 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
2729 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2731 * Released nmh-0.18.
2733 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
2734 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
2735 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
2737 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
2738 retains the public/private status of sequences.
2740 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
2741 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
2742 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
2743 previous public/private status.
2745 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
2748 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
2751 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
2752 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
2753 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
2755 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
2756 take option to determine whether it should get current
2757 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
2758 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
2760 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
2762 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
2763 wait for stopped processes.
2765 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
2766 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
2768 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2770 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
2772 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
2773 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
2775 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
2776 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
2778 * Change the way that memory for message status is
2779 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
2780 the folder/message structure. This required changing
2781 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
2783 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
2786 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
2789 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
2791 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
2792 the debugging output.
2794 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
2795 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
2797 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2799 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
2801 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
2802 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
2804 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
2806 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
2807 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
2808 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
2809 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
2810 in the given sequence.
2812 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
2813 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
2814 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
2815 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
2816 subdirectories of a given directory.
2818 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
2819 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
2820 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
2822 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
2823 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
2825 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
2827 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
2830 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
2831 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
2832 fields are now calculated at runtime.
2834 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
2835 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
2836 are calculated at runtime.
2838 Sun Nov 30 19:14:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2840 * Released nmh-0.18-pre2.
2842 * Add paragraph to man page for install-mh and to INSTALL file
2843 about checking for global mh.profile.
2845 * Renamed m_find() to context_find().
2846 Renamed m_replace() to context_replace().
2847 Renamed m_delete() to context_del().
2848 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
2849 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
2850 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
2852 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
2853 adding message to folder itself.
2855 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
2856 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
2857 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
2860 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
2861 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
2864 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
2865 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
2866 is the same as the direct smtp code).
2868 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
2869 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
2871 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
2872 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
2873 code to use it yet).
2875 Thu Nov 13 18:42:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2877 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.
2879 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never
2880 called with a value larger than 30 mintues.
2882 * Fixed race condition in rmm and refile, so that
2883 context is updated before external rmmproc is called.
2885 * Removed all the OVERHEAD code.
2887 * Move code to add message to folder from refile.c
2890 Fri Jul 25 19:39:29 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2892 * Did some rearranging of the internals of inc.c.
2894 * Make -inplace the default for anno, forw, dist, and repl.
2896 * Changed --enable-smtp to --with-mts={smtp,sendmail}
2898 * Created new directory mts/sendmail for direct sendmail
2899 interface (although it currently still uses SMTP).

2903 * Removed all the TTYD (terminal access daemon) code
2905 * Removed all the MF (uucp filtering) code.
2907 * Removed all the code for BERK.
2909 * Removed all the code for stand-alone delivery (MHMTS).
2911 * Split the file mts/sendmail/smail.c into sendmail.c and
2912 smtp.c. Changed the name of the directory to mts/smtp.
2914 * Changed autoconf to use @sysconfdir@ for location of
2915 configuration files.
2917 * Changed #define in mhn.c from FTP to BUILTIN_FTP.
2919 Mon Jul 21 03:22:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

2923 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
2925 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
2926 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
2928 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
2931 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
2932 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
2934 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
2935 number of refiled message.
2937 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
2939 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
2940 for return value of wait().
2942 * Change configure to also check /bin for "more".
2944 Sat Jul 12 00:02:23 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2946 * Released nmh-0.16.
2948 Mon Jun 23 20:13:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2950 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
2952 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
2953 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
2954 deal with binary messages, yet).
2956 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
2958 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
2960 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
2961 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
2962 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
2963 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
2964 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
2965 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
2967 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
2968 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
2970 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
2971 From MH-6.8.4 patch.
2973 * Fix double free of ctinfo in user_content when using
2974 #forw with single message. From John MacMillan (and
2977 * Changed -mhnproc switch for show, to -showmimeproc.
2979 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".
2981 * Added "mime" option to "whatnow", which calls the program
2982 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
2985 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
2988 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
2990 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
2991 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
2992 which used unsigned chars by default.
2994 Sat Jun 21 01:21:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2996 * Released nmh-0.15.
2998 * Added new form "scan.unseen" to distribution. It marks messages

3003 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
3005 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
3008 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
3009 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
3010 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
3012 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
3013 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
3015 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
3017 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
3018 they conflict with defines on AIX.
3020 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
3021 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
3022 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
3023 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
3025 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
3026 and put in own subroutine.
3028 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
3029 and put in own subroutine.
3031 * Moved code to remove messages from folder into own
3032 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and
3033 refile.c to use new routine.
3035 Fri May 16 06:09:31 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3037 * Renamed m_seqok to seq_nameok.
3039 * Changed m_setunseen, msh, mshcmds, flist, and scan to use
3042 * Changed m_seqflag to return the number of a sequence rather
3043 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
3044 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
3046 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
3049 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before
3050 adding message to sequence.
3052 * Renamed function m_setvis to m_setunseen, and renamed
3053 corresponding file in sbr.
3055 * Renamed function m_setseq to m_setprev, and renamed corresponding
3058 * Changed mark.c and pick.c to use m_seqaddsel and m_seqdelsel.
3060 * Added new function m_seqdelsel to m_seqdel.c, which deletes
3061 all selected messages from a sequence.
3063 * Added new function m_seqaddsel to m_seqadd.c, which adds all
3064 selected messages to a sequence.
3066 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,
3069 Thu May 15 00:53:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3071 * Renamed function pack_folder to m_packfolder, and moved it
3072 from uip/folder.c into its own file sbr/m_packfolder.c
3074 Wed May 14 23:38:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3076 * Changed function m_gmsg to m_readfolder. Renamed file

3093 * Added new options `-checkmime', `-nocheckmime', and `-mhnproc'
3094 to show. Restructured code to handle options to various
3095 `procs' better. Deprecated `-noshowproc' option and NOMHNPROC
3096 environment variable.
3098 * Added new man page `mh-draft' which documents the
3099 draft folder facility in nmh.
3101 * Renamed fmtsbr.h to fmt_scan.h. Renamed fmtcompile.h
3104 * split fmtsbr.c into fmt_scan.c and fmt_new.c. Renamed

3113 * Released nmh-0.13.
3115 * Changed mhpath so it doesn't abort if a message sequence
3116 such as "mhpath all" expands to more than 1000 messages.
3117 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
3118 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
3121 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
3122 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
3124 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3126 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if
3127 necessary. So `folders' can now handle more than 300 folders.
3129 Tue Apr 22 14:01:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3131 * Change configure to use a compile check to see if the tm struct
3132 has tm_gmtoff, rather than using egrep.

3147 * Replace the bit twiddling for SELECTED, UNSEEN, and
3148 mp->attrstats with macros.
3150 * If system doesn't have SIGEMT (like Linux), then use SIGTERM
3153 * Change fstat to stat in m_gmsg.c since Linux wants
3156 * Merge Linux patch sent in by Michel Oosterhof (original
3157 patch from bsa@kf8nh.wariat.org).
3159 * Document an undocumented MH feature. mhn -form mhl.null
3160 will suppress the display of the message header.
3162 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
3164 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c
3165 and mshcmds.c, rather than hard coding in /bin/cat.
3167 * Add mhnproc to the list of `procs' in mh-profile.man.
3169 * Add configure test for lorder and tsort commands.
3171 * Commented out the padding in the `msgs` struct in h/mh.h
3173 * Change m_gmsg.c to allocate elements to the `info' array by
3174 500 elements at a time (rather than MAXFOLDERS / 5).
3176 * Add note to man page for mhmail that zero length messages are
3177 not sent. Need to use -body "" to send empty messages.
3179 * zotnet/mts/mts.c : compare character with '\0', not NULL.
3181 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
3183 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
3184 folder/message structure when done with folder.
3186 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is
3187 defined even if message is missing "From " line.
3189 Mon Mar 31 03:37:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3191 * Released nmh-0.10.
3193 Sun Mar 30 21:46:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

3198 Thu Mar 20 03:21:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3200 * Reversed previous decision to retain "From " lines in slocal.
3201 The "From " line is now removed from all messages.
3203 * inc now saves the date from the "From " envelope in the
3204 Delivery-Date header for all messages.
3206 * sbr/m_getfld.c: Clean up processing of Return-Path and
3207 Delivery-Date from the "From " envelope.
3209 Mon Mar 17 19:03:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3211 * client.c: cast iaddr to int before comparing return value
3212 of inet_addr with NOTOK.
3214 Tue Mar 11 04:38:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3216 * Grep test for signal names was failing on some OS'es because

3221 * Released nmh-0.09.
3223 * Move config files and format files to *.old before installing.
3225 * Add configure check for killpg.

3237 Tue Mar 4 03:10:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3239 * ruserpass.c : removed conflicting prototypes.
3241 * rcvtty.c : Fixed rcvtty to obey terminal permissions granted
3242 by `mesg' command. Previously only worked on BSD machines.
3244 Mon Mar 3 00:18:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3246 * rcvtty.c : Changed to use #define UTMP_FILE (if exists) rather
3247 than hard coded "/etc/utmp".
3249 * Released nmh-0.08.
3251 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
3252 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of
3253 locking database itself.
3255 Thu Feb 27 05:28:09 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3257 * Added slocal action `mmdf' to deliver to a file in mmdf format.
3259 * Changed the slocal actions `file' and `>' to always deliver in
3260 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
3263 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
3264 rather than mmdf format.
3266 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
3267 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
3268 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
3269 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
3271 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
3273 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3275 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
3278 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
3279 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
3280 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
3282 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
3283 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
3284 rcvpack so you can choose the preferred format.
3286 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3288 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
3289 can still easily change this in config.h).
3291 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
3292 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
3293 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
3295 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3297 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather
3298 than tzset and external timezone variable.

3307 * Released nmh-0.07.
3309 Tue Feb 11 01:29:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3311 * Add check to configure, so that if ruserpass, or _ruserpass
3312 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
3314 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
3315 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
3318 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
3319 built-in FTP client in mhn.
3321 * Added configure check for ushort and ulong. Change code
3322 to use ushort/ulong rather than u_short/u_long.
3324 * A couple of small cleanups in locking code.
3326 * Added configure check for gmtoff element in struct tm.
3328 * Added configure check for tzset.
3330 Fri Feb 7 03:01:57 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3332 * Released nmh-0.06.
3334 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
3335 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
3337 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
3338 many such machines around anymore.
3340 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
3341 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
3343 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
3344 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
3346 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3348 * Check lex generated file in zotnet/tws and use
3349 pre-generated version if necessary.
3351 * Released nmh-0.05.
3353 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
3354 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
3355 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
3356 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
3358 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
3359 be linked in one pass.
3361 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3363 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
3364 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
3366 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3368 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
3370 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3372 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
3373 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
3374 become the current folder.
3376 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3378 * Released nmh-0.04.
3380 * Define ospeed and PC in termsbr.c is OS doesn't have
3383 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3385 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
3386 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
3387 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
3389 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3391 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
3392 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
3394 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3396 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
3397 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
3400 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
3401 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
3403 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3405 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
3406 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
3407 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
3408 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
3409 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
3410 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
3412 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3414 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
3415 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
3417 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
3418 a file (currently need to specify full path).
3420 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3422 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
3423 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
3425 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3427 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
3428 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
3429 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
3431 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3433 * Released nmh-0.03.
3435 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
3436 .mh_sequence file existed.
3438 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
3439 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
3441 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
3442 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
3445 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3447 * Changed flist option -unseen to -[no]all. Cleaned up
3450 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3452 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
3453 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
3454 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
3456 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3458 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
3459 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
3460 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
3462 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3464 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL
3465 and allocate its own buffer. Borrowed from zsh.
3467 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
3469 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3471 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
3472 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
3473 directory from where the source code is located.
3475 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3477 * Released nmh-0.02.
3479 Wed Jan 1 17:41:52 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3481 * Split mhook man page into man pages for rcvdist, rcvpack,
3484 Tue Dec 31 03:07:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3486 * Changed code to use strerror, rather than using sys_errlist
3487 and sys_nerr directly.
3489 Mon Dec 30 02:15:25 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3491 * -compat switch from install-mh removed.
3493 * Changed the default POP port from "pop" to "pop3".
3495 Sat Dec 28 13:25:05 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3497 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
3498 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
3499 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
3500 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
3501 rather than in script.
3503 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3505 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
3507 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with
3508 macro defined on Solaris.
3510 Thu Dec 26 02:50:15 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3512 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
3513 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
3515 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
3516 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
3517 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
3518 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
3521 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3523 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
3524 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.
3526 * Fixed configure test so that termcap variable ospeed is
3529 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3531 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
3533 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included
3534 in mhn.c. Changed md5 to use memset and memcpy.
3536 Fri Dec 20 02:29:37 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3538 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
3539 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
3541 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3543 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
3544 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
3545 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
3546 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
3547 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
3548 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
3550 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3552 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
3554 * Released nmh-0.01.
3556 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
3557 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
3558 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
3561 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3563 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
3566 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3568 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
3569 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
3571 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3573 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
3574 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
3575 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
3576 script to find_program.
3578 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3580 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
3581 speed up -recurse option.
3583 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
3584 yet, but it compiles :-)
3586 * Changed default location for install to
3587 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
3588 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
3589 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
3592 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
3593 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
3594 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
