1 2009-12-25 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
3 * uip/inc.c: gcc 4.4.1 noticed that maildir could have been
4 used before initialization. In fact, if that code was ever
5 reached, maildir would never have been initialized. It's in
6 an adios call, so replaced with NULL.
8 2009-12-21 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
10 * mts/smtp/smtp.c: In sm_auth_sasl (), removed zeroing of
11 sasl_inbuffer because it could be used in sm_fget (). Also,
12 removed allocation of sasl_inbuffer because that was done in
13 either smtp_init () or sendmail_init ().
15 2009-01-17 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
17 * etc/mhn.defaults.sh: Never try to make mhshow start xterm.
19 2009-01-16 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
21 * test/runtest, test/tests/inc/test-deb359167,
22 test/tests/inc/test-eom-align, test/tests/manpages/test-manpages:
23 Load common.sh via absolute path, otherwise some /bin/sh
24 (e.g. dash) can't load it.
26 * uip/Makefile.in, uip/new.c, test/tests/new/test-basic: Add new
27 program, and fn/fp/unseen symlinks.
29 * test/{runtest,setup-test}: Move MH profile under Mail directory
30 so each test script will have its own to muck with, if needed.
32 * h/Makefile.in, h/crawl_folders.h, sbr/Makefile.in,
33 sbr/crawl_folders.c, uip/folder.c: Extract the folder crawling
34 code from folder.c into new crawl_folders function, using a
35 callback to assemble the folder info in folder.c. Drop compare
36 function and use strcmp instead. Rename addfold and addir to
37 add_folder and add_children (add dir vs. add folder?
40 2008-12-26 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
42 * sbr/m_getfld.c: fix two bugs which could cause us to walk off
43 the beginning of the stdio or prefix-string buffer when checking
44 for presence of the end-of-message delimiter in some situations.
45 This might cause inc to dump core if you were unlucky. (This was
47 * test/tests/inc/{md5sums,msgheader.txt,test-deb359167,
48 test-eom-align,fromline.txt,filler.txt,deb359167.mbox}: new tests
49 both for the specific problem and to try to check various alignments
50 of the eom string with the stdio buffer ending.
51 * test/common.sh: new file for common utility functions for the
52 test scripts. Moved findprog out of manpage test script into this
53 new file. Added some functions for doing progress indicators.
55 2008-12-25 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
57 * test/runtest: automatically run setup-test if it hasn't already
58 been done. Improve error handling in test script with 'set -e'.
60 2008-10-23 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
62 * h/mh.h: raised NAMESZ from 128 to 999. RFC 2822 limits line
63 lengths to 998 characters, so a header name can be at most that long.
64 m_getfld limits header names to 2 less than NAMESZ, which is fine,
65 because header names must be followed by a colon. Add one for
68 2008-10-23 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
70 * sbr/m_getfld.c: in warning message, use NAMESZ-2 instead of
71 NAMESZ-1 bytes because the message says "exceeds", not
72 "is greater than or equal to".
74 2008-10-23 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
76 * docs/MAIL.FILTERING: added note on removing procmail -f or
77 -r options to try to suppress generation of a "From " line on
80 2008-08-14 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
82 * test/setup-test: Don't run autogen.sh unless needed. Build in a
83 blddir under the temporary directory so as not to interfere with
84 whatever the developer may be doing in the source directory.
85 If the temporary directory already exists, rebuild and install it.
87 2008-08-13 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
89 * sbr/ambigsw.c: Send print_sw output to stderr. This avoids
90 strange problems with scan `pick -bogus`, not to mention being
93 * sbr/getans.c, sbr/print_help.c, uip/msh.c: Send print_sw output
96 * h/prototypes.h, sbr/print_sw.c (print_sw): Add FILE * argument
97 and send output there rather than to stdout.
99 * test/tests/pick/test-stderr: Add test that error messages don't
100 end up going to stdout.
102 2008-08-13 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
104 * uip/pick.c: Print matching messages immediately, instead of
105 waiting until the very end to print anything.
106 Ensure valid sequence name as soon as we parse it from command,
107 instead of searching the messages first.
109 2008-08-13 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
111 * uip/Makefile.in, uip/popi.c: Remove popi.c, which has been dead
112 since PatchSet 257 (2000/06/12 11:07:34 UTC).
114 2008-08-13 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
116 * h/mhparse.h: Move interfaces also used by mhbuildsbr.c here
119 * uip/Makefile.in (mhbuild): Build with mhparse.o.
121 * uip/mhbuildsbr.c: Drop the duplication of mhparse.c.
123 * uip/mhbuild.c, uip/mhlist.c, uip/mhn.c, uip/mhshow.c,
124 uip/mhstore.c, uip/mhtest.c: Drop check swdeclaration, which is
127 * uip/mhparse.c: Move some declarations to mhparse.h, and remove
128 'static' from the definitions here.
129 (get_ctinfo): Take magic mhbuild support from mhbuildsbr.c's copy,
131 (incl_name_value, extract_name_value): Move from mhbuildsbr.c to
132 support get_ctinfo change).
133 (get_content, open7Bit): Add Content-Disposition support, added to
134 mhbuildsbr.c's copy in mhbuildsbr.c r1.12 (PatchSet 549).
135 (InitText): Default to CHARSET_UNSPECIFIED instead of "US-ASCII",
136 as mhbuildsbr.c's copy did. Explain termproc.
137 (openBase64, openQuoted, open7Bit): Fix comment from r1.5:
138 suffixes, not prefixes.
139 (openMail): Explain showproc.
141 * test/tests/mhshow/test-cte-binary: Add test for
142 Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary (Debian #136976).
144 * test/tests/mhbuild/test-forw: Add an mhbuild test, testing forw
145 with and without RFC-934 mode. More mhbuild tests would be nice.
147 2008-08-13 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
149 * test/tests/bad-input/test-header: Add test for it.
151 * sbr/m_getfld.c: If we reach the end of the line without finding
152 a ':' when parsing a header field, treat that line as the
153 beginning of the body rather than blowing up. These messages are
154 usually spam, but it's nice to be able to at least scan them.
156 2008-08-12 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
158 * test/tests/mhshow/test-qp: Test various valid and invalid
161 * uip/mhparse.c (openQuoted): Simplify the decode-or-show for loop by
162 peeking ahead to the next byte(s) when encountering '=', and just let
163 invalid escape sequences through as literals (fixes bug #15245).
165 2008-08-12 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
167 * autogen.sh (new file): add script for running the GNU
168 autotools in the right order
169 * INSTALL: mention that you need to run autogen.sh if you
171 * docs/README.developers: mention autogen.sh rather than
172 suggesting running autoheader and autoconf by hand.
173 * test/setup-test: run autotools via autogen.sh
175 2008-08-08 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
177 * sbr/discard.c, sbr/m_getfld.c, uip/scansbr.c: Add support for
178 DragonFlyBSD stdio (from NetBSD pkgsrc).
180 2008-08-05 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
182 * uip/folder.c: chdir(nmhdir) in main rather than in dodir, which
183 is called many times. Drop the chdir in get_folder_info, which
184 served no purpose at all. If struct stat has d_type (BSD), use
185 that to skip processing (strcmp, stat, and so on) of message
186 files, mostly undoing the slow-down from the last change.
188 * configure.in: Call CHECK_TYPE_STRUCT_DIRENT_D_TYPE.
190 * aclocal.m4: Add CHECK_TYPE_STRUCT_DIRENT_D_TYPE from
193 2008-08-04 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
195 * uip/folder.c: Simplify dodir/addir/addfold. Dump hacky
196 over-optimization in addir that tried to avoid readdir after all
197 child directories had been read; this was also trying to support
198 symlinks to directories, but would have been failing (because
199 nlink may have gone to 0 with symlinks to directories remaining)
200 had the lstat usage been correct (lstat doesn't fail for normal
201 directories; should have used S_ISLNK).
203 2008-08-03 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
205 * test/setup-test: use 'set -e' so we stop on compile failure.
206 Configure --enable-debug for convenience in debugging.
208 * uip/whatnowsbr.c: bug #23319: rework the way we handle the working
209 directory when invoking the user's shell, so that we don't have
210 issues when the cwd contains a space or shell special character.
211 * test/tests/whatnow/test-attach-detach, test/tests/whatnow/test-cd,
212 test/tests/whatnow/test-ls: test cases for this.
214 * sbr/fmt_compile.c: add 'do { ... } while (0)' wrappers
215 to various multi-statement macros to avoid nasty surprises
216 if the macros are used in if() clauses.
218 * bug #23436: man/scan.man, man/forw.man, man/inc.man,
219 man/mh-chart.man, man/mhmail.man, man/mhshow.man,
220 man/mhstore.man, man/msgchk.man, man/packf.man, man/scan.man:
221 fix minor syntax errors groff warns about.
222 * test/runtest, test/README: allow test cases to report
223 that they have been SKIPped as well as PASS/FAIL
224 * test/tests/manpages/test-manpages - new test which runs groff
225 on the manpages and checks that there are no warnings.
226 * test/runalltests: ignore editor backup files
228 2008-08-03 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
230 * etc/replcomps, etc/replgroupcomps: Trim trailing whitespace from
233 2008-08-03 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
235 * sbr/fmt_compile.c: when doing an if-test on the result
236 of a function which returns a string result, check whether
237 the string is non-empty (as the documentation says we do).
238 Previously we were always testing the integer 'value'. Bug
239 spotted by Eric Gillespie.
240 * test/tests/repl/test-if-str: test case for this bug
242 2008-07-24 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
244 * test/setup-test: Run 'make clean' before building
246 2008-07-24 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
248 * test/runtest: cat test-temp-dir only once. Destroy and create
249 test Mail hierarchy here, so each test has its own independent
252 * test/setup-test: Drop needless pushd/popd, which don't exist in
253 sh anyway. Don't use aclocal, which is part of automake.
254 Don't create Mail hierarchy here (see test/runtest).
256 * test/tests/folder/test-create, tests/folder/test-total: Drop
259 * tests/pick/test-pick: Remove failing no-op test.
261 * test/tests/scan/test-scan: Write expected and actual output to
262 files and diff them. This way, if the output differs, diff
263 provides the FAILing exit code and shows the differences.
265 2008-06-12 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
266 * man/repl.man, etc/mhl.reply:
267 Add an attribution line when replying to messages.
269 2008-06-02 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
271 * h/mh.h, h/prototypes.h, sbr/done.c, uip/inc.c,
272 uip/mhbuild.c, uip/mhlist.c, uip/mhn.c, uip/mhshow.c,
273 uip/mhstore.c, uip/mhtest.c, uip/packf.c, uip/pick.c,
274 uip/rcvdist.c, uip/rcvstore.c, uip/sendsbr.c: when
275 building on gcc, use the noreturn attribute on various
276 functions (should improve code and avoid some spurious
277 'uninitialized variable' warnings).
279 2008-06-01 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
281 * docs/README.developers: update the bits about doing a
282 release announcement, now I've actually done one.
284 2008-05-22 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
286 * uip/scansbr.c: don't use MB_CUR_MAX if we aren't compiled
287 with multibyte support.
289 * uip/whatnowsbr.c: factor out common code for writing ls
290 shell command, and make it do more sensible buffer length
291 checks. Also avoid relying on the return value of sprintf(),
292 as some old systems don't return number of characters written.
294 2008-05-21 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
296 * sbr/utils.c (mh_xrealloc): don't assume realloc() can
297 handle NULL pointers; some non-POSIX realloc()s can't.
299 * sbr/dtimep.lex: add some table size declarations for the
300 benefit of elderly lexes with small defaults.
302 2008-05-18 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
304 * sbr/addrsbr.c: removed "err" from conditional, because gcc
305 correctly warned that it would always evaluate as true. It's
306 the address of a static array.
308 2008-05-16 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
310 * sbr/Makefile.in, config/Makefile.in: Don't use $< in target rules
311 in makefiles, as POSIX says it's only defined in inference rules.
313 2008-05-13 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
315 * configure.in, INSTALL: if --enable-masquerade is not
316 specified to configure, enable all supported masquerade forms.
317 This allows users to masquerade with the default
318 configuration. That seems to be more worthwhile now than
319 trying to prevent users from using it, especially with
320 single-user installations or those where a user can edit
323 2008-05-04 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
325 * bug #23167: sbr/ruserpass.c (ruserpass): make bad permissions
326 on .netrc be an instantly fatal error. Previously we returned
327 an error value; however, no caller was checking it. So now
328 ruserpass() has a void return type.
330 * bug #23163: various minor fixes for the benefit of
331 older Unixes (specifically SunOS 4):
332 reintroduce strerror() substitute implementation
333 provide memmove() substitute implementation
335 * bug #23163: fix accidentally broken 'build outside
336 source directory' feature
338 * bug #23162: sbr/dtime.c: fix stray HAVE_TM_GMTOFF that
339 wasn't updated to the new macro name.
341 2008-04-30 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
343 * mts/smtp/smtp.c: provide a callback for SASL_CB_AUTHNAME
344 (fixes issue with SASL sending the wrong username in some
345 circumstances). Thanks to <der_wachtmeister@freenet.de>
348 2008-04-29 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
350 * Revert previous attempt at fix for SASL issue as it
351 is the wrong approach.
353 * Fix in correct manner, by making sm_rrecord() and thus
354 sm_hear() set the length of the reply string correctly
355 (the SASL libraries now care if you pass in the wrong
358 * Correct various places in smtp.c where the reply string
359 might not have been correctly NUL-terminated. Includes a
360 fix for a particularly nasty and long standing screwup
361 where the buffer length counting in smhear() was totally
362 broken for continued lines from the server.
364 2008-04-29 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
366 * Cope with sasl_decode64() returning SASL_CONTINUE, as
367 happens with newer sasl libraries and LOGIN auth.
369 2008-04-27 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
371 * Updated some of the 'how to do a release' documentation.
373 * Upped the VERSION string to '1.3-dev', since 1.3-RC1 has
376 2008-04-27 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
378 * Released nmh-1.3 RC1.
380 2008-04-11 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
382 * acconfig.h, configure.in, sbr/dtime.c, sbr/pidwait.c,
383 uip/mhshowsbr.c, uip/rcvtty.c, uip/slocal.c, uip/termsbr.c:
384 move most remaining macros out of acconfig.h which is an
385 obsolete feature of autoconf
387 2008-04-05 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
389 * bug #18655: fix use of admonish() for a fatal error (should
390 be adios(); only actual effect would be wrong exit code).
391 Thanks to Craig Leres for spotting this.
393 2008-04-05 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
395 * bug #20028 (Debian bug 399271): fix code assuming that pointer
396 differences were 32 bits -- thanks to Dean Gaudet for the patch.
398 2008-01-25 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
400 * uip/mhshowsbr.c (show_all_messages): Be more generous when parsing
403 2007-11-04 Joel Reicher <joel@panacea.null.org>
405 * Changed done() link overriding to function pointer. Return type
406 is now void so that exit() can be used as done() callback. Dead
407 code return from all done()s removed, with return 1 in main()
408 following done() (should never be reached).
410 2007-08-21 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
412 * Red Hat Bug #253342: inc.c, utils.c, utils.h: When inc is run with
413 the -silent flag, don't exit(1) for no apparent reason.
415 2007-03-12 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
417 * bug #18630, #18631, #18632, #18634: various patches from
418 Craig Leres fixing error message argument problems.
420 2007-03-12 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
422 * bug #15212: configure.in, acconfig.h: remove configure test for
423 broken AT&T vi. This test was broken (it was always returning
424 failure even for non-broken vi implementations) and
425 unfixable. Nobody should be using AT&T vi any more so I have
426 simply moved it back to being a setting you can put manually into
427 acconfig.h if you must.
429 2006-10-24 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
431 * uip/sendsbr.c: with attachformat values of 1 or 2, add
432 name= portion to Content-Type header. This makes them
433 consistent with attachformat value 0. And it allows mhstore
434 to use that (file)name when extracting attachments.
436 2006-08-26 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
438 * configure.in: If we're not using dotlocking, there is no need to set
441 2006-03-30 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
443 * uip/sendsbr.c: with attachformat values of 1 or 2, only
444 generate Content-Disposition headers for MIME attachments, not
445 for the message contents themselves. Microsoft Outlook Build
446 10.0.6626, at least, doesn't show the message contents if they
447 have Content-Disposition.
449 2006-03-09 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
451 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c (decode_rfc2047): Don't close the iconv descriptor
454 2006-03-08 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
456 * (mh_strcasecmp): Rename the private strcasecmp function to
457 mh_strcasecmp. This keeps the newer gnu linker happy.
459 2006-03-05 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
461 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c: don't try to malloc 0 bytes if an RFC2047
462 encoded block is empty
464 2006-03-04 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
466 * etc/Makefile.in: use INSTALL_SCRIPT to install scripts;
467 this allows INSTALL_PROGRAM to be set to 'install -s' so
468 binaries are stripped on installation. Apparently the BSDs
471 2006-02-25 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
473 * uip/sendsbr.c: replaced st_mtim with st_mtime, that's what
474 it should have been. Added #include of h/tws.h to pick up
477 2006-02-20 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
479 * h/mh.h, h/prototypes.h, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, uip/send.c,
480 uip/sendsbr.c, uip/viamail.c, uip/whatnowsbr.c, man/send.man:
481 added -attachformat switch to send, to support alternate MIME
482 header contents when using -attach. See send man page for
485 * man/mhbuild.man: wrapped one appearance of "Content-Disposition"
486 with quotes, to be consistent with others.
488 2006-02-20 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
490 * h/utils.h, sbr/utils.c, uip/flist.c, uip/folder.c: Move duplicate
491 function num_digits into utils.c
493 2006-02-19 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
495 * sbr/m_draft.c, sbr/utils.c, uip/folder.c, uip/inc.c,
496 uip/mhstoresbr.c, uip/popi.c, uip/refile.c: Add create_folder()
497 function, replacing duplicate code during folder creation.
499 2006-02-18 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
501 * h/mime.h, h/mhparse.h, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, uip/mhfree.c,
502 man/mhbuild.man, docs/TODO: added support for an optional
503 Content-Disposition header in mhbuild (only). Its contents
504 are supplied between {}, positioned after the optional [], in
505 a mhbuild directive. If the contents do not contain a
506 "filename=" parameter, and the directive has a filename, or
507 something else that ends with "name=", then that will be used
508 to add a "filename=" parameter to the header.
510 2006-02-12 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
512 * docs/TODO: added RFC2183 to reference of RFC1806 for
513 Content-Disposition header.
515 2006-01-31 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
517 * uip/mhbuild.c, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, man/mhbuild.man: added
518 -nocontentid switch, to disable generation of Content-ID:
519 header in MIME messages. (Also added -contentid for
520 symmetry.) The default configuration of Microsoft Outlook,
521 Build 10.0.3416 in particular, doesn't see attachments in
522 incoming messages if there are Content-ID headers, see
523 http://home.cwru.edu/~wrv/eudoraoutlookfix.html. This allows
524 users to easily accomodate that by adding
525 mhbuild: -nocontentid to their .mh_profile.
527 2006-01-29 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
529 * bug 4360: uip/replsbr.c: remove trailing newlines from components
530 to fix bug with spaces at the end of Subject/References in replies
532 2006-01-18 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
534 * configure.in: use AS_HELP_STRING for formatting help messages
536 * configure.in, sbr/fmt_scan.c: add autoconf magic to support
537 old systems that don't support multibyte character sets
539 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: fix bug with insertion of newline being wrong if
540 the num function was used at the end of the format buffer
542 2006-01-17 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
544 * uip/post.c, uip/spost.c: in make_bcc_file (), use same
545 logic as in finish_headers () to detect whether there is an
546 existing From: line in the draft. If draft_from masquerade
547 flag is enabled, this allows the From: to be obeyed in the
548 Bcc, instead of the old behavior of always replacing it with
551 2006-01-17 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
553 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: more robust multi-byte/column support for field
554 widths, restoring right justification feature
556 2006-01-16 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
558 * h/aliasbr.h, h/rcvmail.h, man/Makefile.in, man/slocal.man,
559 sbr/lock_file.c, uip/aliasbr.c, uip/dropsbr.c, uip/post.c,
560 uip/slocal.c, man/mh-mts.man: remove remnants of code for MMDF
562 * uip/scansbr.c: multiply buffer size by MB_CUR_MAX so multi-byte
565 2006-01-14 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
567 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: Turn the PUTSF macro into a function capable of
568 handling multi column characters.
570 2006-01-07 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
572 * Remove sbr/strerror.c -- strerror(3) is defined in C89.
574 2006-01-06 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
576 * patch #3968: Move the add() function from its own file (add.c) and
577 into utils.c. There was also a duplicate add() function in mf.c which
580 2006-01-02 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
582 * Remove sbr/pwd.c file, moving the pwd() function into sbr/utils.c.
584 2006-01-01 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
586 * patch #3967: Create a mh_xrealloc function to prevent mistakes when
589 2006-01-01 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
591 * patch #3966: Create a mh_xmalloc function to prevent mistakes when
594 2005-12-24 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
596 * Bug #15285: Don't use $< in target rules in makefiles, as POSIX
597 says it's only defined in inference rules. (BSD make was expanding
598 $< to the empty string in the rule for building sbr/dtimep.c, which
599 causes lex to apparently hang because it's reading from stdin.)
601 2005-12-24 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
603 * Completely redo db library checking -- we now check for working
604 (include file, library) pairs rather than checking for headers and
605 libraries separately. We also now provide --with-ndbm=lib and
606 --with-ndbmheader=header options to configure to handle situations
607 where configure's autodetection fails.
609 2005-12-21 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
611 * Fix stupid accidental dependence on a bash quirk in previous
612 configure script change.
614 2005-12-15 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
616 * Improve checking for Berkeley db libraries: configure should now
617 find a suitable library on systems with new gdbm where
618 compatibility functions are in the gdbm_compat library, and on
621 2005-12-13 Michael Forrest <mef@computer.org>
623 * Fedora Bug #163760: sbr/context_read.c (context_read): Ensure that
624 the context is only read once.
626 2005-12-12 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
628 * uip/sendsbr.c (annoaux): Fix the call to annotate() fixing a bug
629 which prevented repl from properly annotating messages.
631 2005-12-07 Jon Steinhart <nmh@fourwinds.com>
633 * Fixed a bug where anno -append put the headers in the wrong place
634 if applied to a message that didn't contain any headers.
636 * Added a special value of "all" to the -number option that causes
637 anno -delete to delete all matching components instead of just
640 * Added new -preserve and -nopreserve options. Using -preserve
641 retains the original last accessed and last modified times on
644 2005-12-05 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
646 * Fedora Bug #174983: configure.in: Fix the AC_PATH_PROG default when
647 vi isn't found during build.
649 2005-11-19 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
651 * bug #14977: sbr/context_read.c: special case an MHCONTEXT of
652 "/dev/null" and don't try to lock it.
654 * bug #9228, debian bug #146449: man/mh-profile.man: make it clearer
655 that lower case environment variables (and in particular mheditor)
656 are internal to nmh and not intended to be set by the user.
658 2005-11-09 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
660 * sbr/mf.c: fix buffer overrun with absurdly long addresses
661 (only causes crashes if scan is run with '-width 16536' or similar)
663 * bug #7917: sbr/context_foil.c, sbr/context_read.c,
664 sbr/context_save.c: mark 'no context' with NULL rather than
665 "/dev/null" so we don't inadvertently try to lock /dev/null (which
666 takes up to a minute in some locking configurations and makes post
669 * patch #3913: uip/post.c: pass some globals into sm_init() so that
670 it uses SASL if necessary. (This bug was preventing Bcc'd emails
671 from being sent via SASL authenticated SMTP.)
673 * bug #9813: uip/rmf.c: don't crash if there's no Current-Folder
674 entry in the context file.
676 2005-11-13 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
678 * bug #7833: uip/Makefile.in: remove link to install-mh that caused
679 problems on some systems
681 * bug #739: Makefile.in: install target now depends on all to avoid
682 problem on case-insensitive file systems with the INSTALL file
684 2005-11-10 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
686 * Fedora Bug #172838: configure.in: Fix the AC_PATH_PROG default when
687 sendmail isn't found during build.
689 2005-11-09 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
691 * h/aliasbr.h: fix a non-ANSI prototype.
693 2005-11-08 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
695 * Simon Burge: acconfig.h, configure.in, uip/rcvtty.c, uip/slocal.c:
696 fix to handle getutent() on NetBSD
698 * INSTALL, README, docs/README.about, man/nmh.man: update most
699 references to the web page and mailing list locations
701 * bug #10230: etc/Makefile.in, man/Makefile.in, uip/Makefile.in:
702 Michael De La Rue: prepend DESTDIR to install locations
704 * configure.in, */Makefile.in, mts/smtp/smtp.c: replace obsolete
707 2005-11-06 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
709 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, sbr/fmt_scan.c, h/prototypes.h: fix various
710 possible overruns of the buffers in fmt_scan() which would cause
711 crashes if scan was run with '-width 16536' or similar.
713 * uip/popsbr.c: fix compile error which only showed up if nmh
714 was configured with --enable-apop.
716 * Debian Bug# 245932, RedHat Bug# 172388: uip/mhparse.c: don't
717 crash when handling a multipart MIME message with an invalid
718 Content-Type header (file handle was being fclose()d twice).
720 * sbr/Makefile.in: adjust lex command to work on both old and
721 new versions of flex.
723 * configure.in: add an AC_PREREQ() so autoconf 2.13 gives a helpful
724 error message and the Debian autoconf-version-guessing wrapper
725 doesn't guess wrongly.
727 2005-11-02 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
729 * Debian Bug# 320069: Nick Rusnov: uip/popsbr.c: fail when
730 kpop connection attempted without KPOP support compiled in
732 * Debian Bug# 320090: Nick Rusnov: sbr/Makefile.in: fix for newer
733 version of flex and remove autogenerated file from cvs
735 * patch #1155: uip/flist.c: speed up flist by skipping stat on
736 files with numbers as names
738 * docs/Makefile.in: include new files in distribution
740 2005-10-11 Bill Wohler <wohler@newt.com>
742 * docs/FAQ: fold questions into MH FAQ and distribute that instead
744 2005-10-05 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
746 * Harald Geyer: h/mh.h, uip/replsbr.c: back out previous change
747 (fork/vfork) and replace with code that handles the issue directly
749 2005-05-18 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
751 * Debian Bug# 143485: Nick Rusnov: h/mh.h: use fork instead of
754 * Debian Bug# 261592: Harald Geyer: uip/mhlsbr.c, uip/replsbr.c:
755 test/report error writing to stdout
757 * mts/smtp/smtp.c, uip/popsbr.c: correct SASL include file locations
759 * docs/COMPLETION-BASH: bash completion definitions from Debian
761 * patch #2863: savannah@brisammon.fastmail.fm: sbr/folder_read.c:
762 fix a bug affecting AFS where nmh was setting the READONLY flag
763 for a folder even when you do have write access to the folder
765 * Carl Mummert: h/fmt_compile.h, man/mh-format.man,
766 sbr/fmt_compile.c, sbr/fmt_scan.c: add unquote() function for
767 removing quotes from RFC-2822 encoded headers
769 2005-02-23 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
771 * use iconv to convert RFC-2047 encoded headers to the
772 character set used by the current locale
774 * sbr/folder_read.c fix Debian bug #202667: crash when a
775 message's filename overflows an int when converted
777 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
778 versions (from automake 1.9.5)
780 2005-02-21 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
782 * sbr/getpass.c fix bug where inc crashed on failing to reopen
785 2005-01-27 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
787 * Added -proxy option to inc and msgchk. Based on old patch
788 from Michael Richardson.
790 * On systems where it is available, use nl_langinfo to get the
791 character set if MM_CHARSET is unset
793 2005-01-21 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
795 * sbr/check_charset.c US-ASCII is a subset of UTF-8 so can be
796 handled directly when UTF-8 is being used
798 2004-12-17 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
800 * uip/mhmisc.c Fix -part option to mhshow/mhlist/mhstore to
801 find sub-parts of the specified part
803 2004-11-19 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
805 * h/prototypes.h, sbr/folder_addmsg.c, uip/mhstoresbr.c,
806 uip/rcvstore.c, uip/refile.c: Added mail directory argument to
807 folder_addmsg in order to make it possible to provide a path to
808 the ext_hook call that is mailpath-based. A problem existed when
809 a folder was a symbolic link and the pwd call would return the
810 path relative to the filesystem, not to mailpath. A new argument
811 was needed because there was otherwise no reasonable way to get
814 2004-11-16 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
816 * sbr/folder_pack.c: Fixed problem where the refile hook was being
817 called after a message was renamed so that it wasn't around for
818 the hook. The hook is now called before the message file is
821 * sbr/folder_addmsg.c: Fixed wrong directory for hook when
822 refiling with -src option.
824 2004-10-15 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
826 * uip/sortm.c: Fixed calling of external hooks.
828 2004-10-12 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
830 * uip/inc.c: Fixed another weird bug caused by the static
831 mailpath being overwritten.
833 * uip/sendsbr.c: Fixed bug that caused anno to mangle headers.
835 * sbr/lock_file.c: Fixed strange bug that prevented a lock from
836 ever being obtained if getting it failed the first time. The
837 problem was that the string of XXXXXX that is required by
838 mkstemp() was overwritten the first time through, and so all
839 subsequent times failed because mkstemp() failed. The fix
840 reinitializes the tmp file string.
842 * uip/inc.c: Fixed bug in which the static maildir was overwritted
843 if a format string was read from the profile.
845 * sbr/folder_delmsgs.c: Fixed bug that was producing an incorrect
846 path for the external hook.
848 2003-10-06 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
850 * uip/slocal.c, configure.in: db configuration fix for Debian; yet
851 another location for ndbm.
853 2003-09-30 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
855 * Fix 'pick' so handling of options "-list" and "-seq" are
857 * Fix 'inc' realloc error when bringing in more than 100 msgs
859 * Patches submitted by Nick Rusnov from Debian archive applied:
862 136976 - Handle binary content messages
863 143427 - mh-format.man typo
864 144098 - 'spost; should have same behavior as 'post'
865 w.r.t. mts.conf masquerade line
866 149745 - slocal ignores 'N' result of previous command
867 152728 - increase SMTP timeouts to conform to RFC 1123
868 The timeouts suggested by the RFC seem long
869 to me - but the RFC is still listed as active.
870 181867 - typo for nmh.man
872 2003-08-10 Jeffrey C Honig <jch@honig.net>
874 * Fix problem where parsing of address/date fields in fmt_compile
875 is optimized to the first instance. The first instance may be in
876 contitional code which will result in cached data to
877 be used. Instead, convert c_flags to a flags field from a boolean
878 and parse on the first use.
879 * Remove some unused flag bits.
881 Fri Jul 01 22:02:00 2003 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
883 * Applied fixes for configuration problems with Solaris and
884 systems with gdbm instead of db1 (includes bug #2024)
886 #578 - repl leaks umask
887 #1393 - sortm core dumps
888 #1650 - msh leaks file descriptors
889 #1730 - Double free() in mhfree.c:free_encoding()
890 #3356 - In-Reply-To header in default replcomps should be
892 * Revised man page for mh-format (bug #2031)
893 * New replcomps, etc, with Fcc: +outbox in default versions
895 Sat Mar 17 03:18:15 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
897 * Ken Hornstein's configure.in Cyrus SASL checks were doing
898 `x"$with_cyrus_sasl" != "no"' instead of `... != x"no"'.
900 Tue Mar 06 21:04:27 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
902 * Found some historical information about MH in RFC 808.
903 Supplemented it with info from Jerry Peek's MH book and added it
904 to docs/README.about.
906 Tue Feb 6 20:35:40 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
908 * sbr/dtime.c Use the same Y2K correction code as dtimep.lex
910 * sbr/dtimep.lex Restrict the parser to accept either
911 a numerical timezone offset, or a symbolic one (e.g. EST),
912 but not both (Since "2000 -400 EDT" might cause a double
913 subtraction of 60 minutes if both are parsed. One should be
916 Mon Feb 05 20:22:54 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
918 * -L isn't sufficient for specifying the path of the Cyrus SASL
919 shared library. That'll allow us to link successfully, but on
920 many/most OSes that won't allow us to find libsasl at runtime. On
921 Solaris, we need to specify the library path with -R as well (or
922 else the user will have to use the $LD_LIBRARY_PATH kludge, which
923 is considered harmful). This fix should be extended to other OSes
926 * Print whether we have SASL support in the "nmh configuration"
927 summary configure prints out.
929 * Say in README.developers to use `\date' in case anyone is like
930 me and has `date' aliased in their shell to use a nonstandard (but
931 subjectively more readable) format.
933 Thu Jan 25 21:15:52 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
935 * man/mh-chart.man has updated synposes of
938 Tue Jan 23 20:26:15 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
940 * etc/digestcomps tried to force dates into a
941 19xx when it's not necessary.
943 Fri Jan 19 21:22:08 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
945 * First round of manpage updates finished. They
946 are standardized on -man macros, with minimal
949 * man/tmac.h.in is no longer needed, since the
950 manpages do not depend on them anymore. Note:
951 strict "man" programs that didn't allow ".so"
952 sourcing outside the man tree will now format
953 the man pages correctly.
955 * man/vmh.1 is no longer built, since uip/vmh isn't
957 Tue Jan 9 6:01:22 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
959 * Finished manpages ali-prev
961 * Removed deprecated files from the repository.
962 Specifically, those rooted in zotnet/ and mts/sendmail
963 mts/mmdf. "cvs update -dP" will give a pruned directory
966 * Updated docs/Makefile.in to include README.manpages, and
967 uip/Makefile.in to include popi.c (which isn't being built,
968 though). This allows "make nmhdist" to create an archive that
969 is file-for-file identical to the current cvs repository.
971 Sun Dec 31 20:48:50 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
973 * Create docs/README.manpages, which details
974 the formatting rules I've been using.
978 Sat Dec 30 9:50:13 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
980 * Created a new file "DATE" to hold the date
981 of the most recent nmh release. This date will be
982 used in the manpages.
984 * Updated docs/README.developers to add the step
985 of updating DATE. Also, updated configure to
986 read in the contents of the file as the variable
989 * Started work on updating man pages, with only
990 ali finished so far. Changes: 1) no dependence
991 on an external macro file, 2) uses only
992 -man macros (although I may be mistaken in this),
993 3) syntax in the SYNOPSIS is a little more
994 in line with standard UNIX documentation, such as
995 bold flags and italicized parameters.
997 Sun Dec 24 10:06:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
999 * Updated INSTALL with information about the
1000 --with-locking option.
1002 * Fixed the Hesiod tests in configure.in. In
1003 systems where res_send was in -lresolv, this
1004 information was not being communicated to the
1005 HESIOD_LIBS var. Now, if res_send is not found
1006 in the default libraries, it's assumed to be
1007 in -lresolv, and thus -lresolv is appended to
1008 HESIOD_LIBS, which will need that to avoid
1009 undefined symbols problems.
1011 * Fixed the Kerberos tests in configure.in. New
1012 versions of Kerberos 5 have renamed -lcrypto
1013 to -lk5crypto (circa krb5 1.1 or thereabouts). The
1014 new test tries to determine if -lk5crypto exists. If so,
1015 this is a new krb5 system. If not, test for -lcrypto
1016 and the rest of old krb5. If that fails, look
1017 for a genuine krb4 installation.
1019 Fri Dec 22 22:08:51 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1021 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in msgchk.man.
1022 -snoop was documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
1024 Fri Dec 22 23:42:16 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1026 * Made a new ./configure option called
1027 "--with-locking" that allows the file
1028 locking mechanism to be chosen there instead of
1029 requiring a manual edit of config.h.
1031 * If the option is not explicitly set, or an
1032 invalid option is specified, "dot" locking is
1033 chosen. Valid options are "dot", "fcntl",
1034 "flock", and "lockf". We need a way to tell
1035 the user that these are the valid options, and
1036 change the flag "--with-locking" if it's not
1039 Fri Dec 22 19:21:29 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1041 * Remove the lex-specific memory hints at the
1042 beginning of sbr/dtimep.lex. We've already
1043 committed to supporting flex only, since
1044 lex does not easily allow us to parse a single
1045 string, as well as other problems documented
1046 below and on nmh-workers.
1048 * Added a switch statement to configure.in to
1049 test for Mac OS X. If this is the case, LDFLAGS
1050 should not contain "-s" since the linker rejects
1053 * Updated MACHINES to include Mac OS X Public Beta,
1054 as well as Linux 2.4 running glibc 2.2.
1056 Wed Dec 20 16:00:46 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1058 * Marked deprecated directories in docs/README.developers
1059 as deprecated, with pointers to the new code location.
1060 Eventually these deprecated directories should go away.
1062 Tue Dec 19 19:16:37 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1064 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in inc.man. -snoop was
1065 documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
1067 Thu Dec 14 14:32:09 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1069 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
1070 versions on ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/config, dated
1071 12-07-00. This should prevent configure from failing
1072 on newer operating systems because config.{guess,sub}
1073 couldn't correctly identify them.
1075 Thu Dec 14 1:30:44 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1077 * Fixed the circular dependency created when I moved
1078 zotnet/mts to mts/generic and merged them into libmts.
1079 mts/generic/client.c and mts/generic/mts.c are now in sbr/
1080 (and thus in libmh), which makes libmh self-contained and
1081 not depending on an external archive.
1083 * All include statements now look for mts.h in h/. The
1084 Makefiles and configure script have been modified so that
1085 mts/generic is no longer built.
1087 Mon Dec 11 22:08:07 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1089 * When Shantonu made the new libmts.a, he swapped $(MTSLIB) and
1090 libmh.a in sbr/Makefile.in so that libmh.a comes first, but this
1091 causes the build to fail on Solaris, because libmts.a has to get
1092 ruserpass() out of libmh.a. Swapping them back to the way Ken
1093 Hornstein's patch (which I applied on Jul 20) put them, with
1094 libmh.a correctly coming second. If there are times when libmts.a
1095 needs to come second, then it would appear there's a circular
1096 dependency and someone (Shantonu?) did an mts merge incorrectly.
1098 Fri Sep 8 01:36:23 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1100 * Took out bad time textual time zones like BST and JST.
1101 I found them online somewhere, but am not sure if they're
1104 Fri Sep 8 00:36:48 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1106 * Moved zotnet/mts to mts/generic. This code reorganization
1107 makes the entire zotnet tree deprecated -- bboards is unneeded,
1108 mf was was moved to sbr, tws was rewritten and moved to sbr, and
1111 * Created a new static library called libmts.a used during
1112 compilation which includes the generic mts code and the
1113 smtp/sendmail code. This supercedes the functionality of the
1114 old libsmtp.a and the remains of libzot.a.
1116 * Updated header includes to reference the new location of mts.h
1117 in mts/generic/mts.h. Also, update the configure and top-level
1118 Makefile not to descend into zotnet. Also, they don't descend
1119 into mts/mmdf and mts/sendmail (the sendmail code has been
1120 merged into the smtp code).
1122 * Added #include <h/nmh.h> to h/md5.h, since my compile was
1123 complaining about implicitly-declared memcpy and memset, which
1124 appear to be in strings.h. In any event, nmh.h should take care
1127 * When doing a "make nmhdist", notice that the generated
1128 snapshot does not include zotnet of the mts directories as noted
1129 above. Since they are no longer compiled, and I don't see any
1130 obvious code path to get to them, end-users should probably
1131 not need them. If you think otherwise, turn Makefile generation
1132 back on in configure.in and turn on recursion into those dirs
1133 in the appropriate Makefile.in
1135 Wed Sep 6 22:40:03 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1137 * Tracked down the problem in the new dtimep where time
1138 zones were being radically misreported. It was because the
1139 parser knew about military time zones (such as M or E) but in
1140 some cases did not know about the textual representation of
1141 some zones (like MET). When it encountered one of these, the
1142 date parser misread MET as the military time zone T (well, first
1143 zone M, then E, and finally T). I took military zones out, and
1144 things seem much better. Also, the default behavior of parsing
1145 time zones appears to default to GMT in the absence of better
1146 info, which is less bogus than assuming the mail came from the
1147 current time zone, which was the behavior in 1.04.
1149 Thu Aug 10 13:22:13 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1151 * Decided that limiting the message number columns to 3 on my
1152 scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD (to try to regain space taken by
1153 extra date info) was ill-conceived. It's not that tough to get
1154 past 999 messages, though I imagine it's rather rare to exceed
1155 9999. Changed these to 4. Also put the "replied / encrypted"
1156 column back in YYYYMMDD -- I've never seen it show anything but a
1157 space, but that space is useful if you use scan, grep, and awk
1158 (with the default field separator) to grab message numbers (I know
1159 -- pick should really be used for these purposes...).
1161 Mon Aug 7 20:11:09 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1163 * Modify umask set by mhshow to enable user execute bit, so that
1164 viewers that create temporary directories (e.g., lynx) will be
1165 able to access them.
1167 Thu Aug 03 17:14:08 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1169 * TODO: Allow multiple simultaneous differing contexts, probably
1170 each tied to a parent (terminal) process.
1172 Tue Aug 1 10:48:05 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
1174 * Makefile install rules should not look for generated files in
1175 the source tree -- this will happen to work when configuring and
1176 building inside the source tree but will fail when using an
1177 external build tree. Fixed etc/Makefile.in.
1179 Mon Jul 24 16:20:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1181 * When Shantonu wrote the new, more portable dtimep.lex, he left
1182 out the #ifdef DSTXXX stuff for some reason. Not a good idea, as
1183 that code is required for proper printing of numeric-offset
1184 timezones that have daylight saving time. Without that code,
1185 -0700 during DST gets printed as MST instead of PDT.
1187 * Renamed DSTXXX as ADJUST_NUMERIC_ONLY_TZ_OFFSETS_WRT_DST and
1188 added an explanatory comment by its #definition.
1190 * Updated README.developers with the fact that zotnet/tws is going away.
1192 Thu Jul 20 20:30:52 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1194 * Moved Kimmo's new "--with-hash-backup" to be output with the
1195 rest of the --with options in the configure --help output. Also,
1196 people did not preserve my alphabetization of the --with options
1197 when they added new ones. Re-alphabetized.
1199 * One more pass at README.developers now that it's clear that my
1200 previously-suggested one-line autoconf-file commit can cause
1201 unnecessary local makes and an out-of-sync stamp-h.in file, but
1202 would not cause problems for other people using the CVS files.
1204 * Ken Hornstein's SASL patch was not integrated properly with
1205 Ruud's new merged mts/sendmail code. Kimmo has since fixed nmh so
1206 it compiles, but according to Ken, the SASL stuff still does not
1207 work. Integrating a patch from him for this.
1209 * Last pass at README.developers -- Kimmo's 5-step commit was
1210 overkill. You only need 3 steps, since configure.in is the only
1211 autoconf file with the RCS $Id keyword.
1213 * Applied Kurt J. Lidl <lidl@eng.us.uu.net>'s $MAILHOST patch:
1215 I have a small patch that would be nice to be included --
1216 basically, it allows the usage of the "MAILHOST" environment
1217 variable, without having to have HESIOD turned on. I need
1218 this functionality for my environment, where we have identical
1219 /usr/local on all my machines (so I cannot just hardcode into
1220 the mts.conf file), and I have multiple POP mail servers for
1223 Modified inc.man to reflect that along with "pophost:" and -host,
1224 $MAILHOST can now activate POP mail inclusion as well.
1226 * Fixed warnings from diff on first-time install of nmh. Also
1227 added 'echo's clarifying the etc file installation activities.
1229 Tue Jul 18 19:36:59 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
1231 * Added the answer to Dan's question in README.developers.
1233 Mon Jul 17 19:10:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1235 * Clarified and made some corrections to Kimmo's README.developers
1236 changes (BTW, if anyone can explain why the RCS Ids are able to cause
1237 problems with the dependencies, please fill in the explanation --
1238 I never encountered a problem with the old single-commit method).
1240 Sat Jul 15 23:13:49 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
1242 * Add configure option --with-hash-backup so the backup prefix can
1243 be easily changed from "," to "#".
1245 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that it works with any make.
1247 * Use mkstemp in sbr/lock_file.c.
1249 * Commits of autoconf-related files apparently can't all be done
1250 in one shot due to RCS Ids changing when committing -- updated
1253 Tue Jul 11 14:18:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1255 * Clarified post.man and send.man for those not completely up on
1256 SASL terminology. "SASL encryption layers are not supported for
1257 SMTP" means that encryption is supported for the authentication
1258 but not for the subsequent data stream.
1260 Sat Jul 8 01:36:19 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
1262 * Applied Ken Hornstein <kenh@cmf.nrl.navy.mil>'s patches
1263 implementing SASL support for POP3 and SMTP. If nmh is compiled
1264 with SASL support, using the -sasl switch on the inc, msgchk,
1265 post, and send commands will enable authentication encryption for
1266 SMTP, and both authentication and data stream encryption for POP3.
1268 Sat Jun 10 18:37:59 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1270 * Merged mts/sendmail functionality into mts/smtp; switching between
1271 smtp and sendmail delivery method is now controlled by mts.conf.
1273 * If tsort cannot deal with loops, in addition to defining tsort as
1274 cat, also define lorder as echo.
1276 * Removed uip/popi.c from list of sources.
1278 Thu Jun 08 19:36:57 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1280 * New dtimep.lex didn't parse day names properly. Fixed. Also
1281 clarified ambiguous comments preceding day_map[] array (from old
1282 dtimep.lex) that probably led to the erroneous cp++ being added.
1284 Wed Jun 7 20:52:33 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1286 * Added one more mkstemp invocation to uip/spost.c (which was in a
1289 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to clean up permissions handling
1290 and error handling in uip/inc.c.
1292 Mon Jun 5 22:10:07 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1294 * Use cat instead of tsort if tsort cannot deal with loops in its
1295 input (which is the case for tsort from GNU textutils).
1297 Mon Jun 5 21:14:36 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1299 * If lockfile is present, and its dotlockfile program is setgid,
1300 inc does not need to be setgid.
1302 Sun Jun 4 21:35:40 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1304 * Added autoconf test for Miquel van Smoorenburg's liblockfile
1305 library, as found on Debian systems.
1307 * Added liblockfile support to sbr/lock_file.c.
1309 Wed May 31 7:19:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1311 * Fixed up dtimep.lex a bit. Added back memory options for AIX to
1312 increase available memory. Took out %option noyywrap, which
1313 wasn't understood by AT&T lex, as well as the -i
1314 case-insensitivity flag.
1316 Wed May 31 07:40:45 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1318 * Added a lint target to the Makefiles and a check in autoconf
1319 to determine whether lint or lclint exists on the system.
1321 Fri May 30 19:21:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1323 * etc/Makefile.in was incorrectly installing mts.conf.in and
1324 sendfiles.in -- fixed. Generated sendfiles script was not a
1325 dependency of the `all' target, and was incorrectly included in
1326 the distribution. Changed the suffix for the backed-up previous
1327 versions of the etc files from the ambiguous .old to .prev. Added
1328 call to diff -- only keep the .prev files around if different from
1329 the newly-installed versions (intentionally didn't redirect output
1330 to /dev/null so you'll notice when your changed versions are
1331 getting moved aside).
1333 * INSTALL never documented the etc/*.old thing. Documented the
1334 new etc/*.prev thing (including a note to watch for diff output).
1336 * Applied Alec Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu>'s dropsbr.c patch:
1338 In the map_write routine, a call is made to map_open and this
1339 call is supposed to set the "clear" variable to 0 or 1,
1340 depending on whether the map file is empty or not. In
1341 mh6.8.3, this worked because map_open would set "clear" by
1342 calling the mbx_Xopen routine. In nmh, the code for mbx_Xopen
1343 was merged into mbx_open, but the interface for mbx_open
1344 doesn't support the clear variable, so that functionality was
1345 lost. The map_open interface still contains "int *clear" in
1346 the prototype, but never sets it.
1348 My patch eliminates "clear" from the map_open interface (I
1349 checked to make sure that map_write is the only client of
1350 map_open). Furthermore, my patch also sets the "clear"
1351 variable properly at the beginning of map_write by calling
1352 fstat(). This eliminates the bug in that the value of "clear"
1353 being used later in the routine was just stack garbage.
1355 Having a bad value of clear causes this next bug to be
1356 triggered: The fp file pointer was being opened with fdopen,
1357 but in two of the three switch cases it wasn't being closed.
1358 In certain cases, this was causing packf to run out of file
1359 descriptors if you attempted to pack a large folder.
1361 Mon May 29 7:48:15 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1363 * Moved the date parsing routines from zotnet/tws to sbr/ (and
1364 tws.h to h/). Updated all source files to reflect to new location
1367 * Rewrote dparsetime (in dtimep.lex -> dtimep.c) to replace the
1368 old zotnet/tws/dtimep.c, dtimep.lex, lexstring.c, lexedit.c, and
1369 dtimep.c-lexed. It should now work with flex (although untested
1370 with lex), and requires no sed-ing. For now, I have the lexed
1371 version in the distribution, so that end-users don't need to worry
1372 about running it through flex/lex. I have not added back support
1373 for guessing the time zone when it's not specified.
1375 Sun May 28 17:44:15 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1377 * Added autoconf check for getutent().
1379 * Changed uip/rcvtty.c and uip/slocal.c to use getutent() and
1380 friends. Since I can only check on Linux, please check if
1381 this works on other systems.
1383 Sun May 28 14:58:49 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1385 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to uip/scansbr.c for more
1386 checks for write failures.
1388 * Unlink temporary file properly in uip/rcvtty.c.
1390 * Moved viamail from bindir to libdir.
1392 * Changed sendfiles into sendfiles.in, so that path to viamail
1395 * Added gzip support to sendfiles.
1397 * Added References header to replcomps and replgroupcomps.
1399 Sun May 28 14:39:31 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1401 * Fixed m_getfld bug which caused segmentation faults when
1402 incorporating messages which ended in multiple linefeeds crossing
1405 Fri May 26 13:21:59 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1407 * msh has been unable to show MIME messages ever since 1.0. Alec
1408 Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu> tracked down the problem to the
1409 -show flag being passed to mhshow. mhshow is equivalent to the
1410 old mhn -show, so we don't need the -show anymore. Removed it.
1412 Fri May 12 02:51:21 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1414 * zotnet/bboards is not longer built by default. Goal is to move
1415 the assorted functions in zotnet into sbr or some more logical
1418 * Moved zotnet/mf to sbr, and changed mf.h references accordingly,
1419 as well as Makefiles.
1421 Thu May 11 02:21:34 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1423 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that both SRCS and OBJS aren't
1424 seperately and redundantly defined, but so that OBJS is a
1425 pattern-substituted version of SRCS with suffix .c -> .o. This
1426 should make maintainability easier.
1428 * Added section to MACHINES indicating what platforms nmh is known
1429 to compile and work on, just to give users peace of mind, or
1430 something. This is by no means complete or exhaustive, so add
1431 whatever you know works.
1433 Tue May 09 20:38:04 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1435 * Alphabetized Shantonu's $pop_kinds output on configure's "pop is
1436 enabled" line. If POP3 is the only kind of POP enabled, say so,
1437 rather than just saying "yes" (which is ambiguous).
1439 * Fixed four warnings in Shantonu's new getpass.c. Needed to
1440 #include <stdlib.h> for calloc(), <unistd.h> for ttyname(), and
1441 "h/mh.h" for adios(). Also changed ch from char to int to get rid
1442 of "comparison is always 1 due to limited range of data type" on EOF.
1444 * Added steps to README.developers saying to change the version
1445 number to X.Y.Z+dev. Did a little rearranging and changed the FTP
1446 dir from /home/ftp to /var/ftp to reflect Doug's new machine.
1448 * Changed configure.in to use gcc -Wall even without
1449 --enable-debug, to prevent developers compiling optimized from
1450 introducing warnings, and to give end-users a warm, fuzzy feeling
1451 as they (hopefully) see no warnings come out (except perhaps on
1452 the lex output file) even with -Wall.
1454 * Renamed getpass() to nmh_getpass() since the prototype for
1455 getpass() varies from OS to OS, and we want to _always_ use our
1456 version of the function. Fixed all the callers to use
1457 nmh_getpass() and added it to prototypes.h. Semi-arbitrarily
1458 upped MAX_PASSWORD_LEN from 128 to 256. buf was being calloc()'d
1459 and the memory leaked -- should have just been declared as static
1460 char array. Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the
1461 copyright message, as this version has been changed significantly
1462 from the BSD version.
1464 * Added "nmh-local functions to use in preference to OS versions"
1465 section to README.developers (currently just says to use
1466 nmh_getpass() instead of system getpass()).
1468 * Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the copyright message
1469 in ruserpass.c also.
1471 * Added mts.conf.5 page per Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s
1474 This happens on solaris:
1477 windex entry incorrect: mts.conf(5) not found.
1478 No manual entry for mts.conf.
1482 % echo ".so man5/mh-tailor.5" > mts.conf.5
1484 done in the man5 directory. We need to add 'mts.conf.5' as a
1485 reference sourcing mh-tailor.5.
1487 Mon May 08 23:51:55 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1489 * Doug informed me that the way I had restored the "lost" version
1490 histories was wrong, because `cvs checkout's of old versions of
1491 nmh wouldn't work properly. It occurs to me that this could be
1492 fixed by simply deleting those tags in the new-location *,v files,
1493 but oh well. I'm putting everything back to the way Doug
1494 originally had it. To get the old version history for a file that
1495 used to be in the top directory, you'll need to "blindly" do a
1496 `cvs log' there (even though you won't have a local copy of the
1497 file in that directory). `cvs diff' will no longer be able to
1498 diff pre-move versions vs. post-move versions -- you'll have to do
1499 a lot of manual gyrations with `cvs checkout' and then use `diff'.
1501 * I had alphabetized the --configure options in the --help output
1502 awhile back, but Shantonu added --enable-apop just under
1503 --enable-pop. Put it in alphabetical order and clarified what
1504 --enable-apop does vs. --enable-pop and --with-krb4. Also changed
1505 --with-mts help line from "mail transport agent" to "mail
1506 transport agent/service" so the 's' in "mts" doesn't seem to come
1509 * Added two steps to "releasing nmh" in README.developers. After
1510 making the tarball, it's a good idea to diff the tree vs. the CVS
1511 tree to make sure no files got left out, and then to chown the
1512 files so that they're owned by root, preventing a Trojaning attack
1513 by a malicious remote user with a UID matching yours.
1515 * Changed DIFFERENCES to say that RPOP is not currently supported
1516 rather than implying it by saying that APOP, KPOP, and POP[3] are.
1518 Sun May 07 18:16:43 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1520 * Imported NetBSD version of getpass() and made extensive
1521 revisions for compatibility with programs that pipe the password
1522 to stdin, such as exmh.
1524 * Removed tests for system ruserpass() which sometimes gave
1525 phantom positive results. Also, bext to use internal functions if
1526 we ever want to change .netrc format to something else, or access
1529 Sat May 06 08:28:09 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1531 * Restored lost version histories for those moved files by doing a
1532 manual `mv' in the CVSROOT on mhost. CVS badly needs a `cvs mv'
1533 command so that you can move files (without having physical access
1534 to the CVSROOT) without losing versioning. Put MACHINES back at
1535 the top level as it needs to be read before building. Fixed DIST
1536 variable in {.,docs}/Makefile.in to reflect that and to add
1537 missing entry for "INSTALL" file.
1539 Sat May 06 13:13:07 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1541 * Re-cleaned up nmh documentation (by moving things to docs
1542 subdir) and modified Makefile & configure.in to handle the change.
1544 Mon Apr 17 21:28:40 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1546 * Scott Blachowicz pointed out that the configure --help output
1547 for --enable-masquerade was misleading. Clarified.
1549 Mon Apr 17 19:01:00 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1551 * APOP support can be compiled in to inc and msgchk using
1554 * To access an APOP host, specify -apop on the command line
1555 along with any -host or -user option.
1557 Fri Apr 14 23:10:44 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1559 * Upped the version number to 1.0.4+dev until the next nmh release.
1561 * Added a "releasing nmh" section to README.developers, while the
1562 process was fresh in my mind.
1564 Fri Apr 14 18:21:34 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1566 * Added new files README.developers, ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6, and
1567 ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html to DIST target in Makefile.in.
1569 * Released nmh-1.0.4.
1571 Tue Apr 11 21:37:03 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1573 * Applied Brian Campbell <bacam@tardis.ed.ac.uk>'s mhn.defaults.sh
1576 It appears that there shouldn't be quotes around the %s in the
1577 iso-8859-1 charset entry; xterm passes the remaining arguments
1578 to the program, quoting them means that xterm thinks they're
1579 part of the program's name.
1581 This %s isn't the same as the "Insert content subtype" one from
1582 mhshow-show-* -- it doesn't come from MIME headers and is safe not
1585 Sun Apr 09 13:03:59 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1587 * added check in fmt_compile() to handle a single-character
1588 format string. fmt_compile() depends on having an array of
1589 format characters with an empty item at the end. A
1590 single-character format would cause programs using this
1591 function to segfault because the algorithm used to decide on
1592 the length of the array mistakenly created a single-item array
1593 when the format string was one character. This eventually
1594 caused problems when the program attempted to test item+1
1597 Thu Apr 06 21:53:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1599 * Richard Coleman threw out a lot of old MH-specific files in nmh.
1600 Much of the stuff, indeed, is not worth saving, but there are
1601 nuggets that are very worthwhile, and should probably be added
1602 back in. Most important, IMHO, are the MH change logs, as they
1603 can help answer questions like "Why is this code like this?" or
1604 "How long has this been broken?" or "What was this ever used for?"
1606 I've added a new file to the nmh tree called
1607 ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6. It's cobbled together from the
1608 mh-6.8.4/papers/mh*/MHCHANGES files. I've re-ordered the entries
1609 to go from newest at the top to oldest at the bottom to match the
1610 ChangeLog convention. Unfortunately there are no change logs for
1611 versions of MH prior to 3 in the MH tar files available at
1612 <ftp://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/mh>. Also, it appears to me that there
1613 are MH-6.6 changes that aren't documented in the logs.
1615 I've also added ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html. This is
1616 based on mh-6.8.4/papers/changes/mh-changes.ms. The nroff format
1617 and its "catman"-type output are a pain to deal with, but I was
1618 loath to throw away the formatting, so I converted the file to
1619 HTML. The only actual markup in the body are the "<B>" and "<U>"
1620 tags, and "<" and ">" instead of '<' and '>', so it's quite
1621 doable to view the file in plain ASCII mode as well. Note that
1622 some of the changes this file documents as having been made in
1623 MH-6.8.4 may not be present in nmh -- Richard started with 6.8.3
1624 and later put in certain 6.8.4 stuff.
1626 Wed Apr 05 21:09:28 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1628 * Applied Eric Schnoebelen <eric@cirr.com>'s mhshowsbr.c patch
1629 fixing apparent bugs in Dan Winship's new security quoting code:
1631 Since upgrading, I've been getting the following errors
1632 while attempting to process some MIME messages:
1634 (1) Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
1639 (2) line 1/10 (END)Segmentation fault (core dumped)
1641 (2) appears to be due to the testing of an unset pointer in
1642 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux(). (1) appears to be caused by
1643 mis-quoting a filename being handed to the shell in
1644 mhshowsbr.c:show_content_aux().
1646 Resolving the pointer reference issue in
1647 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux() turned up a similar mis-quoting
1648 problem in the routine.
1650 Tue Mar 28 16:17:39 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1652 * Applied Todd.Miller@courtesan.com's patch to dropsbr.c to
1653 prevent core dumping on packf. Here's the note from his message:
1655 Since sizeof(buffer) == sizeof(tmpbuffer) packf will dump
1656 core on a file w/o a From line with a line >= BUFSIZ.
1657 I noticed this because I had a junk file in my mail
1660 Fri Mar 17 11:59:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1662 * wesley.craig@umich.edu did not document his previous KPOP patch,
1663 so I did so, and asked him to check what I wrote. Unfortunately
1664 he didn't notice my misunderstanding of his patch. I wrote that
1665 if you #define POPSERVICE "kpop", inc and msgchk will use KPOP
1666 exclusively, but if you leave it as "pop3", you can use Wesley's
1667 new -kpop switch on a given invocation. Instead, however, -kpop
1668 turned out to be necessary on every invocation, and a KPOP user
1669 complained. Applied Wesley's new patch, which makes things work
1670 like I thought his original patch did. After that, did one more
1671 clarifying pass to the documentation in inc.man and msgchk.man.
1673 Wed Mar 15 18:45:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1675 * When I fixed the long-standing makedir() bugs in January, I had
1676 the code call strtoul(..., 0), which I believed to be safe as all
1677 modes specified as ASCII constants in the nmh code started with a
1678 leading zero (signifying octal), which I did as it would work if
1679 internal constants were ever changed to hex. Unfortunately I was
1680 unaware of the "Folder-Protect:" .mh_profile entry, which
1681 mh-profile.man documents as an octal-only constant, with no
1682 leading zero required. I've changed the strtoul() call to an
1683 atooi() call and removed the misleading leading zeroes on the
1684 ASCII octal constants in the code and man pages. Also changed the
1685 "Folder-Protect:" example in the man page to something more
1686 interesting than a duplication of the default.
1688 * When I added my --enable-masquerade option, you'll note that I
1689 didn't make it --enable-nmh-masquerade. I find the --enable-nmh-*
1690 options too wordy and I'm not sure why Richard went that route.
1691 I've renamed them to just --enable-*, but the old versions will
1692 still work as well (they just aren't advertised).
1694 * Added a line to the "nmh configuration" output saying whether
1697 * Added a new README.developers file. From the file:
1699 This file is intended to provide a few tips for anyone doing
1700 development on nmh. Developers who learn things "the hard
1701 way" about the nmh codebase (as opposed to local info best
1702 encoded in a comment) are encouraged to share their wisdom
1705 Currently the topics are "autoconf files" and "directory structure".
1707 Tue Mar 14 12:41:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1709 * Applied, after some finessing,
1710 Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s --with-smtpservers patch:
1712 Here's a patch that allows you to add
1714 --with-smtpservers=<some.host.name>
1716 to the ./configure command line to set the "servers: " line in
1717 etc/mts.conf. Around here, we use "mailhost" so that all
1718 machines in the current domain just talk to a central machine
1719 and nothing else runs an MTA. Now, I can use
1721 --with-smtpservers=mailhost
1723 instead of having to remember to fix this by hand (and often
1724 forgetting to do so!).
1726 * Inspired by Simon's patch, added an --enable-masquerade option
1727 to configure. It will set the "masquerade:" line of mts.conf.
1728 You may specify a subset of the three types of masquerading, like
1729 --enable-masquerade="draft_from mmailid", or leave off explicit
1730 arguments to enable all three types.
1732 * Alphabetized the --enable and --with options in configure.in and
1733 INSTALL and added documentation of the two new options to the latter.
1735 * Added new dependency for mts.conf: Makefile. If this isn't
1736 done, then when you reconfigure nmh with new values for
1737 --enable-masquerade or --with-smtpservers, you'll fail to get an
1738 updated copy of mts.conf.
1740 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtimep.lex patch:
1742 It seems that some MUA's didn't handle y2k very well - ELM
1743 seems to be one of them, and Ultrix's DXmail (based on MH!).
1744 I've got a few emails this month that look like:
1746 575 Jan 00 Xxxxxx Xxxx 3603 ...
1748 22+ Jan 00 Xxx Xxxxx 1771 ...
1750 The first has "15 Jan 100" as the date and the second has
1751 "19 Jan 00" as the date. The following works around this so
1752 that scan, show, sortm, etc work ok.
1754 I put Simon's patch under the control of a new #define called
1755 FIX_NON_Y2K_COMPLIANT_MUA_DATES. There's some commentary in
1756 acconfig.h about when you might not want to #define it.
1758 * Created new dtimep.c-lexed with Simon's change using dtimep.lex
1759 lexed on Solaris 2.6. Added missing dependency in
1760 zotnet/tws/Makefile.in for dtimep.c: dtimep.c-lexed.
1762 * Added scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD format files.
1764 Mon Mar 13 21:32:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1766 * Applied Sullivan N. Beck <sbeck@cise.ufl.edu>'s mhshow-suffix patch:
1768 With the patch below, you can add lines like:
1770 mhshow-suffix-application/msword: .doc
1771 mhshow-suffix-application/PostScript: .ps
1773 to the mhn.defaults file to append the given suffix to a
1774 scratch file. This allows applications which require a
1775 certain suffix to run properly.
1777 * Removed -force_html from lynx entry in mhn.defaults.sh (I
1778 believe older versions of lynx lack that option) and added
1779 "mhshow-suffix-text/html: .html".
1781 * Modified username_extension masquerading to only use the
1782 extended address on generated [Resent-]From: lines and SMTP
1783 envelope From:. With Neil's original implementation, nmh's global
1784 idea of the username was changed, which would result in inc lying
1785 and saying you had no new mail because it was looking for a
1786 mailbox called, for instance, "dan-nmh" (where username was "dan"
1787 and $USERNAME_EXTENSION was "-nmh").
1789 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtime.c patch:
1791 There's a wrap-around problem that affects the implementation
1792 of Zeller's congruence in dtime.c. This causes the day-of-week
1793 calculations to fail for dates after Feb 29, 2000 (probably up
1794 until some year far in the future).
1796 Mon Mar 06 12:20:20 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1798 * Applied Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s msh.c patch:
1800 I finally tracked down the problem in msh that was causing
1801 errors whenever I tried to examine a 'mmdf' style mailbox.
1803 It turns out that not enough memory was being allocated with
1804 calloc(), causing memory pointers to be overwritten and
1807 Fri Mar 03 16:07:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1809 * Changed the new "plussed_user" option to mts.conf's
1810 "masquerade:" to "username_extension" after getting feedback from
1811 qmail users, who use '-' as a separator rather than '+'. Removed
1812 checking of $USERPLUS variable. Now check $USERNAME_EXTENSION,
1813 which needs to include the appropriate separator for your MTA
1814 ('-', '+', or whatever) as its first character.
1816 Thu Mar 02 23:04:30 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1818 * Added a new "boolean" type to mh.h and TRUE and FALSE constants.
1820 * Added a note to DIFFERENCES stating that it's out-of-date
1821 (Richard was the last one to update it) and that we should
1822 consider only documenting incompatibilities with MH there.
1824 * Implemented (and documented) a third kind of username
1825 masquerading: "plussed user" masquerading. This one was suggested
1826 by Neil Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>. It's based on sendmail's
1827 "plussed user" feature, where mail sent to <user>+<string> will be
1828 delivered to <user>. When it's enabled, it's controlled by the
1829 $USERPLUS environment variable. How is it enabled? Well, that
1832 * Renamed the "mmailid:" setting in mts.conf to "masquerade:", and
1833 changed it so that rather than being a boolean, it can be set to
1834 any combination of the three values "draft_from", "mmailid", and
1835 "plussed_user". Thus it is now possible to enable the three types
1836 of masquerading individually.
1838 * Fixed a bug with "mmailid" masquerading (dating back to MH?)
1839 where if it was turned on, ','s would no longer be considered
1840 GECOS field delimiters.
1842 Wed Mar 01 23:30:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1844 * Changed the GECOS-field '&' translation behavior to be
1845 controlled by the BSD42 #define rather than GCOS_HACK, since it's
1846 apparently always appropriate on OSes where BSD42 is #defined, and
1847 never appropriate on any other OSes. Thanks to Kimmo Suominen for
1848 responding to my "What is this code here for?" comment in mts.c
1849 and explaining the feature.
1851 Mon Feb 28 21:50:29 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1853 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3+dev (ideally this should be
1854 done by whoever makes a release tar file, immediately after doing
1857 * Applied Paul Fox <pgf-spam@foxharp.boston.ma.us>'s scansbr.c
1858 patch, posted to comp.mail.mh, which he says prevents loss of mail
1859 when inc'ing into a full filesystem.
1861 * Changed "echo > stamp-h.in" in Makefile.in to "date > stamp-h.in"
1862 so that stamp-h.in will be different each time configure.in and
1863 related files are changed, making it easier to check it in (which
1864 is necessary to prevent unnecessary autoconf calls).
1866 * My declaration of initgroups() in slocal.c to eliminate the "no
1867 prototype" warning wasn't portable (FreeBSD 3.[23] choked). Now
1868 use AC_EGREP_HEADER to see where initgroups() is declared, if
1871 Sun Feb 20 12:17:15 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1873 * Fix security hole in mhshowsbr.c which allowed untrusted shell
1874 code to be executed.
1876 * Released nmh 1.0.3.
1878 Thu Feb 10 10:54:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1880 * Oops. %-escapes on mhstore lines in mhn.defaults.sh should not
1881 be surrounded by single quotes, as a shell is not spawned when
1882 just saving files, and the filenames will end up with literal
1883 quotes embedded in them.
1885 Fri Feb 04 12:29:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1887 * Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
1888 got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
1889 the -help output. One theory is that they were making reference
1890 to the fact that clearly you know about the -help option since
1891 you're currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea
1892 to overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
1893 supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
1896 The other theory is that because you can say something like
1897 "mhstore -" and get "mhstore: - ambiguous. It matches" followed
1898 by the same list of switches you get with -help, they were saying
1899 you can "sorta" abbreviate "-help" as "-". You don't get the
1900 "Usage:" string, though, so it's not really the same thing.
1902 Thu Feb 03 17:52:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1904 * Applied wesley.craig@umich.edu's KPOP patches. According to him:
1906 The following patch fixes a problem with requesting a
1907 service key for a machine that has multiple 'A' records. It
1908 also makes "-kpop" a command line option, for users who
1909 would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".
1911 Did no testing of the new features, as I don't have access to a
1914 * Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
1916 * Modified INSTALL and config.h.in to reflect the new -kpop feature.
1918 Fri Jan 28 17:39:24 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1920 * All %-escapes in mhn.defaults that actually expand to something
1921 should be surrounded by single quotes. Added quotes to the ones
1922 in mhn.defaults.sh that were missing them.
1924 * Added check for lynx to write mhshow-show-text/html line in
1927 Thu Jan 27 12:22:25 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1929 * makedir() had multiple bugs dating back to MH. An octal
1930 constant was apparently being interpreted as decimal, resulting in
1931 directories with no user read or execute permissions, making
1932 nested directory creation fail. And there wasn't even an
1933 _attempt_ to set desired permissions (e.g. from "Folder-Protect:"
1934 in .mh_profile) on the outer directories of a nested directory.
1936 * A second `make install' would always fail because the check for
1937 whether mh_profile.5 existed was written incorrectly.
1939 Wed Jan 26 02:22:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1941 * Added documentation on both types of masquerading to post's man
1944 Tue Jan 25 22:58:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1946 * Doug's portability fix of my setgid inc autodetection had a
1947 caching bug -- if you re-ran configure, uip/Makefile would be
1948 corrupted, and installation would bomb out on OSes where inc needs
1951 * Implemented a new kind of email address masquerading. Usually,
1952 when a user writes a custom "From:" header in a draft, nmh uses it
1953 rather than generating one. However, the user's true address is
1954 used in the SMTP envelope "From:" and is revealed in the "Sender:"
1955 header. Now, when mmailid is set to non-zero, the envelope
1956 "From:" uses the address specified in the draft "From:" header,
1957 and there is no "Sender:" header. This is useful when sending on
1958 behalf of a remote POP3 account or when remote mail robots
1959 incorrectly use the envelope "From:" in preference to the body
1960 "From:". This processing has only been implemented for post, not
1961 for the undocumented spost (which was already missing some "From:"
1962 processing that post has).
1964 Mon Jan 24 22:26:06 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1966 * Got rid of the rest of the gcc -Wall warnings that I didn't have
1967 time for on 1999-07-15 (and, it would seem, some new ones people
1968 introduced since then). The primary ones were the warnings that
1969 default prototypes were being used for [v]snprintf() and
1970 str[n]casecmp(). As of right now, there are _no_ compilation
1971 warnings except on dtimep.c-lexed (at least under AIX 4.1.5 and
1974 Sun Jan 2 23:42:18 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1976 * Move mhtest from bindir to libdir.
1978 * Move sendfiles from libdir to bindir.
1980 * Updated sendfiles manpage to reflect this change.
1982 * Added documentation for -build and -file switches to repl and
1983 forw manpages (patch from Peter Maydell).
1985 * Fixed interaction between specifying -cc in profile and -group on
1988 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1990 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
1991 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
1992 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
1995 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1997 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
1998 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
1999 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
2000 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
2001 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
2002 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).
2004 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2006 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
2008 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2010 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
2011 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
2012 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
2013 caught again. This works for now.
2015 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
2017 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2019 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
2020 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
2022 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
2024 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
2025 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
2027 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
2029 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
2031 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2033 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
2034 changes. Both need more cleanup.
2036 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2038 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
2039 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
2040 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
2041 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
2042 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
2045 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2047 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
2048 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
2049 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
2051 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
2052 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
2055 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
2057 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
2058 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
2059 to a directory on another device with more free space.
2061 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
2063 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
2064 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
2066 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
2068 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
2071 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
2072 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
2074 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
2075 macros, regardless of platform.
2077 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
2078 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
2080 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
2081 with x-conversions=gzip.
2083 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2085 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
2088 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
2089 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
2090 implicit definition of ioctl().
2092 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
2093 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
2094 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
2095 want to mess with them.
2097 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2099 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
2100 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
2102 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
2103 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
2105 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
2106 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
2107 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
2109 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
2110 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
2111 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
2113 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
2114 function initgroups.
2116 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
2119 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
2120 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
2123 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
2124 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
2127 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
2128 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
2132 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2134 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
2135 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
2136 preventing compilation on at least linux.
2138 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
2139 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
2141 Thu Sep 09 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2143 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
2145 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
2146 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
2147 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
2148 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
2150 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
2151 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
2153 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
2155 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
2157 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
2159 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
2160 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
2162 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
2164 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
2165 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
2167 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
2168 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
2169 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
2170 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
2172 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
2173 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
2175 Sat Jun 09 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2177 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
2178 substitute it for mktemp if available.
2180 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2182 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
2183 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
2186 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
2188 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
2190 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
2192 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
2193 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
2195 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
2196 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
2197 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
2199 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
2200 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
2201 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
2203 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
2204 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
2205 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
2207 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
2208 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
2211 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
2212 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
2214 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
2215 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
2217 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
2218 <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
2220 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
2221 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
2222 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
2224 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
2225 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
2227 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
2228 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
2229 <elleron@servtech.com>.
2231 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
2232 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
2235 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
2236 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
2238 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
2239 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
2240 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
2241 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
2243 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
2244 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
2246 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2250 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
2251 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
2252 would not be changed.
2254 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
2255 one from the Apache web server.
2257 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
2258 (this should have been done a long time ago).
2260 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
2261 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
2262 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
2264 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
2266 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
2268 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
2269 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
2272 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
2273 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
2274 removes a bad race condition.
2276 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
2279 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
2280 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
2281 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
2283 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
2284 sequence information.
2286 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
2287 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
2289 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
2292 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
2295 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
2297 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
2298 interpret 034 as octal.
2300 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
2302 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
2303 mhstore, and mhbuild.
2305 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
2306 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
2308 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
2309 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
2311 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
2312 in the c_cefile structure when building.
2314 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
2315 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
2317 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
2318 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
2319 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
2321 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
2322 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
2323 and mhshow. Updated man pages
2325 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
2327 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
2329 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
2330 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
2333 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
2335 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
2336 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
2338 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
2339 header field information.
2341 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
2342 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
2344 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
2345 values when parsing a content.
2347 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
2348 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
2350 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
2351 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
2353 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
2354 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
2356 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
2357 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
2359 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
2361 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
2363 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
2365 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
2367 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
2368 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
2371 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
2372 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
2374 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
2375 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
2376 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
2377 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
2378 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
2379 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
2382 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
2384 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
2385 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
2386 buffer length checks for this parameter.
2388 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
2389 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
2391 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
2393 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
2394 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
2395 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
2396 of the limits on the length of command lines.
2398 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
2399 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
2402 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
2403 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
2404 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
2405 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
2408 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2410 * Released nmh-0.27.
2412 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
2413 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
2415 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
2416 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
2417 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
2418 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
2421 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
2422 mhbuild returns an error.
2424 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
2425 rename the draft file.
2427 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
2428 use a global variable.
2430 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
2431 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
2433 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
2434 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
2436 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
2437 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
2438 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
2440 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
2441 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
2443 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
2444 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
2447 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
2448 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
2451 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
2452 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
2454 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
2455 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
2456 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
2458 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
2459 to new function output_content_folder.
2461 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
2462 new function output_content_file.
2464 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
2465 to new function parse_format_string.
2467 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
2468 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
2469 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
2470 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
2472 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
2473 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
2474 message/external file from ftp.
2476 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
2477 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
2478 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
2480 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
2481 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
2484 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
2487 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
2488 new file mhstoresbr.c
2490 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
2493 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
2494 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
2496 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
2497 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
2499 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
2500 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
2501 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
2503 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
2505 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
2507 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
2508 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
2511 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
2512 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
2514 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
2517 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
2519 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2521 * Released nmh-0.26.
2523 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
2524 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
2525 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
2526 is still the same (dashstuffing).
2528 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
2529 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
2530 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
2531 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
2532 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
2534 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
2535 But it is not on by default.
2537 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
2538 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
2540 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
2542 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
2544 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
2546 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
2548 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
2549 number of the "cur" message when packing.
2551 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2553 * Released nmh-0.25.
2555 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
2556 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
2557 uses the original name of the library.
2559 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
2560 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
2563 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
2564 list_content and list_debug.
2566 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
2568 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
2569 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.
2571 1998-02-27 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2573 * Released nmh-0.24.
2575 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
2577 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
2578 are given, that order doesn't matter.
2580 * Fix bug in seq_list.c when realloc'ing for
2581 large sequence line.
2583 1998-02-23 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2585 * Released nmh-0.23.
2587 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
2589 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
2590 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan
2591 content, decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary
2592 string). I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
2594 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
2595 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
2598 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
2600 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
2602 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
2604 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
2605 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
2607 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
2608 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.
2610 * Add note to MACHINES file that on Linux, configure
2611 doesn't find the functions sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
2613 * Fix configuration for machines that don't have (or find)
2614 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
2616 1998-02-11 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2618 * Released nmh-0.22.
2620 * Add a configure check for sigsetjmp. Add some conditional
2621 #define's in h/signals.h in case it's not found.
2623 * Added additional notes about -auto switch in mhn man page.
2625 * Added note about MM_CHARSET environment variable to
2626 mh-profile(5) man page.
2628 * Fix signal problem in mhn.c (change setjmp/longjmp to
2629 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp).
2631 1998-02-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2633 * Released nmh-0.22-pre1.
2635 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
2636 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
2638 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
2640 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
2641 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
2642 entry point for parsing MIME files.
2644 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
2645 source message on the standard input.
2647 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
2649 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
2650 rather than -rfc934mode.
2652 * Fix mhbuild, so that Content-Description and RFC-822 comments
2653 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
2656 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
2657 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).
2659 * Restore HP specific code to zotnet/tws/lexstring.c. Apparently
2662 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2664 * Released nmh-0.21.
2666 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
2667 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.
2669 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what transfer
2672 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what character set
2673 to use for text contents.
2675 * Removed old hpux specific code from zotnet/tws/lexstring.c
2677 1998-02-02 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2679 * Released nmh-0.21-pre2.
2681 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
2683 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
2684 header fields as per RFC-2047.
2686 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
2687 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
2688 spaces between encoded word are.
2690 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
2692 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
2693 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
2695 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
2696 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
2697 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
2699 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
2701 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
2702 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
2704 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.
2706 * Added support for %(decode) to fmtdump.c.
2708 * check_charset() now accepts US-ASCII as a subset of any
2709 ISO-8859-X character set.
2711 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
2714 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
2715 permissions, not write permissions.
2717 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
2718 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
2720 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
2723 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2725 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
2727 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
2728 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
2730 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
2731 message contains valid character set.
2733 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
2734 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
2736 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
2737 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
2739 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
2740 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
2741 between an encoded word and normal text.
2743 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
2744 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
2746 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
2747 as a RFC-2047 header field.
2749 * The command install-mh now recognizes the switches -version
2752 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
2753 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
2756 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
2757 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
2759 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
2760 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
2762 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
2764 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2766 * Released nmh-0.20.
2768 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
2770 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.
2772 * Changed the default format file for mhl (mhl.format) to
2773 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
2774 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
2776 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
2777 and the To: line was missing.
2779 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
2781 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2783 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
2785 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
2786 watch the POP transaction.
2788 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
2789 first, and use it if available.
2791 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
2792 first, and use it if available.
2794 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2796 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
2798 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
2799 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
2800 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
2803 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
2804 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
2805 returns the state FLDPLUS.
2807 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
2808 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
2811 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
2813 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
2814 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
2816 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
2818 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
2819 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
2821 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
2822 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
2823 message to which you are replying.
2825 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
2826 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
2827 making group replies.
2829 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
2831 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2833 * Released nmh-0.19.
2835 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
2836 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
2838 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
2839 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
2840 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
2841 to the end of the man page.
2843 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
2844 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
2845 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
2846 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
2847 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
2848 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
2850 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
2853 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
2854 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
2855 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
2857 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
2858 the next available number above the message number you wish
2861 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
2862 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
2864 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
2865 file sbr/seq_print.c
2867 * flist will now update the current folder.
2869 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
2870 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
2871 but now undocumented.
2873 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
2876 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
2877 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
2879 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
2881 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
2882 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
2884 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2886 * Released nmh-0.18.
2888 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
2889 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
2890 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
2892 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
2893 retains the public/private status of sequences.
2895 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
2896 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
2897 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
2898 previous public/private status.
2900 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
2903 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
2906 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
2907 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
2908 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
2910 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
2911 take option to determine whether it should get current
2912 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
2913 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
2915 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
2917 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
2918 wait for stopped processes.
2920 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
2921 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
2923 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2925 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
2927 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
2928 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
2930 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
2931 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
2933 * Change the way that memory for message status is
2934 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
2935 the folder/message structure. This required changing
2936 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
2938 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
2941 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
2944 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
2946 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
2947 the debugging output.
2949 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
2950 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
2952 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2954 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
2956 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
2957 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
2959 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
2961 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
2962 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
2963 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
2964 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
2965 in the given sequence.
2967 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
2968 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
2969 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
2970 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
2971 subdirectories of a given directory.
2973 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
2974 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
2975 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
2977 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
2978 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
2980 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
2982 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
2985 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
2986 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
2987 fields are now calculated at runtime.
2989 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
2990 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
2991 are calculated at runtime.
2993 Sun Nov 30 19:14:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2995 * Released nmh-0.18-pre2.
2997 * Add paragraph to man page for install-mh and to INSTALL file
2998 about checking for global mh.profile.
3000 * Renamed m_find() to context_find().
3001 Renamed m_replace() to context_replace().
3002 Renamed m_delete() to context_del().
3003 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
3004 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
3005 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
3007 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
3008 adding message to folder itself.
3010 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
3011 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
3012 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
3015 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
3016 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
3019 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
3020 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
3021 is the same as the direct smtp code).
3023 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
3024 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
3026 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
3027 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
3028 code to use it yet).
3030 Thu Nov 13 18:42:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3032 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.
3034 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never
3035 called with a value larger than 30 mintues.
3037 * Fixed race condition in rmm and refile, so that
3038 context is updated before external rmmproc is called.
3040 * Removed all the OVERHEAD code.
3042 * Move code to add message to folder from refile.c
3045 Fri Jul 25 19:39:29 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3047 * Did some rearranging of the internals of inc.c.
3049 * Make -inplace the default for anno, forw, dist, and repl.
3051 * Changed --enable-smtp to --with-mts={smtp,sendmail}
3053 * Created new directory mts/sendmail for direct sendmail
3054 interface (although it currently still uses SMTP).
3056 * Removed all the TMA (trusted mail agent) code
3058 * Removed all the TTYD (terminal access daemon) code
3060 * Removed all the MF (uucp filtering) code.
3062 * Removed all the code for BERK.
3064 * Removed all the code for stand-alone delivery (MHMTS).
3066 * Split the file mts/sendmail/smail.c into sendmail.c and
3067 smtp.c. Changed the name of the directory to mts/smtp.
3069 * Changed autoconf to use @sysconfdir@ for location of
3070 configuration files.
3072 * Changed #define in mhn.c from FTP to BUILTIN_FTP.
3074 Mon Jul 21 03:22:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3076 * Released nmh-0.17.
3078 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
3080 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
3081 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
3083 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
3086 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
3087 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
3089 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
3090 number of refiled message.
3092 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
3094 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
3095 for return value of wait().
3097 * Change configure to also check /bin for "more".
3099 Sat Jul 12 00:02:23 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3101 * Released nmh-0.16.
3103 Mon Jun 23 20:13:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3105 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
3107 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
3108 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
3109 deal with binary messages, yet).
3111 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
3113 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
3115 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
3116 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
3117 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
3118 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
3119 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
3120 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
3122 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
3123 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
3125 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
3126 From MH-6.8.4 patch.
3128 * Fix double free of ctinfo in user_content when using
3129 #forw with single message. From John MacMillan (and
3132 * Changed -mhnproc switch for show, to -showmimeproc.
3134 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".
3136 * Added "mime" option to "whatnow", which calls the program
3137 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
3140 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
3143 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
3145 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
3146 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
3147 which used unsigned chars by default.
3149 Sat Jun 21 01:21:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3151 * Released nmh-0.15.
3153 * Added new form "scan.unseen" to distribution. It marks messages
3154 which are in any sequence in Unseen-Sequence.
3156 * Do some rearranging of date/time code in zotnet/tws/dtime.c
3158 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
3160 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
3163 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
3164 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
3165 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
3167 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
3168 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
3170 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
3172 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
3173 they conflict with defines on AIX.
3175 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
3176 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
3177 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
3178 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
3180 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
3181 and put in own subroutine.
3183 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
3184 and put in own subroutine.
3186 * Moved code to remove messages from folder into own
3187 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and
3188 refile.c to use new routine.
3190 Fri May 16 06:09:31 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3192 * Renamed m_seqok to seq_nameok.
3194 * Changed m_setunseen, msh, mshcmds, flist, and scan to use
3197 * Changed m_seqflag to return the number of a sequence rather
3198 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
3199 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
3201 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
3204 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before
3205 adding message to sequence.
3207 * Renamed function m_setvis to m_setunseen, and renamed
3208 corresponding file in sbr.
3210 * Renamed function m_setseq to m_setprev, and renamed corresponding
3213 * Changed mark.c and pick.c to use m_seqaddsel and m_seqdelsel.
3215 * Added new function m_seqdelsel to m_seqdel.c, which deletes
3216 all selected messages from a sequence.
3218 * Added new function m_seqaddsel to m_seqadd.c, which adds all
3219 selected messages to a sequence.
3221 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,
3224 Thu May 15 00:53:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3226 * Renamed function pack_folder to m_packfolder, and moved it
3227 from uip/folder.c into its own file sbr/m_packfolder.c
3229 Wed May 14 23:38:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3231 * Changed function m_gmsg to m_readfolder. Renamed file
3232 sbr/m_gmsg.c to sbr/m_readfolder.c.
3234 Mon May 5 19:57:11 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3236 * Expanded rcvtty man page, and added small patch from
3237 MH-6.8.4 distribution.

3241 * Released nmh-0.14.
3243 * Comment out configure test and code for tgetent to allocate its
3244 own termcap buffer when passed a NULL argument.
3246 Sat Apr 26 03:46:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3248 * Added new options `-checkmime', `-nocheckmime', and `-mhnproc'
3249 to show. Restructured code to handle options to various
3250 `procs' better. Deprecated `-noshowproc' option and NOMHNPROC
3251 environment variable.
3253 * Added new man page `mh-draft' which documents the
3254 draft folder facility in nmh.
3256 * Renamed fmtsbr.h to fmt_scan.h. Renamed fmtcompile.h
3259 * split fmtsbr.c into fmt_scan.c and fmt_new.c. Renamed
3260 fmtcompile.c to fmt_compile.c, and formataddr.c to
3263 * `send -help' wasn't showing the -(no)mime and -split
3266 Fri Apr 25 02:50:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3268 * Released nmh-0.13.
3270 * Changed mhpath so it doesn't abort if a message sequence
3271 such as "mhpath all" expands to more than 1000 messages.
3272 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
3273 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
3276 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
3277 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
3279 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3281 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if
3282 necessary. So `folders' can now handle more than 300 folders.
3284 Tue Apr 22 14:01:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3286 * Change configure to use a compile check to see if the tm struct
3287 has tm_gmtoff, rather than using egrep.
3289 Mon Apr 21 02:19:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3291 * Released nmh-0.12.
3293 * Had set_exists and unset_exists macros backwards.
3295 * Released nmh-0.11.
3297 Thu Apr 10 02:39:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3299 * Added documentation to mh-profile.man about the various
3300 `procs' (mhlproc, showproc, lproc, etc...).
3302 * Replace the bit twiddling for SELECTED, UNSEEN, and
3303 mp->attrstats with macros.
3305 * If system doesn't have SIGEMT (like Linux), then use SIGTERM
3308 * Change fstat to stat in m_gmsg.c since Linux wants
3311 * Merge Linux patch sent in by Michel Oosterhof (original
3312 patch from bsa@kf8nh.wariat.org).
3314 * Document an undocumented MH feature. mhn -form mhl.null
3315 will suppress the display of the message header.
3317 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
3319 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c
3320 and mshcmds.c, rather than hard coding in /bin/cat.
3322 * Add mhnproc to the list of `procs' in mh-profile.man.
3324 * Add configure test for lorder and tsort commands.
3326 * Commented out the padding in the `msgs` struct in h/mh.h
3328 * Change m_gmsg.c to allocate elements to the `info' array by
3329 500 elements at a time (rather than MAXFOLDERS / 5).
3331 * Add note to man page for mhmail that zero length messages are
3332 not sent. Need to use -body "" to send empty messages.
3334 * zotnet/mts/mts.c : compare character with '\0', not NULL.
3336 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
3338 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
3339 folder/message structure when done with folder.
3341 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is
3342 defined even if message is missing "From " line.

3356 The "From " line is now removed from all messages.
3358 * inc now saves the date from the "From " envelope in the
3359 Delivery-Date header for all messages.
3361 * sbr/m_getfld.c: Clean up processing of Return-Path and

3364 Mon Mar 17 19:03:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3366 * client.c: cast iaddr to int before comparing return value
3367 of inet_addr with NOTOK.
3369 Tue Mar 11 04:38:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3371 * Grep test for signal names was failing on some OS'es because
3372 of missing tabs in regex.

3401 * rcvtty.c : Changed to use #define UTMP_FILE (if exists) rather
3402 than hard coded "/etc/utmp".
3404 * Released nmh-0.08.
3406 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
3407 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of

3418 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
3419 rather than mmdf format.
3421 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
3422 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
3423 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with

3428 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3430 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
3433 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
3434 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
3435 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
3437 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
3438 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
3439 rcvpack so you can choose the preferred format.
3441 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3443 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
3444 can still easily change this in config.h).
3446 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
3447 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
3448 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
3450 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3452 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather
3453 than tzset and external timezone variable.
3455 Thu Feb 13 00:35:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3457 * Fixed typo in ruserpass.c in the variable toktabs.

3464 Tue Feb 11 01:29:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3466 * Add check to configure, so that if ruserpass, or _ruserpass
3467 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
3469 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
3470 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
3473 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
3474 built-in FTP client in mhn.

3487 * Released nmh-0.06.
3489 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
3490 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
3492 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
3493 many such machines around anymore.
3495 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
3496 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
3498 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
3499 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
3501 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3503 * Check lex generated file in zotnet/tws and use
3504 pre-generated version if necessary.
3506 * Released nmh-0.05.
3508 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
3509 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
3510 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
3511 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
3513 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
3514 be linked in one pass.
3516 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3518 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
3519 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
3521 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3523 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
3525 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3527 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
3528 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
3529 become the current folder.
3531 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3533 * Released nmh-0.04.

3538 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3540 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
3541 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
3542 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
3544 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3546 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
3547 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
3549 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3551 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
3552 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
3555 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
3556 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
3558 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3560 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
3561 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
3562 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
3563 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
3564 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
3565 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
3567 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3569 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
3570 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
3572 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
3573 a file (currently need to specify full path).
3575 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3577 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
3578 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
3580 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3582 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
3583 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
3584 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
3586 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3588 * Released nmh-0.03.
3590 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
3591 .mh_sequence file existed.
3593 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
3594 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
3596 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
3597 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
3600 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3602 * Changed flist option -unseen to -[no]all. Cleaned up
3605 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3607 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
3608 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
3609 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
3611 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3613 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
3614 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
3615 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
3617 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3619 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL
3620 and allocate its own buffer. Borrowed from zsh.
3622 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
3624 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3626 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
3627 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
3628 directory from where the source code is located.
3630 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3632 * Released nmh-0.02.
3634 Wed Jan 1 17:41:52 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

3639 Tue Dec 31 03:07:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3641 * Changed code to use strerror, rather than using sys_errlist
3642 and sys_nerr directly.

3646 * -compat switch from install-mh removed.
3648 * Changed the default POP port from "pop" to "pop3".
3650 Sat Dec 28 13:25:05 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3652 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
3653 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
3654 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
3655 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
3656 rather than in script.
3658 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3660 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
3662 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with
3663 macro defined on Solaris.
3665 Thu Dec 26 02:50:15 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3667 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
3668 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
3670 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
3671 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
3672 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
3673 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
3676 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3678 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
3679 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.
3681 * Fixed configure test so that termcap variable ospeed is
3684 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3686 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
3688 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included
3689 in mhn.c. Changed md5 to use memset and memcpy.
3691 Fri Dec 20 02:29:37 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3693 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
3694 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
3696 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3698 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
3699 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
3700 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
3701 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
3702 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
3703 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
3705 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3707 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
3709 * Released nmh-0.01.
3711 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
3712 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
3713 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
3716 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3718 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
3721 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3723 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
3724 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
3726 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3728 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
3729 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
3730 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
3731 script to find_program.
3733 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3735 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
3736 speed up -recurse option.
3738 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
3739 yet, but it compiles :-)
3741 * Changed default location for install to
3742 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
3743 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
3744 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
3747 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
3748 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
3749 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
