1 Tue Jul 18 19:36:59 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
3 * Added the obvious answer to Dan's question in README.developers;
4 I'm not sure why we don't just have this discussion in e-mail.
6 Mon Jul 17 19:10:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
8 * Clarified and made some corrections to Kimmo's README.developers
9 changes (BTW, if anyone can explain why the RCS Ids are able to cause
10 problems with the dependencies, please fill in the explanation --
11 I never encountered a problem with the old single-commit method).
13 Sat Jul 15 23:13:49 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
15 * Add configure option --with-hash-backup so the backup prefix can
16 be easily changed from "," to "#".
18 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that it works with any make.
20 * Use mkstemp in sbr/lock_file.c.
22 * Commits of autoconf-related files apparently can't all be done
23 in one shot due to RCS Ids changing when committing -- updated
26 Tue Jul 11 14:18:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
28 * Clarified post.man and send.man for those not completely up on
29 SASL terminology. "SASL encryption layers are not supported for
30 SMTP" means that encryption is supported for the authentication
31 but not for the subsequent data stream.
33 Sat Jul 8 01:36:19 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
35 * Applied Ken Hornstein <kenh@cmf.nrl.navy.mil>'s patches
36 implementing SASL support for POP3 and SMTP. If nmh is compiled
37 with SASL support, using the -sasl switch on the inc, msgchk,
38 post, and send commands will enable authentication encryption for
39 SMTP, and both authentication and data stream encryption for POP3.
41 Sat Jun 10 18:37:59 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
43 * Merged mts/sendmail functionality into mts/smtp; switching between
44 smtp and sendmail delivery method is now controlled by mts.conf.
46 * If tsort cannot deal with loops, in addition to defining tsort as
47 cat, also define lorder as echo.
49 * Removed uip/popi.c from list of sources.
51 Thu Jun 08 19:36:57 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
53 * New dtimep.lex didn't parse day names properly. Fixed. Also
54 clarified ambiguous comments preceding day_map[] array (from old
55 dtimep.lex) that probably led to the erroneous cp++ being added.
57 Wed Jun 7 20:52:33 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
59 * Added one more mkstemp invocation to uip/spost.c (which was in a
62 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to clean up permissions handling
63 and error handling in uip/inc.c.
65 Mon Jun 5 22:10:07 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
67 * Use cat instead of tsort if tsort cannot deal with loops in its
68 input (which is the case for tsort from GNU textutils).
70 Mon Jun 5 21:14:36 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
72 * If lockfile is present, and its dotlockfile program is setgid,
73 inc does not need to be setgid.
75 Sun Jun 4 21:35:40 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
77 * Added autoconf test for Miquel van Smoorenburg's liblockfile
78 library, as found on Debian systems.
80 * Added liblockfile support to sbr/lock_file.c.
82 Wed May 31 7:19:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
84 * Fixed up dtimep.lex a bit. Added back memory options for AIX to
85 increase available memory. Took out %option noyywrap, which
86 wasn't understood by AT&T lex, as well as the -i
87 case-insensitivity flag.
89 Wed May 31 07:40:45 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
91 * Added a lint target to the Makefiles and a check in autoconf
92 to determine whether lint or lclint exists on the system.
94 Fri May 30 19:21:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
96 * etc/Makefile.in was incorrectly installing mts.conf.in and
97 sendfiles.in -- fixed. Generated sendfiles script was not a
98 dependency of the `all' target, and was incorrectly included in
99 the distribution. Changed the suffix for the backed-up previous
100 versions of the etc files from the ambiguous .old to .prev. Added
101 call to diff -- only keep the .prev files around if different from
102 the newly-installed versions (intentionally didn't redirect output
103 to /dev/null so you'll notice when your changed versions are
104 getting moved aside).
106 * INSTALL never documented the etc/*.old thing. Documented the
107 new etc/*.prev thing (including a note to watch for diff output).
109 * Applied Alec Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu>'s dropsbr.c patch:
111 In the map_write routine, a call is made to map_open and this
112 call is supposed to set the "clear" variable to 0 or 1,
113 depending on whether the map file is empty or not. In
114 mh6.8.3, this worked because map_open would set "clear" by
115 calling the mbx_Xopen routine. In nmh, the code for mbx_Xopen
116 was merged into mbx_open, but the interface for mbx_open
117 doesn't support the clear variable, so that functionality was
118 lost. The map_open interface still contains "int *clear" in
119 the prototype, but never sets it.
121 My patch eliminates "clear" from the map_open interface (I
122 checked to make sure that map_write is the only client of
123 map_open). Furthermore, my patch also sets the "clear"
124 variable properly at the beginning of map_write by calling
125 fstat(). This eliminates the bug in that the value of "clear"
126 being used later in the routine was just stack garbage.
128 Having a bad value of clear causes this next bug to be
129 triggered: The fp file pointer was being opened with fdopen,
130 but in two of the three switch cases it wasn't being closed.
131 In certain cases, this was causing packf to run out of file
132 descriptors if you attempted to pack a large folder.
134 Mon May 29 7:48:15 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
136 * Moved the date parsing routines from zotnet/tws to sbr/ (and
137 tws.h to h/). Updated all source files to reflect to new location
140 * Rewrote dparsetime (in dtimep.lex -> dtimep.c) to replace the
141 old zotnet/tws/dtimep.c, dtimep.lex, lexstring.c, lexedit.c, and
142 dtimep.c-lexed. It should now work with flex (although untested
143 with lex), and requires no sed-ing. For now, I have the lexed
144 version in the distribution, so that end-users don't need to worry
145 about running it through flex/lex. I have not added back support
146 for guessing the time zone when it's not specified.
148 Sun May 28 17:44:15 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
150 * Added autoconf check for getutent().
152 * Changed uip/rcvtty.c and uip/slocal.c to use getutent() and
153 friends. Since I can only check on Linux, please check if
154 this works on other systems.
156 Sun May 28 14:58:49 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
158 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to uip/scansbr.c for more
159 checks for write failures.
161 * Unlink temporary file properly in uip/rcvtty.c.
163 * Moved viamail from bindir to libdir.
165 * Changed sendfiles into sendfiles.in, so that path to viamail
168 * Added gzip support to sendfiles.
170 * Added References header to replcomps and replgroupcomps.
172 Sun May 28 14:39:31 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
174 * Fixed m_getfld bug which caused segmentation faults when
175 incorporating messages which ended in multiple linefeeds crossing
178 Fri May 26 13:21:59 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
180 * msh has been unable to show MIME messages ever since 1.0. Alec
181 Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu> tracked down the problem to the
182 -show flag being passed to mhshow. mhshow is equivalent to the
183 old mhn -show, so we don't need the -show anymore. Removed it.
185 Fri May 12 02:51:21 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
187 * zotnet/bboards is not longer built by default. Goal is to move
188 the assorted functions in zotnet into sbr or some more logical
191 * Moved zotnet/mf to sbr, and changed mf.h references accordingly,
192 as well as Makefiles.
194 Thu May 11 02:21:34 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
196 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that both SRCS and OBJS aren't
197 seperately and redundantly defined, but so that OBJS is a
198 pattern-substituted version of SRCS with suffix .c -> .o. This
199 should make maintainability easier.
201 * Added section to MACHINES indicating what platforms nmh is known
202 to compile and work on, just to give users peace of mind, or
203 something. This is by no means complete or exhaustive, so add
204 whatever you know works.
206 Tue May 09 20:38:04 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
208 * Alphabetized Shantonu's $pop_kinds output on configure's "pop is
209 enabled" line. If POP3 is the only kind of POP enabled, say so,
210 rather than just saying "yes" (which is ambiguous).
212 * Fixed four warnings in Shantonu's new getpass.c. Needed to
213 #include <stdlib.h> for calloc(), <unistd.h> for ttyname(), and
214 "h/mh.h" for adios(). Also changed ch from char to int to get rid
215 of "comparison is always 1 due to limited range of data type" on EOF.
217 * Added steps to README.developers saying to change the version
218 number to X.Y.Z+dev. Did a little rearranging and changed the FTP
219 dir from /home/ftp to /var/ftp to reflect Doug's new machine.
221 * Changed configure.in to use gcc -Wall even without
222 --enable-debug, to prevent developers compiling optimized from
223 introducing warnings, and to give end-users a warm, fuzzy feeling
224 as they (hopefully) see no warnings come out (except perhaps on
225 the lex output file) even with -Wall.
227 * Renamed getpass() to nmh_getpass() since the prototype for
228 getpass() varies from OS to OS, and we want to _always_ use our
229 version of the function. Fixed all the callers to use
230 nmh_getpass() and added it to prototypes.h. Semi-arbitrarily
231 upped MAX_PASSWORD_LEN from 128 to 256. buf was being calloc()'d
232 and the memory leaked -- should have just been declared as static
233 char array. Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the
234 copyright message, as this version has been changed significantly
235 from the BSD version.
237 * Added "nmh-local functions to use in preference to OS versions"
238 section to README.developers (currently just says to use
239 nmh_getpass() instead of system getpass()).
241 * Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the copyright message
244 * Added mts.conf.5 page per Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s
247 This happens on solaris:
250 windex entry incorrect: mts.conf(5) not found.
251 No manual entry for mts.conf.
255 % echo ".so man5/mh-tailor.5" > mts.conf.5
257 done in the man5 directory. We need to add 'mts.conf.5' as a
258 reference sourcing mh-tailor.5.
260 Mon May 08 23:51:55 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
262 * Doug informed me that the way I had restored the "lost" version
263 histories was wrong, because `cvs checkout's of old versions of
264 nmh wouldn't work properly. It occurs to me that this could be
265 fixed by simply deleting those tags in the new-location *,v files,
266 but oh well. I'm putting everything back to the way Doug
267 originally had it. To get the old version history for a file that
268 used to be in the top directory, you'll need to "blindly" do a
269 `cvs log' there (even though you won't have a local copy of the
270 file in that directory). `cvs diff' will no longer be able to
271 diff pre-move versions vs. post-move versions -- you'll have to do
272 a lot of manual gyrations with `cvs checkout' and then use `diff'.
274 * I had alphabetized the --configure options in the --help output
275 awhile back, but Shantonu added --enable-apop just under
276 --enable-pop. Put it in alphabetical order and clarified what
277 --enable-apop does vs. --enable-pop and --with-krb4. Also changed
278 --with-mts help line from "mail transport agent" to "mail
279 transport agent/service" so the 's' in "mts" doesn't seem to come
282 * Added two steps to "releasing nmh" in README.developers. After
283 making the tarball, it's a good idea to diff the tree vs. the CVS
284 tree to make sure no files got left out, and then to chown the
285 files so that they're owned by root, preventing a Trojaning attack
286 by a malicious remote user with a UID matching yours.
288 * Changed DIFFERENCES to say that RPOP is not currently supported
289 rather than implying it by saying that APOP, KPOP, and POP[3] are.
291 Sun May 07 18:16:43 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
293 * Imported NetBSD version of getpass() and made extensive
294 revisions for compatibility with programs that pipe the password
295 to stdin, such as exmh.
297 * Removed tests for system ruserpass() which sometimes gave
298 phantom positive results. Also, bext to use internal functions if
299 we ever want to change .netrc format to something else, or access
302 Sat May 06 08:28:09 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
304 * Restored lost version histories for those moved files by doing a
305 manual `mv' in the CVSROOT on mhost. CVS badly needs a `cvs mv'
306 command so that you can move files (without having physical access
307 to the CVSROOT) without losing versioning. Put MACHINES back at
308 the top level as it needs to be read before building. Fixed DIST
309 variable in {.,docs}/Makefile.in to reflect that and to add
310 missing entry for "INSTALL" file.
312 Sat May 06 13:13:07 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
314 * Re-cleaned up nmh documentation (by moving things to docs
315 subdir) and modified Makefile & configure.in to handle the change.
317 Mon Apr 17 21:28:40 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
319 * Scott Blachowicz pointed out that the configure --help output
320 for --enable-masquerade was misleading. Clarified.
322 Mon Apr 17 19:01:00 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
324 * APOP support can be compiled in to inc and msgchk using
327 * To access an APOP host, specify -apop on the command line
328 along with any -host or -user option.
330 Fri Apr 14 23:10:44 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
332 * Upped the version number to 1.0.4+dev until the next nmh release.
334 * Added a "releasing nmh" section to README.developers, while the
335 process was fresh in my mind.
337 Fri Apr 14 18:21:34 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
339 * Added new files README.developers, ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6, and
340 ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html to DIST target in Makefile.in.
342 * Released nmh-1.0.4.
344 Tue Apr 11 21:37:03 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
346 * Applied Brian Campbell <bacam@tardis.ed.ac.uk>'s mhn.defaults.sh
349 It appears that there shouldn't be quotes around the %s in the
350 iso-8859-1 charset entry; xterm passes the remaining arguments
351 to the program, quoting them means that xterm thinks they're
352 part of the program's name.
354 This %s isn't the same as the "Insert content subtype" one from
355 mhshow-show-* -- it doesn't come from MIME headers and is safe not
358 Sun Apr 09 13:03:59 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
360 * added check in fmt_compile() to handle a single-character
361 format string. fmt_compile() depends on having an array of
362 format characters with an empty item at the end. A
363 single-character format would cause programs using this
364 function to segfault because the algorithm used to decide on
365 the length of the array mistakenly created a single-item array
366 when the format string was one character. This eventually
367 caused problems when the program attempted to test item+1
370 Thu Apr 06 21:53:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
372 * Richard Coleman threw out a lot of old MH-specific files in nmh.
373 Much of the stuff, indeed, is not worth saving, but there are
374 nuggets that are very worthwhile, and should probably be added
375 back in. Most important, IMHO, are the MH change logs, as they
376 can help answer questions like "Why is this code like this?" or
377 "How long has this been broken?" or "What was this ever used for?"
379 I've added a new file to the nmh tree called
380 ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6. It's cobbled together from the
381 mh-6.8.4/papers/mh*/MHCHANGES files. I've re-ordered the entries
382 to go from newest at the top to oldest at the bottom to match the
383 ChangeLog convention. Unfortunately there are no change logs for
384 versions of MH prior to 3 in the MH tar files available at
385 <ftp://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/mh>. Also, it appears to me that there
386 are MH-6.6 changes that aren't documented in the logs.
388 I've also added ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html. This is
389 based on mh-6.8.4/papers/changes/mh-changes.ms. The nroff format
390 and its "catman"-type output are a pain to deal with, but I was
391 loath to throw away the formatting, so I converted the file to
392 HTML. The only actual markup in the body are the "<B>" and "<U>"
393 tags, and "<" and ">" instead of '<' and '>', so it's quite
394 doable to view the file in plain ASCII mode as well. Note that
395 some of the changes this file documents as having been made in
396 MH-6.8.4 may not be present in nmh -- Richard started with 6.8.3
397 and later put in certain 6.8.4 stuff.
399 Wed Apr 05 21:09:28 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
401 * Applied Eric Schnoebelen <eric@cirr.com>'s mhshowsbr.c patch
402 fixing apparent bugs in Dan Winship's new security quoting code:
404 Since upgrading, I've been getting the following errors
405 while attempting to process some MIME messages:
407 (1) Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
412 (2) line 1/10 (END)Segmentation fault (core dumped)
414 (2) appears to be due to the testing of an unset pointer in
415 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux(). (1) appears to be caused by
416 mis-quoting a filename being handed to the shell in
417 mhshowsbr.c:show_content_aux().
419 Resolving the pointer reference issue in
420 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux() turned up a similar mis-quoting
421 problem in the routine.
423 Tue Mar 28 16:17:39 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
425 * Applied Todd.Miller@courtesan.com's patch to dropsbr.c to
426 prevent core dumping on packf. Here's the note from his message:
428 Since sizeof(buffer) == sizeof(tmpbuffer) packf will dump
429 core on a file w/o a From line with a line >= BUFSIZ.
430 I noticed this because I had a junk file in my mail
433 Fri Mar 17 11:59:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
435 * wesley.craig@umich.edu did not document his previous KPOP patch,
436 so I did so, and asked him to check what I wrote. Unfortunately
437 he didn't notice my misunderstanding of his patch. I wrote that
438 if you #define POPSERVICE "kpop", inc and msgchk will use KPOP
439 exclusively, but if you leave it as "pop3", you can use Wesley's
440 new -kpop switch on a given invocation. Instead, however, -kpop
441 turned out to be necessary on every invocation, and a KPOP user
442 complained. Applied Wesley's new patch, which makes things work
443 like I thought his original patch did. After that, did one more
444 clarifying pass to the documentation in inc.man and msgchk.man.
446 Wed Mar 15 18:45:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
448 * When I fixed the long-standing makedir() bugs in January, I had
449 the code call strtoul(..., 0), which I believed to be safe as all
450 modes specified as ASCII constants in the nmh code started with a
451 leading zero (signifying octal), which I did as it would work if
452 internal constants were ever changed to hex. Unfortunately I was
453 unaware of the "Folder-Protect:" .mh_profile entry, which
454 mh-profile.man documents as an octal-only constant, with no
455 leading zero required. I've changed the strtoul() call to an
456 atooi() call and removed the misleading leading zeroes on the
457 ASCII octal constants in the code and man pages. Also changed the
458 "Folder-Protect:" example in the man page to something more
459 interesting than a duplication of the default.
461 * When I added my --enable-masquerade option, you'll note that I
462 didn't make it --enable-nmh-masquerade. I find the --enable-nmh-*
463 options too wordy and I'm not sure why Richard went that route.
464 I've renamed them to just --enable-*, but the old versions will
465 still work as well (they just aren't advertised).
467 * Added a line to the "nmh configuration" output saying whether
470 * Added a new README.developers file. From the file:
472 This file is intended to provide a few tips for anyone doing
473 development on nmh. Developers who learn things "the hard
474 way" about the nmh codebase (as opposed to local info best
475 encoded in a comment) are encouraged to share their wisdom
478 Currently the topics are "autoconf files" and "directory structure".
480 Tue Mar 14 12:41:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
482 * Applied, after some finessing,
483 Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s --with-smtpservers patch:
485 Here's a patch that allows you to add
487 --with-smtpservers=<some.host.name>
489 to the ./configure command line to set the "servers: " line in
490 etc/mts.conf. Around here, we use "mailhost" so that all
491 machines in the current domain just talk to a central machine
492 and nothing else runs an MTA. Now, I can use
494 --with-smtpservers=mailhost
496 instead of having to remember to fix this by hand (and often
497 forgetting to do so!).
499 * Inspired by Simon's patch, added an --enable-masquerade option
500 to configure. It will set the "masquerade:" line of mts.conf.
501 You may specify a subset of the three types of masquerading, like
502 --enable-masquerade="draft_from mmailid", or leave off explicit
503 arguments to enable all three types.
505 * Alphabetized the --enable and --with options in configure.in and
506 INSTALL and added documentation of the two new options to the latter.
508 * Added new dependency for mts.conf: Makefile. If this isn't
509 done, then when you reconfigure nmh with new values for
510 --enable-masquerade or --with-smtpservers, you'll fail to get an
511 updated copy of mts.conf.
513 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtimep.lex patch:
515 It seems that some MUA's didn't handle y2k very well - ELM
516 seems to be one of them, and Ultrix's DXmail (based on MH!).
517 I've got a few emails this month that look like:
519 575 Jan 00 Xxxxxx Xxxx 3603 ...
521 22+ Jan 00 Xxx Xxxxx 1771 ...
523 The first has "15 Jan 100" as the date and the second has
524 "19 Jan 00" as the date. The following works around this so
525 that scan, show, sortm, etc work ok.
527 I put Simon's patch under the control of a new #define called
528 FIX_NON_Y2K_COMPLIANT_MUA_DATES. There's some commentary in
529 acconfig.h about when you might not want to #define it.
531 * Created new dtimep.c-lexed with Simon's change using dtimep.lex
532 lexed on Solaris 2.6. Added missing dependency in
533 zotnet/tws/Makefile.in for dtimep.c: dtimep.c-lexed.
535 * Added scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD format files.
537 Mon Mar 13 21:32:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
539 * Applied Sullivan N. Beck <sbeck@cise.ufl.edu>'s mhshow-suffix patch:
541 With the patch below, you can add lines like:
543 mhshow-suffix-application/msword: .doc
544 mhshow-suffix-application/PostScript: .ps
546 to the mhn.defaults file to append the given suffix to a
547 scratch file. This allows applications which require a
548 certain suffix to run properly.
550 * Removed -force_html from lynx entry in mhn.defaults.sh (I
551 believe older versions of lynx lack that option) and added
552 "mhshow-suffix-text/html: .html".
554 * Modified username_extension masquerading to only use the
555 extended address on generated [Resent-]From: lines and SMTP
556 envelope From:. With Neil's original implementation, nmh's global
557 idea of the username was changed, which would result in inc lying
558 and saying you had no new mail because it was looking for a
559 mailbox called, for instance, "dan-nmh" (where username was "dan"
560 and $USERNAME_EXTENSION was "-nmh").
562 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtime.c patch:
564 There's a wrap-around problem that affects the implementation
565 of Zeller's congruence in dtime.c. This causes the day-of-week
566 calculations to fail for dates after Feb 29, 2000 (probably up
567 until some year far in the future).
569 Mon Mar 06 12:20:20 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
571 * Applied Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s msh.c patch:
573 I finally tracked down the problem in msh that was causing
574 errors whenever I tried to examine a 'mmdf' style mailbox.
576 It turns out that not enough memory was being allocated with
577 calloc(), causing memory pointers to be overwritten and
580 Fri Mar 03 16:07:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
582 * Changed the new "plussed_user" option to mts.conf's
583 "masquerade:" to "username_extension" after getting feedback from
584 qmail users, who use '-' as a separator rather than '+'. Removed
585 checking of $USERPLUS variable. Now check $USERNAME_EXTENSION,
586 which needs to include the appropriate separator for your MTA
587 ('-', '+', or whatever) as its first character.
589 Thu Mar 02 23:04:30 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
591 * Added a new "boolean" type to mh.h and TRUE and FALSE constants.
593 * Added a note to DIFFERENCES stating that it's out-of-date
594 (Richard was the last one to update it) and that we should
595 consider only documenting incompatibilities with MH there.
597 * Implemented (and documented) a third kind of username
598 masquerading: "plussed user" masquerading. This one was suggested
599 by Neil Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>. It's based on sendmail's
600 "plussed user" feature, where mail sent to <user>+<string> will be
601 delivered to <user>. When it's enabled, it's controlled by the
602 $USERPLUS environment variable. How is it enabled? Well, that
605 * Renamed the "mmailid:" setting in mts.conf to "masquerade:", and
606 changed it so that rather than being a boolean, it can be set to
607 any combination of the three values "draft_from", "mmailid", and
608 "plussed_user". Thus it is now possible to enable the three types
609 of masquerading individually.
611 * Fixed a bug with "mmailid" masquerading (dating back to MH?)
612 where if it was turned on, ','s would no longer be considered
613 GECOS field delimiters.
615 Wed Mar 01 23:30:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
617 * Changed the GECOS-field '&' translation behavior to be
618 controlled by the BSD42 #define rather than GCOS_HACK, since it's
619 apparently always appropriate on OSes where BSD42 is #defined, and
620 never appropriate on any other OSes. Thanks to Kimmo Suominen for
621 responding to my "What is this code here for?" comment in mts.c
622 and explaining the feature.
624 Mon Feb 28 21:50:29 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
626 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3+dev (ideally this should be
627 done by whoever makes a release tar file, immediately after doing
630 * Applied Paul Fox <pgf-spam@foxharp.boston.ma.us>'s scansbr.c
631 patch, posted to comp.mail.mh, which he says prevents loss of mail
632 when inc'ing into a full filesystem.
634 * Changed "echo > stamp-h.in" in Makefile.in to "date > stamp-h.in"
635 so that stamp-h.in will be different each time configure.in and
636 related files are changed, making it easier to check it in (which
637 is necessary to prevent unnecessary autoconf calls).
639 * My declaration of initgroups() in slocal.c to eliminate the "no
640 prototype" warning wasn't portable (FreeBSD 3.[23] choked). Now
641 use AC_EGREP_HEADER to see where initgroups() is declared, if
644 Sun Feb 20 12:17:15 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
646 * Fix security hole in mhshowsbr.c which allowed untrusted shell
649 * Released nmh 1.0.3.
651 Thu Feb 10 10:54:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
653 * Oops. %-escapes on mhstore lines in mhn.defaults.sh should not
654 be surrounded by single quotes, as a shell is not spawned when
655 just saving files, and the filenames will end up with literal
656 quotes embedded in them.
658 Fri Feb 04 12:29:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
660 * Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
661 got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
662 the -help output. One theory is that they were making reference
663 to the fact that clearly you know about the -help option since
664 you're currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea
665 to overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
666 supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
669 The other theory is that because you can say something like
670 "mhstore -" and get "mhstore: - ambiguous. It matches" followed
671 by the same list of switches you get with -help, they were saying
672 you can "sorta" abbreviate "-help" as "-". You don't get the
673 "Usage:" string, though, so it's not really the same thing.
675 Thu Feb 03 17:52:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
677 * Applied wesley.craig@umich.edu's KPOP patches. According to him:
679 The following patch fixes a problem with requesting a
680 service key for a machine that has multiple 'A' records. It
681 also makes "-kpop" a command line option, for users who
682 would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".
684 Did no testing of the new features, as I don't have access to a
687 * Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
689 * Modified INSTALL and config.h.in to reflect the new -kpop feature.
691 Fri Jan 28 17:39:24 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
693 * All %-escapes in mhn.defaults that actually expand to something
694 should be surrounded by single quotes. Added quotes to the ones
695 in mhn.defaults.sh that were missing them.
697 * Added check for lynx to write mhshow-show-text/html line in
700 Thu Jan 27 12:22:25 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
702 * makedir() had multiple bugs dating back to MH. An octal
703 constant was apparently being interpreted as decimal, resulting in
704 directories with no user read or execute permissions, making
705 nested directory creation fail. And there wasn't even an
706 _attempt_ to set desired permissions (e.g. from "Folder-Protect:"
707 in .mh_profile) on the outer directories of a nested directory.
709 * A second `make install' would always fail because the check for
710 whether mh_profile.5 existed was written incorrectly.
712 Wed Jan 26 02:22:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
714 * Added documentation on both types of masquerading to post's man
717 Tue Jan 25 22:58:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
719 * Doug's portability fix of my setgid inc autodetection had a
720 caching bug -- if you re-ran configure, uip/Makefile would be
721 corrupted, and installation would bomb out on OSes where inc needs
724 * Implemented a new kind of email address masquerading. Usually,
725 when a user writes a custom "From:" header in a draft, nmh uses it
726 rather than generating one. However, the user's true address is
727 used in the SMTP envelope "From:" and is revealed in the "Sender:"
728 header. Now, when mmailid is set to non-zero, the envelope
729 "From:" uses the address specified in the draft "From:" header,
730 and there is no "Sender:" header. This is useful when sending on
731 behalf of a remote POP3 account or when remote mail robots
732 incorrectly use the envelope "From:" in preference to the body
733 "From:". This processing has only been implemented for post, not
734 for the undocumented spost (which was already missing some "From:"
735 processing that post has).
737 Mon Jan 24 22:26:06 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
739 * Got rid of the rest of the gcc -Wall warnings that I didn't have
740 time for on 1999-07-15 (and, it would seem, some new ones people
741 introduced since then). The primary ones were the warnings that
742 default prototypes were being used for [v]snprintf() and
743 str[n]casecmp(). As of right now, there are _no_ compilation
744 warnings except on dtimep.c-lexed (at least under AIX 4.1.5 and
747 Sun Jan 2 23:42:18 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
749 * Move mhtest from bindir to libdir.
751 * Move sendfiles from libdir to bindir.
753 * Updated sendfiles manpage to reflect this change.
755 * Added documentation for -build and -file switches to repl and
756 forw manpages (patch from Peter Maydell).
758 * Fixed interaction between specifying -cc in profile and -group on
761 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
763 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
764 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
765 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
768 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
770 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
771 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
772 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
773 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
774 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
775 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).
777 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
779 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
781 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
783 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
784 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
785 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
786 caught again. This works for now.
788 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
790 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
792 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
793 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
795 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
797 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
798 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
800 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
802 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
804 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
806 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
807 changes. Both need more cleanup.
809 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
811 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
812 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
813 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
814 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
815 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
818 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
820 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
821 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
822 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
824 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
825 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
828 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
830 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
831 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
832 to a directory on another device with more free space.
834 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
836 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
837 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
839 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
841 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
844 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
845 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
847 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
848 macros, regardless of platform.
850 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
851 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
853 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
854 with x-conversions=gzip.
856 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
858 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
861 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
862 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
863 implicit definition of ioctl().
865 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
866 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
867 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
868 want to mess with them.
870 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
872 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
873 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
875 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
876 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
878 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
879 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
880 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
882 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
883 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
884 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
886 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
889 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
892 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
893 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
896 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
897 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
900 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
901 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
905 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
907 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
908 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
909 preventing compilation on at least linux.
911 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
912 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
914 Thu Sep 09 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
916 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
918 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
919 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
920 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
921 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
923 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
924 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
926 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
928 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
930 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
932 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
933 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
935 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
937 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
938 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
940 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
941 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
942 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
943 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
945 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
946 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
948 Sat Jun 09 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
950 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
951 substitute it for mktemp if available.
953 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
955 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
956 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
959 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
961 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
963 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
965 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
966 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
968 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
969 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
970 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
972 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
973 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
974 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
976 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
977 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
978 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
980 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
981 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
984 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
985 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
987 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
988 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
990 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
993 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
994 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
995 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
997 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
998 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1000 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
1001 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
1002 <elleron@servtech.com>.
1004 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
1005 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
1008 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
1009 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
1011 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
1012 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
1013 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
1014 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
1016 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
1017 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
1019 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1023 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
1024 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
1025 would not be changed.
1027 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
1028 one from the Apache web server.
1030 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
1031 (this should have been done a long time ago).
1033 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
1034 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
1035 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
1037 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
1039 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
1041 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
1042 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
1045 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
1046 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
1047 removes a bad race condition.
1049 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
1052 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
1053 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
1054 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
1056 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
1057 sequence information.
1059 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
1060 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
1062 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
1065 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
1068 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
1070 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
1071 interpret 034 as octal.
1073 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
1075 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
1076 mhstore, and mhbuild.
1078 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
1079 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
1081 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
1082 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
1084 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
1085 in the c_cefile structure when building.
1087 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
1088 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
1090 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
1091 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
1092 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
1094 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
1095 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
1096 and mhshow. Updated man pages
1098 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
1100 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
1102 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
1103 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
1106 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
1108 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
1109 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
1111 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
1112 header field information.
1114 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
1115 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
1117 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
1118 values when parsing a content.
1120 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
1121 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
1123 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
1124 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
1126 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
1127 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1129 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
1130 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
1132 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
1134 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
1136 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
1138 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
1140 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
1141 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
1144 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
1145 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
1147 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
1148 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
1149 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
1150 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
1151 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
1152 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
1155 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1157 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
1158 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
1159 buffer length checks for this parameter.
1161 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
1162 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
1164 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1166 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
1167 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
1168 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
1169 of the limits on the length of command lines.
1171 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
1172 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
1175 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
1176 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
1177 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
1178 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
1181 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1183 * Released nmh-0.27.
1185 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
1186 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
1188 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
1189 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
1190 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
1191 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
1194 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
1195 mhbuild returns an error.
1197 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
1198 rename the draft file.
1200 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
1201 use a global variable.
1203 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
1204 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
1206 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
1207 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
1209 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
1210 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
1211 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
1213 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
1214 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
1216 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
1217 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
1220 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
1221 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
1224 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
1225 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
1227 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
1228 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
1229 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
1231 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
1232 to new function output_content_folder.
1234 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
1235 new function output_content_file.
1237 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
1238 to new function parse_format_string.
1240 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
1241 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
1242 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
1243 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
1245 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
1246 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
1247 message/external file from ftp.
1249 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
1250 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
1251 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
1253 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
1254 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
1257 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
1260 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
1261 new file mhstoresbr.c
1263 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
1266 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
1267 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
1269 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
1270 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
1272 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
1273 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
1274 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
1276 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
1278 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
1280 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
1281 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
1284 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
1285 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
1287 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
1290 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
1292 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1294 * Released nmh-0.26.
1296 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
1297 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
1298 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
1299 is still the same (dashstuffing).
1301 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
1302 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
1303 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
1304 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
1305 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
1307 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
1308 But it is not on by default.
1310 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
1311 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
1313 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
1315 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
1317 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
1319 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
1321 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
1322 number of the "cur" message when packing.
1324 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1326 * Released nmh-0.25.
1328 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
1329 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
1330 uses the original name of the library.
1332 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
1333 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
1336 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
1337 list_content and list_debug.
1339 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
1341 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
1342 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.
1344 1998-02-27 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1346 * Released nmh-0.24.
1348 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
1350 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
1351 are given, that order doesn't matter.
1353 * Fix bug in seq_list.c when realloc'ing for
1354 large sequence line.
1356 1998-02-23 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1358 * Released nmh-0.23.
1360 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
1362 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
1363 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan
1364 content, decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary
1365 string). I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
1367 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
1368 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
1371 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
1373 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
1375 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
1377 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
1378 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
1380 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
1381 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.
1383 * Add note to MACHINES file that on Linux, configure
1384 doesn't find the functions sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
1386 * Fix configuration for machines that don't have (or find)
1387 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
1389 1998-02-11 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1391 * Released nmh-0.22.
1393 * Add a configure check for sigsetjmp. Add some conditional
1394 #define's in h/signals.h in case it's not found.
1396 * Added additional notes about -auto switch in mhn man page.
1398 * Added note about MM_CHARSET environment variable to
1399 mh-profile(5) man page.
1401 * Fix signal problem in mhn.c (change setjmp/longjmp to
1402 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp).
1404 1998-02-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1406 * Released nmh-0.22-pre1.
1408 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
1409 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
1411 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
1413 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
1414 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
1415 entry point for parsing MIME files.
1417 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
1418 source message on the standard input.
1420 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
1422 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
1423 rather than -rfc934mode.
1425 * Fix mhbuild, so that Content-Description and RFC-822 comments
1426 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
1429 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
1430 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).
1432 * Restore HP specific code to zotnet/tws/lexstring.c. Apparently
1435 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1437 * Released nmh-0.21.
1439 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
1440 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.
1442 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what transfer
1445 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what character set
1446 to use for text contents.
1448 * Removed old hpux specific code from zotnet/tws/lexstring.c
1450 1998-02-02 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1452 * Released nmh-0.21-pre2.
1454 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
1456 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
1457 header fields as per RFC-2047.
1459 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
1460 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
1461 spaces between encoded word are.
1463 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
1465 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
1466 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
1468 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
1469 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
1470 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
1472 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
1474 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
1475 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
1477 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.
1479 * Added support for %(decode) to fmtdump.c.
1481 * check_charset() now accepts US-ASCII as a subset of any
1482 ISO-8859-X character set.
1484 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
1487 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
1488 permissions, not write permissions.
1490 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
1491 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
1493 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
1496 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1498 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
1500 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
1501 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
1503 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
1504 message contains valid character set.
1506 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
1507 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
1509 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
1510 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
1512 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
1513 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
1514 between an encoded word and normal text.
1516 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
1517 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
1519 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
1520 as a RFC-2047 header field.
1522 * The command install-mh now recognizes the switches -version
1525 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
1526 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
1529 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
1530 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
1532 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
1533 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
1535 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
1537 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1539 * Released nmh-0.20.
1541 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
1543 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.
1545 * Changed the default format file for mhl (mhl.format) to
1546 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
1547 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
1549 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
1550 and the To: line was missing.
1552 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
1554 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1556 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
1558 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
1559 watch the POP transaction.
1561 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
1562 first, and use it if available.
1564 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
1565 first, and use it if available.
1567 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1569 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
1571 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
1572 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
1573 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
1576 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
1577 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
1578 returns the state FLDPLUS.
1580 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
1581 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
1584 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
1586 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
1587 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
1589 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
1591 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
1592 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
1594 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
1595 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
1596 message to which you are replying.
1598 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
1599 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
1600 making group replies.
1602 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
1604 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1606 * Released nmh-0.19.
1608 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
1609 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
1611 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
1612 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
1613 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
1614 to the end of the man page.
1616 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
1617 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
1618 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
1619 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
1620 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
1621 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
1623 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
1626 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
1627 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
1628 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
1630 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
1631 the next available number above the message number you wish
1634 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
1635 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
1637 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
1638 file sbr/seq_print.c
1640 * flist will now update the current folder.
1642 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
1643 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
1644 but now undocumented.
1646 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
1649 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
1650 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
1652 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
1654 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
1655 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
1657 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1659 * Released nmh-0.18.
1661 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
1662 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
1663 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
1665 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
1666 retains the public/private status of sequences.
1668 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
1669 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
1670 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
1671 previous public/private status.
1673 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
1676 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
1679 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
1680 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
1681 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
1683 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
1684 take option to determine whether it should get current
1685 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
1686 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
1688 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
1690 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
1691 wait for stopped processes.
1693 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
1694 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
1696 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1698 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
1700 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
1701 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
1703 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
1704 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
1706 * Change the way that memory for message status is
1707 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
1708 the folder/message structure. This required changing
1709 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
1711 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
1714 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
1717 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
1719 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
1720 the debugging output.
1722 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
1723 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
1725 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1727 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
1729 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
1730 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
1732 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
1734 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
1735 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
1736 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
1737 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
1738 in the given sequence.
1740 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
1741 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
1742 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
1743 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
1744 subdirectories of a given directory.
1746 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
1747 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
1748 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
1750 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
1751 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
1753 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
1755 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
1758 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
1759 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
1760 fields are now calculated at runtime.
1762 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
1763 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
1764 are calculated at runtime.
1766 Sun Nov 30 19:14:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

1770 * Add paragraph to man page for install-mh and to INSTALL file
1771 about checking for global mh.profile.
1773 * Renamed m_find() to context_find().
1774 Renamed m_replace() to context_replace().

1776 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
1777 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
1778 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
1780 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
1781 adding message to folder itself.
1783 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
1784 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
1785 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
1788 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
1789 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
1792 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
1793 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
1794 is the same as the direct smtp code).
1796 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
1797 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
1799 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
1800 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
1801 code to use it yet).

1805 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.
1807 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never
1808 called with a value larger than 30 mintues.
1810 * Fixed race condition in rmm and refile, so that
1811 context is updated before external rmmproc is called.
1813 * Removed all the OVERHEAD code.
1815 * Move code to add message to folder from refile.c

1851 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
1853 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
1854 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
1856 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
1859 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
1860 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
1862 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
1863 number of refiled message.
1865 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
1867 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
1868 for return value of wait().
1870 * Change configure to also check /bin for "more".
1872 Sat Jul 12 00:02:23 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1874 * Released nmh-0.16.

1878 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
1880 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
1881 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
1882 deal with binary messages, yet).
1884 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
1886 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
1888 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
1889 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
1890 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
1891 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
1892 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
1893 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
1895 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
1896 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
1898 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
1899 From MH-6.8.4 patch.
1901 * Fix double free of ctinfo in user_content when using
1902 #forw with single message. From John MacMillan (and
1905 * Changed -mhnproc switch for show, to -showmimeproc.
1907 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".
1909 * Added "mime" option to "whatnow", which calls the program
1910 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
1913 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
1916 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
1918 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
1919 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
1920 which used unsigned chars by default.
1922 Sat Jun 21 01:21:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1924 * Released nmh-0.15.
1926 * Added new form "scan.unseen" to distribution. It marks messages

1931 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
1933 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
1936 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
1937 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
1938 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
1940 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
1941 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
1943 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
1945 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
1946 they conflict with defines on AIX.
1948 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
1949 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
1950 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
1951 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
1953 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
1954 and put in own subroutine.
1956 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
1957 and put in own subroutine.
1959 * Moved code to remove messages from folder into own
1960 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and
1961 refile.c to use new routine.
1963 Fri May 16 06:09:31 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1965 * Renamed m_seqok to seq_nameok.
1967 * Changed m_setunseen, msh, mshcmds, flist, and scan to use
1970 * Changed m_seqflag to return the number of a sequence rather
1971 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
1972 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
1974 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
1977 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before
1978 adding message to sequence.
1980 * Renamed function m_setvis to m_setunseen, and renamed
1981 corresponding file in sbr.
1983 * Renamed function m_setseq to m_setprev, and renamed corresponding
1986 * Changed mark.c and pick.c to use m_seqaddsel and m_seqdelsel.
1988 * Added new function m_seqdelsel to m_seqdel.c, which deletes
1989 all selected messages from a sequence.
1991 * Added new function m_seqaddsel to m_seqadd.c, which adds all
1992 selected messages to a sequence.
1994 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,
1997 Thu May 15 00:53:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1999 * Renamed function pack_folder to m_packfolder, and moved it
2000 from uip/folder.c into its own file sbr/m_packfolder.c
2002 Wed May 14 23:38:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2004 * Changed function m_gmsg to m_readfolder. Renamed file

2023 `procs' better. Deprecated `-noshowproc' option and NOMHNPROC
2024 environment variable.
2026 * Added new man page `mh-draft' which documents the
2027 draft folder facility in nmh.

2041 * Released nmh-0.13.
2043 * Changed mhpath so it doesn't abort if a message sequence
2044 such as "mhpath all" expands to more than 1000 messages.
2045 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
2046 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
2049 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
2050 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
2052 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2054 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if
2055 necessary. So `folders' can now handle more than 300 folders.
2057 Tue Apr 22 14:01:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2059 * Change configure to use a compile check to see if the tm struct

2084 * Merge Linux patch sent in by Michel Oosterhof (original
2085 patch from bsa@kf8nh.wariat.org).
2087 * Document an undocumented MH feature. mhn -form mhl.null
2088 will suppress the display of the message header.
2090 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
2092 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c
2093 and mshcmds.c, rather than hard coding in /bin/cat.
2095 * Add mhnproc to the list of `procs' in mh-profile.man.
2097 * Add configure test for lorder and tsort commands.
2099 * Commented out the padding in the `msgs` struct in h/mh.h
2101 * Change m_gmsg.c to allocate elements to the `info' array by
2102 500 elements at a time (rather than MAXFOLDERS / 5).
2104 * Add note to man page for mhmail that zero length messages are
2105 not sent. Need to use -body "" to send empty messages.
2107 * zotnet/mts/mts.c : compare character with '\0', not NULL.
2109 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
2111 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
2112 folder/message structure when done with folder.
2114 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is
2115 defined even if message is missing "From " line.
2117 Mon Mar 31 03:37:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2119 * Released nmh-0.10.

2126 Thu Mar 20 03:21:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2128 * Reversed previous decision to retain "From " lines in slocal.
2129 The "From " line is now removed from all messages.
2131 * inc now saves the date from the "From " envelope in the
2132 Delivery-Date header for all messages.
2134 * sbr/m_getfld.c: Clean up processing of Return-Path and
2135 Delivery-Date from the "From " envelope.
2137 Mon Mar 17 19:03:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2139 * client.c: cast iaddr to int before comparing return value
2140 of inet_addr with NOTOK.
2142 Tue Mar 11 04:38:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2144 * Grep test for signal names was failing on some OS'es because
2145 of missing tabs in regex.

2165 Tue Mar 4 03:10:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2167 * ruserpass.c : removed conflicting prototypes.
2169 * rcvtty.c : Fixed rcvtty to obey terminal permissions granted
2170 by `mesg' command. Previously only worked on BSD machines.
2172 Mon Mar 3 00:18:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2174 * rcvtty.c : Changed to use #define UTMP_FILE (if exists) rather
2175 than hard coded "/etc/utmp".
2177 * Released nmh-0.08.
2179 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
2180 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of
2181 locking database itself.
2183 Thu Feb 27 05:28:09 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2185 * Added slocal action `mmdf' to deliver to a file in mmdf format.
2187 * Changed the slocal actions `file' and `>' to always deliver in
2188 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
2191 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
2192 rather than mmdf format.
2194 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
2195 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
2196 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
2197 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
2199 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
2201 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2203 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
2206 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2207 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2208 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
2210 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2211 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2212 rcvpack so you can choose the preferred format.
2214 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2216 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
2217 can still easily change this in config.h).
2219 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
2220 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
2221 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
2223 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2225 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather
2226 than tzset and external timezone variable.
2228 Thu Feb 13 00:35:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2230 * Fixed typo in ruserpass.c in the variable toktabs.

2235 * Released nmh-0.07.
2237 Tue Feb 11 01:29:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2239 * Add check to configure, so that if ruserpass, or _ruserpass
2240 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
2242 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
2243 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
2246 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
2247 built-in FTP client in mhn.
2249 * Added configure check for ushort and ulong. Change code
2250 to use ushort/ulong rather than u_short/u_long.
2252 * A couple of small cleanups in locking code.
2254 * Added configure check for gmtoff element in struct tm.
2256 * Added configure check for tzset.
2258 Fri Feb 7 03:01:57 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2260 * Released nmh-0.06.
2262 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
2263 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
2265 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
2266 many such machines around anymore.
2268 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
2269 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
2271 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
2272 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
2274 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2276 * Check lex generated file in zotnet/tws and use
2277 pre-generated version if necessary.
2279 * Released nmh-0.05.
2281 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
2282 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
2283 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
2284 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
2286 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
2287 be linked in one pass.
2289 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2291 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
2292 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
2294 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2296 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
2298 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2300 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
2301 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
2302 become the current folder.
2304 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2306 * Released nmh-0.04.
2308 * Define ospeed and PC in termsbr.c is OS doesn't have
2311 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2313 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
2314 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
2315 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
2317 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2319 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
2320 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
2322 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2324 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
2325 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
2328 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
2329 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
2331 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2333 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
2334 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
2335 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
2336 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
2337 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
2338 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
2340 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2342 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
2343 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
2345 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
2346 a file (currently need to specify full path).
2348 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2350 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
2351 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
2353 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2355 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
2356 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
2357 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
2359 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2361 * Released nmh-0.03.
2363 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
2364 .mh_sequence file existed.
2366 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
2367 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
2369 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
2370 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
2373 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2375 * Changed flist option -unseen to -[no]all. Cleaned up
2378 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2380 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
2381 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
2382 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
2384 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2386 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
2387 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
2388 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
2390 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2392 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL
2393 and allocate its own buffer. Borrowed from zsh.
2395 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
2397 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2399 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
2400 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
2401 directory from where the source code is located.
2403 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2405 * Released nmh-0.02.
2407 Wed Jan 1 17:41:52 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

2412 Tue Dec 31 03:07:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2414 * Changed code to use strerror, rather than using sys_errlist
2415 and sys_nerr directly.
2417 Mon Dec 30 02:15:25 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2419 * -compat switch from install-mh removed.
2421 * Changed the default POP port from "pop" to "pop3".
2423 Sat Dec 28 13:25:05 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2425 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
2426 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
2427 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
2428 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
2429 rather than in script.
2431 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2433 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
2435 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with
2436 macro defined on Solaris.
2438 Thu Dec 26 02:50:15 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2440 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
2441 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
2443 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
2444 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
2445 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
2446 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
2449 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2451 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
2452 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.
2454 * Fixed configure test so that termcap variable ospeed is
2457 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2459 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
2461 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included
2462 in mhn.c. Changed md5 to use memset and memcpy.
2464 Fri Dec 20 02:29:37 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2466 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
2467 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
2469 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2471 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
2472 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
2473 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
2474 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
2475 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
2476 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
2478 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2480 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
2482 * Released nmh-0.01.
2484 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
2485 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
2486 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
2489 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2491 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
2494 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2496 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
2497 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
2499 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2501 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
2502 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
2503 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
2504 script to find_program.
2506 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2508 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
2509 speed up -recurse option.
2511 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
2512 yet, but it compiles :-)
2514 * Changed default location for install to
2515 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
2516 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
2517 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
2520 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
2521 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
2522 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
